BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (Nasdaq and SWX: BMRN) today announced
financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008. Net income
was $3.8 million ($0.04 per share) for the second quarter of 2008, compared
to a net loss of $3.9 million ($0.04 per share) for the second quarter of
2007. Non-GAAP net income was $9.7 million ($0.10 per share) for the second
quarter of 2008, compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.4 million ($0.00 per
share) for the second quarter of 2007. Non-GAAP net income/loss excludes
non-cash stock compensation expense, which was $5.9 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2008, compared to $4.3 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2007. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was
$5.5 million ($0.06 per share), compared to a net loss of $13.2 million
($0.14 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Non-GAAP net
income was $15.9 million ($0.16 per share) for the six months ended June
30, 2008, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $5.4 million ($0.06 per share)
for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Non-cash stock compensation expense
for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007 was $10.4 million
and $7.8 million, respectively.
As of June 30, 2008, BioMarin had cash, cash equivalents, and
short-term investments totaling $575.7 million.
"Higher than expected sales of Naglazyme and Aldurazyme and the steady
uptake of Kuvan drove improved financials, making this our third
consecutive profitable quarter," said Jean-Jacques Bienaime, Chief
Executive Officer of BioMarin. "The Kuvan launch is progressing according
to plan, and we continue to be optimistic about the long-term potential of
the drug, as well as the continued geographic expansion of Naglazyme, and
the timely development of the PEG-PAL, BMN 110 for MPS IVA and other
promising pipeline programs. In the second quarter, we licensed from Summit
the preclinical candidate SMT C1100 for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, adding
to our growing pipeline."
Net Product Revenue
Net product revenue from Naglazyme (galsulfase), an enzyme replacement
therapy for mucopolysaccharidosis VI (MPS VI), was $35.1 million for the
second quarter of 2008, an increase of 67.9 percent compared to net product
revenue of $20.9 million for the second quarter of 2007. Net product
revenue from Naglazyme for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $62.8
million, an increase of 59.8 percent from net product revenue of $39.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. BioMarin is commercializing
Naglazyme in the United States, Europe, Latin America, and Turkey and
through distributors in other international markets.
Net sales of Aldurazyme (laronidase), an enzyme replacement therapy for
mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I) recorded by Genzyme, was $38.7 million for
the second quarter of 2008, an increase of 33.0 percent compared to net
sales of $29.1 million for the second quarter of 2007. Net sales of
Aldurazyme recorded by Genzyme for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was
$75.5 million, compared to net sales of $55.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2007.
Net product revenue to BioMarin related to Aldurazyme for the second
quarter of 2008 was $13.4 million. This reflects a reduction in net product
revenue from the amount payable to BioMarin by Genzyme due to the timing of
inventory transfers to Genzyme, which were less than units shipped to third
party customers by Genzyme during the second quarter of 2008. Beginning
January 1, 2008, as a result of the restructuring of the joint venture with
Genzyme, BioMarin receives a royalty of 39.5% to 50% of worldwide net
sales. In addition, BioMarin recognizes product transfer revenue when
product is shipped to Genzyme. This amount will eventually be deducted from
royalties earned when the product is sold by Genzyme.
Net product revenue from Kuvan (sapropterin dihydrochloride) Tablets, a
product for the treatment of phenylketonuria (PKU), for the second quarter
of 2008 was $12.0 million, more than doubling reported sales in the first
quarter of 2008. Of the 49 U.S. patients in the extension study,
approximately 73% (36 patients) have continued on therapy and transitioned
to commercial therapy. Of the 36 patients who transitioned onto commercial
therapy, 36 (100%) are still on Kuvan as of June 30, 2008. The majority of
these patients have been on Kuvan for over two years. Also, as of June 30,
2008, of all the commercial patients on Kuvan for 90 days or more, 88%
remain on therapy and are current with refills.
Collaborative Agreement Revenues
Collaborative agreement revenues for the second quarter of 2008 were
$2.5 million, compared to $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2007.
Collaborative agreement revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008
were $5.0 million, compared to $7.7 million for the six months ended June
30, 2007. Collaborative agreement revenues decreased in 2008 compared to
2007 due to less reimbursable Kuvan development expenses during the second
quarter and first six months of 2008.
2008 Financial Guidance
BioMarin estimates 2008 net sales of Naglazyme will be in the range of
$130 million to $140 million, revised from a range of $115 million to $125
million.
Net sales of Aldurazyme by Genzyme are estimated to be in the range of
$135 million to $145 million. BioMarin's net product revenue related to
Aldurazyme is estimated to be between $72 million and $80 million, revised
from a range of $70 million to $80 million, which includes both the royalty
earned on net sales by Genzyme and incremental product revenue related to
the transfer of Aldurazyme inventory to Genzyme to meet future product
demand.
BioMarin estimates 2008 Kuvan net sales to be in the range of $45
million to $65 million, revised from a range of $45 million to $70 million.
BioMarin estimates its Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
net income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008 will be in the
range of $30 million to $42 million, revised from a range of $28 million to
$40 million, which includes the impact of the recently announced licensing
deal with Summit and assumes that the $30 million milestone for EU Kuvan
approval will be earned in 2008. The net income estimate includes
approximately $24 million to $27 million in non-cash stock compensation
expense. Non-GAAP net income, excluding the impact of non-cash stock
compensation, is estimated to be in the range of $54 million to $69
million, revised from a range of $52 million to $67 million.
Non-GAAP Financial Information and Reconciliation
The above 2007 and 2008 second quarter and first half results and 2008
financial guidance include actual and Management's 2008 estimated net
income, respectively, determined in accordance with GAAP and non-GAAP net
income. As used in this release, non-GAAP income is net income calculated
in accordance with GAAP, but excluding non-cash stock compensation expense,
a non-GAAP financial measure. Stock compensation expense excluded in the
calculation of non-GAAP net income was $5.9 million for the second quarter
of 2008, $4.3 million for the second quarter of 2007, $10.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2008, $7.8 million for the six months ended June
30, 2007 and $24.0 million to $27.0 million for Management's estimate of
2008 net income. The reconciliation of this measure to the estimated GAAP
net income is as follows (in millions):
2008
Q2 2008 Q2 2007 1H 2008 1H 2007 Management
Guidance
GAAP net income (loss) $3.8 ($3.9) $5.5 ($13.2) $30.0 - $42.0
Non-cash stock
compensation expense 5.9 4.3 10.4 7.8 24.0 - 27.0
Non-GAAP net income
(loss) $9.7 $0.4 $15.9 ($5.4) $54.0 - $69.0
Management believes that this non-GAAP information is useful to
investors, taken in conjunction with BioMarin's GAAP information because
Management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting
and financial planning purposes, and to enhance investors' overall
understanding of the company's prospects for the future.
