Afrezza® net revenue for the first quarter of 2023 increased compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of higher product demand, higher price (including a more favorable gross-to-net adjustment) and a more favorable cartridge mix. V-Go® was acquired in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in collaborations and services revenue reflected that the commercial manufacturing of Tyvaso DPI had not yet commenced in the prior period. Royalties related to Tyvaso DPI, launched in the second quarter of 2022 by United Therapeutics (“UT”), continued to grow based on strong patient demand.

Commercial product gross margin in the first quarter of 2023 was 69% compared to 77% for the same period in 2022 primarily related to the addition of V-Go in the second quarter of 2022 which had a lower gross margin than Afrezza.

Cost of revenue – collaborations and services for the first quarter of 2023 was $10.7 million compared to $8.7 million for the same period in 2022, an increase of $2.0 million, due to an increase in manufacturing activities for Tyvaso DPI.

Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2023 were $5.6 million compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2022. The $2.1 million increase was primarily attributed to costs incurred to develop our product pipeline, including MNKD-101 (inhaled clofazimine) and the Afrezza pediatrics clinical study (INHALE-1).

Selling expenses for the first quarter of 2023 were $13.3 million compared to $12.7 million for the same period in 2022. The $0.6 million increase was primarily due to V-Go promotional efforts and increased headcount after the acquisition in the second quarter of 2022 as well as an increase in Afrezza promotional activities, partially offset by the termination of an Afrezza pilot promotional effort targeting primary care physicians which ended in the third quarter of 2022.

General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2023 were $10.5 million compared to $7.9 million for the same period in 2022. The $2.6 million increase was primarily attributable to higher stock-based compensation, increased headcount, and higher professional fees.

Interest expense on financing liability was $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 and remained consistent with the same period in 2022.

Interest expense on notes was $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2023 and remained consistent with the same period in 2022 due to fixed interest rates and no changes in debt balances.

Cash, cash equivalents and investments as of March 31, 2023 were $166.6 million.
