THIRD QUARTER PRODUCT AND PIPELINE UPDATE

Opdivo

  • In September, the company announced multiple regulatory milestones forOpdivo (nivolumab), an investigational PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor, in the U.S. and European Union (EU):

     

    • In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for priority review the Biologics License Application for previously treated advanced melanoma and set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act decision goal date of March 30, 2015. The FDA granted Opdivo Breakthrough Therapy designation for this indication. Bristol-Myers Squibb has proposed the name Opdivo, which, if approved by health authorities, will serve as the trademark for nivolumab.
    • In the EU, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has validated for review the Marketing Authorization Applications for nivolumab in non-small cell lung cancer (NSLC) – the first completed regulatory submission for a PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor in this tumor type – and in advanced melanoma. The application for advanced melanoma was granted accelerated assessment by the EMA's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use.
  • Also in September, at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress in Madrid, the company announced positive results from CheckMate -037, a Phase III randomized, controlled open-label study of Opdivo versus investigator's choice chemotherapy (ICC) in patients with advanced melanoma who were previously treated with Yervoy. Based on a planned interim analysis of the co-primary endpoint, the objective response rate was 32% (95% CI = 24, 41) in the Opdivo arm (n=120) and 11% (95% CI = 4, 23) in the ICC reference arm (n=47) in patients with at least six months of follow up. The majority (95%) of responses were ongoing in the Opdivo arm and the median duration of response was not reached.

 

Eliquis

  • In August, the company and its partner, Pfizer, announced that the FDA approved a Supplemental New Drug Application for Eliquis for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and for the reduction in the risk of recurrent DVT and PE following initial therapy.
  • In July, the company and its partner, Pfizer, announced that the European Commission (EC) approved Eliquis for the treatment of DVT and PE, and the prevention of DVT and PE in adults. The approval applies to all EU member states as well as Iceland and Norway.
  • In August, at the European Society of Cardiology Congress in Barcelona, Spain, the company and its partner, Pfizer, announced results of a pre-specified secondary analysis of the Eliquis Phase III AMPLIFY-EXT trial. The analysis evaluated clinical and demographic predictors of all-cause hospitalization in patients with VTE. Results from this analysis demonstrated that during the 12-month extended treatment of VTE, Eliquis significantly reduced the risk of hospitalization versus placebo. This effect was independent of other variables including renal function, the only other significant predictor of hospitalization in the AMPLIFY-EXT population.

Daklinza

  • In August, the company announced that the EC approved Daklinza (daclatasvir), a potent, pan-genotypic NS5A replication complex inhibitor (in vitro), for use in combination with other medicinal products across genotypes 1, 2, 3 and 4 for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in adults. The approval allows for the marketing of Daklinza in all 28 EU member states.

Asunaprevir

  • In October, the company announced that it will not pursue FDA approval of the dual regimen of daclatasvir and asunaprevir for the treatment of HCV genotype 1b patients in the U.S. and has withdrawn its New Drug Application for asunaprevir, an NS3/4A protease inhibitor. The company will continue to pursue FDA approval for daclatasvir, which is currently being investigated globally in multiple treatment regimens for HCV patients with high unmet needs.

Sustiva

  • In October, the company announced that it has successfully resolved all outstanding U.S. patent litigation relating to efavirenz, an active ingredient contained in our Sustiva (efavirenz) and Atripla(efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) products, and that loss of patent exclusivity in the U.S. for efavirenz is not expected to occur until December 2017.

THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL UPDATE

In September, the company announced that it will settle $1.4 billion in pension obligations through the purchase of a group annuity contract from The Prudential Insurance Company of America (Prudential) for approximately 8,000 U.S. retirees and their beneficiaries who started receiving their monthly retirement benefit payments on or before June 1, 2014. The transaction reduces risk in the retirement plan and better manages the ongoing variations in cost associated with its maintenance while entrusting current retirees and their beneficiaries' pensions to a financial institution with expertise in the long-term management of retirement benefits. The transaction with Prudential is expected to occur in December 2014 and is subject to satisfaction of closing conditions.

