Organon (NYSE: OGN) today announced its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

"Since spin, we have given new life to Established Brands and have expanded our pipeline in both Biosimilars and Women's Health," said Kevin Ali, Organon's CEO. "Year to date, all three of our franchises have delivered growth on a constant currency basis. Over the medium term, we expect to deliver mid-single digit revenue growth with the power of our existing portfolio. As we move into 2024, we will be working to reduce leverage and continue to add products that could enhance that growth profile."

For the third quarter of 2023, total revenue was $1,519 million, a decrease of 1% on an as-reported basis as well as excluding impact of foreign currency (ex-FX), compared with the third quarter of 2022.

Women’s Health revenue decreased 8% on an as-reported basis, and decreased 7% ex-FX in the third quarter of 2023 compared with the third quarter of 2022 driven primarily by a 23% ex-FX decrease of NuvaRing® (etonogestrel/ethinyl estradiol vaginal ring) which continues to be impacted by generic competition. Together, the company's fertility products declined 10% ex-FX in the third quarter as unfavorable discount rates in the United States offset growth in demand. Nexplanon® (etonogestrel implant) decreased 3% ex-FX due unfavorable discount rates and a change in the go-to-market model for the product. These factors were partially offset by revenue from the Jada® system, which more than doubled year over year.

Biosimilars revenue increased 10% on an as-reported basis as well as ex-FX in the third quarter of 2023, compared with the third quarter of 2022. Renflexis® (infliximab-abda) grew 15% ex-FX in the third quarter due to continued demand and strong volume growth in United States and Canada. Ontruzant® (trastuzumab-dttb) grew 34% ex-FX in the third quarter compared to the prior year period driven by the phasing of a tender in Brazil.

Established Brands revenue increased 2% as-reported and increased 3% ex-FX in the third quarter of 2023, despite the impact of Volume Based Procurement (VBP) initiatives in China. Growth in the quarter was driven by Atozet™ (ezetimibe and atorvastatin calcium), particularly in France, strong demand for Nasonex® (mometasone) and favorable pricing for Dulera® (formoterol/fumarate dihydrate) in the United States. Year to date, the Established Brands franchise grew 1% ex-FX. The company expects the Established Brands franchise to achieve flat to slightly better revenue growth on a constant currency basis for the full year 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin include $10 million in the third quarter of 2022 related to acquired IPR&D and milestones, no such expense was incurred in the third quarter of 2023

Gross margin was 59.7% as-reported and 62.6% on an adjusted basis in the third quarter of 2023 compared with 64.2% as-reported and 67.1% on an adjusted basis in the third quarter of 2022. The year-over-year decline in gross margin is primarily due to foreign exchange translation and inflationary manufacturing and distribution costs. Product mix and pricing erosion were also factors, but to a lesser extent.

EBITDA margin was 29.4% in the third quarter of 2023 compared with 35.5% in the third quarter of 2022 primarily due to lower Adjusted gross profit and to a lesser extent an increase in non-GAAP SG&A expense and loss on foreign exchange translation.

Net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $58 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared with $227 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP Adjusted net income was $223 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, compared with $337 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, in 2022. The year over year decrease in net income was a result of a lower Adjusted EBITDA, as well as higher interest expense.

Capital Allocation

Today, Organon’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 for each issued and outstanding share of the company's common stock. The dividend is payable on December 14, 2023, to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 13, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $414 million, and debt was $8.7 billion.

Full Year Guidance

Organon does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company cannot predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts, and acquisition-related expenses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to Organon’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.

The company is updating its full year 2023 guidance ranges previously provided on August 8, 2023. The range for full year 2023 revenue is narrowed and lowered to $6.15 billion to $6.25 billion, which primarily reflects current foreign currency exchange rates, changes to the go-to-market model for Nexplanon, a slower uptake of Hadlima™ (adalimumab-bwwd) and macroeconomic factors in China.

The range for full year Adjusted EBITDA margin is now 30.5% to 31.5% to reflect a lower gross margin stemming from the impacts of foreign exchange on revenue, unfavorable product mix, and the timing of manufacturing costs. Organon's financial guidance does not assume an estimate for future IPR&D and milestone payments for business development transactions not yet executed.

Full year 2023 financial guidance is presented below on a non-GAAP basis.

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are correspondingly not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, which are not recognized terms under GAAP and are presented only as a supplement to the company’s GAAP financial statements. This press release also provides certain measures that exclude the impact of foreign exchange. We calculate foreign exchange by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period average currency rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. The company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help to enhance an understanding of the company’s financial performance. However, the presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. You should refer to Table 4 and Table 5 of this press release for relevant definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

In addition, the company’s full-year 2023 guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP basis because the company is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures. Such items include, but are not limited to, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses, stock-based compensation, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations.

The company uses non-GAAP financial measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more meaningful representation of the underlying operating performance of the business.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Except for historical information, this press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements about management’s expectations about Organon’s future financial performance and prospects, including full-year 2023 guidance estimates and predictions regarding other financial information and metrics, franchise and product performance and strategy expectations for the remainder of 2023 and for future periods, expectations regarding the impact of VBP and developments in China. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as "foresees" “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “will” or words of similar meaning. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, an inability to fully execute on our product development and commercialization plans within the United States or internationally; an inability to adapt to the industry-wide trend toward highly discounted channels; changes in tax laws or other tax guidance which could adversely affect our cash tax liability, effective tax rates, and results of operations and lead to greater audit scrutiny; an inability to execute on our business development strategy or realize the benefits of our planned acquisitions; efficacy, safety, or other quality concerns with respect to marketed products, including market actions such as recalls, withdrawals, or declining sales; political and social pressures, or regulatory developments, that adversely impact demand for, availability of, or patient access to contraception or fertility products; general economic factors, including recessionary pressures, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; general industry conditions and competition; the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and emergence of variant strains; the impact of pharmaceutical industry regulation and health care legislation in the United States and internationally; global trends toward health care cost containment; technological advances; new products and patents attained by competitors; challenges inherent in new product development, including obtaining regulatory approval; the company’s ability to accurately predict its future financial results and performance; manufacturing difficulties or delays; financial instability of international economies and sovereign risk; difficulties developing and sustaining relationships with commercial counterparties; dependence on the effectiveness of the company’s patents and other protections for innovative products; and the exposure to litigation, including patent litigation, and/or regulatory actions.

The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and subsequent SEC filings, available at the SEC’s Internet site (www.sec.gov).
