DALLAS, Aug. 10, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SWK Holdings Corporation (SWKH.OB) (“SWK” or the “Company”), a life science focused specialty finance company, announced its second quarter 2018 financial results.
Second Quarter 2018 Highlights:
- Reported total revenues of approximately $6.8 million for the quarter, compared to $6.1 million for the second quarter of 2017.
- Reported net income of approximately $3.7 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the quarter, as compared to $3.4 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2017.
- Total income producing assets (defined as finance receivables, marketable securities and investment in unconsolidated subsidiaries; less non-controlling interests) were approximately $171.8 million as of June 30, 2018, an 11.6% increase compared to $153.9 million as of December 31, 2017.
“We had a very active first half of 2018, closing four new transactions year to date through July and deploying $46.7 million into new opportunities,” stated Winston Black, Chief Executive Officer of SWK. "We are encouraged by the quality of and activity in our pipeline. We believe we have built a high-quality platform in the life science finance sector, becoming a reliable partner for companies seeking non-dilutive finance alternatives to focus our efforts on executing our long-term strategy. With our new credit facility, we are well positioned to continue growing our finance receivables portfolio.”
Note:
- All references to growth rate percentages and shares compare the results of the period to those of the prior year comparable period.
- The Company reports its financial results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing the Company’s ongoing performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s non-GAAP financial information does not represent a comprehensive basis of accounting. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company's performance.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted net income and its components and Non-GAAP Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for GAAP net income and its components and basic and diluted EPS. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, we stress that these are Non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, Non-GAAP Adjusted net income and its components (unlike GAAP net income and its components) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies.
Portfolio Overview

During the quarter, the Company closed a new royalty financing for $7.6 million and realized $9.2 million of proceeds on an exit of a loan position. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company closed a new loan transaction for $12.2 million and received another loan payoff, receiving $16.4 million in proceeds. On a gross basis, the Company has deployed $62.3 million year to date through August 10, 2018. Net of payoffs, the Company has deployed $36.7 million year to date through August 10, 2018.
As of August 10, 2018, the Company and its partners have executed transactions with 30 different parties under its specialty finance strategy, funding an aggregate $445 million since 2012 in various financial products across the life science sector. At the end of the second quarter, the weighted average projected effective yield of the finance receivables portfolio was 13.1%. The projected effective yield is the rate at which income is expected to be recognized pursuant to the Company’s revenue recognition policies, if all payments are received pursuant to the terms of the finance receivables. The decrease in the effective yield from the first quarter of 2018 is primarily due to the payoff of a loan position and another loan position becoming non-accrual during the quarter.

Results of Operations
Revenues
We generated revenues of $6.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which consisted primarily of interest and fees earned on our finance receivables. We generated revenues of $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, driven primarily by $5.7 million in interest and fees earned on our finance receivables. The increase in revenue is primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in interest and fees earned on new and existing finance receivables and a larger portfolio. Revenue also reflects a $0.6 million decrease in royalty revenue on our Narcan® investment. Royalty revenue from our Narcan® investment will be substantially less going forward, as we reached the 1.5x cash on cash royalty cap during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase is partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in income from our investment in an unconsolidated entity, which sold its US marketing rights to its underlying intellectual property.
Provision for Credit Losses
We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation, stock-based compensation and related costs for management, staff, Board of Directors, legal and audit expenses, and corporate governance. General and administrative expenses increased to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, which was primarily due to an increase in the performance-based bonus accrual payable to Company management and employees.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, reflected a net fair market value loss of $(0.2) million and $(0.1) million on our warrant derivatives and a net fair market value loss of $(0.5) million and $0 on our equity securities.
Income Tax Provision
We recognized $1.1 million of deferred income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018. We recognized $1.4 million of deferred income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease in deferred income tax expense was primarily due to a reduction in the Federal statutory tax rate signed into law on December 22, 2017. The new legislation decreased the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, effective January 1, 2018.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2018, we had $21.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $30.6 million in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2017. The primary driver of the net decrease in our cash balance was new and add-on investment funding of $46.7 million, partially offset by interest and fee payments of $28.5 million earned on our finance receivables, including $13.7 million of royalty-related receipts from our Narcan® investment.
As of June 30, 2018, we had $11.9 million of unfunded commitments outstanding.
Adjusted Net Income
Net income in accordance with GAAP for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, was $3.7 million, or $0.28 per diluted share. During the same period adjusted net income was $5.6 million, or $0.43 per share.
The table below provides a reconciliation of SWK’s reported (GAAP) consolidated net income to SWK’s adjusted net income attributable to SWK Holdings Corporation Stockholders (Non-GAAP) for the three and six ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017. The table eliminates provisions for income taxes, non-cash mark-to-market changes on warrant assets and marketable investments and SWK's warrant liability.
