Actively dosing patients in OCU400 Phase 3 liMeliGhT clinical trial and on track for 2026 BLA filing
OrthoCellix reverse merger intended to unlock the value of NeoCart/regenerative cell therapies and enable the Company to focus capital on modifier gene therapy platform
Signed binding term sheet for exclusive Korean rights to OCU400 with upfront fees and near-term development milestone payments totaling up to $11 million
MALVERN, Pa., Aug. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ocugen, Inc. (Ocugen or the Company) (NASDAQ: OCGN), a pioneering biotechnology leader in gene therapies for blindness diseases, today reported second quarter 2025 financial results along with a business update.
“While our modifier gene therapy clinical trials advance—now with two in late-stage—we are securing strategic partnerships and evolving the business to support three successful Biologics License Application (BLA) filings over the next three years,” said Dr. Shankar Musunuri, Chairman, CEO, and Co-founder of Ocugen. “We have also made important appointments to our Board of Directors, Retina Scientific Advisory Board, and Leadership Team to provide the Company with scientific and strategic know-how to bring us closer to delivering paradigm-changing gene therapies to millions of people with blindness diseases.”
In June, the Company announced a proposed reverse merger with OrthoCellix, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and Carisma Therapeutics, Inc. to create a Nasdaq-listed, late clinical-stage regenerative cell therapy company with a first-in-class technology platform, focused on orthopedic diseases. The combined company will focus on the development of OrthoCellix’s NeoCart® technology for the treatment of articular knee cartilage defects. Previously, NeoCart® received Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation and concurrence from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on a single, confirmatory Phase 3 clinical trial to enable submission of a BLA.
Aligned with Ocugen’s business development strategy to pursue regional partnerships for OCU400, the Company signed a binding term sheet to negotiate and enter into a licensing agreement with a well-established leader in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sector in Korea for exclusive Korean rights to OCU400. Pursuant to the term sheet, under the license agreement, in addition to the upfront and milestone fees, the Company will be entitled to sales milestones of $1 million for every $15 million of net sales in Korea in addition to a royalty of 25% on net sales of OCU400 generated by Ocugen’s partner. Ocugen will manufacture commercial supply of OCU400 under terms of a supply agreement. A regional approach preserves Ocugen’s rights to larger geographies to maximize total patient reach while also generating return for shareholders.
Following the FDA’s agreement to proceed with a Phase 2/3 GARDian3 pivotal confirmatory trial for OCU410ST for Stargardt disease, the agency granted Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (RPDD) to OCU410ST in May. This designation underscores the urgent need to address Stargardt disease, which remains a significant unmet medical need. Stargardt disease is an inherited retinal disorder that typically presents in childhood and affects approximately 100,000 people in the U.S. and Europe combined, and approximately 1 million globally. Currently, there is no FDA-approved treatment available for Stargardt disease.
The OCU410ST Phase 2/3 GARDian3 clinical trial is progressing well with the first patient dosed in July after FDA clearance in June. The GARDian3 clinical trial builds upon encouraging results and positive data from the Phase 1 GARDian trial, which demonstrated 48% slower lesion growth at 12-month follow-up in evaluable treated eyes compared to untreated eyes. Additionally, evaluable treated eyes showed a statistically significant (p=0.031) and clinically meaningful improvement of nearly 2-line/9-letter gain in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at 12-month follow-up when compared to untreated eyes.
Positive preliminary efficacy and safety data from the OCU410 Phase 1 ArMaDa clinical trial at 12 months demonstrated no drug-related serious adverse events (SAEs), 23% slower geographic atrophy (GA) lesion growth in treated eyes versus fellow eyes after a single injection, and 2-line/10-letter gain in visual acuity in treated eyes when compared to untreated fellow eyes. Preliminary results from ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial (N=31), 6-month interim analysis, demonstrated a 27% slower lesion growth and preservation of retinal tissue. These data support the potential for OCU410 to provide a one-time treatment for life for the 2-3 million people in the U.S. & EU combined who suffer from GA.
Patients are actively being recruited in the United States and Canada for the OCU400 Phase 3 liMeliGhT clinical trial, which remains on track for BLA and MAA submissions in 2026. This is the only broad retinitis pigmentosa (RP) gene-agnostic trial to address multiple genetic mutations with a single therapeutic approach. In addition, the European Medicines Agency has granted eligibility to submit the OCU400 Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) through the centralized procedure, based on the current study design and statistical analysis plan.
Regarding the Company’s inhaled vaccines portfolio, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) intends to initiate the Phase 1 clinical trial for OCU500 in the third quarter of 2025.
