BOSTON--()--Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALXN) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2018. Total revenues in the second quarter were $1,045.0 million, a 14 percent increase compared to the same period in 2017. The benefit of foreign currency on total revenues year-over-year was 1 percent, or $10.9 million, net of hedging activities. Second quarter revenues include approximately $18 million due to order timing ahead of the July 4th holiday in the United States. On a GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share (EPS) in the quarter was $(2.05) per share, a 381 percent decrease versus the prior year, inclusive of $803.7 million of expense related to the value of the in-process research and development asset acquired in connection with our acquisition of Wilson Therapeutics AB in the second quarter of 2018. Non-GAAP diluted EPS for the second quarter of 2018 was $2.07 per share, a 33 percent increase versus the second quarter of 2017.

"In the second quarter of 2018, we are pleased to have once again delivered strong top and bottom-line growth," said Ludwig Hantson, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Alexion. "We see continued momentum from both our in-line business and our gMG launch. We have advanced our ALXN1210 programs with the goal of improving the standard of care for patients and have filed regulatory submissions for PNH in the U.S. and EU, and pending regulatory approval, plan to launch next year. We also completed the Wilson Therapeutics acquisition and began a collaboration with Complement Pharma, important initial steps in building out our clinical pipeline. In light of our financial performance, we have updated guidance to reflect the strength of our business."

Research and Development

  • ALXN1210- Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH): Alexion submitted applications in the U.S. and the EU for the approval of ALXN1210 in patients with PNH. These submissions are based on previously announced positive results from Phase 3 studies of ALXN1210 in complement inhibitor treatment-naive patients and in patients who switched from Soliris® to ALXN1210. In both studies, which collectively comprise the largest ever clinical program in PNH, ALXN1210 administered intravenously every eight weeks, demonstrated non-inferiority to Soliris® administered intravenously every two weeks, on all 11 primary and key secondary endpoints. Alexion also plans to file for regulatory approval in Japan later this year. In addition, a Phase 3 study of ALXN1210 in children and adolescents with PNH is currently underway.
  • ALXN1210- Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS): Enrollment was completed in late May 2018 in a Phase 3 trial of ALXN1210 administered intravenously every eight weeks in complement inhibitor treatment-naive adolescent and adult patients with aHUS. Data from this study are now expected in early 2019. Alexion intends to file for regulatory approval in aHUS following approval of ALXN1210 in PNH. A Phase 3 study of ALXN1210 in children with aHUS is currently underway.
  • ALXN1210- Subcutaneous: In late 2018, Alexion plans to initiate a single, PK-based Phase 3 study of ALXN1210 delivered subcutaneously once per week to support registration in PNH and aHUS.
  • ALXN1810- Subcutaneous: Alexion filed a Clinical Trial Application (CTA) in the EU for subcutaneous ALXN1210 co-administered with Halozyme's ENHANZE® drug-delivery technology, PH20, and plans to initiate a Phase 1 study in the second half of 2018. Pending co-formulation data, this next-generation subcutaneous formulation will be called ALXN1810 and has the potential to further extend the dosing interval to once every two weeks or once per month.
  • Soliris® (eculizumab)- Relapsing Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD): Enrollment was completed in October 2017 in the PREVENT study, a single, multinational, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial of Soliris® in patients with NMOSD; Alexion expects to report data by the end of 2018.
  • WTX101- Wilson Disease: In the second quarter, Alexion announced the closing of the tender period for the acquisition of Wilson Therapeutics AB, a biopharmaceutical company, based in Stockholm, Sweden, that developed novel therapies for patients with rare copper-mediated disorders, and assumed control of the company. WTX101 is in Phase 3 development as a treatment for Wilson disease, a rare genetic disorder with devastating hepatic and neurological consequences. WTX101 is a first-in-class oral copper-binding agent with a unique mechanism of action to access and bind to serum copper and promote its removal from the liver.
  • CP010- Complement Pharma: In the second quarter, Alexion began a collaboration with Complement Pharma to co-develop CP010, a preclinical C6 inhibitor that has the potential to treat multiple neurological disorders.

2018 Financial Guidance

Alexion is increasing revenue guidance, non-GAAP operating margin guidance, and non-GAAP EPS guidance. Full guidance updates are outlined below.

    Previous (as of April 26, 2018)     Updated (as of July 26, 2018)
Total revenues $3,925 to $3,985 million

$3,980 to $4,010 million

Soliris revenues $3,380 to $3,420 million

$3,420 to $3,440 million

Metabolic revenues $545 to $565 million

$560 to $570 million

R&D (% total revenues)
GAAP (1) 41% to 44% 20% to 21%
Non-GAAP 18% to 20% 18% to 19%
SG&A (% total revenues)
GAAP 26% to 28% 26% to 27%
Non-GAAP 23% to 24% 22% to 23%
Operating margin
GAAP 8% to 11% 11% to 14%
Non-GAAP 48% to 49% 49% to 50%
Earnings per share
GAAP $1.35 to $1.75 $1.25 to $1.50
Non-GAAP $6.75 to $6.90 $7.00 to $7.15

(1) GAAP R&D (% of total revenues) previously included our preliminary financial impact for Wilson Therapeutics AB. The actual impact is now reflected in "Acquired in-process research and development" within the Statement of Operations and therefore excluded from updated GAAP R&D (% of total revenues) guidance.

Updated 2018 financial guidance assumes the following:

  • A foreign currency tailwind, net of hedging activities, of approximately $25 million.
  • Unfavorable Soliris® revenue impact of $90 to $110 million from ALXN1210 and other clinical trial recruitment versus prior year.
  • $803.7 million of expense related to the value of the in-process research and development asset acquired in connection with Wilson Therapeutics AB.
  • GAAP effective tax rate of 39 to 40 percent; non-GAAP effective tax rate of 14.5 to 15.5 percent.

Alexion expects to incur additional restructuring and related expenses in 2018 of approximately $10 million to $60 million related to the Company's 2017 restructuring activities. As the Company continues to execute its strategic business plan and global footprint, we may incur restructuring expenses that are materially different from the current estimate.

Alexion’s financial guidance is based on current foreign exchange rates net of hedging activities and does not include the effect of acquisitions, license and collaboration agreements, intangible asset impairments, litigation charges, changes in fair value of contingent consideration or restructuring and related activity outside of the previously announced activities that may occur after the day prior to the date of this press release.

(2)   During the second quarter of 2018, we recorded $7.1 million in litigation charges in connection with ongoing investigations.
 
(3) During the second quarter of 2018, we completed the acquisition of Wilson Therapeutics AB. The acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset, WTX101, an early Phase III development asset. The value of the acquired in-process research and development asset related to WTX101 was expensed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 due to the stage of development of this asset.
 
(4) The change in the expense associated with the fair value of contingent consideration for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same periods in 2017 was primarily due to the timing of increases in the likelihood and anticipated timing of payments for contingent consideration.
 
(5) On January 1, 2018, we adopted a new standard that changes the accounting for equity investments and, as a result, we recognized an unrealized gain of $100.8 million in investment income during the first quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, to adjust our investment in Moderna Therapeutics, Inc. to fair value.
 
(6) Alexion's non-GAAP income tax expense excludes the tax effect of pre-tax adjustments to GAAP profit and adjustments to provisional estimates of the impact of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act we recorded in Q4 2017.

(1)   In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a comprehensive new standard which amends revenue recognition principles. We adopted this standard in the first quarter 2018. Upon adoption of the new standard, we reduced our deferred revenue balance reported in Other current liabilities by $10.4 million, with an offsetting increase of $6.0 million in retained earnings due to the cumulative impact of adopting this new standard. The adjusted deferred revenue balance, as of January 1, 2018, was $5.5 million. We recognized this amount in revenue in the first quarter of 2018.
