Shire Continues to Deliver Excellent Growth From Core Products
Posted on: Friday, 30 October 2009, 08:12 CDT
"Shire continues to deliver excellent growth from its core products, which were up 20% over an exceptionally strong Q3 2008. This performance reflects our transformation in the past few years into a global biopharmaceutical company with a proven differentiated strategy and a balanced portfolio of new products which is protected by strong exclusivity and patent protection.
The growth of our core products and continued pro-active cost management are positioning us well to deliver on our unchanged guidance framework for 2009 and our aspiration of growing sales in the mid-teens range on average between 2009 and 2015.
Following US approval of INTUNIV, our new ADHD treatment, we are preparing for the US launch next week. INTUNIV adds a new choice of treatment for physicians and patients within our market-leading branded portfolio of ADHD products. We have also continued to grow VYVANSE's market share which is now 13.4%, benefiting from both the 'back to school' season and strong 10% ADHD market growth. These results reinforce our confidence that VYVANSE will grow to become a leading product in this market.
Our HGT business continues to deliver; a New Drug Application for
velaglucerase alfa, for Gaucher disease, was filed with the FDA at the end of
August. Velaglucerase alfa is available ahead of its commercial launch in the
US via a treatment protocol and elsewhere on a pre-approval access basis. We
are supporting the Fabry disease community with a stronger uptake of REPLAGAL
in
We continue to invest in our R&D pipeline. This quarter we announced a research collaboration with Santaris Pharma A/S, a leading player in RNA-based therapeutics, to develop its proprietary Locked Nucleic Acid technology in a range of rare diseases, thereby enabling us to build on our already strong competitive position in this area."

