WEST CHESTER, PA – May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Verrica Pharmaceuticals Inc. ("Verrica") (Nasdaq: VRCA), a therapeutics company developing and commercializing medications for the treatment of dermatological diseases, including skin cancers, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

"Our first quarter performance reflects accelerating growth in market demand for YCANTH as the new standard of care for the treatment of molluscum contagiosum, a condition that impacts approximately 6 million people in the United States alone," said Jayson Rieger, PhD, MBA, President and Chief Executive Officer of Verrica. "As the only FDA-approved, HCP-administered therapy for molluscum, YCANTH is a product that is uniquely positioned to address the unmet need of patients with molluscum, largely children under the age of 14. Demand for YCANTH grew sharply during the first quarter, as we set new records for dispensed applicator units during the quarter and in the month of March. April dispensed applicator units increased further from the record total in March, and the Company has achieved the milestone of over 100,000 total dispensed applicator units since launch. We have also achieved another significant milestone in expanding to new markets as our partner, Torii Pharmaceutical, launched YCANTH in Japan for patients with molluscum following regulatory approval last year."

------

"We are beginning to realize the traction from the efforts we began to implement last year to stabilize and grow our business. Alongside the growth in demand for YCANTH, we believe Verrica's future growth is enhanced by the potential of our late-stage clinical programs in basal cell carcinoma and common warts, which we believe could represent multi-billion dollar opportunities if these programs successfully complete their development and are approved," Dr. Rieger continued. "The exciting data from the Phase 2 study of our novel oncolytic peptide, VP-315, for the treatment of basal cell carcinoma is generating strong interest within the dermatology and oncology communities and among patients faced with treating basal cell carcinoma. Further, last December the first patient was dosed in the first trial (COVE-2) of the global Phase 3 program evaluating YCANTH (VP-102) for the treatment of common warts, and we are happy to announce achievement of over 50% of the current targeted enrollment in the trial. We expect the second Phase 3 trial (COVE-3) in the common warts program, with sites in both the U.S. and Japan, will be initiated in mid-2026. If successful, the global Phase 3 program in common warts has the potential to greatly expand the market for YCANTH to an indication with an estimated 22 million patients in the United States. The efforts we are undertaking in commercializing YCANTH for molluscum lay the foundation for an efficient and rapid expansion into common warts, if approved, as there will be a significant overlap in the clinicians treating both indications who would have the ability to access the product for both patient populations through the same distribution channels."

Dr. Rieger concluded, "we are proud of our progress in establishing YCANTH as the new standard of care for molluscum and of our work to expand our products, indications and markets. Collectively, our commercially available asset and pipeline programs, if successful, could represent significant benefits for patients and value for our company and our shareholders."

**Business Highlights and Recent Developments** 

**YCANTH<sup>®</sup> (VP-102)** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• During the first quarter of 2026, YCANTH dispensed applicator units totaled 15,302, representing a year-over-year
increase of approximately 51.3% from the first quarter of 2025. On a sequential basis, YCANTH dispensed applicator units increased approximately 12.1% from the prior quarter. In the first quarter of 2026, while January was likely impacted by winter
weather across the East Coast, dispensed applicator units per selling day rebounded sharply in February and March, setting a record monthly high since launch in March.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On February 9, 2026, the Company announced the commercial launch of YCANTH in Japan by its partner,
Torii Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. ("Torii"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shionogi & Co., Ltd., for the treatment of molluscum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On January 7, 2026, the Company announced that the first patient was dosed in December 2025 in the first
trial (COVE-2) of our global Phase 3 program evaluating YCANTH (VP-102) for the treatment of common warts. If the Phase 3 program is successful, YCANTH could become
the first therapy approved in either the United States or Japan for the treatment of common warts, a condition that impacts over 22 million people in the United States alone. The Company has retained full commercial rights for all potential
YCANTH indications outside of Japan and believes that YCANTH for common warts could represent a substantial commercial and licensing opportunity.

**VP-315** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On May 5, 2026, the Company announced that it will present data from its Phase 2 study of its novel
oncolytic peptide, VP-315, for the treatment of basal cell carcinoma in a late-breaking abstract selected for oral presentation at the upcoming 2026 Society for Investigative Dermatology (SID) Annual Meeting,
which will take place from May 13-16, 2026, in Chicago, Illinois. Data from the Company's Phase 2 study will highlight an observed abscopal-like effect of VP-315 in non-treated basal cell carcinoma lesions.

**CORPORATE** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On February 12, 2026, the Company announced the appointment of Chris Chapman as its Chief Commercial
Officer. Mr. Chapman brings over 25 years of commercial experience in the pharmaceutical industry to Verrica, and most recently served as Chief Commercial Officer at Dermavant Sciences through its acquisition by Organon, where he played an
instrumental role in launching VTAMA<sup>®</sup> (tapinarof) cream, 1%, approved for adult plaque psoriasis in June 2022 and atopic dermatitis in December 2024.

