Financial Results and Anticipated Near-term Milestones

As of June 30, 2016, the company’s cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments were $39.7 million compared with $55.2 million as of December 31, 2015.

Based on current expectations, OncoGenex believes that its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments will be sufficient to fund its currently planned operations into the third quarter of 2017. Depending on timing of enrollment or event-driven final analyses, the expected key milestones and activities are as follows:

Custirsen
Announcing results from the AFFINITY trial, the phase 3 trial evaluating a survival benefit for custirsen in combination with cabazitaxel as second-line chemotherapy in approximately 630 patients with castrate-resistant prostate cancer. The final analysis for the intent-to-treat population is expected in the third quarter of 2016.
Announcing results from the ENSPIRIT trial, the phase 3 trial evaluating a survival benefit for custirsen in combination with docetaxel as second-line chemotherapy in approximately 700 patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The final survival analysis is expected by the first half of 2017.
Apatorsen
Announcing results from the Borealis-2 trial, an investigator-sponsored, randomized phase 2 trial evaluating apatorsen in combination with docetaxel treatment compared to docetaxel treatment alone in patients with advanced or metastatic bladder cancer. Final results are expected in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Completing a submission-ready investigational new drug application regarding apatorsen via intravesical administration in combination with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) treatment in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $2.1 million and $5.1 million, respectively, compared to $4.0 million and $5.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Revenue consists of recognition of deferred collaboration revenue representing our efforts in the development of custirsen. As of June 30, 2016, the full amount of the deferred collaboration revenue has been fully recognized.

Total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were $8.5 million and $15.9 million, respectively, compared to $9.6 million and $16.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $6.9 million and $10.6 million, respectively, compared to $6.0 million and $10.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

As of Aug. 4, 2016 OncoGenex had 30,009,730 shares outstanding.

"The second quarter of 2016 was an exciting time for TESARO, marked by the availability of positive clinical results from our NOVA trial of niraparib. These results are the first and only Phase 3 data for a PARP inhibitor in a population of patients with platinum-sensitive, recurrent ovarian cancer," said Lonnie Moulder, CEO of TESARO. "Looking ahead, we intend to leverage these landmark data to enhance our ongoing ovarian cancer trials and expand the overall development strategy for niraparib. We are globalizing our mission of delivering transformative cancer therapies to patients, and are now expanding our commercial footprint in Europe to support planned launches of oral rolapitant and niraparib next year. Finally, our immuno-oncology portfolio continues to rapidly advance, and our antibody candidates targeting TIM-3 and PD-1 are now in Phase 1 studies."

Recent Business Highlights

The U.S. launch of VARUBI continues, and unit volume increased by 30% for the second quarter compared to the first quarter. For the month of June, VARUBI achieved a 27% market share in the oral NK-1 market in the U.S.
The New Drug Application (NDA) for an intravenous (IV) formulation of rolapitant was accepted for review by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and a U.S. launch is planned for the first half of 2017.
The Marketing Authorisation Application (MAA) for oral rolapitant is under review by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). In order to support a launch of niraparib and oral rolapitant in 2017, TESARO is now expanding its commercial operations in key European countries.
In June, TESARO and the European Network for Gynaecological Oncological Trial groups (ENGOT) announced that the Phase 3 NOVA trial of niraparib successfully achieved its primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS). This trial demonstrated that niraparib significantly prolonged PFS compared to control for patients in both the germline BRCA mutation (gBRCAmut) cohort and the non-germline BRCA mutation (non-gBRCAmut) cohort. These data will support NDA and MAA submissions during the fourth quarter of 2016.
Ongoing trials of niraparib in combination with other agents include the TOPACIO trial (formerly KEYNOTE-162) with KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) in patients with ovarian cancer or with triple negative breast cancer, and the AVANOVA trial with bevacizumab in patients with ovarian cancer.
The Phase 1 dose escalation study of TSR-022, our anti-TIM-3 antibody candidate, has been initiated, and the Phase 1 study of TSR-042, our anti-PD-1 antibody candidate, continues to enroll patients.
TESARO completed a public offering of common stock in July 2016, resulting in approximately $409 million in net proceeds.
Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results

TESARO reported a net loss of $58.4 million, or ($1.28) per share, for the second quarter of 2016, compared to a net loss of $60.6 million, or ($1.51) per share, for the second quarter of 2015.

