Negative

• None.

TEL AVIV, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA) today reported results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

• Revenues of $3.7 billion
• GAAP loss per share of $0.18
• Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.40
• Cash flow used in operating activities of $145 million
• Free cash flow of $41 million
• Non-GAAP gross profit margin of 49.1% was mainly impacted by an unfavorable portfolio mix and an increase in COGS due to inflationary pressure. We expect our gross profit margin to improve in the coming quarters due to improved portfolio mix driven by our innovative products, namely AUSTEDO^®, AJOVY^® and UZEDY^™, as well as by lower COGS, driven by supply chain enhancements and easing of certain elements of inflationary pressure.
• Full year 2023 business outlook reaffirmed:
  • Revenues of $14.8 - $15.4 billion
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $4.5 - $4.9 billion
  • Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $2.25 - $2.55
  • Free cash flow of $1.7 - $2.1 billion

Mr. Richard Francis, Teva's President and CEO, said, “I am pleased to report that our revenues for the first quarter reached $3.7 billion, marking a 4% increase in local currency terms, compared to the first quarter of 2022: We have seen growth across all regions - Europe is experiencing a solid 9% increase, International Markets an 8% increase, and North America is up 2%.”

Mr. Francis continued, "Our innovative brands performed well this quarter - AUSTEDO grew 10% year-over-year and AJOVY grew 35% across all regions in local currency. We are also excited about the recent approvals of AUSTEDO XR, the new once-daily formulation for AUSTEDO, and UZEDY (risperidone), our new long-acting injectable treatment for schizophrenia in adults. While we are seeing some positive tailwinds, we are also taking decisive actions to address some headwinds, mainly through improved portfolio mix driven by our innovative products and supply chain enhancements. We expect these actions will improve our gross profit margin in the coming quarters, and today, we are reaffirming our 2023 outlook which was provided in February.

As we prepare to launch our new strategy next week, I am filled with enthusiasm and optimism. This strategy will build on Teva's strong foundations, key strengths, and sets the stage for long-term growth. We have worked hard over the last few months to challenge ourselves, look at how the market is evolving and how we can create substantial value both for Teva and for patients. I am really excited about the outcome – a new roadmap where we will make decisive choices and focus our resources to drive growth and innovation."

First Quarter 2023 Consolidated Results

Revenues in the first quarter of 2023 were $3,661 million, flat compared to the first quarter of 2022. In local currency terms, revenues increased by 4%, mainly due to higher revenues from generic products in our Europe and International Markets segments, certain innovative products primarily AUSTEDO and AJOVY, as well as from Anda in our North America segment, partially offset by lower revenues from generic products in our North America segment, API sales to third parties and BENDEKA^® and TREANDA^® in our North America segment.

Exchange rate movements during the first quarter of 2023, including hedging effects, negatively impacted our revenues by $128 million compared to the first quarter of 2022. Exchange rate movements during the first quarter of 2023, including hedging effects, negatively impacted our operating income and non-GAAP operating income by $32 million and $33 million, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2022.

Gross profit was $1,582 million in the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of 9% compared to the first quarter of 2022. Gross profit margin was 43.2% in the first quarter of 2023, compared to 47.5% in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP gross profit was $1,796 million in the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of 10% compared to the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP gross profit margin was 49.1% in the first quarter of 2023, compared to 54.2% in the first quarter of 2022. This decrease in both gross profit margin and non- GAAP gross profit margin was mainly driven by rising costs due to inflationary and other macroeconomic pressures, an increase in revenues with lower profitability from Anda in our North America segment, lower revenues from COPAXONE^® and BENDEKA and TREANDA, and an unfavorable impact of hedging activities, partially offset by higher revenues from AUSTEDO and AJOVY.

Research and Development (R&D) expenses in the first quarter of 2023 were $234 million, an increase of 4% compared to $225 million, in the first quarter of 2022, mainly due to an increase in neuroscience (mainly neuropsychiatry) and immunology as well as various generics and biosimilar products.

Selling and Marketing (S&M) expenses in the first quarter of 2023 were $546 million, a decrease of 6% compared to the first quarter of 2022.

General and Administrative (G&A) expenses in the first quarter of 2023 were $296 million, flat compared to the first quarter of 2022.

Other income in the first quarter of 2023 was $2 million, compared to $52 million in the first quarter of 2022. Other income in the first quarter of 2022 was mainly the result of settlement proceeds in our International Markets segment.

