Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ALXN today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2020. Total revenues in the second quarter were $1,444.6 million, a 20 percent increase compared to the same period in 2019. The negative impact of foreign currency on total revenues year-over-year was 1 percent, or $15.9 million, inclusive of hedging activities. On a GAAP basis, diluted EPS in the quarter was $(4.84), compared to $2.04 in the prior year. The second quarter of 2020 includes impairment charges of $2,053.3 million primarily relating to the KANUMA intangible asset as a result of the Company's revised strategic view of KANUMA. Non-GAAP diluted EPS for the second quarter of 2020 was $3.11, an 18 percent increase versus the second quarter of 2019.

"Our teams have demonstrated remarkable resilience and agility in their successful navigation of the uncertain COVID-19 pandemic environment. Despite these challenges, we have delivered another strong quarter and continue to advance our LEAD-EXPAND-DIVERSIFY strategy for long-term value creation," said Ludwig Hantson, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Alexion. "As a result of execution and delivery against our objectives, we have entered a new phase of company growth and diversification, which enables us to adjust our capital allocation priorities and return value to shareholders through an expanded stock buyback program. I am incredibly proud of what we have accomplished so far and am confident that we are well positioned to build on this momentum in the second half of the year."

COVID-19

We continue to take steps to proactively respond to the evolving COVID-19 pandemic and to plan for related uncertainties. We remain focused on continuing to serve patients, protecting the health and safety of our employees and the communities in which we live and work, and supporting patients in clinical trials. We are also focused on minimizing potential interactions that could contribute to the spread of the virus and put additional strain on healthcare systems through the use of innovative virtual means where possible.

• Clinical Trials: We have implemented a pandemic response business continuity plan designed to protect patients and site staff safety while continuing our clinical trials with limited interruption to the extent we are able. While the COVID-19 impact varies by study and program, so far, we have seen little timing impact on fully-enrolled trials and a timing shift of at least three months on trials that are enrolling patients and activating sites, or have not yet started to do so. We are working to re-initiate healthy volunteer studies that had been temporarily paused, pending local dynamics where these studies are being conducted.

• Business Impact: We continue to take proactive measures designed to mitigate the risk of potential interruptions in supply and/or access to patients' customary site-of-care locations. As anticipated, we have seen accelerated conversion from SOLIRIS to ULTOMIRIS. Treatment compliance rates across all our medicines have remained strong and continue to be consistent with pre-pandemic compliance rates. We have also seen the predicted slowing of new patient initiations and delays in treatment starts, and we are continuing to closely monitor this environment as the pandemic continues.

• SOLIRIS - Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD): Alexion plans to initiate a Phase 2/3 study in children and adolescents with NMOSD in the second half of 2020.

• SOLIRIS - Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG): A Phase 3 study of SOLIRIS in children and adolescents with gMG is underway.

• SOLIRIS - Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS): In June 2020, Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare granted SAKIGAKE designation for SOLIRIS in GBS. Alexion plans to initiate a Phase 3 study of SOLIRIS in GBS in Japan in 2021, pending regulatory feedback.

• ULTOMIRIS - Severe COVID-19: A Phase 3 randomized controlled trial of ULTOMIRIS in adults with COVID-19 who are hospitalized with severe pneumonia or acute respiratory distress syndrome is underway.

• ULTOMIRIS - Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH): A Phase 3 study of ULTOMIRIS in children and adolescents with PNH is underway.

• ULTOMIRIS - Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS): In June 2020, the European Commission approved ULTOMIRIS for adults and children with aHUS. An application for approval of ULTOMIRIS for aHUS is also under review in Japan. A Phase 3 study of ULTOMIRIS in children and adolescents with aHUS is underway.

• ULTOMIRIS - 100mg/mL: Applications for approval of ULTOMIRIS 100mg/mL formulation are under review in the EU and U.S. The FDA has set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act target action date of October 11, 2020. This higher concentration formulation is designed to reduce infusion time by more than 50 percent to approximately 45 minutes. Alexion plans to file for regulatory approval of this formulation in Japan in the third quarter of 2020.

• ULTOMIRIS - Subcutaneous: In June 2020, Alexion announced that the Phase 3 study of weekly subcutaneous (SC) ULTOMIRIS demonstrated PK-based non-inferiority versus intravenous ULTOMIRIS. Pending collection of 12-month safety and drug-device combination data, Alexion plans to file for approval in the U.S. and EU for the ULTOMIRIS SC formulation and device combination in PNH and aHUS in the third quarter of 2021.

• ULTOMIRIS - gMG: A Phase 3 study of ULTOMIRIS in adults with gMG is underway.

• ULTOMIRIS - NMOSD: A Phase 3 study of ULTOMIRIS in NMOSD is underway.

• ULTOMIRIS - Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS): A Phase 3 study of ULTOMIRIS in ALS is underway.

• ULTOMIRIS - Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant-Associated Thrombotic Microangiopathy (HSCT-TMA): Alexion plans to initiate limited dose-ranging studies of ULTOMIRIS in HSCT-TMA in the second half of 2020, followed by Phase 3 trials in 2021, pending regulatory feedback.

• ULTOMIRIS - Complement Mediated Thrombotic Microangiopathy (CM-TMA): Alexion plans to initiate a Phase 3 study of ULTOMIRIS in CM-TMA in the first half of 2021, pending regulatory feedback.

• ALXN1840 (WTX101) - Wilson Disease: Enrollment is complete in a Phase 3 study of ALXN1840 in Wilson disease. Study results are expected in the first half of 2021.

• CAEL-101 - Caelum Biosciences: Alexion is collaborating with Caelum Biosciences to develop CAEL-101, which has the potential to be a first-in-class therapy targeting amyloid deposits in patients with light chain (AL) amyloidosis. A pivotal Phase 2/3 program is underway to investigate CAEL-101 as an add-on to current standard-of-care therapy. Dosing is complete in the Phase 2 dose selection portion of the program; the Phase 3 portion of the program is planned to begin in the third quarter of 2020, pending dose selection.

• AG10 - Eidos: Alexion holds an exclusive license to develop and commercialize AG10 in Japan. Eidos is currently evaluating AG10 in a Phase 3 study in the U.S. and Europe for ATTR cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and plans to begin a Phase 3 study in ATTR polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN) in the second half of 2020. Alexion plans to expand the AG10 program into Japan in 2020, pending regulatory feedback.

• ALXN2040 (Danicopan/ACH-4471) - PNH with Extravascular Hemolysis (EVH): Alexion plans to initiate a Phase 3 study of ALXN2040 as an add-on therapy for PNH patients with EVH by the end of 2020.

• ANDEXXA - Acute Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH): In July 2020, Alexion announced the completion of its acquisition of Portola. The acquisition added ANDEXXA to the company's commercial and development portfolios. ANDEXXA has conditional approval in the U.S. and EU (marketed as ONDEXXYA in the EU) for the reversal of anticoagulation in patients experiencing life-threatening or uncontrolled bleeding who are treated with rivaroxaban or apixaban. The Phase 4 ANNEXA-I study - designed to provide clinical data supporting full approval - is underway to assess ANDEXXA compared to usual standard of care in patients presenting with acute intracranial hemorrhage while taking an oral Factor Xa inhibitor.

PHASE 1/2

• ULTOMIRIS - Renal Diseases: Alexion plans to initiate a proof-of-concept trial of ULTOMIRIS in patients with various renal diseases in 2020.

• ALXN1830 (SYNT001): Due to COVID-19, Alexion discontinued the Phase 2 study of ALXN1830, administered intravenously, in warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (WAIHA) and paused the Phase 1 study of a subcutaneous formulation of ALXN1830 in healthy volunteers. The paused Phase 1 study and new Phase 2 studies of subcutaneous ALXN1830 in gMG and WAIHA are planned to begin in 2021.

• ALXN2040 - C3 Glomerulopathy (C3G): Interim data from two Phase 2 studies of ALXN2040 in C3G suggest that inhibition of Factor D is a promising potential target for treating the cause of C3G. However, the study showed that the clinical response with ALXN2040 was suboptimal, due to insufficient PK/PD response and incomplete inhibition of the alternative pathway. As a result, development of ALXN2040 in C3G will be discontinued, but potential future development options with ALXN2050, a more potent Factor D inhibitor, are being assessed.

• ALXN2050 (ACH-5228) - PNH: A Phase 2 study of ALXN2050 monotherapy in PNH is underway.

• ALXN2050 - Renal Diseases: Alexion plans to initiate a proof-of-concept trial of ALXN2050 in patients with various renal diseases in 2021.

• ALXN1720: Seven of nine cohorts are complete in a Phase 1 healthy volunteer study of ALXN1720, a novel anti-C5 albumin-binding bi-specific mini-body that binds and prevents activation of human C5. Due to COVID-19, the study was temporarily paused but is planned to restart in the third quarter of this year.

• ANDEXXA - Urgent Surgery: ANDEXXA is currently being evaluated in a single-arm, open-label study in patients taking apixaban, rivaroxaban, edoxaban, or enoxaparin who require urgent surgery. The results of this study will inform the design of a randomized controlled clinical trial to expand the label in this population.

• Cerdulatinib: Acquired as part of the Portola acquisition, cedulatinib is a dual spleen tyrosine kinase and janus kinase (SYK/JAK) inhibitor being evaluated in a Phase 1/2a study in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or B-cell or T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
