Selling Expenses
Selling expenses decreased to $6,307,000 and $18,375,000 for the three- and nine-month periods ended August 31, 2024, compared to $6,728,000 and
$20,021,000 for the same periods last year. The decrease in selling expenses in the three- and nine-month periods ended August 31, 2024, is due in large part to tighter expense control in commercialization activities. Spending in the third
quarter of Fiscal 2024 has stabilized following the completion of cost-cutting measures implemented in Fiscal 2023.
The amortization of the
intangible asset value for the EGRIFTA SV® and Trogarzo® commercialization rights is also included in selling expenses. As such,
we recorded amortization expense of $360,000 and $1,080,000 for the three- and nine-month periods ended August 31, 2024 compared to $675,000 and $2,153,000 in the same periods of Fiscal 2023.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and
administrative expenses in the three- and nine-month periods ended August 31, 2024, amounted to $2,947,000 and $9,793,000 compared to $3,710,000 and $11,878,000 reported in the comparable periods of Fiscal 2023. The decrease in General and
Administrative expenses is largely due to the implementation of cost-cutting measures announced in Fiscal 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA was $7,239,000 for the third quarter of Fiscal 2024 and $12,451,000 for the nine-month period ended August 31, 2024, compared to
$2,160,000 and $(7,872,000) for the same periods of Fiscal 2023. See Non-IFRS and Non-US-GAAP Measure above and see
Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA below for a reconciliation to Net Loss for the relevant periods.
Net Finance Costs
Net finance costs for the three- and nine-month periods ended August 31, 2024, were $2,366,000 and $6,674,000 compared to $674,000 and $7,557,000
for the comparable periods of Fiscal 2023. Net finance costs in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024 included interest of $2,295,000, versus $2,244,000 in the third quarter of Fiscal 2023. Net finance costs in the nine-month period ended August 31,
2024 included interest of $6,882,000 versus $5,902,000 in the nine-month period of Fiscal 2023. During the nine-month period ended on August 31, 2023, net finance costs were also impacted by the loss on Loan Facility modification of $2,650,000
related to the issuance of common share purchase warrants (the Marathon Warrants) issued in connection with the amendments to the credit agreement entered into with affiliates of Marathon Asset Management (the Credit
Agreement).
Net finance costs for the three- and nine-month periods ended August 31, 2024, also included accretion expense of $366,000
and $1,122,000, compared to $500,000 and $1,642,000 for the comparable periods in 2023.
