Highlights
Net revenue increased 13% to $152.0 million compared to $134.6 million in the same quarter last year. Excluding the impact of adopting the new revenue standard, ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, net revenue decreased 1%.
GAAP Diluted EPS from continuing operations increased 61% to $1.21 per share from $0.75 per share in the same quarter last year. The 2018 results reflect a lower tax rate as a result of tax reform in the United States. Excluding the impact of adopting ASC 606, Diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.87 per share.
EBITDA increased 22% to $52.2 million compared to $42.6 million in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the impact of adopting ASC 606, decreased to $37.2 million from $42.6 million in the same quarter last year (see table at the end of this release).
Net cash was $171.3 million at the end of the quarter, a decrease of $16.2 million during the quarter.
The Company continues to expect full year 2018 Adjusted net revenue growth, which excludes the impact of foreign currency and adoption of ASC 606, to be between -2% and 2% compared to 2017 and Adjusted EBITDA to be between $150 and $160 million. This does not include the impact of the Halo acquisition (see Financial Expectations – Continuing Operations section below for related explanations and additional financial guidance).
Entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Halo Pharma, a leading dosage form Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) specializing in product development and commercial manufacturing, for approximately $425 million in total cash consideration.
"Our recent accomplishments mark significant progress toward our goals of investing in increased capacity and expanding our capabilities in order to take advantage of favorable industry trends and provide best-in-class services for our global customers. Most notably, we were pleased to announce the agreement to acquire Halo Pharma, which expands our offerings into finished dose development and manufacturing, while diversifying our customer base and accelerating our revenue growth," commented Steven M. Klosk, President and Chief Executive Officer.

"We are also encouraged by second quarter performance across our three product categories. We recently added a new late-stage clinical project to our innovator portfolio with the potential to generate between $5 million and $10 million in peak API sales. This brings the total to three new late-stage projects added during the first half of 2018, with the combined potential to generate greater than $25 million in API revenue. Sales of generic APIs and controlled substances were also strong in the quarter."

Basis of Reporting
The Company has provided a reconciliation of GAAP to adjusted (i.e. Non-GAAP) amounts at the end of this press release. Cambrex management believes that the adjustments provide useful information to investors due to the magnitude and nature of certain amounts recorded under GAAP.

Second Quarter 2018 Operating Results – Continuing Operations
Net revenue was $152.0 million, an increase of $17.5 million, or 13%, compared to the second quarter of 2017. Excluding a 2% favorable impact of foreign exchange compared to the second quarter of 2017, net revenue increased 11%. The increase in volumes is driven by higher custom development products, generic APIs and the adoption of ASC 606, which accelerated revenue recognition for a portion of Cambrex’s portfolio, enabling revenues for certain products to be recognized over time, rather than upon delivery to the customer. Cambrex elected the modified retrospective method which did not require prior periods to be restated. The increases were partially offset by lower pricing. Excluding the impact of adopting ASC 606, net revenue decreased 1%.

Gross margins were flat at 43% versus the same quarter last year. Excluding the impact of adopting ASC 606, gross margin was 37%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $16.0 million, compared to $18.1 million in the same quarter last year. This decrease was primarily due to lower personnel related costs.

Research and development expenses were $4.1 million, compared to $4.5 million in the same quarter last year. This decrease was primarily driven by the timing of spending on the development of generic drug products.

Operating profit was $44.7 million compared to $35.0 million in the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily the result of higher gross profit and lower operating expenses as described above. Excluding the impact of adopting ASC 606, operating profit was $29.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $37.2 million compared to $42.6 million in the same quarter last year (see table at the end of this press release).

Income tax expense was $8.7 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 18% compared to $9.2 million and an effective tax rate of 27% in the same quarter last year. The reduction in the effective tax rate reflects the impact of tax reform in the United States.

Income from continuing operations was $40.9 million or $1.21 per share compared to $25.1 million or $0.75 per share in the same quarter last year. Excluding the impact of adopting ASC 606, Diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.87 per share.

Adjusted income from continuing operations was $24.7 million or $0.74 per share, compared to $25.4 million or $0.76 per share in the same quarter last year (see table at the end of this press release).

Capital expenditures were $8.9 million and depreciation and amortization was $7.5 million compared to $10.7 million and $7.6 million, respectively, in the same quarter last year.

Net cash was $171.3 million at the end of the second quarter, a decrease of $16.2 million during the quarter.

The following table shows the Company’s current expectations for its full year 2018 financial performance versus its expectations from the previous quarter. These expectations do not reflect the impact of the acquisition of Halo Pharma on 2018 results. The Company expects to issue revised guidance in our third quarter call once the acquisition has closed.

tations are for continuing operations and exclude the impact of any potential acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring activities, outcomes of tax disputes and the adoption of ASC 606 which became effective January 1, 2018. Adjusted net revenue growth expectations exclude the impact of foreign exchange and the adoption of ASC 606. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted income from continuing operations per share for 2018 will be computed on a basis consistent with the reconciliation of the current quarter financial results in the tables at the end of this press release. Free cash flow is defined as the change in debt, net of cash during the year. Adjusted effective tax rate excludes certain effects of share-based payments that were possibly deferred under the previous guidance. The tax rate will be sensitive to the Company’s geographic mix of income, changes in the tax laws or rates within the countries in which the Company operates and the effects of certain share-based payments.

The financial information contained in this press release is unaudited, subject to revision and should not be considered final until the Company’s Form 10-Q for second quarter 2018 is filed with the SEC.

"We’re proud to announce that we have just initiated the Phase 1/2a clinical trial for GEN-009, our lead neoantigen vaccine candidate," said Chip Clark, president and chief executive officer of Genocea. "We continue to expect to report the early immunogenicity data from the first patient cohort in the first half of 2019 and remain hopeful these data will provide additional evidence that our ATLAS platform identifies what we call true neoantigens, which we expect to enable more immunogenic and, ultimately, more efficacious vaccines." Mr. Clark concluded, "This is an exciting time at Genocea, as we believe we are well positioned to help transform cancer treatment."

Recent Milestones & Events

April 2018: Genocea scientists presented data at the 2018 Annual Meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) (Free AACR Whitepaper) further highlighting the advantages of its ATLAS platform over in silico methods in identifying both neoantigens for vaccine inclusion and "inhibitory" neoantigens for exclusion and detailing the development of a novel model to study the mechanism of inhibitory antigens identified by ATLAS.

April 2018: Genocea filed an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to begin clinical development of GEN-009.

May 2018: Genocea announced the acceptance of the GEN-009 IND by the FDA. Genocea is currently conducting a Phase 1/2a clinical trial for GEN-009 in patients with a variety of tumor types and expects to report top-line immune response data from the initial patient cohort in the first half of 2019.

Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Cash Position: As of June 30, 2018, cash and cash equivalents were $44.2 million compared to $12.3 million as of December 31, 2017.

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $5.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, compared to $11.4 million for the same period in 2017. This decrease was largely due to reduced headcount, external development, lab, clinical, and other R&D costs.

General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses were $4.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2017. This increase was primarily due to increased consulting and professional services costs, offset by reduced compensation and benefits costs.

Other Income (Expense): Other Income for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 was $5.4 million compared to Other Expense of $0.4 million for the same period in 2017. Other Income for the second quarter of 2018 is

Exhibit 99.1

primarily comprised of the non-cash change in fair value of warrants to purchase shares of Genocea common stock.

Net Loss: Net loss was $4.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, compared to a net loss of $15.4 million for quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Financial Guidance
Genocea’s financial guidance is unchanged; the company continues to expect that its existing cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to support its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the fourth quarter of 2019.

During the second quarter, under its existing at-the-market equity offering program (ATM), Genocea sold an aggregate of 3.5 million shares of its common stock, receiving approximately $2.9 million in net proceeds after deducting commissions.

Also during the second quarter, Genocea amended its loan and security agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc., to provide up to $14.0 million in debt financing in the form of a term loan. The previous agreement, entered into in 2014, had provided up to $27.0 million in debt financing. This amended loan agreement provides for interest-only payments until June 1, 2019; this date may be extended should certain performance milestones be met.

Genocea continues to explore strategic alternatives for GEN-003, its Phase 3-ready investigational immunotherapy for the treatment of genital herpes.

Conference Call
Genocea will host a conference call and webcast today at 9:00 a.m. ET. The conference call may be accessed by dialing (800) 347-6311 (domestic) or (323) 994-2131 (international) and referring to conference ID number 3544411.

(NASDAQ: AMAG) reported unaudited consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 (Press release, AMAG Pharmaceuticals, AUG 2, 2018, View Source [SID1234528748]). The company announced the sale of Cord Blood Registry (CBR) in June 2018, which is currently expected to close in mid-August 2018. As a result of the pending sale, CBR is being classified as discontinued operations for accounting purposes and is presented separately on AMAG’s GAAP consolidated statements of operations and consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The company has revised its full year 2018 financial guidance to reflect continued strong performance of its pharmaceutical products and the impact of the pending sale of CBR.

Total GAAP revenue from continuing operations (excluding CBR) increased in the second quarter of 2018 to $146.3 million, 12% higher than the same period last year. The year-over-year increase was driven by increased sales of Feraheme (ferumoxytol injection) and Makena (hydroxyprogesterone caproate injection), as well as the commercial launch of Intrarosa (prasterone) in the third quarter of 2017. The company reported operating income from continuing operations of $41.9 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared with operating income of $3.3 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (excluding CBR) totaled $60.6 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared with $41.4 million in the second quarter of 2017.1

"We have had an extraordinary first half of 2018, with the achievement of a number of important regulatory milestones and strong commercial success across the portfolio," said Bill Heiden, AMAG’s president and chief executive officer. "In the second quarter, our commercial teams generated record setting sales performance for each of our products and these strong results, combined with confidence in our prospects for the second half of 2018, allow us to again raise both annual revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance for our pharmaceutical business. The divestiture of CBR is another important step in our plan to align the company’s balance sheet with our strategic growth plan, which focuses on the development and commercialization of innovative pharmaceuticals."

Second Quarter 2018 and Recent Business Highlights:

Achieved record quarterly sales

Makena revenues exceeded $105 million in the quarter, reaching an all-time high market share of 51%

Financial Results from Continuing Operations (GAAP Basis)
As a result of the pending sale of CBR, which is expected to close in mid-August, AMAG’s CBR business has been excluded from its continuing operations for all periods presented and is shown separately as discontinued operations.

Total revenues from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2018 increased 12% to $146.3 million, compared with $130.4 million in the second quarter of 2017. Sales of Feraheme and MuGard increased 37% to $37.8 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared with $27.7 million in the second quarter of 2017.

Net product sales of Makena increased 2% to $105.2 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared with $102.7 million in the same period last year. Intrarosa, which was commercially launched in July 2017, contributed $3.2 million in net sales during the second quarter of 2018.

Costs and expenses from continuing operations, including cost of product sales, totaled $104.4 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared with $127.1 million for the same period in 2017. Included in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses was an expense reversal of $49.8 million, which was recorded to remove the Makena contingent consideration liability because the company no longer believes that it is probable that the sales milestone will be achieved. Excluding this accounting adjustment, total costs and expenses from continuing operations increased by $27.1 million to $154.2 million. Cost of product sales increased by $44.7 million, of which $36.4 million was an increase in amortization expense primarily related to the Makena intramuscular intangible asset. Research and development costs decreased by $18.6 million during the period. Acquired IPR&D expense in 2017 consisted of $5.8 million in connection with consideration paid under the company’s agreement with Endoceutics for the rights to Intrarosa.

2 Includes $60 million of cash and investments held in a CBR account, which is currently recorded as an asset held for sale. These cash and investments will be returned to AMAG upon closing of the transaction.

Operating income from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2018 was $41.9 million, compared with of $3.3 million for the same period last year. The company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $25.8 million, or $0.75 loss per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2018, compared with a net loss of $14.3 million, or $0.41 loss per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2017. The primary driver of the second quarter 2018 net loss from continuing operations was the $52 million expense incurred to increase the company’s valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

Financial Results from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP Basis)1
Total costs and expenses from continuing operations on a non-GAAP basis totaled $85.7 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared with $89.0 million in the second quarter of 2017. This decrease was primarily due to lower research and development costs in 2018, partially offset by higher cost of product sales and higher SG&A expenses related to investments to support the launches of the broad Feraheme label, Makena SC auto-injector and Intrarosa.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (excluding CBR) for the second quarter of 2018 was $60.6 million, compared with $41.4 million in the second quarter of 2017.

Net Income from Discontinued Operations
As a result of the pending sale, CBR is being classified as discontinued operations for accounting purposes. Net income from discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2018 was $5.7 million compared with $0.2 million for the same period in 2017.

Balance Sheet Highlights
As of June 30, 2018, the company’s cash and investments totaled $410 million2 and total debt (principal amount outstanding) was $816.4 million.

"Continued execution across the business gives us confidence to increase our financial guidance for 2018," said Ted Myles, AMAG’s chief financial officer. "The sale of CBR will allow us to eliminate the senior notes from our capital structure and strengthen our balance sheet as we continue to generate adjusted EBITDA. Our long-term strategy focuses on continuing to grow and further diversify our pharmaceutical portfolio. Our liquidity profile gives us considerable flexibility to invest in and grow our current products and to pursue new business development opportunities."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
AMAG has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP costs and expenses and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization). These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain amounts, expenses or income, from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful for investors, taken in conjunction with AMAG’s GAAP financial statements, because it provides greater transparency regarding AMAG’s operating performance. Management uses these measures, among other factors, to assess and analyze operational results and trends and to make financial and operational decisions. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of AMAG’s operating results as reported under GAAP, not as a substitute for GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP information provided by other companies. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Reconciliations between these non-GAAP financial measures and the most comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release after the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
