Celgene Reports Third Quarter 2016 Operating and Financial Results

- Net Product Sales $2.97B in Q3:16; Increased 28% Y/Y

- 2016 Guidance and 2017 Targets Updated

- Over 150 Abstracts Expected at Medical Congresses in Q4

- FDA Grants Priority Review for REVLIMID® as Maintenance Treatment Post-Autologous Stem-Cell Transplant in Multiple Myeloma

SUMMIT, N.J.--()--Celgene Corporation (NASDAQ:CELG) reported net product sales of $2,969 million for the third quarter of 2016, a 28 percent increase from the same period in 2015. Net product sales growth includes a 1 percent negative impact from currency exchange effects. Third quarter total revenue increased 28 percent to $2,983 million compared to $2,334 million in the third quarter of 2015.

Net income for the third quarter of 2016 based on U.S. GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), was $171 million or $0.21 per diluted share compared to a net loss of $34 million or $0.04 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2015. The results for the third quarter of 2016 include increased research and development expenses as a result of the EngMab AG acquisition. The net loss in the third quarter of 2015 reflected costs related to strategic transactions including the collaboration with Juno Therapeutics and the acquisition of Receptos.

Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2016 was $1,263 million or $1.58 per diluted share compared to $1,011 million or $1.23 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2015.

“Continued outstanding execution by our teams around the world led to another strong quarter of revenue growth and progress advancing many of our most important strategic programs,” said Mark J. Alles, Chief Executive Officer of Celgene Corporation. “Our increasing enterprise-wide momentum has us on-track to exceed key 2016 objectives and positions us well for sustained long-term growth.”

Third Quarter 2016 Financial Highlights

Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons are for the third quarter of 2016 compared to the third quarter of 2015. The adjusted operating expense categories presented below exclude share-based employee compensation expense, collaboration-related upfront expense, research and development asset acquisition expense and a litigation-related loss contingency accrual expense. Please see the attached Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted Net Income for further information relevant to the interpretation of adjusted financial measures and reconciliations of these adjusted financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures, respectively.

Net Product Sales Performance

  • REVLIMID® sales for the third quarter increased 30 percent year-over-year to $1,891 million and were driven by new patient market share gains and increased duration. U.S. sales of $1,153 million and international sales of $738 million increased 29 percent and 32 percent year-over-year, respectively.
  • POMALYST®/IMNOVID® sales for the third quarter were $341 million, an increase of 33 percent year-over-year. U.S. sales were $203 million and international sales were $138 million, an increase of 35 percent and 30 percent year-over-year, respectively. POMALYST®/IMNOVID® sales grew due to increased volume from duration gains.
  • OTEZLA® sales for the third quarter were $275 million, a 98 percent increase year-over-year. U.S. sales were $245 million and international sales were $30 million. Sales were driven by market share gains and increased prescriber adoption.
  • ABRAXANE® sales for the third quarter were $233 million, a 1 percent increase year-over-year. U.S. sales of $144 million decreased 1 percent year-over-year. International sales were $89 million.
  • In the third quarter, all other product sales, which include THALOMID®, ISTODAX®, VIDAZA® and an authorized generic version of VIDAZA® drug product in the U.S., were $229 million compared to $234 million in the third quarter of 2015.

Research and Development (R&D)

On a GAAP basis, R&D expenses were $1,653 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $1,305 million for the same period in 2015. The increase was primarily driven by a $623.3 million asset acquisition expense associated with the purchase of EngMab AG and an increase in early research and clinical trial activity, partially offset by decreases in expenses related to collaboration-related upfront expenses. Adjusted R&D expenses were $644 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $488 million for the third quarter of 2015.

Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A)

On a GAAP basis, SG&A expenses were $698 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $550 million for the same period in 2015. The increase was primarily due to a 2016 litigation-related loss contingency accrual expense as well as an increase in donations to independent patient assistance organizations. Adjusted SG&A expenses were $591 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $474 million for the third quarter of 2015.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities

Operating cash flow was $723 million in the third quarter of 2016. Celgene ended the quarter with approximately $6.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.

In the third quarter of 2016, Celgene purchased approximately 2.5 million of its shares at a total cost of approximately $273 million. As of September 30, 2016, the Company had approximately $4.9 billion remaining under the stock repurchase program.

Business Update

In September, Celgene completed a transaction to acquire Switzerland-based, privately-held biotechnology company EngMab AG for $625.3 million plus contingent development, regulatory and commercial milestones. EngMab’s lead molecule is EM901, a T-cell bi-specific antibody targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). The acquisition includes an additional undisclosed program. The Company plans to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for EM901 in late 2017. The transaction was accounted as an asset acquisition, resulting in $623.3 million of research and development expense and $2.0 million of net working capital acquired.

Forward-Looking Statement

This press release contains forward-looking statements, which are generally statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the words "expects," "anticipates," "believes," "intends," "estimates," "plans," "will," “outlook” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current plans, estimates, assumptions and projections, and speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement in light of new information or future events, except as otherwise required by law. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control. Actual results or outcomes may differ materially from those implied by the forward-looking statements as a result of the impact of a number of factors, many of which are discussed in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this document also contains certain non-GAAP financial measures based on management’s view of performance including:

  • Adjusted research and development expense
  • Adjusted selling, general and administrative expense
  • Adjusted operating margin
  • Adjusted net income
  • Adjusted earnings per share

Management uses such measures internally for planning and forecasting purposes and to measure the performance of the Company. We believe these adjusted financial measures provide useful and meaningful information to us and investors because they enhance investors’ understanding of the continuing operating performance of our business and facilitate the comparison of performance between past and future periods. These adjusted financial measures are non-GAAP measures and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When preparing these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures we typically exclude certain GAAP items that management does not consider to be normal, recurring, cash operating expenses but that may not meet the definition of unusual or non-recurring items. Other companies may define these measures in different ways. The following categories of items are excluded from adjusted financial results:

Acquisition and Divestiture-Related Costs: We exclude the impact of certain amounts recorded in connection with business combinations and divestitures from our adjusted financial results 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 of acquired intangible assets, amortization of purchase accounting adjustments to inventories, intangible asset impairment charges and expense or income related to changes in the estimated fair value measurement of contingent consideration. We also exclude transaction and certain other cash costs associated with business acquisitions and divestitures that are not normal recurring operating expenses, including severance costs which are not part of a formal restructuring program.

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.

Collaboration-related Upfront Expenses: We exclude collaboration-related upfront expenses from our adjusted financial results because we do not consider them to be normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing. Upfront payments to collaboration partners are made at the commencement of a relationship anticipated to continue for a multi-year period and provide us with intellectual property rights, option rights and other rights with respect to particular programs. The variability of amounts and lack of predictability of collaboration-related upfront expenses makes the identification of trends in our ongoing research and development activities more difficult. We believe the presentation of adjusted research and development, which does not include collaboration-related upfront expenses, provides useful and meaningful information about our ongoing research and development activities by enhancing investors’ understanding of our normal, recurring operating research and development expenses and facilitates comparisons between periods and with respect to projected performance. All expenses incurred subsequent to the initiation of the collaboration arrangement, such as research and development cost-sharing expenses/reimbursements and milestone payments up to the point of regulatory approval are considered to be normal, recurring operating expenses and are included in our adjusted financial results.

Research and Development Asset Acquisition Expense: We exclude costs associated with acquiring rights to pre-commercial compounds because we do not consider such costs to be normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing. Research and development asset acquisition expenses includes expenses to acquire rights to pre-commercial compounds from a collaboration partner when there will be no further participation from the collaboration partner or other parties. The variability of amounts and lack of predictability of research and development asset acquisition expenses makes the identification of trends in our ongoing research and development activities more difficult. We believe the presentation of adjusted research and development, which does not include research and development asset acquisition expenses, provides useful and meaningful information about our ongoing research and development activities by enhancing investors’ understanding of our normal, recurring operating research and development expenses and facilitates comparisons between periods and with respect to projected performance.

Restructuring Costs: We exclude costs associated with restructuring initiatives from our adjusted financial results. These costs include amounts associated with facilities to be closed, employee separation costs and costs to move operations from one location to another. We do not frequently undertake restructuring initiatives and therefore do not consider such costs to be normal, recurring operating expenses.

Certain Other Items: We exclude certain other significant items that may occur occasionally and are not normal, recurring, cash operating expenses from our adjusted financial results. Such items are evaluated on an individual basis based on both the quantitative and the qualitative aspect of their nature and generally represent items that, either as a result of their nature or magnitude, we would not anticipate occurring as part of our normal business on a regular basis. While not all-inclusive, examples of certain other significant items excluded from adjusted financial results would be: expenses for significant litigation-related loss contingency accruals and expenses to settle other disputed matters.

Estimated Tax Impact From Above Adjustments: We exclude the net income tax impact of the non-tax adjustments described above from our adjusted financial results. The net income tax impact of the non-tax adjustments includes the impact on both current and deferred income taxes and is based on the taxability of the adjustment under local tax law and the statutory tax rate in the tax jurisdiction where the adjustment was incurred.

Non-Operating Tax Adjustments: We exclude the net income tax impact of certain other significant income tax items, which are not associated with our normal, recurring operations (“Non-Operating Tax Items”), from our adjusted financial results. Non-Operating Tax Items include items which may occur occasionally and are not normal, recurring operating expenses (or benefits), including adjustments related to acquisitions, divestitures, collaborations, certain adjustments to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits related to prior year tax positions, and other similar items.

Long-Term Targets

A reconciliation of long-term adjusted financial targets to the most comparable GAAP measures cannot be provided because we are unable to forecast with reasonable certainty many of the items necessary to calculate such comparable GAAP measures, including share-based compensation expense, collaboration-related upfront expense, research and development asset acquisition expense, acquisition-related expenses, fair value adjustments to contingent consideration, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings and unusual gains and losses, as well as unforeseen events, risks and developments. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP. We believe the inherent uncertainties in reconciling our long-term non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures would make the forecasted comparable GAAP measures nearly impossible to predict with reasonable certainty and therefore inherently unreliable.

See the attached Reconciliations of GAAP to Adjusted Net Income for explanations of the amounts excluded and included to arrive at the adjusted measures for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and for the projected amounts for the year ending December 31, 2016.
