Table of Contents
Our Business
We are an established leader and fully integrated provider of innovative imaging diagnostics, targeted therapeutics, and artificial intelligence solutions to Find, Fight and Follow serious medical conditions. Clinicians use our agents and products in echocardiography, nuclear imaging, and oncologic therapeutics. We believe that the resulting improved diagnostic information enables healthcare providers to better detect and characterize, or rule out, disease, potentially achieving better patient outcomes, reducing patient risk and limiting overall costs for payers and the entire healthcare system.
Our commercial products are used by cardiologists, nuclear medicine physicians, radiologists, oncologists, urologists, internal medicine physicians, technologists and sonographers working in a variety of clinical settings. We sell our products to radiopharmacies, integrated delivery networks, hospitals, clinics and group practices.
We produce and market our agents and products throughout the U.S., selling primarily to radiopharmacies, integrated delivery networks, hospitals, clinics and group practices. We sell our agents and products outside the U.S. through a combination of direct distribution in Canada and third-party distribution relationships in Europe, Canada, Australia, Asia-Pacific and Latin America.
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, we completed the evaluation of our operating and reporting structure, including the impact on our business of the acquisition of Progenics, and the sale of our Puerto Rico subsidiary in the first quarter, which resulted in a change in our operating segments to one reportable business segment.
PYLARIFY Approval and Commercial Launch
On May 27, 2021, we announced that the FDA had approved PYLARIFY, an F 18-labeled positron emission tomography (“PET”) imaging agent targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (“PSMA”). PYLARIFY enables the visualization of primary prostate tumors as well as bone and soft tissue metastases, with potential high clinical utility in the detection of recurrent and/or metastatic prostate cancer. The approval of PYLARIFY was based on data from two Company-sponsored pivotal studies (“OSPREY” and “CONDOR”) designed to establish the safety and diagnostic performance of PYLARIFY across the prostate cancer disease continuum. Results from OSPREY (Cohort A) demonstrated improvement in specificity and positive predictive value of PYLARIFY PET imaging over conventional imaging in men at risk for metastatic prostate cancer prior to initial definitive therapy. CONDOR studied men with biochemical recurrent prostate cancer. In patients with biochemical recurrent prostate cancer and non-informative baseline imaging, PYLARIFY demonstrated high correct localization and detection rates, including in patients with low prostate-specific antigen (“PSA”) blood level values (median PSA 0.8 ng/mL).
Upon approval, PYLARIFY was immediately available in parts of the U.S., such as the mid-Atlantic and the South. In July 2021, PYLARIFY availability expanded into additional regions, including the three largest metropolitan areas in the U.S. - New York, Los Angeles/San Diego and Chicago – as well as select locations in the Southeast, the Midwest, the Southwest and the Northwest. We expect PYLARIFY availability to continue to expand across the U.S. over the remainder of the year, with broad nationwide availability anticipated by year end.
The commercial launch of PYLARIFY is complex and expensive. We have hired and expect to continue to hire additional employees to assist us with the commercialization of PYLARIFY, including in sales, marketing, reimbursement, quality and medical affairs. To manufacture PYLARIFY, we have assembled and are qualifying a nationwide network of PMFs with radioisotope-producing cyclotrons that make fluorine-18, which has a 110 minute half-life, so PYLARIFY is manufactured and distributed rapidly to end-users. After being made on a cyclotron at a PMF, the F 18 is then combined with certain chemical ingredients in specially designed chemistry synthesis boxes to manufacture PYLARIFY, which is then transferred to a radiopharmacist who prepares and dispenses patient-specific doses of the final product. Because each of the PMFs manufacturing these products is deemed by the FDA to be a separate manufacturing site, each has to be approved by the FDA. Although we are able to provide PYLARIFY in the regions listed above, we can give no assurance that the FDA will continue to approve PMFs in accordance with our planned roll-out schedule. If FDA approval of manufacturing sites is delayed, our future business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected.
In addition, obtaining adequate reimbursement for PYLARIFY will be critical, including not only coverage from Medicare, Medicaid and other government payors, as well as private payors, but also appropriate payment levels, which adequately cover the manufacturing and distribution costs associated with an F 18-based agent. We can give no assurance that pass-through status will be granted or that other adequate reimbursement can be secured to allow PYLARIFY to become successfully commercialized.
Key Factors Affecting Our Results
Our 2021 financial performance will reflect full year results of the Progenics business, whereas the prior year only incorporated results since the Closing Date. We also expect that the approval of PYLARIFY in May 2021 and subsequent launch will result in increased revenues.

Our business and financial performance have been, and continue to be, affected by the following:
COVID-19 Pandemic
The global COVID-19 pandemic has had, and may continue to have, a material impact on our business. Towards the end of the first quarter of 2020 we began to experience, and through the date of this filing we are continuing to experience, impacts to our business and operations related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of stay-at-home mandates and advisories, and a decline in the volume of certain procedures and treatments using our products.
For example, there has been a substantial reduction in pulmonary ventilation studies in which our product, Xenon, is used because of institutional concerns and professional society guidelines relating to the possible spread of COVID-19 to technicians and other patients, given that Xenon is both inhaled and exhaled by the patient. As a result, Xenon sales have decreased significantly. In March 2021, the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Medical Imaging (“SNMMI”), updated its guidance regarding in-hospital respiratory inhalation procedures administered (or performed) during the pandemic, modifying its previous position. Based on advances in testing and procedural protocols since the onset of the pandemic as well as increasing vaccination rates, SNMMI now allows that under appropriate conditions for safe administration, pulmonary ventilation studies can be performed where necessary to reach a definitive diagnosis for a patient. Notwithstanding this change in March 2021, our Xenon sales during the second quarter of 2021 continued to be at reduced levels, and we expect these reduced levels to continue for at least as long as COVID-19 precautions remain in place. We can give no assurance that Xenon sales will return to historic levels.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we undertook a thorough analysis of all our discretionary expenses. In the first quarter of 2020, we implemented certain cost reduction initiatives. For most of the second quarter of 2020, we reduced our work week from five days to four days and reduced the pay for our personnel by varying amounts, depending on level of seniority.
During the second quarter of 2020, Progenics also implemented certain cost reduction initiatives, and new enrollment in the Phase 2 trial of 1095 in mCRPC patients was paused to minimize the risk to subjects and healthcare providers during the pandemic. New enrollment in that study restarted in October 2020.
GE Healthcare, our development and commercialization partner for flurpiridaz F 18, also delayed enrollment in the second Phase 3 clinical trial because of the pandemic and resumed enrollment in the third quarter of 2020.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic appears to have begun to recede in much of the United States, the pandemic could still have a future negative impact on the Company's business, particularly if there is a resurgence as a result of mutations or other variations to the virus, which increase its communicability or its impact on certain populations.
While we are currently unable to estimate the impact of COVID-19 on our overall 2021 operations and financial results, we ended the second quarter of 2021 with $91.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. With our available liquidity and prudent expense management, we currently believe that we have sufficient financial resources to operate our business, support our customers, launch PYLARIFY as a new commercial product, and support the continued development of our product candidate pipeline, although we can give no assurances that we will have sufficient liquidity for all of these items, as the future trajectory of the pandemic is unknown and may affect our liquidity.
Anticipated Continued Growth of DEFINITY and Expansion of Our Ultrasound Microbubble Franchise
We believe the market opportunity for our ultrasound microbubble enhancing agent, DEFINITY, continues to be significant. DEFINITY has been our fastest growing and highest margin commercial product. We anticipate DEFINITY sales will continue to grow in the future. As we continue to educate the physician and healthcare provider community about the benefits and risks of DEFINITY, we believe we will be able to continue to grow the appropriate use of DEFINITY in suboptimal echocardiograms. In a U.S. market with three echocardiography ultrasound enhancing agents approved by the FDA, we estimate that DEFINITY had over 80% of the market as of December 31, 2020.
As we continue to pursue expanding our microbubble franchise, our activities include:
• Patents - We continue to actively pursue additional patents in connection with DEFINITY and DEFINITY RT, both in the U.S. and internationally. In the U.S. for DEFINITY, we now own a total of four Orange Book-listed method of use patents, one of which expires in 2035 and three of which expire in 2037, as well as additional manufacturing patents that are not Orange Book-listed expiring in 2023 and 2037. In the U.S. for DEFINITY RT, we now own a total of five Orange Book-listed patents, including a composition of matter patent which expires in 2035. Outside of the U.S., while our original DEFINITY patent protection and regulatory exclusivity have generally expired, we are currently prosecuting additional DEFINITY and DEFINITY RT patents to obtain similar patent protection as in the U.S. The Orange Book-listed patents include a patent on the use of VIALMIX RFID which expires in 2037; additional VIALMIX RFID patent applications have been submitted in major markets throughout the world.

Table of Contents
Hatch-Waxman Act - Even though our longest duration Orange Book-listed DEFINITY patent extends until March 2037, because our Orange Book-listed composition of matter patent expired in June 2019, we may face generic DEFINITY challengers in the near to intermediate term. Under the Hatch-Waxman Act, the FDA can approve Abbreviated New Drug Applications (“ANDAs”) for generic versions of drugs if the ANDA applicant demonstrates, among other things, that (i) its generic candidate is the same as the innovator product by establishing bioequivalence and providing relevant chemistry, manufacturing and product data, and (ii) the marketing of that generic candidate does not infringe an Orange Book-listed patent or that an Orange Book-listed patent is invalid. With respect to any Orange Book-listed patent covering the innovator product, the ANDA applicant must give a notice to the innovator (a “Notice”) that the ANDA applicant certifies that its generic candidate will not infringe the innovator’s Orange Book-listed patent or that the Orange Book-listed patent is invalid. The innovator can then challenge the ANDA applicant in court within 45 days of receiving that Notice, and FDA approval to commercialize the generic candidate will be stayed (that is, delayed) for up to 30 months (measured from the date on which a Notice is received) while the patent dispute between the innovator and the ANDA applicant is resolved in court. The 30-month stay could potentially expire sooner if the courts determine that no infringement had occurred or that the challenged Orange Book-listed patent is invalid or if the parties otherwise settle their dispute.
As of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not received any Notice from an ANDA applicant. If we were to (i) receive any such Notice in the future, (ii) bring a patent infringement suit against the ANDA applicant within 45 days of receiving that Notice, and (iii) successfully obtain the full 30-month stay, then the ANDA applicant would be precluded from commercializing a generic version of DEFINITY prior to the expiration of that 30-month stay period and, potentially, thereafter, depending on how the patent dispute is resolved. Solely by way of example and not based on any knowledge we currently have, if we received a Notice from an ANDA applicant in August 2021 and the full 30-month stay was obtained, then the ANDA applicant would be precluded from commercialization until at least February 2024. If we received a Notice some number of months in the future and the full 30-month stay was obtained, the commercialization date would roll forward in the future by the same calculation.
• DEFINITY RT - In November 2020, the FDA approved our supplemental new drug application (“sNDA”) for DEFINITY RT. DEFINITY RT is a modified formulation of DEFINITY that allows both storage and shipment at room temperature (DEFINITY’s previously approved formulation requires refrigerated storage). The modified formulation provides clinicians an additional choice and allows for greater utility of this formulation in broader clinical settings. We believe DEFINITY RT will become commercially available later in 2021, although that timing cannot be assured. Given its physical characteristics, we believe DEFINITY RT is also well-suited for inclusion in kits requiring microbubbles for other indications and applications (including in kits developed by third parties of the type described in the paragraph entitled New Clinical Applications below).
• Vialmix RFID – In August 2020, we announced the FDA approved our sNDA for our next-generation activation device designed specifically for both DEFINITY and DEFINITY RT. The activation rate and time are controlled by VIALMIX RFID through the use of radio-frequency identification technology (“RFID”) to ensure reproducible activation of DEFINITY and DEFINITY RT. The RFID tag, which is affixed to the vial label, enables the DEFINITY or DEFINITY RT vial to be appropriately activated when utilized with the VIALMIX RFID activation device. We believe VIALMIX RFID will become available later in 2021, although that timing cannot be assured.
• New Clinical Applications - As we continue to look for other opportunities to expand our microbubble franchise, we are evaluating new indications and clinical applications beyond echocardiography and ultrasound enhancing agent imaging generally.
• In April 2019, we announced a strategic development and commercial collaboration with Cerevast Medical, Inc. (“Cerevast”) in which our microbubble will be used in connection with Cerevast’s ocular ultrasound device to improve blood flow in occluded retinal veins in the eye. Retinal vein occlusion is one of the most common causes of vision loss worldwide.
• In December 2019, we announced a strategic commercial supply agreement with CarThera for the use of our microbubbles in combination with SonoCloud, a proprietary implantable device in development for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma. Glioblastoma is a lethal and devastating form of brain cancer with median survival of 15 months after diagnosis.
• In October 2020, we announced a strategic collaboration with Insightec Ltd. (“Insightec”) which will use our microbubbles in connection with the development of Insightec’s transcranial guided focused ultrasound device for the treatment of glioblastoma as well as other neurodegenerative conditions.
• In April 2021, we announced a strategic collaboration with Allegheny Health Network (“AHN”) which will use our microbubbles in combination with AHN’s ultrasound-assisted non-viral gene transfer technology for the development of a proposed treatment of xerostomia. Xerostomia is a lack of saliva production leading to dry mouth and has a variety of causes, including radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the chronic use of drugs and rheumatic and dysmetabolic diseases.

• In-House Manufacturing - We have completed construction of specialized, in-house manufacturing capabilities at our North Billerica, Massachusetts facility for DEFINITY and, potentially, other sterile vial products. We believe this investment will allow us to better control DEFINITY manufacturing and inventory, reduce our costs in a potentially more price competitive environment, and provide us with supply chain redundancy. We currently expect to have DEFINITY manufactured at this facility commercially available in early 2022, although that timing cannot be assured.
• DEFINITY in China - In March 2020 in connection with our Chinese development and distribution arrangement with Double-Crane Pharmaceutical Company (“Double-Crane”), we filed an Import Drug License application with the National Medical Products Administration, or the NMPA, for the use of DEFINITY for the echocardiography indication. We believe this is an important milestone in our efforts to commercialize DEFINITY in China. Double-Crane is also in the process of analyzing the clinical results relating to the liver and kidney indications and will also work with us to prepare an Import Drug License application for those indications.