In addition to the notable leadership appointments, Ocugen welcomed the National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology (NSCEB) and U.S. Rep. Chrissy Houlahan to its manufacturing facility as part of the NSCEB’s Biotech Across America events, highlighting biotech innovation in Pennsylvania. Rep. Houlahan subsequently announced the bipartisan BIOTech Caucus to build greater awareness and understanding of biotechnology among lawmakers and support transformative advances in healthcare. Dr. Musunuri supports the formation of this very important bipartisan BIOTech Caucus that includes senior congressional leaders such as Rep. Pete Sessions in addition to local leaders, which will prioritize biotechnology at the national level to ensure U.S. leadership globally.
“The meaningful progress Ocugen is making across its novel modifier gene therapy platform, along with strategic leadership changes and significant external alliances are evidence of a strong first half of 2025,” said Dr. Musunuri. “We look forward to providing critical program updates and data in the coming months.”
OCU400 for RP – On track to complete enrollment in support of BLA/MAA filings in 2026. Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) convened and found no SAEs related to OCU400 and recommended to continue study dosing as planned.
OCU410ST for Stargardt Disease– FDA granted RPDD for OCU410ST for the treatment of ABCA4-associated retinopathies including Stargardt disease, retinitis pigmentosa 19, and cone-rod dystrophy 3. FDA cleared the Investigational New Drug (IND) amendment to initiate a Phase 2/3 pivotal confirmatory trial of OCU410ST and dosing has been initiated.
OCU410 for GA – Phase 1 data at 12 months demonstrates reduced lesion growth, preservation of retinal tissue, and—most importantly—a positive effect on the functional visual measure of low luminance visual acuity (LLVA). Interim Phase 2 data at 6 months demonstrated very encouraging results consistent with Phase 1 data.
Ophthalmic Biologic Product
OCU200 – DSMB approved continuation of dosing in the third cohort and the Company intends to complete the Phase 1 clinical trial in the second half of 2025.
Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash totaled $27.3 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to $58.8 million as of December 31, 2024, providing cash runway into the first quarter of 2026. The Company had 292.2 million shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2025.

Reported net sales of $395 million, within the Company’s outlook
Earnings per share of $0.31, adjusted earnings per share of $0.28, within outlook
SG&A down compared to prior year
Multi-year cost reduction program has yielded more than $40 million of savings
Third quarter and full year 2025 outlook provided
LAKE ZURICH, Ill.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– ACCO Brands Corporation (NYSE: ACCO) today reported financial results for its second quarter and six-months ended June 30, 2025.
“We reported second quarter net sales and adjusted EPS in line with our outlook. We felt the immediate disruption from the tariffs in April, with trends improving sequentially throughout the quarter. We continue to make progress on our multi-year cost reduction program realizing more than $40 million in cumulative cost savings since the plan’s inception. Our flexible global supply chain is a competitive advantage as we navigate the evolving business environment,” stated ACCO Brands’ President and Chief Executive Officer, Tom Tedford.
“We expect sales in the third quarter to moderately improve as economies stabilize, and benefit from the weakening dollar. Our momentum in new product development is accelerating, with an exciting pipeline of innovative products launching across multiple categories in the second half of the year. Our disciplined cost management and operational optimization efforts, position us well to drive enhanced long-term shareholder value as sales trends improve. We are building a resilient organization that is well-positioned to capitalize on opportunities as market conditions improve,” concluded Mr. Tedford.
Second Quarter Results
Net sales were $394.8 million, down 9.9 percent from $438.3 million in 2024. Favorable foreign exchange increased sales by $2.6 million, or 0.6 percent. Comparable sales decreased 10.5 percent. Sales in the quarter were negatively impacted by disruptions in purchasing as tariffs were announced. The decline in net sales also reflects softer global demand for consumer and business products, partially offset by growth in gaming accessories.
Operating income was $33.0 million versus operating loss of $111.2 million in 2024. The loss in 2024 was primarily due to non-cash impairment charges of $165.2 million related to goodwill and intangible assets within the Americas segment. Restructuring expense of $9.4 million compares to $0.3 million of reserve release in the prior year. Current year operating income benefited from a gain on sale of assets of $6.9 million. Adjusted operating income was $47.1 million compared to $64.6 million in 2024. The decline in adjusted operating income reflects lower sales volume and lower fixed-cost absorption which was partially offset by cost savings and lower incentive compensation expense.
Net income was $29.2 million, or $0.31 per share, compared with prior-year net loss of $125.2 million, or $(1.29) per share. Both the current and prior year results reflect the items noted above in operating income. Current year net income was positively impacted as the Company settled the outstanding tax assessments in Brazil, resulting in a net discrete tax benefit of $13.4 million. Adjusted net income was $25.8 million compared with adjusted net income of $36.6 million in 2024, and adjusted earnings per share was $0.28 compared with $0.37 in 2024.
Business Segment Results
ACCO Brands Americas – Second quarter segment net sales of $248.5 million decreased 15.0 percent from $292.3 million in the prior year. Adverse foreign exchange reduced sales by 1.1 percent. Comparable sales were $251.6 million, down 13.9 percent versus the prior year. Net sales in the quarter were negatively impacted by disruptions in customer purchases as tariffs were announced and sales improved throughout the quarter. The decline in net sales is also attributable to softer demand for certain consumer and business products, partially offset by growth in gaming accessories.
Second quarter operating income was $40.7 million compared to an operating loss of $108.7 million a year earlier. The prior year loss was primarily due to non-cash charges of $165.2 million related to the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets. Current year operating income benefited from a gain on sale of assets of $5.7 million. Adjusted operating income was $43.2 million, down from $63.2 million in the prior year. The decrease in adjusted operating income reflects lower sales volume, lower fixed-cost absorption and impacts from tariffs, partially offset by cost savings.
ACCO Brands International – Second quarter segment net sales of $146.3 million increased 0.2 percent from $146.0 million in the prior year. Favorable foreign exchange increased sales by 3.9 percent. Comparable sales were $140.6 million, down 3.7 percent versus the prior year. Comparable sales declines reflect reduced demand for certain business products, partially offset by the benefit of price increases and the acquisition of Buro Seating, as well as growth in gaming accessories.
Second quarter operating loss was $0.8 million, compared to an operating income of $7.8 million in the prior year. Restructuring expense associated with the multi-year cost reduction program of $8.6 million, compares to a reserve release of $0.3 million in the prior year. Adjusted operating income was $12.4 million compared with $11.7 million in the prior year. The increase in adjusted operating income reflects pricing actions, cost savings and lower incentive compensation expense, which more than offset the impact of lower sales volume.
Six Month Results
Net sales were $712.2 million, down 10.7 percent from $797.2 million in 2024. Adverse foreign exchange reduced sales by $9.1 million, or 1.1 percent. Comparable sales decreased 9.6 percent. Net sales declines reflect the impact from the tariff announcements, and softer global demand for consumer and business products and technology accessories categories.
Operating income was $26.3 million versus operating loss of $105.3 million in 2024, primarily due to non-cash impairment charges of $165.2 million related to goodwill and intangible assets within the Americas segment in the prior year. Restructuring expense of $11.7 million, compares to reserve releases of $0.6 million in the prior year. Adjusted operating income was $54.0 million, down from $80.8 million in 2024. Adjusted operating income decline reflects lower sales volume which was partially offset by cost savings.
Net income was $16.0 million, or $0.17 per share, compared with a net loss of $131.5 million, or $(1.37) per share, in 2024. Net income in the six-month period was positively impacted by the same items noted above for the second quarter. The prior year loss reflects the items noted above in operating income. Adjusted net income was $23.7 million compared with $39.2 million in 2024, and adjusted earnings per share were $0.25 per share compared with $0.40 per share in 2024.
Capital Allocation and Dividend
Year to date, operating cash flow was an outflow of $33.4 million versus an inflow of $2.6 million in the prior year. Adjusted free cash flow was an outflow of $23.7 million compared to an outflow of $2.3 million in the prior year. The Company’s consolidated leverage ratio as of June 30, 2025 was 4.3x.
Year to date, the Company paid dividends of $13.5 million and repurchased 3.2 million shares of common stock for $15.1 million.
Effective July 29, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to its bank credit agreement which increases its maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio financial covenant through 2026.
On July 25, 2025, ACCO Brands announced that its board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.075 per share. The dividend will be paid on September 10, 2025 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 22, 2025.
Full Year 2025 and Third Quarter Outlook
For the full year, the Company expects reported sales to be down in the range of 7.0% to 8.5%. Full year adjusted EPS is expected to be within a range of $0.83 to $0.90. The Company expects 2025 adjusted free cash flow to be approximately $100 million, which includes $17 million in cash proceeds from the sale of two owned facilities.
In the third quarter, the Company expects reported sales to be down within a range of 5.0% to 8.0% and adjusted EPS within a range of $0.21 to $0.24.
Both the full year and third quarter outlooks reflect a cautious view of the demand environment in reaction to evolving trade policies and continued softness in consumer and business discretionary spending.
“While the demand environment remains soft due to evolving trade policy, we do expect trends to improve in the second half of the year. We are confident in our long-term strategy to improve revenue trends and optimize our cost structure and are executing well against our strategic initiatives. We remain optimistic about our future and are confident in our leading brands,” concluded Mr. Tedford.

Aviv Sher, CEO of Codere Online, stated, “Our net gaming revenue reached €54.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, slightly above the prior year period despite the headwinds we faced across most of our markets. In Mexico, we were successful in growing net gaming revenue despite the 19% devaluation of the Mexican peso and grew our portfolio of active customers in the country by an impressive 36% versus Q2 2024.”
