Jazz Pharmaceuticals Announces First Quarter 2020 Financial Results

DUBLIN, May 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq: JAZZ) today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2020 and updated 2020 financial guidance.

"During this unprecedented time, I am proud of the commitment of our Jazz employees to supporting the continued delivery of our essential medicines to patients around the world," said Bruce Cozadd, chairman and chief executive officer of Jazz Pharmaceuticals. "Based on these efforts, we generated revenues of $535 million in the first quarter and continued to make progress toward our key 2020 objectives. JZP-258 and lurbinectedin received priority review with PDUFA action dates in the third quarter and, if approved, provide us the opportunity to deliver two new important treatment options to patients as early as the second half of this year. Following the EMA approval this January, we are poised to commence the rolling launch of Sunosi in Europe, beginning in Germany this month. In addition, we progressed patient enrollment in our pivotal study of JZP-458 and completed enrollment in our Phase 3 study of JZP-258 in idiopathic hypersomnia."

"Although we experienced limited financial impact of COVID-19 in the first quarter, we have updated our financial guidance to reflect the potential impact on our business for the remainder of 2020. We are proactively managing our operating expenses and prioritizing investments in our most important current and future revenue drivers," continued Mr. Cozadd. "We are excited about the opportunities ahead for Jazz and remain focused on diversifying our portfolio of essential medicines to provide innovative and life-changing options for patients. Our positive cash flow, strong balance sheet and access to significant additional liquidity position us well to manage through the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business while continuing to drive future growth for shareholders."

     ____________________________



     1.               Commencing in 2020, following consultation with the staff of the
                        Division of Corporation Finance of the U.S. Securities and
                        Exchange Commission, the company no longer excludes upfront and
                        milestone payments from the company's non-GAAP adjusted net
                        income, its line item components and non-GAAP adjusted EPS. For
                        purposes of comparability, non-GAAP adjusted financial measures
                        for the first quarter of 2019 have been updated to reflect this
                        change. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2020 was $157.8 million, or $2.82 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $85.2 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2019. GAAP net loss and non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2020 included the post-tax impact of a $200.0 million upfront payment made to Pharma Mar, S.A. (PharmaMar) for the exclusive U.S. commercialization and development rights to lurbinectedin.

GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2020 also included the post-tax impact of an impairment charge of $136.1 million following the company's decision to stop enrollment in its Phase 3 clinical study of defibrotide for the prevention of veno-occlusive disease (VOD) due to an Independent Data Monitoring Committee determination that the study is highly unlikely to reach its primary endpoint.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income decreased in the first quarter of 2020 to $25.8 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, from $164.2 million, or $2.83 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019. Reconciliations of applicable GAAP reported to non-GAAP adjusted information are included at the end of this press release.

Corporate Overview

Sleep and Neuroscience

    --  Xyrem: During the quarter, bottle volume growth was 5% and average
        active patients on therapy grew 3% compared to the first quarter of
        2019. The company observed a decline in new patient enrollments in
        connection with COVID-19 beginning in mid-March. Given the importance of
        managing narcolepsy, a serious and chronic disease, the company believes
        that the demand for Xyrem in 2020 will remain strong.
    --  Sunosi: First quarter prescriptions increased 41% from the fourth
        quarter 2019, and more than 80% of commercially insured U.S. patients
        have access to coverage for Sunosi. Sales were impacted by physician
        office closures, and pulmonologists, a key physician audience managing
        obstructive sleep apnea, refocusing care to patients with acute
        respiratory distress syndrome, as a result of COVID-19. The European
        rolling launch will begin in Germany this month.
    --  JZP-258: In March 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
        accepted for filing with priority review the New Drug Application (NDA)
        for JZP-258 for the treatment of cataplexy and excessive daytime
        sleepiness (EDS) in narcolepsy patients 7 years of age and older with a
        Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) action date of July 21, 2020. The
        company has not been notified of any delays to the PDUFA action date.
        Additionally, the company completed patient enrollment in the Phase 3
        pivotal study for the treatment of idiopathic hypersomnia, in the first
        quarter.

Hematology/Oncology

    --  Lurbinectedin: In February 2020, FDA accepted for filing with priority
        review the NDA seeking accelerated approval for lurbinectedin for the
        treatment of patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) with a
        PDUFA action date of August 16, 2020. FDA has indicated that an advisory
        committee meeting is not currently planned.
    --  JZP-458: Enrollment is ongoing in the single-arm, pivotal Phase 2/3
        study, additional sites continue to activate and the company expects to
        submit the Biologics License Application (BLA) as early as fourth
        quarter this year.
    --  Defitelio (defibrotide sodium)/defibrotide: The company is providing
        defibrotide to support multiple investigator-sponsored trials to
        evaluate its use in COVID-19 patients with acute respiratory distress
        syndrome. Top-line results from the Phase 2 study for prevention of
        acute graft-versus-host disease are expected in the second half of 2020.

Total revenues increased 5% in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.

    --  Total net product sales increased 5% in the first quarter of 2020
        compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to the double-digit
        growth in Xyrem, Defitelio and Vyxeos net sales, partially offset by a
        decrease in Erwinaze net sales due to ongoing supply and manufacturing
        issues at the sole manufacturer.
    --  Xyrem net product sales increased 11% in the first quarter of 2020
        compared to the same period in 2019.
    --  Erwinaze/Erwinase net product sales decreased 38% in the first quarter
        of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The company continues to
        expect inter-quarter variability in Erwinaze net sales due to timing and
        availability of supply.
    --  Defitelio/defibrotide net product sales increased 14% in the first
        quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The company
        continues to expect inter-quarter variability in Defitelio/defibrotide
        net sales as VOD is an ultra-rare complication of hematopoietic
        stem-cell transplantation.
    --  Vyxeos net product sales increased 13% in the first quarter of 2020
        compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to continuing growth
        in Europe.
    --  Sunosi net product sales were $1.9 million in first quarter of 2020.
        While Sunosi total prescriptions increased 41% in the first quarter of
        2020 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, net sales in the first
        quarter of 2020 were negatively impacted by higher gross-to-net
        deductions due to increased coupon utilization. The company launched
        Sunosi in the U.S. in July 2019.

Operating expenses increased over the prior year period primarily due to the following:

    --  Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased in the
        first quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 on a GAAP and
        on a non-GAAP adjusted basis due to higher sales and marketing expenses
        related to the company's products and pre-launch commercialization
        activities for product candidates as well as an increase in other
        expenses related to the expansion of the company's business.
    --  Research and development (R&D) expenses increased in the first quarter
        of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 on a GAAP and on a non-GAAP
        adjusted basis primarily due to expenses related to the company's
        expanding pre-clinical and clinical development programs, including
        JZP-458 and JZP-258 in idiopathic hypersomnia.
    --  Acquired in-process research and development expenses on a GAAP and on a
        non-GAAP adjusted basis included a $200.0 million upfront payment to
        PharmaMar for the exclusive U.S. commercialization and development
        rights to lurbinectedin in the first quarter of 2020 and an upfront
        payment of $56.0 million to Codiak BioSciences, Inc. under a
        collaboration agreement in the first quarter of 2019.
    --  In the first quarter of 2020, the company recorded an impairment charge
        of $136.1 million on a GAAP basis following the company's decision to
        stop enrollment in its Phase 3 clinical study of defibrotide for the
        prevention of VOD due to an Independent Data Monitoring Committee
        determination that it is highly unlikely that the study will reach its
        primary endpoint.

Cash Flow and Balance Sheet

As of March 31, 2020, cash, cash equivalents and investments were $1.0 billion, and the outstanding principal balance of the company's long-term debt was $1.8 billion. During the first quarter of 2020, the company generated $273.0 million of cash from operations, made an upfront payment of $200.0 million to PharmaMar under a license agreement and used $139.1 million to repurchase shares under the company's share repurchase program.

                        for May 5, 2020 guidance; included in Revenues and Total net
                        product sales as of each date.

    --  In the COVID-19 environment, the guidance update reflects management's
        current expectations and includes the impact of factors such as declines
        in medical visits, fewer patients accessing treatment, declines in sales
        representative access to healthcare providers with social distancing,
        government imposed stay-at-home orders within Europe and the U.S.,
        closure of offices and treatment centers and shifting of healthcare
        system focus to caring for COVID-19 patients, increased unemployment,
        and loss of healthcare coverage.
        --  Specifically in the sleep and neuroscience therapeutic area: the
            guidance also includes the impact of declines in diagnostic testing
            leading to decreased narcolepsy and OSA diagnoses.
        --  Specifically in the hematology/oncology therapeutic area: the
            guidance also includes the impact of postponement of procedures such
            as hematopoietic stem cell transplantations and recommendations
            shifting the care of cancer patients to the outpatient setting,
            reducing the number of treated patients.
    --  Operating Expenses: guidance includes proactive management of operating
        expenses following prioritization of investments in the company's most
        important current and future revenue drivers.

     1.               Excludes $8-$9 million of share-based compensation expense from
                        estimated GAAP gross margin.





     2.               Excludes $85-$93 million of share-based compensation expense from
                        estimated GAAP SG&A expenses.





     3.               Excludes $27-$33 million of share-based compensation expense from
                        estimated GAAP R&D expenses.





     4.               Commencing in 2020, the company no longer excludes upfront and
                        milestone payments from the company's non-GAAP adjusted net
                        income, its line item components and non-GAAP adjusted EPS. The
                        impact of this change to the company's 2020 non-GAAP adjusted net
                        income and non-GAAP adjusted EPS guidance is approximately $175
                        million or $3.13 per diluted share, respectively, related to the
                        post-tax impact of the $200 million upfront payment made to
                        PharmaMar in January 2020.





     5.               Excludes the income tax effect of adjustments between GAAP reported
                        and non-GAAP adjusted net income.





     6.               See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below. Reconciliations of non-
                        GAAP adjusted guidance measures are included above and in the

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Jazz Pharmaceuticals' financial results and guidance presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company uses certain non-GAAP (also referred to as adjusted or non-GAAP adjusted) financial measures in this press release and the accompanying tables. In particular, the company presents non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components, as well as certain non-GAAP adjusted financial measures derived therefrom, including non-GAAP adjusted gross margin percentage and non-GAAP adjusted effective tax rate. Non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components exclude from GAAP reported net income (loss) (and the related per share measure) and its line item components certain items, as detailed in the reconciliation tables that follow, and in the case of non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure), adjust for the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. In this regard, the components of non-GAAP adjusted net income, including non-GAAP cost of product sales, non-GAAP SG&A expenses and non-GAAP R&D expenses, are income statement line items prepared on the same basis as, and therefore components of, the overall non-GAAP adjusted net income measure.

The company believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to, and facilitates additional analysis by, investors and analysts. In particular, the company believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the company's financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, can enhance 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 business. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are regularly used by investors and analysts to model and track the company's financial performance. Jazz Pharmaceuticals' management also regularly uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the company's business and to make operating decisions, and compensation of executives is based in part on certain of these non-GAAP financial measures. Because these non-GAAP financial measures are important internal measurements for Jazz Pharmaceuticals' management, the company also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and analysts since these measures allow for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics the company uses in assessing its own operating performance and making operating decisions.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures; should be read in conjunction with the company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP; have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. 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 financial measures; and the company has ceased, and may in the future cease, to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its non-GAAP financial measures. For example, commencing in 2020, the company no longer excludes upfront and milestone payments from the company's non-GAAP adjusted net income, its line item components and non-GAAP adjusted EPS. For purposes of comparability, non-GAAP adjusted financial measures for the first quarter of 2019 have been updated to reflect this change. Accordingly, such payments are not excluded from its non-GAAP financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, or from 2020 non-GAAP adjusted net income guidance and non-GAAP adjusted net income per diluted share guidance as detailed in the reconciliation tables that follow. Likewise, the company may determine to modify the nature of its adjustments to arrive at its non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions of non-GAAP financial measures, the non-GAAP financial measures as used by Jazz Pharmaceuticals in this press release and the accompanying tables have limits in their usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

