Impax Reports Third Quarter 2017 Results

HAYWARD, Calif., Nov. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Impax Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ: IPXL), today announced third quarter 2017 financial results.

Total revenues in the third quarter 2017 were $206.4 million, a decrease of 9.4%, compared to $227.9 million in the prior year period as a decrease in sales of generic products was partially offset by an increase in sales of specialty products.

GAAP net loss was $49.4 million or a loss of $0.69 per share for the third quarter 2017, compared to a loss of $179.3 million or a loss of $2.51 per share in the prior year period. The third quarter 2017 results included a reserve charge for pre-launch product inventory due to delays in anticipated regulatory approvals, non-cash intangible asset impairment charges, and restructuring and severance charges related to the Company's operational and cost improvement plans. The third quarter 2016 results include non-cash intangible asset impairment charges primarily related to the products acquired from Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd. and affiliates of Allergan plc (the "Teva Transaction").

Adjusted net income was $16.7 million or $0.23 per share in the third quarter 2017, compared to $26.1 million or $0.37 per share in the prior year period, primarily due to lower product revenue caused by buyer consolidation and additional competition. Refer to the attached "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation of all GAAP to non-GAAP items.

For the third quarter 2017, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) was a loss of $15.4 million, compared to a loss of $247.9 million in the prior year period, primarily as a result of the charges noted above. Adjusted EBITDA was $45.6 million, compared to $58.9 million in the prior year period. Cash and cash equivalents were $157.7 million as of September 30, 2017.

"This quarter saw us execute on our Path Forward long-term growth strategy with the announcement of the pending Amneal Pharmaceuticals transaction," said Paul Bisaro, President and Chief Executive Officer of Impax. "The combination with Amneal will provide multiple opportunities to drive strong future growth, including investment in high-growth specialty assets. This combination will create a more diversified company with one of the industry's leading high-value generic product pipelines with broad R&D capabilities across dosage forms. We are actively engaged in pre-integration planning and continue to target a close in the first half of 2018."

"While our third quarter results were in line with our expectations, we continue to navigate the challenging generic market environment. As such, we accelerated our focus on aligning infrastructure to support standalone revenue and earnings growth, while closely controlling our expenses. We have made significant progress on our operational and cost improvement plan as we currently expect to complete the closure of our Middlesex, New Jersey packaging facility by the end of 2017, ahead of schedule. Additionally, we are in late-stage negotiations for the sale of our Taiwan manufacturing facility. If we are successful in selling our Taiwan facility by the end of the first quarter of 2018, we could realize the anticipated cost savings by the end of 2018, approximately one year ahead of schedule."

Total revenues for the Generics division in the third quarter 2017 were $151.1 million, a decrease of 13.8%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease compared to the prior year period was primarily due to revenue reductions and increased competition on a few key products including metaxalone, fenofibrate and oxymorphone ER, partially offset by higher sales of epinephrine auto-injector, diclofenac sodium gel 3%, new product launches and products acquired as part of the Teva Transaction.

Gross margin in the third quarter 2017 was a loss of 2.4%, compared to a loss of 111.9% in the prior year period, primarily due to lower impairment charges during the current year period, partially offset by new product launch inventory reserves and facility closure costs. Adjusted gross margin in the third quarter 2017 declined to 34.5%, compared to 43.8% in the prior year period, primarily due to product sales mix and an increase in product reserves for short dated inventory and lower-cost-to-market adjustments on a few products acquired in the Teva Transaction,

Total operating expenses in the third quarter 2017 were $17.8 million, compared to $37.2 million in the prior year period. The decline was primarily due to in-process research and development impairment charges in the third quarter 2016 for which there were no comparable amounts in the current year period. Additionally, research and development expenses in the third quarter 2017 declined compared to the prior year period primarily as a result of the closure of the Company's Middlesex, New Jersey research and development facility.

Total revenues for the Impax Specialty Pharma division in the third quarter 2017 were $55.3 million, an increase of 5.1%, compared to the prior year period, driven by higher sales of Rytary(®) and the anthelmintic products franchise, partially offset by lower sales of Zomig(®).

Adjusted gross margin in the third quarter 2017 was 84.6%, compared to 72.5% in the prior year period, primarily due to product sales mix and a decline in short dated inventory reserve.

IPX203 Phase 2b Study Results

The Company recently completed the clinical phase of its Phase 2b study for IPX203, an investigational extended-release formulation of carbidopa-levodopa (CD-LD) in advanced Parkinson's disease patients. The Company is evaluating next steps in the further development of IPX203.

In the multiple dose Phase 2b study, patients achieved an average 2.2 hours reduction in "Off" time during the IPX203 treatment period compared to during the IR CD-LD treatment period and 2.0 hours improvement in "Good On" time based on patient diary data. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) reported in two or more subjects during IPX203 treatment included nausea, dizziness, and dyskinesia. Results from the multiple dose Phase 2b study confirmed earlier results of the Phase 2a single dose study.