Global Mo-99 Supply
We currently have Mo-99 supply agreements with Institute for Radioelements (“IRE”), running through December 31, 2022, and renewable by us on a year-to-year basis thereafter, and with NTP Radioisotopes (“NTP”) and the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (“ANSTO”), running through December 31, 2021. We also have a Xenon supply agreement with IRE which runs through June 30, 2022, and which is subject to further extension.
Although we have a globally diverse Mo-99 supply with IRE in Belgium, NTP in South Africa, and ANSTO in Australia, we still face supplier and logistical challenges in our Mo-99 supply chain. The NTP processing facility had periodic outages in 2017, 2018 and 2019. When NTP was not producing, we relied on Mo-99 supply from both IRE and ANSTO to limit the impact of the NTP outages. In 2019 and 2020, ANSTO experienced multiple facility issues that resulted in ANSTO outages and volume limitations, during which time we relied on IRE and NTP to limit the impact of those outages and limitations. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced challenges receiving regularly scheduled orders of Mo-99 from our global suppliers, particularly in the second quarter of 2020. We continue to manage these various supply chain challenges, but depending on reactor and processor schedules and operations, at times we have not been able to fill some or all of the demand for our TechneLite generators on certain manufacturing days. A prolonged disruption of service from one of our three Mo-99 processing sites or one of their main Mo-99-producing reactors could have a substantial negative effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
We are also pursuing additional sources of Mo-99 from potential new producers to further augment our current supply. In November 2014, we entered into a strategic arrangement with SHINE for the future supply of Mo-99. Under the terms of the supply agreement, SHINE will provide Mo-99 produced using its proprietary LEU-solution technology for use in our TechneLite generators once SHINE’s facility becomes operational and receives all necessary regulatory approvals, which SHINE now estimates will occur in late 2022. However, we cannot assure you that SHINE or any other possible additional sources of Mo-99 will result in commercial quantities of Mo-99 for our business, or that these new suppliers together with our current suppliers will be able to deliver a sufficient quantity of Mo-99 to meet our needs.
Inventory Supply
We obtain a substantial portion of our imaging agents from a third-party supplier. JHS is currently our sole source manufacturer of DEFINITY, NEUROLITE, Cardiolite and evacuation vials, the latter being an ancillary component for our TechneLite generators. We are currently seeking approval from certain foreign regulatory authorities for JHS to manufacture certain of our products. Until we receive these approvals, we will face continued limitations on where we can sell those products outside of the U.S. In addition to JHS, we rely on SBL as our sole source manufacturer of DEFINITY RT. Our manufacturing agreement with JHS relating to DEFINITY expires in February 2022, and our manufacturing agreements relating to NEUROLITE and Cardiolite expire in December 2023. All these agreements are subject to further extension.
We have also completed construction of specialized, in-house manufacturing capabilities at our North Billerica, Massachusetts facility, which will also allow us to optimize our costs and reduce our supply chain risk. We currently expect to have DEFINITY manufactured at this facility commercially available in early 2022, although that timing cannot be assured.
Radiopharmaceuticals are decaying radioisotopes with half-lives ranging from a few hours to several days. These products cannot be kept in inventory because of their limited shelf lives and are subject to just-in-time manufacturing, processing and distribution, which takes place at our facilities in North Billerica, Massachusetts and Somerset, New Jersey.
Integration of the Progenics Acquisition
On June 19, 2020, we completed the Progenics Acquisition. Progenics’ portfolio of products and product candidates included, among other things, therapeutic agents designed to target cancer (AZEDRA, 1095 and PSMA TTC), diagnostic imaging agents designed to target PSMA for prostate cancer (PYLARIFY and 1404), RELISTOR for opioid-induced constipation, AI imaging
27
Table of Contents
technologies and leronlimab being developed for HIV infection. Progenics’ revenue was generated from two principal sources: first, royalties and development and commercial milestones from strategic partnerships, including royalties from Bausch Health Companies, Inc. (“Bausch”) from sales of RELISTOR; and second, AZEDRA sales.
The ultimate success of the Progenics Acquisition will depend on our ability to successfully combine the business of Progenics with our own and realize the anticipated benefits, including synergies, cost savings, innovation and operational efficiencies and revenue growth from the acquisition.
Our combined business is now larger and significantly more complex than our business was immediately prior to the consummation of the Progenics Acquisition. Our ability to successfully manage this combined business will depend upon our ability to continue to integrate and manage the combined business with its increased scale and scope, and increased costs and complexity. In addition, the CVRs issued as partial consideration for the Progenics Acquisition create additional operational obligations and accounting complexity. See Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors - The CVRs we issued as part of the Progenics Acquisition may result in substantial future payments and could divert the attention of our management; in addition, the actual payments made in connection with the CVRs, if any, may not be consistent with the estimated fair value of the CVRs that we are required to prepare for accounting purposes.” We can give no assurance that the actual amounts paid, if any, in connection with the CVRs will be consistent with any recurring fair value estimate of such CVRs.
