BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc's BMRN Q2 sales reached $533.8 million, up 6% Y/Y, beating the consensus of $521.47 million.

During the quarter, marketing authorization for Voxzogo was approved in Japan and Australia, with commercial sales anticipated in these markets to begin in Q3 of 2022.
Guidance: BioMarin has upped its FY22 Voxzogo sales forecast to $130-$160 million, from $100 - $125 million expected earlier.
The company expects FY revenues of $2.06-$2.16 billion, up from the previous guidance of $2.05 - $2.15 billion.
BioMarin expects that Roctavian (valoctocogene roxaparvovec) for severe hemophilia A will be approved in Europe in Q3, and FDA resubmission is planned for September.
