INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT ON FORM 6-K
Preliminary Unaudited Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2024
Preliminary Unaudited Financial Results
On July 1, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing preliminary unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Company preliminarily estimates that:
· | Preliminary total revenues for the second quarter of 2024 between $196 - $201 million. Preliminary total revenues for the first six months of 2024 are $233 - $238 million, an approximately 10-fold increase compared to total revenues for the same period in 2023. |
· | Preliminary product revenues from global sales of Alvotech’s biosimilars to Humira® (adalimumab) and Stelara® (ustekinumab), for the second quarter of 2024 are $51 – $54 million. Preliminary growth in the first half of 2024 of approximately 180% year-over-year compared to the same period in 2023, with product revenues of $63 - $66 million for the first six months of 2024. |
· | Preliminary milestone revenues in the second quarter of 2024 are $145 - $147 million or $169 - $171 million for the first six months of 2024, primarily due to the achievement of top-line clinical results for certain clinical programs and multiple global product launches in the second quarter of 2024. |
· | Preliminary adjusted EBITDA is $98 - $103 million for the second quarter of 2024 or $60 - $65 million for the first six months of the year. This compares to an adjusted EBITDA loss of ($178) million for the first half of 2023. |
This information reflects the Company’s preliminary estimates, based on currently available information. The Company has provided estimated ranges, rather than point estimates, primarily because financial closing procedures for the quarter are not yet completed and final results may therefore vary from these estimates. These preliminary estimates have not been audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
A copy of the Company’s press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure which is defined in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC. The Company has presented its expectations regarding adjusted EBITDA without presenting the most directly comparable IFRS measure or a corresponding quantitative reconciliation, as such information is not available to the Company without unreasonable efforts at the time of the release of this preliminary financial information. The Company is not able to estimate net (loss) income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the variability and complexity with respect to the charges excluded from adjusted EBITDA.
Cautionary note on forward-looking statements
This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend” and similar expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Report are forward-looking statements. These statements include, but are, but not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s preliminary unaudited financial and operating results for the second quarter of 2024. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s expectations and assumptions as of
the date of this Report. Each of these forward-looking statements involves risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. For a discussion of risk factors that may cause the Company’s actual results to differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements in this Report, you should refer to the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the “Risk Factors” sections contained therein. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Report.
The unaudited, estimated results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 in this Report on Form 6-K are preliminary financial information, remain subject to completion, and were prepared by the Company’s management based upon estimates, a number of assumptions and currently available information, and are subject to revision based upon, among other things, quarter-end closing procedures and/or adjustments, the completion of the Company’s financial statements and other operational procedures. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to this preliminary financial information and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to this preliminary financial information.
INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE
