NEWTON, Mass., Feb. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: KPTI) ("Karyopharm," the "Company," "we" and "our"), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering novel cancer therapies, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021. In addition, Karyopharm highlighted select corporate milestones, including details regarding the ongoing U.S. commercialization of XPOVIO® (selinexor) and provided an overview of its key clinical development programs.
"I am exceptionally proud of the Karyopharm team's performance in 2021 as we advanced all aspects of our business, including securing a commercialization partnership with Menarini for Europe and other key global territories," said Richard Paulson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Karyopharm. "We delivered consecutive quarters of double-digit growth driven by XPOVIO's strong commercial performance in the second half of the year and head into 2022 with momentum as we continue to prioritize driving sales and the adoption of XPOVIO in multiple myeloma. Our momentum is accelerating as we reported positive top-line data from the SIENDO study evaluating selinexor as a maintenance therapy following front-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. Based on these findings, Karyopharm intends to submit a supplemental New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the first half of this year. We are also progressing our pipeline in key indications of multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes and myelofibrosis to improve survival and outcomes for patients with cancer."

Corporate and Business Highlights
Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Net product revenue: Net product revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $29.8 million, up 47% as compared to $20.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Net product revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $98.4 million, up 29% compared to $76.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
License and other revenue: License and other revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $96.5 million, compared to $14.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. This increase was driven by $75.0 million of revenue recognized related to the upfront payment that Karyopharm received from Menarini in connection with the license agreement entered into during the fourth quarter of 2021. In addition, Karyopharm recognized $19.5 million for a milestone payment related to commercial launch within the Antengene Therapeutics Limited territory following regulatory approval received for selinexor for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. License and other revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $111.4 million, compared to $31.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Cost of sales: Cost of sales for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $0.7 million, compared to $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $3.4 million, compared to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. Cost of sales reflects the costs of XPOVIO units sold and third-party royalties on net product revenue.
Research and development (R&D) expenses: R&D expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $44.0 million, compared to $37.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. R&D expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $160.8 million, compared to $150.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in R&D expenses in 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily attributable to $7.4 million related to the acquisition of certain assets from Neumedicines Inc., which closed in the third quarter of 2021, coupled with costs for key clinical trials in 2021, including costs incurred in preparation for a Phase 3 study evaluating selinexor in combination with pomalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses: SG&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $34.6 million, compared to $33.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. SG&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021, were $143.8 million, compared to $126.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in SG&A expenses compared to the prior year was due primarily to increased personnel costs.
Interest expense: Interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $7.9 million, compared to $7.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $26.0 million, compared to $27.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The decrease in interest expense year over year was primarily attributable to a $7.3 million decrease in non-cash interest expense related to Karyopharm's 3.00% senior convertible notes due 2025, as a result of the January 1, 2021 adoption of ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity's Own Equity, partially offset by a $6.2 million increase in interest expense related to the deferred royalty obligation following Karyopharm's June 2021 amendment of its Revenue Interest Agreement with HealthCare Royalty Management, LLC.
Net income (loss): Karyopharm reported net income of $38.7 million, or $0.51 per basic share and $0.46 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to a net loss of $43.4 million, or $0.59 per basic and diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2020. Net income (loss) includes non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $6.9 million and $6.3 million for the fourth quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. Karyopharm reported a net loss of $124.1 million, or $1.65 per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to a net loss of $196.3 million, or $2.72 per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2020. Net loss includes non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $29.8 million and $24.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Cash position: Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments as of December 31, 2021 totaled $235.6 million, compared to $276.7 million as of December 31, 2020.
2022 Financial Outlook
Based on its current operating plans, Karyopharm expects the following for full year 2022:
Non-GAAP Financial Information
Karyopharm uses a non-GAAP financial measure, including non-GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses, to provide operating expense guidance. Non-GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses exclude stock-based compensation expense. Karyopharm believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it provides greater transparency regarding Karyopharm's operating performance as it excludes non-cash stock compensation expense. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute or an alternative to GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses and should not be considered a measure of Karyopharm's liquidity. Instead, non-GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses should only be used to supplement an understanding of Karyopharm's operating results as reported under GAAP.

Karyopharm will host a conference call today, February 8, 2022, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time, to discuss the fourth quarter and full year 2021 financial results and financial outlook for 2022 and to provide other business highlights.

About XPOVIO® (selinexor)
XPOVIO is a first-in-class, oral exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor and the first of Karyopharm's Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compounds to be approved for the treatment of cancer. XPOVIO functions by selectively binding to and inhibiting the nuclear export protein XPO1. XPOVIO is approved in the U.S. and marketed by Karyopharm in multiple oncology indications, including: (i) in combination with Velcade® (bortezomib) and dexamethasone (XVd) in patients with multiple myeloma after at least one prior therapy; (ii) in combination with dexamethasone in patients with heavily pre-treated multiple myeloma; and (iii) in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), including DLBCL arising from follicular lymphoma, after at least two lines of systemic therapy. XPOVIO (also known as NEXPOVIO® in certain countries) has received regulatory approvals in a growing number of ex-U.S. territories and countries, including Europe, the United Kingdom, China, South Korea and Israel, and is marketed in those areas by Karyopharm's global partners. Selinexor is also being investigated in several other mid- and late-stage clinical trials across multiple high unmet need cancer indications, including in endometrial cancer and myelofibrosis.

Such statements are subject to numerous important factors, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Karyopharm's control, that may cause actual events or results to differ materially from Karyopharm's current expectations. For example, there can be no guarantee that Karyopharm will successfully commercialize XPOVIO; that regulators will grant confirmatory approval in the European Union based on the BOSTON study in adult patients with multiple myeloma; or that any of Karyopharm's drug candidates, including selinexor and eltanexor, will successfully complete necessary clinical development phases or that development of any of Karyopharm's drug candidates will continue. Further, there can be no guarantee that any positive developments in the development or commercialization of Karyopharm's drug candidate portfolio will result in stock price appreciation. Management's expectations and, therefore, any forward-looking statements in this press release could also be affected by risks and uncertainties relating to a number of other factors, including the following: the risk that the COVID-19 pandemic could disrupt Karyopharm's business more severely than it currently anticipates, including by negatively impacting sales of XPOVIO, interrupting or delaying research and development efforts, impacting the ability to procure sufficient supply for the development and commercialization of selinexor or other product candidates, delaying ongoing or planned clinical trials, impeding the execution of business plans, planned regulatory milestones and timelines, or inconveniencing patients; the adoption of XPOVIO in the commercial marketplace, the timing and costs involved in commercializing XPOVIO or any of Karyopharm's drug candidates that receive regulatory approval; the ability to obtain and retain regulatory approval of XPOVIO or any of Karyopharm's drug candidates that receive regulatory approval; Karyopharm's results of clinical trials and preclinical studies, including subsequent analysis of existing data and new data received from ongoing and future studies; the content and timing of decisions made by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory authorities, investigational review boards at clinical trial sites and publication review bodies, including with respect to the need for additional clinical studies; the ability of Karyopharm or its third party collaborators or successors in interest to fully perform their respective obligations under the applicable agreement and the potential future financial implications of such agreement; Karyopharm's ability to enroll patients in its clinical trials; unplanned cash requirements and expenditures; development or regulatory approval of drug candidates by Karyopharm's competitors for products or product candidates in which Karyopharm is currently commercializing or developing; and Karyopharm's ability to obtain, maintain and enforce patent and other intellectual property protection for any of its products or product candidates.
