TG Therapeutics Provides Business Update and Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Conference call to be held today, August 8, 2022 at 8:30 AM ET

New York, NY, (August 8, 2022) - TG Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: TGTX) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022 and recent company developments, along with a business outlook for the remainder of 2022.

Michael S. Weiss, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our primary focus for the remainder of this year is working toward the approval of ublituximab, which has a PDUFA goal date of December 28, 2022, and preparing for its potential launch in early 2023. If approved, we believe ublituximab has the potential to be a meaningful treatment option for patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis." Mr. Weiss continued, "During the first half of the year we implemented a number of cost-saving measures, and we are pleased to report those efforts have resulted in a lower than expected 2Q burn, which we believe puts us in a good financial position as we approach the potential launch of ublituximab."

Recent Highlights

Ublituximab in Multiple Sclerosis

●	U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted the Biologics License Application (BLA) for ublituximab, as a treatment for patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (RMS) and set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal date of December 28, 2022.

●

Presented new exploratory analyses, from the ULTIMATE I and II Phase 3 trials at the 2022 Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers Annual Meeting (CMSC) and the 8th Congress of the European Academy of Neurology (EAN). As previously reported, both trials met their primary endpoint with ublituximab treatment demonstrating a statistically significant reduction in annualized relapse rate (ARR) over a 96-week period compared to teriflunomide in patients with RMS.

Key Objectives for 2022

●	Obtain FDA approval of ublituximab to treat relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis by the PDUFA goal date of December 28, 2022

●	Strengthen our commercial infrastructure to support the potential launch of ublituximab

Financial Results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2022

●

Net Loss: Net loss was $40.5 million and $109.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to $78.5 million and $169.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in net loss in both periods is primarily the result of our cost-savings measures implemented and the withdrawal of UKONIQ from the market.

●

R&D Expenses: Total research and development (R&D) expense was $26.9 million and $74.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to $44.9 million and $108.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The decrease was due primarily to decreases in licensing milestone fees, clinical trial expenses and non-cash compensation R&D expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

●

SG&A Expenses: Total selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was $12.6 million and $33.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to $34.0 million and $60.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The decrease was due primarily to decreased selling, general and administrative costs, including personnel, associated with withdrawal of UKONIQ during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. We expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to increase slightly for the remainder of 2022 as we prepare for the potential launch of ublituximab in RMS.

●	Cash Position and Financial Guidance: Cash, cash equivalents and investment securities were $231.8 million as of June 30, 2022, which the Company believes will be sufficient to fund the Company's planned operations into the second half of 2023.
