First Quarter Financial Highlights
-
Revenue for the first quarter was
$117.3 million
compared to
$89.0 million
for the first quarter of 2021. The 32% year-over-year increase was primarily driven by an increase in royalty revenue primarily attributable to subcutaneous DARZALEX® (daratumumab), partially offset by a decrease in revenues under collaborative agreements. Revenue for the quarter included
$69.6 million
in royalties, an increase of 89% compared to
$36.9 million
in the prior year period. -
Cost of product sales for the first quarter was
$15.9 million
, compared to
$18.2 million
for the first quarter of 2021. The year-over-year decrease, despite an increase in product sales, was primarily driven by the timing of manufacturing overhead costs in the prior year period. -
Research and development expenses for the first quarter were
$11.9 million
, compared to
$9.0 million
for the first quarter of 2021. The increase is primarily due to an increase in compensation expense, including share-based compensation, for personnel in support of investment in ENHANZE. -
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter were
$13.8 million
, compared to
$11.1 million
for the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation expense and costs associated with M&A and diligence activities. -
Operating Income: On a GAAP basis in the first quarter of 2022, operating income was
$75.7 million
, compared to an operating income of
$50.7 million
in the first quarter of 2021. -
Net Income: On a GAAP basis in the first quarter of 2022, net income was
$60.1 million
, compared with net income of
$27
.9 million in the first quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net income was
$66.1 million
in the first quarter of 2022, compared with non-GAAP net income of
$54.3 million
in the first quarter of 2021.

$1.90

$154.2 million

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables contain certain Non-GAAP financial measures. The Company reports Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company calculates Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excluding share-based compensation expense, amortization of debt discount, debt extinguishment expense and certain adjustments to income tax expense. Reconciliations between GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures are included at the end of this press release. The Company evaluates other items of income and expense on an individual basis and considers both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the item, including (i) its size and nature, (ii) whether or not it relates to the Company’s ongoing business operations and (iii) whether or not the Company expects it to occur as part of Halozyme’s normal business on a regular basis. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP; and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, from time to time in the future there may be other items that the Company may exclude for purposes of its Non-GAAP financial measures; and the Company may in the future cease to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its Non-GAAP financial measures. Halozyme considers these Non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful measures of the operating performance of the Company, exclusive of factors that do not directly affect what the Company considers to be its core operating performance, as well as unusual events. The Non-GAAP measures also allow investors and analysts to make additional comparisons of the operating activities of the Company’s core business over time and with respect to other companies, as well as assessing trends and future expectations.
Safe Harbor Statement
In addition to historical information, the statements set forth in this press release include forward-looking statements including, without limitation, statements concerning the Company’s expected future financial performance (including the Company’s financial outlook for 2022) and expectations for future growth, profitability, total revenue and royalty revenue, net and operating income and earnings-per-share, the Company’s plans to acquire Antares and to repurchase shares under its share repurchase program. Forward-looking statements regarding the Company’s ENHANZE
®
drug delivery technology may include the possible benefits and attributes of ENHANZE
®
, its potential application to aid in the dispersion and absorption of other injected therapeutic drugs and facilitating more rapid delivery and administration of larger volumes of injectable medications through subcutaneous delivery. Forward-looking statements regarding the Company’s ENHANZE
®
business may include potential growth and receipt of royalty and milestone payments driven by our partners’ development and commercialization efforts, potential new clinical trial study starts, the size and growth prospects of our partners’ drug franchises, potential new ENHANZE
®
collaborations and collaborative targets and regulatory review and potential approvals of new ENHANZE
®
products and the Company’s plans to develop new formulations of its API for longer intellectual property protection. These forward-looking statements are typically, but not always, identified through use of the words “believe,” “enable,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “intends,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “predict,” “probable,” “potential,” “possible,” “should,” “continue,” and other words of similar meaning and involve risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from the expectations contained in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors, including unexpected levels of revenues, expenditures and costs, unexpected delays in the execution of the Company’s share repurchase program, risks related to Halozyme’s and Antares’ ability to complete the proposed acquisition on the proposed terms or on the proposed timeline, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals, the possibility that competing offers will be made, other risks associated with executing proposed acquisition, such as the risk that the businesses will not be integrated successfully, that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected or that the expected benefits of the proposed acquisition will not be realized, unexpected results or delays in the growth of the Company’s ENHANZE
®
business, or in the development, regulatory review or commercialization of new formulations of the Company’s API or its partners’ ENHANZE
®
products, including any potential delays caused by the current COVID-19 global pandemic, regulatory approval requirements, unexpected adverse events or patient outcomes and competitive conditions. These and other factors that may result in differences are discussed in greater detail in the Company’s most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