Oscar Iglesias, CFO of Codere Online, commented, “We continue to see strong underlying trends in Mexico, where our net gaming revenue grew by 23% in local currency. With the first half of the year now behind us, and notwithstanding that a number of challenges still remain, we continue to expect to meet our net gaming revenue outlook of €220-230 million and Adj. EBITDA outlook of €10-15 million that we shared earlier this year.”

Note on Rounding. Due to decimal rounding, numbers presented throughout this report may not add up precisely to the totals and subtotals provided, and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.
Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this document may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Codere Online Luxembourg, S.A. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Codere Online”) or Codere Online’s or its management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this document may include, for example, statements about Codere Online’s financial performance and, in particular, the potential evolution and distribution of its net gaming revenue; any prospective and illustrative financial information; and changes in Codere Online’s strategy, future operations and target addressable market, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans.
These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this document and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Codere Online’s or its management team’s views as of any subsequent date, and Codere Online does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, Codere Online’s actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that Codere Online does not presently know or that Codere Online currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include (i) changes in applicable laws or regulations, including online gaming, privacy, data use and data protection rules and regulations as well as consumers’ heightened expectations regarding proper safeguarding of their personal information, (ii) the impacts and ongoing uncertainties created by regulatory restrictions, changes in perceptions of the gaming industry, changes in policies and increased competition, and geopolitical events such as war, (iii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations and identify and realize additional opportunities, (iv) the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which Codere Online operates, (v) the risk that Codere Online and its current and future collaborators are unable to successfully develop and commercialize Codere Online’s services, or experience significant delays in doing so, (vi) the risk that Codere Online may never achieve or sustain profitability, (vii) the risk that Codere Online will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all, (viii) the risk that Codere Online experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations, (ix) the risk that third-party providers, including the Codere Group, are not able to fully and timely meet their obligations, (x) the risk that the online gaming operations will not provide the expected benefits due to, among other things, the inability to obtain or maintain online gaming licenses in the anticipated time frame or at all, (xi) the risk that Codere Online is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property, (xii) the risk that Codere Online’s securities may be delisted from Nasdaq and (xiii) the possibility that Codere Online may be adversely affected by other political, economic, business, and/or competitive factors. Additional information concerning certain of these and other risk factors is contained in Codere Online’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning Codere Online or other matters and attributable to Codere Online or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above.
Financial Information and Non-GAAP Financial Measures Codere Online’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”), which can differ in certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
This document includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS (“non-GAAP”), such as, without limitation, net gaming revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and constant currency information. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing Codere Online’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to revenue, net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under U.S. GAAP or IFRS. You should be aware that Codere Online’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. In addition, the audit of Codere Online’s financial statements in accordance with PCAOB standards, may impact how Codere Online currently calculates its non-GAAP financial measures, and we cannot assure you that there would not be differences, and such differences could be material.
Codere Online believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in comparing Codere Online’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable measure under IFRS are included herein.
This document may include certain projections of non-GAAP financial measures. Codere Online is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP or IFRS financial measures without unreasonable effort, due to the inherent difficulty and variability of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such comparable measures or such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, ascertained or assessed, which could have a material impact on its future IFRS financial results. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable U.S. GAAP or IFRS measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is included.
Use of Projections This document contains financial forecasts with respect to Codere Online’s business and projected financial results, including net gaming revenue and adjusted EBITDA. Codere Online’s independent auditors have not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this document, and accordingly, they did not express an opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this document. These projections should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. The assumptions and estimates underlying the prospective financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information. See “Forward-Looking Statements” above. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the prospective results are indicative of the future performance of Codere Online or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the prospective financial information. Inclusion of the prospective financial information in this document should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the prospective financial information will be achieved.
For further information on the limitations and assumptions underlying these projections, please refer to Codere Online’s filings with the SEC.
Preliminary Information This document contains figures, financial metrics, statistics and other information that is preliminary and subject to change (the “Preliminary Information”). The Preliminary Information has not been audited, reviewed, or compiled by any independent registered public accounting firm. This Preliminary Information is subject to ongoing review including, where applicable, by Codere Online’s independent auditors. Accordingly, no independent registered public accounting firm has expressed an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to the Preliminary Information. During the course of finalizing such Preliminary Information, adjustments to such Preliminary Information presented herein may be identified, which may be material. Codere Online undertakes no obligation to update or revise the Preliminary Information set forth in this document as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. The Preliminary Information may differ from actual results. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance upon this Preliminary Information. The Preliminary Information is not a comprehensive statement of financial results, and should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the Preliminary Information is not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved in any future period.
No Offer or Solicitation This document does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor will there be any sale of securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities will be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom.
