ALKERMES PLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS — (Unaudited)

 

1. THE COMPANY

 

Alkermes plc (the “Company”) is a fully integrated, global biopharmaceutical company that applies its scientific expertise and proprietary technologies to develop innovative medicines that improve patient outcomes. The Company has a diversified portfolio of more than 20 commercial drug products and a substantial clinical pipeline of product candidates that address central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders such as addiction, schizophrenia and depression. Headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, Alkermes plc has a research and development (“R&D”) center in Waltham, Massachusetts; R&D and manufacturing facilities in Athlone, Ireland; and manufacturing facilities in Gainesville, Georgia and Wilmington, Ohio.

 

On September 16, 2011, the business of Alkermes, Inc. and the drug technologies business (“EDT”) of Elan Corporation, plc (“Elan”) were combined under the Company (this combination is referred to as the “Business Combination”, the “acquisition of EDT” or the” EDT acquisition”) in a transaction accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Alkermes, Inc. treated as the accounting acquirer. As a result, the historical financial statements of Alkermes, Inc. are included in the comparative periods. Use of the terms such as “us,” “we,” “our,” “Alkermes” or the “Company” is meant to refer to Alkermes plc and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where the context makes clear that the time period being referenced is prior to September 16, 2011, in which case such terms shall refer to Alkermes, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Prior to September 16, 2011, Alkermes, Inc. was an independent pharmaceutical company incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market under the symbol “ALKS.”

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 are unaudited and have been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with the audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2012. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”) (commonly referred to as “GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, that are necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the reported periods.

 

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto of Alkermes, which are contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2012, which has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of the Company’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Alkermes plc and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Alkermes Ireland Holdings Limited, Alkermes Pharma Ireland Limited, Alkermes U.S. Holdings, Inc., Alkermes, Inc., Eagle Holdings USA, Inc., Alkermes Gainesville LLC, Alkermes Controlled Therapeutics, Inc., Alkermes Europe, Ltd., Alkermes Finance Ireland Limited, Alkermes Finance S.A R.L., Alkermes Finance Ireland (No. 2) Limited and Alkermes Science One Limited. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

ALKERMES PLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments and methodologies, including those related to revenue recognition and related allowances, its collaborative relationships, clinical trial expenses, the valuation of inventory, impairment and amortization of intangibles and long-lived assets, share-based compensation, income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, valuation of investments and derivative instruments, litigation and restructuring charges. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company changed the way in which revenue is recognized on VIVITROL® product sales. Prior to August 1, 2012, the Company did not have sufficient history to reasonably estimate returns related to VIVITROL shipments and therefore, the Company deferred the recognition of revenue on shipments of VIVITROL until the product left the distribution channel. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, it was determined there was sufficient history to reliably estimate returns, and revenue on the sales of VIVITROL is now recognized upon delivery to customers, which is the point in time the customer assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. This change in the method of revenue recognition resulted in a one-time $1.7 million increase to “Product sales, net,” which was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

 

Based on this revised revenue recognition policy, a reserve is now estimated for future product returns on VIVITROL gross product sales. This estimate is based on historical return rates as well as specifically identified anticipated returns due to known business conditions and product expiry dates. Return amounts are recorded as a deduction to arrive at VIVITROL product sales, net. Once VIVITROL is returned, it is destroyed. At September 30, 2012, the product return reserve is estimated to be 2% of product sales.

 

Segment Information

 

The Company operates as one business segment, which is the business of developing, manufacturing and commercializing medicines designed to yield better therapeutic outcomes and improve the lives of patients with serious diseases. The Company’s chief decision maker, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, reviews the Company’s operating results on an aggregate basis and manages the Company’s operations as a single operating unit.

 

Reclassifications

 

An amount equal to $3.1 million that was previously classified as “Proceeds from the issuance of ordinary shares under share-based compensation arrangements” has been reclassified to “Employee taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows to conform to current period presentation.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard-setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance related to the presentation of comprehensive income. This accounting standard: (1) eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity; (2) requires the consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive income; and (3) requires an entity to present reclassification adjustments on the face of the financial statements from other comprehensive income to net income. The amendments in this accounting standard do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income, nor do the amendments affect how earnings per share is calculated or presented. This standard is required to be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011. As this accounting standard only requires enhanced disclosure, the adoption of this standard did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

3. ACQUISITIONS

 

On September 16, 2011, the Company acquired EDT from Elan in a transaction accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations, in exchange for $500.0 million in cash and 31.9 million ordinary shares of Alkermes Inc., valued at $525.1 million based on a stock price of $16.46 per share on the acquisition date. EDT developed and manufactured pharmaceutical products that deliver clinical benefits to patients using EDT’s experience and proprietary drug technologies, including the oral controlled release platform (“OCR”) and the bioavailability enhancement platform, including EDT’s NanoCrystal® technology. The Company acquired EDT to diversify its commercialized product portfolio and pipeline candidates, enhance its financial resources in order to invest in its proprietary drug candidates, pursue additional growth opportunities and reduce its cost of capital.

 

The purchase price allocation resulted in the following amounts being allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date based upon their respective fair values summarized below (in thousands):

At September 30, 2012, the Company believed that the unrealized losses on its available-for-sale investments were temporary. The investments with unrealized losses consisted primarily of corporate debt securities. In making the determination that the decline in fair value of these securities was temporary, the Company considered various factors, including but not limited to: the length of time each security was in an unrealized loss position; the extent to which fair value was less than cost; financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuers; and the Company’s intent not to sell these securities and the assessment that it is more likely than not that the Company would not be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost basis.

 

The Company’s investment in Acceleron Pharma, Inc. (“Acceleron”) was $8.7 million at September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, which was recorded within “Other assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company accounts for its investment in Acceleron under the cost method as Acceleron is a privately-held company over which the Company does not exercise significant influence. The Company will continue to monitor this investment to evaluate whether any decline in its value has occurred that would be other-than-temporary, based on the implied value from any recent rounds of financing completed by Acceleron, market prices of comparable public companies and general market conditions.

 

The Company’s investment in Civitas Therapeutics, Inc. (“Civitas”) was $1.4 million and $2.0 million at September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, respectively, which was recorded within “Other assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company accounts for its investment in Civitas under the equity method as the Company has an approximately 11% ownership position in Civitas, has a seat on the board of directors and believes it may be able to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of Civitas. During the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded a reduction in its investment in Civitas of $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, which represented the Company’s proportionate share of Civitas’ net losses for these periods.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2012, there was one investment in corporate debt securities transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 as trading in this security increased to a level such that the fair value for the security could be derived from a quoted price in an active market. There were no transfers of any securities from Level 1 to Level 2 during the six months ended September 30, 2012.

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2012, there was one investment in corporate debt securities and one investment in international government agency debt securities that were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 as trading in these securities resumed during the period. Also, during the six months ended September 30, 2012, there were two investments in corporate debt securities that were transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 as trading in these securities ceased during the period.

 

The Company’s international government agency debt securities and corporate debt securities classified as Level 2 were initially valued at the transaction price and subsequently valued, at the end of each reporting period, utilizing market observable data. The market observable data includes reportable trades, benchmark yields, credit spreads, broker/dealer quotes, bids, offers, current spot rates and other industry and economic events. The Company validates the prices developed using the market observable data by obtaining market values from other pricing sources, analyzing pricing data in certain instances and confirming that the relevant markets are active.

 

The Company’s Level 3 securities consisted of two corporate debt securities that were not currently trading, and a third-party pricing service was used to determine the estimated fair value of these securities. The third-party pricing service develops its estimate of fair value through a proprietary model using variables including reportable trades and last trade date, bids and offers, trading frequency, benchmark yields, credit spreads and other industry and economic events. The Company validates the prices provided by its third-party pricing service by reviewing their pricing methods and matrices, obtaining market values from other pricing sources, analyzing pricing data in certain instances and confirming the activity in the relevant markets. After completing its validation procedures, the Company did not adjust or override any fair value measurements provided by its pricing services at September 30, 2012.

 

In September and December 2011, the Company entered into interest rate cap agreements, and, in September 2011, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement. These agreements are described in greater detail in Note 11, Derivative Instruments. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate cap and interest rate swap agreements were based on an income approach, which excludes accrued interest, and takes into consideration then-current interest rates and then-current creditworthiness of the Company or the counterparty, as applicable.

