Joe Wiley, CEO of Amryt Pharma, commented: “I am pleased to report today’s very strong operational and financial results which reflect another excellent quarter for Amryt. Our record Q2 revenues of $68.5M demonstrates the strong performance our business is delivering. In particular, metreleptin continues to grow strongly, delivering 49.9% YoY growth in the quarter, excluding the impact of a sporadic LATAM order booked in Q2 2021. Overall, these results demonstrate the robust growth we are experiencing and represent our tenth consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA generation.
During the quarter, the European Commission approved Filsuvez® for the treatment of Dystrophic and Junctional EB in patients 6 months and older.

Filsuvez® is our fourth commercial product and we have in place the team, financial flexibility and global infrastructure to commercialize it swiftly and to execute our significant growth plans. We also look forward to potentially leveraging our European approval across other jurisdictions globally.

3 EBITDA is earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation and share based compensation expenses. To supplement Amryt's financial results presented in accordance with IFRS generally accepted accounting principles, the Company uses EBITDA as a key measure of company performance as the Company believes that this measure is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of the Company and provides management and investors with useful supplementary information which can enhance their ability to evaluate the operating performance of the business. EBITDA, as measured by the Company, is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute to operating profit / loss attributable to Amryt and should be read in conjunction with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Filsuvez® Regulatory Update:
On June 23, 2022, Amryt announced the European Commission (EC) approval of Filsuvez® in the European Union (EU) for the treatment of partial thickness wounds associated with dystrophic and junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) in patients 6 months and older. EB is a rare and distressing genetic skin disorder affecting young children and adults for which, until now, there has been no approved treatment in any market.
The centralised marketing authorisation will be valid in all EU Member States as well as in Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway. The authorization of Filsuvez® in the EU provides a regulatory core dossier which can form the basis for future regulatory submissions in LATAM and the Middle East.
The EC approval of Filsuvez® is supported by Phase 3 data from the EASE trial which was the largest ever global trial conducted in patients with EB, performed across 58 sites in 28 countries.
During Q2 2022, Amryt had a Type A meeting with the FDA to discuss the issues raised in the Complete Response Letter (CRL) received in February 2022 relating to Amryt’s NDA for Oleogel-S10. Following this meeting, Amryt plans to proceed to the Formal Dispute Resolution pathway with the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) by which NDA applicants can seek to resolve scientific and/or medical disputes that cannot be resolved at the division level.
Guidance & Outlook:
Given the continued strong performance of the Company’s commercial products and notwithstanding the impact of the strengthening US dollar on the Company’s Euro denominated revenues, the board is today reaffirming revenue guidance for FY 2022 in the range of

1. General information
Amryt is a global commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on acquiring, developing and commercializing innovative treatments to help improve the lives of patients with rare and orphan diseases. Amryt comprises a strong and growing portfolio of commercial and development assets.
As used herein, references to ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ ‘‘Amryt’’ or the ‘‘Group’’ in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements shall mean Amryt Pharma plc and its global subsidiaries, collectively. References to the ‘‘Company’’ in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements shall mean Amryt Pharma plc.
Amryt Pharma plc is a company incorporated in England and Wales. The Company is listed on Nasdaq (ticker: AMYT). The Company was also listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange (ticker: AMYT) up until January 11, 2022, on which date the Company completed the cancellation its admission to AIM. The cancellation was announced by the Company on November 22, 2021, and following the AIM delisting, the Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) remain listed, and will only be tradeable, on Nasdaq. The Company’s last day of trading on AIM was 10 January 2022.
Amryt acquired Chiasma, Inc. (“Chiasma”) in August 2021. The combined company will be a global leader in rare and orphan diseases with four on-market commercial products, a global commercial and operational footprint and a significant development pipeline of therapies with the financial flexibility to execute its growth plans. Amryt’s commercial business comprises four orphan disease products – metreleptin (Myalept®/ Myalepta®); oral octreotide (Mycapssa®); lomitapide (Juxtapid®/ Lojuxta®); and Oleogel-S10 (Filsuvez®).
Amryt's lead development candidate, Oleogel-S10 is a potential treatment for the cutaneous manifestations of JEB and DEB, a rare and distressing genetic skin disorder affecting young children and adults. Filsuvez® has been selected as the brand name for Oleogel-S10. On June 23, 2022, Amryt announced the European Commission (EC) approval of Filsuvez® in the European Union (EU) for the treatment of partial thickness wounds associated with dystrophic and junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) in patients 6 months and older. The centralized marketing authorization will be valid in all EU Member States as well as in Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway. The authorization of Filsuvez® in the EU provides a regulatory core dossier which may form the basis for future regulatory submissions in LATAM and the Middle East. The EC approval of Filsuvez® is supported by Phase 3 data from the EASE trial which was the largest ever global trial conducted in patients with EB, performed across 58 sites in 28 countries.
During Q2 2022, Amryt had a Type A meeting with the FDA to discuss the issues raised in the Complete Response Letter (CRL) received in February 2022 relating to Amryt’s New Drug Application (NDA) for Oleogel-S10. Following this meeting, Amryt is proceeding to the Formal Dispute Resolution pathway in the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) by which NDA applicants can seek to resolve scientific and/or medical disputes that cannot be resolved at the division level.
2. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all the information required in annual financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘‘IFRS’’) and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the Group’s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements. The accounting policies used in the preparation of the interim financial information are the same as those used in the Group’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, and those which are expected to be used in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the financial year ending December 31, 2022.
Basis of going concern
Having considered the Group’s current financial position and cash flow projections, the Board of Directors believes that the Group will be able to continue in operational existence for at least the next 12 months from the date of approval of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements and that it is appropriate to continue to prepare the condensed consolidated interim financial statements on a going concern basis.
As part of their inquiries, the Board of Directors reviewed budgets, projected cash flows, and other relevant information for a period not less than 12 months from the date of approval of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2022.
Basis of consolidation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group for the period ended June 30, 2022. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Where the Company has control over an investee, it is classified as a subsidiary. The Company controls an investee if all three of the following elements are present: power over an investee, exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and the ability to use its power to affect those variable returns. Control is reassessed whenever facts and circumstances indicate that there may be a change in any of these elements of control.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. Intergroup balances and any unrealized gains or losses, income or expenses arising from intergroup transactions are eliminated in preparing the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Presentation of balances
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars (‘‘US$’’), rounded to the nearest thousand, which is the functional currency of the Company and presentation currency of the Group.

Changes in accounting policies and disclosures
There are no new standards and amendments to IFRS effective as of January 1, 2022, that are relevant to the Group.
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and amounts reported in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and accompanying notes. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The significant estimates, assumptions or judgements, applied in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements were the same as those applied in the Group’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Principal accounting policies
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the Group’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

4. Share based payments
Share-based Compensation Plans
Amryt’s Equity Incentive Plan
Amryt’s Equity Incentive Plan was adopted by a special resolution on September 23, 2019. Prior to such date, we granted options under a prior employee share option plan, which had the same terms and conditions as the Equity Incentive Plan. On September 24, 2019, all options held under our prior share option plan were rolled over into options to subscribe for our ordinary shares with the key terms including strike price, vesting and the expiration date of such rolled over options remaining the same as they were on the issue date of the options under the prior share option plan. The Equity Incentive Plan was approved for amendment by the Board on May 18, 2020, August 3, 2021, and November 2, 2021. The purpose of the Plan is to provide for the granting of Equity Incentives to Directors and Employees of, and Consultants to, the Company or any Associated Company.
Chiasma Equity Incentive Plan
When Amryt acquired Chiasma in August 2021, the Chiasma Stock Option and Incentive Plan transferred across to Amryt. Each outstanding and unexercised Chiasma Stock Option or RSU, whether vested or not vested, ceased to represent a right to acquire shares of Chiasma common stock and were converted into an option to purchase Amryt ADSs on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Chiasma Stock Option and Incentive Plan immediately prior to the acquisition.
No new stock option or RSUs will be granted under the Chiasma stock option and incentive plan.
Terms and Conditions of New Share Option Grants
The terms and conditions of new grants are as follows, whereby all options are settled by physical delivery of shares:
Vesting conditions
The employee share options vest following a period of service by the officer or employee. The required period of service is determined by the Remuneration Committee at the date of grant of the options (usually the date of approval by the Remuneration Committee). There are no market conditions associated with the share option vesting periods.
Contractual life
The term of an option is determined by the Remuneration Committee provided that the term may not exceed a period of seven to ten years from the date of grant. All options will terminate 90 days after termination of the option holder’s employment, service or consultancy with the Group except in certain circumstances or where a longer period is approved by the Board of Directors. Under certain circumstances involving a change in control of the Group, some options will automatically accelerate and become exercisable in full as of a date specified by the Board of Directors.
All share option incentives granted are in the form of ordinary shares. Share option exercise prices below are the exercise price per ordinary share. The ADS equivalent exercise price will be the ordinary share exercise price multiplied by five and the number of ADSs will be the number of ordinary shares divided by five.
The number and weighted average exercise price (in Sterling pence) of share options per ordinary share granted under Amryt’s Equity Incentive Plan and the Chiasma stock option and incentive plan is as follows:

The fair value of the Amryt equity award is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions attached to the grant. The fair value of the Chiasma equity awards transferred to Amryt on acquisition were measured in accordance with IFRS 2. The portion of the value of the equity transferred to Amryt attributable to pre-combination service is included in the consideration at the date of acquisition. The portion of the equity awards transferred to Amryt attributable to post combination service is estimated at the date of transfer using Black Scholes pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions attached to the grant.
The following are the inputs to the model for the equity instruments granted during the period:

Performance conditions determine how many of these performance stock units will vest and, if performance targets are exceeded, additional performance stock units will be issued and vest in accordance with the terms of the relevant performance stock units award. The PSUs vest based on the Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) of Amryt’s NASDAQ traded common stock relative to the TSRs of the constituents that comprise the NASDAQ Biotechnology Index (the Peer Group) as of January 1, 2022. TSR for Amryt and each peer company will be measured over the period from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024. The payout schedule can produce payout percentages ranging from

5. Business combinations and asset acquisitions
Acquisition of Chiasma
On May 5, 2021, Amryt announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire Chiasma, Inc. (Nasdaq: CHMA) in an all-stock combination. Under the terms of the transaction, each share of Chiasma common stock issued and outstanding prior to the consummation of the transaction was exchanged for 0.396 Amryt ADSs, each representing five Amryt ordinary shares.
On August 5, 2021, Amryt completed the acquisition of Chiasma, Inc. and, in conjunction with the completion, Amryt allotted and issued a total of 127,733,680 ordinary shares as consideration for the acquisition. Following the completion, shareholdings in Chiasma were rounded in being converted to Amryt shares using the exchange ratio of 0.396. Roundings in converting Chiasma shareholdings to Amryt shares were finalized in August 2021 and resulted in an additional 7,015 ordinary shares being allotted and issued by Amryt as consideration for the acquisition. In total, these ordinary shares were issued to the former Chiasma Shareholders in the form of 25,548,139 ADSs at US
On August 5, 2021, Chiasma had outstanding equity awards that were held by Chiasma employees. The fair value of these awards transferred to Amryt on acquisition were measured in accordance with IFRS 2. The portion of the value of the equity transferred to Amryt attributable to pre-combination service is included in the consideration at the date of acquisition and this amounted to US
On August 5, 2021, the Group repaid US
The combined company will be a global leader in rare and orphan diseases with four on-market commercial products, a global commercial and operational footprint and a significant development pipeline of therapies with the financial flexibility to execute its growth plans.

Acquisition of Aegerion Pharmaceuticals
On May 20, 2019, Amryt entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (as subsequently amended on June 12, 2019) and Plan Funding Agreement pursuant to which, among other matters, Amryt agreed to the acquisition of Aegerion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (‘‘Aegerion’’, subsequently renamed as Amryt Pharmaceuticals Inc.), a former wholly-owned subsidiary of Novelion Therapeutics Inc. (‘‘Novelion’’). On May 20, 2019, Aegerion and its U.S. subsidiary, Aegerion Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc., filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code in the Bankruptcy Court. On September 24, 2019, Amryt completed the acquisition of Aegerion. Amryt acquired Aegerion upon its emergence from bankruptcy in an exchange for ordinary shares and zero cost warrants in Amryt. Amryt issued 85,092,423 effective shares at US
As part of the acquisition of Aegerion, it was agreed, for certain Aegerion creditors who wished to restrict their percentage share interest in Amryt’s issued share capital, to issue to the relevant Aegerion creditor, as an alternative to Amryt’s ordinary shares, an equivalent number of new zero cost warrants to subscribe for Amryt’s ordinary shares to be constituted on the terms of the zero cost warrant. As at June 30, 2022, no zero cost warrants were remaining.
Contingent Value Rights
Related to the transaction, Amryt issued Contingent Value Rights (‘‘CVRs’’) pursuant to which up to US
The terms of the CVRs are as follows:
- The total CVR payable is up to US
$85,000,000 - This is divided into three milestones which are related to the success of Oleogel-S10 (the Group’s lead development asset)
- FDA approval
- US
$35,000,000 upon FDA approval 100% of the amount due if approval is obtained before December 31, 2021, with a sliding scale on a linear basis to zero if before July 1, 2022. The timeline for this milestone has now passed and, therefore, will not be paid.
- US
- EMA approval
- US
$15,000,000 upon EMA approval 100% of the amount due if approval is obtained before December 31, 2021, with a sliding scale on a linear basis to zero if before July 1, 2022
- US
- Revenue targets
- US
$35,000,000 upon Oleogel-S10 revenues exceeding US$75,000,000 in any 12-month period prior to June 30, 2024
- US
- Payment can at the Board’s discretion be in the form of either:
- 120-day loan notes (effectively cash), or
- Shares valued using the 30 day / 45-day VWAP.
The CVRs were contingent on the successful completion of the acquisition and, accordingly, have been based on fair value as at September 24, 2019. The CVRs have been classified as a financial liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Given that CVRs were issued to legacy Amryt shareholders in their capacity as owners of the identified acquirer as opposed to the seller in the transaction, management concluded that the most appropriate classification would be to recognize the CVR as a distribution on consolidation instead of goodwill.
Following the EMA approval of Filsuvez (Oleogel S-10) during the period ended June 30, 2022, the EMA CVRs issued to those Amryt shareholders and option holders who held Amryt shares or options prior to the acquisition of Aegerion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“CVR Holders”) became payable. Amryt elected to issue Loan Notes that will be redeemed in full in September 2022 to the holders of the CVRs. The total amount payable to CVR Holders is US
Measurement of Contingent Value Rights
As at June 30, 2022, the carrying value of the Contingent Value Rights liability was US$12,889,000 (December 31, 2021: US$19,892,000). As the EMA approval milestone has been triggered and the FDA approval will not be achieved in time for the FDA approval milestone to be triggered, the Contingent Value Rights liability relates to the Revenue target milestones and the related expected discounted cash flows. The value of this potential payout was calculated using the probability-weighted expected returns method. Using this method, the potential payment amounts were multiplied by the probability of achievement and discounted to present value. The probability adjusted present values took into account published orphan drug research data and statistics which were adjusted by management to reflect the specific circumstances applicable to the type of product acquired in the Amryt GmbH transaction. The probability chance of success is based on management’s expertise and experience for orphan drugs and takes into account the unique circumstances applying to approval process of this product. The EMA approval probability was set at
Amryt reviews the expected cash flows on a regular basis as the discount on initial recognition is being unwound as financing expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss over the life of the obligation. It is reviewed on a quarterly basis and the appropriate finance charge or gain is booked in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss on a quarterly basis.
The total non-cash gain recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, is US$1,967,000 and US
Acquisition of Amryt GmbH (previously ‘‘Birken’’)
Amryt DAC signed a conditional share purchase agreement to acquire Amryt GmbH on October 16, 2015 (‘‘Amryt GmbH SPA’’). The Amryt GmbH SPA was completed on April 18, 2016, with Amryt DAC acquiring the entire issued share capital of Amryt GmbH. The consideration included contingent consideration comprising milestone payments and sales royalties as follows:
- Milestone payments of:
€10,000,000 on receipt of marketing approval by the EMA or FDA of a pharmaceutical product containing Betulin as its API for the treatment of EB. Following EMA approval in 2022, this milestone was paid in July 2022;€10,000,000 once net ex-factory sales/net revenue of Oleogel S-10 first exceed€50,000,000 in any calendar year;€15,000,000 once net ex-factory sales/ net revenue of Oleogel S-10 first exceed€100,000,000 in any calendar year;
- Cash consideration of
€150,000 , due and paid on the completion date (April 18, 2016); and - Royalties of
9% on sales of Oleogel-S10 products for 10 years from first commercial sale.
Fair Value Measurement of Contingent Consideration
As at June 30, 2022, the fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be US$52,434,000 (December 31, 2021: US$61,221,000). The EMA or FDA marketing approval milestone payment was triggered following the EMA approval of Filsuvez® in 2022 and the liability of

Where a loss has occurred, basic and diluted LPS are the same because the outstanding share options and warrants are anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted LPS equals the basic LPS. The share options, RSUs, PSUs and warrants outstanding as at June 30, 2022, totaled 55,085,434 (June 30, 2021: 36,271,387) and are potentially dilutive.

Financial instruments evaluated at fair value can be classified according to the following valuation hierarchy, which reflects the extent to which the fair value is observable:
- Level 1: fair value evaluations using prices listed on active markets (not adjusted) of identical assets or liabilities.
- Level 2: fair value evaluations using input data for the asset or liability that are either directly observable (as prices) or indirectly observable (derived from prices), but which do not constitute listed prices pursuant to Level 1.
- Level 3: fair value evaluations using input data for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable input data).
The contingent consideration has been valued using Level 3. The contingent consideration comprises:
- Contingent consideration relating to the acquisition of Amryt GmbH (see Note 5, Business combinations and asset acquisitions) that was measured at US$52,434,000 as at June 30, 2022 (December 31, 2021: US$61,221,000). The fair value comprises royalty payments which was determined using probability weighted revenue forecasts and the fair value of the milestones payments which was determined using probability adjusted present values. It also included a revision to the discount rate used, and revenue and costs forecasts have been amended to reflect management’s current expectations.
Impact of key unobservable input data on the contingent consideration:
- An increase of
10% in estimated revenue forecasts would result in an increase to the fair value of US$3,174,000. A decrease would have the opposite effect. - A
5% increase in the discount factor used would result in a decrease to the fair value of US$7,276,000. A decrease of5% would result in an increase to the fair value of US$9,493,000. - A six-month delay in the launch date for Oleogel-S10 would result in a decrease to the fair value of US$4,141,000.
- An increase of
20% in the probability of success with the FDA approval would result in a decrease to the fair value of US$12,628,000.
