- In November 2021, Journey Medical completed its initial public offering of common stock of 3,520,000 shares at a public offering price of $10.00 per share, for net proceeds of $31.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses. All of the shares of common stock were offered by Journey Medical.
- Also in November 2021, Journey Medical announced the expansion of the company’s board of directors including four new independent directors: Jeffrey Paley, M.D., Justin Smith, Miranda Toledano and Neil Herskowitz.
- In October 2021, Journey Medical announced the appointment of Ernest De Paolantonio as Chief Financial Officer.
- In July 2021, Journey Medical completed final closings under the Cumulative Convertible Class A Preferred Stock Offering (the “Preferred Offering”), issuing an aggregate of 758,680 preferred shares at a price of $25.00 per share, raising approximately $19.0 million in gross proceeds, and after deducting commissions, fees and expenses, receiving approximately $17.0 million in net proceeds. These shares converted into Journey Medical common stock upon the IPO.
- In June 2021, Journey Medical announced an agreement with Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd. (“Dr. Reddy’s”) for the collaborative development and commercialization of the DFD-29 program (Modified Release Minocycline Capsules 40 mg) that is being evaluated for the treatment of inflammatory lesions of rosacea. Journey Medical has acquired global commercialization rights including the U.S. and Europe, except that Dr. Reddy’s has retained certain rights to the program in select markets including Brazil, Russia, India and China. Through this collaboration, the parties will work together to complete the development of DFD-29. Recruitment for the Phase 3 program is ongoing, and the first patient is expected to be dosed in the first quarter of 2022.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures:
In addition to the GAAP financial measures as presented in our Form 10-Q that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 15, 2021 the Company has, in this press release, included certain non-GAAP measurements. In addition, the Company has also provided a Journey Medical non-GAAP measurement, which starts with the GAAP (loss) income and removes stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense, amortization of licenses and debt discount, changes in fair value of derivative liability, Qbrexza inventory step-up, depreciation expense and wire transfer fraud loss.
Management believes use of these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance because (i) it allows for greater transparency with respect to key measures used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, (ii) it excludes the impact of non-cash or, when specified, non-recurring items that are not directly attributable to the Company's core operating performance and that may obscure trends in the Company's core operating performance and (iii) it is used by institutional investors and the analyst community to help analyze the Company's results. However, non-GAAP (loss) income and any other non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further, non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company and the manner in which they are calculated may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures or the calculations of the same non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, including the Company's competitors.
The table below provides a reconciliation from GAAP to non-GAAP measures:

The Non-GAAP loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, includes $13.8 million of expense, related to our in-process R&D acquired license, which includes the fair value related to our R&D license non-cash contingent payment of $3.8 million.
