OSI Pharmaceuticals Announces Third Quarter 2007 Financial Results
- Reports Earnings of $0.59 Per Share From Continuing Operations —
-
- Tarceva Global Net Sales of $226 Million Up 32% Over The Third Quarter of 2006

- Total Revenue Up 77% Over The Third Quarter of 2006 -
MELVILLE, NEW YORK — October 25, 2007 — OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSIP) announced today its financial results for the Company’s third quarter ended September 30, 2007. The Company reported net income from continuing operations of $35.9 million (or $0.59 per share) for the three months ended September 30, 2007, compared with net income from continuing operations of $159,000 (or $0.00 per share) for the third quarter of 2006.
Total worldwide net sales of Tarceva® (erlotinib) for the third quarter of 2007, as reported by the Company’s collaborators for Tarceva, Genentech, Inc. and Roche, were approximately $226 million representing a 32% growth in global sales compared to the same period last year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 worldwide Tarceva net sales were approximately $635 million representing a 38% increase over the same period last year.
The Company reported total revenues from continuing operations of $100 million for the third quarter of 2007 compared to revenues of $57 million for the third quarter of 2006, an increase of 77%. Revenues were comprised of the following key items:
    Net revenues from the unconsolidated joint business for Tarceva of $42 million, compared to $40 million in the third quarter of 2006, arising from the Company’s co-promotion arrangement with Genentech. The net revenues are based on total U.S. Tarceva net sales of $101 million, compared to $100 million in the third quarter of 2006. U.S. net sales for the third quarter of 2007 were negatively impacted by approximately $13 million of reserve adjustments due to unusually high product returns related to expiring inventory returned to Genentech;
 
    Royalties of $25 million compared to $14 million in the third quarter of 2006 from Roche, the Company’s international partner for Tarceva. The royalty revenues are
-more-

 


 

      based on total rest of world Tarceva sales of approximately $125 million which increased 77%, compared to the $71 million reported in the third quarter of 2006;
 
    License, milestone and other revenues of $33 million compared with $3 million in the third quarter of 2006. The increase is comprised primarily of licenses, milestone and royalty income related to worldwide non-exclusive licensing agreements under the Company’s DP-IV patent portfolio covering the use of DP-IV inhibitors for treatment of type 2 diabetes, the amortization of an upfront license fee related to a licensing agreement granted to Eli Lilly and Company, in January 2007, for our Glucokinase Activator program, and license revenue from Renovo in connection with their licensing agreement with Shire, plc for their TGF-beta 3 drug candidate Juvista®.
Operating expenses from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2007 were $64.4 million, compared to $56.8 million for last year’s third quarter. Research and development expenses for the third quarter of 2007 were $29.5 million compared to $29.8 million for the third quarter of 2006. The Company also recognized a $7.5 million in-process research and development charge related to its recently announced new drug discovery and translational research collaboration with AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2007 decreased to $24.8 million from $25.4 million for the third quarter of 2006. Operating expenses include $3.4 million (or $0.05 per share) of equity related compensation expense for the third quarter of 2007, compared to $2.9 million (or $0.05 per share) for the third quarter of 2006.
On November 6, 2006, we announced our intention to divest our eye disease business, a process which we expect to complete in 2007. Our eye disease business consists principally of Macugen® (pegaptanib sodium injection), our marketed product for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration, as well as research assets in the eye disease area. As a result of our decision to divest the eye disease business, or Eyetech, the operating results for Eyetech, for all periods presented, is shown as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Earlier in the third quarter, the Company announced the sale of its anti-platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) aptamer program, a key Eyetech research asset to Ophthotech Corporation.
The Company’s net income, including results from discontinued operations, was $29.6 million (or $0.49 per share) for the three months ended September 30, 2007, compared with a net loss of $21.3 million (or $0.37 per share) reported for the third quarter of 2006.

(c)   Represents a gain recorded in other income (expenses) — net as result of the curtailment of the Company’s post retirement medical plan.
The table above details the charges excluded in the calculation of the Company’s adjusted income from continuing operations. Management believes that these charges are not reflective of the Company’s normal on-going operations. The adjusted financial results can assist in making meaningful period-over-period comparisons and in identifying operating trends that could otherwise be masked or distorted by the items subject to the adjustments. Management uses the adjusted results internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including the allocation of resources as well as the planning and forecasting of future periods and believes these results are useful to others in analyzing operating performance and trends of the Company. The adjusted amounts are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP amounts.
