Jazz Pharmaceuticals Announces Third Quarter 2009 Financial Results

 

   

Achieved Record Quarterly Net Product Sales of $30 Million

 

   

Raising Revenue Guidance for 2009

PALO ALTO, Calif., November 5, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: JAZZ) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009.

Total revenues for the third quarter of 2009 were $30.8 million, compared to $17.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. XYREM® (sodium oxybate) oral solution net sales for the third quarter of 2009 were $25.0 million, compared to $14.2 million for the third quarter of 2008, and represented a 12% sequential increase over net sales of $22.4 million for the second quarter of 2009. Net sales of once-daily LUVOX CR® (fluvoxamine maleate) extended-release capsules were $5.0 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $2.0 million for the third quarter 2008, and represented a 20% sequential increase over net sales of $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2009. Total revenues for the third quarter of 2009 also included $0.8 million in royalties and contract revenue.

“Our sales team delivered another solid quarter for us with record numbers of XYREM and LUVOX CR prescriptions and net sales” said Bob Myers, President of Jazz Pharmaceuticals.

Research and development expenses for the third quarter of 2009 were $7.6 million, compared to $12.1 million for the third quarter of 2008. This reduction from $11.2 million for the second quarter of 2009 was primarily due to the completion of the second Phase III pivotal clinical efficacy trial for JZP-6, sodium oxybate for the treatment of fibromyalgia, in June of 2009. Jazz Pharmaceuticals expects to submit a New Drug Application for JZP-6 by the end of 2009.

Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ net loss for the third quarter of 2009 was $1.7 million, compared to a net loss of $28.8 million for the third quarter of 2008.

Jazz Pharmaceuticals is increasing its full-year 2009 guidance for XYREM and LUVOX CR net sales, and tightening its guidance for R&D expenses:

 

     Prior Guidance    Updated Guidance

•        Total revenues

   $112 – 122 million    $122 – 127 million

•        XYREM net sales

   $85 – 90 million    $92 – 95 million

•        LUVOX CR net sales

•        Contract revenues and royalties

   $12 – 14 million    ~ $13 million

“We have made impressive strides in transforming our business in 2009,” said Bruce Cozadd, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Jazz Pharmaceuticals. “In the first nine months of 2008, we had net product sales of $45.8 million and an operating loss of $118.6 million. In the first nine months of 2009, we achieved net product sales of $77.8 million and operating income of $4.5 million. Our commercial business continues to grow and we look forward to submitting our NDA for JZP-6 next month.”
