TEL AVIV, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE: TEVA, TASE: TEVA) today reported results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Mr. Kåre Schultz, Teva's President and CEO, said, “2020 brought an unprecedented global health crisis, affecting all nations and industries, including the pharmaceutical industry, which plays many roles in countering the epidemic. As our industry responds to the challenge, we are reminded of the importance of reliable supplies of high quality generic medicines to meet critical demand. Teva has responded to this challenge by supporting efforts of governments and health services to curb the impact of the virus. We have done this while taking robust measures to safeguard the health and well-being of our employees, who have diligently worked to ensure that all our manufacturing and distribution facilities remain open to allow the safe supply of medicines and APIs to our customers, and to millions of patients around the world."

Mr. Schultz continued, "Our very strong results during the first quarter of 2020 were impacted by greater demand in our major markets for generic and OTC products and respiratory products. Stronger revenues across these categories, along with growth in our operating and net profit, contributed to strong free cash flow and a further reduction in our net debt to $24.3 billion."

"Looking ahead, in light of the challenges and uncertainties facing our industry and society at large, we will continue to take measures to safeguard our dedicated employees, securing continued operation of our supply chain and deliveries of our broad portfolio to the 200 million patients we serve."

First Quarter 2020 Consolidated Results

Revenues in the first quarter of 2020 were $4,357 million, an increase of 5% in both U.S. dollar and local currency terms, compared to the first quarter of 2019. This increase was mainly due to higher revenues from generics and OTC sales in Europe, higher revenues from AUSTEDO^® and Anda in North America and higher revenues from our International Markets segment, partially offset by lower revenues from generics in the U.S. and lower revenues from QVAR^® and BENDEKA^®/TREANDA^® in North America.

Exchange rate differences between the first quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2019, net of hedging, negatively impacted our revenues by $3 million and positively impacted our GAAP and non-GAAP operating income by $27 million and $25 million, respectively.

GAAP gross profit was $2,063 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of 11% compared to the first quarter of 2019. GAAP gross profit margin was 47.3% in the first quarter of 2020, compared to 44.7% in the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP gross profit was $2,312 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of 8% compared to the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP gross profit margin was 53.1% in the first quarter of 2020, compared to 51.8% in the first quarter of 2019. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues was mainly due to higher profitability in each of our three segments, mainly due to higher revenues from AUSTEDO, a favorable mix of generic products in North America, a favorable mix of generic products in Europe and International Markets and a positive impact from our hedging activity, partially offset by higher revenues from Anda, which has lower profitability.

GAAP Research and Development (R&D) expenses in the first quarter of 2020 were $221 million, a decrease of 15% compared to the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP R&D expenses were $221 million, or 5.1% of quarterly revenues, in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $255 million, or 6.1%, in the first quarter of 2019. The decrease in R&D expenses resulted primarily from the life cycle and stage of various projects.

GAAP Selling and Marketing (S&M) expenses in the first quarter of 2020 were $613 million, a decrease of 5% compared to the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP S&M expenses were $570 million, or 13.1% of quarterly revenues, in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $602 million, or 14.5%, in the first quarter of 2019. The decrease was mainly due to cost reductions and efficiency measures, as well as lower marketing and travel costs attributed to travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

GAAP General and Administrative (G&A) expenses in the first quarter of 2020 were $304 million, an increase of 4% compared to the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP G&A expenses were $290 million, or 6.7% of quarterly revenues, in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $280 million, or 6.8%, in the first quarter of 2019.

GAAP and non-GAAP other income in the first quarter of 2020 was $13 million, compared to $6 million in the first quarter of 2019.

GAAP operating income in the first quarter of 2020 was $191 million, compared to $134 million in the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP operating income in the first quarter of 2020 was $1,244 million, an increase of 22% compared to $1,019 million in the first quarter of 2019. This increase was mainly due to higher profit in our Europe, International Markets and North America segments and the economic hedging activities mentioned above as well as lower operating expenses, notably S&M expenses, primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

EBITDA (non-GAAP operating income, which excludes amortization and certain other items, as well as depreciation expenses) was $1,375 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of 19% compared to $1,154 million in the first quarter of 2019.

GAAP financial expenses were $224 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $218 million in the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP financial expenses were $213 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $220 million in the first quarter of 2019.

In the first quarter of 2020, we recognized a GAAP tax benefit of $59 million, on pre-tax loss of $33 million. In the first quarter of 2019, we recognized a tax expense of $9 million, on pre-tax loss of $84 million. Our tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 was mainly affected by impairments in jurisdictions in which tax rates are higher than Teva's average tax rate. Non-GAAP income taxes for the first quarter of 2020 were $175 million, or 17%, on pre-tax non-GAAP income of $1,030 million. Non-GAAP income taxes in the first quarter of 2019 were $125 million, or 16%, on pre-tax non-GAAP income of $799 million. Our non-GAAP tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 was mainly affected by the mix of products sold and lower interest expense disallowance compared to the first quarter of 2019.

We expect our annual non-GAAP tax rate for 2020 to be 17-18%, unchanged from our outlook provided in February 2020.

GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and GAAP diluted EPS were $69 million and $0.06, respectively, in the first quarter of 2020, compared to GAAP net loss and GAAP diluted loss per share of $105 million and $0.10 in the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP diluted EPS in the first quarter of 2020 were $835 million and $0.76, respectively, compared to $654 million and $0.60 in the first quarter of 2019. The increase in non-GAAP net income and EPS is mainly due to higher profit in our Europe, International Markets and North America segments and the economic hedging activities mentioned above as well as lower operating expenses, notably S&M expenses, primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by higher non-GAAP taxes compared to the first quarter of 2019.

The weighted average diluted shares outstanding used for the fully diluted share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were 1,096 million and 1,090 million shares, respectively. The weighted average outstanding shares for the fully diluted EPS calculation on a non-GAAP basis for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were 1,096 million and 1,093 million shares, respectively.

As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, the fully diluted share count for purposes of calculating our market capitalization was approximately 1,118 million and 1,107 million, respectively.

Non-GAAP information: Net non-GAAP adjustments in the first quarter of 2020 were $766 million. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS for the first quarter of 2020 were adjusted to exclude the following items:

• Impairment of long-lived assets of $724 million, mainly comprised of $649 million in impairments of long-lived intangible assets, which were mainly attributed to the results in AUSTEDO for the treatment of Tourette syndrome, ongoing regulatory pricing reductions and generic competition in Japan and updated marketing assumptions regarding price and volumes of certain generic products in the U.S.;
• Amortization of purchased intangible assets of $258 million, of which $223 million is included in cost of sales and the remaining $35 million in S&M expenses;
• Restructuring expenses of $39 million;
• Equity compensation expenses of $30 million;
• Other items of $37 million;
• Legal settlements and loss contingencies of $25 million due to a settlement of an action brought against the sellers of Auden McKenzie;
• Minority income of $63 million; and
• Income tax of $234 million.

Teva believes that excluding such items facilitates investors’ understanding of its business. For further information, see the tables below for a reconciliation of the U.S. GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP figures and the information under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacement for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Cash flow generated from operating activities during the first quarter of 2020 was $305 million, compared to $112 million in the first quarter of 2019. This increase was mainly due to higher operating profit in each of our three segments, as well as lower performance incentive payments to employees paid in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the amounts paid in the first quarter of 2019.

Free cash flow (cash flow generated from operating activities, net of cash received for capital investments and beneficial interest collected in exchange for securitized trade receivables) was $551 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $360 million in the first quarter of 2019. This increase was mainly due to higher cash flow generated from operating activities, including significant consumption of inventories.

As of March 31, 2020, our debt was $26,103 million, compared to $26,908 million as of December 31, 2019. The decrease was mainly due to repayment at maturity of our $700 million 2.25% senior note senior notes and exchange rate fluctuations. The portion of total debt classified as short-term as of March 31, 2020 was 6%, compared to 9% as of December 31, 2019. Our average debt maturity was approximately 6.6 years as of March 31, 2020, compared to 6.4 years as of December 31, 2019.

Generic products revenues in our North America segment (including biosimilars) in the first quarter of 2020 were $952 million a decrease of 1% compared to the first quarter of 2019. This decrease was mainly due to price erosion in our product portfolio and lower royalty income, offset by an increase in revenues from launches of new products, including TRUXIMA and from our ProAir^® authorized generic due to higher demand related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the first quarter of 2020, we led the U.S. generics market in total prescriptions and new prescriptions, with approximately 389 million total prescriptions (based on trailing twelve months), representing 10.4% of total U.S. generic prescriptions according to IQVIA data.

AJOVY revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2020 were $29 million, an increase of $9 million, or 44% compared to the first quarter of 2019, mainly due to growth in volume in the first quarter of 2020. AJOVY was approved by the FDA and launched in the United States in September 2018 for the preventive treatment of migraine in adults. On January 27, 2020, the FDA approved an auto-injector device for AJOVY in the U.S., which became commercially available in April 2020. In addition, AJOVY was approved in Canada on April 14, 2020.

AUSTEDO revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2020 increased by 64% to $122 million, compared to $74 million in the first quarter of 2019. This increase was mainly due to growth in volume in the first quarter of 2020.

BENDEKA and TREANDA combined revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2020 decreased by 14% to $105 million, compared to the first quarter of 2019, mainly due the emergence of alternative novel therapies and continued competition from Belrapzo^® (a ready-to-dilute bendamustine hydrochloride product from Eagle Pharmaceuticals, Inc.).

COPAXONE revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2020 decreased by 5% to $198 million, compared to the first quarter of 2019, mainly due to generic competition in the United States.

ProAir^® revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2020 were $59 million, flat compared to the first quarter of 2019. In January 2019, we launched our own ProAir authorized generic in the United States following the launch of a generic version of Ventolin^® HFA, another albuterol inhaler. Revenues from our ProAir HFA authorized generic are included in “generic products” above. ProAir is the fourth-largest short-acting beta-agonist in the market, with an exit market share of 15.5% (37.5% including our ProAir HFA authorized generic, making our overall albuterol product the largest in the market) in terms of total number of prescriptions for albuterol inhalers during the first quarter of 2020, compared to 27.6% in the first quarter of 2019.

QVAR revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2020 decreased by 29% to $45 million, compared to the first quarter of 2019, mainly due to increased price competition and lower volumes. QVAR maintained its second-place position in the inhaled corticosteroids category in the United States, with an exit market share of 20.8% in terms of total number of prescriptions during the first quarter of 2020, compared to 21.7% in the first quarter of 2019.

Anda revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2020 increased by 13% to $426 million, compared to $379 million in the first quarter of 2019, mainly due to higher volume increases primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains certain financial information that differs from what is reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures, including, but not limited to, non-GAAP EPS, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, EBITDA, non-GAAP financial expenses, non-GAAP income taxes, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS are presented in order to facilitates investors' understanding of our business. We utilize certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate performance, in conjunction with other performance metrics. The following are examples of how we utilize the non-GAAP measures: our management and board of directors use the non-GAAP measures to evaluate our operational performance, to compare against work plans and budgets, and ultimately to evaluate the performance of management; our annual budgets are prepared on a non-GAAP basis; and senior management’s annual compensation is derived, in part, using these non-GAAP measures. See the attached tables for a reconciliation of the GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP figures. Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacements for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We are not providing forward looking guidance for GAAP reported financial measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are based on management’s current beliefs and expectations and are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that could cause our future results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from that expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include risks relating to:

• our ability to successfully compete in the marketplace, including: that we are substantially dependent on our generic products; consolidation of our customer base and commercial alliances among our customers; the increase in the number of competitors targeting generic opportunities and seeking U.S. market exclusivity for generic versions of significant products; competition for our specialty products, especially COPAXONE^®, our leading medicine, which faces competition from existing and potential additional generic versions, competing glatiramer acetate products and orally-administered alternatives; the uncertainty of commercial success of AJOVY^® or AUSTEDO^®; competition from companies with greater resources and capabilities; delays in launches of new products and our ability to achieve expected results from investments in our product pipeline; ability to develop and commercialize biopharmaceutical products; efforts of pharmaceutical companies to limit the use of generics, including through legislation and regulations and the effectiveness of our patents and other measures to protect our intellectual property rights;
• our substantial indebtedness, which may limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, engage in additional transactions or make new investments, may result in a further downgrade of our credit ratings; and our inability to raise debt or borrow funds in amounts or on terms that are favorable to us;
• our business and operations in general, including uncertainty regarding the magnitude, duration, and geographic reach of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our business, financial condition, operations, cash flows, and liquidity and on the economy in general; manufacturing or quality control protocols; interruptions in our supply chain, including due to potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and business in geographic locations impacted by the pandemic and on the business operations of our customers and suppliers; our ability to successfully execute and maintain the activities and efforts related to the measures we have taken or may take in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated costs therewith; challenges associated with conducting business globally, including adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; costs resulting from the extensive governmental regulation to which we are subject or delays in governmental processing time due to modified government operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including effects on product and patent approvals due to the COVID-19 pandemic; disruptions of information technology systems; and our ability to successfully compete in the marketplace;
• our business and operations in general, including: effectiveness of our restructuring plan announced in December 2017; our ability to attract, hire and retain highly skilled personnel; our ability to develop and commercialize additional pharmaceutical products; compliance with anti-corruption sanctions and trade control laws; manufacturing or quality control problems; interruptions in our supply chain; disruptions of information technology systems; breaches of our data security; variations in intellectual property laws; challenges associated with conducting business globally, including adverse effects of political or economic instability, major hostilities or terrorism; significant sales to a limited number of customers; our ability to successfully bid for suitable acquisition targets or licensing opportunities, or to consummate and integrate acquisitions; our prospects and opportunities for growth if we sell assets and potential difficulties related to the operation of our new global enterprise resource planning (ERP) system;
• compliance, regulatory and litigation matters, including: increased legal and regulatory action in connection with public concern over the abuse of opioid medications in the U.S. and our ability to reach a final resolution of the remaining opioid-related litigation; costs and delays resulting from the extensive governmental regulation to which we are subject; the effects of reforms in healthcare regulation and reductions in pharmaceutical pricing, reimbursement and coverage; governmental investigations into S&M practices; potential liability for patent infringement; product liability claims; increased government scrutiny of our patent settlement agreements; failure to comply with complex Medicare and Medicaid reporting and payment obligations; and environmental risks;
• other financial and economic risks, including: our exposure to currency fluctuations and restrictions as well as credit risks; potential impairments of our intangible assets; potential significant increases in tax liabilities; and the effect on our overall effective tax rate of the termination or expiration of governmental programs or tax benefits, or of a change in our business;

and other factors discussed in this press release, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2020 and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, including in the sections captioned "Risk Factors” and “Forward Looking Statements.” Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or other information contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
