Research and development expenses decreased by 13% to $43.4 million in Q4, primarily due to decreased development activities of ResVax and lower employee-related costs.
The Q4 earnings come at a crucial point of time for Novavax when it is trading near an all-time low, hammered by a clinical trial failure late last month.
The stock tumbled 65%, wiping off around $500 million of its market value after it emerged that its respiratory disorder vaccine failed to meet the primary end-point in the late-stage clinical study.
