Rhea-AI Summary

Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) reported Q2 2024 financial results with a 36% revenue increase to $11.30 billion, driven by strong sales of Mounjaro, Zepbound, and Verzenio.

Financial Analyst

Lilly's Q2 2024 results are extremely positive, showcasing robust growth across key metrics. Revenue increased 36% year-over-year to $11.3 billion, driven by strong performances from Mounjaro, Zepbound and Verzenio. Notably, EPS grew 68% to $3.28 on a reported basis and 86% to $3.92 on a non-GAAP basis.

The $3 billion increase in full-year revenue guidance to $45.4-$46.6 billion is particularly impressive, reflecting confidence in continued strong performance. This, coupled with the significant EPS guidance raise, indicates Lilly's ability to translate top-line growth into bottom-line results efficiently.

Investors should note the strong momentum in Lilly's diabetes and obesity franchise, with Mounjaro revenue surging to $3.1 billion. The rapid uptake of Zepbound, generating $1.2 billion in its second full quarter, demonstrates Lilly's dominance in the GLP-1 market.

Medical Research Analyst

Lilly's pipeline progress is noteworthy, with several key developments enhancing its long-term growth prospects. The approval of Kisunla for Alzheimer's disease marks a significant milestone, potentially opening up a massive market opportunity. The submission of tirzepatide for obstructive sleep apnea and obesity in both the U.S. and EU expands its potential indications.

The positive topline results from the Phase 3 trial of tirzepatide in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and obesity are particularly intriguing. This could position tirzepatide as a multi-indication blockbuster, addressing several high-prevalence conditions.

The acquisition of Morphic Holding to expand Lilly's immunology pipeline demonstrates a commitment to long-term growth beyond its current focus areas. However, investors should monitor the integration process and development timelines for these new assets.

Market Research Analyst

Lilly's market position in the diabetes and obesity space appears to be strengthening rapidly. The company's ability to capture market share with Mounjaro and Zepbound, despite competition, is impressive. The high teens to mid-20s percent channel stocking for these products in the U.S. suggests strong demand and improved supply chain management.

However, investors should note the decline in Trulicity sales, which decreased 31% due to competitive pressures and supply constraints. This highlights the importance of Lilly's newer products in offsetting mature product declines.

The $5.3 billion manufacturing investment for API production of tirzepatide and pipeline medicines is a strategic move to support future growth. This significant capital expenditure underscores Lilly's confidence in sustained demand for its incretin portfolio and pipeline assets.

• Revenue in Q2 2024 increased 36%, driven by Mounjaro, Zepbound and Verzenio. When excluding $579.0 million of revenue from the sale of rights for Baqsimi in Q2 2023, revenue in Q2 2024 increased 46%. Excluding the sale of rights for Baqsimi, non-incretin revenue increased 17% worldwide and 25% in the U.S.
• Q2 2024 EPS increased 68% to $3.28 on a reported basis and increased 86% to $3.92 on a non-GAAP basis, both inclusive of $0.14 of acquired IPR&D charges.
• 2024 full-year revenue guidance raised by $3 billion; reported EPS guidance raised $2.05 to the range of $15.10 to $15.60, and non-GAAP EPS guidance raised $2.60 to the range of $16.10 to $16.60.
• Pipeline progress included approval of Kisunla in the U.S. for Alzheimer's disease and Jaypirca in Japan for relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma. Additional progress included submission of tirzepatide in the U.S. and EU for obstructive sleep apnea and obesity, and positive topline results from the Phase 3 trial evaluating tirzepatide for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and obesity.

Second-Quarter Reported Results
In Q2 2024, worldwide revenue was $11.30 billion, an increase of 36% compared with Q2 2023, driven by a 27% increase in volume and a 10% increase due to higher realized prices, partially offset by a 1% decrease from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates. The volume increase was primarily driven by growth from Mounjaro^®, Zepbound^®, Verzenio^®, Taltz^® and Jardiance^®, partially offset by the sale of rights for Baqsimi^® in Q2 2023 and declines in Trulicity^®. Excluding $579.0 million of revenue from the sale of rights for Baqsimi in Q2 2023, revenue in Q2 2024 increased by 46%, and worldwide volume increased by 37%. Excluding the sale of rights for Baqsimi, non-incretin revenue increased 17% worldwide and 25% in the U.S.