 

The carrying amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the remaining financial instruments not currently recognized at fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets consist of the $300.0 million, seven-year term loan bearing interest at three-Month LIBOR plus 3.5% (“Term Loan B-1”) and the $75.0 million, four-year term loan bearing interest at three-Month LIBOR plus 3.0% (“Term Loan B-2” and together with Term Loan B-1, the “New Term Loan Facility”). The estimated fair value of these term loans, which was based on quoted market price indications (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy), and may not be representative of actual values that could have been or will be realized in the future at September 30, 2012, was as follows:

In September 2012, the Company entered into the New Term Loan Facility to refinance its $310.0 million first lien term loan facility (the “First Lien Term Loan”) and $140.0 million second lien term loan facility (the “Second Lien Term Loan” and, together with the First Lien Term Loan, the “Term Loans”).  The First Lien Term Loan was amended and restated to, among other things, provide for new term loans under the New Term Loan Facility, including Term Loan B-1 and Term Loan B-2, the proceeds of which, together with cash on hand, were used to repay the balance of the Term Loans (the “Debt Refinancing”). Term Loan B-1 has a principal balance of $300.0 million, matures on September 25, 2019, bears interest at three-month LIBOR plus 3.5% and was issued with an original issue discount of $3.0 million. Term Loan B-2 has a principal balance of $75.0 million, matures on September 25, 2016, bears interest at three-month LIBOR plus 3.0% and was issued with an original issue discount of $0.4 million. Under the New Term Loan Facility, LIBOR for both tranches is subject to an interest rate floor of 1.0%. Term Loan B-1 amortizes in equal quarterly amounts of 0.25% of the original principal amount of the loan, with the balance payable at maturity. Term Loan B-2 amortizes in equal quarterly amounts of 1.25% of the original principal amount of the loan for the first three years after funding, with the balance payable at maturity. The New Term Loan Facility is guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Guarantors”) and is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets and properties of the Company and the Guarantors (subject to certain exceptions and limitations).

Required quarterly principal payments of $0.8 million on Term Loan B-1 and $0.9 million on Term Loan B-2 begin on December 31, 2012. Commencing with the completion of the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, the Company is subject to mandatory prepayments of principal if certain excess cash flow thresholds, as defined in the New Term Loan Facility, are met. The Company may make prepayments of principal without premium or penalty, however, in the event that, prior to September 25, 2013, the Company prepays any of Term Loan B-1 or Term Loan B-2 pursuant to repricing transaction or an amendment of the New Term Loan Facility that results in a repricing transaction, the Company will be subject to a prepayment premium of 1% of the amount of the term loan being repaid or the aggregate amount of the applicable term loan outstanding immediately prior to such amendment.

 

The New Term Loan Facility has incremental facility capacity in an amount of $140.0 million, plus additional amounts as long as the Company meets certain conditions, including a specified leverage ratio. The New Term Loan Facility includes a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions and baskets, impose operating and financial restrictions on the Company and certain of its subsidiaries.  The New Term Loan Facility also contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants at September 30, 2012.

 

The Debt Refinancing was a restructuring of the Term Loans and involved multiple lenders who were considered members of a loan syndicate. In determining whether the Debt Refinancing was to be accounted for as a debt extinguishment or modification, the Company considered whether creditors remained the same or changed and whether the change in debt terms was substantial. The terms of the New Term Loan Facility were considered substantially different from the original Term Loans if the present value of the cash flows under the New Term Loan Facility was at least 10% different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the Term Loans (commonly referred to as the “10% Test”). The Company performed a separate 10% Test for each individual creditor participating in the loan syndication. The loans of creditors who did not participate in the New Term Loan Facility were accounted for as a debt extinguishment.

 

As the New Term Loan Facility has a prepayment option exercisable at any time, the Company assumed the prepayment option was exercised immediately on the date of the refinancing for purposes of applying the 10% Test. When there was a change in principal balance for individual creditors in the Debt Refinancing, in applying the 10% Test, the Company used the cash flows related to the lowest common principal balance between the Term Loans and the New Term Loan Facility (commonly referred to as the “Net Method”). Under the Net Method, any principal in excess of a creditor’s rollover money was treated as a new, separate debt issuance, and any decrease in principal was treated as a partial extinguishment of debt.