The Phase 2b study was a randomized 2-week, multiple dose, multicenter, rater-blinded, active-controlled, crossover clinical trial that evaluated IPX203 compared to immediate-release (IR) CD-LD in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). It enrolled 28 patients, ages 47 to 83 years, at 11 sites in the United States. The study evaluated the safety and efficacy of individualized doses of IPX203 based on a patient's prestudy individualized regimen of CD-LD.

    Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted cost of revenues, adjusted research and development expenses and adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses are not measures of financial
     performance under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be construed as substitutes for, or superior to, GAAP net loss, GAAP net loss per diluted share, GAAP cost of revenues, GAAP research and development expenses and
     GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses as a measure of financial performance. However, management uses both GAAP financial measures and the disclosed non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate and manage the Company's
     operations and to better understand its business. Further, management believes the addition of non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful supplementary information to, and facilitates analysis by, investors in evaluating the Company's
     financial performance, results of operations and trends. The Company's calculations of adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted cost of revenues, adjusted research and development expenses and
     adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses, may not be comparable to similarly designated measures reported by other companies, since companies and investors may differ as to what type of events warrant adjustment.

    (a)                 Reflects amortization of intangible
                        assets from the portfolio of products
                        acquired from Teva Pharmaceuticals
                        Industries Ltd. and affiliates of
                        Allergan plc (the "Teva Transaction")
                        in August 2016 and from the acquisition
                        of Tower Holdings, Inc. and its
                        subsidiaries in March 2015 (the "Tower
                        Acquisition").

    (b)                 Related to non-cash accretion of debt
                         discount attributable to deferred
                         financing costs associated with the
                         $400.0 million term loan facility (the
                         "Term Loan Facility") to finance the
                         Teva Transaction and the $600.0 million
                         of outstanding 2% convertible senior
                         notes, as well as bifurcation of the
                         conversion option of the convertible
                         notes.

    (c)                 Business development expenses are
                        professional fees primarily related to
                        the Teva Transaction and the proposed
                        combination with Amneal Pharmaceuticals
                        that the Company announced in the
                        fourth quarter of 2017.

    (d)                 The Company recognized $13.6 million in
                        intangible asset impairment charges
                        during the three months ended September
                        30, 2017, all of which was recognized
                        in cost of revenues impairment charges
                        and entirely attributable to one
                        currently marketed product, acquired as
                        part of the Teva Transaction. The
                        impairment charge was the result of
                        continued price erosion during the
                        quarter with no offsetting increase in
                        customer demand, resulting in lower
                        expected future cash flows.

    (e)                 The Company recorded a reserve in the
                        amount of $48.0 million during the
                        first quarter 2016, representing the
                        full amount of the estimated receivable
                        due from Turing Pharmaceuticals AG as a
                        result of the uncertainty of the
                        Company collecting the reimbursement
                        amounts owed by Turing related to the
                        Company's sale of Daraprim(R) to
                        Turing. During the fourth quarter of
                        2016, the Company received $7.7 million
                        in payments from Turing. During the
                        nine month period ended September 30,
                        2017, the Company increased the reserve
                        balance by $3.6 million to reflect
                        additional estimated Medicaid rebate
                        claims due from Turing. The Company
                        received an additional $0.9 million of
                        payments from Turing during the second
                        quarter of 2017. As of September 30,
                        2017, the $43.0 million estimated
                        receivable due from Turing was fully
                        reserved.

    (f)                 The Company recorded a credit in the
                        first quarter 2017 for legal fees
                        incurred as a result of the Company's
                        litigation against Turing alleging
                        breach of the terms of the Turing Asset
                        Purchase Agreement in the Company's
                        sale of Daraprim(R) resulting from
                        Turing's failure to reimburse the
                        Company for chargebacks and Medicaid
                        rebate liability.

    (g)                 During the third quarter 2017, the
                        Company recorded restructuring and
                        severance charges of $4.1 million
                        related to the March 2016 announced
                        closure of the Company's Middlesex, New
                        Jersey manufacturing and packaging
                        site. Additionally, the Company
                        recorded restructuring and severance
                        charges of $6.9 million in the third
                        quarter 2017 primarily related to the
                        closure of generic research and
                        development activities at the Middlesex
                        site as well as the announced sale or
                        closure of its Taiwan manufacturing
                        facility as part of the Company's
                        consolidation and improvement plan
                        announced in May 2017. During the third
                        quarter of 2016, the Company recorded
                        restructuring and severance charges of
                        $5.5 million related to the closure of
                        its Middlesex manufacturing and
                        packaging site.

    (h)                 The Company recorded an impairment
                        charge relating to obsolete software in
                        the second quarter 2017.

    (i)                 During the third quarter 2016, the
                        Company consolidated its three
                        Pennsylvania locations into a new
                        leased facility in Fort Washington,
                        Pennsylvania.

    (j)                 During the second quarter 2017, the

                        29 ANDAs and one NDA for non-strategic
                        approved generic products, the vast
                        majority of which were not marketed,
                        and all acquired as part of the Tower
                        Acquisition.

    (k)                 During the third quarter 2017, the
                        Company recognized a gain of $4.4
                        million related to the sale of a
                        storage warehouse in Hayward,

                         principal on Term Loan Facility,
                         resulting in a loss on debt

                         to write-off a pro-rated portion of