Strong performance by the company's incretin medicines continued, as production increases resulted in improved channel dynamics and stocking levels in the U.S., contributing to sales growth during the quarter. While supply and demand have come into better balance, expected increases in demand may result in periodic supply tightness for certain presentations and dose levels. In the U.S., the company plans to launch Zepbound 2.5 mg and 5 mg single-dose vials in the coming weeks.

Higher realized prices were primarily driven by Mounjaro in the U.S., which saw net price positively impacted by access and savings card dynamics compared with Q2 2023. In the second half of 2024, these savings card dynamics should have a minimal impact on realized price comparisons to base periods, as the $25 non-covered benefit expired on June 30, 2023. New Products⁽ⁱ⁾ revenue grew by $3.46 billion to $4.46 billion in Q2 2024, led by Mounjaro and Zepbound. Growth Products⁽ⁱⁱ⁾ revenue increased 3% to $5.05 billion in Q2 2024 as growth led by Verzenio, Taltz, and Jardiance was largely offset by lower Trulicity sales.

(i) Lilly defines New Products as select products launched since 2022, which currently consist of Ebglyss, Jaypirca, Mounjaro, Omvoh and Zepbound.

(ii) Lilly defines Growth Products as select products launched prior to 2022, which currently consist of Cyramza, Emgality, Jardiance, Olumiant, Retevmo, Taltz, Trulicity, Tyvyt and Verzenio

Revenue in the U.S. increased 42% to $7.84 billion, driven by a 27% increase in volume and a 15% increase in realized prices. The increase in U.S. volume was driven by Zepbound, Mounjaro and Verzenio, partially offset by the sale of rights for Baqsimi in Q2 2023 and declines in Trulicity. The higher realized prices in the U.S. were primarily driven by Mounjaro. The company fulfilled the majority of prior incretin wholesaler backorders during Q2 2024, improving both wholesaler stocking levels and overall product availability for patients in the U.S. Q2 2024 Mounjaro and Zepbound sales in the U.S. were positively impacted by channel stocking that the company estimates totaled high teens to mid-20s as a percent of U.S. sales.

Revenue outside the U.S. increased 25% to $3.47 billion, driven by a 27% increase in volume, partially offset by a 3% decrease due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates. The increase in volume outside the U.S. was primarily driven by the launch of Mounjaro KwikPen^® in various markets.

Gross margin increased 40% to $9.13 billion in Q2 2024. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 80.8%, an increase of 2.5 percentage points. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by favorable product mix and higher realized prices, partially offset by higher production costs.

In Q2 2024, research and development expenses increased 15% to $2.71 billion, or 24% of revenue, driven by continued investments in the company's portfolio and its people.

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased 10% to $2.12 billion in Q2 2024, primarily driven by investments in the company's launches and its people.

In Q2 2024, the company recognized acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) charges of $154.3 million compared with $97.1 million in Q2 2023.

Asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges were $435.0 million in Q2 2024, which was related to anticipated litigation payments. There were no asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges in Q2 2023.

Other income (expense) was expense of $197.6 million in Q2 2024, compared to expense of $36.8 million in Q2 2023. The increase in expense was primarily driven by larger net losses on investments in equity securities in Q2 2024 and higher net interest expenses.

The effective tax rate was 15.6% in both Q2 2024 and Q2 2023. The Q2 2024 tax rate reflects a mix of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions, while the Q2 2023 rate reflects the impact of earnings from the sale of rights for Baqsimi.

In Q2 2024, net income and earnings per share (EPS) were $2.97 billion and $3.28, respectively, compared with net income of $1.76 billion and EPS of $1.95 in Q2 2023. EPS in Q2 2024 included $0.14 of acquired IPR&D charges compared with $0.09 in Q2 2023.

Second-Quarter Non-GAAP Measures
On a non-GAAP basis, Q2 2024 gross margin increased 40% to $9.27 billion. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 82.0%, an increase of 2.2 percentage points. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by favorable product mix and higher realized prices, partially offset by higher production costs.

The effective tax rate on a non-GAAP basis was 16.5% in Q2 2024 compared with 16.1% in Q2 2023. The Q2 2024 tax rate reflects a mix of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions, while the Q2 2023 rate reflects the impact of earnings from the sale of rights for Baqsimi.

On a non-GAAP basis, Q2 2024 net income and EPS were $3.54 billion and $3.92, respectively, compared with net income of $1.90 billion and EPS of $2.11 in Q2 2023. EPS in Q2 2024 included $0.14 of acquired IPR&D charges compared with $0.09 in Q2 2023.

Mounjaro
For Q2 2024, worldwide Mounjaro revenue was $3.09 billion compared with $979.7 million in Q2 2023. U.S. revenue was $2.41 billion compared with $915.7 million in Q2 2023, reflecting continued strong demand, improved channel dynamics, and higher realized prices due to savings card dynamics. In the second half of 2024, these savings card dynamics should have a minimal impact on realized price comparisons to base periods, as the $25 non-covered benefit expired on June 30, 2023. Revenue outside the U.S. increased to $677.2 million compared with $64.0 million in Q2 2023, primarily driven by volume associated with the launch of Mounjaro KwikPen in various markets.

Trulicity
For Q2 2024, worldwide Trulicity revenue decreased 31% compared with Q2 2023 to $1.25 billion. U.S. revenue decreased 36% to $876.7 million, driven by decreased sales volume primarily due to competitive dynamics and supply constraints, partially offset by improved wholesaler stocking levels on certain doses. Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 16% to $368.9 million, primarily driven by decreased volume. In addition to the factors affecting U.S. volume, international markets continue to be impacted by actions Lilly has taken to manage demand amid tight supply, including measures to minimize the impact on existing patients by communicating with healthcare practitioners to not start new patients on Trulicity.

Verzenio
For Q2 2024, worldwide Verzenio revenue increased 44% compared with Q2 2023 to $1.33 billion. U.S. revenue was $861.4 million, an increase of 46%, primarily driven by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $470.5 million, an increase of 39%, driven by increased demand, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

Zepbound
For Q2 2024, U.S. Zepbound revenue was $1.24 billion. Zepbound launched in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbidities in November 2023.

Jardiance
For Q2 2024, the company's worldwide Jardiance revenue increased 15% compared with Q2 2023 to $769.6 million. U.S. revenue was $428.9 million, an increase of 11%, driven by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $340.7 million, an increase of 21%, driven by increased volume.

Jardiance is part of the company's alliance with Boehringer Ingelheim. Lilly reports as revenue royalties received on net sales of Jardiance.

Taltz
For Q2 2024, worldwide Taltz revenue increased 17% compared with Q2 2023 to $824.7 million. U.S. revenue increased 14% to $539.4 million, driven by increased demand and, to a lesser extent, channel dynamics. Revenue outside the U.S. increased 23% to $285.3 million, driven by increased demand.

Humalog
For Q2 2024, worldwide Humalog revenue increased 43% compared with Q2 2023 to $631.6 million. U.S. revenue was $434.7 million, an increase of 89%, driven by higher realized prices primarily due to changes to estimates for rebates and discounts, segment mix and increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $196.9 million, a decrease of 7%, driven by decreased volume, partially offset by higher realized prices.

2024 Financial Guidance
2024 full-year revenue guidance increased by $3.0 billion to the range of $45.4 billion to $46.6 billion, primarily driven by the strong performance of Mounjaro and Zepbound, as well as the company's non-incretin medicines. Additionally, the company has improved clarity into the timing and pace of the company's production expansions and planned Mounjaro launches outside the U.S. In Q2 2024, the company achieved a number of supply-related milestones and has increased confidence regarding production expectations for the rest of the year.

The ratio of (Gross Margin - OPEX) / Revenue, where OPEX is defined as the sum of research and development expenses and marketing, selling and administrative expenses, is now expected to be in the range of 36% to 38% on a reported basis and 37% to 39% on a non-GAAP basis. Both ratios reflect the $3.0 billion increase in revenue guidance.

Guidance on a reported basis now includes asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges of $435 million to reflect the Q2 2024 charge, which was associated with anticipated litigation payments.

Other income (expense) guidance is now expected to be a range of ($525) to ($425) million of expense on a reported basis and ($400) to ($300) million of expense on a non-GAAP basis, both reflecting lower expected net interest expense. The reported guidance also reflects net losses on investments in equity securities through Q2 2024.

Tax rate guidance is now expected to be approximately 15% on both a reported and non-GAAP basis, driven by changes in the company's forecasted mix of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions.

Based on these changes, EPS guidance increased to the ranges of $15.10 to $15.60 on a reported basis and $16.10 to $16.60 on a non-GAAP basis. The company's 2024 financial guidance reflects adjustments shown in the reconciliation table below.

	2024 Guidance(1)
Earnings per share (reported)	$15.10 to $15.60
Amortization of intangible assets	.49
Asset impairment, restructuring, and other special charges	.38
