REHOVOT, Israel and HOBOKEN, N.J., Nov. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kamada Ltd. KMDAKMDA)), a vertically integrated global biopharmaceutical company, focused on specialty plasma-derived therapeutics, today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

"Our strong third quarter performance is consistent with our forecasted positive outlook for the second half of the year," said Amir London, Kamada's Chief Executive Officer. "Our business is beginning to reap the significant benefits of the acquired portfolio of four FDA-approved IgGs, consisting of CYTOGAM®, HEPAGAM B®, VARIZIG® and WINRHO®SDF. We have now completed our rapid transition from our past dependency on GLASSIA® sales to Takeda to a diversified, fully integrated commercial company and a global leader in the plasma-derived specialty market. In the third quarter, we generated total revenues of $32.2 million, representing a 40% increase year-over-year, and overall gross margins increased to 40% as compared to 25% in the third quarter of 2021. Importantly, each of our expected key revenue and profitability drivers, including our new IgG portfolio, as well as KEDRAB® sales and GLASSIA royalty income, contributed significantly to our sales and profitability growth. Based on our expectation for continued revenue growth and enhanced profitability in the fourth quarter of the year, we are reiterating our full-year 2022 financial guidance, which represents a 20% to 30% increase over 2021 revenue and more than 2.5x over 2021 adjusted EBITDA."

"I am pleased to report that over recent months, as part of the establishment of our direct presence in the U.S. market, we deployed a team of U.S.-based experienced sales and medical affair s professionals who have rapidly established our operations in this key market. The U.S. sales team is making good progress in promoting our portfolio of specialty plasma-derived IgG products to physicians and other healthcare practitioners through direct engagement and opportunities at medical conventions. The Medical Affairs team is working to educate physicians, while addressing their scientific and clinical inquiries, including participating in major medical conferences in the U.S. These activities represent the first time in over a decade that these hyper-immune specialty products have been supported by field-based activity in the U.S. We are encouraged by the positive feedback received from key U.S. physicians who are seeking to publish new clinical data related to our portfolio, while conducting educational symposiums that we believe will have a positive impact on the understanding of these products, thereby contributing to continued growth in demand," continued Mr. London.

"In addition, we continue to make significant progress promoting our commercial portfolio outside the U.S. market. To this end, we recently reported an $11.4 million agreement to supply VARIZIG to an international organization, as well as the extension of an existing tender for the supply, in Canada, of the four IgG products for a total of $22.0 million over the next three years. These significant accomplishments are key factors in ensuring our continued growth. Looking further ahead, we continue to forecast revenue growth at a double-digit rate in the foreseeable years beyond 2022, driven by our proprietary product catalysts, our plasma collection operations, GLASSIA's royalties and the planned launch of eleven biosimilar products in Israel," concluded Mr. London.

Financial Highlights for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

• Total revenues were $32.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, a 40% increase from the $23.0 million recorded in the third quarter of 2021. Total revenues during the third quarter of 2022 included strong sales from the portfolio of four acquired FDA-approved IgG products. Total revenues included $3.5 million of sales-based royalty income from Takeda based on GLASSIA sales in the U.S.
• Gross profit and gross margins were $12.9 million and 40%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $5.7 million and 25%, respectively, reported in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in profitability was driven by a positive product sales mix, including sales of our four new IgG products, KEDRAB and GLASSIA royalties. Cost of goods sold in the Company's Proprietary segment in the third quarter of 2022 included $1.3 million of depreciation expenses associated with intangible assets generated through the IgG products acquisition. Gross profit and gross margins, excluding such intangible assets depreciation, would have been $14.2 million and 44%, respectively.
• Operating expenses, including R&D, Sales & Marketing (S&M), G&A and other expenses, totaled $10.3 million in the third quarter of 2022, as compared to $6.5 million in the third quarter of 2021. This increase was attributable to increased S&M costs associated with expanded U.S. commercial operations and increased costs associated with accelerating recruitment for the ongoing pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of Inhaled AAT. S&M costs for the quarter included $0.4 million of depreciation expenses of intangible assets generated through the IgG products acquisition.
• Finance expense, net for the third quarter of 2022 included a $2.0 million expense associated with the revaluation of the contingent consideration and other long-term liabilities assumed as part of the IgG products acquisition. For more information with respect to such contingent consideration and other long-term liabilities, please refer to Note 5 of the Company's 2021 financial statements included in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed on March 15, 2022, with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
• Net income was $0.5 million, or $0.01 per share, in the third quarter of 2022, as compared to a net loss of $0.8 million, or $(0.02) per share, in the third quarter of 2021.

Financial Highlights for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

• Total revenues for the first nine months of 2022 were $83.9 million, a 16% increase from the $72.2 million generated in the first nine months of 2021. The increase in revenues is mainly attributable to sales of the acquired four IgG products.
• Gross profit and gross margins for the first nine months of 2022 were $31.4 million and 37%, respectively, compared to $23.7 million and 33%, respectively, in the prior year period. Gross profit and gross margins in the first nine months of 2022, excluding intangible assets depreciation and a $4.3 million loss related to the labor strike concluded in July 2022, would have been $39.7 million and 47%, respectively, representing a significant increase year-over-year.
• Operating expenses, including R&D, S&M, G&A and other expenses, totaled $30.9 million in the first nine months of 2022, as compared to $21.1 million in the first nine months 2021. This increase was attributable to an increase in S&M costs associated with the recently acquired portfolio marketing and commercial operation, as well as increased R&D costs, primarily due to advancing the pivotal Phase 3 InnovAATe trial for Inhaled AAT through the opening of new clinical sites and the manufacturing of clinical supply for the study. S&M costs for the first nine months included $1.3 million of depreciation expenses of intangible assets generated through the IgG products acquisition.
• Finance expense, net for the first nine months of 2022 included a $5.9 million expense associated with the revaluation of the contingent consideration and other long-term liabilities, assumed as part of the IgG products acquisition.
• Net loss for the first nine months of 2022 was $5.3 million, or $(0.12) per share, as compared to net income of $2.8 million, or $0.06 per share, in the prior year period. Excluding loss associated with the labor strike, depreciation expenses of intangible assets generated through the recent acquisition and finance expense associated with the revaluation of the contingent consideration and other assumed long-term liabilities, the Company would have recorded net income of $10.2 million, or $0.23 per share, in the first nine months of 2022.
• Adjusted EBITDA, as detailed in the tables below, was $10.6 million in the first nine months of 2022, as compared to $6.7 million in the first nine months of 2021, representing a 58% increase year-over-year, and 13% margins, which is in line with Kamada's annual guidance. Excluding loss associated with the labor strike, Adjusted EBITDA would have been $14.9 million, representing an 18% margin.
• Cash provided by operating activities during the first nine months of 2022 was $21.8 million, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $3.9 million during the first nine months of 2021.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $31.3 million, as compared to $18.6 million as of December 31, 2021. Kamada's strong cash position is driven by continued positive operational cash flows, which is indicative of the significant momentum in the Company's commercial operations.

Fiscal Year 2022 Guidance
Kamada continues to expect to generate fiscal year 2022 total revenues in the range of $125 million to $135 million, which would represent 20% to 30% growth compared to fiscal year 2021. The Company also anticipates generating adjusted EBITDA during 2022 at a rate of 12% to 15% of total revenues, representing more than 2.5x of the adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Recent Corporate Highlights

• Awarded extension to existing Canadian supply tender for the portfolio of four specialty IgG products acquired in 2021. The supply extension secures ongoing sales of approximately $7.5 million per year for 2023-2025, with an option to extend for up to an additional two years.
• Reported acceleration of enrollment in ongoing pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of Inhaled AAT. The independent DSMB recommended study continuation without modification for the fourth time since study initiation. Based on encouraging safety observed to date, trial inclusion criteria revised to also include patients with severe airflow limitation, thereby expanding the potential patient treatment population. Kamada intends to meet with the FDA and EMA during the first half of 2023 to discuss study progress and potential opportunities to shorten the regulatory pathway.

Non-IFRS financial measures
We present EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we use this non-IFRS financial measure to assess our operational performance, for financial and operational decision-making, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Management believes this non-IFRS financial measure are useful to investors because: (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and provide investors with a meaningful perspective on the current underlying performance of the Company's core ongoing operations; and (2) they exclude the impact of certain items that are not directly attributable to our core operating performance and that may obscure trends in the core operating performance of the business. Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, our IFRS results. We expect to continue reporting non-IFRS financial measures, adjusting for the items described below, and we expect to continue to incur expenses similar to certain of the non-cash, non-IFRS adjustments described below. Accordingly, unless otherwise stated, the exclusion of these and other similar items in the presentation of non-IFRS financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under IFRS and do not purport to be an alternative to IFRS terms as an indicator of operating performance or any other IFRS measure. Moreover, because not all companies use identical measures and calculations, the presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are defined as net income (loss), plus income tax expense, plus or minus financial income or expenses, net, plus or minus income or expense in respect of securities measured at fair value, net, plus or minus income or expenses in respect of currency exchange differences and derivatives instruments, net, plus depreciation and amortization expense, plus non-cash share-based compensation expenses and certain other costs.