Research and Development Expenses
To remain a leader in the marketplace, we have historically made substantial investments in new product development, including, among other things, our flurpiridaz F 18 clinical development program, the expenses of which are now being borne by GE Healthcare. The Progenics Acquisition resulted in additional and substantial clinical development expense. The PyL NDA filed with the FDA on September 29, 2020, was approved by the FDA in May 2021. For 1095, the ARROW Phase 2 study in mCRPC patients had been paused to minimize risk to subjects and healthcare providers during the pandemic, and new enrollment in that study restarted in October 2020. We also are planning additional clinical development work for AZEDRA in two new potential therapeutic indications – neuroblastoma and gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors – and LMI 1195 as a diagnostic agent for the management of neuroblastoma. In addition, the Company has developed PSMA AI as described below under the heading “New Initiatives”. Our investments in these additional clinical activities will increase our operating expenses and impact our results of operations and cash flow, and we can give no assurances as to whether any of these clinical development candidates will be approved.
New Initiatives
In addition to integrating the new assets and programs resulting from the Progenics Acquisition, we continue to seek ways to further expand our portfolio of products and product candidates and how best to optimize the value of our current assets, evaluating a number of different opportunities to collaborate with others or to acquire or in-license additional products, product candidates, businesses and technologies to drive our future growth. Consistent with the Progenics Acquisition, we are particularly interested in expanding our presence in oncology, in both radiotherapeutics and diagnostics.
• In May 2019, we commenced an initiative to build out our Pharma Services capabilities, which resides in our strategic partnerships and other revenue product category, by entering into a strategic collaboration and license agreement with NanoMab, a privately-held biopharmaceutical company focusing on the development of next generation radiopharmaceuticals for cancer precision medicine. We believe this collaboration will provide the first broadly-available PD-L1 imaging biomarker research tool to pharmaceutical companies and academic centers conducting clinical trials on immuno-oncology treatments, including combination therapies.
• In March 2021, we acquired from Ratio Therapeutics LLC (“Ratio”) (previously Noria Therapeutics, Inc.) exclusive, worldwide rights to NTI-1309, an innovative imaging biomarker that targets fibroblast activation protein (“FAP”), an emerging target with broad potential imaging applicability and use in oncology. Under the terms of this agreement, Ratio will drive the early clinical development of NTI-1309. We are integrating NTI-1309 into our portfolio of imaging biomarkers as part of our Pharma Services offering. Upon further clinical development, we will assess options to bring NTI-1309 to market as a diagnostic or potentially a therapeutic agent.
• We have also expanded our Pharma Services offering to include piflufolastat F 18 for pharmaceutical companies developing PSMA-targeted therapies and have entered into clinical supply agreements with each of Regeneron, Bayer and POINT BioPharma for use of piflufolastat F 18 in prostate cancer drug development programs.
• Our subsidiary, EXINI Diagnostics AB (“EXINI”), has developed aPROMISE, our artificial intelligence-based, deep learning-enabled, medical device software that is designed to allow healthcare professionals and researchers to perform quantitative assessments of PSMA PET/CT in oncology.
We can give no assurance as to when or if any of these Pharma Services collaborations will be successful or accretive to earnings.

________________________________
(1) The Company reclassified rebates and allowances of $3.5 million and $8.2 million within each product category, which included $3.2 million and $7.5 million for DEFINITY, $0.3 million and $0.6 million for TechneLite and zero and $0.1 million for other precision diagnostics for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
The increase in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year period, is primarily driven by increases in DEFINITY and TechneLite volume period over period as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior year and the addition of the Progenics product portfolio, offset, in part, by the divestiture of our Puerto Rico business during the first quarter of 2021.
The increase in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year period, is primarily driven by increases in DEFINITY and TechneLite volume period over period as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior year and the addition of the Progenics product portfolio. This increase is partially offset by continued COVID-19 related reduced volumes in Xenon and the divestiture of our Puerto Rico business during the first quarter of fiscal year 2021.
Rebates and Allowances
Estimates for rebates and allowances represent our estimated obligations under contractual arrangements with third parties. Rebate accruals and allowances are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction to revenue and the establishment of a liability which is included in accrued expenses. These rebates and allowances result from performance-based offers that are primarily based on attaining contractually specified sales volumes and growth, Medicaid rebate programs for our products, administrative fees of group purchasing organizations and certain distributor related commissions. The calculation of the accrual for these rebates and allowances is based on an estimate of the third-party’s buying patterns and the resulting applicable contractual rebate to be earned over a contractual period.
An analysis of the amount of, and change in, reserves is summarized as follows:
(in thousands) Rebates and
Allowances
Balance, January 1, 2021 $ 9,350
Provision related to current period revenues 13,011
Adjustments relating to prior period revenues 37
Payments or credits made during the period (13,218)
Balance, June 30, 2021 $ 9,180
Gross Profit
The increase in gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to DEFINITY volume increases, which is partially offset by amortization expense of assets acquired in the Progenics Acquisition.
