OUTLOOK

For fiscal 2023, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) indicates domestic protein production (beef, pork, chicken and turkey) should increase slightly compared to fiscal 2022 levels. The following is a summary of the updated outlook for each of our segments, as well as an outlook for revenues, capital expenditures, net interest expense, liquidity and tax rate for fiscal 2023. Certain of the outlook numbers include adjusted operating margin (a non-GAAP metric) for each segment. The Company is not able to reconcile its full-year fiscal 2023 projected adjusted results to its fiscal 2023 projected GAAP results because certain information necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis is unavailable or dependent on the timing of future events outside of our control. Therefore, because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature of and the amount of any potential applicable future adjustments, which could be significant, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation for these forward-looking non-GAAP measures without unreasonable effort. Adjusted operating margin should not be considered a substitute for operating margin or any other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Investors should rely primarily on the Company’s GAAP results and use non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally in making investment decisions.

Beginning in fiscal 2022, we launched a new productivity program, which is designed to drive a better, faster and more agile organization that is supported by a culture of continuous improvement and faster decision making. We targeted an aggregate $1 billion in productivity savings by the end of fiscal 2024 relative to a fiscal 2021 cost baseline. We realized more than $700 million of productivity savings in fiscal 2022, which partially offset the impacts of inflationary market conditions, and we have surpassed our aggregate $1 billion target as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2023, more than a year ahead of our plan.

Beef

USDA projects domestic production will decrease approximately 4% in fiscal 2023 as compared to fiscal 2022. We anticipate an adjusted operating margin of (1)% to 1% in fiscal 2023 as margins are expected to decrease.

Pork

USDA projects domestic production will be relatively flat in fiscal 2023 as compared to fiscal 2022. We anticipate adjusted operating margin of (2)% to 0% in fiscal 2023.

Chicken

USDA projects chicken production will increase approximately 3% in fiscal 2023 as compared to fiscal 2022. We anticipate an adjusted operating margin of (1)% to 1% for fiscal 2023.

Prepared Foods

We anticipate an adjusted operating margin of 8% to 10% in fiscal 2023 driven by volume growth, productivity and disciplined revenue management.

International/Other

We anticipate improved results from our foreign operations in fiscal 2023.

Revenue

We expect sales to be $53 billion to $54 billion in fiscal 2023.

Capital Expenditures

We expect capital expenditures of approximately $2.3 billion for fiscal 2023. Capital expenditures include spending for capacity expansion and utilization, automation to alleviate labor challenges and brand and product innovation.

Net Interest Expense

We expect net interest expense to approximate $340 million for fiscal 2023.

Liquidity

We expect total liquidity, which was approximately $2.2 billion at April 1, 2023, to remain above our minimum liquidity target of $1.0 billion. On May 3, 2023 we entered into $1.75 billion of new term loan facilities.

Tax Rate

We currently expect our adjusted effective tax rate to be around 22% for fiscal 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA is a tool intended to assist our management and investors in comparing our performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision-making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations on an ongoing basis.

We believe the presentation of these financial measures helps management and investors to assess our operating performance from period to period, including our ability to generate earnings sufficient to service our debt, enhances understanding of our financial performance and highlights operational trends. These measures are widely used by investors and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies; however, the measurements of EBITDA (and Adjusted EBITDA) and net debt to EBITDA (and to Adjusted EBITDA) may not be comparable to those of other companies, which may limit their usefulness as comparative measures. EBITDA (and Adjusted EBITDA) and net debt to EBITDA (and to Adjusted EBITDA) are not measures required by or calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as substitutes for net income or any other measure of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of operating cash flow or liquidity. EBITDA (and Adjusted EBITDA) is a useful tool for assessing, but is not a reliable indicator of, our ability to generate cash to service our debt obligations because certain of the items added to net income to determine EBITDA (and Adjusted EBITDA) involve outlays of cash. As a result, actual cash available to service our debt obligations will be different from EBITDA (and Adjusted EBITDA). Investors should rely primarily on our GAAP results and use non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally in making investment decisions.

During the past two years, we have enhanced ANI’s operational excellence by combining long-standing strengths in manufacturing and our strong GMP track record with best-in-class research and development capabilities, all with a ‘patient-first’ orientation. This has enabled us to capture market demand arising from the numerous supply disruptions impacting patient access to much-needed medicines. We are pleased with the strong start to 2023 and look forward to continuing to serve patients in need and working hard to build on the growth momentum throughout the year,” concluded Lalwani.

  • Net revenues were $106.8 million compared to $64.5 million in Q1 2022.

  • GAAP net income available to common shareholders was $1.0 million, and diluted GAAP income per share was $0.06.

  • Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA was $33.0 million compared to $4.3 million in Q1 2022.

First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:

Rare Disease Business Update

Revenues for Cortrophin Gel totaled $16.3 million in the first quarter, in line with internal expectations. The Company continues to see significant growth momentum as evidenced by a record number of new cases initiated in the first quarter of 2023 and new monthly records for new patient starts and new cases in April 2023. Importantly, the ACTH category, which had been declining since 2019, has experienced ten consecutive months of year-on-year growth from June 2022 – March 2023. In fact, the ACTH market has continued to see double-digit growth in volumes in each month of the first quarter of 2023.

The Company has ramped-up promotional efforts to continue to build awareness of Cortrophin Gel through peer-to-peer education programs across target indications of Rheumatology, Neurology and Nephrology. In addition, the Company has executed upon its previously discussed plans to modestly expand its sales force, and its Pulmonology sales force is now fully staffed and operational.

This strong first-quarter performance is in line with expectations, and thus the Company is maintaining its 2023 revenue guidance for Cortrophin Gel of $80 million to $90 million, representing 92% – 116% year-over-year growth.

Rare Disease remains a critical focus area for achieving future growth, and the Company continues to actively explore opportunities to acquire or establish partnerships to leverage its Rare Disease platform.

Generics Business, Established Brands and Others Update

Sales of generic pharmaceuticals products grew 29.7% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2023 and increased 10% sequentially from a strong fourth quarter in 2022. The Company’s generics business is well positioned for delivering sustainable growth driven by a strong R&D engine launching new products. Today, ANI retains a top ten ranking for new ANDA approvals and a number two ranking for Competitive Generic Therapy Approvals. In addition, ANI received multiple Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDAs) approvals, including Nitrofurantoin Oral Suspension USP, 25 mg/5 ml and Colestipol Hydrochloride Tablets USP, 1 g.

ANI’s enhanced focus on operational excellence and U.S. based manufacturing sites have enabled the Company to capture numerous opportunities arising from supply disruptions in both generics and established brands. In addition, the Company augmented its strong GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) track record with the successful conclusion of a U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) audit at its New Jersey site with zero 483s and No Actions Indicated (NAI) status.

As previously announced, manufacturing operations ceased at the Oakville, Ontario, site in January 2023, with the successful relocation of the Oakville products to U.S. facilities. Discussions with potential buyers for the Oakville site are ongoing.

Net revenues for generic pharmaceutical products were $63.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of 29.7% compared to $49.1 million for the same period in 2022, driven by increased volume from the annualization of 2022 launches and a favorable product mix.

Net revenues for established brand pharmaceutical products, royalties, and other pharmaceutical services were $26.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of 90.0% compared to $14.1 million for the same period in 2022, driven by an increase in volume.

Net revenues of rare disease pharmaceutical products, which consist entirely of sales of Cortrophin Gel, were $16.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of $15.0 million from $1.3 million for the same period in 2022. This increase was driven by increased volume as the product was launched in late January 2022.

Operating expenses increased by 15.8% to $96.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $83.7 million in the prior year period as a result of the following factors:

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cost of sales increased to $37.7 million from $34.3 million for the same period in 2022, an increase of $3.4 million, or 10.0%. The increase is primarily due to a shift in product mix and increased volumes of sales of generic and rare disease pharmaceutical products. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized $3.8 million in cost of sales representing the excess of fair value over cost for inventory acquired in acquisitions and subsequently sold during the three months ended March 31, 2022. There are no comparable expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Research and development expenses increased from $5.3 million to $5.9 million, an increase of $0.7 million or 12.3%, primarily due to year over year timing of work associated with generic projects coupled with an increase associated with projects related to Cortrophin Gel in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased from $28.8 million to $36.5 million, an increase of $7.7 million, or 26.6%, primarily due to a $3.4 million increase in sales and marketing expenses related to Cortrophin Gel and increased headcount related costs tempered by a $0.7 million decrease in transaction expenses related to the Novitium acquisition.

Depreciation and amortization increased slightly in the first quarter of 2023 to $14.7 million from $14.6 million in the comparable quarter in 2022, an increase of $0.1 million.

The Company recognized a contingent consideration fair value adjustment of $1.0 million and $0.8 million expense in the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively, related to the 2021 acquisition of Novitium Pharma LLC.

The Company recognized restructuring activities of $1.1 million of expense in the three months ended March 31, 2023, in relation to the closure of our Oakville, Ontario, Canada facility. Costs included severance and other employee benefits costs of $0.2 million, $0.7 million of accelerated depreciation costs, and $0.2 million for other miscellaneous costs accrued in 2022.

Net income available to common shareholders for the first quarter of 2023 was $1.0 million as compared to net loss of $(20.5) million in the prior year period. Diluted income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $0.06 compared to diluted GAAP loss per share of $(1.27) in the prior year period.

Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.17 in the first quarter of 2023 compared to a diluted loss per share of $(0.12) in the first quarter of 2022.

For reconciliations of adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA and adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please see Table 3 and Table 4, respectively.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $67.8 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents plus $174.7 million in net accounts receivable. The Company had $296.3 million (face value) in outstanding debt as of March 31, 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA

ANI’s management considers adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to be an important financial indicator of ANI’s operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by non-cash stock-based compensation and differences in capital structures, tax structures, capital investment cycles, ages of related assets, and compensation structures among otherwise comparable companies. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA when analyzing Company performance. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022, ANI no longer excludes expense for In-Process Research & Development or Cortrophin Gel pre-launch charges and sales and marketing expenses from its non-GAAP results. Historically, the Company excluded these charges. These changes have been made to align with views expressed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Prior periods have been recast to reflect these changes.

Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding tax expense or benefit, interest expense, (net), other expense, (net), depreciation, amortization, the excess of fair value over cost of acquired inventory, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, Novitium transaction expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustment, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI’s results of operations. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, net income or loss reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below.

ANI is not providing a reconciliation for the forward-looking full year 2023 adjusted EBITDA guidance because it does not currently have sufficient information to accurately estimate all of the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliation, including “with” and “without” tax provision information. As such, ANI’s management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results.

Adjusted non-GAAP Net Income (Loss)

ANI’s management considers adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss) to be an important financial indicator of ANI’s operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by the excess of fair value over cost of acquired inventory sold, non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization, Novitium transaction expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustment, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI’s results of operations. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss) when analyzing Company performance. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022, ANI no longer excludes expense for In-Process Research & Development or Cortrophin Gel pre-launch charges and sales and marketing expenses from its non-GAAP results. Historically, the Company excluded these charges. These changes have been made to align with views expressed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Prior periods have been recast to reflect these changes.

Adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss), plus the excess of fair value over cost of acquired inventory sold, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, Novitium transaction expenses, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, contingent consideration fair value adjustment, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI’s results of operations, less the tax impact of these adjustments calculated using an estimated statutory tax rate. Management will continually analyze this metric and may include additional adjustments in the calculation in order to provide further understanding of ANI’s results. Adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss) should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, net income (loss) reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss) to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below.

Adjusted non-GAAP Diluted (Loss)/Earnings per Share

ANI’s management considers adjusted non-GAAP diluted (loss)/earnings per share to be an important financial indicator of ANI’s operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by the excess of fair value over cost of acquired inventory sold, non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization, Novitium transaction expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustment, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI’s results of operations. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP diluted (loss)/earnings per share when analyzing Company performance.

Adjusted non-GAAP diluted (loss)/earnings per share is defined as adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss), as defined above, divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Management will continually analyze this metric and may include additional adjustments in the calculation in order to provide further understanding of ANI’s results. Adjusted non-GAAP diluted (loss)/earnings per share should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, diluted earnings or loss per share reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted (loss)/earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below.

ANI is not providing a reconciliation for the forward-looking full year 2023 adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance because it does not currently have sufficient information to accurately estimate all of the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliation, including “with” and “without” tax provision information. As such, ANI’s management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results.

Conference call and webcast scheduled for May 8, 2023, at 8:00 am EDT (2:00 pm CEST)

MAINZ, Germany, May 8, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioNTech SE (Nasdaq: BNTX, “BioNTech” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and provided an update on its corporate progress.

“In the first quarter of 2023, we expanded our toolkit of cutting-edge technologies to new modalities and added a novel immune checkpoint inhibitor candidate targeting CTLA-4 and two investigational antibody-drug conjugates to our arsenal against cancer. These programs are strategically aligned with our vision to provide meaningful therapeutic benefits for patients with solid tumors along the entire treatment journey,” said Prof. Ugur Sahin, M.D., CEO and Co-Founder of BioNTech. “We are taking significant steps in this direction as we prepare to initiate our first Phase 3 clinical trial in oncology for the novel anti-CTLA-4 antibody in NSCLC patients who have progressed after PD-1/PD-L1 treatment, a patient population with high medical need. We are also making progress in advancing our next generation COVID-19 vaccine candidate while we stand prepared for variant adaptation in case of public health need. For the remainder of 2023, we are focused on advancing our disruptive platforms against solid tumors and accelerating clinical programs in infectious diseases of high global need.”

Financial Review for the First Quarter 2023

in millions €, except per share data First Quarter 2023 First Quarter 2022
Total Revenues2 1,277.0 6,374.6
Net Profit 502.2 3,698.8
Diluted Earnings per Share 2.05 14.24

Total
revenues reported were €1,277.0 million2 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to €6,374.6 million2 for the comparative prior year period. The change was mainly due to lower commercial revenues from the supply and sales of the Company’s COVID-19 vaccines worldwide.

Cost of sales were €96.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to €1,294.1 million for the comparative prior year period. The change was mainly due to decreasing sales from BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine revenues.

Research and development expenses were €334.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to €285.8 million for the comparative prior year period. The change was mainly due to higher expenses incurred from progressing the clinical studies for pipeline candidates. The increase was further driven by an increased headcount.

General and administrative expenses were €119.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to €90.8 million for the comparative prior year period. The change was mainly due to increased expenses for IT, purchased external services, as well as an increase in headcount.

Income taxes were accrued in an amount of €205.5 million of tax expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to €1,319.3 million of tax expenses for the comparative prior year period. The derived annual effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was 29.0% which is expected to decrease over the 2023 financial year to be in line with BioNTech’s guidance.

Net profit was €502.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to €3,698.8 million for the comparative prior year period.

Cash and cash equivalents as well as security investments were €12,143.9 million and €671.9 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2023. Subsequent to the end of the reporting period, the payment settling BioNTech’s gross profit share for the fourth quarter of 2022 (as defined by the contract with Pfizer, Inc. (“Pfizer”)) in the amount of €3,961.3 million was received from our collaboration partner as of April 14, 2023. The contractual settlement of the gross profit share under the COVID-19 vaccine program collaboration with Pfizer has a temporal offset of more than one calendar quarter. As Pfizer’s fiscal quarter for subsidiaries outside the United States differs from BioNTech’s financial reporting cycle, it creates an additional time lag between the recognition of revenues and the payment receipt.

Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2023 were 240,990,499.

Cash outflows and share consideration in connection with the planned acquisition of InstaDeep Ltd. (“InstaDeep”) and the upfront payments of the collaboration and license agreements with OncoC4, Inc. (“OncoC4”) and Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. (“DualityBio”) of approximately €0.8 billion are expected (subject to change and excluding future potential earn-out and milestone payments).

“In the first quarter of 2023, our financial performance has been fully in line with our expectations and we executed according to our capital allocation priorities by growing and advancing our clinical-stage pipeline, announcing multiple significant business development transactions and continuing to pursue our share repurchase program,” said Jens Holstein, CFO of BioNTech. “For the remainder of 2023, we remain focused on fulfilling our goals and continuing to provide value to our patients and shareholders.”

Outlook for the 2023 Financial Year

The Company reiterates its prior financial year outlook:

BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine Revenues for the 2023 Financial Year:

Estimated BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine revenues for the full 2023 financial year ~ €5 billion

This revenue estimate reflects expected revenues related to BioNTech’s share of gross profit from COVID-19 vaccine sales in the collaboration partners’ territories, from direct COVID-19 vaccine sales to customers in BioNTech’s territory and expected revenues generated from products manufactured by BioNTech and sold to collaboration partners, which may be influenced by costs such as inventory write-offs once materialized and shared with the collaboration partner Pfizer.

Revenue guidance is based on various assumptions, including, but not limited to, the expected transition from an advanced purchase agreement environment to commercial market ordering starting in some geographies and an expected regulatory recommendation to adapt the COVID-19 vaccines to address newly circulating variants or sublineages of SARS-CoV-2. The estimated BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine revenues reflect expected deliveries under existing or committed supply contracts and anticipated sales through traditional commercial orders. A re-negotiation of the existing supply contract with the European Commission is ongoing, with the potential for a rephasing of deliveries of doses across multiple years and/or a volume reduction. While a vaccine adaptation is expected to lead to increased demand, fewer primary vaccinations and lowered population-wide levels of boosting are anticipated. Seasonal demand is assumed, moving expected revenue generation significantly to the second half of the year 2023.

Planned 2023 Financial Year Expenses and Capex4:

R&D expenses5 €2,400 million – €2,600 million
SG&A expenses €650 million – €750 million
Capital expenditures for operating activities6 €500 million – €600 million

Estimated 2023 Financial Year Tax Assumptions:

BioNTech Group estimated annual cash effective income tax rate ~ 27%

  • In February, BioNTech and Pfizer initiated a multicenter, randomized, controlled, dose-selection Phase 1/2 clinical trial of BNT167, the companies’ mRNA vaccine candidate against shingles (also known as herpes zoster). The clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of mRNA vaccine candidates against shingles.

Corporate Update
for the First Quarter 2023 and Key Post Period-End Events

  • In January, BioNTech entered into an agreement to acquire its long-standing strategic collaboration partner InstaDeep, enabling the creation of a fully integrated, enterprise-wide capability that leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies across BioNTech’s therapeutic platforms and operations. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
  • In January, BioNTech signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Government of the United Kingdom to establish a multi-year collaboration focused on three strategic pillars: cancer immunotherapies based on mRNA or other drug classes, infectious disease vaccines, and investments into expanding BioNTech’s footprint in the UK as one of the Company’s key markets. The goal of the collaboration is to provide personalized cancer therapies for up to 10,000 patients by the end of 2030, either in clinical trials or as authorized treatments.
  • In February, BioNTech completed construction of the Company’s first proprietary plasmid DNA manufacturing facility.