(1) The Non GAAP financial measures included above are explained on pages 26 and 27, together with an explanation of why Shire's management believes that these measures are useful to investors. For a reconciliation of these Non GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP, see pages 22 to 25. FINANCIAL SUMMARY Third Quarter 2009 (see page 7 for full Financial Results) - Product sales from core products were up 20% (up 23% at CER) to $532 million, driven by continued strong growth from: - VYVANSE(R) (up 34% to $129 million); - LIALDA(R)/MEZAVANT(R) (up 62% to $65 million); - ELAPRASE(R) (up 16% to $91 million, up 20% at CER); and - REPLAGAL(R) (up 8% to $48 million, up 15% at CER). - Product sales including ADDERALL(R) XR, were down 15% to $603 million, as ADDERALL XR product sales declined by 74%, or $198 million to $71 million. - Non GAAP operating income decreased by 52%, or $145 million, to $134 million due to the lower ADDERALL XR revenues in Q3 2009 and increased investment in research and development, which were partially offset by higher revenues from core products and lower selling, general and administrative costs. On a US GAAP basis operating income in Q3 2009 was $92 million, compared to $123 million in 2008 (2008 included the impact of a $121 million in-process R&D charge relating to the acquisition of Jerini AG ("Jerini")). - Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS were down 58% to $0.49 (Q3 2008: $1.17), and on a US GAAP basis diluted earnings per ADS were $0.33 (Q3 2008: $(0.20)). - During the first three quarters of 2009 Shire has generated Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS of $2.38 ($1.74 on a US GAAP basis). THIRD QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Products VYVANSE - for the treatment of Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder ("ADHD") - Following a review of governing statutory and regulatory standards and public comments, the US Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") has affirmed its prior decision to grant five-year New Chemical Entity ("NCE") exclusivity to lisdexamfetamine dimesylate. The five-year exclusivity period for VYVANSE expires on February 23, 2012. As a consequence of this decision, the FDA appropriately refused to file the Abbreviated New Drug Application submitted by Actavis Elizabeth, LLC ("Actavis") for generic lisdexamfetamine dimesylate in January 2009. VYVANSE is covered by US patents which remain in effect until June 29, 2023. INTUNIV(TM) - for the treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents in the US - On September 3, 2009 Shire announced that it received approval from the FDA for INTUNIV Extended Release Tablets for the treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. INTUNIV, a once-daily non-scheduled formulation of guanfacine, is the first selective alpha-2A adrenergic receptor agonist approved for the treatment of ADHD. - Once-daily INTUNIV is expected to be widely available in US pharmacies in November 2009 and will come in four dosage strengths (1 mg, 2 mg, 3 mg, and 4 mg). INTUNIV will be marketed in the US by the existing Shire ADHD sales team of nearly 600 representatives. FOSRENOL(R) - for the treatment of pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease ("CKD") in the EU - Shire has received approval through the European Mutual Recognition Procedure for an extension to the current indication for FOSRENOL as a treatment to control hyperphosphataemia in CKD patients who are not on dialysis and with a serum phosphorus level greater than or equal to 1.78mmol/L (5.5mg/dL). Pipeline Velaglucerase alfa - for the treatment of Gaucher disease - On July 30, 2009 Shire began the rolling submission with the FDA under Fast Track designation of a New Drug Application ("NDA") for velaglucerase alfa, its enzyme replacement therapy in development for the treatment of Type 1 Gaucher disease. On September 1, 2009 Shire reported that it had completed its NDA submission. Velaglucerase alfa is available ahead of its commercial launch, in the US via a treatment protocol and elsewhere on a pre-approval basis, to 300-600 patients in 2009 and will be available to several hundred more in 2010. REPLAGAL - for the treatment of Fabry disease - On October 21, 2009 Shire announced plans to file a Biologics License Application with the FDA for REPLAGAL (agalsidase alfa), its enzyme replacement therapy for Fabry disease, by the end of the year. The Company also announced that a treatment protocol for REPLAGAL, filed at the request of the FDA, has been approved, and that Shire will support emergency Investigational New Drug requests, in view of the announced supply restriction of the only currently marketed treatment for Fabry disease in the US. FIRAZYR(R) - for the treatment of hereditary angioedema ("HAE") - In September 2009 Shire initiated a clinical trial to investigate the safety of self-administration of FIRAZYR. Amicus collaboration for the development of pharmacological chaperones - On November 7, 2007 Shire licensed from Amicus Therapeutics Inc. ("Amicus") the rights to three pharmacological chaperone compounds in markets outside of the US: AMIGAL (HGT-3310) for Fabry disease, PLICERA (HGT-3410) for Gaucher Disease and HGT-3510 (formerly referred to as AT2220) for Pompe disease which were in clinical development. The parties have mutually agreed to terminate the collaboration and to return all rights for the three products to Amicus. Alba collaboration for the development of SPD 550 - On October 16, 2009 and following review of Phase 2 data, Shire informed Alba Therapeutics Corporation ("Alba") of its intent to terminate the collaboration. Effective November 15, 2009 Shire will return to Alba all rights to SPD 550 (larazotide cetate for celiac disease), also known as AT-1001. In December 2007 Shire had acquired rights to SPD550 in markets outside of the US and Japan. Business Research Collaboration with Santaris Pharma A/S ("Santaris") on Locked Nucleic Acid ("LNA") Drug Platform - On August 24, 2009 Shire announced that it had entered into a research collaboration with Santaris, to develop its proprietary LNA technology in a range of rare diseases. LNA technology has the benefit of shortened target validation and proof of concept, potentially increasing the speed and lowering the cost of development. As part of the joint research project Santaris will design, develop and deliver pre-clinical LNA oligonucleotides for Shire-selected orphan disease targets, and Shire will have the exclusive right to further develop and commercialize these candidate compounds on a worldwide basis. Legal proceedings - On September 23, 2009 the Company received a subpoena from the US Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General in coordination with the US Attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, seeking production of documents related to the sales and marketing of ADDERALL XR, DAYTRANA(R) and VYVANSE. Shire is cooperating and responding to this subpoena. - On October 19, 2009 Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. ("Teva") filed suit against Shire claiming that Shire is in breach of its supply contract for the authorized generic version of ADDERALL XR. Shire has been supplying Teva with authorized generic ADDERALL XR since April 1, 2009. Shire's ability to supply this product, however, is limited by quota restrictions that the US Drug Enforcement Administration places on amphetamine, which is the product's active ingredient.2009 OUTLOOK

Sales deductions represented 73% of branded ADDERALL XR gross sales in Q3 2009, compared to 26% in the same period in 2008 following higher Medicaid and Managed Care rebates subsequent to generic launch. These factors more than offset the positive impacts of price increases taken since Q3 2008, and the inclusion in product sales of shipments of authorized generic ADDERALL XR to Teva and Impax Laboratories, Inc. ("Impax") in Q3 2009.

Non GAAP R&D increased 23% to
Non GAAP SG&A declined in absolute terms by 6% due to the Company's continued focus on cost management. Non GAAP SG&A increased as a percentage of product sales due to lower product sales following the genericization of ADDERALL XR.

Taxation
The effective rate of tax for the three months to
The Non GAAP effective tax rate was higher in Q3 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 principally as a result of the recognition of valuation allowances against certain EU deferred tax assets and increases to accrued interest on tax contingencies in the third quarter of 2009. The adverse rate impact of these items was partially offset by foreign exchange gains on the retranslation of certain deferred tax assets, together with the benefit of tax return to provision adjustments following the submission of various tax returns in Q3 2009.

Such forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties and are subject to change at any time. In the event such risks or uncertainties materialize, the Company's results could be materially adversely affected. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, risks associated with: the inherent uncertainty of research, development, approval, reimbursement, manufacturing and commercialization of the Company's Specialty Pharmaceutical and Human Genetic Therapies products, as well as the ability to secure and integrate new products for commercialization and/or development; government regulation of the Company's products; the Company's ability to manufacture its products in sufficient quantities to meet demand; the impact of competitive therapies on the Company's products; the Company's ability to register, maintain and enforce patents and other intellectual property rights relating to its products; the Company's ability to obtain and maintain government and other third-party reimbursement for its products; and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Non GAAP Measures
This press release contains financial measures not prepared in accordance with US GAAP. These measures are referred to as "Non GAAP" measures and include: Non GAAP operating income; Non GAAP net income; Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS; effective tax rate on Non GAAP income from continuing operations before income taxes and earnings of equity method investees ("Effective tax rate on Non GAAP income"); Non GAAP Cost of product sales; Non GAAP Research and development; Non GAAP Selling, general and administrative; Non GAAP operating expenses; Non GAAP interest expense; and Non GAAP other income. These Non GAAP measures exclude the effect of certain cash and non-cash items, both recurring and non-recurring, that Shire's management believes are not related to the core performance of Shire's business. In the case of product sales, growth at constant exchange rates is calculated after restating current period product sales using the comparative periods' average foreign exchange rates.
These Non GAAP financial measures are used by Shire's management to make operating decisions because they facilitate internal comparisons of the Company's performance to historical results and to competitors' results. These measures are also considered by Shire's Remuneration Committee in assessing the performance and compensation of employees, including the Company's executive directors.
The Non GAAP measures are presented in this press release as the Company's management believe that they will provide investors with a means of evaluating, and an understanding of how Shire's management evaluates, the Company's performance and results on a comparable basis that is not otherwise apparent on a US GAAP basis, since many one-time, infrequent or non-cash items that the Company's management believe are not indicative of the core performance of the business may not be excluded when preparing financial measures under US GAAP.
These Non GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
The following items, including their tax effect, have been excluded from both 2008 and 2009 Non GAAP earnings, and from our 2009 guidance for Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS:
Amortization and asset impairments: - Intangible asset amortization and impairment charges; and - Other than temporary impairment of investments. Acquisitions and integration activities: - Upfront payments and milestones in respect of in-licensed and acquired products; - Costs associated with acquisitions, including transaction costs, and fair value adjustments on contingent consideration and acquired inventory; - Costs associated with the integration of companies; and - Incremental interest charges arising on the settlement of litigation with the former dissenting shareholders of TKT. Divestments, re-organizations and discontinued operations - Gains and losses on the sale of non-core assets; - Costs associated with restructuring and re-organization activities; - Termination costs; - Costs associated with the introduction of the new holding company; and - Income / (losses) from discontinued operations.Depreciation, which is included in Cost of product sales, Research and development costs and Selling, general and administrative costs in our US GAAP results, has been separately disclosed for the presentation of 2008 and 2009 Non GAAP earnings. A reconciliation of Non GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measure under US GAAP is presented on pages 22-25.
2008 Comparative Financial Information
Subsequent to the announcement of Shire's Q3 2008 results but prior to
the filing with the SEC of the Company's Form 10-Q for the third quarter of
2008, the Company settled the TKT appraisal rights litigation. On settlement,
the Company amended the method of determining its interest provision for this
litigation, and as a result recorded additional interest expense of
A reconciliation between the US GAAP financial information included in the original Q3 2008 results announcement and the comparative US GAAP financial information included herein is as follows:
