HAMILTON, Bermuda, Aug 10, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ --
Warner Chilcott Limited (Nasdaq: WCRX) today announced its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. Total revenue in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 rose to $227.0 million, an increase of 21.4%, over the prior year quarter. The primary driver of the increase in revenue was the net sales of two products introduced in March 2006, LOESTRIN 24 FE and TACLONEX, which together contributed $48.8 million of revenue growth for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to the prior year quarter. The Company reported net income of $7.9 million ($0.03 per diluted share) in the quarter compared with a net loss of $36.7 million in the prior year quarter.
Cash net income in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $64.7 million. The Company's results for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 included a $10.0 million expense for the previously disclosed settlement of two antitrust lawsuits brought by certain direct purchaser plaintiffs. The claims held by the settling plaintiffs represented a majority of the damages sought by all the direct purchaser plaintiffs in the OVCON 35 litigation, including those sought in the one pending class action lawsuit brought by the remaining direct purchaser plaintiffs. Excluding the after-tax impact of this settlement reserve, adjusted cash net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $74.5 million.
References in this release to "cash net income" mean the Company's net income adjusted for the after-tax effects of two non-cash items: amortization of intangible assets and amortization (or write-off) of deferred loan costs related to the Company's debt. Reconciliations from the Company's reported results in accordance with U.S. GAAP to cash net income and to adjusted cash net income for all periods are presented in the table at the end of this press release.
Revenue
Revenue in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $227.0 million, an increase of $40.0 million or 21.4% over the same quarter in the prior year. The primary drivers of the increase in revenue were the net sales of two products introduced in March 2006, LOESTRIN 24 FE and TACLONEX.
Sales of our oral contraceptive products increased $6.4 million or 11.3% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007, compared with the prior year quarter. We began commercial sales of LOESTRIN 24 FE in March 2006. Beginning in April 2006, LOESTRIN 24 FE became our top promotional priority amongst our oral contraceptive brands. LOESTRIN 24 FE generated revenue of $34.7 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2007, compared to $6.2 million in the prior year quarter. LOESTRIN 24 FE filled prescriptions increased 23.3% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2007. We introduced and began commercial sales of FEMCON FE in the second half of 2006, but did not initiate promotional efforts to launch the product until April 2007. FEMCON FE is now the top promotional priority for our newly expanded Chilcott sales force and generated revenues of $6.4 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2007. FEMCON FE filled prescriptions increased 36.2% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Net sales of ESTROSTEP decreased $7.6 million, or 27.3%, in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in ESTROSTEP net sales was primarily due to decreased demand for the product as measured by a 33.4% decline in filled prescriptions for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same quarter in 2006. A portion of the reduced demand was offset by higher selling prices in the current quarter. ESTROSTEP filled prescriptions declined due to the shift of our promotional efforts to LOESTRIN 24 FE and FEMCON FE. OVCON net sales declined $20.9 million, or 90.1%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the prior year quarter. The decline in OVCON revenue was primarily due to the introduction of generic versions of OVCON 35 beginning in late October 2006, which led to an 85.1% decline in filled prescriptions for OVCON 35 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to the prior year quarter.
Sales of our dermatology products increased $16.8 million, or 21.0%, in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the increase in TACLONEX sales of $20.3 million. TACLONEX, which was launched in April of 2006, achieved sequential growth in filled prescriptions of 7.5% in the current quarter compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Sales of DOVONEX decreased $6.4 million or 16.1% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the prior year quarter due to a decline in filled prescriptions of 17.2% and a contraction of pipeline inventories of DOVONEX products in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 relative to the prior year quarter. The decline in filled prescriptions and contraction of DOVONEX pipeline inventories were partially offset by higher selling prices in the quarter compared with the prior year quarter. In April 2006 we began to promote TACLONEX as the first line topical therapy for mild to moderate psoriasis. The decline in filled prescriptions for DOVONEX in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the prior year quarter was largely due to our efforts to grow TACLONEX. Net sales of DORYX increased $2.9 million, or 11.4% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the prior year quarter. DORYX prescriptions, which had been growing during the period from July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2006, softened in the second half of 2006 due to decreased promotional emphasis following the April 2006 launch of TACLONEX. In January 2007, we took steps to increase our Dermatology sales force's promotional efforts with DORYX. While filled prescriptions for DORYX declined 10.3% during the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same quarter last year, DORYX net sales increased as higher selling prices more than offset the decline in filled prescriptions.
