60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: SXTP; SXTPW) reported a significant increase in its financial performance for Q1 2024. The company saw net product revenues surge by 515% year-over-year to $105.7 thousand, driven by domestic sales of ARAKODA®. Gross profit improved from a loss of $55.9 thousand in Q1 2023 to a profit of $51.0 thousand in Q1 2024. However, operating expenses rose to $1.41 million, up from $0.899 million, due to higher R&D costs, commercial promotional costs, and other expenses.