 

New costs paid to creditors and third parties in connection with the Debt Refinancing were allocated to the New Term Loan Facility and then further allocated to each creditor. Once these costs were allocated to the individual creditors, an analysis of each creditor was performed and a determination made as to whether the refinancing was accounted for as a debt extinguishment or modification under the 10% Test. For debt considered to be extinguished, the unamortized deferred financing costs and unamortized original issue discount associated with the extinguished debt were expensed. For debt considered to be modified, the unamortized deferred financing costs and unamortized original issue discount associated with the modified debt continue to be amortized, new financing costs were expensed and new third-party fees were capitalized. For new creditors in the Debt Refinancing, new financing costs and original issue discount fees were capitalized and will be amortized over the estimated repayment period of the new debt.

 

The Debt Refinancing resulted in a $12.1 million charge in the three months ended September 30, 2012, which was included in “Interest expense” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income and was comprised of the following (in thousands):

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

At September 30, 2012, the Company’s balance of unamortized deferred financing costs and unamortized original issue discount costs were $4.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the estimated repayment period of the new debt using the effective interest method. During the six months ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, the Company had amortization expense of $3.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively, related to deferred financing costs and original issue discount.

 

11. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

 

In December 2011, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement with Morgan Stanley Capital Services LLC (“MSCS”) at a cost of $0.1 million to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in the three-month LIBOR rate at which the Company’s long-term debt bear interest. The interest rate cap agreement expires in December 2013, has a notional value of $160.0 million and is not designated as a hedging instrument. The Company recorded an immaterial amount of loss as “Other income, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income due to the increase in value of this contract during the six months ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, this contract has an immaterial balance included within “Other assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

In September 2011, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement with HSBC Bank USA at a cost of less than $0.1 million to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in the three-month LIBOR rate at which the Company’s long-term debt bear interest. The interest rate cap agreement became effective on September 16, 2011, expires in December 2012, has a notional value of $65.0 million and is not designated as a hedging instrument. The Company recorded an immaterial amount of loss within “Other income, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income due to the decline in value of this contract during the six months ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, this contract has no value.

 

In September 2011, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with MSCS to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in the three-month LIBOR rate at which the Company’s long-term debt bear interest. The interest rate swap agreement becomes effective in December 2012, expires in December 2014 and has a notional value of $65.0 million. This contract was designated as a cash flow hedge, however, in connection with the Debt Refinancing, the cash flow hedge was deemed to no longer be effective for accounting purposes and accordingly, the Company reclassified its unrealized losses of $0.6 million to “Interest expense” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.  At September 30, 2012, the interest rate swap was no longer designated as a cash flow hedge. The following table summarizes the beginning and ending accumulated derivative loss for the interest rate swap:

14. INCOME TAXES

 

The Company recorded an income tax provision of $0.4 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, and an income tax provision of $3.7 million and $3.6 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The tax provision of $0.4 million and $1.2 million in the three and six months ended September 30, 2012 primarily related to foreign taxes on income and was prepared on a discrete quarterly and year-to-date basis, respectively, as the yearly effective tax rate was not considered a reliable estimate for the current quarter and year-to-date provision. The income tax provision in the three and six months ended September 30, 2011 primarily related to a $13.2 million current tax expense on the taxable transfer of the BYDUREON® intellectual property from the U.S. to Ireland and a deferred tax benefit of $9.5 million in connection with the Business Combination, as the Company recorded a U.S. deferred tax liability in purchase accounting allowing for the partial release of an existing valuation allowance.

 

The Company records a deferred tax asset or liability based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of its assets and liabilities, as measured by enacted jurisdictional tax rates assumed to be in effect when these differences reverse. As of September 30, 2012, the Company determined, based on the weight of all available evidence, that it is not more likely than not that its remaining U.S. and Irish deferred tax assets will be realized and hence a valuation allowance was recorded on the net deferred tax asset.

 

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

From time to time, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not aware of any current proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.

Executive Summary

 

On September 16, 2011, in connection with the Business Combination, we paid Elan $500.0 million in cash and issued Elan 31.9 million ordinary shares, which had a fair value of $525.1 million on the closing date of the Merger, for the EDT business. The Business Combination was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations with Alkermes, Inc. being treated as the accounting acquirer under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) (“GAAP”). As a result, the operating results of Alkermes, Inc. are included for all periods being presented, whereas the operating results of the acquiree, EDT, are included only after the date of acquisition.

 

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2012, was $16.7 million or $0.13 per ordinary share— basic and diluted, as compared to a net loss of $22.3 million, or $0.22 per ordinary share— basic and diluted for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Net income for the six months ended September 30, 2012, was $5.7 million or $0.04 per ordinary share— basic and diluted, as compared to a net loss of $35.5 million, or $0.36 per ordinary share— basic and diluted for the six months ended September 30, 2011.

 

Total revenues increased by 72% and 106% during the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to the expansion of our product portfolio as a result of the Business Combination. Operating expenses increased by 42% and 50% during the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due the inclusion of expenses associated with the former EDT business and increased clinical study costs due to the advancement of pipeline candidates into later stages of development, partially offset by the elimination of one-time merger-related costs related to the Business Combination.

 

In September 2012, we entered into a new term loan facility, which includes a $300.0 million, seven-year term loan bearing interest at three-month LIBOR plus 3.5% (“Term Loan B-1”) and a $75.0 million, four-year term loan bearing interest at three-month LIBOR plus 3.0% (“Term Loan B-2” and together with Team Loan B-1, the “New Term Loan Facility”). The New Term Loan Facility refinanced our $310.0 million first lien term loan facility (the “First Lien Term Loan”) and the $140.0 million second lien term loan facility (the “Second Lien Term Loan” and, together with the First Lien Term Loan, the “Term Loans”) and reduced our overall outstanding debt in the process to $375.0 million (the “Debt Refinancing”). Under the New Term Loan Facility, LIBOR for both tranches is subject to an interest rate floor of 1.0%. We expect that the refinancing transaction will result in savings of approximately $18.0 million in cash interest annually. The Debt Refinancing resulted in a charge of $12.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2012, which was recorded within “Interest expense” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

KEY COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS

 

The following five principal commercial products in our commercial product portfolio are expected to contribute meaningfully to our revenues.

 

RISPERDAL CONSTA and INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION

 

RISPERDAL CONSTA and INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION, which are two long-acting atypical antipsychotics, incorporate our injectable extended-release microsphere and NanoCrystal technology, respectively. They are products of Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Janssen Pharmaceutica International, a division of Cilag International AG (“Janssen”). RISPERDAL CONSTA is the first and only long-acting, atypical antipsychotic approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for the treatment of schizophrenia and for the treatment of bipolar I disorder. INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION is a once-monthly, long-acting injectable atypical antipsychotic approved by the FDA for the acute and maintenance treatment of schizophrenia in adults.

 

AMPYRA/FAMPYRA

 

Dalfampridine extended-release tablets are marketed and sold in the U.S. under the trade name AMPYRA by Acorda. Prolonged-release fampridine tablets are marketed and sold outside the U.S. under the trade name FAMPYRA by Biogen Idec. AMPYRA was approved by the FDA in January 2010 as a treatment to improve walking in patients with MS as demonstrated by an increase in walking speed. Efficacy was shown in people with all four major types of MS (relapsing remitting, secondary progressive, progressive relapsing and primary progressive). It is the first and, currently, only product to be approved for this indication. The product incorporates our OCR technology. FAMPYRA is currently being sold by Biogen Idec in select countries outside of the U.S. AMPYRA and FAMPYRA are manufactured by us.

 

BYDUREON

 

We collaborated with Amylin on the development of a once-weekly formulation of exenatide, BYDUREON, for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. BYDUREON, a once-weekly formulation of exenatide, the active ingredient in Amylin’s BYETTA® (exenatide), uses our polymer-based microsphere injectable extended-release technology.