Revenue recognition for certain sales of VARUBI to specialty distributors continues to be deferred at this point in the commercial launch. Net product revenue for the second quarter of 2016 totaled $1.4 million and included sales of VARUBI from specialty pharmacy customers to patients that were made during the second quarter, as well as sales from specialty distributors to providers that occurred in the first quarter of 2016 and the fourth quarter of 2015. The specialty pharmacy sales made during the second quarter represented a small portion of total product shipments. License revenue for the second quarter of 2016 totaled $35.1 million and included an up-front payment of $35 million from Janssen related to initiation of the global niraparib prostate cancer collaboration.

Research and development expenses increased to $50.1 million for the second quarter of 2016, compared to $38.9 million for the second quarter of 2015, driven primarily by higher costs related to the ongoing registration trials of niraparib, manufacturing costs associated with IV rolapitant and niraparib, and the advancement of our immuno-oncology portfolio, in addition to increased headcount.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $36.2 million for the second quarter of 2016, compared to $16.8 million for the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to increased commercial headcount, including the establishment of a U.S. field sales organization in the fall of 2015, commercial activities in support of the launch of VARUBI, and higher professional service fees.

Acquired in-process research and development expenses totaled $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2016 and included a milestone payment related to our immuno-oncology portfolio, compared to $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2015, which also related to a development milestone achieved within our immuno-oncology programs. Operating expenses, as described above, include total non-cash, stock-based compensation expense of $11.7 million for the second quarter of 2016, compared to $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2015.

As of June 30, 2016, TESARO had approximately $320 million in cash and cash equivalents. This cash and cash equivalents total excludes the $409 million in net proceeds resulting from a follow-on offering of 5.3 million shares of common stock that was completed in July 2016.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2016, TESARO had approximately 45.8 million shares outstanding on a weighted average basis. As of July 7, following completion of the follow-on offering on that date, TESARO had approximately 51.4 million outstanding shares of common stock.

In anticipation of four product launches in 2017, TESARO will invest in pre-launch inventory manufacturing, development of supply chain capabilities and capacity, and expansion of European and targeted U.S. commercial operations, in addition to making milestone payments for regulatory submissions. As a result of these investments, the Company expects its cash and cash equivalents balance to decline by approximately $100 million on average, per quarter, during the third and fourth quarters of 2016.

"During the second quarter, we finalized the protocol for IGNITE4, our upcoming phase 3 clinical trial evaluating IV eravacycline in patients with complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI), and remain on track to initiate this trial early in the fourth quarter of 2016," said Guy Macdonald, Tetraphase’s President and Chief Executive Officer. "Based on discussions with the FDA, we have designed IGNITE4 using a 12.5% non-inferiority margin and a trial population of approximately 450 patients. We currently anticipate reporting top-line results from IGNITE4 as early as the fourth quarter of 2017. In parallel, we are also working to finalize the trial design for IGNITE3, our phase 3 clinical trial evaluating once-daily IV eravacycline in complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI), and we look forward to providing details regarding the design and timing of IGNITE3 once the protocol is completed."

Dr. Patrick Horn, Tetraphase’s Chief Medical Officer, commented, "Separately, we continue to advance development work on the oral formulation of eravacycline. Early data from this phase 1 program indicate that the oral dosing regimen used in IGNITE2 leads to lower systemic levels of eravacycline than expected. These data also suggest that administration of oral eravacycline in a fasted state results in increased drug exposure. With this information now in hand, we have commenced further clinical testing designed to evaluate several additional variables associated with optimizing the oral eravacycline dosing regimen."

"Along with the advancement of our clinical programs, we continue to build the profile of eravacycline by testing it against multidrug-resistant bacterial strains in vitro and, at ASM Microbe and ECCMID we presented data showing eravacycline’s potent activity against these difficult-to-treat pathogens, including carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae and Acinetobacter baumannii," added Dr. Horn. "We also recently confirmed that in in vitro studies eravacycline retained its potent activity against colistin-resistant clinical isolates expressing the mcr-1 gene, which was just found in bacteria in the U.S. for the first time, and we look forward to presenting these data at an upcoming medical meeting."

Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results

As of June 30, 2016, Tetraphase had cash and cash equivalents of $178.3 million and 36.7 million shares outstanding. The company expects that its cash and cash equivalents, as well as expected revenue from its U.S. government awards, will be sufficient to fund operations into the middle of 2018.

Revenues during the second quarter of 2016 were $1.2 million compared to $3.3 million for the same period in 2015. Revenues for each period consisted of contract and grant revenue under the Company’s U.S. government awards for the development of Tetraphase compounds for the treatment of diseases caused by bacterial biothreat pathogens and for certain infections caused by life-threatening multidrug-resistant bacteria. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to the scope and timing of activities related to our BARDA Contract conducted during the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were $13.7 million compared to $22.9 million for the same period in 2015. The decrease in R&D expenses was primarily due to lower costs related to our Phase 3 clinical program for eravacycline.

General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were $4.8 million compared to $6.5 million for the same period in 2015. The decrease in G&A expenses was primarily due to a decrease in stock-based compensation expense, as well as a decrease in pre-commercialization activities for eravacycline.

For the second quarter of 2016, Tetraphase reported a net loss of $17.2 million, or $0.47 per share, compared to a net loss of $26.0 million, or $0.72 per share, for the same period in 2015.

Second Quarter and Recent Corporate Highlights

Presented data at the 26th European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ECCMID), including preclinical data for eravacycline and TP-6076.

Received guidance from the U.S. FDA confirming that one additional positive phase 3 clinical trial will be required to support a New Drug Application (NDA) submission for IV eravacycline. Based on the FDA’s guidance, Tetraphase plans to conduct two additional pivotal phase 3 clinical trials: one in cIAI (IGNITE4) to support the NDA filing and one in cUTI (IGNITE3) that will form the basis of a supplemental NDA for IV eravacycline.

Finalized the clinical trial design for IGNITE4 to support an NDA filing for IV eravacycline for cIAI. IGNITE4, the Company’s planned phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of twice-daily IV eravacycline compared to meropenem in patients with cIAI, is expected to enroll approximately 450 patients and the primary analysis will be conducted using a 12.5% non-inferiority margin. Tetraphase expects to initiate this clinical trial early in the fourth quarter of 2016, with top-line results expected as early as the fourth quarter of 2017.

Presented data at the American Society of Microbiology (ASM) Microbe 2016 Conference, including clinical and preclinical data for eravacycline and preclinical data for TP-271, a novel, broad-spectrum antibiotic candidate which is being developed to combat respiratory disease caused by bacterial biothreats and antibiotic-resistant public health pathogens, as well as bacterial pathogens associated with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia.

Commenced patient dosing in a phase 1 clinical trial for TP-6076, the lead candidate from the Company’s second-generation antibiotic program which has demonstrated potent preclinical activity against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens.
Continued clinical testing designed to advance the development of an oral dose formulation of eravacycline. During the second quarter, Tetraphase completed preliminary clinical testing which indicates that the overall efficacy results in IGNITE2 were likely driven by underperformance of the oral formulation due to a food effect. Preliminary clinical testing also suggests that administration of oral eravacycline in a fasted state results in increased drug exposure. Further clinical testing is now underway to evaluate several additional variables associated with increasing drug exposure and optimizing the oral eravacycline dosing regimen.

Second Quarter 2016 Results
Revenues in the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $5.0 billion, up 1% compared to the second quarter of 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, revenues increased 4%.
Exchange rate differences between the second quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of 2015 reduced revenues by $141 million, GAAP operating income by $55 million and non-GAAP operating income by $52 million.
GAAP gross profit was $2.9 billion in the second quarter of 2016, down 1%, compared to the second quarter of 2015. GAAP gross profit margin was 57.1% in the quarter, compared to 58.4% in the second quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP gross profit was $3.2 billion in the second quarter of 2016, up 1% from the second quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP gross profit margin was 62.5% in the second quarter of 2016, compared to 62.8% in the second quarter of 2015.
Research and Development (R&D) expense (excluding equity compensation expenses and purchase of in-process R&D) in the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $370 million, compared to $357 million in the second quarter of 2015. R&D expenses were 7.3% of revenues in the quarter, compared to 7.2% in the second quarter of 2015. R&D expenses related to our generic medicines segment amounted to $125 million, compared to $134 million in the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of 7%. R&D expenses related to our specialty medicines segment amounted to $245 million, an increase of 11% compared to $220 million in the second quarter of 2015, mainly due to increased development costs related to assets acquired through the Labrys and Auspex transactions.
Selling and Marketing (S&M) expenses (excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets and equity compensation expenses) amounted to $898 million, or 17.8% of revenues, in the second quarter of 2016, compared to $846 million, or 17.0% of revenues, in the second quarter of 2015. S&M expenses related to our generic medicines segment amounted to $333 million, a decrease of 1% compared to $335 million in the second quarter of 2015, but an increase of 7% in local currency terms. The increase in local currency terms was mainly due to the additional costs related to our acquisition of Rimsa in the first quarter of 2016 and to the commencement of activities of our business venture in Japan. S&M expenses related to our specialty medicines segment amounted to $478 million, an increase of 5% in both U.S. dollar and local currency terms compared to $457 million in the second quarter of 2015, mainly due to increased royalties on sales.
General and Administrative (G&A) expenses (excluding equity compensation expenses) amounted to $299 million in the second quarter of 2016, or 5.9% of revenues, compared to $307 million and 6.2% in the second quarter of 2015.
GAAP operating income was $0.4 billion in the second quarter of 2016, down 45% compared to $0.7 billion in the second quarter of 2015. Quarterly non-GAAP operating income was $1.6 billion, down 2% compared to the second quarter of 2015.
EBITDA (non-GAAP operating income, which excludes amortization and certain other items, and excluding depreciation expenses for the period) amounted to $1.7 billion, down 1% compared to the second quarter of 2015.
GAAP financial expenses for the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $105 million, compared to $41 million in the second quarter of 2015. The increase in expenses is mainly the result of an impairment of our investment in Mesoblast. Non-GAAP financial expenses amounted to $6 million in the second quarter of 2016, compared to $41 million in the second quarter of 2015.
GAAP income tax expenses for the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $29 million, or 11% on pre-tax income of $256 million. In the second quarter of 2015, the provision for income taxes amounted to $88 million, or 14% on pre-tax income of $621 million. The provision for non-GAAP income taxes for the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $333 million on pre-tax non-GAAP income of $1.6 billion, for a quarterly tax rate of 21%. The provision for non-GAAP income taxes in the second quarter of 2015 was $345 million on pre-tax non-GAAP income of $1.6 billion, for a quarterly tax rate of 22%. While the tax rate may fluctuate quarterly, we expect our annual non-GAAP tax rate for 2016 to be 21%, similar to the rate in 2015.
For the second quarter of 2016, the weighted average outstanding shares for the fully diluted earnings per share calculation was 920 million on a GAAP basis and 979 million on a non-GAAP basis. The average weighted diluted shares outstanding used for the fully diluted share calculation for the second quarter of 2015 were 859 million shares, on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. The increase in the number of shares resulted from our December 2015 equity offerings, with the number of shares on a non-GAAP basis including the potential dilution resulting from our mandatory convertible preferred shares, which had a dilutive effect on our non-GAAP earnings per share.
Excluding the impact of the December 2015 equity offerings to finance the Actavis Generics acquisition, the weighted average outstanding shares for the fully diluted earnings per share calculation on a non-GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2016 was 860 million shares.
As of June 30, 2016, the fully diluted share count for calculating Teva’s market capitalization was approximately 995 million shares.
GAAP net income attributable to Teva and GAAP diluted EPS were $254 million and $0.20, respectively, in the second quarter of 2016, compared to $539 million and $0.63, respectively, in the second quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS were $1.2 billion and $1.25, respectively, in the second quarter of 2016, compared to $1.2 billion and $1.43 in the second quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP EPS adjusted to exclude the December 2015 equity offerings was $1.43.
Non-GAAP information: Net non-GAAP adjustments in the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $974 million. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS for the quarter were adjusted to exclude the following items:
Impairment of long-lived assets of $572 million mainly related to Revascor and Zecuity;
Amortization of purchased intangible assets totaling $193 million, of which $146 million is included in cost of goods sold and the remaining $47 million in selling and marketing expenses;
Legal settlements and loss contingencies of $166 million mainly related to a settlement in principle reached in connection with the aripiprazole litigation;
Financial expenses of $99 million related to the impairment of our investment in Mesoblast;
Inventory step-up of $85 million;
Acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses of $82 million;
Other write-offs associated with the impairment of Zecuity and other items of $57 million;
Costs related to regulatory actions taken in facilities of $39 million;
Equity compensation of $28 million;
Minority interest adjustment of negative $43 million; and
Related tax benefit of $304 million.
The non-GAAP data presented by Teva are the results used by Teva’s management and board of directors to evaluate the operational performance of the company, to compare against the company’s work plans and budgets, and ultimately to evaluate the performance of management. Teva provides such non-GAAP data to investors as supplemental data and not in substitution or replacement for GAAP results, because management believes such data provides useful information to investors and facilitates investors’ understanding of its business. See the attached tables for a reconciliation of the U.S. GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP figures.
Cash flow from operations generated during the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $1.0 billion, a decrease of 35% compared to the second quarter of 2015. The decrease was mainly due to an increase in accounts receivables, net of SR&A, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable. Free cash flow, excluding net capital expenditures, amounted to $0.8 billion, a decrease of 40% compared to the second quarter of 2015.
Cash and investments at June 30, 2016 increased to $8.2 billion, compared to $7.2 billion at March 31, 2016.
Total shareholders’ equity was $32.0 billion at June 30, 2016, compared to $30.6 billion at March 31, 2016.

