Amneal Reports First Quarter 2020 Financial Results

May 11, 2020

‒ Q1 2020 Net Revenue of $ 499 million; GAAP Net Income of $115 million; Diluted Earnings per Share of $0.78 ‒

‒ Q1 2020 Adjusted Net Income (1) of $60 million; Adjusted EBITDA (1) of $134 million; Adjusted Diluted EPS (1) of $0.20 ‒

‒ Maintaining 2020 Full Year Financial Outlook ‒

BRIDGEWATER, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE: AMRX) (the “Company”) announced its results today for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

“We are proud of how Amneal has responded to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic,” said Chirag and Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officers. “We mobilized quickly to ensure the health of our teams and the continued supply of medicines to patients. Our solid operational and financial performance in the first quarter reflects the strength of our differentiated platform, significant U.S. manufacturing capabilities and diverse supply chain. Building on our recent momentum, we continue to revitalize our generics business, grow our specialty franchise and strategically diversify the business. While we expect some headwinds due to social distancing and patients postponing non-essential physician visits and procedures, we are confident in our full-year 2020 guidance and in Amneal’s ability to drive long-term growth, profitability and value for our stakeholders in 2020 and beyond.”

Net revenue in the first quarter of 2020 was $499 million, an increase of 12% compared to $446 million in the first quarter of 2019, primarily due to the acquisition of 65% of AvKARE and its related entities, R&S, recently launched generic products, and growth of our Specialty segment. Net income attributable to Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. of $115 million in the first quarter compared to a net loss of $48 million in prior year period, primarily due to a discrete tax benefit of $110 million from net operating loss carrybacks offsetting previously paid taxes related to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), lower intangible asset impairment charges, and net revenue growth. Diluted EPS in the first quarter was $0.78 compared to a loss of $0.37 in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the first quarter of 2020 was $134 million, an increase of 20% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to net revenue growth and lower operating expenses. Adjusted net income(1) in the first quarter was $60 million, an increase of 43% compared to the prior year period, and primarily reflects an increase in net revenue, lower operating expenses and lower interest expense, partially offset by higher non-controlling interests due to the acquisition of 65% of AvKARE and its related entities, R&S, hereinafter referred to as “AvKARE”. Adjusted diluted EPS(1) in the first quarter was $0.20, compared to $0.14 for the prior year period.

In the first quarter of 2020, out of an abundance of caution in response to the high volatility impacting the financial markets due to COVID-19, the Company drew $300 million of its $500 million revolving credit facility. As the financial markets stabilized, the Company returned $200 million and intends to return the remaining over the next few months pending stability of financial conditions. Consequently, while the full $300 million draw down is reflected in our first quarter financials, as of today, $100 million remains in our possession.

The reader is cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations of future events. If the underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from the expectations and projections of the Company. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; the risk that our goodwill may become impaired, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, the impact of global economic conditions; our ability to successfully develop, license, acquire and commercialize new products on a timely basis; our ability to obtain exclusive marketing rights for our products; the competition we face in the pharmaceutical industry from brand and generic drug product companies, and the impact of that competition on our ability to set prices; our ability to manage our growth through acquisitions and otherwise; our dependence on the sales of a limited number of products for a substantial portion of our total revenues; the risk of product liability and other claims against us by consumers and other third parties; risks related to changes in the regulatory environment, including United States federal and state laws related to healthcare fraud abuse and health information privacy and security and changes in such laws; changes to FDA product approval requirements; risks related to federal regulation of arrangements between manufacturers of branded and generic products; the impact of healthcare reform and changes in coverage and reimbursement levels by governmental authorities and other third-party payers; the continuing trend of consolidation of certain customer groups; our reliance on certain licenses to proprietary technologies from time to time; our dependence on third-party suppliers and distributors for raw materials for our products and certain finished goods; our dependence on third-party agreements for a portion of our product offerings; our ability to identify and make acquisitions of or investments in complementary businesses and products on advantageous terms; legal, regulatory and legislative efforts by our brand competitors to deter competition from our generic alternatives; the significant amount of resources we expend on research and development; our substantial amount of indebtedness and our ability to generate sufficient cash to service our indebtedness in the future, and the impact of interest rate fluctuations on such indebtedness; and the high concentration of ownership of our Class A Common Stock and the fact that we are controlled by the Amneal Group. The forward-looking statements contained herein are also subject generally to other risks and uncertainties that are described from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in its subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Forward-looking statements included herein speak only as of the date hereof and we undertake no obligation to revise or update such statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date hereof.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted operating income, which are intended as supplemental measures of the Company’s performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. All business results presented in this release are not prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The calculation of non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share assumes the conversion of all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock to shares of Class A Common Stock.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations and to better understand its business because they facilitate a comparative assessment of the Company's operating performance relative to its performance based on results calculated under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures also isolate the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance and eliminate certain charges that management believes do not reflect the Company's operations and underlying operational performance. The compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors also uses certain of these measures to evaluate management's performance and set its compensation. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures also provide useful information to investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and operating results facilitates an evaluation of the financial performance of the Company and its operations on a consistent basis. Providing this information therefore allows investors to make independent assessments of the Company’s financial performance, results of operation and trends while viewing the information through the eyes of management.

These non-GAAP measures are subject to limitations. The non-GAAP measures presented in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies because other companies may not calculate one or more in the same manner. Additionally, the non-GAAP performance measures exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements; do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and do not reflect interest expense, or the requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt. Further, our historical adjusted results are not intended to project our adjusted results of operations or financial position for any future period. To compensate for these limitations, management presents and considers these non-GAAP measures in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP results; no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation from or as alternatives to net income, diluted earnings per share or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Readers should review the reconciliations included below, and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

The Company cannot provide a reconciliation between non-GAAP projections and the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items required for the reconciliation. The items include, but are not limited to, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring expenses and benefits, asset impairments and other gains and losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results.

A reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is set forth below.

Adjusted gross profit is calculated as net revenue less adjusted cost of goods sold.

Adjusted gross margin is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by net revenue.

Generics net revenue was $353 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $382 million for the prior year period, a $29 million decline. The reclassification of Oxymorphone to the Specialty segment and divestitures of our international businesses in 2019 accounted for $29 million of the quarter to quarter decline. In addition, new product launches in 2019 including EluRyng (Generic NuvaRing) and Sucralfate as well as mid-single digit net revenue growth from AvKARE offset price erosion primarily related to Levothyroxine and Diclofenac Gel generic competition.

Generics gross margin for the first quarter of 2020 was 38% compared to 13% for the prior year period. The increase primarily relates to lower impairment charges, amortization of an upfront licensing payment in the prior year period, and new product launches partially offset by price erosion, the reclassification of Oxymorphone and divestitures of our international businesses. Generics adjusted gross margin for the first quarter of 2020 was 42% for the both the current and prior year period.

Generics operating income for the first quarter of 2020 was $82 million compared to operating loss of $55 million for the prior year period. The increase primarily reflects the increase in gross margin described above, lower in-process R&D impairment charges and lower SG&A as well as R&D expenses due to cost reduction initiatives.

Generics adjusted operating income for the first quarter of 2020 was $103 million compared to $97 million for the prior year period primarily due to new product launches, and a reduction of expenses as a result of cost saving initiatives, partially offset by a reduction to Levothyroxine and Diclofenac revenue, the reclassification of Oxymorphone and divestitures of our international businesses.

Adjusted gross profit is calculated as net revenue less adjusted cost of goods sold.

(2)

Adjusted gross margin is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by net revenue.

Specialty net revenue was $88 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $64 million for the prior year period, primarily due to the reclassification of Oxymorphone to the Specialty segment during the third quarter of 2019, and higher revenue from Rytary® and Unithroid®.

Specialty gross margin for the first quarter of 2020 was 46% compared to 52% for the prior year period primarily due to product sales mix.

Specialty adjusted gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2020 was 75% compared to 83% for the prior year period primarily due to the addition of lower margin Oxymorphone as noted above.

Specialty operating income for the first quarter of 2020 was $10 million compared to $5 million for the prior year period, primarily due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher cost of goods sold and operating expenses.

Specialty adjusted operating income for the first quarter of 2020 was $39 million compared to $29 million for the prior year period primarily due to the higher revenue.
