- A positive variance represents a positive impact to net income due to the application of IAS 29 and a negative variance represents a negative impact to net income due to the application of IAS 29
- Percentage change is presented in absolute values
- Revenues excluding the impact of IAS 29 is a non-GAAP measure, refer to section “Non-GAAP measures” for additional details.
The change in revenues by therapeutic areas is explained by the following:
- Oncology/Hematology: The increase in revenues of $3,222 is driven by growth in our key promoted brands, including newly launched Lenvima® and Halaven® in Colombia, the growth of Trelstar® in Canada and the assumption of commercial activities of AKYNZEO® in Brazil. This increase is offset by a reduction in revenues of our branded generics products due to market entrance of new competitors.
- Infectious Diseases: With the increase in patient treatments as our markets reduce COVID-19 restrictions as well as the growth of our key promoted products the infectious disease portfolio grew by approximately $7,000. The growth is offset by an estimated $10,500 due to lower demand for certain of our infectious diseases products to treat invasive fungal infections associated with COVID-19 as well as the planned transition and termination agreement with Gilead effective July 1, 2022.
- Other Specialty: The decrease in revenues is mainly due to advance purchases of certain customers in Brazil in Q2-22 in anticipation of the transfer of the commercial activities of Exelon® from Novartis to Knight of approximately $2,000.
Gross margin: For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, excluding the impact of IAS 29, gross margin is 49% compared to 54% in the same period in prior year. The decrease is explained by the change in the accounting of Exelon® from a net profit transfer to the recognition of revenues and related costs upon the transfer of commercial activities from Novartis to Knight in Colombia at the end of Q2-22 and Brazil at the beginning of Q3-22, as well as a change in product mix.
Under IFRS, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, gross margin decreased from 51% in Q3-21 to 42% in Q3-22. In addition to the change in the accounting of Exelon® and product mix, the gross margin under IFRS was further impacted by a higher level of inflation in Argentina in the current quarter as compared to Q3-21. The inflation in Argentina has increased to 66% in the first nine months of 2022 from 37% in the same prior year period, which further negatively impact the gross margin under IAS 29.
Knight expects gross margin as a % of revenues to decline over the next quarters as the commercial activities of Exelon® are transferred to Knight on a country-by-country basis and the Company records revenues with related cost of sales instead of a net profit transfer. In addition, the gross margin under IFRS, as a % of revenues, is expected to decline due to an increasing inflation environment in Argentina.
Selling and marketing (“S&M”): For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, S&M expenses were $13,456, an increase of $3,466 or 35% compared to the same period in prior year. Excluding the impact of IAS 29, the increase is $2,905 or 30% driven by an increase in compensation expenses, certain variable costs such as logistics fees, as well as an increase in selling and marketing activities related to key promoted products and Exelon®.
General and administrative (“G&A”): For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, G&A expenses were $10,416, an increase of $1,653 or 19%, compared to the same period in prior year. Excluding the impact of IAS 29, the increase is $1,007 or 12% mainly driven by an increase in compensation expense.
Research and development (“R&D”): For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, R&D expenses were $4,220, an increase of $427 or 11%, compared to the same period in prior year.
Amortization of intangible assets: For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, amortization of intangible assets increased by $1,044 driven by in-licensing of AKYNZEO® and ALOXI® from Helsinn as well as fostamatinib from Rigel, and the appreciation of the USD vs. the CAD.
Impairment of intangible assets: For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the company recorded an impairment of intangible assets of $2,080 related to the upfront and certain milestones payments made under certain product license agreements as a result of changes in commercial expectations.
Interest income: Interest income is the sum of interest income on financial instruments measured at amortized cost and other interest income. For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, interest income was $2,462, an increase of 76% or $1,060, compared to the same period in prior year due to higher interest rates on cash and marketable securities.
Interest expense: For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, interest expense was $1,479, an increase of $520 or 54%, compared to the same period in prior year due to higher interest rates offset by a lower average bank loan balance.
Adjusted EBITDA: For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, adjusted EBITDA decreased by $8,325 or 48%. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA is driven by a decrease in gross margin of $7,365 and an increase in operating expenses.
Net loss or income: For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, net income was $1,591 compared to net loss of $8,586 for the same period in prior year. The variance mainly resulted from the above-mentioned items and (1) a net loss on the revaluation of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss of $5,446 versus a net loss of $21,301 in the same period in prior year, mainly due to unrealized revaluations of the strategic fund investments, (2) a foreign exchange gain of $10,787 mainly due to the unrealized gains on intercompany balances driven by the appreciation of the USD compared to a foreign exchange gain of $7,143 in the same period in prior year mainly due to the appreciation of the USD and (3) a gain of $6,030 as a result of execution of settlement agreement and general release with the former shareholders of GBT.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities: As at September 30, 2022, Knight had $145,142 in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, a decrease of $4,360 or 3% as compared to December 31, 2021. The variance is primarily due to outflows related to due to upfront payments and certain milestones mainly related to in-licensing of AKYNZEO® and ALOXI® from Helsinn as well as fostamatinib from Rigel, shares repurchased through NCIB, principal repayments on bank loans partially offset by cash inflows from operating activities and foreign exchange gain on cash and cash equivalents.
Financial assets: As at September 30, 2022, financial assets were at $166,911, a decrease of $25,532 or 13%, as compared to the prior year, mainly due to negative mark-to-market adjustments of $29,688 driven by the decline in the share prices of the publicly-traded equities of our strategic fund investments due to general market conditions and distributions of $5,520, offset by capital calls of $3,300, net loans issued of $2,723 and foreign exchange gains of $5,336. Given the nature of the fund investments there could be significant fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying assets.
Bank Loans: As at September 30, 2022, bank loans were at $33,220, a decrease of $2,707 or 8% as compared to the prior period, due to loan repayments of $5,447, partially offset by the appreciation of BRL and accrued interest.
Product Updates
As at November 9, 2022, the marketing authorizations of Exelon® for Brazil, Colombia, Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Peru and Canada were transferred to Knight. In addition, Knight has assumed the commercial activities of Exelon® in Colombia in Q2-22, Brazil, Argentina & Chile in Q3-22 and Mexico, Peru & Canada in Q4-22.
On May 12, 2022, Knight entered into an exclusive license, distribution and supply agreement with Helsinn for AKYNZEO® oral/IV (netupitant/palonosetron / fosnetupitant/palonosetron) in Canada, Brazil and select LATAM countries and ALOXI® oral/IV (palonosetron) in Canada. Knight has assumed commercial activities and re-launched AKYNZEO® in Brazil and Argentina in July 2022 and expects to begin commercial activities in Canada in Q4-22 following the transition from Helsinn’s current licensee.
Corporate Updates
NCIB
On July 12, 2022, the Company announced that the Toronto Stock Exchange approved its notice of intention to launch a NCIB (“2022 NCIB”). Under the terms of the 2022 NCIB, Knight may purchase for cancellation up to 7,988,986 common shares of the Company which represented 10% of its public float as at June 30, 2022. The 2022 NCIB commenced on July 14, 2022 and will end on the earlier of July 13, 2023 or when the Company completes its maximum purchases under the NCIB. Furthermore, Knight entered into an agreement with a broker to facilitate purchases of its common shares under the NCIB. Under Knight’s automatic share purchase plan, the broker may purchase common shares which would ordinarily not be permitted due to regulatory restrictions or self-imposed blackout periods.
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, the Company purchased 800,700 common shares at an average price of $5.57 for an aggregate cash consideration of $4,463, of which $655 remains to be settled as at September 30, 2022. Subsequent to quarter-end up to November 9, 2022, the Company purchased an additional 887,800 common shares at an average purchase price of $5.35 for an aggregate cash consideration of $4,750.
Settlement Agreement
Knight executed a settlement agreement and general release (“Settlement Agreement”) with the former shareholders of GBT. The Company made certain claims (“Claims”) with respect to its indemnification rights under the purchase agreement for the acquisition of GBT. Under the Settlement Agreement, Knight received $6,030 (US$4,600) as settlement for the Claims.
Financial Outlook Update
Knight provides guidance on revenues1 on a non-GAAP basis. This is due to both the difficulty in predicting Argentinian inflation rates and its IAS 29 impact.
For fiscal 2022, Knight has updated its guidance and expects to generate $265 to $275 million in revenue, an increase of $5 million on the lower and upper range. The guidance is based on a number of assumptions, including but not limited to the following:
- no revenues for business development transactions not completed as at November 9, 2022
- discontinuation of certain distribution agreements
- no interruptions in supply whether due to global supply chain disruptions or general manufacturing issues
- no new generic entrants on our key pharmaceutical brands
- no unforeseen changes to government mandated pricing regulations
- successful commercial execution on product listing arrangements with HMOs, insurers, key accounts, and public payers
- successful execution and uptake of newly launched products
- no significant restrictions or economic shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic
- foreign currency exchange rates remaining within forecasted ranges
Should any of the assumptions differ, the financial outlook and the actual results may vary materially. Refer to the risks and assumptions referred to in the Forward-Looking Statements section of this news release for further details.

IMPACT OF HYPERINFLATION
[In thousands of Canadian dollars]
The Company applies IAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflation Economies, as the Company's Argentine subsidiaries used the Argentine Peso as their functional currency. IAS 29 requires that the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy be adjusted based on an appropriate general price index to express the effects of inflation. If the Company did not apply IAS 29, the effect on the Company's operating income would be as follows:

NON-GAAP MEASURES
[In thousands of Canadian dollars]
Non-GAAP measures
The Company discloses non-GAAP measures that do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. The Company believes that shareholders, investment analysts and other readers find such measures helpful in understanding the Company’s financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and may not have been calculated in the same way as similarly named financial measures presented by other companies.
The Company uses the following non-GAAP measures:
Revenues and Financial results excluding the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29: Revenues and financial results under IFRS are adjusted to remove the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29. Impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29 is calculated by applying an appropriate general price index to express the effects of inflation. After applying the effects of translation, the statement of income is converted using the closing foreign exchange rate of the month.
Revenues/financial results at constant currency allow revenues/financial results to be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates thereby facilitating the comparison of results period over period. The presentation of revenues/financial results under constant currency is considered to be a non-GAAP measure and does not have any standardized meaning under GAAP. As a result, the information presented may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
EBITDA: Operating income or loss adjusted to exclude amortization and impairment of intangible asset, depreciation, purchase price allocation accounting adjustments, and the impact of IAS 29 (accounting under hyperinflation) but to include costs related to leases.
Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA adjusted for acquisition costs and non-recurring expenses.
Adjustments include the following:
- With the adoption of IFRS 16, the lease payments of Knight are not reflected in operating expenses. The IFRS 16 adjustment approximates the cash outflow related to leases of Knight.
- Acquisition costs relate to costs incurred on legal, consulting and advisory fees for the acquisition of GBT and the acquisition of products.
- Other non-recurring expenses relate to expenses incurred by Knight that are not due to, and are not expected to occur in, the ordinary course of business.
For the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, the Company calculated EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as follows:
