Allergan Reports Fourth Quarter 2012 Operating Results

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Allergan, Inc. (NYS: AGN) today announced operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Allergan also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a fourth quarter dividend of $0.05 per share, payable on March 21, 2013 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2013.

Operating Results Attributable to Stockholders


For the quarter ended December 31, 2012:

  • Allergan reported $1.06 diluted earnings per share attributable to stockholders compared to $0.90 diluted earnings per share attributable to stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2011.

  • Allergan reported $1.15 non-GAAP diluted earnings per share attributable to stockholders compared to $1.00 non-GAAP diluted earnings per share attributable to stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2011, a 15.0 percent increase.

  • Diluted and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2012 exclude the full year 2012 impact of the U.S. Research and Development tax credit, which was signed into law on January 2, 2013 and retroactively reinstated to January 1, 2012. The estimated impact of the Research and Development tax credit on net earnings attributable to Allergan for the full year 2012, which will be reported in Allergan's operating results in the first quarter of 2013, was approximately $17.3 million, or $0.06 diluted earnings per share based on weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 307.1 million for the full year 2012.

Product Sales

For the quarter ended December 31, 2012:

  • Allergan reported $1,484.6 million total product net sales. Total product net sales increased 7.4 percent compared to total product net sales in the fourth quarter of 2011. On a constant currency basis, total product net sales increased 8.1 percent compared to total product net sales in the fourth quarter of 2011.

    • Total specialty pharmaceuticals net sales increased 8.2 percent, or 9.0 percent on a constant currency basis, compared to total specialty pharmaceuticals net sales in the fourth quarter of 2011.

    • Total medical devices net sales increased 2.9 percent, or 3.6 percent on a constant currency basis, compared to total medical devices net sales in the fourth quarter of 2011.

"Evidenced by our recent acquisitions of SkinMedica and MAP Pharmaceuticals and our decision to declare our obesity intervention assets as a discontinued business, we are dynamically managing our portfolio to drive long term sales growth," said David E.I. Pyott, Allergan's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. "In 2013, we look forward to making a notable increase in R&D investment, to secure several regulatory approvals and to growing our markets."

Based on internal information and assumptions, full year 2012 therapeutic sales accounted for approximately 52% of total BOTOX® (onabotulinumtoxinA) sales and increased approximately 13% compared to 2011. Full year 2012 aesthetic sales accounted for approximately 48% of total BOTOX® sales and increased approximately 8% compared to 2011.

Product and Pipeline Update

During the fourth quarter of 2012:

  • On November 16, 2012, Allergan announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement with SkinMedica, Inc. to acquire the privately held company's topical aesthetics skin care business. On December 19, 2012, Allergan announced completion of the acquisition of SkinMedica, Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, Allergan paid approximately $350 million (subject to certain adjustments) for the business, which includes a variety of "physician dispensed" non-prescription aesthetic skin care products and prescription products.

  • On November 19, 2012, Allergan received the European Commission decision for a new preservative-free formulation of LUMIGAN® (Bimatoprost Ophthalmic Solution) 0.03% in single-dose containers for the 27 countries of the European Union. LUMIGAN® is licensed for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in adults with chronic open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension and is now available in a formulation for those patients who require a preservative-free treatment.

  • In December 2012, the U.S. District Court in Santa Ana, California granted Allergan's summary judgment motions, finding that Lifetech's Rapidlash®, Cosmetic Alchemy's LiLash®, and Rocasuba's neuLash® lines of products are drugs sold without approval and are therefore misbranded in violation of California law as well as the federal statutes which California law incorporates. On October 12, 2012, the court denied a motion by Athena Cosmetics, Inc. for reconsideration of the court's decision to grant Allergan's motion for summary judgment against Athena Cosmetics, Inc. on our unfair competition cause of action. In July 2012, the court granted Allergan's summary judgment motion, finding that Athena's Revitalash® line of products are drugs sold without approval and are therefore misbranded in violation of California law as well as the federal statutes which California law incorporates.

  • On December 19, 2012, Allergan announced that BOTOX® (botulinum toxin type A) received a positive opinion from the Irish Medicines Board for the treatment of idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urinary incontinence, urgency and frequency in adult patients who have an inadequate response to, or are intolerant of, anticholinergic medications. This is an important step towards securing national licenses in the 14 European countries involved in the Mutual Recognition Procedure.

  • Allergan submitted a supplemental biologics license application (sBLA) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the use of BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA)for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe lateral canthal lines (crow's feet lines) in adults treated either alone or simultaneously with glabellar lines.

Following the end of the fourth quarter of 2012:

  • On January 18, 2013, Allergan announced that the FDA approved BOTOX® (onabotulinumtoxinA) for the treatment of overactive bladder with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency and frequency in adults who have had an inadequate response to or are intolerant of an anticholinergic medication.

  • On January 22, 2013, Allergan and MAP Pharmaceuticals announced that they entered into a definitive merger agreement whereby Allergan will acquire 100% of the shares of MAP Pharmaceuticals for a price of $25.00 per share. MAP Pharmaceuticals is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing new therapies in Neurology, including Levadex®, an orally inhaled drug for the potential acute treatment of migraine in adults. Levadex® is currently under review with the FDA.

  • In January 2013, Allergan restructured its collaboration agreement with Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Spectrum") pursuant to which Spectrum reacquired all rights from Allergan under the collaboration agreement in exchange for agreeing to pay Allergan a royalty on future net sales of specified products. Going forward, Allergan will have no further obligations under the agreement to share development costs or perform any development, regulatory or other activities.

  • On February 1, 2013, Allergan completed its previously announced review of strategic options for maximizing the value of its obesity intervention business, and has formally committed to pursue a sale of that business unit. Accordingly, Allergan will begin to consider offers for the sale of that business unit and currently expects to execute a signed agreement in the first half of 2013. As a result of Allergan's approved plan to sell its obesity intervention business unit, beginning in the first quarter of 2013, Allergan expects to report the financial results from that business unit in discontinued operations in its statement of earnings and balance sheet, and intends to retrospectively adjust its prior period statements of earnings and its balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 to reflect the classification of assets and liabilities held for sale as discontinued operations. In the first quarter of 2013, Allergan expects to report income from discontinued operations and a separate expected disposal loss from the write-down to fair value of the net assets held for sale. Allergan is currently unable to estimate the range of the expected disposal loss. As previously stated, Allergan intends to offset any potential earnings dilution related to this transaction.

For the full year of 2013, Allergan expects:

  • Total product net sales between $5,900 million and $6,200 million, which excludes the obesity intervention business.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the statements by Mr. Pyott and other statements regarding product development, external corporate development initiatives and strategic partnering transactions, market potential, expected growth and regulatory approvals as well as Allergan's earnings per share, product net sales, revenue forecasts and any other statements that refer to Allergan's expected, estimated or anticipated future results. Because forecasts are inherently estimates that cannot be made with precision, Allergan's performance at times differs materially from its estimates and targets, and Allergan often does not know what the actual results will be until after the end of the applicable reporting period. Therefore, Allergan will not report or comment on its progress during a current quarter except through public announcement. Any statement made by others with respect to progress during a current quarter cannot be attributed to Allergan.

All forward-looking statements in this press release reflect Allergan's current analysis of existing trends and information and represent Allergan's judgment only as of the date of this press release. Actual results may differ materially from current expectations based on a number of factors affecting Allergan's businesses, including, among other things, the following: changing competitive, market and regulatory conditions; the timing and uncertainty of the results of both the research and development and regulatory processes; domestic and foreign health care and cost containment reforms, including government pricing, tax and reimbursement policies; technological advances and patents obtained by competitors; the performance, including the approval, introduction, and consumer and physician acceptance of new products and the continuing acceptance of currently marketed products; the effectiveness of advertising and other promotional campaigns; the timely and successful implementation of strategic initiatives; the results of any pending or future litigation, investigations or claims; the uncertainty associated with the identification of and successful consummation and execution of external corporate development initiatives and strategic partnering transactions; and Allergan's ability to obtain and successfully maintain a sufficient supply of products to meet market demand in a timely manner. In addition, U.S. and international economic conditions, including higher unemployment, financial hardship, consumer confidence and debt levels, taxation, changes in interest and currency exchange rates, international relations, capital and credit availability, the status of financial markets and institutions, fluctuations or devaluations in the value of sovereign government debt, as well as the general impact of continued economic volatility, can materially affect Allergan's results. Therefore, the reader is cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. Allergan expressly disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements except as required to do so by law.