This press release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements related to Jazz Pharmaceuticals' future financial and operating results, including the company's updated 2020 financial guidance and 2020 planned milestones and the anticipated timing thereof, including the rolling launch of Sunosi in Europe, the potential approval and launch of lurbinectedin and JZP-258 in the U.S.; the company's clinical development of and planned BLA submission for JZP-458; the company's plan to proactively manage operating expenses and prioritize investments in the most important revenue drivers; the company's focus on diversifying its portfolio of essential medicines to provide innovative and life-changing options for patients; the company's belief that its cash flow, balance sheet and access to additional liquidity position it well to manage through the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic while driving future growth; the company's belief that Xyrem demand in 2020 will remain strong; the company's expectations of inter-quarter variability in Defitelio net sales and Erwinaze net sales and the reasons therefor; and other statements that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements are based on the company's current plans, objectives, estimates, expectations and intentions and inherently involve significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of these risks and uncertainties, which include, without limitation, risks and uncertainties associated with: the scale, duration and evolving effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global economic, financial, and healthcare system disruptions and the current and potential future negative impacts to the company's business operations and financial results; maintaining or increasing sales of and revenue from Xyrem; effectively commercializing the company's other products and product candidates, including with respect to Sunosi and, if approved, lurbinectedin and JZP-258; the time-consuming and uncertain regulatory approval process, including the risk that the company's current and planned regulatory submissions may not be submitted, accepted or approved by applicable regulatory authorities in a timely manner or at all; the costly and time-consuming pharmaceutical product development and the uncertainty of clinical success, including risks related to failure or delays in successfully initiating or completing clinical trials and assessing patients such as those being experienced, and expected to continue to be experienced, by the company as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; protecting and enhancing the company's intellectual property rights; delays or problems in the supply or manufacture of the company's products and product candidates; complying with applicable U.S. and non-U.S. regulatory requirements; government investigations and other actions; obtaining and maintaining adequate coverage and reimbursement for the company's products; identifying and acquiring, in-licensing or developing additional products or product candidates, financing these transactions and successfully integrating acquired product candidates, products and businesses; the company's ability to realize the anticipated benefits of its collaborations with third parties for the development of product candidates; the company's ability to achieve expected future financial performance and results and the uncertainty of future tax and other provisions and estimates; and other risks and uncertainties affecting the company, including those described from time to time under the caption "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc's Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports (Commission File No. 001-33500), including the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and future filings and reports by the company, including the company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. In addition, while the company expects the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to adversely affect its business operations and financial results, the extent of the impact on the company's ability to generate sales of and revenues from its approved products, its clinical development and regulatory efforts, its corporate development objectives and the value of and market for its ordinary shares, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence at this time, such as the ultimate duration of the pandemic, travel restrictions, quarantines, social distancing and business closure requirements in the U.S., Ireland and other countries, and the effectiveness of actions taken globally to contain and treat the disease. Moreover, other risks and uncertainties of which the company is not currently aware may also affect the company's forward-looking statements and may cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from those anticipated.

     Explanation of Adjustments and Certain Line Items:




      (a)               Impairment charge related to the company's decision to stop enrollment in its Phase 3 clinical study of defibrotide
                         for the prevention of VOD due to a determination by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee that it is highly
                         unlikely that the study will reach its primary endpoint.
