BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (NASDAQ: BMRN) (BioMarin or the Company) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.

Total Net Product Revenues for the third of quarter 2019 increased to $450.9 million, compared to $386.3 million for the third quarter of 2018. The increase in Net Product Revenues was attributed to the following:

    --  Vimizim Net Product Revenues increased by $40.2 million, or 33%, driven
        primarily by increased sales volume driven by government orders in
        certain Middle Eastern countries, a large order from Brazil as well as
        smaller orders from other Latin American countries;
    --  Palynziq Net Product Revenues increased by $20.0 million, driven by a
        combination of revenue from patients achieving maintenance dosing and
        new patients initiating therapy in the U.S. Palynziq received approval
        from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 2018 and
        launched in the third quarter of that year. Palynziq received European
        Medicines Agency (EMA) approval in May 2019 and commercial sales in
        Europe are expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2019;
    --  Brineura Net Product Revenues increased by $9.9 million, or 100%, due in
        large part by growth in the number of patients across all regions; and
    --  Kuvan Net Product Revenues increased by $7.3 million, or 6%, primarily
        driven by an increase in the number of patients in North America;
        partially offset by
    --  Naglazyme Net Product Revenues decreased by $8.7 million, or 8%,
        primarily due to decreased sales volume driven by government ordering
        patterns from certain Latin American and European countries; and
    --  Aldurazyme Net Product Revenues decreased $4.8 million, due to the
        timing of customer acceptance for product shipped to Genzyme in the
        third quarter for which no revenue was recognized as of September 30,
        2019.

The increase in GAAP Net Income for the third quarter of 2019, compared to GAAP Net Loss the same period in 2018 was primarily due to the following:

    --  increased gross profits of $51.3 million driven by increased product
        sales;
    --  increased tax benefit, which is primarily attributed to quarterly
        fluctuations in the mix and timing of our profits and losses on a
        territorial basis and reversals of certain tax reserves that were no
        longer required, partially offset by
    --  higher selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense related to
        pre-commercialization activities for valoctocogene roxaparvovec, support
        of the EU commercial launch and continued U.S. expansion of Palynziq,
        and increased general and administrative expense primarily attributed to
        personnel-related costs resulting from increased headcount to support
        our growth; and
    --  higher research and development (R&D) expense related to preclinical
        activities for BMN 307 and clinical activities for the Company's
        vosoritide and valoctocogene roxaparvovec development programs,
        partially offset by decreased R&D expense related to Palynziq for which
        we began capitalizing manufacturing costs upon FDA approval in May 2018,
        and a decrease in tralesinidase alfa clinical manufacturing costs. R&D
        expenses in the quarter were consistent with 2019 guidance despite the
        acceleration of the valoctocogene roxaparvovec development program and
        subsequent activities implemented to pursue an expedited regulatory path
        forward.

GAAP Net Income (Loss) Guidance for the full-year 2019 was narrowed to the low-end of the previously reported range to a loss of between $45 million to $65 million, reflecting continued expense management and strong net product sales.

Non-GAAP Income for the third quarter of 2019 increased $17.4 million, or 29%, to $78.1 million, compared to $60.7 million for the same period in 2018. The increase in Non-GAAP Income for the quarter, compared to the same period in 2018, was attributed to higher gross profit and driven by R&D expense management, partially offset by higher SG&A expense. The increase in Non-GAAP Income for the third quarter of 2019 resulted in narrowed full-year Non-GAAP income guidance to the high-end of the previously reported the range to between $150 million and $170 million.

As of September 30, 2019, BioMarin had cash, cash equivalents and investments totaling approximately $1.2 billion, as compared to $1.3 billion on December 31, 2018.

Commenting on third quarter results, Jean-Jacques Bienaimé, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BioMarin, said, "BioMarin is entering a stage that I believe will bring significant growth as we get closer to submitting marketing applications for valoctocogene roxaparvovec for severe hemophilia A and a pivotal data read-out for vosoritide for children with achondroplasia. These potential new products, combined with our strong base business and continued financial discipline, position us for significant growth and expansion beginning in the very near future. Later this quarter, both the U.S. and European marketing applications for valoctocogene roxaparvovec for severe hemophilia A will be submitted. If the applications are approved, we could potentially be launching the first approved gene therapy product in hemophilia A in the second half of 2020. We are also encouraged by the recent recommendation by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to grant our request for accelerated assessment of valoctocogene roxaparvovec for severe hemophilia A. We are very pleased with the level of engagement we have had with global health authorities, as it aligns with our belief that gene therapy will be the next wave of innovation for treating people with severe hemophilia A."

