NEXGEL
Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results
LANGHORNE,
Pa. – August 17, 2026 – NEXGEL, Inc. (“NEXGEL” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: “NXGL”),
a leading provider of healthcare, beauty, and over-the-counter (OTC) products including ultra-gentle, high-water-content hydrogel products
for healthcare and consumer applications, today announced its second quarter 2026 financial results for the period ending June 30, 2026.
The
second quarter of 2026 was a period of significant transformation and preparation for NexGel. Following the completion of our transaction
with Celularity, Inc. in mid-April, the Company focused on transitioning employees, integrating sales representatives and customer relationships,
and aligning our marketing, operations, and branding efforts around the newly formed BioNX Surgical division. These initiatives were
designed to support commercial growth, strengthen customer engagement, and advance our strategic partnership with Sequence Life Science,
Inc. While progress has been made, our rollout initiatives and expansion into the surgical channel have occurred at a slower pace than
originally anticipated.
On
August 4, Sequence deployed several tissue processing specialists to Celularity’s New Jersey facility as part of our previously
announced plan to transfer manufacturing technology and future production capabilities to Sequence’s facility in San Antonio, Texas.
This initiative was established at the outset of the acquisition to address known long-term supply chain constraints and improve manufacturing
scalability. While meaningful progress has been made, these supply chain challenges have continued to impact product availability and
have contributed to a current BioNX Surgical backlog of approximately $795,000.
Q2
revenue totaled $3.69 million, with a net loss of $2.87 million. The reported loss included several non-recurring or non-cash items,
including $756,554 of BioNX intangible asset amortization, $273,710 of one-time transaction-related expenses, and $144,495 associated
with the strategic recall of all SilverSeal inventory from Amazon.
The
SilverSeal inventory recall was undertaken to support the product’s launch into the hospital market beginning in August. SilverSeal
already has established reimbursement A-codes, providing coverage opportunities for both surgical and wound care applications in physician
offices, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), and hospital settings.
Management
believes the hospital channel represents a significant growth opportunity, with the potential to drive increased sales volume while generating
higher gross margins than current distribution channels.
In
addition, the Company recently launched BioNX Regenerative Eye Health & Aesthetics, a new commercial initiative focused on ocular
and aesthetic applications. The platform includes exclusively licensed products from Sequence and is designed to expand BioNX’s
presence in high-growth regenerative medicine markets. The initiative is being led by Shaun Mullen, an industry veteran with more than
20 years of experience successfully launching and scaling ophthalmic companies and technologies.
The
Company’s recently completed proxy solicitation did not receive sufficient shareholder support for the proposed increase in authorized
shares and reverse stock split authority. Management believes the primary reason was an unusually high level of broker non-votes. Because
these otherwise routine corporate governance proposals were linked to a proposal to redomicile the Company, brokers were unable to vote
uninstructed shares in accordance with management’s recommendations.
The
Company intends to resolicit shareholder approval for the increase in authorized shares and reverse split authority as standalone proposals,
without the redomicile component, and has engaged Alliance Advisors as proxy solicitor to assist in the process. Based on shareholder
feedback and the expected reduction in broker non-votes, management believes both proposals are well-positioned for approval. The current
timeline anticipates completion in late September, well within the timeframe necessary to support the Company’s strategic and capital
markets objectives.
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company held approximately $710,000 of restricted cash related to its prior transaction with ATW Partners. Since
quarter end, those funds have been released and returned to the Company, and the Company’s business relationship with ATW has been
concluded.
While
the integration of the acquired businesses and associated revenue ramp have progressed more slowly than originally anticipated, management
remains encouraged by opportunities entering the second half of the year.
The
Company expects to host an investor update call on or around September 15, 2026, to provide shareholders with a detailed update
on operational progress, commercialization initiatives, and expectations for the remainder of 2026.

Non-GAAP
Financial Measures
Certain
non-GAAP financial measures are included in this press release. In the calculation of these measures, the Company excludes certain items,
such as amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, tax impact of adjustments, other unusual items and discrete items
impacting income tax expense. The Company believes that excluding such items provides investors and management with a representation
of the Company’s core operating performance and with information useful in assessing its prospects for the future and underlying
trends in the Company’s operating expenditure and continuing operations. Management uses such non-GAAP measures to evaluate financial
results and manage operations. The release and the attachments to this release provide a reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP measures
referred to in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered
a substitute for the corresponding GAAP financial statements and investors should evaluate them carefully. These non-GAAP financial measures
may differ materially from the Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
Forward-Looking
Statement
This
press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (which Sections were adopted as part
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believe,”
“anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,”
“prospects,” “outlook,” and similar words or expressions, or future or conditional verbs, such as “will,”
“should,” “would,” “may,” and “could,” are generally forward-looking in nature and not
historical facts, including, without limitation, our belief the hospital channel represents a significant growth opportunity, with the
potential to drive increased sales volume while generating higher gross margins than current distribution channels and our belief that
both the increase in authorized shares and reverse stock split proposals are well-positioned for stockholder approval.. These forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the Company’s actual results, performance,
or achievements to be materially different from any anticipated results, performance, or achievements for many reasons. The Company disclaims
any intention to, and undertakes no obligation to, revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, a future
event, or otherwise. For additional risks and uncertainties that could impact the Company’s forward-looking statements, please
see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, including but not limited to the discussion
under “Risk Factors” therein, which the Company filed with the SEC and which may be viewed at http://www.sec.gov/.
