More importantly, we remain on track to file our supplemental NDA for Cortrophin® Gel in the first quarter of 2020. Generic product revenues increased 20% over the prior year period and we launched one new generic product in late June, Ranitidine capsules. We also received FDA approval for 250 mg/5 ml Vancomycin Oral Solution, which we intend to launch in the third quarter. During the second quarter, we continued to add to our generic portfolio, through an April distribution agreement with a specialty injectable manufacturer and the June acquisition of seven development stage generic products, which expanded our pipeline of injectable drugs to six.” ANI Updates Guidance for Net Revenues for the Full Year 2019 ANI has updated its full year guidance for net revenues due to the competitive landscape of the Methylphenidate ER market. ANI’s guidance for adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA and adjusted non-GAAP earnings per diluted share remains unchanged from previously issued guidance. Revised guidance for 2019 net revenues of $220 million to $226 million reflects sales growth of between 9% and 12% over 2018 full year actual results. Previous guidance for net revenues was $231 million to $245 million. The following table summarizes 2019 guidance:
ANI’s estimates are based upon actual results for the six months ending June 30, 2019 and projected results for the remaining six months of the year. ANI’s full year 2019 financial guidance reflects management’s current assumptions regarding customer relationships, product pricing, prescription trends, competition, inventory levels, cost of sales, operating costs, timing of research and development spend, taxes, and the anticipated timing of future product launches and other key events. For the twelve months ending December 31, 2019, ANI is providing guidance on net revenues, adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA, and adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Second Quarter Results
Generic Pharmaceutical Products Second Quarter Net Revenues - Results and Update Net revenues from sales of generic pharmaceuticals increased 20% to $36.3 million from $30.2 million in the prior period, primarily due to the launch of Ezetimibe-Simvastatin, Candesartan, and other products launched in 2018 and 2019, as well as increased unit sales of Vancomycin. Key Generic Pipeline Product
Branded Pharmaceutical Products Second Quarter Net Revenues - Results and Update Net revenues from sales of branded pharmaceuticals increased 33% to $14.0 million from $10.5 million in the prior period, primarily due to sales of Arimidex® and Casodex®, which were launched under ANI’s label in July 2018 and sales of Atacand® and Atacand HCT®, which were launched under ANI’s label in October 2018. Prior to the launch under the ANI label, net revenues generated by these products was recorded via royalties received and was reported as Royalty and Other. Key Brand Pipeline Products
Vancocin® for Oral Solution Update ANI is currently advancing a commercialization effort for Vancocin® for oral solution. ANI filed a prior approval supplement (“PAS”) in September 2018 and it was approved in June 2019. This product will be manufactured at ANI’s site in Baudette, Minnesota and will compete in a market that currently exceeds $450 million annually. Cortrophin® Gel Re-commercialization Update ANI continues to successfully progress our Cortrophin® re-commercialization program. Significant accomplishments since the first quarter 2019 press release (dated May 9, 2019) include:
ANI remains on track to file a supplemental NDA in the first quarter of 2020. For further details, please see ANI’s Cortrophin® Gel Re-commercialization Milestone Update in Table 5. Contract Manufacturing Second Quarter Net Revenues - Results and Update Contract manufacturing revenues increased 120% to $3.7 million from $1.7 million in the prior year period, primarily due to the impact of contract manufacturing revenues from ANI’s Canadian subsidiary, ANI Pharmaceuticals Canada Inc. (“ANI Canada”), which was acquired in August 2018. Royalty and Other Second Quarter Net Revenues - Result and Update Royalty and other decreased 91% to $0.4 million from $4.9 million, primarily due to the launches of Atacand®, Atacand HCT®, Arimidex®, and Casodex® under the ANI label in the second half of 2018. The net revenues from those products are now included in the net sales of branded pharmaceutical products. This decline was tempered by product development and lab services net revenues from ANI Canada. Key Royalty Product: Yescarta® ANI is entitled to a percentage of global Yescarta® net sales as well as a portion of certain product milestones, such as the recent positive opinion issued by the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (“CHMP”). Operating Expenses Operating expenses increased to $45.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, from $40.0 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to a $4.2 million increase in selling, general, and administrative expense as compared with the prior period, as a result of costs related to the new ANI Canada subsidiary, increased U.S.-based headcount and pharmacovigilance compliance costs in continued support of the expansion of our commercial portfolio, higher GDUFA and PDUFA user fees paid to the U.S. FDA, higher legal fees, and increased sales and marketing-related costs. In addition, depreciation and amortization increased by $1.2 million, primarily due to additional amortization expense associated with a March 2019 asset acquisition and a January 2019 royalty buyout payment related to a prior period asset acquisition. These increases were partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease in cost of sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 29% during the three months ended June 30, 2019, from 35% during same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower royalty expense resulting from a royalty buy out and lower sales of products under profit-sharing arrangements. Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share Net income was $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to net income of $2.8 million in the prior year period. The effective consolidated tax rate excluding impacts of discrete items for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 16.8%. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $0.53, based on 12,269 thousand diluted shares outstanding, as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.23 in the prior year period. Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.44, as compared to adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.13 in the prior year period. For a reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please see Table 4. ANI Product Development Pipeline ANI’s pipeline consists of 111 products, addressing a total annual market size of $5.2 billion, based on data from IQVIA. Of these 111 products, 106 were acquired and of these acquired products, ANI expects that at least 56 can be commercialized based on either CBE-30s or prior approval supplements filed with the FDA. Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company’s fiscal 2019 guidance for adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA and adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is not reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of items that would be included in a reconciliation to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures. Because a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort, it is not included in this release. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA ANI’s management considers adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to be an important financial indicator of ANI’s operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by non-cash stock-based compensation and differences in capital structures, tax structures, capital investment cycles, ages of related assets, and compensation structures among otherwise comparable companies. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA when analyzing Company performance. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss), excluding tax expense, interest expense, depreciation, amortization, the excess of fair value over cost of acquired inventory, stock-based compensation expense, expense from acquired in-process research and development, gains, losses, and expenses related to the repurchase of convertible debt, expenses related to debt financing, transaction and integration expenses, and other income / expense. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, net income or loss reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in Table 3. Adjusted non-GAAP Net Income ANI’s management considers adjusted non-GAAP net income to be an important financial indicator of ANI’s operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by purchase accounting adjustments, non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization, and non-cash impairment charges. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP net income when analyzing Company performance. Adjusted non-GAAP net income is defined as net income/(loss), plus the excess of fair value over cost of acquired inventory, stock-based compensation expense, transaction and integration expenses, gains, losses, and expenses related to the repurchase of convertible debt, expenses related to debt financing, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, expense from acquired in-process research and development, and non-cash impairment charges, less the tax impact of these adjustments calculated using an estimated statutory tax rate. Management will continually analyze this metric and may include additional adjustments in the calculation in order to provide further understanding of ANI’s results. Adjusted non-GAAP net income should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, net income reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP net income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in Table 4. Adjusted non-GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share ANI’s management considers adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to be an important financial indicator of ANI’s operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by purchase accounting adjustments, non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization, and non-cash impairment charges. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when analyzing Company Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is defined as adjusted non-GAAP net income, as defined above, divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding during the period, as adjusted for the dilutive effect of the convertible debt notes, when applicable. Management will continually analyze this metric and may include additional adjustments in the calculation in order to provide further understanding of ANI’s results. Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, diluted earnings or loss per share reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in Table 4. About ANI ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