Mr. Bienaimé continued, "After valoctocogene roxaparvovec, vosoritide for the treatment of children with achondroplasia is our next significant commercial opportunity. Phase 3 results with vosoritide are expected by year-end. Our most recently initiated study with vosoritide, a global Phase 2 in infants and young children (less than 60 months old), is rounding the corner to complete enrollment. All subjects from ages 2 through 5 years have been enrolled. The second cohort, which includes children ages 6 months through 2 years old will complete by year-end, and the youngest cohort, infants up to 6 months old, has recently started enrolling. Interest in this study with very young children has been extremely robust, demonstrating that families are interested in treatment for their children as early as possible. Our most recently approved product, Palynziq for the treatment of phenylketonuria, is on a very strong launch trajectory since approval last year in the U.S. We have been very pleased with the pace of the U.S. launch, as we ended the third quarter with 670 patients on reimbursed Palynziq, and an additional 153 naïve patients having completed enrollment and awaiting their first injection. Building on this success, and as part of our strategy to further build our presence in the PKU market, we submitted the clinical trial application (CTA) for BMN 307, our gene therapy product for PKU, in September. BMN 307 demonstrated lifetime normalization of Phe in a validated PKU mouse model, and as a result, we believe it has the potential to be an important new treatment and market expander as part of our PKU franchise."

Key Program Highlights

    --  Valoctocogene roxaparvovec gene therapy for hemophilia A: The European
        Medicines Agency (EMA) recently granted BioMarin's request for
        accelerated assessment of valoctocogene roxaparvovec, for adults with
        severe hemophilia A. Accelerated assessment reduces the time-frame for
        the EMA Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) and
        Committee for Advanced Therapies (CAT) to review a Marketing
        Authorization Application (MAA) for an Advanced Therapy Medicinal
        Product (ATMP). Applications are eligible for accelerated assessment if
        the CHMP and CAT decide the product is of major interest for public
        health, particularly from the point of view of therapeutic innovation.
        Evaluating a MAA under the EMA centralized procedure can take up to 210
        days, not counting clock stops when applicants are requested to provide
        additional information. On request, the CHMP and CAT can reduce the
        time-frame to 150 days if the applicant provides sufficient
        justification for an accelerated assessment. The decision to grant
        accelerated assessment has no impact on the eventual CHMP and CAT
        opinion on whether a marketing authorization should be granted.On July
        8, the Company announced that based on recent meetings with health
        authorities in the U.S. and Europe, it plans to submit marketing
        applications to both the FDA and the EMA in the fourth quarter of 2019
        for valoctocogene roxaparvovec with the 6e13 vg/kg dose. The submissions
        will be based on the recently completed Phase 3 interim analysis and the
        updated three-year Phase 1/2 data of patients treated with valoctocogene
        roxaparvovec. Both submissions are expected to represent the first time
        a gene therapy product for any type of hemophilia indication will be
        reviewed for marketing authorization by health authorities.Enrollment in
        the GENEr8-1 Phase 3 study is expected to be complete by R&D Day with
        52-week results from the 130 subjects expected at the end of 2020.
        Although the trial is open label, BioMarin has implemented a data access
        plan designed to significantly mirror a blinded trial. This restricts
        the release of any ongoing data to a small group of medical personnel
        monitoring and managing the trial, and then, only to the extent
        necessary to perform their monitoring responsibilities.The Company has
        chosen to cease development of the 4e13 vg/kg dose of valoctocogene
        roxaparvovec given the overwhelming preference by patients to be treated
        with the 6e13 vg/kg dose.BioMarin intends to provide a 4 year update
        with the 6e13 vg/kg dose subjects and a 3 year update with the 4e13
        vg/kg dose subjects from the ongoing Phase 2 study in mid-2020.




    --  Palynziq for PKU: Palynziq, an injection to reduce blood Phe
        concentrations in adult patients with PKU, was added to BioMarin's
        commercial product portfolio upon its U.S. approval May 2018. As of
        September 30, 2019, 670 patients were on reimbursed Palynziq, with an
        additional 153 naïve patients enrolled and awaiting their first
        treatment with commercial Palynziq. Of the 670 patients on therapy at
        the end of the third quarter, 528 were formerly naïve patients and 142
        had transitioned from clinical studies. Of the 125 PKU clinics in the
        U.S., 97 unique clinics had at least one complete patient enrollment in
        the REMS program as of September 30, 2019.On May 6, 2019, the European
        Commission (EC) granted marketing authorization for Palynziq at doses of
        up to 60 milligrams once daily, to reduce blood Phe concentrations in
        patients with PKU aged 16 and older, who have inadequate blood Phe
        control (blood Phe levels greater than 600 micromol/L) despite prior
        management with available treatment options. The Company is in the
        process of securing reimbursement on a country-by-country basis across
        the European Union and anticipates meaningful revenue contributions from
        this region in 2020.






