Key Business Updates

BRUKINSA® (zanubrutinib) is an orally available, small molecule inhibitor of BTK designed to deliver complete and sustained inhibition of the BTK protein by optimizing bioavailability, half-life, and selectivity. With differentiated pharmacokinetics compared with other approved BTK inhibitors, BRUKINSA has been demonstrated to inhibit the proliferation of malignant B cells within a number of disease-relevant tissues. BRUKINSA has the broadest label globally of any BTK inhibitor and is the only BTK inhibitor to provide the flexibility of once or twice daily dosing. The global BRUKINSA clinical development program includes about 6,000 patients enrolled in 30 countries and regions across more than 35 trials. BRUKINSA is approved in more than 70 markets, and more than 100,000 patients have been treated globally.

  • U.S. sales of BRUKINSA totaled $504 million in the third quarter of 2024, representing growth of 87% over the prior-year period, with more than 60% of the quarter over quarter demand growth coming from expanded use in CLL as BRUKINSA continued to gain share in CLL new patient starts; BRUKINSA sales in Europe totaled $97 million in the third quarter of 2024, representing growth of 217%, driven by increased market share across all major markets, including Germany, Italy, Spain, France and the UK;
  • Five-year follow-up results from cohort 1 of the Phase 3 SEQUOIA study showed sustained progression-free survival (PFS) benefit (54-month PFS rate of 80%) with BRUKINSA in patients with treatment-naïve (TN) CLL or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), with no new safety signals observed; detailed data will be presented at the annual American Society of Hematology (ASH) 2024 conference; and
  • Five-year follow-up data of BOVen (zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, venetoclax) study in TN CLL demonstrates frequent unmeasurable minimal residual disease (uMRD) in peripheral blood (96%) and bone marrow (92%), and uMRD was durable with a median MRD-free survival of 34 months; detailed data will be presented at the ASH 2024 conference.

TEVIMBRA® (tislelizumab) is a uniquely designed humanized immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody with high affinity and binding specificity against PD-1; it is designed to minimize binding to Fc-gamma (Fcγ) receptors on macrophages, helping to aid the body’s immune cells to detect and fight tumors. TEVIMBRA is the foundational asset of BeiGene’s solid tumor portfolio and has shown potential across multiple tumor types and disease settings. The global TEVIMBRA clinical development program includes almost 14,000 patients enrolled to date in 34 counties and regions across 66 trials, including 20 registration-enabling studies. TEVIMBRA is approved in 42 countries and regions, and more than 1.3 million patients have been treated globally.

  • Sales of tislelizumab totaled $163 million in the third quarter of 2024, representing growth of 13% compared to the prior-year period;
  • Announced commercial availability in the U.S. for second-line esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and in the first European countries for second-line ESCC and first- and second-line non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC);
  • Received positive opinions from the European Medicines Agency Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) as a first-line treatment for advanced/metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer and ESCC;
  • Received China National Medical Products Administration approval for neo-adjuvant/adjuvant NSCLC; and
  • Further expanded global footprint with new approvals in Brazil (second-line NSCLC, second-line ESCC), Singapore (first- and second-line NSCLC, second-line ESCC), Thailand (first- and second-line NSCLC, first- and second-line ESCC and first-line gastric cancer) and Israel (second-line ESCC).

Key Pipeline Highlights

BeiGene’s portfolio strategy emphasizes rapid generation of early-stage clinical proof-of-concept data enabled by its speed- and cost-advantaged (“Fast to Proof of Concept”) approach to global clinical operations. The Company’s in-house clinical operations team of 3,600 colleagues conducts trials across five continents, ensuring rigorous data quality through collaborations with regulators and investigators in over 45 countries. This strategic approach maximizes resources by channeling data-gated investments into the most promising clinically differentiated candidates quickly and de-prioritizing others. With one of the largest oncology research teams in the industry, BeiGene has demonstrated strengths in translational small molecule and biologics discovery, including three platform technologies: multi-specific antibodies, chimeric degradation activation compounds (CDACs), and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). For NMEs entering the clinic, BeiGene has industry leading preclinical, dose escalation cohort and dose escalation to dose expansion timings. Two examples of the Company’s speed advantage resulting from its internal innovation at scale:

  • CDK4i entered the clinic in December 2023; 6.4 weeks on average for dose-escalation cohorts with more than 100 patients;
  • B7H4 ADC entered the clinic in April 2024; 6.6 weeks on average for dose-escalation cohorts with 30 patients enrolled.

Hematology

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $1,002 million, compared to $781 million in the same period of 2023, driven primarily by growth in BRUKINSA product sales in the U.S. and Europe of 87% and 217% respectively. The reacquisition of the full global commercial rights to ociperlimab and TEVIMBRA in the third quarter of 2023 resulted in the recognition of the remaining deferred revenues from the former Novartis collaborations, which contributed $183 million of the total revenue in the prior year period.

Product Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $993 million, compared to $595 million in the same period of 2023, representing an increase of 67%. The increase in product revenue was primarily attributable to increased sales of BRUKINSA. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the U.S. was the Company’s largest market, with product revenue of $504 million, compared to $270 million in the prior year period. In addition to BRUKINSA revenue growth, product revenues were positively impacted by growth from in-licensed products from Amgen and tislelizumab.

Gross Margin as a percentage of global product revenue for the third quarter of 2024 was 83%, compared to 84% in the prior-year period on a GAAP basis and 85%, compared to 84% in the prior-year period on an adjusted basis. The GAAP gross margin percentage decrease compared to the prior-year period was the result of accelerated depreciation expense of $17 million resulting from the move to more efficient, larger scale production lines for tislelizumab, and with a similar amount to be incurred in the fourth quarter related to this move. The adjusted gross margin percentage, which does not include the accelerated depreciation, increased primarily due to proportionally higher sales mix of global BRUKINSA compared to other products in the portfolio.

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses increased for the third quarter of 2024 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis, primarily due to advancing preclinical programs into the clinic and early clinical programs into late stage. Upfront fees and milestone payments related to in-process R&D for in-licensed assets totaled $5 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $15 million in the prior-year period. Included within GAAP research and development expense for the third quarter of 2024 is $24.9 million of accelerated depreciation expense related to the move of clinical production to larger, more efficient production lines with approximately $2.0 million remaining to be incurred in the fourth quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses increased for the third quarter of 2024 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis due to continued investment to support the global commercial launch of BRUKINSA, primarily in the U.S. and Europe. SG&A expenses as a percentage of product sales were 46% for the third quarter of 2024 compared to 61% in the prior year period.

GAAP Income (Loss) from Operations in the third quarter of 2024 operating loss decreased 10% compared to the prior-year-period primarily due to increased operating leverage. On an adjusted basis, we generated operating income of $66 million, an increase of $82 million from the prior year period. GAAP and adjusted loss from operations in the prior year period benefited from the recognition of the remaining deferred revenues from the Novartis collaboration agreements.

GAAP Net Loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $121 million, compared to net income of $215 million in the prior-year period. Net income in the prior year period benefited from the non-operating gain of $363 million (pre and after-tax) related to the BMS arbitration settlement and the recognition of the remaining deferred revenues from the Novartis collaboration agreements. Net loss in the period continued to improve sequentially, as our product revenue growth and management of expenses is driving increased operating leverage.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, net loss per basic ordinary share was $(0.09) and net loss per basic American Depositary Share (ADS) was $(1.15), compared to net income per basic ordinary share of $0.16 and net income per basic ADS of $2.06 in the prior-year period.

Cash Provided by Operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $188 million, an increase of $267 million over the prior-year period. The improvement in operating cash flows in the period was primarily driven by improved non-GAAP operating income and favorability in the period from working capital seasonality.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

BeiGene provides certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Operating Expenses and Adjusted Operating Loss and certain other non-GAAP income statement line items, each of which include adjustments to GAAP figures. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information on BeiGene’s operating performance. Adjustments to BeiGene’s GAAP figures exclude, as applicable, non-cash items such as share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization. Certain other special items or substantive events may also be included in the non-GAAP adjustments periodically when their magnitude is significant within the periods incurred. BeiGene maintains an established non-GAAP policy that guides the determination of what costs will be excluded in non-GAAP financial measures and the related protocols, controls and approval with respect to the use of such measures. BeiGene believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP figures, can enhance an overall understanding of BeiGene’s operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures are included with the intent of providing investors with a more complete understanding of the Company’s historical and expected financial results and trends and to facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to projected information. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the indicators BeiGene’s management uses for planning and forecasting purposes and measuring the Company’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