Operating income in the first quarter of 2023 was $2 million, compared to an operating loss of $713 million in the first quarter of 2022. Operating income as a percentage of revenues was 0.1% in the first quarter of 2023, compared to operating loss as a percentage of revenues of 19.5% in the first quarter of 2022. The increase in operating income and in operating margin in the first quarter of 2023 was mainly due to higher legal settlements and loss contingencies in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP operating income in the first quarter of 2023 was $785 million representing a non-GAAP operating margin of 21.4%, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $1,013 million, representing a non-GAAP operating margin of 27.7%, in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in non-GAAP operating margin in the first quarter of 2023 was mainly impacted by lower non-GAAP gross profit margin as discussed above, as well as higher other income in the first quarter of 2022, which primarily included settlement proceeds in our International Markets segment.

Adjusted EBITDA was $899 million in the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of 21%, compared to $1,135 million in the first quarter of 2022.

Financial expenses, net in the first quarter of 2023 were $260 million, compared to $258 million in the first quarter of 2022. Financial expenses, net in the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 were mainly comprised of interest expenses of $260 million and $238 million, respectively.

In the first quarter of 2023, we recognized a tax benefit of $19 million on a pre-tax loss of $258 million. In the first quarter of 2022, we recognized a tax expense of $2 million on a pre-tax loss of $971 million.

Non-GAAP tax rate in the first quarter of 2023 was 15.5%, compared to 18.5% in the first quarter of 2022. Our non-GAAP tax rate in the first quarter of 2023 was mainly affected by the geographic mix of earnings and interest expense disallowances.

We expect our annual non-GAAP tax rate for 2023 to be between 14%-17%, higher than our non-GAAP tax rate for 2022, which was 11.7%, mainly due to the effect of a portion of the realization of losses related to an investment in one of our U.S. subsidiaries in 2022.

Net loss attributable to Teva and loss per share in the first quarter of 2023 were $205 million and $0.18, respectively, compared to $955 million and $0.86, respectively, in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP net income attributable to Teva and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in the first quarter of 2023 were $457 million and $0.40, respectively, compared to $609 million and $0.55, respectively, in the first quarter of 2022.

As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, the fully diluted share count for purposes of calculating our market capitalization was approximately 1,158 million and 1,145 million, respectively.

Non-GAAP information: net non-GAAP adjustments in the first quarter of 2023 were $661 million. Non-GAAP net income attributable to Teva and non-GAAP diluted EPS for the first quarter of 2023 were adjusted to exclude the following items:

• Amortization of purchased intangible assets of $165 million, of which $145 million is included in cost of sales and the remaining $20 million in S&M expenses;
• Legal settlements and loss contingencies of $233 million;
• Impairment of long-lived assets of $188 million;
• Restructuring expenses of $56 million;
• Equity compensation expenses of $32 million;
• Accelerated depreciation of $25 million;
• Financial expenses of $23 million;
• Contingent consideration expense of $20 million;
• Costs related to regulatory actions taken in facilities of $1 million;
• Other non-GAAP items of $63 million;
• Items attributable to non-controlling interests of $40 million; and
• Corresponding tax effects and unusual tax items of $104 million.

We believe that excluding such items facilitates investors’ understanding of our business.

For further information, see the tables below for a reconciliation of the U.S. GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP figures and the information under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacement for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Cash flow used in operating activities during the first quarter of 2023 was $145 million, compared to $49 million in the first quarter of 2022. The higher cash flow used in the first quarter of 2023 resulted mainly from lower profit and changes in working capital items, including an increase in accounts receivables net of SR&A, partially offset by an increase in accounts payables.

During the first quarter of 2023, we generated free cash flow of $41 million, which we define as comprising $145 million in cash flow used in operating activities, $323 million in beneficial interest collected in exchange for securitized accounts receivables (under our EU securitization program) and $2 million in proceeds from divestitures of businesses and other assets, partially offset by $139 million in cash used for capital investment. During the first quarter of 2022, we generated free cash flow of $117 million, which we define as comprising $49 million in cash flow used in operating activities, $305 million in beneficial interest collected in exchange for securitized accounts receivables (under our EU securitization program) and $25 million in proceeds from divestitures of businesses and other assets, partially offset by $157 million in cash used for capital investment and $7 million in cash used for acquisition of businesses, net of cash acquired. The decrease in the first quarter of 2023, resulted mainly from higher cash flow used in operating activities, as discussed above.