**First Quarter 2026 Financial Results** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $5.0 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• U.S. YCANTH product revenue, net was $4.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to net
product revenue of $3.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The increase in product revenue, net was primarily related to an increase in deliveries of YCANTH to Verrica's distribution partners commensurate with an increase
in dispensed applicator unit volume.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• License and collaboration revenue was $0.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, consisting
primarily of commercial supply for Torii's YCANTH launch in Japan. License and collaboration revenue was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Costs of product revenue were $0.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to
$0.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, consisting primarily of product costs related to the sale of YCANTH.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Selling, general and administrative expenses were $10.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026,
compared to $8.8 million for the same period in 2025. Excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, the increase of $1.3 million was primarily due to increased commercial spend, related to the expansion of the sales force.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Research and development expenses were $3.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to
$2.3 million for the same period in 2025. Excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, the increase was primarily attributable to costs associated with the Phase 3 program for common warts. The expense for the Phase 3 common warts program
did not impact Verrica's cash balance, as the first $40 million of payments for this program will be made by Torii under the Company's collaboration and license agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Interest income was $0.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to $0.3 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to lower cash balances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Interest expense was $0.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2.2 million
for the same period in 2025. The decrease of $2.0 million was related to the settlement and termination of the Company's debt facility in November 2025.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, net loss was $9.7 million, or $0.45 per share, compared to a net
loss of $9.7 million, or $1.03 per share, for the same period in 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, non-GAAP net loss was
$8.8 million, or $0.41 per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $8.3 million, or $0.88 per share, for the same period in 2025.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures** 

In evaluating the operating performance of its business, Verrica's management considers non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation expense and non-cash interest expense that are required by GAAP. Verrica excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expense from these non-GAAP measures to facilitate comparison to peer companies who also provide similar non-GAAP disclosures and because it reflects how management internally manages the business. In addition, Verrica excludes non-cash interest expense from these non-GAAP measures to facilitate an understanding of the effects of the debt service obligations on the Company's liquidity and comparisons to peer group companies who also provide similar non-GAAP disclosures and because it is reflective of how management internally manages the business. Verrica also excludes certain other one-time expenses and impacts from change in fair value of derivative liability. Non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the tables following the financial statements in this press release.

**About YCANTH<sup>®</sup> (VP-102)** 

YCANTH<sup>®</sup> is a proprietary drug-device combination product that contains a GMP-controlled formulation of cantharidin delivered via a single-use applicator that allows for precise topical dosing and targeted administration for the treatment of molluscum. YCANTH is the first and only healthcare professional-administered product approved by the FDA to treat adult and pediatric patients two years of age and older with molluscum contagiosum — a common, highly contagious skin disease that affects an estimated six million people in the United States, primarily children. Approval of YCANTH was based upon the positive results from two Phase 3 clinical trials in approximately 500 patients which demonstrated that YCANTH was a safe and effective therapeutic for the treatment of molluscum. Approximately 250 million lives are eligible to receive YCANTH covered by insurance. Commercially insured patients pay just $25 per YCANTH treatment visit, for up to two applicators. Other uninsured patients may be eligible to receive YCANTH at a reduced cost if certain eligibility requirements are met for patient assistance. Please visit YCANTHPro.com for additional information.

**About VP-315 (ruxotemitide)** 

VP-315 is a potential first-in-class oncolytic chemotherapeutic peptide immunotherapy administered directly into a tumor to induce immunogenic cell death and thereby unleashing a broad spectrum of tumor antigens for T cell responses, which may offer a non-surgical option for patients suffering from skin cancer. The technology is based on pioneering research in "host defense peptides" – nature's first line of defense towards foreign pathogens. Verrica holds an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize VP-315 for certain dermatologic oncology indications, including non-metastatic melanoma and non-metastatic merkel cell carcinoma, and intends to focus initially on basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas as the lead indications for development. VP-315 has demonstrated positive tumor-specific immune cell responses in multi-indication Phase 1/2 oncology trials.

**About Verrica Pharmaceuticals Inc.** 

Verrica is a therapeutics company developing and commercializing medications for the treatment of dermatological diseases, including skin cancers. Verrica's product YCANTH<sup>®</sup> (VP-102) (cantharidin), is the first and only healthcare professional-administered treatment approved by the FDA to treat adult and pediatric patients two years of age and older with molluscum contagiosum, a highly contagious viral skin infection affecting approximately 6 million people in the United States, primarily children. YCANTH<sup>®</sup> (VP-102) is also in development to treat common warts, the largest remaining unmet need in medical dermatology. Verrica has also entered a worldwide license agreement with Lytix Biopharma ASA to develop and commercialize VP-315 (ruxotemitide, formerly known as LTX-315 and VP-LTX-315) for non-melanoma skin cancers including basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

---

(a) The effects of non-cash stock-based compensation are excluded because
of varying available valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions. Verrica believes this is a useful measure for investors because such exclusion facilitates comparison to peer companies who also provide similar non-GAAP disclosures and is reflective of how management internally manages the business.

(b) The effects of non-cash interest expenses and derivative liability
change in value are excluded because Verrica believes such exclusions facilitate an understanding of the effects of the debt service obligation on the Company's liquidity and comparisons to peer group companies and is reflective of how
management internally manages the business.