 

On August 8, 2012, Bristol-Myers successfully completed its acquisition of Amylin. Following the acquisition, Amylin became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bristol-Myers. On August 9, 2012, Bristol-Myers and AstraZeneca announced the expansion of their diabetes collaboration to include the co-development and marketing of Amylin’s portfolio of products, including BYDUREON.

 

VIVITROL

 

VIVITROL is the first and only once-monthly injectable medication for the treatment of alcohol dependence and the prevention of relapse to opioid dependence, following opioid detoxification. The medication uses our polymer-based microsphere injectable extended-release technology to deliver and maintain therapeutic medication levels in the body through just one injection every four weeks. We developed, and

 

22



Table of Contents

 

currently market and sell, VIVITROL in the U.S., and Cilag sells VIVITROL in Russia and other countries in the Commonwealth of Independent States (“CIS”).

 

Other Commercial Products

 

We expect revenues from our other commercial products will decrease in the future due to existing and expected competition from generic manufacturers, as discussed in greater detail herein.

 

KEY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS

 

We also have several proprietary and partnered product candidates in various stages of development.

 

We are studying ALKS 9070 for the treatment of schizophrenia. ALKS 9070 is designed to provide once-monthly dosing of a medication that converts in vivo into aripiprazole, a molecule that is commercially available under the name ABILIFY®. ALKS 9070 is our first product candidate to leverage our proprietary LinkeRx™ product platform. A phase 3 trial to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ALKS 9070 in approximately 690 patients experiencing acute exacerbation of schizophrenia is currently on-going, and the clinical data from this study, expected by the end of calendar-year 2013, will form the basis of a New Drug Application (“NDA”) to the FDA for ALKS 9070 for the treatment of schizophrenia.

 

ALKS 5461 is a combination of ALKS 33 and buprenorphine that we are developing to be a non-addictive therapy for the treatment of major depressive disorder (“MDD”) in patients who have an inadequate response to standard antidepressant therapies. ALKS 5461 has also been evaluated for the treatment of cocaine dependence. A phase 2 study is currently on-going to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ALKS 5461 when administered once daily for four weeks in approximately 130 patients with MDD who have inadequate response to standard antidepressant therapies. Data from this study are expected in the first half of calendar year 2013.

 

ALKS 33 is an oral opioid modulator characterized by limited hepatic metabolism and durable pharmacologic activity in modulating brain opioid receptors. ALKS 33 is being evaluated as a potential treatment for alcohol dependence; there are currently no ongoing clinical trials of ALKS 33 for the treatment of alcohol dependence.

 

ZOHYDRO ER™ (hydrocodone bitartrate extended-release capsules) is a novel, oral, single-entity (without acetaminophen), controlled-release formulation of hydrocodone in development by Zogenix, Inc. (“Zogenix”) for the U.S. market. ZOHYDRO ER utilizes our oral controlled-release technology, which potentially enables longer-lasting and more consistent pain relief with fewer daily doses than the commercially available formulations of hydrocodone. In May 2012, Zogenix announced that it submitted an NDA to the FDA for ZOHYDRO ER, and in July 2012, Zogenix announced that the FDA accepted for review the NDA for ZOHYDRO ER. The FDA has assigned a target action date of March 1, 2013 for the ZOHYDRO ER NDA. We have also entered into a license and distribution agreement with Paladin Labs Inc. in respect of ZOHYDRO ER in Canada. We will earn manufacturing revenues and a royalty on U.S. and Canadian sales of ZOHYDRO ER, if approved and when commercialized. We have maintained all rights to the product in territories outside the U.S. and Canada and will seek to develop and license the product through commercial partnerships in those territories.

Manufacturing fees are earned for the manufacture of products under arrangements with our collaborators when product is shipped to them at an agreed upon price. Royalties are earned on our collaborators’ sales of products that incorporate our technologies. Royalties are generally recognized in the period the products are sold by our collaborators.

 

Under our RISPERDAL CONSTA supply and license agreements with Janssen, we earn manufacturing revenues at 7.5% of Janssen’s unit net sales price of RISPERDAL CONSTA and royalty revenues at 2.5% of Janssen’s net sales of RISPERDAL CONSTA. The decrease in RISPERDAL CONSTA manufacturing and royalty revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, was primarily due to a 25% decrease in the quantity shipped to Janssen and a 10% decrease in royalty revenues. The decrease in royalty revenues was due to a decrease in Janssen’s end-market sales of RISPERDAL CONSTA from $390.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $351.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in RISPERDAL CONSTA manufacturing and royalty revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the six months ended September 30, 2011, was primarily due to a 29% decrease in the quantity shipped to Janssen, and an 11% decrease in royalty revenues. The decrease in royalty revenues was due to a decrease in Janssen’s end-market sales of RISPERDAL CONSTA from $793.6 million during the six months ended September 30, 2011 to $705.8 million during the six months ended September 30, 2012.

 

We expect revenues from RISPERDAL CONSTA and INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION, our long-acting atypical antipsychotic franchise, to continue to grow, as INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION is launched around the world. Under our INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION agreement with Janssen, we earn royalties on end-market sales of INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION of 5% up to the first $250 million in calendar-year sales; 7% on calendar-year sales of between $250 million and $500 million; and 9% on calendar-year sales exceeding $500 million. The royalty rate resets at the beginning of each calendar-year to 5%. A number of companies, including us, are working to develop products to treat schizophrenia and/or bipolar disorder that may compete with RISPERDAL CONSTA and INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION. Increased competition may lead to reduced unit sales of RISPERDAL CONSTA and INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION, as well as increasing pricing pressure. Given that RISPERDAL CONSTA is covered by a patent until 2021 in the EU and 2023 in the U.S. and INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION is covered by a patent until 2022 in the EU and 2019 in the U.S., we do not anticipate any generic versions in the near-term for either of these products.

 

The increase in manufacturing and/or royalty revenues from TRICOR 145, AMPYRA/FAMPYRA, RITALIN LA/FOCALIN XR, INVEGA SUSTENNA/XEPLION, VERELAN and the other manufacturing and royalty revenues for the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, were due to the addition of the portfolio of commercialized products from the former EDT business. We anticipate manufacturing and royalty revenue erosion in the TRICOR 145 and RITALIN LA/FOCALIN XR franchise for fiscal year 2013 due to the assumed entry of generic competition into the market in late-calendar 2012.

 

Included in other manufacturing and royalty revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2012 is $20.0 million of revenue related to the exercise of an option to license certain of our intellectual property, not used in our key clinical development programs or commercial products.

(1)                    During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we changed the method by which we recognized revenue on VIVITROL product sales. Prior to August 1, 2012, we did not have sufficient history to reasonably estimate returns related to VIVITROL shipments, and therefore we deferred the recognition of revenue on shipments of VIVITROL until the product left the distribution channel. As we now have sufficient history to reliably estimate returns, we recognize revenue on the sales of VIVITROL upon delivery to our customers and

provide a reserve for future returns. This change in the method of revenue recognition resulted in a one-time $1.7 million increase to product sales, net, which was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

 

The increase in product sales, gross for the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, was due to a 42% and 34% increase in the number of units sold, respectively. We expect VIVITROL sales to continue to grow as we continue to penetrate the opioid dependence indication market in the U.S.

 

We anticipate that Cilag will increase sales of VIVITROL in Russia and the CIS, which are recorded as manufacturing and royalty revenues. In addition, there exists the potential to launch the product in other countries around the world. A number of companies, including us, are working to develop products to treat addiction, including alcohol and opioid dependence, that may compete with VIVITROL, which may negatively impact future sales of VIVITROL. Increased competition may lead to reduced unit sales of VIVITROL, as well as increasing pricing pressure. VIVITROL is covered by a patent that will expire in the U.S. in 2029 and in Europe in 2021 and, as such, we do not anticipate any generic versions of this product in the near-term.

R&D revenue is generally earned for services performed and milestones achieved under arrangements with our collaborators. The decrease in R&D revenue for the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, was primarily due to milestone payments we received during the three and six months ended September 30, 2011. In July 2011, we recognized a $7.0 million milestone payment earned upon the first sale of BYDUREON in the E.U. and, in April 2011, we recognized a $3.0 million milestone payment earned upon the receipt of regulatory approval for VIVITROL in Russia for the opioid dependence indication.