* Segment profit consists of gross profit for the segment, less R&D and S&M expenses related to the segment. Segment profit does not include G&A expenses, amortization and certain other items.
Generic Medicines Revenues
Generic medicines revenues in the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $2.3 billion, a decrease of 7% compared to the second quarter of 2015. In local currency terms, revenues decreased 4%.
Generic revenues consisted of:
U.S. revenues of $892 million, a decrease of 33% compared to the second quarter of 2015. The decrease resulted mainly from a decline in sales of aripiprazole (Abilify), esomeprazole (Nexium) and budesonide (Pulmicort) due to loss of exclusivity.
European revenues of $660 million, a decrease of 1%, in both U.S. dollar and local currency terms, compared to the second quarter of 2015. This resulted mainly from our strategy of pursuing profitable and sustainable business in the region along with higher API sales to third parties.
ROW revenues of $742 million, an increase of 56%, or 71% in local currency terms, compared to the second quarter of 2015. The increase in local currency terms was mainly due to higher revenues in Japan from our new business venture with Takeda, which commenced operations in April 2016, as well as an increase in revenues in Venezuela and Canada.
API sales to third parties of $207 million (which is included in the market revenues above), an increase of 13%, compared to the second quarter of 2015, with higher revenues in both Europe and the United States.
Generic medicines revenues comprised 46% of our total revenues in the quarter, compared to 50% in the second quarter of 2015.
Generic Medicines Gross Profit
Gross profit from our generic medicines segment in the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $1.1 billion, a decrease of 11% compared to the second quarter of 2015. The lower gross profit was mainly a result of the lower sales of aripiprazole (Abilify) and esomeprazole (Nexium) in the United States, which are both high gross profit products. This decrease was partially offset by higher gross profit of our ROW and European markets and of our API business. Gross profit margin for our generic medicines segment in the second quarter of 2016 decreased to 46.7%, from 48.6% in the second quarter of 2015.
Generic Medicines Profit
Our generic medicines segment generated profit of $614 million in the second quarter of 2016, a decrease of 16% compared to the second quarter of 2015. Generic medicines profitability as a percentage of generic medicines revenues was 26.8% in the second quarter of 2016, down from 29.6% in the second quarter of 2015. The decrease was primarily due to the lower gross profit of the segment.

Copaxone revenues in the United States amounted to $955 million, an increase of 10% compared to the second quarter of 2015.
