Insights

The reported financial results from BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. demonstrate a significant year-over-year growth in revenues, with a notable increase in GAAP and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS). The surge in VOXZOGO net revenues, particularly in Q4'23, indicates a robust market demand, further bolstered by the FDA's recent approval for an expanded patient demographic. This is a pivotal factor for investors, as it suggests a strong revenue trajectory for the product, which could lead to sustained growth for the company.

Furthermore, the company's 2024 financial outlook projects double-digit revenue growth and an acceleration of Non-GAAP EPS, which could signal a healthy financial position and operational efficiency. However, it is crucial to scrutinize the anticipated Non-GAAP operating margin expansion, as it reflects the company's expectation to manage costs effectively while scaling operations. Investors should monitor the company's ability to maintain or improve these margins, as they are indicative of BioMarin's operational success and potential for profit growth.

It is also important to note the decrease in KUVAN net product revenues, which could be attributed to the loss of market exclusivity and subsequent generic competition. This aspect of the report highlights the importance of product lifecycle management and the potential impact of patent cliffs on pharmaceutical companies' revenue streams.

BioMarin's financial success is closely tied to its strategic focus on rare diseases, with VOXZOGO's sales performance being a testament to the company's successful market penetration and the importance of FDA approvals in driving prescription volumes. The increased uptake of VOXZOGO following its approval for a younger patient population underscores the significance of regulatory milestones in the biopharmaceutical industry. This expanded indication could potentially lead to a longer duration of therapy per patient, contributing to the sustainability of sales growth.

From a research and development (R&D) perspective, the company's focus on prioritizing the most impactful R&D candidates is a strategic approach to maximize the return on investment in their pipeline. The planned pivotal studies for idiopathic short stature and other genetic conditions indicate BioMarin's commitment to expanding its portfolio and addressing unmet medical needs, which could have long-term implications for the company's growth and market position.

The pharmaceutical sector and particularly the rare disease market, is characterized by high barriers to entry due to the complexity of drug development and the need for specialized knowledge. BioMarin's strong performance in this niche market, highlighted by the impressive growth of VOXZOGO, positions the company competitively. The focus on operational excellence and cost optimization is a strategic move in response to the market's demand for both innovation and cost-effectiveness. Investors should consider the potential for BioMarin to leverage its current success into further market expansion, especially in light of its strategic priorities for 2024.

The company's plans to establish the ROCTAVIAN opportunity and expand access to this treatment for severe hemophilia A could represent another growth avenue. The impact of such initiatives on the stock market will largely depend on the company's ability to navigate the complex reimbursement landscape and the competitive dynamics within the hemophilia treatment space.

Total FY'23 Revenues of $2.42 Billion (+15% Y/Y and +20% Y/Y at Constant Currency); GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share of $0.87 (+16% Y/Y) and Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share of $2.08 (+36% Y/Y)

VOXZOGO® Net Revenues of $146 Million in Q4'23 (+118% Q/Q) and $470 Million for FY'23 (+178% Y/Y)

BioMarin's 2024 Financial Outlook Reflects Anticipated Double-digit Total Revenue Growth, Significant Non-GAAP Operating Margin Expansion, and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share Growing Faster than Revenues

Conference Call and Webcast Scheduled Today at 4:30 p.m. ET

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Feb. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (NASDAQ: BMRN) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

"Strong financial results in 2023 were driven by global demand for VOXZOGO, the only approved treatment for children with achondroplasia, and contributions from our established enzyme products. VOXZOGO revenues grew 18% over the prior quarter and were positively impacted by an increase in prescriptions for children in the United States under the age of 5, following the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) October approval of VOXZOGO for children of all ages with open growth plates," said Alexander Hardy, President and Chief Executive Officer of BioMarin. "Looking ahead in 2024, our full-year financial guidance reflects our focus on value creation through achievement of four strategic priorities outlined earlier this year. We intend to maximize the VOXZOGO opportunity, continue to build-out global access channels for ROCTAVIAN, judiciously prioritize the most potentially impactful R&D candidates, and drive operational excellence and cost optimization with the goal of delivering growth, efficiency and profitability."

Financial Highlights:

  • Total Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2023 were $646.2 million, an increase of 20% compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in Total Revenues was primarily attributed to higher VOXZOGO sales volume driven by new patients initiating therapy across all regions, which included a significant number of new patient starts in the U.S. for children under the age of 5 years. The increase was also due to higher VIMIZIM product revenues primarily driven by the timing of large government orders. This was partially offset by lower KUVAN product revenues attributed to continued generic competition as a result of the loss of market exclusivity.
  • GAAP Net Income increased by $20.6 million to $20.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross profit driven by increased revenues and reduced severance costs associated with the company's organizational redesign announced in the fourth quarter of 2022. This was partially offset by higher spend in research and development (R&D) programs to support both early-stage research and clinical activities and higher selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses related to an asset impairment charge, corporate governance and leadership transition costs, costs to support the commercial launch of ROCTAVIAN as well as a decrease in income tax benefits and an investment loss.
  • Non-GAAP Income increased by $31.8 million to $94.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increased Non-GAAP Income was primarily due to higher gross profit driven by increased revenues, partially offset by higher R&D expenses for the same reasons noted above, higher SG&A expenses related to corporate governance and leadership transitions and ROCTAVIAN commercial launch costs as well as an increase in income tax expense.

2024 Strategic Priorities

In January, BioMarin management outlined key priorities focused on value creation through accelerating growth, optimizing efficiencies and driving operational excellence. For 2024, the company plans to provide material updates across the business, both scientific and financial, according to these strategic priorities:

Accelerate and maximize the VOXZOGO opportunity

  • In the fourth quarter, the FDA approved VOXZOGO for children under 5 years of age. Approximately 70% of new U.S. treatment starts in the fourth quarter were from that age group following the age label expansion approval in October 2023. With VOXZOGO now approved for younger children in key large markets, product expansion is expected to accelerate across younger age groups throughout 2024.
  • The number of children with achondroplasia being treated with VOXZOGO increased 128% in 2023 compared to the end of 2022.  As of December 31, 2023, 2,613 children with achondroplasia were being treated with VOXZOGO across 41 active markets, compared to 1,150 children on therapy at the end of 2022. 
  • In the fourth quarter, BioMarin began the pivotal program with VOXZOGO for the treatment of children with hypochondroplasia. The 6-month run-in study will be followed by the 52-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase of the 80-participant clinical trial, with the treatment study expected to begin mid-2024.
  • BioMarin is engaging global health authorities in the first half of this year regarding development programs in idiopathic short stature and multiple genetic short stature pathway conditions, with plans to begin pivotal studies later this year.

Establish ROCTAVIAN opportunity

  • As an important new treatment option for those with severe hemophilia A, BioMarin expects continued progress increasing ROCTAVIAN access and patients treated in 2024.  This year, BioMarin's commercial team will continue to focus on key elements critical to supporting the uptake of ROCTAVIAN including, clinical eligibility, site readiness and patient and physician education.
  • In January, the Italian Medicines Agency approved reimbursement for ROCTAVIAN in severe hemophilia A.
  • In 2023, three patients were treated with ROCTAVIAN, two in Germany and one in the U.S.

Focus R&D on the most productive assets

  • During the first quarter of 2024, BioMarin began a strategic portfolio review of all R&D programs to determine which meet the criteria for further investment and advancement. A complete update on prioritized R&D assets, those with the highest potential patient impact and highest potential value creation for shareholders, will be communicated at our Investor Day later in 2024.

Accelerate EPS growth and expand margins

  • BioMarin's 2024 financial outlook reflects anticipated year-over-year double-digit Total Revenue growth, reduced operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, acceleration of Non-GAAP Operating Margin expansion and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share growing faster than revenue.

2024 Full-Year Financial Guidance

BioMarin does not provide guidance for GAAP reported financial measures (other than revenue) or a reconciliation of forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP reported financial measures because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the financial impact of changes resulting from our strategic portfolio and business operating model reviews; potential future asset impairments; gains and losses on investments; and other unusual gains and losses without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period. As such, any reconciliations provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

Non-GAAP Information

The results presented in this press release include both GAAP information and Non-GAAP information. Non-GAAP Income is defined by the company as GAAP Net Income (Loss) excluding amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, contingent consideration expense, and, in certain periods, certain other specified items, as detailed below when applicable. Non-GAAP Operating Margin percentage is defined by the company as GAAP Income from Operations, excluding amortization of intangible assets, stock based compensation expense, contingent consideration expense, and, in certain periods, certain other specified items, divided by Total Revenues. The company also includes a Non-GAAP adjustment for the estimated tax impact of the reconciling items. Non-GAAP Diluted EPS is defined by the company as Non-GAAP Income divided by Non-GAAP diluted shares outstanding. The company's presentation of percentage changes in total revenues at constant currency rates, which is computed using current period local currency sales at the prior period's foreign exchange rates, is also a Non-GAAP financial measure. This measure provides information about growth (or declines) in the company's total revenue as if foreign currency exchange rates had not changed between the prior period and the current period.

BioMarin regularly uses both GAAP and Non-GAAP results and expectations internally to assess its financial operating performance and evaluate key business decisions related to its principal business activities: the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing and sale of innovative biologic therapies. Because Non-GAAP Income, Non-GAAP Operating Margin percentage, Non-GAAP Diluted EPS, Non-GAAP Diluted Shares and constant currency are important internal measurements for BioMarin, the company believes that providing this information in conjunction with BioMarin's GAAP information enhances investors' and analysts' ability to meaningfully compare the company's results from period to period and to its forward-looking guidance, and to identify operating trends in the company's principal business. BioMarin also uses Non-GAAP Income internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and to make operating decisions, and compensation of executives is based in part on this measure.

Non-GAAP Income and its components are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors should note that the Non-GAAP information is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and does not reflect all of the amounts associated with the company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors should also note that these Non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. In addition, from time to time in the future there may be other items that the company may exclude for purposes of its Non-GAAP financial measures; likewise, the company may in the future cease to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its Non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions, the Non-GAAP financial measure as used by BioMarin in this press release and the accompanying tables may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following tables present the reconciliation of GAAP reported to Non-GAAP adjusted financial information:
