Journey Medical shows improved margins from their new Emrosi rosacea drug launch, but still operates at a loss despite stable revenue.
Journey Medical's Q1 2025 financial results showcase both promise and ongoing challenges. Revenue remained essentially flat year-over-year at

The publication of Emrosi's Phase 3 results in JAMA Dermatology demonstrating superiority to both placebo and competing product Oracea, combined with inclusion in the National Rosacea Society's treatment algorithms, provides strong clinical validation that should support adoption. However, investors should note that despite improvements, the company continues to operate at a loss, and the success of Emrosi's commercialization will be critical for reaching profitability.
The launch of Journey Medical's Emrosi (40 mg Minocycline Hydrochloride Modified-Release Capsules) represents a significant development in rosacea treatment. The publication of their Phase 3 results in JAMA Dermatology - one of the field's most prestigious journals - is particularly noteworthy. The data demonstrated statistical superiority against both Oracea (the current leading oral therapy) and placebo with a favorable safety profile when administered once daily for 16 weeks.
This therapeutic advantage is clinically meaningful. Current oral treatments for rosacea often present challenges including gastrointestinal side effects and variable efficacy. A more effective oral option with a clean safety profile addresses an important treatment gap. The National Rosacea Society's rapid incorporation of Emrosi into their treatment algorithms further validates its clinical significance and should accelerate adoption among dermatologists.
The timing of the American Academy of Dermatology conference booth coinciding with the launch was strategically sound, as this annual meeting represents the largest gathering of prescribing dermatologists. The promotional visibility at this critical event, coupled with the JAMA publication and algorithm inclusion, creates a powerful launch platform. For patients with moderate-to-severe rosacea who have struggled with topical treatments, this oral option that demonstrated superiority to the current standard could represent a meaningful advancement in disease management.
The absence of specific efficacy metrics in the press release is the only limitation in fully assessing Emrosi's clinical impact, but the statistical superiority claim against an established competitor suggests the improvement is clinically relevant. As payer coverage continues to expand, this treatment could potentially become the preferred oral therapy for rosacea patients requiring systemic treatment.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures:
In addition to the GAAP financial measures as presented in our Form 10-Q that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company has, in this press release, included certain non-GAAP measurements, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA per share basic and Adjusted EBITDA per share diluted. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding interest, taxes and depreciation, less certain other non-cash and infrequent items not considered to be normal, recurring operating expenses, including, share-based compensation expense, amortization and impairments of acquired intangible assets, inventory step-ups from the purchases of intangibles assets and products, severance, short-term research and development expense and foreign exchange transaction losses. In particular, we exclude the following matters for the reasons more fully described below:
- Share-Based Compensation Expense: We exclude share-based compensation from our adjusted financial results because share-based compensation expense, which is non-cash, fluctuates from period to period based on factors that are not within our control, such as our stock price on the dates share-based grants are issued.
- Non-core and Short-term Research and Development Expense: We exclude research and development costs incurred principally in connection with Emrosi, which was the only product in our portfolio not currently approved for marketing and sale during the prior-year reporting period, because we do not consider such costs to be normal, recurring operating expenses that are core to our long-term strategy. Instead, our long-term strategy is focused on the marketing and sale of our core FDA-approved dermatological products and the out licensing our intellectual property and related technologies.
- Amortization and impairments of Acquired Intangible assets: We exclude the impact of certain amounts recorded in connection with the acquisitions of intangible assets that are either non-cash or not normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing. These amounts may include non-cash items such as the amortization impairments of acquired intangible assets and amortization of step-ups of acquisition accounting adjustments to inventories.
Adjusted EBITDA per share basic and Adjusted EBITDA per share diluted are determined by dividing the resulting Adjusted EBITDA by the number of shares outstanding on an actual and fully diluted basis.
Management believes the use of these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance because (i) it allows for greater transparency with respect to key measures used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, (ii) it excludes the impact of non-cash or, when specified, non-recurring items that are not directly attributable to the Company’s core operating performance and that may obscure trends in the Company’s core operating performance and (iii) it is used by institutional investors and the analyst community to help analyze the Company's results. However, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA per share basic, Adjusted EBITDA per share diluted and any other non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further, non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company and the manner in which they are calculated may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures or the calculations of the same non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, including the Company’s competitors.
The table below provides a reconciliation from GAAP to non-GAAP measures:
