Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:IRWD), a GI-focused healthcare company, today reported its second quarter 2022 results and recent business performance.

"We made progress towards our goal of becoming the leading GI healthcare company in the U.S., as the positive momentum across our business continued in the second quarter," said Tom McCourt, chief executive officer of Ironwood. "We are pleased by the year-over-year double-digit LINZESS prescription demand growth in the first half of 2022, and we believe there is still significant opportunity to reach appropriate new patients and drive additional growth for the brand. In addition to the commercial success of LINZESS, we continue to make progress with our ongoing clinical trials. We now expect our Phase 3 pediatric study of linaclotide in 6 to 17 year-olds with functional constipation to readout in the third quarter of this year and remain on track with the previously shared data readout timing for IW-3300 and CNP-104. We believe our capabilities in GI, strong balance sheet and disciplined capital allocation continue to position our company for growth moving forward."

Pipeline Updates

Pediatric Program

Ironwood and AbbVie are currently advancing the linaclotide clinical pediatric program to potentially expand the clinical profile of LINZESS (assuming positive data and FDA approval).

– The functional constipation study in 6- to 17-year-olds is expected to readout in the third quarter of 2022. There are currently no FDA approved prescription pediatric therapies for functional constipation.

IW-3300

Ironwood is currently advancing IW-3300, a guanylate cyclase-C agonist being developed for the potential treatment of visceral pain conditions, such as interstitial cystitis / bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) and endometriosis.

– Ironwood has successfully completed Phase I studies to evaluate the safety and tolerability of IW-3300 in healthy volunteers and expects to initiate a Phase 2 proof of concept study in IC/BPS patients by the end of 2022.

CNP-104

Ironwood has a collaboration and license option agreement with COUR Pharmaceuticals Development Company, Inc. ("COUR"). This agreement gives Ironwood an option to acquire an exclusive license to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize, in the U.S., products containing CNP-104 ("CNP-104"), a tolerizing immune modifying nanoparticle, for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis ("PBC"), a rare autoimmune disease targeting the liver. If successful, CNP-104 has the potential to be the first approved PBC disease modifying therapy.

– COUR is currently conducting a clinical study for CNP-104 evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamic effects and efficacy of CNP-104 in PBC patients, and remains on track with a data readout estimated in 2023.

Second Quarter Financial Results

Total Revenues. Total revenues in the second quarter of 2022 were $97.2 million, compared to $104.0 million in the second quarter of 2021.

– Total revenues in the second quarter of 2022 consisted of $94.5 million associated with Ironwood's share of the net profits from the sales of LINZESS in the U.S. and $2.7 million in royalties and other revenue. Total revenues in the second quarter of 2021 consisted of $100.3 million associated with Ironwood's share of the net profits from the sales of LINZESS in the U.S., and $3.7 million in linaclotide royalties and other revenue.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2022 were $41.6 million, compared to $38.9 million in the second quarter of 2021.

– Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2022 consisted of $30.1 million in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses, and $11.5 million in research and development ("R&D") expenses. Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2021 consisted of $27.0 million in SG&A expenses and $12.2 million in R&D expenses, partially offset by a $0.3 million adjustment to restructuring expenses.

Interest Expense, net of Interest and Investment Income. Net interest expense was $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily in connection with Ironwood's convertible senior notes, partially offset by $1.0 million of investment income. Interest expense recorded in the second quarter of 2022 included $1.7 million in cash expense and $0.5 million in non-cash expense. Net interest expense was $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, primarily in connection with Ironwood's convertible senior notes. Interest expense recorded in the second quarter of 2021 included $1.8 million in cash expense and $5.9 million in non-cash expense. The reduction in non-cash interest expense in the second quarter of 2022 relates to the adoption of ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06") on January 1, 2022, that impacts the accounting for Ironwood's convertible senior notes.

Loss on Derivatives. Ironwood recorded a loss on derivatives of $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, as a result of the change in fair value of its convertible note hedges and note hedge warrants. The convertible note hedges terminated unexercised upon expiration in June 2022. Ironwood recorded a loss on derivatives of $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2021, as a result of the change in fair value of its convertible note hedges and note hedge warrants.

Income Tax Expense. Ironwood recorded $16.7 million of income tax expense in the second quarter of 2022, the majority of which was non-cash, as Ironwood continues to utilize net operating losses to offset taxable income for federal purposes and in many states. Ironwood recorded $336.9 million of income tax benefit in the second quarter of 2021, primarily related to the release of its valuation allowance against the majority of its deferred tax assets. Ironwood maintained a valuation allowance on the majority of its net deferred tax assets until the second quarter of 2021.

GAAP Net Income. GAAP net income was $37.1 million, or $0.24 per share (basic) and $0.21 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2022 compared to GAAP net income of $391.3 million, or $2.42 per share (basic) and $2.39 per share (diluted) in the second quarter of 2021.

Non-GAAP Net Income. Non-GAAP net income was $37.8 million, or $0.24 per share (basic) and $0.21 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2022, compared to non-GAAP net income of $56.4 million, or $0.35 per share (basic) and $0.34 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2021.

Non-GAAP net income excludes the impact of mark-to-market adjustments on the derivatives related to Ironwood's 2022 Convertible Notes, restructuring expenses, and the release of the company's valuation allowance against the majority of deferred tax assets in the second quarter of 2021. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures below.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA was $56.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $65.2 million in the second quarter of 2021.

– Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by subtracting mark-to-market adjustments on derivatives related to Ironwood's 2022 Convertible Notes, restructuring expenses, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization from GAAP net income. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures below.

Cash Flow Highlights. Ironwood ended the second quarter of 2022 with $504.4 million of cash and cash equivalents.

– Ironwood generated $61.4 million in cash from operations in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $48.6 million in cash from operations in the second quarter of 2021.

– Ironwood used $120.7 million of cash to repay the remaining aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Convertible Notes and $33.9 million of cash to repurchase shares of its Class A Common Stock in the second quarter of 2022.

Ironwood 2022 Financial Guidance. In 2022, Ironwood continues to expect:

	2022 Guidance
U.S. LINZESS Net Sales Growth	Low single digits %
Total Revenue	$420 to $430 million
Adjusted EBITDA¹	>$250 million

¹Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by subtracting mark-to-market adjustments on derivatives related to Ironwood's 2022 Convertible Notes, restructuring expenses, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization from GAAP net income. For purposes of this guidance, Ironwood has assumed that it will not incur material expenses related to business development activities in 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Ironwood presents non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share to exclude the impact of net gains and losses on derivatives related to Ironwood's 2022 Convertible Notes that are required to be marked-to-market, restructuring expenses, and the release of the company's valuation allowance

against the majority of deferred tax assets in the second quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP adjustments are further detailed below:

The gains and losses on the derivatives related to Ironwood's 2022 Convertible Notes were highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that could have a substantial impact on the company's reported results of operations in any given period.
Restructuring expenses are considered to be a non-recurring event as they are associated with distinct operational decisions. Included in restructuring expenses are costs associated with exit and disposal activities.
The income tax benefit associated with the valuation allowance release in the second quarter of 2021 was a non-cash, non-recurring accounting recognition event, and does not affect the company's ability to utilize its historical net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income.

Ironwood also presents adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, as well as guidance on adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by subtracting mark-to-market adjustments on derivatives related to Ironwood's 2022 Convertible Notes, restructuring expenses, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization from GAAP net income. The adjustments are made on a similar basis as described above related to non-GAAP net income, as applicable.

Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful for investors, taken in conjunction with Ironwood's GAAP financial statements, because it provides greater transparency and period-over-period comparability with respect to Ironwood's operating performance. These measures are also used by management to assess the performance of the business. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP information provided by other companies. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share to GAAP net income and GAAP net income per share, respectively, and for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income, please refer to the tables at the end of this press release.

Ironwood does not provide guidance on GAAP net income or a reconciliation of expected adjusted EBITDA to expected GAAP net income because, without unreasonable efforts, it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the non-GAAP adjustments used to calculate adjusted EBITDA. These adjustments are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on GAAP net income for the guidance period.

About LINZESS (linaclotide)

LINZESS® is the #1 prescribed brand in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation ("IBS-C") or chronic idiopathic constipation ("CIC"), based on IQVIA data.

LINZESS is a once-daily capsule that helps relieve the abdominal pain, constipation, and overall abdominal symptoms of bloating, discomfort and pain associated with IBS-C, as well as the constipation, infrequent stools, hard stools, straining, and incomplete evacuation associated with CIC. The recommended dose is 290 mcg for IBS-C patients and 145 mcg for CIC patients, with a 72-mcg dose approved for use in CIC depending on individual patient presentation or tolerability. LINZESS should be taken at least 30 minutes before the first meal of the day.

LINZESS is contraindicated in pediatric patients less than 2 years of age. In neonatal mice, linaclotide increased fluid secretion as a consequence of age-dependent elevated GC-C agonism resulting in mortality within the first 24 hours due to dehydration. There was no age-dependent trend in GC-C intestinal expression in a clinical study of children 2 to less than 18 years of age; however, there are insufficient data available on GC-C intestinal expression in children less than 2 years of age to assess the risk of developing diarrhea and its potentially serious consequences in these patients. The safety and effectiveness of LINZESS in patients less than 18 years of age have not been established.

LINZESS is not a laxative; it is the first medicine approved by the FDA in a class called GC-C agonists. LINZESS contains a peptide called linaclotide that activates the GC-C receptor in the intestine. Activation of GC-C is thought to result in increased intestinal fluid secretion and accelerated transit and a decrease in the activity of pain-sensing nerves in the intestine. The clinical relevance of the effect on pain fibers, which is based on nonclinical studies, has not been established.

In the United States, Ironwood and AbbVie co-develop and co-commercialize LINZESS for the treatment of adults with IBS-C or CIC. In Europe, AbbVie markets linaclotide under the brand name CONSTELLA® for the treatment of adults with moderate to severe IBS-C. In Japan, Ironwood's partner, Astellas, markets linaclotide under the brand name LINZESS for the treatment of adults with IBS-C or CIC. Ironwood also has partnered with AstraZeneca for development and commercialization of LINZESS in China, and with AbbVie for development and commercialization of linaclotide in all other territories worldwide.

LINZESS Important Safety Information

INDICATIONS AND USAGE

LINZESS (linaclotide) is indicated in adults for the treatment of both irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) and chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING: RISK OF SERIOUS DEHYDRATION IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OF AGE

LINZESS is contraindicated in patients less than 2 years of age. In nonclinical studies in neonatal mice, administration of a single, clinically relevant adult oral dose of linaclotide caused deaths due to dehydration.

Contraindications

LINZESS is contraindicated in patients less than 2 years of age due to the risk of serious dehydration.
LINZESS is contraindicated in patients with known or suspected mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction.

Warnings and Precautions

Pediatric Risk

LINZESS is contraindicated in patients less than 2 years of age. In neonatal mice, linaclotide increased fluid secretion as a consequence of age-dependent elevated GC-C agonism resulting in mortality within the first 24 hours due to dehydration. There was no age-dependent trend in GC-C intestinal expression in a clinical study of children 2 to less than 18 years of age; however, there are insufficient data available on GC-C intestinal expression in children less than 2 years of age to assess the risk of developing diarrhea and its potentially serious consequences in these patients. The safety and effectiveness of LINZESS in patients less than 18 years of age have not been established.

Diarrhea

Diarrhea was the most common adverse reaction in LINZESS-treated patients in the pooled IBS-C and CIC double-blind placebo-controlled trials. The incidence of diarrhea was similar in the IBS-C and CIC populations. Severe diarrhea was reported in 2% of 145 mcg and 290 mcg LINZESS-treated patients, and in <1% of 72 mcg LINZESS-treated CIC patients. If severe diarrhea occurs, dosing should be suspended and the patient rehydrated.

Common Adverse Reactions (incidence ≥2% and greater than placebo)

In IBS-C clinical trials: diarrhea (20% vs 3% placebo), abdominal pain (7% vs 5%), flatulence (4% vs 2%), headache (4% vs 3%), viral gastroenteritis (3% vs 1%) and abdominal distension (2% vs 1%).
In CIC trials of a 145 mcg dose: diarrhea (16% vs 5% placebo), abdominal pain (7% vs 6%), flatulence (6% vs 5%), upper respiratory tract infection (5% vs 4%), sinusitis (3% vs 2%) and abdominal distension (3% vs 2%). In a CIC trial of a 72 mcg dose: diarrhea (19% vs 7% placebo) and abdominal distension (2% vs <1%).