The increase in gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to DEFINITY volume increases and an asset impairment loss of $7.3 million on other nuclear products that occurred in the prior year. This increase was offset, in part, by lower Xenon unit volumes and increased radioisotope transportation costs, both due to COVID-19, as well as amortization expense of assets acquired in the Progenics Acquisition.

Table of Contents
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and other related costs for personnel in field sales, marketing and customer service functions. Other costs in sales and marketing expenses include the development and printing of advertising and promotional material, professional services, market research and sales meetings.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $11.3 million and $15.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. This was primarily driven by the integration of the Progenics sales and marketing organization, preparation activities for the launch of PYLARIFY, as well as increased employee-related costs and marketing promotional programs due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic during the prior year.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and other related costs for personnel in executive, finance, legal, information technology and human resource functions. Other costs included in general and administrative expenses are professional fees for information technology services, external legal fees, consulting and accounting services as well as bad debt expense, certain facility and insurance costs, including director and officer liability insurance.
General and administrative expenses increased $22.5 million and $21.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the prior year period. This was primarily driven by the $25.6 million fair value adjustment to the contingent asset and liabilities in the second quarter of 2021 (refer to Note 4, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, for further details on contingent consideration liabilities, including CVRs) and higher headcount related costs following the Progenics Acquisition, offset by acquisition-related costs associated with the Progenics Acquisition in the prior year.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses relate primarily to the development of new products to add to our portfolio and costs related to our medical affairs, medical information and regulatory functions.
Research and development expenses increased $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period. This was primarily driven by the integration of the Progenics research and development organization now supporting our pipeline, which includes 1095 and preparation activities for the launch of PYLARIFY.
Research and development expenses increased $14.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period. This was primarily driven by the integration of the Progenics research and development organization now supporting our pipeline, which includes 1095, preparation activities for the launch of PYLARIFY and higher employee-related costs due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic during the prior year period.
Gain on Sale of Assets
We sold 100% of the stock of our Puerto Rico radiopharmacy subsidiary resulting in a pre-tax book gain of $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by approximately $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period due to the Royalty-Backed loan we assumed as part of the Progenics Acquisition.
Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we realized a $0.9 million gain on extinguishment of debt related to the voluntary repayment of the outstanding principal on the Royalty-Backed Loan on March 31, 2021.
Income Tax (Benefit) Expense
The income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to the tax benefit of a pre-tax loss reported during the quarter.
The income tax expense recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to the tax benefit of a pre-tax loss reported during the period, offset by the accrual of interest associated with uncertain tax positions and the impact of permanent item adjustments including the accrual of our contingent consideration liabilities.

Table of Contents
We regularly assess our ability to realize our deferred tax assets. Assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets requires significant management judgment. In determining whether our deferred tax assets are more-likely-than-not realizable, we evaluate all available positive and negative evidence, and weigh the objective evidence and expected impact. We continue to record a valuation allowance against certain of our foreign net deferred tax assets and a small component of our domestic deferred tax assets.
Our effective tax rate for each reporting period is presented as follows:
Six Months Ended
June 30,
2021 2020
Effective tax rate (24.3)% (213.0)%
Our effective tax rate in fiscal 2021 differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% principally due to state income taxes and the tax benefits created by stock compensation expense and tax credits.
The decrease in the effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily due to the increased amount of pre-tax earnings achieved through six months when compared to the prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
The following table provides information regarding our cash flows:
Six Months Ended
June 30,
(in thousands) 2021 2020
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 35,687 $ 7,252
Net cash provided by investing activities $ 10,647 $ 2,609
Net cash used in financing activities $ (35,506) $ (10,218)
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $35.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was driven primarily by a change in fair value of contingent assets and liabilities of $25.9 million (refer to Note 4, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, for further details on contingent consideration liabilities, including CVRs), depreciation, amortization and accretion expense of $17.7 million, stock-based compensation expense of $7.9 million, deferred income taxes of $2.7 million and a net increase of $11.5 million related to movements in our working capital accounts during the period. The overall increases in cash from our working capital accounts were primarily driven by an increase in sales collections, the timing of payments to large vendors, a reduction in inventory due to obsolescence as well as the timing of inventory purchases. These net sources of cash were offset by a net loss of $17.6 million and a gain on sale of assets of $15.3 million.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $7.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven primarily by depreciation, amortization and accretion expense of $7.8 million, impairment of long-lived assets of $7.3 million, stock-based compensation expense of $6.5 million, and changes in deferred taxes of $1.1 million. These net sources of cash were offset by a net loss of $3.7 million and a net decrease of $14.4 million related to movements in our working capital accounts during the period. The overall decreases in cash from our working capital accounts were primarily driven by the payment of prior year annual bonuses as well as change in inventory related to COVID-19 impact on products and the timing of batch processes.
Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to cash proceeds of $15.8 million received from the sale of our Puerto Rico subsidiary, which was offset by $5.2 million of capital expenditures.
Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 reflected $17.6 million of acquired cash related to the non-cash acquisition of Progenics offset by $10.0 million in lending on a note receivable to Progenics prior to the acquisition and $5.0 million in capital expenditures.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to the payments on long-term debt and other borrowings of $38.1 million related to the 2019 Term Facility and Royalty-Backed Loan, including a voluntary repayment of the outstanding principal on the Royalty-Backed Loan and payments for minimum statutory tax withholding related to net share settlement of equity awards of $1.8 million offset by proceeds of $4.1 million from stock option exercises.
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily attributable to the payments on long-term debt and other borrowings of $7.0 million related to the 2019 Term Facility and Royalty-Backed Loan and payments for minimum statutory tax withholding related to net share settlement of equity awards of $2.0 million.
External Sources of Liquidity
In June 2019, we refinanced our 2017 $275.0 million five-year term loan facility with the 2019 Term Facility. In addition, we replaced our $75.0 million revolving facility with our five-year revolving credit facility (the “2019 Revolving Facility” and, together with the 2019 Term Facility, the “2019 Facility”). The terms of the 2019 Facility are set forth in the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 27, 2019, by and among us, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent. We have the right to request an increase to the 2019 Term Facility or request the establishment of one or more new incremental term loan facilities, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million, plus additional amounts, in certain circumstances.
33
Table of Contents
We are permitted to voluntarily repay the 2019 Term Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. The 2019 Term Facility requires us to make mandatory prepayments of the outstanding 2019 Term Loans in certain circumstances. The 2019 Term Facility amortizes at 5.0% per year through September 30, 2022 and 7.5% thereafter, until its June 27, 2024 maturity date.
Under the terms of the 2019 Revolving Facility, the lenders thereunder agreed to extend credit to us from time to time until June 27, 2024 consisting of revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $200.0 million at any time outstanding. The 2019 Revolving Facility includes a $20.0 million sub-facility for the issuance of Letters of Credit. The 2019 Revolving Facility includes a $10.0 million sub-facility for Swingline Loans. The Letters of Credit, Swingline Loans and the borrowings under the 2019 Revolving Facility are expected to be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Please refer to our Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 for further details on the 2019 Facility.
On June 19, 2020, we amended our 2019 Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations and the near-term higher level of indebtedness resulting from our decision not to immediately repay the Progenics debt secured by the RELISTOR royalties following the Progenics Acquisition.
The Amendment provides for, among other things, modifications to our financial maintenance covenants. The covenant related to Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) was waived from the date of the Amendment through December 31, 2020. The maximum total net leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio permitted by the financial covenant is displayed in the table below:
2020 Amended Credit Agreement
Period Total Net Leverage Ratio
Q2 2021 3.75 to 1.00
Thereafter 3.50 to 1.00
Period Interest Coverage Ratio
Q2 2021 and thereafter 3.00 to 1.00
As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants under the Amendment.
For the period beginning on the date of the Amendment and ending on the Adjustment Date (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2021, loans under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.25% or the Base Rate plus 2.25%. On and after the Adjustment Date for the fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2021, loans bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread that ranges from 1.50% to 3.00% or the Base Rate plus a spread that ranges from 0.50% to 2.00%, in each case based on our Total Net Leverage Ratio.
The commitment fee applicable to the Revolving Facility was 0.50% until the Adjustment Date for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2021. On and after the Adjustment Date for the fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2021, the commitment fee ranges from 0.15% to 0.40% based on our Total Net Leverage Ratio.
On June 19, 2020, as a result of the Progenics Acquisition, we assumed Progenics outstanding debt as of such date in the amount of $40.2 million. Progenics, through a wholly-owned subsidiary MNTX Royalties Sub LLC (“MNTX Royalties”), entered into a $50.0 million loan agreement (the “Royalty-Backed Loan”) with a fund managed by HealthCare Royalty Partners III, L.P. (“HCRP”) on November 4, 2016. Under the terms of the Royalty-Backed Loan, the lenders had no recourse to Progenics or any of its assets other than the right to receive royalty payments from the commercial sales of RELISTOR products owed under Progenics’ license agreement with Salix Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bausch. The RELISTOR royalty payments were used to repay the principal and interest on the loan. The Royalty-Backed Loan bore interest at a per annum rate of 9.5% and matured on June 30, 2025. On June 22, 2020, HCRP waived the automatic acceleration of the Royalty-Backed Loan that otherwise would have been triggered by the consummation of the Progenics Acquisition and MNTX Royalties agreed not to prepay the loan until after December 31, 2020.
On March 31, 2021, we voluntarily repaid in full the entire outstanding principal on the Royalty-Backed Loan in the amount of $30.9 million, which included a prepayment amount of $0.5 million, and terminated the agreement.
Our ability to fund our future capital needs will be affected by our ability to continue to generate cash from operations and may be affected by our ability to access the capital markets, money markets or other sources of funding, as well as the capacity and terms of our financing arrangements.
34
Table of Contents
We may from time to time repurchase or otherwise retire our debt and take other steps to reduce our debt or otherwise improve our balance sheet. These actions may include prepayments of our term loans or other retirements or refinancing of outstanding debt, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amount of debt that may be retired, if any, could be material and would be decided at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on market conditions, our cash position and other considerations.
Funding Requirements
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
• The level of product sales and the pricing environment of our currently marketed products, particularly DEFINITY and any additional products that we may market in the future, including decreased product sales resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic;
• Revenue mix shifts and associated volume and selling price changes that could result from contractual status changes with key customers and additional competition;
• The costs of the PYLARIFY commercial launch and our ability to successfully commercialize PYLARIFY;
• The costs of acquiring or in-licensing, developing, obtaining regulatory approval for, and commercializing, new products, businesses or technologies, together with the costs of pursuing opportunities that are not eventually consummated;
• Our investment in the further clinical development and commercialization of products and development candidates, including AZEDRA, PYLARIFY, 1095, LMI 1195, aBSI and PSMA AI;
• The costs of investing in our facilities, equipment and technology infrastructure;
• The costs and timing of establishing manufacturing and supply arrangements for commercial supplies of our products and raw materials and components;
• Our ability to have product manufactured and released from JHS and other manufacturing sites in a timely manner in the future;
• The costs of further commercialization of our existing products, particularly in international markets, including product marketing, sales and distribution and whether we obtain local partners to help share such commercialization costs;
• The extent to which we choose to establish collaboration, co-promotion, distribution or other similar arrangements for our marketed products;
• The legal costs relating to maintaining, expanding and enforcing our intellectual property portfolio, pursuing insurance or other claims and defending against product liability, regulatory compliance or other claims; and
• The cost of interest on any additional borrowings which we may incur under our financing arrangements.
Until we successfully become dual sourced for our principal products, we are vulnerable to future supply shortages. Disruption in our financial performance could also occur if we experience significant adverse changes in product or customer mix, broad economic downturns, adverse industry or company conditions or catastrophic external events, including pandemics such as COVID-19, natural disasters and political or military conflict. If we experience one or more of these events in the future, we may be required to further implement expense reductions, such as a delay or elimination of discretionary spending in all functional areas, as well as scaling back select operating and strategic initiatives.
If our capital resources become insufficient to meet our future capital requirements, we would need to finance our cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, assets securitizations, sale-leasebacks or other financing or strategic alternatives, to the extent such transactions are permissible under the covenants of our Credit Agreement. Additional equity or debt financing, or other transactions, may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If any of these transactions require an amendment or waiver under the covenants in our Credit Agreement, which could result in additional expenses associated with obtaining the amendment or waiver, we will seek to obtain such a waiver to remain in compliance with those covenants. However, we cannot be assured that such an amendment or waiver would be granted, or that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
At June 30, 2021, our only current committed external source of funds is our borrowing availability under our 2019 Revolving Facility. We had $91.5 million of cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2021. Our 2019 Facility, as amended, contains a number of affirmative, negative, reporting and financial covenants, in each case subject to certain exceptions and materiality thresholds. Incremental borrowings under the 2019 Revolving Facility, as amended, may affect our ability to comply with the covenants in the 2019 Facility, as amended, including the financial covenants restricting consolidated net leverage and interest coverage. Accordingly, we may be limited in utilizing the full amount of our 2019 Revolving Facility, as amended, as a source of liquidity.

Table of Contents
The CVRs we issued in the Progenics Acquisition entitle holders thereof to future cash payments of 40% of PYLARIFY net sales over (i) $100.0 million in 2022 and (ii) $150.0 million in 2023, which, if payable, we currently intend to fund from our then-available cash. In no event will our aggregate payments under the CVRs, together with any other non-stock consideration treated as paid in connection with the Progenics Acquisition, exceed 19.9% (which we estimate could be approximately $100.0 million) of the total consideration we pay in the Progenics Acquisition. Refer to Note 4, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, for further details on contingent consideration liabilities.
Based on our current operating plans, including our prudent expense management in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, results of operations and availability under our 2019 Revolving Facility, as amended, will be sufficient to continue to fund our liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and other financial information. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. In addition, our reported financial condition and results of operations could vary due to a change in the application of a particular accounting standard.
There have been no other significant changes to our critical accounting policies or in the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates used in such policies in the six months ended June 30, 2021. For further information, refer to our summary of significant accounting policies and estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are required to provide the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Massachusetts Department of Public Health financial assurance demonstrating our ability to fund the decommissioning of our North Billerica, Massachusetts production facility upon closure, though we do not intend to close the facility. We have provided this financial assurance in the form of a $28.2 million surety bond.
Since inception, we have not engaged in any other off-balance sheet arrangements, including structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Part II, Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our exposures to market risk have not changed materially since December 31, 2020.
