“The third quarter of 2015 saw significant advancements in our three orphan
oncology-focused clinical development programs. We maintained good control of
our cash burn,while continuing to fund our clinical developments notably our key
asset Livatag®, a short term and very strong value driver for the company.
Recurring revenues are progressing and we are working closely with our three
U.S. partners - Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Innocutis/Cipher and Dara BioSciences
- to improve market penetration and build sales momentum. Our ability to
generate revenues from registered products combined with a promising R&D
pipeline in orphan oncology distinguish Onxeo from other European biotech
companies. We believe that this unique value proposition will enable us to
continue growing and realize our goal of becoming a leader in the markets we
serve”, commented Judith Greciet, CEO of Onxeo.

Q3 Financial information

Total revenues for the third quarter of 2015 amounted to €1.1 million, out of
which:

  · €0.7 million of recurring revenues corresponding to product supplies to
commercial partners and royalties on partners’ sales;
  · and €0.4 million of non-recurring revenues, mostly corresponding to the
upfront payment (€0.3 million) received from Bruno Pharmaceutici, our new
partner for Sitavig® in Italy.

Over the first nine months of the year, total revenues stood at €2.7
million, out of which €2.0 million were recurring revenues versus €0.9 million
in 2014. This two-fold increase results from the launch of Beleodaq® and
Sitavig® in the U.S. by partners Spectrum Pharmaceuticals and Innocutis/Cipher
respectively during the summer of 2014, as well as from the initial supply of
Oravig® batches to new U.S. partner Dara BioSciences prior to the launch of the
product in October 2015.

Although overall revenues significantly increased compared to last year,
Beleodaq® and Sitavig® still face significant competition and high barriers to
entry in their respective markets in the U.S. Onxeo’s goal is to foster an
active coordination with its partners in order to ensure the best conditions for
sales uptake for these products in the important U.S. market.

Over the first 12 months of commercialization in the U.S., Beleodaq® net sales
have reached $10 million and Sitavig® sales have reached $2.3 million.

As of September 30, 2015, consolidated cash position amounted to €35.8 million.
Operating cash burn over the quarter stood at €7.1 million, in line with
expectations. Current cash position, taking into account the cashing in of the
2014 R&D tax credit and a new tranche of the Bpifrance grant for Livatag® (total
received in October: €2.9 million), is expected to be sufficient to fund the
Company until mid 2017, including the ability to fully support ongoing clinical
programs.
