--Company reports Glatopa® 20 mg product revenues of $23 million, a 58% increase over the same period in 2016--
“We continue to demonstrate the value of our Glatopa business both with increased revenues year-over-year for the 20 mg product and the potential of the 40 mg product to be launched this year,” said Craig A. Wheeler, President and Chief Executive Officer of Momenta Pharmaceuticals. “Our biosimilar and novel autoimmune programs also showed strong momentum. We expect to submit our biosimilar HUMIRA® candidate for marketing approval mid-year followed by Phase 1 top-line data for our biosimilar ORENCIA® candidate, in collaboration with Mylan. For our novel autoimmune programs, data from the M281 Phase 1 study is expected in the second half of the year and we expect our lead program with CSL, M230, to enter the clinic this year.”

First Quarter 2017 Financial Results
Revenue: In the first quarter of 2017, the Company recorded $23.4 million in product revenues from Sandoz’s sales of Glatopa 20 mg, compared to $14.8 million for the same period in 2016. The increase in product revenues of $8.6 million, or 58%, was primarily due to a higher number of Glatopa 20 mg units sold. Collaborative research and development revenue for the first quarter of 2017 was $3.2 million compared to $5.1 million recorded in the same quarter last year. The decrease in research and development revenue of $1.9 million, or 37%, was primarily due to the termination of the Baxalta Collaboration Agreement, effective December 31, 2016, under which the Company was reimbursed for M923 employee expenses and external costs and for which the Company recognized a portion of Baxalta's initial upfront payment in the first quarter of 2016. Total revenues for the first quarter of 2017 were $26.6 million compared to $19.9 million for the same period in 2016.
Operating Expenses: Total GAAP operating expenses were $59.2 million in the first quarter of 2017. Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2017 were $36.1 million, compared to $28.8 million for the same period in 2016. The increase of $7.3 million, or 25%, was primarily due to increased spending on M923 as the program was transitioned back to the Company effective December 31, 2016, as a result of the termination of the Baxalta Collaboration Agreement.
General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2017 were $23.1 million, compared with $15.6 million for the same period in 2016. The increase of $7.5 million, or 48%, was primarily driven by increases of $5.0 million relating to the Company's ongoing litigation and $2.0 million in personnel-related expenses, of which $1.6 million represents share-based compensation expense.
First quarter non-GAAP operating expense was $51.0 million, in line with previously provided guidance of $50 - $60 million per quarter in 2017.
Net Loss: The Company reported a net loss of $31.8 million, or $0.46 per share for the first quarter of 2017 compared to a net loss of $24.0 million, or $0.35 per share for the same period in 2016.
Cash Position: At March 31, 2017, Momenta had $433.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities compared to $353.2 million at December 31, 2016. Cash provided by operating activities was $63.0 million during the first quarter of 2017, driven by the receipt of $51.2 million from the termination of the Baxalta Collaboration Agreement and the $50.0 million upfront payment from CSL pursuant to the worldwide license agreement, as compared to approximately $13.9 million during the first quarter of 2016.
In April 2015, Momenta entered into an ATM agreement with Stifel under which the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $75 million. In the first quarter of 2017, the Company recorded net proceeds of $18.5 million, of which $4.1 million was received in April 2017, from the sale of 1.3 million shares of common stock sold through the ATM agreement.
2017 Financial Guidance
Momenta provides non-GAAP operating expense guidance, which it believes can enhance an overall understanding of its financial performance when considered together with GAAP figures. Refer to the section of this press release below entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Information and Other Disclosures” for further discussion of this subject.
Non-GAAP operating expense is total operating expenses (which excludes collaboration expenses reimbursable by Mylan), less stock-based compensation expense and collaboration expenses incurred by the Company that are reimbursable by Sandoz. Today, Momenta is reiterating non-GAAP operating expense guidance of approximately $200 - $240 million for 2017 and $50 - $60 million for the second quarter of 2017. This guidance includes approximately $55 million of spending on M923 that will now be included in the Company’s 2017 operating expenses. Of the $55 million, $51 million of the expense has already been paid by Shire as part of the termination agreement. The quarterly recognition of collaborative revenues under the Company’s collaboration with Mylan is expected to be approximately $1.8 million per quarter. The Company expects to recognize the $50 million upfront payment from CSL as revenue in the second half of 2017.
Non-GAAP Financial Information and Other Disclosures
Momenta uses a non-GAAP financial measure, non-GAAP operating expense, to provide operating expense guidance. Momenta believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it provides greater transparency regarding Momenta’s operating performance and excludes non-cash stock compensation expense and is net of collaborative reimbursement revenues from Sandoz. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered an alternative to GAAP total operating expense and should not be considered a measure of Momenta’s liquidity. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should only be used to supplement an understanding of Momenta’s operating results as reported under GAAP. Momenta has not provided a GAAP reconciliation for its forward-looking non-GAAP annual operating expense because Momenta cannot reliably predict without unreasonable efforts the timing or amount of the factors that substantially contribute to the projection of stock compensation expense, which is excluded from the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. The Company has provided the anticipated reconciling information that is available without unreasonable effort in the section of this press release above entitled “2017 Financial Guidance.”
