Celularity Inc. reported significant financial developments in its quarterly filing for the period ending March 31, 2024. The company achieved net revenues of $14.7 million, a substantial increase of 273.1% compared to $3.9 million in the same period of 2023. This growth was primarily driven by product sales, which rose to $12.8 million from $1.0 million, largely due to heightened demand for its Biovance 3L product. However, license, royalty, and other revenues decreased by $1.0 million due to lower distributor sales.
Operating expenses for the quarter totaled $22.1 million, a significant reduction from $67.8 million in the prior year. The decrease was attributed to lower research and development (R&D) expenses, which fell to $5.8 million from $16.9 million, reflecting cost-cutting measures including a reduction in workforce and the discontinuation of certain clinical trials. The company reported a loss from operations of $7.4 million, markedly improved from a loss of $63.9 million in Q1 2023.
Celularity's net loss for the quarter was $22.0 million, down from $64.0 million in the previous year. The loss per share improved to $(1.03) from $(4.12). The company’s cash and cash equivalents increased to $1.9 million from $0.2 million at the end of 2023, while total current assets rose to $22.9 million from $19.8 million.
Strategically, Celularity has been active in securing financing to support its operations. In January 2024, the company entered a securities purchase agreement that raised approximately $6.0 million through the sale of shares and warrants. Additionally, it secured a $15.0 million senior secured loan agreement. However, as of March 31, 2024, the company had an accumulated deficit of $863.8 million and approximately $44.2 million in debt, all due within one year, raising concerns about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The company is also facing compliance issues with Nasdaq due to delayed filings, which could lead to potential delisting. A compliance plan was submitted to Nasdaq, granting an extension until October 14, 2024, to file overdue reports. Celularity continues to seek additional capital to fund its operations and is exploring various strategic alternatives to address its financial challenges.