THIRD QUARTER BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

  • In October, the company announced a clinical trial collaboration agreement with Janssen and Pharmacyclics to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of Opdivo in combination with Janssen and Pharmacyclics' oral Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor Imbruvica® (ibrutinib) to treat patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
  • In October, the company and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center announced a clinical research collaboration to evaluate Yervoy, Opdivoand three early-stage clinical immuno-oncology assets as potential treatment options for acute and chronic leukemia as well as other hematologic malignancies.
  • In October, the company announced a clinical trial collaboration with Novartis to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of combining Opdivowith three molecularly targeted oncology therapies from Novartis – Zykadia(ceritinib), INC280 and EGF816 – to treat NSLC.
  • In August, the company and Celgene Corporation announced the establishment of a clinical trial collaboration to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of a combination regimen of Opdivo and Celgene's nab® technology-based chemotherapy Abraxane® (paclitaxel protein-bound particles for injectable suspension) (albumin-bound) in a Phase I study. Multiple tumor types will be explored in the study.
  • In August, the company and Allied Minds announced the formation of Allied-Bristol Life Sciences LLC, a new jointly owned enterprise created to identify and foster research and pre-clinical development of biopharmaceutical innovations from leading university research institutions across the U.S. The new enterprise will focus on converting discoveries from university research institutions into therapeutic candidates for clinical development and, ultimately, approved therapies that address serious diseases.

2014 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

Bristol-Myers Squibb is adjusting its 2014 GAAP EPS guidance range to $1.15 - $1.25 from $1.50 - $1.60 and confirming its non-GAAP EPS guidance range of $1.70 - $1.80. Both GAAP and non-GAAP guidance assume current exchange rates and that the R&D tax credit will be extended by Congress in 2014. Key 2014 non-GAAP guidance assumptions include:

           
      Worldwide revenues between $15.2 billion and $15.8 billion.  
           
      Full-year gross margin as a percentage of revenues between 75% and 76%.  
           
      Advertising and promotion expense decreasing in the mid-teen-digit range.  
           
      Marketing, sales and administrative expenses decreasing in the mid-single-digit range.  
           
      Research and development expenses growing in the mid-single-digit range.  
           
      An effective tax rate of 19% - 20%.  
           

The financial guidance for 2014 excludes the impact of any potential future strategic acquisitions and divestitures, and any specified items that have not yet been identified and quantified. The non-GAAP 2014 guidance also excludes other specified items as discussed under "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information." Details reconciling adjusted non-GAAP amounts with the amounts reflecting specified items are provided in supplemental materials available on the company's website.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP earnings and related earnings per share information. These measures are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, significant gains and losses and other specified items. Among the items in GAAP measures but excluded for purposes of determining adjusted earnings and other adjusted measures are: restructuring and other exit costs; accelerated depreciation charges; IPRD and asset impairments; charges and recoveries relating to significant legal proceedings; upfront, milestone and other payments for in-licensing of products that have not achieved regulatory approval which are immediately expensed; net amortization of acquired intangible assets and deferred income related to Amylin; pension settlement charges; significant tax events and additional charges related to the Branded Prescription Drug Fee. This information is intended to enhance an investor's overall understanding of the company's past financial performance and prospects for the future. Non-GAAP financial measures provide the company and its investors with an indication of the company's baseline performance before items that are considered by the company not to be reflective of the company's ongoing results. The company uses non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP marketing, selling and administrative expense, non-GAAP research and development expense, and non-GAAP other income and expense measures to set internal budgets, manage costs, allocate resources, and plan and forecast future periods. Non-GAAP effective tax rate measures are primarily used to plan and forecast future periods. Non-GAAP earnings and earnings per share measures are primary indicators the company uses as a basis for evaluating company performance, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting of future periods. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
