Exelixis Announces Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update

- Total Revenues of $469.8 million, Cabozantinib Franchise U.S. Net Product Revenues of $409.6 million -

- GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.25, Non-GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.31 -

- Conference Call and Webcast Today at 5:00 PM Eastern Time -

Exelixis, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXEL) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2023 and provided an update on progress toward achieving key corporate objectives, as well as commercial, clinical and pipeline development milestones.

“In the second quarter of 2023, the Exelixis team continued to make steady progress both on our commercial business and our rapidly advancing pipeline,” said Michael M. Morrissey, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer, Exelixis. “It was another strong quarter for CABOMETYX®, which maintained its status as the leading tyrosine kinase inhibitor for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma, again driven by its use in combination with nivolumab in the first-line setting. Revenues from CABOMETYX and the broader cabozantinib franchise directly support the build-out of our differentiated pipeline, including zanzalintinib, our next-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and XB002, our most advanced antibody-drug conjugate. During and after the quarter, we completed enrollment in multiple expansion cohorts of the phase 1 STELLAR-001 study for zanzalintinib, progressed the ongoing phase 3 pivotal trials and furthered our plans for additional pivotal trials of the compound. We also continued to advance the phase 1 JEWEL-101 study for XB002, selecting the single-agent dose from the dose-escalation stage of the study and initiating the cohort expansion stage, with the goal of moving the program into full development before year end. Our clinical collaborations with Cybrexa and Sairopa also advanced, including Cybrexa’s recent clinical data update from the CBX-12 phase 1 program at the ASCO Annual Meeting in June.”

Dr. Morrissey continued: “As we move through the second half of this year, we have much to look forward to, including the readout of the phase 3 CONTACT-02 study of cabozantinib and atezolizumab in patients with prostate cancer, the next overall survival analysis from the phase 3 COSMIC-313 study evaluating the triplet regimen of cabozantinib in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in renal cell carcinoma, and potential presentations of new data from our pipeline compounds. We also look forward to providing additional details around our discovery and development strategy and activities at an R&D Day planned for Tuesday, December 12th in New York City. As always, I want to thank the Exelixis team for their commitment, hard work and contributions during the second quarter as we advanced our mission to help cancer patients recover stronger and live longer.”

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 were $469.8 million, as compared to $419.4 million for the comparable period in 2022.

Total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 included net product revenues of $409.6 million, as compared to $347.0 million for the comparable period in 2022. The increase in net product revenues was primarily due to an increase in sales volume and an increase in average net selling price.

Collaboration revenues, composed of license revenues and collaboration services revenues, were $60.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $72.4 million for the comparable period in 2022. The decrease in collaboration revenues was primarily related to decreases in the recognition of milestone-related revenues and development cost reimbursements earned, which were partially offset by higher royalty revenues for the sales of cabozantinib outside of the U.S. generated by Exelixis’ collaboration partners, Ipsen Pharma SAS and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited.

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 were $232.6 million, as compared to $199.5 million for the comparable period in 2022. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily related to increases in manufacturing costs to support Exelixis’ development candidates, personnel expenses, clinical trial costs and consulting and outside services, which were partially offset by lower license and other collaboration costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 were $141.7 million, as compared to $122.8 million for the comparable period in 2022. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily related to increases in personnel expenses and legal and advisory fees related to the recent proxy contest.

Provision for income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was $19.2 million, as compared to $17.8 million for the comparable period in 2022, primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income.

GAAP net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was $81.2 million, or $0.25 per share, basic and diluted, as compared to GAAP net income of $70.7 million, or $0.22 per share, basic and diluted, for the comparable period in 2022.

Non-GAAP net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was $100.3 million, or $0.31 per share, basic and diluted, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $89.7 million, or $0.28 per share, basic and diluted, for the comparable period in 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Exelixis’ financial results presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), Exelixis presents non-GAAP net income (and the related per share measures), which excludes from GAAP net income (and the related per share measures) stock-based compensation expense, adjusted for the related income tax effect for all periods presented.

Exelixis believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to, and facilitates additional analysis by, investors. In particular, Exelixis believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with its financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, can enhance investors’ and analysts’ ability to meaningfully compare Exelixis’ results from period to period, and to identify operating trends in Exelixis’ business. Exelixis has excluded stock-based compensation expense, adjusted for the related income tax effect, because it is a non-cash item that may vary significantly from period to period as a result of changes not directly or immediately related to the operational performance for the periods presented. Exelixis also regularly uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and to make operating decisions.

These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Exelixis encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP financial information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand Exelixis’ business. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are presented in the tables of this release.

Cabozantinib and Pipeline Highlights

Cabozantinib Franchise Net Product Revenues and Royalties. Net product revenues generated by the cabozantinib franchise in the U.S. were $409.6 million during the second quarter of 2023, with net product revenues of $403.3 million from CABOMETYX® (cabozantinib) and $6.4 million from COMETRIQ® (cabozantinib). Based upon cabozantinib-related net product revenues generated by Exelixis’ collaboration partners during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, Exelixis earned $37.4 million in royalty revenues.

Cabozantinib and Pipeline Presentations at the 2023 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting. In June, cabozantinib was the subject of 22 presentations at this year’s ASCO Annual Meeting, which was held from June 2-6 in Chicago. Notable presentations included three-year quality-of-life follow-up data from CheckMate -9ER and detailed results from the CONTACT-03 phase 3 trial evaluating the combination of cabozantinib and atezolizumab vs. cabozantinib alone in metastatic RCC patients who have progressed following treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Presentations featuring Exelixis pipeline compounds included updated phase 1 clinical data from the CBX-12 program in collaboration with Cybrexa, as well as an overview of the phase 3 STELLAR-303 study design evaluating zanzalintinib in combination with atezolizumab in patients with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer.

Corporate Highlights

Settlement of CABOMETYX Patent Litigation with Teva Pharmaceuticals. In July, Exelixis announced that it entered into a Settlement and License Agreement (Agreement) with Teva Pharmaceuticals Development, Inc. and Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (collectively “Teva”). This settlement resolves patent litigation brought by Exelixis in response to Teva’s Abbreviated New Drug Application seeking approval to market a generic version of CABOMETYX prior to the expiration of the applicable patents. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Exelixis will grant Teva a license to market its generic version of CABOMETYX in the U.S. beginning on January 1, 2031, if approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and subject to conditions and exceptions common to agreements of this type. Additionally, in accordance with the Agreement, the parties will terminate all ongoing Hatch-Waxman litigation between Exelixis and Teva regarding CABOMETYX patents pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware.

Share Repurchase Program. As of June 30, Exelixis has repurchased $127.0 million of the company’s common stock, at an average price of $19.22 per share. In March, Exelixis announced that the company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $550 million of the company’s common stock before the end of 2023. Share repurchases under the program may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, in block trades, accelerated share repurchase transactions, exchange transactions, or any combination of such methods. The timing and amount of any share repurchases under the share repurchase program will be based on a variety of factors, including ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, alternative investment opportunities, the market price of Exelixis’ common stock and general market conditions.

Exelixis Board of Directors Refreshment Plan. In May, upon the conclusion of its 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, Exelixis announced the election of three new members to its Board of Directors, Mr. Thomas Heyman, Mr. Robert Oliver, Jr. and Mr. David Johnson, following the departure of prior board members Mr. Carl Feldbaum, Dr. Vincent Marchesi and Dr. Lance Willsey. Exelixis thanks Mr. Feldbaum and Drs. Marchesi and Willsey for their commitment and contributions to Exelixis during their tenure, and looks forward to working collaboratively with Messrs. Heyman, Oliver and Johnson to advance the company’s mission to help patients recover stronger and live longer, and generate sustainable, long-term value for shareholders.
