PITTSBURGH, Aug. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Viatris Inc. (NASDAQ: VTRS) today reported another strong quarter of operating results which continues to set the Company up well as it prepares to bring its Phase 1 strategy to an end and position itself for a strong beginning of Phase 2 in 2024 and beyond.

Executive Commentary

Viatris CEO Scott A. Smith said: "Obviously, I could not be more pleased with our overall execution in the second quarter—one of the strongest quarters we've had to date at Viatris. These results signal what we expect to be the beginning of a growth journey for Viatris and set us up well for future success. As proud as I am of our strong performance, the foundation the Company has built and the stability and predictability we believe have clearly been achieved, my focus is on the future trajectory of the Company. I'm pleased to say we believe we are currently on track to announce all planned divestitures in 2023, including at least one significant divestiture in the third quarter, possibly more. The Company has laid out clear capital allocation and business development priorities for Phase 2 and we are fully dedicated to meeting these priorities to propel Viatris up the value chain and increase our return of capital to shareholders."

Viatris President Rajiv Malik said: "Our performance this quarter highlights our Company's momentum like never before and further reinforces the predictability in our base business. Our strong and highly diversified business model of bringing access has never depended on any one product, portfolio or market. We believe this diversity lays a solid foundation for growth in Phase 2, beginning in 2024. We continue to execute and are making consistent progress on our deep pipeline and are on track to meet our full-year 2023 new product revenue target. In addition, I would be remiss not to call out our significant achievement of another first with our launch of Breyna, our generic Symbicort, in July."

Viatris CFO Sanjeev Narula said: "We are pleased with our strong fundamentals and continued excellent operational performance. It was another solid quarter of free cash flow generation which allowed us to deliver on our capital allocation priorities. We continue to prioritize deleveraging the balance sheet with $6.1 billion of debt paydown since the beginning of 2021. Additionally, we returned approximately $144 million of capital to our shareholders in the quarter in dividends. We are reaffirming our financial guidance for 2023 as a result of our strong performance in the first half of the year and the momentum we have going into the second half."

Return of Capital to Shareholders

Viatris announced that, on August 4, 2023, its Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of twelve cents ($0.12) for each issued and outstanding share of the Company's common stock. The dividend is payable on September 15, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 24, 2023.

Viatris paid a quarterly cash dividend of twelve cents ($0.12) per share on the Company's issued and outstanding common stock on June 16, 2023.

2023 Financial Guidance

Viatris is reaffirming its 2023 financial guidance that was previously provided on February 27, 2023, as set forth below. The Company is not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP net earnings or a quantitative reconciliation of its 2023 adjusted EBITDA guidance to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, U.S. GAAP net earnings, because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items, including integration, acquisition and divestiture related expenses, restructuring expenses, asset impairments, litigation settlements, and other contingencies, such as changes to contingent consideration, acquired IPR&D and certain other gains or losses, including for the fair value accounting for non-marketable equity investments, as well as related income tax accounting, because certain of these items have not occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period. U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities for 2023 is estimated to be between $2.8 billion and $3.1 billion, with a midpoint of approximately $2.95 billion. The Company currently expects to be at the mid-point of the financial guidance ranges.

(In billions)		2023 Guidance Range (2)		2023 Midpoint
Total Revenues		$15.5 - $16.0		$15.75
Adjusted EBITDA (1)		$5.0 - $5.4		$5.2
Free Cash Flow (1)		$2.3 - $2.7		$2.5

(1)	Non-GAAP financial measures. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for additional information.
(2)	Includes the full year expected performance for the planned divestitures and excludes any potential related costs, such as taxes and transaction costs, as well as any similar costs related to the eye care acquisitions. Also excludes any acquired IPR&D for unsigned deals.

Certain Key Terms and Presentation Matters

New product sales, new product launches or new product revenues: Refers to revenue from new products launched in 2023 and the carryover impact of new products, including business development, launched within the last twelve months.

Operational change: Refers to constant currency percentage changes and is derived by translating amounts for the current period at prior year comparative period exchange rates, and in doing so shows the percentage change from 2023 constant currency net sales, revenues and adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding amount in the prior year.

Divestiture adjusted operational change: Refers to operational changes, further adjusted for the impact of the biosimilars divestiture in November 2022 by excluding biosimilars net sales from 2022 periods, and a reclassification to conform prior year amounts to current year presentation of divestiture adjusted operational net sales.

SG&A and R&D TSA reimbursement: Expenses related to TSA services provided to Biocon Biologics are recorded in their respective functional line item; however, reimbursement of those expenses plus the mark-up is included in other (income) expense, net. For comparability purposes, amounts related to the cost reimbursement are reclassified to adjusted SG&A and adjusted R&D. This reclassification has no impact on adjusted net earnings or adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the presentation and discussion of certain financial information that differs from what is reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures, including, but not limited to, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margins, adjusted net earnings, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, adjusted R&D and as a % of total revenues, adjusted SG&A and as a % of total revenues, adjusted earnings from operations, adjusted interest expense, adjusted other (income) expense, net, adjusted effective tax rate, constant currency total revenues, constant currency net sales, constant currency adjusted EBITDA, 2022 adjusted net sales ex biosimilars and other, and divestiture adjusted operational change, are presented in order to supplement investors' and other readers' understanding and assessment of the financial performance of Viatris Inc. ("Viatris" or the "Company"). Free cash flow refers to U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Management uses these measures internally for forecasting, budgeting, measuring its operating performance, and incentive-based awards. Primarily due to acquisitions and other significant events which may impact comparability of our periodic operating results, Viatris believes that an evaluation of its ongoing operations (and comparisons of its current operations with historical and future operations) would be difficult if the disclosure of its financial results was limited to financial measures prepared only in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental information for our investors and when considered together with our U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations. The financial performance of the Company is measured by senior management, in part, using adjusted metrics included herein, along with other performance metrics. In addition, the Company believes that including EBITDA and supplemental adjustments applied in presenting adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors to demonstrate the Company's ability to comply with financial debt covenants and assess the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness. The Company also believes that adjusted EBITDA better focuses management on the Company's underlying operational results and true business performance and is used, in part, for management's incentive compensation. We also report sales performance using the non-GAAP financial measures of "constant currency", also referred to herein as "operational change", total revenues, net sales and adjusted EBITDA. These measures provide information on the change in total revenues, net sales and adjusted EBITDA assuming that foreign currency exchange rates had not changed between the prior and current period. The comparisons presented at constant currency rates reflect comparative local currency sales at the prior year's foreign exchange rates. We routinely evaluate our net sales, total revenues and adjusted EBITDA performance at constant currency so that sales results can be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating a period-to-period comparison of our operational activities, and believe that this presentation also provides useful information to investors for the same reason. Divestiture adjusted operational change refers to operational change, further adjusted for the impact of the biosimilars divestiture in November 2022 by excluding biosimilars net sales from 2022 periods, and a reclassification to conform prior year amounts to current year presentation of divestiture adjusted operational net sales. The "Summary of Total Revenues by Segment" table below compares net sales on an actual and constant currency basis for each reportable segment for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 as well as for total revenues, as well as divestiture adjusted operational change in net sales. Also, set forth below, Viatris has provided reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Investors and other readers are encouraged to review the related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures set forth below, and investors and other readers should consider non-GAAP measures only as supplements to, not as substitutes for or as superior measures to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For additional information regarding the components and uses of Non-GAAP financial measures refer to Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of Viatris' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2023. 

The Company is not providing forward-looking U.S. GAAP information for its non-GAAP 2024 Phase 2 outlooks or quantitative reconciliations with respect to such outlooks to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items, including integration and acquisition-related expenses, restructuring expenses, asset impairments, litigation settlements and other contingencies, such as changes to contingent consideration and certain other gains or losses, including for the fair value accounting for non-marketable equity investments, as well as related income tax accounting, because certain of these items have not occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the relevant periods.

You can access Viatris' filings with the SEC through the SEC website at www.sec.gov or through our website, and Viatris strongly encourages you to do so. Viatris routinely posts information that may be important to investors on our website at investor.viatris.com, and we use this website address as a means of disclosing material information to the public in a broad, non-exclusionary manner for purposes of the SEC's Regulation Fair Disclosure (Reg FD). The contents of our website are not incorporated into this press release or our filings with the SEC. Viatris undertakes no obligation to update any statements herein for revisions or changes after the date of this press release other than as required by law.

In particular, certain statements in this release relate to Viatris' Phase 2 strategy in 2024 and beyond and its related goals, targets, forecasts, objectives and commitments (such statements, the "Phase 2 Outlooks"). Viatris believes that the assumptions used as a basis for these Phase 2 Outlooks are reasonable based on the information available to management at this time. However, this information is not fact, and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such information. While certain of these statements might use language that imply a level of certainty about the likelihood that Viatris will attain these Phase 2 Outlooks, it is possible that Viatris will not attain them in the timeframe noted or at all. These Phase 2 Outlooks reflect assumptions as to certain business decisions that are subject to change. Important factors that may affect actual results and cause these Phase 2 Outlooks not to be achieved, or that may change the underlying variables and assumptions on which these Phase 2 Outlooks were based and cause these Phase 2 Outlooks to differ materially, include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to our planned acquisitions and divestitures, including whether such transactions are completed on the expected timelines or at all, failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of any acquisitions or divestitures, failure to receive the anticipated cash proceeds of any divestitures, inability to manage base business erosion, failure to bring new products to market on the expected timeframes or at all, failure to execute stock repurchases consistent with current expectations, stock price volatility, higher than anticipated SG&A, gross margins and R&D spend, industry performance, interest rate volatility, foreign exchange rates, tax rates, the regulatory environment and general business and economic conditions, as well as those set forth in the first paragraph of "Forward-Looking Statements". In addition, although certain of the outlooks are presented with numerical specificity, they are still forward-looking statements that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Further, these Phase 2 Outlooks cover multiple years and such information by its nature becomes less reliable with each successive year. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any aspect of these Phase 2 Outlooks will be realized or that actual results will not differ materially. Therefore, you should construe these statements regarding these Phase 2 Outlooks only as goals, targets and objectives rather than promises of future performance or absolute statements.
