Insights

Zai Lab's Q2 2024 results demonstrate strong commercial performance and pipeline progress. Key highlights:

  • Net product revenue of $100.1 million, up 45% y-o-y
  • VYVGART sales of $23.2 million, with full-year guidance raised to over $80 million
  • Cash position of $730 million as of June 30, 2024
  • Net loss narrowed to $80.3 million from $120.9 million in Q2 2023

The impressive revenue growth is driven by VYVGART's successful launch and NRDL listing. The company's focus on high-value initiatives and financial discipline is evident. With multiple product approvals and pipeline advancements, Zai Lab is on track for profitability by end-2025. However, investors should monitor R&D expenses and cash burn rate as the company advances its pipeline.

Zai Lab's Q2 results highlight its strong execution in both commercialization and pipeline development. The company's strategic focus on high-value assets is paying off, particularly with VYVGART's success in gMG. Key pipeline developments include:

  • Expansion into ADCs with the ROR1-targeting ZL-6301
  • Three product approvals in China (XACDURO, efgartigimod SC, AUGTYRO)
  • Advancement of global programs like bemarituzumab and ZL-1218

The company's ability to in-license promising assets and advance them through clinical development and commercialization is impressive. With at least four regulatory submissions planned in the next 12 months, including KarXT for schizophrenia, Zai Lab is poised for significant growth in its product portfolio. This diversification across oncology, immunology and neuroscience strengthens its market position.

Zai Lab's Q2 performance underscores its strong market positioning in China's biopharma sector. The company's success with VYVGART highlights the unmet medical need in gMG and Zai Lab's ability to capitalize on it. Key market insights:

  • ZEJULA maintains growth despite mature market, indicating strong brand position
  • NUZYRA's 165% y-o-y growth shows potential in antibiotics market
  • VYVGART's rapid uptake suggests high demand for innovative autoimmune treatments

The company's strategy of focusing on high-value, innovative therapies aligns well with China's healthcare reforms and growing demand for advanced treatments. The expansion into ADCs and continued progress in oncology and neuroscience position Zai Lab to capture significant market share in these high-growth therapeutic areas. However, the company will face increasing competition as China's biopharma sector matures, requiring continued innovation and market execution.

SHANGHAI & CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Zai Lab Limited (NASDAQ: ZLAB; HKEX: 9688) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2024, along with recent product highlights and corporate updates.

“In the second quarter, we achieved impressive commercial growth, maintained financial discipline, and made significant strides across our product portfolio, highlighting our capability to execute on our strategic objectives,” said Dr. Samantha Du, Founder, Chairperson, and Chief Executive Officer of Zai Lab. “The success of VYVGART underscores the urgent need for effective and safe treatments for patients living with generalized myasthenia gravis. We will continue to prioritize resources and focus investments on high-value initiatives with the potential to significantly improve human health. Recently, we expanded our global oncology pipeline with a next generation ROR1 ADC program, ZL-6301. Additionally, the progress of our pipeline, including efgartigimod, bemarituzumab, KarXT and our three global clinical-stage assets, keeps us on track to achieve the goals outlined in our five-year strategic plan.”

“Our net product revenues grew 45% y-o-y in the second quarter, driven by the successful commercialization of VYVGART,” said Josh Smiley, President and Chief Operating Officer of Zai Lab. “In 2024, we will maintain our focus on the strong execution of VYVGART’s launch in generalized myasthenia gravis while also preparing for the anticipated launches of several new products and indications in the near future.

Second-Quarter 2024 Financial Results

  • Product revenue, net was $100.1 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $68.9 million for the same period in 2023, representing 45% y-o-y growth and 47% y-o-y growth at CER. This increase was primarily driven by increased sales for VYVGART since its launch in September 2023 and China’s National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) listing in January 2024, and increased sales for ZEJULA and NUZYRA. Primary drivers of this revenue growth included the following:
  • ZEJULA®: $45.0 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 5% y-o-y from $43.0 million for the same period in 2023, driven by increased hospital sales in first-line ovarian cancer and increased duration of treatment and supported by the renewal of ZEJULA’s NRDL listing for the maintenance treatment of adult patients with first-line and recurrent ovarian cancer, effective January 1, 2024.
  • VYVGART®: $23.2 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $0.1 million for the same period in 2023, driven by its NRDL listing for the treatment of generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) effective January 1, 2024 and positive physician and patient reception as well as increased patient access as VYVGART is added to hospital formularies. VYVGART was launched for the treatment of gMG in September 2023.
  • NUZYRA®: $12.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 165% y-o-y compared to $4.6 million for the same period in 2023, driven by the NRDL listings for the IV formulation of NUZYRA for the treatment of adults with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) and acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) in the first quarter of 2023 and the oral formulation for these indications in the first quarter of 2024.
  • Research and Development (R&D) expenses were $61.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $76.7 million for the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to decreased milestone fees for our license and collaboration agreements, partially offset by increased clinical trial expenses related to newly initiated studies and progress of existing studies.
  • Selling, General and Administrative expenses were $79.7 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $67.9 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily driven by higher general selling expenses and headcount growth primarily to support VYVGART.
  • Net loss was $80.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, or a loss per ordinary share attributable to common stockholders of $0.08 (or loss per American Deposit Share (ADS) of $0.82), compared to a net loss of $120.9 million for the same period in 2023, or a loss per ordinary share of $0.13 (or loss per ADS of $1.25).
  • Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and current restricted cash totaled $730.0 million as of June 30, 2024, compared to $750.8 million as of March 31, 2024.

Corporate Updates

Below are key corporate updates since our last earnings release:

  • Business Development: In July 2024, Zai Lab entered into a strategic partnership and global license agreement with MabCare Therapeutics. Through this collaboration, the Company expanded its global oncology pipeline with a next generation ADC targeting ROR1, ZL-6301. ZL-6301 has the potential to be used in the treatment of solid tumors where ROR1 is commonly expressed and in hematological malignancies where ROR1 is a validated target. ZL-6301 has demonstrated an encouraging pre-clinical profile, and it is currently in the IND-enabling stage. Zai Lab plans to focus on advancing its global development.
  • Organizational Update: In June 2024, Zai Lab appointed Dr. Rafael Amado as President, Head of Global Research and Development, expanding his role to encompass R&D efforts across all of our therapeutic areas upon the retirement of Dr. Harald Reinhart at the end of June. This leadership transition allows for continued momentum and a strategic focus on our pipeline.
