Jazz Pharmaceuticals Announces Second Quarter 2009 Financial Results

- Net Product Sales Reach Record $26.5 Million

PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: JAZZ) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009.

Total revenues for the second quarter were $37.3 million, compared to $15.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Revenues for the second quarter included a $10.0 million milestone payment from UCB Pharma Limited that was received in July 2008 and recognized as revenue when the last patient completed the second JZP-6 Phase III clinical study in April 2009. XYREM® (sodium oxybate) oral solution net sales for the second quarter were $22.4 million, an increase from net sales of $17.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. Net sales of once-daily LUVOX CR® (fluvoxamine maleate) Extended-Release Capsules were $4.1 million for the second quarter compared to net sales of $3.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

“We are very pleased to see steadily increasing numbers of narcolepsy patients receiving the meaningful therapeutic benefits of appropriate XYREM therapy,” said Robert Myers, President. “In the second quarter of 2009, we saw all-time record numbers of XYREM prescriptions filled and XYREM bottles shipped to patients, representing the continued growth and acceptance of XYREM treatment for narcolepsy patients.”

Research and development expenses for the second quarter were $11.2 million, compared to $21.9 million for the second quarter 2008 and $11.4 million for the first quarter 2009. Research and development expenses reflect primarily the expenses relating to the Phase III clinical activities for the JZP-6 program studying sodium oxybate for the treatment of fibromyalgia. On June 24, 2009, Jazz Pharmaceuticals announced that the results of its second Phase III clinical trial of the JZP-6 product candidate were positive and consistent with the results of the first Phase III study, and that JZP-6 achieved its primary endpoint in both Phase III studies.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter 2009 were $13.7 million, compared to $34.1 million for the second quarter 2008 and $14.2 million for the first quarter 2009. Higher spending in 2008 was primarily due to spending in connection with the launch of LUVOX CR.

Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ net income for the second quarter 2009 was $2.2 million, compared to a net loss of $51.9 million for the second quarter of 2008.

Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ unrestricted cash and cash equivalents balance as of June 30, 2009 was $15.8 million. In July 2009 Jazz Pharmaceuticals raised $7.0 million in a private placement and paid $14.6 million in accrued interest to the holders of its senior secured notes. Jazz Pharmaceuticals believes that it has cured all material defaults under the agreement governing the notes, and that it has sufficient cash to fund its operations and pay its obligations on an ongoing basis.

“I am tremendously proud of the accomplishments of the company during the second quarter. We reported product sales exceeding a $100 million annual run-rate and completed our second Phase III trial of sodium oxybate for the treatment of fibromyalgia, reporting positive top-line results in June,” said Bruce Cozadd, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “These accomplishments enabled the company to complete a financing and repay our past-due interest in July. We are now positioned to continue our improving financial performance while preparing for a New Drug Application that we expect to submit to the Food and Drug Administration later this year for JZP-6.”

Jazz Pharmaceuticals is issuing full-year 2009 guidance:

 

   

Total revenues are expected to be $112 to $122 million

 

   

Net sales for XYREM are expected to be $85 to $90 million

 

   

Net sales for LUVOX CR are expected to be $15 to $18 million

 

   

Contract revenues and royalties are expected to be $12 to $14 million

 

   

Gross margin for the second half of 2009 is expected to remain at approximately 90 percent

 

   

Research and development expenses are expected to be $35 to $45 million

 

   

Selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to remain at about $14 million per quarter for the rest of 2009

“Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

This press release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements related to increasing numbers of narcolepsy patients receiving Xyrem therapy, Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ belief that it has cured all material defaults under the agreement governing its senior secured notes and that it will be able to comply with the agreement on an ongoing basis, Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ continued improving financial performance, the expected New Drug Application submission date for the JZP-6 product candidate and Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ full-year 2009 guidance. These forward-looking statements are based on the company’s current expectations and inherently involve significant risks and uncertainties. Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward looking statements as a result of these risks and uncertainties, which include, without limitation, risks related to: Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ ability to increase sales of XYREM and LUVOX CR; Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ dependence on single source suppliers and manufacturers; the uncertain and time-consuming regulatory approval process for JZP-6; Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ cash flow estimates and the potential need to raise additional funds; Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ ability to use its net operating losses to offset taxes; competition; the holders of the senior secured notes may not agree that all material defaults under the agreement governing the senior secured notes have been cured and may attempt to accelerate the notes and declare all of the notes to be immediately due and payable, in which event Jazz Pharmaceuticals could be required to seek protection under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ future financial performance and financial position; and those risks detailed from time-to-time under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports, including in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 filed by Jazz Pharmaceuticals with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 7, 2009. Jazz Pharmaceuticals undertakes no duty or obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this release as a result of new information, future events or changes in its expectations.
