Recent Corporate Highlights
Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2021 Financial Results
Lipocine reported a net loss of $6.8 million, or ($0.08) per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared with a net loss of $6.4 million, or ($0.13) per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Research and development expenses were $1.5 million for the second quarter ended June 30 2021, compared with $2.3 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in contract research organization expense and outside consulting costs related to the LPCN 1144 Phase 2 LiFT clinical study in NASH subjects, a decrease in costs associated with TLANDO and a decrease in personnel expense, which was mainly due to a decrease in stock compensation and bonus expense. These decreases were offset by an increase in costs related to LPCN 1154 and LPCN 1107, as well as increases in other R&D expenses.
General and administrative expenses were $1.5 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared with $2.0 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in general and administrative was primarily related to a decrease in personnel costs, which was mainly due to a decrease in stock compensation and bonus expense, and a decrease in legal expenses. These decreases were offset by increases in corporate insurance and other general and administrative expenses.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $46.6 million of unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, and marketable investments, compared to $19.7 million of unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and marketable investment securities as of December 31, 2020.

Research and development expenses were $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared with $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

About Lipocine Inc.
Lipocine Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on metabolic and endocrine disorders using its proprietary drug delivery technologies. Lipocine's clinical development pipeline includes: TLANDO, LPCN 1144, TLANDO XR, LPCN 1148, LPCN 1154, and LPCN 1107. TLANDO, a novel oral prodrug of testosterone containing testosterone undecanoate, has received tentative approval from the FDA for conditions associated with a deficiency of endogenous testosterone, also known as hypogonadism, in adult males. LPCN 1144, an oral prodrug of bioidentical testosterone, recently completed a proof-of-concept clinical study demonstrating the potential utility in the treatment of non-cirrhotic NASH. LPCN 1144 is currently being studied in a Phase 2 clinical study. TLANDO XR, a novel oral prodrug of testosterone, originated and is being developed by Lipocine as a next-generation oral testosterone product with potential for once-daily dosing. In a phase 2 clinical evaluation when administered as once daily or twice daily TLANDO XR met the typical primary and secondary end points. LPCN 1148 is an oral prodrug of bioidentical testosterone targeted for the treatment of cirrhosis. LPCN 1154 is an oral neuro-steroid targeted for the treatment of post-partum depression. LPCN 1107 is potentially the first oral hydroxyprogesterone caproate product candidate indicated for the prevention of recurrent preterm birth and has been granted orphan drug designation by the FDA.