    --  Vosoritide for children with achondroplasia: The vosoritide development
        program includes four distinct areas of focus to support global
        approval, including a large contemporaneous natural history study which
        is underway. The global Phase 3 study is a randomized, double-blind
        placebo-controlled study of vosoritide in approximately 110 children
        with achondroplasia between the ages of 5 to 14 years. Data from this
        study is expected by year-end 2019.The Company plans to share 54-month
        results from the ongoing Phase 2 study with vosoritide in children ages
        5 to 14 years at the upcoming R&D Day planned for November 14. These
        data are expected to corroborate maintenance of effect at the time of
        anticipated marketing application submissions.The fourth component of
        the Company's global development program with vosoritide, includes a
        large Phase 2 study in infants and young children (newborn to 60 months
        old) with achondroplasia, to determine the impact of treatment in this
        age group. Three cohorts, segmented by age, are at various stages of
        enrollment in this study. Cohort 1 includes children ages 24 to 60
        months old and has completed enrollment. Cohort 2 includes children ages
        6 to 24 months old and will complete enrollment by year-end. Cohort 3,
        includes children ages 0 to 6 months old and began enrolling earlier
        this month.




    --  BMN 307 gene therapy product candidate for phenylketonuria (PKU): On
        October 21, 2019, BioMarin was granted Orphan drug designation from the
        FDA for BMN 307 for the treatment of phenylketonuria. On September 26,
        2019, the Company submitted a CTA with the medicines and Healthcare
        Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the U.K.Preclinical data with BMN
        307 demonstrated a lifetime Phe correction sustained at 80 weeks in
        mouse models. BMN 307 is an AAV vector containing the DNA sequence that
        codes for the phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme that is deficient in
        people with PKU. Product to support clinical evaluation is being
        produced at BioMarin's gene therapy manufacturing facility, where
        valoctocogene roxaparvovec is currently made, using a commercial scale
        manufacturing process to facilitate rapid clinical development.


    --  Tralesinidase alfa (formerly referred to as BMN 250) for
        Mucopolysaccharidosis IIIB (MPS IIIB) or Sanfilippo Syndrome, Type B: On
        October 23, 2019, the Company announced that it had entered into a
        licensing agreement with Allievex Corp. (Allievex) for tralesinidase
        alfa, an investigational Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) for MPS IIIB
        or Sanfilippo Syndrome Type B.  Under the terms of the agreement,
        Allievex will receive a worldwide, exclusive license to tralesinidase
        alfa.  BioMarin is entitled to receive a minority equity stake in
        Allievex, milestone payments if certain development, regulatory and
        sales milestones are met by Allievex and royalties on net sales of
        tralesinidase alfa. Upon closing of the transaction, Allievex will
        assume all financial obligations associated with the development and
        commercialization of tralesinidase alfa other than certain continued
        manufacturing activities that will be paid by BioMarin. BioMarin will
        transfer all tralesinidase alfa-related clinical and regulatory activity
        and responsibilities to Allievex during a transition period following
        closing of the transaction. Tralesinidase alfa is currently being
        evaluated in ongoing natural history and clinical trials.

Non-GAAP Information

The results presented in this press release include both GAAP information and Non-GAAP information. As used in this release, Non-GAAP Income is defined by the Company as GAAP Net Income/Loss excluding net interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, contingent consideration expense and, in certain periods, certain other specified items, as detailed below when applicable. In addition, BioMarin includes in this press release the effects of these adjustments on certain components of GAAP Net Income/Loss for each of the periods presented. In this regard, Non-GAAP Income and its components, including Non-GAAP Cost of Sales, Non-GAAP Research and Development expenses, Non-GAAP Selling, General and Administrative expense, Non-GAAP Intangible Asset Amortization and Contingent Consideration, Non-GAAP Gain on the Sale of Intangible Asset and Non-GAAP Benefit From Income Taxes are statement of operations line items prepared on the same basis as, and therefore components of, the overall Non-GAAP measures.

BioMarin regularly uses both GAAP and Non-GAAP results and expectations internally to assess its financial operating performance and evaluate key business decisions related to its principal business activities: the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing and sale of innovative biologic therapies. Because Non-GAAP Income and its components are important internal measurements for BioMarin, the Company believes that providing this information in conjunction with BioMarin's GAAP information enhances investors' and analysts' ability to meaningfully compare the Company's results from period to period and to its forward-looking guidance, and to identify operating trends in the Company's principal business. BioMarin also uses Non-GAAP Income internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and to make operating decisions, and compensation of executives is based in part on this measure.

Non-GAAP Income and its components are not meant to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors should note that the Non-GAAP information is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and does not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors should also note that these Non-GAAP measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. In addition, from time to time in the future there may be other items that the Company may exclude for purposes of its Non-GAAP measures; likewise, the Company may in the future cease to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its Non-GAAP measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions, the Non-GAAP measure as used by BioMarin in this press release and the accompanying tables may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following table presents the reconciliation of GAAP Net Income (Loss) to Non-GAAP Income:
