President and CEO Murray S. Kessler commented, "During these unprecedented times, I am honored to be surrounded by our more than 11,000 dedicated employees who are making tremendous sacrifices to help ensure that our essential products remain available to consumers and patients who need them. Our top priorities remain our employees’ well-being and business continuity, while at the same time supporting the communities where we live and work."

Kessler continued, "Thanks to these courageous employees, we were able to report another quarter of strong growth across all business segments with robust sales and profitability above expectations. While we started the year off with similarly strong trends that we experienced in the fourth quarter of 2019, our business surged significantly in March in response to the global demand created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Worth noting, not only did our team keep the business running, they also made significant further progress on our Consumer Self-Care transformation. Perrigo is clearly well-positioned for a ‘New-Normal’ future, which will need Quality, Affordable Self-Care Products more than ever before."

Refer to Tables I – IV at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjustments to the current year and prior year periods and additional non-GAAP information. The Company’s reported results are included in the attached Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Balance Sheets and Statements of Cash Flows.

First Quarter 2020 Consolidated Results Versus First Quarter 2019

Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of calendar year 2020 increased 14.2% to $1.3 billion. Net sales increased 17.6% compared to the first quarter 2019, excluding exited businesses of $23 million and unfavorable currency movements of $13 million. This was driven by strong consumer demand for Worldwide Consumer products due to higher illnesses and higher allergens, new products including the launch of generic albuterol sulfate, and the addition of Ranir. These drivers were positively impacted by a surge in demand for certain products due to consumer and customer behavior surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, which added an estimated $90 million to $110 million in net sales to Perrigo in the quarter. These gains were partially offset by pricing pressure, specifically in the Prescription Pharmaceuticals ("RX") segment, and $11 million in discontinued products. Organic net sales were up 11.0%.

Reported net income was $106 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, versus net income of $64 million, or $0.47 per diluted share in the prior year period. Excluding certain charges as outlined in Table I, first quarter 2020 adjusted net income was $157 million, or $1.14 per diluted share, versus $146 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, for the same period last year. The adjusted diluted EPS increase was due primarily to strong growth across the Worldwide Consumer businesses and the addition of Ranir. These were partially offset by RX business price erosion on testosterone gel 1.62%, which launched in the prior year with 180-day market exclusivity, exited businesses and a 200 basis points increase in the adjusted effective tax rate equating to $0.03 per share.

Worldwide Consumer Self-Care First Quarter 2020 Results Versus First Quarter 2019

Worldwide Consumer is comprised of the CSCA segment, CSCI segment and Corporate.

Worldwide Consumer Self-Care delivered record first quarter net sales of $1.1 billion, an increase of 16.2%. Net sales excluding $23 million in exited businesses and $14 million from the impact of currency increased 20.7%. Organic net sales were up 12.3%.

First quarter reported gross profit margin was 36.5%. Adjusted gross profit margin of 38.4%, was 220 basis points lower year-over-year due to 1) higher growth of lower margin store brand products, partially driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, 2) lower operational efficiencies due primarily to a carryover impact from 2019 and Company prioritization of products most needed by society during the COVID-19 pandemic, 3) the addition of Ranir oral self-care products, which have a lower gross margin profile than the existing portfolio, and 4) the impact from exited businesses. These more than offset the margin contribution of new products and positive pricing.

Reported operating margin was 8.7%. Adjusted operating margin was 14.0%, or 100 basis points higher year-over-year due primarily to operating leverage on gross margin flow-through, savings from Project Momentum and the addition of Ranir, which had a relatively higher operating margin profile than the existing portfolio in the quarter. These were partially offset by higher employee compensation costs, including a $4 million special bonus to front-line employees.

CSCA First Quarter 2020 Results Versus First Quarter 2019

Consumer Self-Care Americas achieved record first quarter net sales of $701 million, an increase of 20.4%, and included $55 million in net sales attributable to Ranir. Excluding the exited animal health business, CSCA net sales increased 24.8%. Organic net sales were up 15.0%.

The OTC business delivered solid net sales growth driven by 1) overall OTC category growth and increased demand related to COVID-19, 2) continued robust growth in e-commerce, 3) Perrigo market share gains from store brand competitors due to greater consumer purchases of existing and new products, and 4) increased store brand penetration market-wide versus national brands of 60 basis points according to IRI MULO data, for the 13-weeks ending March 22, 2020.

Growth in the nutrition business was driven by 1) infant formula category growth and increased demand related to COVID-19, 2) the December 2019 store brand infant formula launch at a major retailer, and 3) growth in customer e-commerce activities. These drivers were partially offset by lower contract pack sales, which were due to planned contract production and sales that took place in the fourth quarter 2019.

First quarter reported gross margin was 30.8%. Adjusted gross margin of 31.4% was 110 basis points lower than the prior year due primarily to 1) lower operational efficiencies related to a carryover impact from 2019 and Company prioritization of products most needed by society during the COVID-19 pandemic, and 2) the exited animal health business, which had a relatively higher gross margin. These were partially offset by favorable product mix and the addition of Ranir.

Reported operating margin was 17.8%. Adjusted operating margin increased 130 basis points to 19.6%, driven by operating leverage on gross margin flow-through and lower operating expenses resulting from Project Momentum savings.

CSCI First Quarter 2020 Results Versus First Quarter 2019

Consumer Self-Care International net sales increased 9.1% to $383 million. Excluding unfavorable currency movements of $13 million and exited businesses, net sales were higher by 14.1%. Organic net sales grew 8.1%.

Net sales growth was due primarily to 1) brand OTC sales attributed to COVID-19 in the upper respiratory and vitamins, minerals and supplements (VMS) categories, and growth in the U.K. store brand business, 2) strong new product sales of $30 million driven by new launches including XLS-Medical Forte 5 and in the ACO skincare line, and 3) $21 million in net sales from Ranir. These drivers were partially offset by lower net sales of existing products in weight management, which is within the healthy lifestyle category, and lower net sales in France.

Reported gross margin was 47.0%. Adjusted gross margin of 51.4% declined 250 basis points due primarily to the addition of Ranir oral self-care products, which have a relatively lower gross margin than the overall CSCI portfolio. In addition, lower operational efficiencies were partially offset by favorable brand product mix.

Reported operating margin was 6.5%. Adjusted operating margin of 16.7% improved 130 basis points due primarily to operating leverage on gross margin flow-through and lower advertising and promotion expense.

RX First Quarter 2020 Results Versus First Quarter 2019

RX net sales increased 6.5% to $258 million due primarily to new product sales of $58 million led by the launch of generic albuterol sulfate inhalation aerosol. This was partially offset by expected pricing pressure associated with testosterone gel 1.62%, which had 180-day market exclusivity in the first quarter of 2019. Discontinued products, consisting of lower margin distribution products, were $5 million.

Reported gross margin was 34.1% and adjusted gross margin was 42.3%. The 630 basis point decline in adjusted gross margin was due primarily to competitive price pressure and lower operational efficiencies compared to last year. These were partially offset by higher gross profit from the incremental sales of generic albuterol sulfate inhalation aerosol.

Reported operating margin was 20.0%. Adjusted operating margin was 28.7%, or 520 basis points lower due primarily to gross margin flow-through, which was partially offset by lower administrative expenses.

Fiscal 2020 Outlook

Due to the volatility and uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact on demand, the Company’s ability to manufacture and supply product and overall fluidity of the current environment, amongst other factors, the Company is not providing updated fiscal 2020 guidance at this time.

Halozyme Announces Janssen’s Receipt Of CHMP Positive Opinion For DARZALEX® Subcutaneous Formulation Utilizing Halozyme’s ENHANZE® Technology For Patients With Multiple Myeloma

On April 30, 2020 Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: HALO) reported that Janssen-Cilag International NV (Janssen) received a Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) Positive Opinion from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommending approval of a DARZALEX (daratumumab) subcutaneous (SC) formulation for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma in frontline and relapsed/refractory settings (Press release, Halozyme, APR 30, 2020, View Source [SID1234556847]). The CHMP’s Positive Opinion for daratumumab SC formulation applies to all current daratumumab indications including newly diagnosed and transplant-ineligible patients, as well as relapsed or refractory patients.

The DARZALEX SC formulation utilizes Halozyme’s ENHANZE drug delivery technology and reduces the treatment time from several hours to approximately five minutes with comparable efficacy to intravenous DARZALEX and lower rates of infusion-related reactions.

"We are excited that a subcutaneous formulation of DARZALEX is one step closer to transforming the treatment experience for multiple myeloma patients and physicians in the European Union," said Dr. Helen Torley, president and chief executive officer. "Once available, multiple myeloma patients may benefit from a shorter infusion time when compared with a multi-hour intravenous infusion."

The CHMP opinion is supported by data from Janssen’s Phase 3 COLUMBA study, which investigated subcutaneously administered DARZALEX in comparison to intravenous DARZALEX in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma, and the Phase 2 PLEIADES study. In the COLUMBA study, subcutaneous DARZALEX, using ENHANZE drug delivery technology, was found to be non-inferior to intravenous DARZALEX with regard to the co-primary endpoints of overall response rate and maximum Ctrough concentration on day 1 of the third treatment cycle prior to dose.

About ENHANZE Technology
Halozyme’s proprietary ENHANZE drug delivery technology is based on its patented recombinant human hyaluronidase enzyme (rHuPH20). rHuPH20 has been shown to remove traditional limitations on the volume of biologics that can be delivered subcutaneously (just under the skin). By using rHuPH20, some biologics and compounds that are administered intravenously may instead be delivered subcutaneously. ENHANZE may also benefit subcutaneous biologics by reducing the need for multiple injections. This delivery has been shown in studies to reduce health care practitioner time required for administration and shorten time for drug administration.

About Achieve & Cytisinicline
Tobacco use is currently the leading cause of preventable death and is responsible for more than eight million deaths annually worldwide1. It is estimated that 28.7% of cancer deaths in the U.S. are attributable to cigarette smoking2. Achieve’s focus is to address the global smoking health epidemic through the development and commercialization of cytisinicline.

Cytisinicline is a plant-based alkaloid with a high binding affinity to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. It is believed to aid in smoking cessation by interacting with nicotine receptors in the brain by reducing the severity of nicotine withdrawal symptoms and by reducing the reward and satisfaction associated with smoking.

As an approved, branded product in Central and Eastern Europe for more than two decades, it is estimated that over 20 million people have used cytisinicline to help combat nicotine addiction.

2020 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE (unaudited)

(I) Quarter Ended March 31, 2020 (Q1)

Revenues

Total Revenues
For Q1 2020, total revenues were $192.5 million, a slight increase over 2019. Total revenues reflect a decline in product sales revenues partially offset by an increase in CDMO and contracts and grants revenues.
Product Sales
For Q1 2020, product sales were $148.2 million, a decrease of $4.8 million or 3% as compared to 2019. The change primarily reflects increases in sales of Anthrax Vaccines and NARCAN Nasal Spray offset by a decrease in ACAM2000, as previously anticipated.

Contract Development and Manufacturing
For Q1 2020, revenue from the Company’s contract development and manufacturing operations was $21.7 million, an increase of $5.8 million or 36% as compared to 2019. The increase primarily reflects increased demand across development services, drug substance and drug product offerings.

Contracts and Grants
For Q1 2020, revenue from the Company’s development-based contracts and grants was $22.6 million, an increase of $0.9 million as compared to 2019. The increase primarily reflects revenues associated with a grant received related to our PC2A (diazepam) auto-injector drug-device product candidate.
Operating Expenses

Cost of Product Sales and Contract Development and Manufacturing
For Q1 2020, cost of product sales and contract manufacturing was $76.9 million, a decrease of $14.9 million or 16% as compared to 2019. The decrease primarily reflects a decrease in sales of ACAM2000 and raxibacumab.
Research and Development (Gross and Net)

For Q1 2020, gross R&D expenses were $42.7 million, a decrease of $3.4 million or 7% as compared to 2019. The decrease primarily reflects a decline of costs associated with the Company’s FLU-IGIV product candidate. During 2019, the Company was incurring costs associated with phase 2 clinical trials for FLU-IGIV.
For Q1 2020, net R&D expense, which reflects investments made in development programs that are not currently funded in whole or in part by third-party partners and is calculated as gross research and development expenses minus contracts and grants revenue, was 20.1 million, a decrease of $4.3 million or 18% as compared to 2019. The decrease is also attributable to a decline of costs associated with the Company’s FLU-IGIV product candidate. The Q1
2020 and Q1 2019 net R&D expense was 12% of adjusted revenue (total revenue less contracts & grants).

Selling, General and Administrative

For Q1 2020, selling, general and administrative expenses were $69.7 million, an increase of $4.3 million or 7% as compared to 2019. The increase primarily reflects additional expenses related to staffing to support the Company’s growth.
