Portfolio Updates

  • At the upcoming 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, select oral data presentations include:
    • First clinical data from the phase I/II trial evaluating CELMoD® agent iberdomide (CC-220) in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM);
    • Updated data, including minimal residual disease (MRD) response, from the phase I TRANSCEND CLL-004 trial evaluating liso-cel in patients with relapsed and/or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Liso-cel recently received Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation in this setting. In addition, the Biologics License Application (BLA) submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for liso-cel in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) remains on-track for the second half of 2019;
    • Data from the phase III apact® trial evaluating ABRAXANE® as adjuvant therapy in patients with surgically resected pancreatic cancer. In March, Celgene announced that the phase III apact® trial did not achieve the primary endpoint of improvement in disease-free survival, compared to gemcitabine alone. Overall survival, a secondary endpoint of the study, was improved, reaching nominal statistical significance, with ABRAXANE® in combination with gemcitabine compared to gemcitabine alone. The safety profile observed in the apact® study was consistent with previously reported studies of ABRAXANE®.
  • Celgene today announced top-line results from the phase III ROBUST trial evaluating REVLIMID® plus rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy (R2-CHOP) in patients with previously untreated activated B-cell (ABC) subtype diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The trial did not meet the primary endpoint of demonstrating superiority in progression-free survival (PFS) compared to placebo plus R-CHOP. The safety profile of R2-CHOP was consistent with the known safety profiles of the individual medicines, and no new safety signals were identified with the combination.
  • In April, Celgene and Acceleron Pharma announced the submission of a BLA to the U.S. FDA for luspatercept, an erythroid maturation agent, for the treatment of adult patients with very low to intermediate risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)-associated anemia who have ring sideroblasts and require red blood cell (RBC) transfusions and for the treatment of adult patients with beta-thalassemia-associated anemia who require RBC transfusions. In addition, Celgene plans to submit a marketing application for both indications to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in April 2019.
  • In March, Celgene announced that the EMA Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) adopted positive opinions for REVLIMID® in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone (RVd) in adult patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma who are not eligible for transplant and for POMALYST®/IMNOVID® in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone (PVd) for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior treatment regimen including REVLIMID®.
  • In March, Celgene announced the submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. FDA for ozanimod in patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (RMS) and the submission of a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) to the EMA for ozanimod in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). In addition, the phase III TRUE NORTH trial evaluating ozanimod in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) completed enrollment in April.
  • In March, Celgene announced that the U.S. FDA granted Priority Review designation for the NDA for fedratinib in patients with myelofibrosis. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date for the submission is September 3, 2019. The EU MAA submission is now planned by year-end 2019.
  • In March, Roche announced the accelerated approval of TECENTRIQ® (atezolizumab) in combination with ABRAXANE® for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) whose tumors express PD-L1 as determined by an FDA approved test. This accelerated approval is based on results from the phase III IMpassion130 study.
  • In February, Celgene announced that the FDA granted Priority Review designation for the supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for REVLIMID® in combination with rituximab (R²) in patients with relapsed and/or refractory indolent NHL. The PDUFA date for the submission is June 27, 2019.

Business Updates

  • On April 12, 2019, the stockholders of Celgene voted to adopt the proposed merger and the stockholders of Bristol-Myers Squibb voted to approve the issuance of shares of Bristol-Myers Squibb common stock in connection with the proposed merger. The parties continue to expect the transaction to close in the third quarter of 2019, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plans,” “will,” “outlook” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current plans, estimates, assumptions and projections, and speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement in light of new information or future events, except as otherwise required by law. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this document also contains certain non-GAAP financial measures based on management’s view of performance including:

  • Adjusted research and development expense
  • Adjusted selling, general and administrative expense
  • Adjusted operating margin
  • Adjusted net income
  • Adjusted earnings per share

Management uses such measures internally for planning and forecasting purposes and to measure the performance of the Company. We believe these adjusted financial measures provide useful and meaningful information to us and investors because they enhance investors’ understanding of the continuing operating performance of our business and facilitate the comparison of performance between past and future periods. These adjusted financial measures are non-GAAP measures and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When preparing these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures we typically exclude certain GAAP items that management does not consider to be normal, recurring cash operating expenses but that may not meet the definition of unusual or non-recurring items. Other companies may define these measures in different ways. The following categories of items are excluded from adjusted financial results:

Acquisition/Integration and Divestiture Related Costs: We exclude the impact of certain amounts recorded in connection with business combinations and divestitures from our adjusted financial results that are either non-cash or not normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing. These amounts may include non-cash items such as the amortization of acquired intangible assets, amortization of purchase accounting adjustments to inventories, intangible asset impairment charges and expense or income related to changes in the estimated fair value measurement of contingent consideration and success payments. We also exclude transaction and certain other cash costs associated with business acquisitions and divestitures that are not normal, recurring operating expenses, including severance costs which are not part of a formal restructuring program as well as integration preparation costs associated with our merger with Bristol-Myers Squibb.

Share-Based Compensation Expense: We exclude share-based compensation from our adjusted financial results because share-based compensation expense, which is non-cash, fluctuates from period to period based on factors that are not within our control, such as our stock price on the dates share-based grants are issued.

Collaboration-Related Upfront Expenses: We exclude collaboration-related upfront expenses from our adjusted financial results because we do not consider them to be normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing. Upfront payments to collaboration partners are made at the commencement of a relationship anticipated to continue for a multi-year period and provide us with intellectual property rights, option rights and other rights with respect to particular programs. The variability of amounts and lack of predictability of collaboration-related upfront expenses makes the identification of trends in our ongoing research and development activities more difficult. We believe the presentation of adjusted research and development, which does not include collaboration-related upfront expenses, provides useful and meaningful information about our ongoing research and development activities by enhancing investors’ understanding of our normal, recurring operating research and development expenses and facilitates comparisons between periods and with respect to projected performance. All expenses incurred subsequent to the initiation of the collaboration arrangement, such as research and development cost-sharing expenses/reimbursements and milestone payments up to the point of regulatory approval are considered to be normal, recurring operating expenses and are included in our adjusted financial results.

Research and Development Asset Acquisition Expense: We exclude costs associated with acquiring rights to pre-commercial compounds because we do not consider such costs to be normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing. Research and development asset acquisition expenses includes expenses to acquire rights to pre-commercial compounds from a collaboration partner when there will be no further participation from the collaboration partner or other parties. The variability of amounts and lack of predictability of research and development asset acquisition expenses makes the identification of trends in our ongoing research and development activities more difficult. We believe the presentation of adjusted research and development, which does not include research and development asset acquisition expenses, provides useful and meaningful information about our ongoing research and development activities by enhancing investors’ understanding of our normal, recurring operating research and development expenses and facilitates comparisons between periods and with respect to projected performance.

Restructuring Costs: We exclude costs associated with restructuring initiatives from our adjusted financial results. These costs include amounts associated with facilities to be closed, employee separation costs and costs to move operations from one location to another. We do not frequently undertake restructuring initiatives and therefore do not consider such costs to be normal, recurring operating expenses.

Certain Other Items: We exclude certain other significant items that may occur occasionally and are not normal, recurring cash operating expenses from our adjusted financial results. Such items are evaluated on an individual basis based on both the quantitative and the qualitative aspect of their nature and generally represent items that, either as a result of their nature or magnitude, we would not anticipate occurring as part of our normal business on a regular basis. While not all-inclusive, examples of certain other significant items excluded from adjusted financial results would be: significant litigation-related loss contingency accruals and expenses to settle other disputed matters and, effective for fiscal year 2018, changes in the fair value of our equity securities upon the adoption of ASU 2016-01 (Financial Instruments-Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities).

Estimated Tax Impact From Above Adjustments: We exclude the net income tax impact of the non-tax adjustments described above from our adjusted financial results. The net income tax impact of the non-tax adjustments includes the impact on both current and deferred income taxes and is based on the taxability of the adjustment under local tax law and the statutory tax rate in the tax jurisdiction where the adjustment was incurred.

Non-Operating Tax Adjustments: We exclude the net income tax impact of certain other significant income tax items, which are not associated with our normal, recurring operations (“Non-Operating Tax Items”), from our adjusted financial results. Non-Operating Tax Items include items which may occur occasionally and are not normal, recurring operating expenses (or benefits), including adjustments related to acquisitions, divestitures, collaborations, certain adjustments to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits related to prior year tax positions, the impact of tax reform legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act), and other similar items. We also exclude excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies that arise upon vesting or exercise of share-based payments recognized as income tax benefits or expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing.

See the attached Reconciliations of GAAP to Adjusted Net Income for explanations of the amounts excluded and included to arrive at the adjusted measures for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, and for the projected amounts for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2019.
