EXELIXIS ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2013 FINANCIAL RESULTS
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA - August 6, 2013 - Exelixis, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXEL) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Q2 2013 Highlights and Recent Events
| |
• | Reported net product revenue for COMETRIQ® (cabozantinib) of $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2013. |
| |
• | Expanded the sales force to 14 representatives. |
| |
• | Initiated METEOR, a phase 3 pivotal trial comparing cabozantinib to everolimus in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who have experienced disease progression following treatment with at least one prior VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). The trial is expected to enroll 650 patients, and the primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary endpoint is overall survival (OS) and no cross-over will be allowed between the study arms. |
| |
• | Cabozantinib was the subject of nine presentations at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2013 Annual Meeting in June, including an oral presentation of data from the EXAM study, Exelixis' phase 3 pivotal trial in progressive, metastatic medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), as well as a poster discussion presentation of overall survival data from patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) in a non-randomized expansion (NRE) cohort of Exelixis' phase 2 randomized discontinuation trial. Additional presentations covered |
cabozantinib's potential activity in investigational studies of advanced urothelial carcinoma, metastatic uveal melanoma, and CRPC metastatic to the bone.
"We gained significant momentum in both commercial and development activities in the second quarter of 2013," said Michael M. Morrissey, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Exelixis. "While continuing to focus on enrollment of the COMET phase 3 pivotal trials as our top priority, we initiated the METEOR phase 3 pivotal trial in metastatic RCC and finalized planning for our phase 3 pivotal trial in metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In addition, the overall survival and post-hoc analyses from the phase 2 NRE metastatic CRPC cohort were presented at the ASCO Annual Meeting and those data continue to support the rationale for the COMET pivotal trials in metastatic CRPC, for which we continue to expect top-line data in 2014."
Net revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $11.9 million, compared to $7.8 million for the comparable period in 2012. The increase for the quarter was due to $4.0 million of net product revenue resulting from the sale of COMETRIQ, which became commercially available in the United States for the treatment of progressive, metastatic MTC in January, 2013.
Research and development expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $49.1 million, compared to $32.6 million for the comparable period in 2012. The increases were primarily due to increased clinical trial costs. The increase in clinical trial costs was primarily related to clinical trial activities for COMET-1, the phase 3 pivotal trial with the primary endpoint of overall survival in metastatic CRPC, as well as start-up costs incurred for the phase 3 pivotal trials for metastatic RCC and metastatic HCC.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $13.2 million, compared to $6.8 million for the comparable period in 2012. The increase was primarily due to an increase in expenses related to the sale of COMETRIQ, predominantly for consulting and outside services, as well as marketing expenses.
Other income (expense), net for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was a net expense of ($10.9) million compared to ($3.8) million in the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The increase in expense in 2013 compared to 2012 was primarily due to interest expense in connection with the $287.5 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2019 issued in August 2012. Included in interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was ($6.5) million of non-cash expense related to the accretion of the discount on both the 4.25% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2019 and the company's financing arrangement with Deerfield Management Company, L.P.
Net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was ($62.2) million, or ($0.34) per share, basic, compared to ($36.5) million, or ($0.25) per share, basic, for the comparable period in 2012. The net loss was primarily due to increases in research and development, selling, general and administrative and interest expenses, slightly offset by increased revenues, as described above, and lower restructuring charges.
Cash and cash equivalents, short- and long-term investments and short- and long-term restricted cash and investments totaled $524.3 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $634.0 million at December 31, 2012.
