SCPX Scorpius Holdings Inc

Scorpius Holdings, Inc (NYSE American: SCPX) (“Scorpius” or “the Company”), an integrated contract development and manufacturing organization (“CDMO”), today provided strategic, financial, and operational updates for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Jeff Wolf, CEO of Scorpius Holdings, Inc., stated, “We are extremely proud of the progress Scorpius achieved in the second quarter of 2024. Despite facing a quarter with significant working capital challenges, our revenues still increased by 16% and we reduced our operating expenses by 25% over the same period last year. With our recently completed financing, we now have a much stronger balance sheet to capitalize on a number of exciting projects in front of us. We anticipate this funding will not only allow us to accelerate our revenue growth but should enable us to achieve our goal of positive cash flow.”

“Our success this year highlights the significant progress we’ve made in both innovation and customer-focused program management across our service platforms. This progress is most clearly reflected in the strength of our pipeline, which now surpasses $100 million in weighted opportunities across the government and manufacturing sectors. We anticipate closing many of these opportunities by year’s end. As we look ahead, we are confident in our ability to sustain this momentum as we continue to execute our strategic initiatives and deliver value to our shareholders.”

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $0.8 million of revenue, primarily from process development, compared to $0.7 million of process development revenue recognized in the 2023 comparable quarter.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.0 million and $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, there was no change in fair value of contingent earn-out receivable, related party.