As of March 31, 2023, our debt was $20,691 million, compared to $21,212 million as of December 31, 2022. This decrease was mainly due to $646 million senior notes repaid at maturity, partially offset by $176 million of exchange rate fluctuations. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2023, we repurchased $2,506 million aggregate principal amount of notes upon consummation of a cash tender offer, and issued $2,445 million of sustainability-linked senior notes, net of issuance costs. The portion of our total debt classified as short-term as of March 31, 2023 was 5%, compared to 10% as of December 31, 2022. Our average debt maturity was approximately 6.4 years as of March 31, 2023, compared to 5.8 years as of December 31, 2022.

This press release contains certain financial information that differs from what is reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures, including, but not limited to, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, non-GAAP tax rate, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Teva and non-GAAP diluted EPS, are presented in order to facilitate investors' understanding of our business. We utilize certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate performance, in conjunction with other performance metrics. The following are examples of how we utilize the non-GAAP measures: our management and board of directors use the non-GAAP measures to evaluate our operational performance, to compare against work plans and budgets, and ultimately to evaluate the performance of management; our annual budgets are prepared on a non-GAAP basis; and senior management’s annual compensation is derived, in part, using these non-GAAP measures. See the attached tables for a reconciliation of the GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP measures. Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacements for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We are not providing forward looking guidance for GAAP reported financial measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items including, but not limited to, the amortization of purchased intangible assets, legal settlements and loss contingencies, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill impairment, without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are based on management’s current beliefs and expectations and are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that could cause our future results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from that expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “target,” “may,” “project,” “guidance,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words and terms of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include risks relating to:

• our ability to successfully compete in the marketplace, including: that we are substantially dependent on our generic products; concentration of our customer base and commercial alliances among our customers; delays in launches of new generic products; the increase in the number of competitors targeting generic opportunities and seeking U.S. market exclusivity for generic versions of significant products; our ability to develop and commercialize biopharmaceutical products; competition for our innovative medicines, including AUSTEDO, AJOVY and COPAXONE; our ability to achieve expected results from investments in our product pipeline; our ability to develop and commercialize additional pharmaceutical products; and the effectiveness of our patents and other measures to protect our intellectual property rights;
• our substantial indebtedness, which may limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, engage in additional transactions or make new investments, may result in a further downgrade of our credit ratings; and our inability to raise debt or borrow funds in amounts or on terms that are favorable to us;
• our business and operations in general, including: the impact of global economic conditions and other macroeconomic developments and the governmental and societal responses thereto; the widespread outbreak of an illness or any other communicable disease, or any other public health crisis; effectiveness of our optimization efforts; our ability to attract, hire, integrate and retain highly skilled personnel; manufacturing or quality control problems; interruptions in our supply chain; disruptions of information technology systems; breaches of our data security; variations in intellectual property laws; challenges associated with conducting business globally, including political or economic instability, major hostilities or terrorism; costs and delays resulting from the extensive pharmaceutical regulation to which we are subject; the effects of reforms in healthcare regulation and reductions in pharmaceutical pricing, reimbursement and coverage; significant sales to a limited number of customers; our ability to successfully bid for suitable acquisition targets or licensing opportunities, or to consummate and integrate acquisitions; and our prospects and opportunities for growth if we sell assets;
• compliance, regulatory and litigation matters, including: failure to comply with complex legal and regulatory environments; increased legal and regulatory action in connection with public concern over the abuse of opioid medications and any delay in our ability to obtain sufficient participation of plaintiffs for the nationwide settlement of our opioid-related litigation in the United States; scrutiny from competition and pricing authorities around the world, including our ability to successfully defend against the U.S. Department of Justice criminal charges of Sherman Act violations; potential liability for intellectual property right infringement; product liability claims; failure to comply with complex Medicare and Medicaid reporting and payment obligations; compliance with anti-corruption, sanctions and trade control laws; environmental risks; and the impact of ESG issues;
• other financial and economic risks, including: our exposure to currency fluctuations and restrictions as well as credit risks; potential impairments of our long-lived assets; the impact of geopolitical conflicts including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; potential significant increases in tax liabilities; and the effect on our overall effective tax rate of the termination or expiration of governmental programs or tax benefits, or of a change in our business;
  
  and other factors discussed in this press release, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2023 and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, including in the sections captioned "Risk Factors” and “Forward Looking Statements.” Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or other information contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
