Recent Highlights
Pipeline
Alvotech and its commercialization partner in the U.S., Teva Pharmaceuticals, announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved AVT02 (adalimumab-ryvk) for marketing in the U.S. an interchangeable biosimilar to Humira, under the tradename Simlandi. Simlandi is the first high-concentration, citrate-free biosimilar to Humira that has been granted interchangeability status by the FDA and will qualify for interchangeable exclusivity for the 40mg/0.4ml injection.
Alvotech and its respective commercialization partners announced approval of AVT04, a biosimilar to Stelara (ustekinumab) in Canada and the European Economic Area (EEA). AVT04 was launched in Canada by JAMP Pharma on March 1, 2024, under the tradename Jamteki. Launch of AVT04 in Japan is expected in May 2024 and in Europe in Q3 2024. The market entry date for the U.S. is February 21, 2025, pending FDA approval which is expected by April 16, 2024.
Alvotech announced positive top-line results from a pharmacokinetic (PK) study for AVT05, a biosimilar candidate to Simponi® and Simponi Aria® (golimumab). The study, which assessed the PK, safety and tolerability of AVT05 compared to Simponi in healthy adult subjects, met its primary endpoints. In 2023, combined worldwide revenues from sales of Simponi and Simponi Aria were about $2.2 billion [1].
Alvotech announced positive top-line results from a confirmatory study for AVT06, a proposed biosimilar to Eylea® (aflibercept). The confirmatory clinical study that compared AVT06 with Eylea in patients with neovascular (wet) Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) met its primary endpoint, with results demonstrating therapeutic equivalence with Eylea. In 2023 cumulative global sales of Eylea were about $5.9 billion [2].
Alvotech announced positive top-line results from a PK study for AVT03, a biosimilar candidate to Prolia® and Xgeva®, which both contain denosumab. The PK study met its primary endpoints. A confirmatory efficacy study for AVT03 in patients is currently underway, as well as a PK study comparing AVT03 to Xgeva® in healthy adult subjects. In 2023 cumulative global sales of Prolia and Xgeva were approximately $6.2 billion [3].
Corporate
Alvotech accepted an offer from a group of domestic and international investors for the sale of 10,127,132 of its ordinary shares for an approximate value of $166 million at a purchase price of $16.41 per share or ISK 2,250. Intended uses of the net proceeds are for general corporate purposes and working capital, to strengthen production capacity and to support expected biosimilars launches.
Alvotech announced the appointment of Christina Siniscalchi as interim Chief Quality Officer. Christina has for over ten years served in senior quality positions for Alvogen and its manufacturing site in Norwich, NY, most recently as Alvogen’s Chief Quality Officer, and previously worked at Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals.
Financial Results for Full Year 2023
Cash Position and Sources of Liquidity: As of December 31, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $11.2 million, excluding $26.1 million of restricted cash. In addition, the Company had borrowings of $960.2 million, including $38.0 million of current portion of borrowings. Giving effect to the sale of 10,127,132 of Alvotech ordinary shares for an approximate gross value of $166 million, the cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $172 million on a proforma basis as of December 31, 2023.
Product Revenue: Product revenue was $48.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $24.8 million for the same period in the prior year, reflecting increased sales volume in select European countries during 2023, almost doubling the product revenue from 2022.
License and Other Revenue: License and other revenue decreased by $15.5 million, which is primarily attributable to the recognition of $44.5 million research and development milestone during the same period in the prior year, due to the completion of the AVT04 main clinical program. This was partially offset by the recognition of $31.6 million research and development milestone during 2023 due to the CES completion of the AVT06 program. The remainder of the decrease is principally due to the net impact of the licensing arrangements changed during the year.
Cost of product revenue: Cost of product revenue was $160.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, as a result of the successful launch of AVT02 in select European countries, Canada and Australia. Cost of product revenue for the period is disproportionate relative to product revenue due to the timing of new launches and elevated production-related charges, resulting in higher costs than revenues recognized for the period. The Company expects this relationship to normalize with increased production from the scaling and expansion of new or recent launches. The Company estimates that the anticipated increase in sales volumes will result in a greater absorption of fixed manufacturing costs. Prior to the recognition of cost of product revenues, costs from pre-commercial manufacturing activities were reported as R&D expenses.
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $210.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $180.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by a charge of $18.5 million relating to the termination of the co-development agreement with Biosana for AVT23, and a $42.5 million increase in direct program expenses mainly from three biosimilar candidates, AVT03, AVT05 and AVT06, that entered clinical development in 2022. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $30.6 million primarily related to programs that have completed clinical phase, and non-recurrence of pre-commercial manufacturing activities.
General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses were $76.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $186.7 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in G&A expenses was primarily attributable to a $83.4 million non-cash share listing expense, and $22.9 million of transaction costs recognized as a result of the Business Combination, and a $13.4 million of IP-related legal expenses incurred during the year ended December 31, 2022. This decrease was partially offset by a $3.7 million net increase in other general administrative expenses due to incremental costs from operating as a public company. Lastly, the Company recognized $10.8 million of G&A expenses for share-based payments, resulting from the granting of Restricted Share Units (RSUs) during the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $6.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Share of net loss of joint venture and impairment loss on investment in joint venture: The increase by $4.6 million in share of net loss of joint venture year over year is due to an increase in losses incurred by the Joint Venture during the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to December 31, 2022. In 2023, an impairment of $21.5 million was recognized on the joint venture investment based on discussions between Alvotech and CCHN to buy back Alvotech's interests in the joint venture.
Finance income: Finance income was $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase is primarily driven by interest received on cash and cash equivalent held in our bank accounts.
Finance costs: Finance costs amounted to $267.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $188.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase is primarily related to a $49.2 million increase in interest on debt and borrowings due to the additional financing obtained since December 31, 2022, including the annualized impact of prior year financing, and a $35.4 million increase in fair value of derivative liabilities. This is partially offset by $16.0 million in charges related to the closing of the Business Combination in 2022.
Exchange rate differences: Exchange rate differences resulted in a loss of $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to a gain of $10.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by the movements in the exchange rate of foreign currencies, predominantly Icelandic krona and euros.
Income tax benefits: The income tax benefit increased by $61.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to the same period for 2022. This increase was mainly driven by $34.7 million deferred tax credit corresponding to an increase in operating losses and a $26.7 million favorable foreign currency impact on the strengthening of the Icelandic krona against the U.S. dollar, increasing the U.S. dollar value of Icelandic tax loss carry-forwards that the Company expects to fully utilize against future taxable profits.
Loss for the Period: Loss for the period was $551.7 million, or ($2.43) per share on a basic and diluted basis, for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to a loss of $513.6 million, or ($2.60) per share on a basic and diluted basis, for the same period in the prior year.
