INDIANAPOLIS, April 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2022.

"Lilly delivered another quarter of volume-driven revenue growth led by key products and anticipates 2022 to be an exciting year with several potential approvals and new pipeline events," said David A. Ricks, Lilly's chair and CEO. "With the depth of our pipeline, and growth of our medicines in the market, we are well-positioned to help address health challenges in areas of significant unmet medical need, such as obesity, Alzheimer's disease and cancer."

  • As anticipated, Lilly received a CRL from the FDA for the Olumiant® atopic dermatitis indication as the company was not in alignment with the FDA on the indicated population.
  • Lebrikizumab combined with topical corticosteroids showed 70% of patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis experienced at least 75% reduction in disease severity at 16 weeks in the ADhere Phase 3 trial.
  • More than 50% of patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis experienced at least 75% reduction in disease severity at 16 weeks with lebrikizumab in Lilly's pivotal Phase 3 atopic dermatitis ADvocate studies.
  • Nearly 40% of adults with alopecia areata taking Olumiant 4-mg saw at least 80% scalp hair coverage at 52 weeks in Lilly's pivotal Phase 3 studies.

  • The company announced that the Jardiance Phase 3 EMPA-KIDNEY trial will stop early due to clear positive efficacy in people with chronic kidney disease.
  • Adults hospitalized for acute heart failure were 36% more likely to experience a clinical benefit over 90 days if initiated on Jardiance following stabilization and prior to discharge compared with placebo in the Phase 3 EMPULSE trial.
  • Lilly supplied 600,000 doses of bebtelovimab to the U.S. government in an ongoing effort to provide COVID-19 treatment options.
  • The company announced the launch of the Lilly Institute for Genetic Medicine and a $700 million investment to establish a new site in the Boston Seaport.

A discussion of the non-GAAP financial measures is included under "Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Selected Non-GAAP Adjusted Information (Unaudited)." Beginning in 2022, presentations of non-GAAP financial measures will not include adjustments for upfront charges and development milestones related to acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D). Non-GAAP financial measures for Q1 2021 have been adjusted to reflect this updated presentation. 

First-Quarter Reported Results

In Q1 2022, worldwide revenue was $7.81 billion, an increase of 15% compared with Q1 2021, primarily driven by a 20% increase in volume, partially offset by a 3% decrease due to lower realized prices and a 2% decrease due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates. Key growth products, consisting of Trulicity®, Verzenio®, Jardiance, Taltz®, Olumiant, Emgality®, Retevmo®, Cyramza® and Tyvyt®, contributed 13 percentage points of revenue growth and represented 61% of total revenue for Q1 2022, excluding revenue from COVID-19 antibodies. The company recognized worldwide revenue of $1.47 billion from COVID-19 antibodies during Q1 2022 compared with $810.1 million in Q1 2021. Excluding revenue from COVID-19 antibodies and Alimta®, which lost exclusivity in certain major markets, worldwide revenue increased 10% in Q1 2022.

Revenue in the U.S. increased 31%, to $5.17 billion, driven by a 32% increase in volume. The company recognized U.S. revenue from COVID-19 antibodies of $1.46 billion in Q1 2022 compared to $650.6 million in Q1 2021. Excluding revenue from COVID-19 antibodies and Alimta, revenue in the U.S. increased by 14% driven by key growth products.

Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 8%, to $2.64 billion, driven by a 7% decrease due to lower realized prices and a 5% decrease due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, partially offset by a 4% increase in volume. The lower realized prices were primarily driven by the impact of the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) formulary for certain products in China, particularly Tyvyt. The increase in volume outside the U.S. was largely driven by key growth products and sales of the company's rights to Cialis® in Taiwan and Saudi Arabia, partially offset by decreased volume for Alimta, Cymbalta® and Forteo® resulting from the entry of generic competition, as well as decreased volume for COVID-19 antibodies. Excluding revenue from COVID-19 antibodies and Alimta, revenue outside the U.S. increased by 5%.

Gross margin increased 16%, to $5.74 billion, in Q1 2022 compared with Q1 2021. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 73.5%, an increase of 1.1 percentage points compared with Q1 2021. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by an unfavorable effect in Q1 2021 of foreign exchange rates on international inventories sold, partially offset by increased sales of COVID-19 antibodies and, to a lesser extent, lower realized prices.

In Q1 2022, research and development expenses decreased 4% to $1.61 billion, or 21% of revenue, largely driven by lower development expenses for COVID-19 antibodies, partially offset by higher development expenses for late-stage assets.

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses decreased 1% to $1.56 billion in Q1 2022.

In Q1 2022, the company recognized acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges of $165.6 million primarily related to a purchase of a Priority Review Voucher. In Q1 2021, the company recognized acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges of $312.0 million primarily related to business development transactions with Rigel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Precision BioSciences, Inc.

There were no asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges recognized in Q1 2022. In Q1 2021, the company recognized asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges of $211.6 million, largely related to an intangible asset impairment resulting from the decision to sell the rights to Qbrexza®, as well as acquisition and integration costs associated with the acquisition of Prevail Therapeutics Inc.