Sales of our hormone therapy products increased $8.2 million, or 22.7%, in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the prior year quarter. The launch of the low-dose version of FEMHRT in 2006 slowed the decline of filled prescriptions in our hormone therapy portfolio. FEMHRT filled prescriptions were down 5.0% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007, compared with the prior year quarter, the impact of which was offset by higher selling prices. Filled prescriptions for ESTRACE CREAM were down 1.7% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the prior year quarter, which was more than offset by higher selling prices. Sales of SARAFEM, our product used to treat symptoms of pre-menstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), declined $0.2 million or 1.6% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007, compared with the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to a 22.1% decline in filled prescriptions in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to the prior year quarter, offset in part by higher selling prices.
Cost of Sales (excluding amortization of intangible assets)
Cost of sales increased $9.1 million, or 24.4%, in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the prior year quarter primarily due to the 19.7% increase in product net sales. Our gross profit margin on product net sales decreased to 79.3% in the current year quarter from 80.1% in the prior year quarter mainly due to a change in the mix of products sold. Our cost of sales for DOVONEX and TACLONEX (which include royalties based on our net sales, as defined in the relevant supply agreements), expressed as a percentage of product net sales, are significantly higher than the costs for our other products. In the quarter ended June 30, 2007 DOVONEX and TACLONEX together accounted for 30.6% of our products sold compared with 29.2% in the year ago quarter. Higher revenues from lower-margin contract manufacturing activities also contributed to the decrease in gross profit margin with contract manufacturing sales accounting for 4.4% of our product net sales compared with 1.9% in the prior year quarter.
Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") Expenses
SG&A expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 were $70.2 million, an increase of $9.2 million, or 15.1%, from $61.0 million in the prior year quarter. Advertising and promotion for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 decreased $5.6 million, or 20.0%, compared with the prior year quarter primarily due to expenses incurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2006 for the promotional launches of TACLONEX and LOESTRIN 24. Selling and distribution expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 increased $3.6 million, or 19.3%, over the prior year quarter primarily due to the expansion of our field sales forces by approximately 75 territories during the first quarter of 2007 to support the initiation of promotional activities for FEMCON FE. General, administrative and other expenses in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 increased $11.2 million over the prior year quarter, with $10.0 million of the increase related to a reserve for the settlement of two antitrust lawsuits brought by certain direct purchaser plaintiffs in the OVCON 35 litigation and the balance due to a general increase in expenses such as payroll and insurance associated with the growth of the business. As a result of the recent settlement activity relating to the OVCON 35 litigation, there remains one pending direct purchaser class action lawsuit alleging antitrust claims.
Research and Development ("R&D") Activities
Our investment in R&D totaled $11.2 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with $5.1 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of $6.1 million or 120.9%. The increase in R&D activities is mainly due to costs being incurred for a clinical study for our new low-dose oral contraceptive. We completed the enrollment of the clinical study in July 2007 and began to enroll patients in a clinical study for another new oral contraceptive during the second quarter. Our product development activities are mainly focused on improvements to our existing products, new and enhanced dosage forms and new products delivering compounds which have been previously shown to be safe and effective. We expect to pay a $10.0 million milestone payment to our development partner LEO Pharma in the second half of 2007 upon FDA acceptance of LEO Pharma's NDA submission for TACLONEX gel for the scalp. In July we made a $4.0 million payment to Paratek Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to acquire certain rights to novel tetracyclines for the treatment of acne and rosacea. The $4.0 million payment will be included in R&D expense in the third quarter.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $31.1 million, a decrease of $14.9 million, or 32.4%, from $46.0 million in the prior year quarter. Included in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $2.6 million relating to the write-off of deferred loan costs associated with the optional prepayment of $130.0 million of our senior secured credit facility debt on June 29, 2007. The decrease in interest expense is primarily the result of reductions in outstanding debt of $866.9 million from June 30, 2006 to June 30, 2007, offset partially by higher interest rates in the current quarter compared with the same prior year quarter.
Income taxes
Our effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was 25.6%, which approximates the Company's current estimate of the corporate effective tax rate for the full year 2007. The effective income tax rate for interim periods and the full year can be volatile due to changes in income mix forecasted among the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate.
Net Income and Cash Net Income
Reported net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $7.9 million and cash net income for the current quarter was $64.7 million. In arriving at cash net income, we add back the after-tax impact of the book amortization of intangible assets and the amortization or write off of deferred financing costs. These items are tax-effected at the estimated marginal rates attributable to them. In the quarter ended June 30, 2007, the marginal tax rates associated with the amortization of intangible assets was 8.6% and the rate for amortization and write off of deferred financing costs was 7.0%.
The Company's results for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 included a $10.0 million expense relating to the settlement of two antitrust lawsuits brought by certain direct purchaser plaintiffs. The claims held by the settling plaintiffs represented a majority of the damages sought by all the direct purchaser plaintiffs related to the OVCON 35 litigation. Excluding the after- tax impact of this expense, adjusted cash net income for the quarter was $74.5 million or $0.30 per share based on 250.4 million diluted Class A shares outstanding.
Liquidity, Balance Sheet and Cash Flows
As of June 30, 2007, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $57.9 million and total debt outstanding was $1,355.0 million with no borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility. We generated $133.6 million of cash from operating activities in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with $40.6 million in the prior year quarter. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 increased by $44.6 million from a $36.7 million net loss in the prior year quarter. During the quarter ended June 30, 2007 our total inventories decreased $17.2 million due primarily to the timing of shipments received from certain suppliers and our accrued expenses increased $10.0 million for the reserve related to the OVCON 35 litigation. Capital expenditures in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 totaled $4.2 million and were primarily for the continued investment in the Company's Fajardo, Puerto Rico manufacturing facility.
2007 Financial Guidance Update
Based on the second quarter results and the current outlook for the remainder of 2007, the Company is increasing its full year 2007 financial guidance.
The Company anticipates revenue to be in the range of $870 to $890 million based on the current outlook for net sales of key products within the various product portfolios.
Total SG&A expenses are expected to be in the range of $250 to $259 million. The increase primarily relates to higher anticipated promotional expenses in the second half of 2007 and the additional G&A expense related to the $10.0 million reserve recorded in the second quarter related to the OVCON 35 litigation. Expected total SG&A expenses do not include any amounts that may be payable in connection with any potential future settlements of our outstanding litigation.
Internal research and development costs are expected to be in the range of $40 to $43 million dollars, reflecting an increase from our previous guidance due to higher than originally anticipated costs associated with ongoing clinical studies. Total R&D expense for the year will also include the $10.0 million milestone payment to LEO Pharma upon FDA acceptance of the NDA submission for TACLONEX scalp gel which we anticipate will occur in the second half of 2007 and the $4.0 million upfront payment to Paratek which will be recognized in the third quarter of 2007. Based on these amounts, total 2007 R&D expense is expected to be in the range of $54 to $57 million.
Based on the revised guidance, GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of $16 to $21 million. Adjusted cash net income, which adds back the after tax impact of book amortization of intangible assets, the amortization and write off of deferred financing costs and the expenses associated with the OVCON 35 litigation settlements, is expected to be in the range of $250 to $255 million. Using 250.6 million Class A common shares, the Company expects adjusted cash net income per share to be in the range of $1.00 to $1.02 for the full year 2007.
For a detailed view of the Company's updated 2007 financial guidance as compared to the guidance provided in May 2007, please refer to the summary at the end of the press release.
