Trimel Provides Corporate Update and First Quarter 2014 Financial Results

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 8, 2014) - Trimel Pharmaceuticals Corporation (TSX:TRL) today provided an overview of its corporate accomplishments and reported financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2014.

2014 Corporate Developments

As previously communicated, the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") review of CompleoTRT™ is progressing and is in its final stages. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Company expects to obtain a final decision regarding marketing approval in late May 2014.

With respect to the ongoing Phase II clinical trial for Tefina™, a product being developed for the treatment of Female Orgasmic Disorder, the last patient enrolled in the study has now completed the applicable treatment protocol. Full database lock is scheduled to occur on May 9, 2014. The Company anticipates receiving top-line results from the study by the end of May 2014.

During the 2014 first quarter, the Company successfully raised net proceeds of CAD $10.5 million (US$9.5 million) from a private placement which closed on February 21, 2014. In connection with the private placement, the Company issued 14,829,676 common shares at a price of CAD$0.711 per share.

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

For the three month period ended March 31, 2014, Trimel incurred Research and Development ("R&D") expenses of US$2.7 million, as compared to US$4.9 million for the comparable 2013 period. Higher R&D expenses for the 2013 first quarter reflected CompleoTRT™ expenses associated with the NDA submission in April 2013, a $2.0 million time-based milestone payment which became due on March 31, 2013, and development materials and mould prototypes for CompleoTRT™. First quarter 2014 R&D expenses were impacted by higher Tefina™ clinical trial costs as this study progressed to its completion in April 2014.

Trimel incurred General and Administrative expenses of US$1.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2014, as compared to US$3.4 million for the comparable 2013 period. The decrease in spending was primarily attributable to lower legal fees related to arbitration, corporate and intellectual property matters. The arbitration matters were settled pursuant to a December 21, 2013 agreement.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2014, the Company incurred a net loss of US$0.02 per share, as compared to a net loss of US$0.09 per share for the comparable 2013 period.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had total assets of US$27.2 million, as compared to US$28.1 million at December 31, 2013 and total liabilities of US$8.4 million at March 31, 2014, as compared to US$14.6 million at December 31, 2013. The US$6.2 million decrease in total liabilities was primarily impacted by a US$4.25 million milestone obligation paid to M&P Patent AG, payments related to the Company's debt facility and payments related to the purchase of CompleoTRT™ inventory.

The Company had a net cash outflow of US$0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. After adjusting this net cash outflow for the US$9.5 million private placement and the US$4.25 million milestone payment to M&P Patent AG which was accrued at the end of fiscal 2013 and paid on January 2, 2014, the Company's burn rate during the 2014 first quarter was approximately US$5.85 million, or an average of US$1.95 million per month. The Company believes it has sufficient resources to fund its ongoing activities through 2014, depending on the timing of further clinical activities and barring unforeseen events.
