ImmunoGen, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMGN), a biopharmaceutical company that develops anticancer products using its Targeted Antibody Payload (TAP) technology and antibody expertise, today reported financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 – the first quarter of the Company’s 2013 fiscal year – and provided an update on the Company.
“In the past few months, the results from the T-DM1 Phase III EMILIA trial have been used as the basis for Roche’s marketing submissions, reported in oral presentations at ASCO and ESMO, and published in the New England Journal of Medicine,” commented Daniel Junius, President and CEO. “Roche has continued to expand the potential commercial opportunity for T-DM1, into earlier stages of HER2+ breast cancer and now also into HER2+ gastric cancer. We believe T-DM1 has the potential to rapidly become a highly successful product that makes a real difference for appropriate patients.”
Mr. Junius continued, “Many other, earlier stage TAP compounds are also making meaningful progress. Of particular importance, we now have three wholly owned TAP compounds in clinical testing, and expect to submit an IND for our fourth by mid-2013. We believe the potential value of these TAP compounds will become more apparent over the course of 2013.”
Product Pipeline Update
Financial Results and Guidance
ImmunoGen reported a net loss of $25.2 million, or $0.30 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ending September 30, 2012 (1Q FY2013), as compared to a net loss of $19.5 million, or $0.26 per basic and diluted share, for the same quarter of the last year (1Q FY2012).
Revenues were $4.1 million for 1Q FY2013, as compared to $2.5 million for the same period last year. Revenues in 1Q FY2013 include $1.4 million of research and development support fees and $0.9 million of license and milestone fees, compared to $1.1 million and $1.2 million respectively, for the same quarter last year. Revenues in 1Q FY2013 also include $1.8 million of clinical material reimbursement, compared to $0.3 million for 1Q FY2012. The difference in clinical material reimbursement from the prior year period is primarily due to variability in the number of batches released to partners on a quarter-by-quarter basis.
Operating expenses for 1Q FY2013 were $29.3 million, compared to $22.0 million in the same quarter last year. Operating expenses in 1Q FY2013 include research and development expenses of $23.7 million, compared to $17.2 million in 1Q FY2012. This increase is primarily due to greater investment by the Company in aggressively advancing its wholly owned product candidates. It includes increased third-party costs to produce finished drug product for clinical use, increased personnel expenses, particularly stock compensation expense, and increased clinical trial costs. Operating expenses also include general and administrative expenses of $5.6 million in 1Q FY2013, compared to $4.8 million in 1Q FY2012. This increase is primarily due to increased personnel expenses, particularly stock compensation expense, and increased patent expenses.
ImmunoGen had approximately $233.6 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2012 – inclusive of $94 million in net proceeds from the Company’s public stock offering in July 2012 – compared with $160.9 million as of June 30, 2012, and had no debt outstanding in either period. Cash used in operations was $21.0 million in 1Q FY2013, compared with $11.6 million in 1Q FY2012. Capital expenditures were $1.0 million and $0.6 million for the first three months of FY2013 and FY2012, respectively.
ImmunoGen’s financial guidance remains unchanged from that issued in August 2012. ImmunoGen expects its net loss for its fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 to be between $70 million to $74 million, its net cash used in operations to be between $78 million to $82 million, and its capital expenditures to be between $4 million to $5 million. Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2013 are anticipated to be between $172 million to $176 million.
“We believe that approval and launch of T-DM1 will begin a new era in the treatment of HER2+ cancer,” commented Gregory Perry, Executive Vice President and CFO. “It also will result in ImmunoGen starting to receive royalty revenue. We anticipate our current cash position, combined with the inflow of cash expected to be received from this and other of our partnerships, provides us with the financial resources needed to successfully advance our wholly owned products to proof-of-concept, at which point we have a number of development options.”
