Product Sales, net
Anthrax vaccines
For Q2 2022, revenues from Anthrax vaccines increased $44.1 million as compared to Q2 2021. The increase is largely driven by timing of deliveries to the U.S. government (USG), specifically the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS). The Company received an AV7909 contract modification in September 2021 valued at approximately $399.0 million to deliver additional AV7909 doses through March 2023.

Nasal naloxone products
For Q2 2022, revenues from nasal naloxone products decreased $4.6 million as compared to Q2 2021. The decrease was driven by a reduction in commercial retail sales following the launch of a generic in December 2021. This decrease was offset by strong growth in unit sales of branded NARCAN® (naloxone HCl) Nasal Spray to public interest customers in the U.S. and customers in Canada, as well as from sales of the authorized generic product licensed to Sandoz, which launched in December 2021.

Other (4)
For Q2 2022, revenues from other product sales increased $16.5 million as compared to Q2 2021. The increase was primarily due to sales of two of the Company's Government/Medical Countermeasure (MCM) products: i) VIGIV [Vaccinia Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human)], driven by timing of deliveries to the SNS; and ii) BAT® [Botulism Antitoxin Heptavalent (A, B, C, D, E, F, G) - (Equine)] , driven by timing of deliveries to international customers.

Contract Development and Manufacturing
CDMO Services
For Q2 2022, revenues from contract development and manufacturing services decreased $100.9 million as compared to Q2 2021. This decrease is largely due to lower combined revenues of $82.0 million from AstraZeneca and Janssen reflecting the impact of reduced production activities at the Bayview facility as a result of a cessation of manufacturing activities under the AstraZeneca contract which occurred in 2021, and a pause and eventual cessation of manufacturing activities under the Janssen contract which began in Q1 2022. Additionally for Q2 2022, the Company reversed $8.3 million of previously recognized revenue under the Janssen contract to align cumulative revenue recognized with cumulative cash collections. The decrease also reflects reduced production at the Camden facility in the quarter driven by additional investments in strengthening quality and compliance that restricted the Company’s ability to optimally utilize the existing capacity at the site. These declines in revenues were offset by an increase in contracted manufacturing activities at the Winnipeg facility.

CDMO Leases
For Q2 2022, revenues from contract development and manufacturing leases decreased $91.8 million as compared to Q2 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the completion of the Company's public-private partnership with BARDA in November 2021, which contributed $70.4 million in Q2 2021 and a $21.9 million decrease in lease revenues related to the Janssen contract. Included in the $21.9 million decrease, the Company reversed $5.0 million of previously recognized revenue under the Janssen contract to align cumulative revenue recognized with cumulative cash collections.

Contracts and Grants
For Q2 2022, revenues from contracts and grants decreased $18.1 million as compared to Q2 2021. The decrease is primarily due to lower revenue from BARDA as a result of the completion of the Center for Innovation and Advanced Development and Manufacturing (CIADM) agreement, which occurred in November 2021, as well as decreases in development activities associated with various other externally funded R&D projects, most notably the AV7909 program, which has now completed its clinical phase and for which a BLA is currently under review by the FDA with an anticipated goal date for completion in April 2023.

Operating Expenses

($ in millions)Q2 2022Q2 2021% Change
Cost of product sales$91.0 $81.2 12%
Cost of CDMO 78.8  146.6 (46)%

Amortization of intangible assets 14.0  15.1 (7)%
Total operating expenses$314.7 $383.0  
        

Cost of Product Sales
For Q2 2022, cost of product sales increased $9.8 million as compared to Q2 2021. The increase is primarily due to the higher volume of product sales.

Cost of CDMO
For Q2 2022, cost of CDMO decreased $67.8 million as compared to Q2 2021. The decrease is primarily due to reduced production activities across our CDMO network in Q2 2022 compared to Q2 2021 resulting in decreased raw materials consumption, as well as a $41.5 million inventory write-off in Q2 2021. These decreases were partially offset by increased costs at the Company's Winnipeg facility due to an increase in manufacturing activities and Camden facility due to additional investments in quality enhancement and improvement initiatives.

Research and Development
For Q2 2022, research and development expenses were consistent with Q2 2021 reflecting the Company's continued commitment to investment in important pipeline programs addressing additional public health preparedness and response areas of focus.

Selling, General and Administrative
For Q2 2022, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $10.1 million due to reduced professional services and marketing costs partially offset by higher compensation costs.

Additional Financial Information

Segment Information
During Q1 2022, the Company began assessing its operating performance by focusing on two reportable segments: 1) a products segment (Products) consisting of the MCM and Commercial products business lines; and 2) a services segment (Services) consisting of the CDMO services business line. The Company evaluates the performance of these reportable segments based on revenue and adjusted gross margin. Segment revenue includes external customer sales but does not include inter-segment services. The Company does not allocate contracts and grants, R&D, SG&A, amortization of intangible assets, interest and other income (expense) or taxes to its evaluation of the performance of these segments.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Product gross margin increased $46.2 million and $117.7 million, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Product adjusted gross margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 increased $45.5 million and $117.8 million, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The increases in Product gross margin and Product adjusted gross margin are primarily due to increased volumes and changes in product mix.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Services gross margin and Services adjusted gross margin decreased $124.9 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Services gross margin and Services adjusted gross margin decreased $276.8 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decreases in 2022 are primarily due to the decline in revenue at the Bayview facility as a result of the completion of the Company's arrangement with BARDA, the pause in manufacturing activities for improvement and modifications, and an increase in professional services costs.

As of June 30, 2022, the number of CDMO customers declined by one versus the prior reported period of March 31, 2022. The mix of customers for the Company's CDMO services remains largely a combination of small and medium sized biopharmaceutical companies.

Assumptions

The Company's 2022 financial forecast takes into consideration the following assumptions.

2022 Product and Contract and Grant Revenues

  • Anthrax vaccines revenues are expected to continue at similar levels to 2021 under the terms of the Company's existing contract with BARDA.
  • ACAM2000®, (Smallpox (Vaccinia) Vaccine, Live) vaccine deliveries are expected to continue under the terms of the Company’s existing contract with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) at unit volume levels consistent with 2021 deliveries.
  • Nasal naloxone products revenues reflect the formation of a generic market and comprise revenues from a combination of NARCAN Nasal Spray and the authorized generic of NARCAN Nasal Spray, a product licensed to Sandoz and launched in late 2021 and one in which the Company retains a financial interest.
  • Other Products + Contracts and Grants revenues: 1) other products revenues reflect continued procurement of other products not highlighted on a standalone basis from various government customers under existing multi-year contracts; 2) contracts and grants revenues reflect continued funding of select development programs from various government and other non-dilutive sources.

CDMO

  • CDMO revenues are expected to re-baseline throughout the year as the Company transitions the business to a focus on non-COVID projects and on expanding its drug product capabilities as it progresses toward a higher level of capacity utilization principally at the Camden, Rockville and Winnipeg sites. CDMO revenues exclude further contribution from Janssen.

Other

  • Pipeline progress is expected across the R&D portfolio with the advancement of the CHIKV VLP Phase 3 clinical trials, the FDA acceptance of the Company's BLA filing for AV7909, and anticipated advancements of a number of early-stage programs.
  • Capital expenditures, net of reimbursement, are expected to be approximately 10% of total revenues at the midpoint, reflecting ongoing investments in capacity and capability expansions related to the CDMO business and the Company's R&D programs, and aligned with the average over the previous five-year period.

The updated forecasted ranges do not take into account the impact of the addition of TEMBEXA, the acquisition of which is expected to close in the third quarter of 2022.

Q3 2022 Total Revenues

The Company is also providing a forecast for Q3 2022 total revenues of $230 - $270 million.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

This press release contains financial measures (Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization), Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Product Gross Margin, Adjusted CDMO Gross Margin, Adjusted Revenues and Net Research and Development Expenses) that are considered “non-GAAP” financial measures under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s definition of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. For its non-GAAP measures, the Company adjusts for specified items that can be highly variable or difficult to predict, or reflect the non-cash impact of charges or accounting changes. As needed, such adjustments are tax effected utilizing the federal statutory tax rate for the U.S., except for changes in the fair value of contingent consideration as the vast majority is non-deductible for tax purposes. The Company views these non-GAAP financial measures as a means to facilitate management’s financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of the Company’s historical operating results and comparison to competitors’ operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measure, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income (Loss)," "Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA," "Reconciliation of Gross Margin and Adjusted Gross Margin" and "Reconciliation of Net Research and Development Expenses" included at the end of this release.

The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depend upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company’s reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety.
