Business Highlights
Key Pipeline ProgressRegeneron has
approximately 40 product candidates in clinical development,
including a number of marketed products for which it is
investigating additional indications. Updates from the clinical
pipeline include:
EYLEA HD (aflibercept) 8 mg
- The Company announced positive three-year (156-week) data from
an extension study of the Phase 3 PHOTON trial in patients with
diabetic macular edema (DME). At three years, the longer-term data
showed the vast majority of EYLEA HD patients who entered the
extension study sustained the visual gains and anatomic
improvements achieved by the end of the second year. Of the EYLEA
HD patients who completed the full 156 weeks of treatment, 48% were
assigned a dosing interval of ≥20 weeks at the end of the third
year. The results were presented at the American Academy of
Ophthalmology (AAO) Annual Meeting.
Dupixent (dupilumab)
- In September 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
approved Dupixent as an add-on maintenance treatment for adults
with inadequately controlled COPD and an eosinophilic phenotype.
With this approval, Dupixent is the first biologic medicine
approved in the United States, European Union (EU), and China to
treat these patients.
- In September 2024, the FDA approved Dupixent as an add-on
maintenance treatment for adolescents aged 12 to 17 years with
inadequately controlled chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis
(CRSwNP).
- The European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Committee for Medicinal
Products for Human Use (CHMP) adopted a positive opinion
recommending expanded approval of Dupixent in the EU to treat
children aged 1 to 11 years with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).
The European Commission (EC) is expected to announce a final
decision in the coming months.
- The Company and Sanofi announced that a confirmatory Phase 3
trial met the primary and key secondary endpoints for the
investigational treatment of patients with uncontrolled,
biologic-naïve CSU receiving background therapy with
antihistamines, showing treatment with Dupixent resulted in a
nearly 50% reduction in itch and urticaria activity scores from
baseline. This positive trial confirms results from the first Phase
3 trial of Dupixent in this setting and these data supported the
recent resubmission of a supplemental Biologics License Application
(sBLA) to the FDA.
- The Company and Sanofi announced that a Phase 3 trial in
bullous pemphigoid met the primary and all key secondary endpoints
evaluating the investigational use in adults with
moderate-to-severe disease. In the trial, five times more Dupixent
patients achieved sustained disease remission compared to those on
placebo. This trial will support global regulatory submissions,
including the anticipated fourth quarter 2024 submission in the
United States.
Oncology Programs
- In August 2024, the EC approved Ordspono™ (odronextamab) to
treat adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular
lymphoma (FL) or R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), after
two or more lines of systemic therapy.
- The Company announced five-year results from the final
pre-specified overall survival (OS) analysis of a Phase 3 trial,
which evaluated Libtayo (cemiplimab) monotherapy versus
chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for certain adults with
advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with ≥50% PD-L1
expression. The results were presented at the IASLC 2024 World
Conference on Lung Cancer.
- The Company submitted a regulatory application in Japan for
Libtayo for first-line advanced NSCLC (monotherapy and chemotherapy
combination).
- A Phase 2 study for Libtayo in neoadjuvant NSCLC was
initiated.
- The Company presented new, two-year results at the European
Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Annual Meeting, evaluating the
investigational combination of fianlimab, an antibody to LAG-3, and
Libtayo in adults with advanced melanoma across three independent
expansion cohorts of a first-in-human, multi-cohort trial. These
longer-term results show high clinical activity, including
deepening responses, per a blinded independent central review.
- In August 2024, the FDA issued a Complete Response Letter (CRL)
for the BLA for linvoseltamab, a bispecific antibody targeting BCMA
and CD3, in R/R multiple myeloma that has progressed after at least
three prior therapies. The sole approvability issue identified is
related to findings from a pre-approval inspection at a third-party
fill/finish manufacturer. Resolution of this issue will be required
for both FDA and EC regulatory approvals.
Other Programs
- A Phase 3 study was initiated for pozelimab, an antibody to C5,
in combination with cemdisiran, an siRNA therapy, in geographic
atrophy.
- A Phase 2 study for REGN7999, an antibody to TMPRSS6, for the
treatment of iron overload in patients with beta-thalassemia was
initiated.

Total EYLEA HD and EYLEA net product sales in the U.S. increased
3% in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of
2023. EYLEA HD was approved by the FDA in August 2023 and net
product sales in the third quarter of 2024 were driven by the
transition of patients from other anti-VEGF products, including
EYLEA, as well as new patients naïve to anti-VEGF therapy. Net
product sales of EYLEA in the third quarter of 2024 were adversely
impacted by a lower net selling price compared to the third quarter
of 2023. In addition, third quarter 2024 total EYLEA HD and EYLEA
net product sales were favorably impacted by approximately
$40 million as a result of higher wholesaler inventory levels
for EYLEA HD at the end of the third quarter of 2024 compared to
the end of the second quarter of 2024, partially offset by lower
wholesaler inventory levels for EYLEA.
Sanofi collaboration revenue increased in the third quarter of
2024, compared to the third quarter of 2023, due to an increase in
the Company's share of profits from commercialization of
antibodies, which were $1.09 billion in the third quarter of
2024, compared to $863 million in the third quarter of 2023.
The change in the Company's share of profits from commercialization
of antibodies was driven by higher profits associated with an
increase in Dupixent sales. Sanofi collaboration revenue in the
third quarter of 2023 was positively impacted by the recognition of
the final $50 million sales-based milestone.

- GAAP and non-GAAP
R&D expenses increased in the third quarter of 2024, compared
to the third quarter of 2023, driven by the advancement of the
Company's clinical pipeline, including late-stage oncology
programs, and higher headcount and headcount-related costs.
- Acquired IPR&D
for the third quarter of 2024 included a $45 million
development milestone in connection with the Company's
collaboration agreement with Sonoma Biotherapeutics, Inc. Acquired
IPR&D expense in the third quarter of 2023 related to a $100
million development milestone in connection with the Company's
collaboration with Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
- GAAP and non-GAAP
SG&A expenses increased in the third quarter of 2024, compared
to the third quarter of 2023, due to higher
commercialization-related expenses to support the Company's launch
of EYLEA HD and higher headcount and headcount-related costs partly
related to the Company's international commercial expansion.
- GAAP and non-GAAP
COGS increased in the third quarter of 2024, compared to the third
quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher start-up costs for the
Company's Rensselaer, New York fill/finish facility.
Other Financial Information
GAAP other income (expense) included the recognition of net
unrealized gains on equity securities of $135 million in the third
quarter of 2024, compared to $100 million of net unrealized losses
in the third quarter of 2023. GAAP and Non-GAAP other income
(expense) also included interest income of $187 million in the
third quarter of 2024, compared to $134 million in the third
quarter of 2023.
In the third quarter of 2024, the Company's GAAP effective tax
rate (ETR) was 10.2%, compared to 9.3% in the third quarter of
2023. The GAAP ETR increased in the third quarter of 2024, compared
to the third quarter of 2023, due to a lower benefit from income
earned in foreign jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the U.S.
federal statutory rate. In the third quarter of 2024, the non-GAAP
ETR was 10.7%, compared to 11.9% in the third quarter of 2023.
GAAP net income per diluted share was $11.54 in the third
quarter of 2024, compared to $8.89 in the third quarter of 2023.
Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $12.46 in the third
quarter of 2024, compared to $11.59 in the third quarter of 2023. A
reconciliation of the Company's GAAP to non-GAAP results is
included in Table 3 of this press release.
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased shares
of its common stock and recorded the cost of the shares, or
$738 million, as Treasury Stock. As of September 30,
2024, $2.9 billion remained available for share repurchases
under the Company's share repurchase program.

This press release uses non-GAAP R&D, non-GAAP SG&A,
non-GAAP COGS, non-GAAP gross margin on net product sales, non-GAAP
other operating (income) expense, net, non-GAAP other income
(expense), net, non-GAAP ETR, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net
income per share, total revenues excluding Ronapreve™(b), and free
cash flow, which are financial measures that are not calculated in
accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures are computed by excluding
certain non-cash and/or other items from the related GAAP financial
measure. The Company also includes a non-GAAP adjustment for the
estimated income tax effect of reconciling items. A reconciliation
of the Company's GAAP to non-GAAP results is included in Table 3 of
this press release.The Company makes such adjustments for items the
Company does not view as useful in evaluating its operating
performance. For example, adjustments may be made for items that
fluctuate from period to period based on factors that are not
within the Company's control (such as the Company's stock price on
the dates share-based grants are issued or changes in the fair
value of the Company's investments in equity securities) or items
that are not associated with normal, recurring operations (such as
acquisition and integration costs). Management uses these non-GAAP
measures for planning, budgeting, forecasting, assessing historical
performance, and making financial and operational decisions, and
also provides forecasts to investors on this basis. With respect to
free cash flows, the Company believes that this non-GAAP measure
provides a further measure of the Company's ability to generate
cash flows from its operations. Additionally, such non-GAAP
measures provide investors with an enhanced understanding of the
financial performance of the Company's core business operations.
However, there are limitations in the use of these and other
non-GAAP financial measures as they exclude certain expenses that
are recurring in nature. Furthermore, the Company's non-GAAP
financial measures may not be comparable with non-GAAP information
provided by other companies. Any non-GAAP financial measure
presented by the Company should be considered supplemental to, and
not a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in
accordance with GAAP. |

The Company's 2024 financial
guidance does not assume the completion of any business development
transactions not completed as of the date of this press
release. |

Gross margin on net product sales
represents gross profit expressed as a percentage of total net
product sales recorded by the Company. Gross profit is calculated
as net product sales less cost of goods sold. |