Operating income in Q1 2022 was $2.40 billion, compared to $1.16 billion in Q1 2021. Operating margin percent, defined as operating income as a percent of revenue, was 30.8%, which includes a negative impact of approximately 210 basis points attributed to acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges.

Other income (expense) was expense of $350.7 million in Q1 2022, compared with income of $321.1 million in Q1 2021. The reduction in other income (expense) was primarily driven by net losses on investments in equity securities in Q1 2022 compared with net gains on investments in equity securities in Q1 2021.

The effective tax rate was 7.3% in Q1 2022, compared with 8.2% in Q1 2021. The lower effective tax rate in Q1 2022 was largely driven by decreased tax expense related to net losses in 2022 and net gains in 2021 on investments in equity securities and decreased tax expense related to the implementation of the provision in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the 2017 Tax Act) that requires capitalization and amortization of research and development expenses for tax purposes starting in 2022, partially offset by a lower net discrete tax benefit compared to the same period in 2021.

In Q1 2022, net income and earnings per share (EPS) were $1.90 billion and $2.10, respectively, compared with $1.36 billion and $1.49 in Q1 2021. Q1 2022 EPS is inclusive of $0.15 of acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges, compared with $0.27 in Q1 2021.

First-Quarter Non-GAAP Measures

On a non-GAAP basis, Q1 2022 gross margin increased 16%, to $5.94 billion compared with Q1 2021. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 76.1%, an increase of 0.7 percentage points. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by an unfavorable effect in Q1 2021 of foreign exchange rates on international inventories sold, partially offset by increased sales of COVID-19 antibodies and, to a lesser extent, lower realized prices.

Operating income on a non-GAAP basis increased $1.03 billion, or 66%, to $2.61 billion in Q1 2022 compared with Q1 2021. Operating margin percent was 33.4% on a non-GAAP basis, which includes a negative impact of approximately 210 basis points attributed to acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges.

Other income (expense) on a non-GAAP basis was income of $37.7 million in Q1 2022, compared with income of $34.6 million in Q1 2021.

The effective tax rate on a non-GAAP basis was 10.3% in Q1 2022, compared with 8.9% in Q1 2021. The higher effective tax rate for Q1 2022 reflects a lower net discrete tax benefit compared to the same period in 2021, partially offset by decreased tax expense related to the implementation of the 2017 Tax Act.

On a non-GAAP basis, in Q1 2022 net income and EPS were $2.37 billion and $2.62, respectively, compared with $1.47 billion and $1.61 in Q1 2021. Q1 2022 non-GAAP EPS is inclusive of $0.15 of acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges, compared with $0.27 in Q1 2021.

Trulicity

For Q1 2022, worldwide Trulicity revenue was $1.74 billion, an increase of 20% compared with Q1 2021. U.S. revenue increased 18%, to $1.31 billion, driven by increased demand, partially offset by lower realized prices as well as wholesale and retail buying patterns. Revenue outside the U.S. was $427.4 million, an increase of 27%, driven by increased volume, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, lower realized prices.

Humalog

For Q1 2022, worldwide Humalog revenue remained flat compared with Q1 2021, at $618.2 million. Revenue in the U.S. increased 11%, to $368.9 million, primarily driven by higher realized prices due to changes to estimates for rebates and discounts in both periods and, to a lesser extent, increased demand. However, the company expects a decline for realized Humalog prices in the U.S. for the remainder of 2022, largely driven by patient assistance programs. Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 12%, to $249.3 million, driven by decreased volume, the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, lower realized prices.

Taltz

For Q1 2022, worldwide Taltz revenue increased 21% compared with Q1 2021, to $488.1 million. U.S. revenue increased 23%, to $307.2 million, driven by increased demand and higher realized prices due to segment mix, partially offset by specialty pharmacy buying patterns. Revenue outside the U.S. increased 18%, to $180.8 million, driven by increased volume, partially offset by lower realized prices and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

Verzenio

For Q1 2022, worldwide Verzenio revenue increased 74% compared with Q1 2021, to $469.4 million. U.S. revenue was $301.5 million, an increase of 74%, primarily driven by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $167.9 million, an increase of 74%, largely driven by increased volume, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

Jardiance

The company's worldwide Jardiance revenue during Q1 2022 was $419.4 million, an increase of 34% compared with Q1 2021. U.S. revenue increased 52%, to $229.8 million, primarily driven by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $189.7 million, an increase of 18%, driven by increased volume, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

Jardiance is part of the company's alliance with Boehringer Ingelheim. Lilly reports as revenue royalties received on net sales of Jardiance.

Alimta

For Q1 2022, worldwide Alimta revenue decreased 38% compared with Q1 2021, to $343.9 million. U.S. revenue decreased 3%, to $254.3 million, driven by decreased volume, partially offset by higher realized prices. Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 70%, to $89.7 million, largely driven by decreased volume due to entry of generic competition in certain markets and, to a lesser extent, lower realized prices.

The company expects continued volume decline for Alimta as a result of the entry of generic competition due to the loss of patent exclusivity in Japan and major European markets. An alternative form of pemetrexed launched in the U.S. during Q1 2022 and the company expects multiple generics to launch in Q2 2022, causing a rapid and severe decline in revenue.

Olumiant

For Q1 2022, worldwide Olumiant revenue increased 32% compared with Q1 2021, to $255.6 million. U.S. revenue was $71.3 million, representing growth of $46.6 million compared with Q1 2021. Revenue outside the U.S. was $184.3 million, an increase of 9%, driven by increased volume, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and lower realized prices. Increased volume worldwide was partially driven by utilization of Olumiant for the treatment of hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Emgality

For Q1 2022, Emgality generated worldwide revenue of $149.3 million, an increase of 25% compared with Q1 2021. U.S. revenue was $108.3 million, an increase of 7%, driven by increased demand, partially offset by lower realized prices. Revenue outside the U.S. was $41.0 million, an increase of $23.0 million compared with Q1 2021, driven by increased demand.

Tyvyt

For Q1 2022, the company's Tyvyt revenue in China was $85.5 million, a decrease of 22% compared with Q1 2021, driven by lower realized prices due to the impact of the NRDL formulary in China on Tyvyt, largely offset by increased demand.

Tyvyt is part of the company's alliance with Innovent. Lilly reports total sales of Tyvyt made by Lilly as revenue, with payments made to Innovent for its portion of the gross margin reported as cost of sales. Lilly also reports as revenue a portion of the gross margin for Tyvyt sales made by Innovent. 

2022 Financial Guidance

The company has updated certain elements of its 2022 financial guidance on both a reported and non-GAAP basis. EPS for 2022 is now expected to be in the range of $7.30 to $7.45 on a reported basis and $8.15 to $8.30 on a non-GAAP basis. The company's 2022 financial guidance reflects adjustments shown in the reconciliation table below.

$.55





Beginning in 2022, presentations of non-GAAP financial measures will not include adjustments for upfront charges and development milestones related to acquired IPR&D. Non-GAAP financial measures for Q1 2021 have been adjusted to reflect this updated presentation.

The company now anticipates 2022 revenue to be between $28.8 billion and $29.3 billion. This $1.0 billion increase reflects additional COVID-19 antibodies revenue from the sale of 600,000 doses of bebtelovimab to the U.S. government in Q1 2022. An unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates on revenue is offset by strength of the core business. The U.S. government has an option to purchase an additional 500,000 doses of bebtelovimab no later than July 31, 2022, but it is uncertain whether the option will be exercised, and any associated revenue is not included in guidance.

Gross margin percent is now expected to be approximately 76% on a reported basis and 78% on a non-GAAP basis. The majority of this roughly 200 basis point reduction is due to the impact of Q1 bebtelovimab sales and, to a lesser extent, increased manufacturing costs due to inflation.

Research and development expenses were increased by $100 million and are now expected to be between $7.1 billion and $7.3 billion, driven by investment in late-stage pipeline assets.

The company is now providing 2022 financial guidance for acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges, which are expected to be approximately $520 million, reflecting Q1 2022 charges of $166 million, with the remainder primarily related to a charge associated with the buy-out of future obligations that were contingent upon the development, regulatory and commercial successes of the company's mutant-selective PI3Kα inhibitor. This financial guidance does not include any impact from potential or pending business development transactions.

Operating margin percent has been reduced by 200 basis points and is now expected to be approximately 28% on a reported basis and approximately 30% on a non-GAAP basis primarily due to the negative impact attributable to acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges.

Other income (expense) for 2022 is now expected to be expense in the range of $500 million to $400 million on a reported basis and is still expected to be expense in the range of $100 million to $0 on a non-GAAP basis. The company's updated reported guidance reflects the impact of net losses on investments in equity securities during Q1 2022.

The company's financial results for Q1 2022 include the favorable impact related to the implementation of the provision of the 2017 Tax Act that requires capitalization and amortization of research and development expenses for tax purposes. The company's financial guidance assumes this provision of the 2017 Tax Act will be deferred or repealed by Congress effective for 2022. If this provision of the 2017 Tax Act is not deferred or repealed by Congress effective for 2022, the company expects the reported and non-GAAP tax rates to be approximately 10% to 11%.

The table above reflects only line items with non-GAAP adjustments. 

(a)     

The company uses non-GAAP financial measures that differ from financial statements reported in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company's non-GAAP measures adjust reported results to exclude amortization of intangibles and other items that are typically highly variable, difficult to predict, and of a size that could have a substantial impact on the company's reported operations for a period. The company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors. Among other things, they may help investors evaluate the company's ongoing operations. They can also assist in making meaningful period-over-period comparisons and in identifying operating trends that would otherwise be masked or distorted by the items subject to the adjustments. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources and to evaluate results relative to incentive compensation targets. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Beginning in 2022, presentations of non-GAAP financial measures will not include adjustments for upfront charges and development milestones related to acquired IPR&D. Non-GAAP financial measures for Q1 2021 have been adjusted to reflect this updated presentation.
