(“NEXGEL” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: “NXGL”), a leading provider of ultra-gentle, high-water-content hydrogel products for healthcare and consumer applications, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022. Adam Levy, NEXGEL Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to report yet another quarter of year-over-year revenue growth. During the third quarter revenue grew 69.6% while our gross profit margin improved both sequentially and year-over-year, with a gross profit margin of 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. At quarter-end, we had $7.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, which provides us ample runway through 2024 and supports our strategic investments in R&D to drive future growth. We expect to grow revenue in 2023 and margins to expand as we continue to scale while realizing the benefits from our fixed facility expense structure.” Third Quarter 2022 and Recent Operational Highlights ●Appointed Dr. Neil Chesen and Dr. Leonard Nelson to the Company’s Scientific Advisory Board. ●Launched MEDAGEL Hydroliner Pro Pads for the protection of eyelashes during cosmetic extension and lift and tint services. These under-eye pads provide powerful, yet skin-friendly adhesion aimed at isolating the lower lashes. ●Subsequent to quarter-end, NEXGEL reported positive results from its proof-of-concept study comparing its diclofenac hydrogel patches designed to treat pain indications such as arthritis, joint pain, muscle aches and more against leading commercially available topical treatment. ●Developed a new, proprietary hydrogel eye patch to treat amblyopia, a type of poor vision that typically occurs in one or both eyes often referred to as lazy eye, that is much gentler on the skin and is manufactured without the use of harsh chemicals or painful adhesives. ●SAGE Journals’ Scars, Burns and Healing publication, a peer-reviewed journal that focuses on scar and burns research, published new data from a study evaluating the impact of NEXGEL’s SilverSeal® hydrogel dressing on postoperative scarring and complications. The results demonstrated significant scar improvement in patients treated with SilverSeal. Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $568 thousand, an increase of 69.6%, when compared to $233 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in overall revenue was due to sales growth in branded consumer products. Gross profit was $148 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, representing a 26% gross profit margin, compared to a gross profit loss of $57 thousand for the same period in 2021. The improvement was primarily due to higher volume of contract manufacturing sales relative to fixed costs. The Company anticipates continued improvement in gross margins due to both increased revenue against fixed facility expenses and larger production runs on commercially proven products. Cost of revenues was $420 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $392 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The year-over-year increase reflects the higher sales generated in the current year. Total operating expenses, including R&D and SG&A expenses, increased to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $553 thousand for the same period in 2021. Increased selling, general and administrative expenses during the period was primarily attributable to an increase of franchise tax expense, increased research and development investment and the costs for professional fees and other administrative expenses in the current period associated with public company governance requirements. During the third quarter, the Company incurred $220 thousand of franchise tax expense due to the Company’s IPO and related increase in gross assets. In August 2022, the Company reduced its authorized shares at its annual meeting therefore in 2023 franchise tax liability is expected to decrease to approximately $28 thousand on a similar asset base. Compensation and benefits increased by $31 thousand, or 35.6%, to $118 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, mainly due to the larger number of employees compared to the prior year and as officer compensation increased related to contract renewals. Share-based compensation increased by $40 thousand, or 88.9%, to $85 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Other Expenses and professional fees increased by $367 thousand, or 87.8%, to $785 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $418 thousand for the same period in 2021. This was primary due to an increase in professional fees in connection with our NASDAQ up-listing, which was completed in December 2021, and the aforementioned franchise tax. Research and development expenses increased to $193 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is due to the initiation of two proof of concept studies for drug delivery candidates utilizing our hydrogel technology. As of September 30, 2022, NEXGEL had $7.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, which includes an investment in treasuries of $6 million. As of November 8, 2022 NEXGEL had 5,572,234 shares of common stock outstanding.

Revenue increased 69.6% YoY while gross profit margin improved both sequentially and YoY to 26% LANGHORNE, Pa., Nov. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NEXGEL, Inc. (“NEXGEL” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: “NXGL”), a leading provider of ultra-gentle, high-water-content hydrogel products for healthcare and consumer applications, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022. Adam Levy, NEXGEL Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to report yet another quarter of year-over-year revenue growth. During the third quarter revenue grew 69.6% while our gross profit margin improved both sequentially and year-over-year, with a gross profit margin of 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. At quarter-end, we had $7.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, which provides us ample runway through 2024 and supports our strategic investments in R&D to drive future growth. We expect to grow revenue in 2023 and margins to expand as we continue to scale while realizing the benefits from our fixed facility expense structure.” Third Quarter 2022 and Recent Operational Highlights ●Appointed Dr. Neil Chesen and Dr. Leonard Nelson to the Company’s Scientific Advisory Board. ●Launched MEDAGEL Hydroliner Pro Pads for the protection of eyelashes during cosmetic extension and lift and tint services. These under-eye pads provide powerful, yet skin-friendly adhesion aimed at isolating the lower lashes. ●Subsequent to quarter-end, NEXGEL reported positive results from its proof-of-concept study comparing its diclofenac hydrogel patches designed to treat pain indications such as arthritis, joint pain, muscle aches and more against leading commercially available topical treatment. ●Developed a new, proprietary hydrogel eye patch to treat amblyopia, a type of poor vision that typically occurs in one or both eyes often referred to as lazy eye, that is much gentler on the skin and is manufactured without the use of harsh chemicals or painful adhesives. ●SAGE Journals’ Scars, Burns and Healing publication, a peer-reviewed journal that focuses on scar and burns research, published new data from a study evaluating the impact of NEXGEL’s SilverSeal® hydrogel dressing on postoperative scarring and complications. The results demonstrated significant scar improvement in patients treated with SilverSeal. Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $568 thousand, an increase of 69.6%, when compared to $233 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in overall revenue was due to sales growth in branded consumer products. Gross profit was $148 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, representing a 26% gross profit margin, compared to a gross profit loss of $57 thousand for the same period in 2021. The improvement was primarily due to higher volume of contract manufacturing sales relative to fixed costs. The Company anticipates continued improvement in gross margins due to both increased revenue against fixed facility expenses and larger production runs on commercially proven products. Cost of revenues was $420 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $392 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The year-over-year increase reflects the higher sales generated in the current year. Total operating expenses, including R&D and SG&A expenses, increased to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $553 thousand for the same period in 2021. Increased selling, general and administrative expenses during the period was primarily attributable to an increase of franchise tax expense, increased research and development investment and the costs for professional fees and other administrative expenses in the current period associated with public company governance requirements. During the third quarter, the Company incurred $220 thousand of franchise tax expense due to the Company’s IPO and related increase in gross assets. In August 2022, the Company reduced its authorized shares at its annual meeting therefore in 2023 franchise tax liability is expected to decrease to approximately $28 thousand on a similar asset base. Compensation and benefits increased by $31 thousand, or 35.6%, to $118 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, mainly due to the larger number of employees compared to the prior year and as officer compensation increased related to contract renewals. Share-based compensation increased by $40 thousand, or 88.9%, to $85 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Other Expenses and professional fees increased by $367 thousand, or 87.8%, to $785 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $418 thousand for the same period in 2021. This was primary due to an increase in professional fees in connection with our NASDAQ up-listing, which was completed in December 2021, and the aforementioned franchise tax. Research and development expenses increased to $193 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is due to the initiation of two proof of concept studies for drug delivery candidates utilizing our hydrogel technology. As of September 30, 2022, NEXGEL had $7.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, which includes an investment in treasuries of $6 million. As of November 8, 2022 NEXGEL had 5,572,234 shares of common stock outstanding.
