Alkermes plc Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

— First Quarter Revenues of $350.4 Million —

— GAAP Net Income from Continuing Operations of $38.9 Million and Diluted GAAP Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations of $0.23 —

— Company Reiterates 2024 Financial Expectations —

 

DUBLIN, May 1, 2024 — Alkermes plc (Nasdaq: ALKS) today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2024.

 

“The first quarter of 2024 marks our first full quarter as a profitable, pure-play neuroscience company. During the quarter, we continued to advance our strategic priorities across the business, highlighted by solid underlying prescription growth for LYBALVI® and advancement of ALKS 2680, our novel, investigational, oral orexin 2 receptor (OX2R) agonist in development as a once-daily treatment for narcolepsy,” said Richard Pops, Chief Executive Officer of Alkermes. “For ALKS 2680, we recently initiated our Vibrance-1 phase 2 study in narcolepsy type 1 and announced positive topline phase 1b results in narcolepsy type 2. With these new data now in hand, we plan to initiate a phase 2 study in narcolepsy type 2 in the second half of 2024. In an area where there remains significant unmet patient need, orexin 2 biology represents an important new potential approach to treating disorders characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness. ALKS 2680 is the first candidate from our orexin portfolio to advance in the clinic and we plan to share details regarding our other orexin development programs later this year.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes information about certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), including non-GAAP net income and EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Non-GAAP net income adjusts for certain one-time and non-cash charges by excluding from GAAP results: share-based compensation expense; amortization; depreciation; non-cash net interest expense; change in the fair value of contingent consideration; certain other one-time or non-cash items; and the income tax effect of these reconciling items. EBITDA represents earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization; earnings include share-based compensation expense.

3

 


 

The company’s management and board of directors utilize these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the company’s performance. The company provides these non-GAAP financial measures of the company’s performance to investors because management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with the company’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, are useful in identifying underlying trends in ongoing operations. However, non-GAAP net income and EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures as indicators of operating performance. Further, non-GAAP net income and EBITDA should not be considered measures of the company’s liquidity.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables included in this press release.

The company cautions that forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain.

Forward-Looking Statements and Non-GAAP Financial Information Certain statements set forth in this presentation constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, including, but not limited to, statements concerning: Alkermes plc’s (the “Company”) expectations with respect to its current and future financial, commercial and operating performance, business plans or prospects, including its expected cash and revenue generation, expectations of profitability and potential return of capital to shareholders; the potential therapeutic and commercial value of the Company’s marketed products and development candidates; the Company’s expectations regarding plans and timelines for further clinical development activities, including study design and timelines and presentation of clinical data for ALKS 2680; and the Company’s plans to advance and expand its neuroscience pipeline. The Company cautions that forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain. Actual performance and results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to various risks, assumptions and uncertainties. These risks, assumptions and uncertainties include, among others: whether the Company is able to sustain profitability; the unfavorable outcome of arbitration or litigation, including so-called “Paragraph IV” litigation or other patent litigation which may lead to competition from generic drug manufacturers, or other disputes related to the Company’s products or products using the Company’s proprietary technologies; the Company’s commercial activities may not result in the benefits that the Company anticipates; clinical development activities may not be completed on time or at all; the results of the Company’s development activities, including those related to ALKS 2680, may not be positive, or predictive of final results from such activities, results of future development activities or real-world results; potential changes in the cost, scope, design or duration of the Company’s development activities, including the ALKS 2680 development program; the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or other regulatory authorities may not agree with the Company’s regulatory approval strategies or components of the Company’s marketing applications and may make adverse decisions regarding the Company’s products; the Company and its licensees may not be able to continue to successfully commercialize their products or support growth of such products; there may be a reduction in payment rate or reimbursement for the Company’s products or an increase in the Company’s financial obligations to government payers; the Company’s products may prove difficult to manufacture, be precluded from commercialization by the proprietary rights of third parties, or have unintended side effects, adverse reactions or incidents of misuse; and those risks, assumptions and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2023 and in subsequent filings made by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, and on the Company’s website at www.alkermes.com in the ‘Investors – SEC filings’ section. Existing and prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, the Company disclaims any intention or responsibility for updating or revising any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation. Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This presentation includes information about certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), including non-GAAP net income, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and non-GAAP earnings per share. The Company provides these non-GAAP financial measures of the Company’s performance to investors because management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with the Company’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, are useful in identifying underlying trends in ongoing operations. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, to the extent reasonably determinable, can be found in the Appendix of this presentation.
