GAITHERSBURG, Md., Nov. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (NYSE: EBS) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

"Through disciplined execution and steady, measurable progress, Emergent's financial position is the strongest it has been since 2021 as evidenced by our favorable third-quarter results," said CEO Joe Papa. "We have successfully improved efficiencies and refocused our operations related to customer demand, generated value in our core medical countermeasures and NARCAN® Nasal Spray businesses and refinanced our debt leading to increased revenue and cash flow."

Papa continued, "Based on the success of our efforts since the beginning of this year, we are officially entering the turnaround phase of our multi-year transformation plan, and we will be focused on driving profitable growth, continued operational improvements and the generation of sustainable value for shareholders. We believe ongoing public health crises like the opioid overdose epidemic and mpox outbreak underscore the need for Emergent's capabilities and expertise. It is not if, but when, the next public health threat emerges, and we believe we are uniquely qualified to help respond to protect, enhance and save lives."

Products Sales, net

NARCAN®

For Q3 2024, revenues from NARCAN® (naloxone HCl) Nasal Spray decreased $46.8 million, or 33%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by the discontinuation of prescription NARCAN® due to the launch of over-the-counter (“OTC”) NARCAN® in the third quarter of 2023 and lower Canadian retail sales, partially offset by higher sales of OTC NARCAN®.

Anthrax MCM

For Q3 2024, revenues from Anthrax MCM products decreased $21.5 million, or 65%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease reflects the impact of timing of sales related to CYFENDUS® and Anthrasil®, partially offset by an increase in BioThrax® sales, due to timing. Anthrax vaccine product sales are primarily made under annual purchase options exercised by the U.S. government (the “USG”). Fluctuations in revenues result from the timing of the exercise of annual purchase options, the timing of USG purchases, the availability of governmental funding and the Company’s delivery of orders that follow.

Smallpox MCM

For Q3 2024, revenues from Smallpox MCM products increased $108.0 million, or 437%, as compared with Q3 2023. The increase was primarily due to timing of USG purchases of ACAM2000® and VIGIV. Fluctuations in revenues from Smallpox MCM result from the timing of the exercise of annual purchase options in the existing procurement contracts, the timing of USG purchases, the availability of governmental funding and Company delivery of orders that follow.

Other Products

For Q3 2024, revenues from Other Product sales decreased $20.0 million, or 40%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was due to lower product sales of BAT®, due to timing of deliveries, and lower product sales of RSDL®, which was sold to SERB during the third quarter of 2024.

Bioservices Revenues

Services

For Q3 2024, revenues from Bioservices services increased $0.7 million, or 5%, as compared with Q3 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in production at the Company’s Camden facility, prior to the sale of the facility to Bora, partially offset by lower production at the Company’s Canton and Winnipeg facilities.

Leases

For Q3 2024, revenues from Bioservices leases decreased $0.6 million, or 60%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was related to the completion of a lease for a Bioservices customer at our Canton facility, partially offset by new lease revenue associated with SERB at our Winnipeg facility.

Contracts and Grants

For Q3 2024, revenues from contracts and grants increased $3.5 million, or 54%, as compared with Q3 2023. The increase was primarily due to timing of funding as well as an increase related to work under the Ebanga™ program.

Cost of Commercial Product Sales

For Q3 2024, cost of Commercial Product sales decreased $12.8 million, or 21%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower prescription NARCAN® unit volume, partially offset by higher OTC NARCAN® unit volume.

Cost of MCM Product Sales

For Q3 2024, cost of MCM Product sales decreased $18.5 million, or 26%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of BAT® and CYFENDUS®, coupled with lower allocations to Cost of MCM Product sales at our Bayview facility. This decrease was partially offset by higher sales of BioThrax® and ACAM2000®.

Cost of Bioservices

For Q3 2024, cost of Bioservices decreased $22.9 million, or 52%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower overhead and remediation costs related to the sale of the Camden facility, coupled with a decrease in overhead costs at our other Maryland facilities as a result of the announced shutdowns and lower costs at our Canton facility. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in production at our Winnipeg facility.

Research and Development Expenses

For Q3 2024, R&D expenses decreased $1.5 million, or 10%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was driven by a reduction in spend for certain funded and unfunded projects, excluding Ebanga™. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in funded R&D related to Ebanga™.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

For Q3 2024, SG&A expenses decreased $9.4 million, or 11%, as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower employee related expenses and compensation as a result of restructuring initiatives during 2023 and 2024, coupled with a decrease in legal services fees for disputes and other corporate initiatives. This decrease was partially offset by the settlement charge related to the stockholder litigation matter, net of expected insurance proceeds.

Goodwill Impairment

For Q3 2024, Goodwill impairment decreased $218.2 million as compared with Q3 2023. The decrease was due to the Q3 2023 non-cash impairment charge to Goodwill in the MCM Products reporting unit, which reduced the reporting unit’s goodwill balance to zero.

Capital expenditures$5.8 $12.6 (54)%
Capital expenditures as a % of total revenues 2% 5% 
        

For Q3 2024, capital expenditures decreased largely due to lower product development activities across the Company’s facilities.

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company manages the business with a focus on three reportable segments: (1) the Commercial Products segment consisting of our NARCAN® and other commercial products that were sold as part of our travel health business in the second quarter of 2023; (2) the MCM Products segment consisting of the Anthrax - MCM, Smallpox - MCM and Other products and (3) the services segment (“Services”) consisting of our Bioservices business. The Company evaluates the performance of these reportable segments based on revenues and segment adjusted gross margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Segment revenue includes external customer sales, but does not include inter-segment services. The Company does not allocate contracts and grants revenue, R&D, SG&A, amortization of intangible assets, interest and other income (expense) or taxes to its evaluation of the performance of these segments.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In the accompanying analysis of financial information, we sometimes use information derived from consolidated and segment financial information that may not be presented in our financial statements or prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain of these financial measures are considered not in conformity with GAAP (“non-GAAP financial measures”) under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. Specifically, we have referred to the following non-GAAP financial measures:

  • Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
  • Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share
  • Adjusted EBITDA
  • Total Segment Revenues
  • Total Segment Gross Margin
  • Total Segment Gross Margin %
  • Total Segment Adjusted Gross Margin
  • Total Segment Adjusted Gross Margin %
  • Segment Adjusted Gross Margin
  • Segment Adjusted Gross Margin %

We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures, as net income (loss) and net income (loss) per diluted share, respectively, excluding the impact of changes in fair value of financial instruments, acquisition and divestiture-related costs, severance and restructuring costs, settlement charges, net, exit and disposal costs, impairment charges, gain (loss) on sale of business, non-cash amortization charges, contingent consideration milestones, and other income (expense) items. We use Adjusted Net Income (Loss) for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share. Management uses Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share to assess total Company operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with an additional understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends.

We define Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as consolidated net income (loss) before income tax provision (benefit), interest expense, net, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, excluding the impact of changes in fair value of financial instruments, acquisition and divestiture-related costs, severance and restructuring costs, settlement charges, net, exit and disposal costs, impairment charges, gain (loss) on sale of business, non-cash amortization charges, contingent consideration milestones and other income (expense) items. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of our operating results, including underlying trends. In addition, EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by many of our competitors. It is used by investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and others to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry, although it may be defined differently by different companies. Therefore, we also believe that this non-GAAP financial measure, considered along with corresponding GAAP financial measures, provides management and investors with additional information for comparison of our operating results with the operating results of other companies.

We have included the definitions of Segment Gross Margin and Segment Gross Margin %, which are GAAP financial measures, below in order to more fully define the components of certain non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release. We define Segment Gross Margin, as a segment's revenues, less a segment's cost of sales or services. We define Segment Gross Margin %, as Segment Gross Margin as a percentage of a segments revenues. We define Segment Adjusted Gross Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure as Segment Gross Margin excluding the impact of restructuring costs, changes in the fair value of financial instruments, settlement charges, net and inventory step-up provision. We define Segment Adjusted Gross Margin %, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Segment Adjusted Gross Margin as a percentage of a segment's revenues.

We define Total Segment Revenues, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as our Total Revenues, less contracts and grants revenue, which is also equal to the sum of the revenues of our reportable operating segments. We define Total Segment Gross Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Total Segment Revenues less our aggregate cost of sales or services. We define Total Segment Gross Margin %, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Total Segment Gross Margin as a percentage of Total Segment Revenues. We define Total Segment Adjusted Gross Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Total Segment Gross Margin, excluding the impact of restructuring costs, settlement charges, net, changes in the fair value of financial instruments and inventory step-up provision. We define Total Segment Adjusted Gross Margin %, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Total Segment Adjusted Gross Margin as a percentage of Total Segment Revenues.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable with other similarly titled measures of other companies. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depend upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.

Forward-looking statements are based on our current intentions, beliefs, assumptions and expectations regarding future events based on information that is currently available.

Any such forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this press release, and, except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect new information, events or circumstances.

There are a number of important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including, among others, the availability of USG funding for contracts related to procurement of our medical countermeasure ("MCM") products, including CYFENDUS® (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed (AVA) Adjuvanted), previously known as AV7909, BioThrax® (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed), and ACAM2000® (Smallpox (Vaccinia) Vaccine, Live) among others, as well as contracts related to development of medical countermeasures; the availability of government funding for our other commercialized products, including Ebanga™ (ansuvimab-zykl) and BAT® (Botulism Antitoxin Heptavalent (A,B,C,D,E,F,G)-(Equine)); our ability to meet our commitments to quality and compliance in all of our manufacturing operations; our ability to negotiate additional USG procurement or follow-on contracts for our MCM products that have expired or will be expiring; the commercial availability and acceptance of over-the-counter NARCAN® (naloxone HCl) Nasal Spray; the impact of a generic and competitive marketplace on NARCAN® Nasal Spray and future NARCAN® Nasal Spray sales; our ability to perform under our contracts with the USG, including the timing of and specifications relating to deliveries; our ability to provide Bioservices (as defined below) for the development and/or manufacture of product and/or product candidates of our customers at required levels and on required timelines; the ability of our contractors and suppliers to maintain compliance with current good manufacturing practices and other regulatory obligations; our ability to negotiate further commitments related to the collaboration and deployment of capacity toward future commercial manufacturing under our existing Bioservices contracts; our ability to collect reimbursement for raw materials and payment of service fees from our Bioservices customers; the results of pending government investigations and their potential impact on our business; our ability to obtain final court approval of the proposed settlement agreement relating to the stockholder litigation, including our ability to satisfy the conditions of the proposed settlement, and the source of funds to be used to resolve the litigation, and the potential impact of the settlement agreement, if approved, on our business; our ability to comply with the operating and financial covenants required by our term loan facility under a credit agreement, dated August 30, 2024, our revolving credit facility under a credit agreement, dated September 30, 2024, and our 3.875% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2028; our ability to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting and to prepare accurate financial statements in a timely manner; our ability to successfully manage our liquidity in order to continue as a going concern; the procurement of our product candidates by USG entities under regulatory authorities that permit government procurement of certain medical products prior to FDA marketing authorization, and corresponding procurement by government entities outside the United States; our ability to realize the expected benefits of the sale of our travel health business to Bavarian Nordic, the sale of RSDL® to SERB Pharmaceuticals and the sale of our drug product facility in Baltimore-Camden to Bora Pharmaceuticals Injectables Inc.; the impact of the organizational changes we announced in January 2023, August 2023, May 2024 and August 2024; our ability to identify and acquire companies, businesses, products or product candidates that satisfy our selection criteria; the impact of cyber security incidents, including the risks from the unauthorized access, interruption, failure or compromise of our information systems or those of our business partners, collaborators or other third parties; the success of our commercialization, marketing and manufacturing capabilities and strategy; and the accuracy of our estimates regarding future revenues, expenses, capital requirements and need for additional financing. The foregoing sets forth many, but not all, of the factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations in any forward-looking statement.
