Exelixis Announces First Quarter 2019 Financial Results and Provides
Corporate Update

- Total Revenue of $215.5 Million, Cabozantinib Franchise Revenue
of $179.6 Million -

- GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.24, Non-GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.27 -

- Conference Call and Webcast Today at 5:00 PM Eastern Time -

Exelixis, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXEL) today reported financial results for the
first quarter of 2019 and provided an update on progress toward
fulfilling its key corporate objectives, as well as commercial and
clinical development milestones.

“The first quarter of 2019 was a very productive start to the year, with
strong execution across all aspects of our business,” said Michael M.
Morrissey, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Exelixis. “We
continued our efforts to maximize the commercial and clinical potential
of cabozantinib through the U.S. launch in advanced hepatocellular
cancer in January, as well as the initiation of the COSMIC-313 study
announced today.”

Dr. Morrissey continued: “The financial stability provided by our
growing revenue base across product and collaboration revenue provides
Exelixis with an effective foundation upon which to pursue long-term
growth. We have ambitious plans for the rest of 2019: we intend to start
additional cabozantinib pivotal trials, bring new assets into our
development organization through internal drug discovery and external
business development, and advance our early-stage pipeline, including
XL092. As we move through our 25(th) anniversary year, not only
is our commitment to helping patients with cancer stronger than ever,
but our ability to do so is notably stronger as well.”

First Quarter 2019 Financial Results

Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 were $215.5
million, compared to $213.7 million for the comparable period in 2018.

Total revenues included net product revenues of $179.6 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $134.3 million for the
comparable period in 2018. The increase in net product revenues
reflected the continued growth of CABOMETYX(®) (cabozantinib)
in the U.S. for the treatment of patients with advanced renal cell
carcinoma (RCC), as well as the U.S. launch of CABOMETYX for the
treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have been
previously treated with sorafenib, following its approval by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2019.

CABOMETYX net product revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 were
$175.9 million, compared to $171.6 million for the quarter ended
December 31, 2018. CABOMETYX net product revenues, as compared to the
preceding quarter, were impacted by higher discounts and allowances of
$7.2 million, driven by increased uptake in the government payor
channel. In addition, as of March 31, 2019, the quantity of CABOMETYX
inventory in the U.S. wholesaler distribution channel was approximately
$2.3 million lower than it was as of December 31, 2018.

Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 also include
collaboration revenues of $35.9 million, compared to $79.4 million for
the comparable period in 2018. The decrease in collaboration revenues
was primarily the result of a decrease in revenues from milestones
recognized from Exelixis’ collaboration agreements, which was partially
offset by increases in royalty revenues on net sales of cabozantinib by
Ipsen Pharma SAS (Ipsen) outside of the U.S. and Japan, and development
cost reimbursements by Ipsen and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Ltd.
(Takeda).

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended March 31,
2019 were $63.3 million, compared to $37.8 million for the comparable
period in 2018. The increase in research and development expenses was
primarily related to increases in clinical trial costs, personnel
expenses and stock-based compensation. The increase in clinical trial
costs was primarily due to costs associated with the expanding clinical
trial program for cabozantinib that now includes four phase 3 pivotal
studies (CheckMate 9ER, COSMIC-311, COSMIC-312 and COSMIC-313), as well
as the multi-cohort phase 1b study, COSMIC-021. The increases in
personnel expenses and stock-based compensation were primarily due to
increases in headcount to support Exelixis’ expanded discovery and
development efforts.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter
ended March 31, 2019 were $60.1 million, compared to $54.0 million for
the comparable period in 2018. The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses was primarily related to increases in consulting
and outside services, personnel expenses, marketing costs and
stock-based compensation. The increases in personnel expenses and
stock-based compensation were primarily due to increases in general and
administrative headcount to support the company’s commercial and
research and development organizations. The increase in consulting and
outside services and marketing expenses was primarily due to increases
in marketing activities in support of the CABOMETYX launch in HCC and
continued support of the product in an increasingly competitive RCC
market.

Provision for income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2019
was $14.9 million and Exelixis’ effective tax rate was 16.4%, compared
to $2.5 million and 2.1%, respectively, for the comparable period in
2018. The provision for income taxes relating to Exelixis’ pre-tax
income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was largely offset by a
valuation allowance against its net operating loss carryforwards and
other deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2018, Exelixis released
substantially all of the remaining valuation allowance against Exelixis’
deferred tax assets, after Exelixis determined that it was more likely
than not that these deferred tax assets would be realized.

GAAP net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $75.8
million, or $0.25 per share, basic and $0.24 per share, diluted,
compared to GAAP net income of $115.9 million, or $0.39 per share, basic
and $0.37 per share, diluted, for the comparable period in 2018. The
decrease in net income was primarily related to the decrease in
milestone-related revenues and the increases in research and development
expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses and the provision
for income taxes; those changes were partially offset by the increases
in net product revenues and royalty revenues recognized from Exelixis’
collaboration agreements.

Non-GAAP net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was
$85.5 million, or $0.28 per share, basic and $0.27 per share, diluted,
compared to non-GAAP net income of $125.0 million, or $0.42 per share,
basic and $0.40 per share, diluted, for the comparable period in 2018.
Non-GAAP net income excludes stock-based compensation and adjusts for
the related income tax effect.

Cash and cash equivalents, short- and long-term investments and
long-term restricted cash and investments totaled $1,019.4 million
at March 31, 2019, compared to $851.6 million at December 31, 2018.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Exelixis’ financial results presented in accordance with
GAAP, Exelixis uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press
release. In particular, Exelixis presents non-GAAP net income (and the
related per share measures), which exclude from GAAP net income (and the
related per share measures) stock-based compensation expense and adjust
for the related income tax effect of this non-GAAP adjustment.

Exelixis believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial
measures provides useful supplementary information to, and facilitates
additional analysis by, investors. In particular, Exelixis believes that
each of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with
its financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, can enhance
investors’ and analysts’ ability to meaningfully compare Exelixis’
results from period to period, and to identify operating trends in
Exelixis’ business. Exelixis has excluded stock-based compensation
expense because it is a non-cash expense that may vary significantly
from period to period as a result of changes not directly or immediately
related to the operational performance for the periods presented.
Exelixis also regularly uses these non-GAAP financial measures
internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and to make
operating decisions.

These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute
for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in
accordance with GAAP. Exelixis encourages investors to carefully
consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP
financial information and the reconciliation between these
presentations, to more fully understand Exelixis’ business.
Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are presented in the
tables of this release.

2019 Financial Guidance

Exelixis is maintaining the following financial guidance for 2019. Cost
of goods sold is expected to be between 4% and 5% of net product
revenues. Research and development expenses are expected to be between
$285 million and $315 million and include non-cash expenses related to
stock-based compensation of $20 million. Selling, general and
administrative expenses are expected to be between $220 million and $240
million and include non-cash expenses related to stock-based
compensation of $35 million. Guidance for the effective tax rate in 2019
is between 21% and 23%.

Cabozantinib Highlights

Strong Growth in Cabozantinib Franchise Net Revenues and Royalties.
Net product revenues generated by the cabozantinib franchise were $179.6
million during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, an increase of 34%
year-over-year. During the first quarter of 2019, CABOMETYX
generated $175.9 million in net product revenues and COMETRIQ(®)
(cabozantinib) capsules for the treatment of patients with progressive,
metastatic medullary thyroid cancer generated an additional $3.7
million in net product revenues. Based upon our partner Ipsen’s
cabozantinib-related revenues in the first quarter of 2019 of
approximately $63 million, Exelixis earned $14.0 million in royalty
revenues at the 22% royalty rate. CABOMETYX continues to expand its
global footprint, where it is currently approved and commercially
available in 41 and 28 countries, respectively.

FDA Approval of CABOMETYX Tablets for Previously Treated
HCC. In January, Exelixis announced
the FDA approval of CABOMETYX for the treatment of patients with HCC who
have been previously treated with sorafenib. The FDA’s approval of
CABOMETYX was based on results from the CELESTIAL phase 3 pivotal trial.

Cabozantinib Data at the 2019 American Society for Clinical Oncology
Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium (ASCO-GI). In January, data
from clinical trials of cabozantinib were featured in five presentations
at ASCO-GI in San Francisco, including further analyses from the
CELESTIAL trial.

Takeda’s Application to the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and
Welfare (MHLW) for CABOMETYX as a Treatment for Advanced RCC. In
April, Takeda, Exelixis’ partner in cabozantinib’s development and
commercialization in Japan, announced that it applied to the Japanese
MHLW for approval to manufacture and sell CABOMETYX as a treatment for
unresectable and metastatic RCC in Japan. Per the terms of the exclusive
licensing agreement the two companies entered into in 2017, Exelixis
will receive a $10.0 million milestone payment as a result of this
regulatory filing. Exelixis is eligible for additional development,
regulatory and first-sales milestone payments, as well as royalties on
sales of cabozantinib in Japan.

Completion of Enrollment in CheckMate 9ER. In April, CheckMate
9ER, the phase 3 pivotal trial evaluating the combination of
cabozantinib and nivolumab versus sunitinib in patients with previously
untreated advanced or metastatic RCC completed enrollment, including in
Japan where the last few patients are in the process of being
randomized. CheckMate 9ER is sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb Company
(BMS) and co-funded by Exelixis, and Exelixis’ partners Ipsen and Takeda.

Initiation of COSMIC-313, Phase 3 Pivotal Trial Evaluating the
Triplet Combination of Cabozantinib, Nivolumab and Ipilimumab Versus the
Combination of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Patients with Previously
Untreated Advanced Intermediate- or Poor-Risk RCC. Today, Exelixis
announced the initiation of COSMIC-313, a multicenter, randomized,
double-blinded, controlled phase 3 pivotal trial that aims to enroll
approximately 676 patients at 150 sites globally. The primary endpoint
of the trial is progression-free survival, and the secondary endpoints
are overall survival and objective response rate. COSMIC-313 will be
conducted in collaboration with BMS, which is providing nivolumab and
ipilimumab for use in this trial.

Corporate Highlights

MINNEBRO(™) Receives Regulatory Approval for
the Treatment of Hypertension in Japan. In January, Exelixis’
partner Daiichi Sankyo Company, Limited (Daiichi Sankyo) announced that
MINNEBRO(™) (esaxerenone) tablets had received approval from
the Japanese MHLW as a treatment for patients with hypertension.
MINNEBRO is a compound identified during the prior research
collaboration between Exelixis and Daiichi Sankyo, which the companies
entered into in March 2006, and has been subsequently developed
by Daiichi Sankyo. Per the collaboration agreement, Exelixis will
receive a $20.0 million milestone payment upon the first commercial sale
of MINNEBRO in Japan. Exelixis is eligible for additional
commercialization milestone payments, as well as low double-digit
royalties on sales of MINNEBRO.

Start of Phase 1 Development for XL092. In February,
Exelixis announced it had submitted an investigational new drug (IND)
application to the FDA for XL092, a next-generation small molecule
tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGF receptors, MET and other
kinases implicated in cancer’s growth and spread. Following the FDA’s
acceptance of the IND filing, Exelixis initiated a phase 1 dose
escalation trial evaluating the pharmacokinetics, safety and
tolerability of XL092 in patients with advanced solid tumors, with the
primary objective of determining a dose for daily oral administration of
XL092 suitable for further evaluation. Assuming positive data from the
initial phase of the trial, the expansion phase is designed to further
explore the selected dose of XL092 in individual tumor cohorts, where
safety, tolerability and initial clinical activity would be evaluated.
XL092 is the first clinical candidate to emerge from Exelixis’ in-house
laboratories since Exelixis resumed drug discovery activities.

Exelixis Initiating Phase 3 Pivotal Trial (COSMIC-313) of
Cabozantinib in Combination with Nivolumab and Ipilimumab Versus
Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Previously Untreated Advanced Renal Cell
Carcinoma

– COSMIC-313 is the third phase 3 pivotal trial to investigate
cabozantinib in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors –

Exelixis,
today announced that it is initiating
COSMIC-313, a phase 3 pivotal trial of cabozantinib (CABOMETYX®) in
combination with nivolumab (Opdivo®) and ipilimumab (Yervoy®) versus
nivolumab and ipilimumab in patients with previously untreated advanced
renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with intermediate- or poor-risk disease per
the International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium.
The primary endpoint of the trial is progression-free survival, and the
secondary endpoints are overall survival and objective response rate.

“Clinical observations suggest cabozantinib promotes an
immune-permissive environment, which could present an opportunity for
additive or synergistic effects with immune checkpoint inhibitors,” said
Gisela Schwab, M.D., President, Product Development and Medical Affairs
and Chief Medical Officer, Exelixis. “The mechanisms of action of single
agent cabozantinib and the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab are
complementary, and each has demonstrated efficacy in advanced renal cell
carcinoma. The further combination of these agents as a triplet regimen
may offer promise to previously untreated patients with intermediate- or
poor-risk disease, who are known to have poor treatment outcomes.”

Re: Farmas USA

Venta de Put no tiene nada que ver con comprar call, bueno, el sentido, nada más.

El que vende call o putts se convierte en la banca. Hay muchas más posibilidades de ganar si lo haces bien, por contra te conformas con un escaso beneficio, la prima, y si el cliente gana el premio gordo estás comprometido a pagarle.

Me dieron 35 dólares que si el precio de Exel no baja de 18 en dos semanas me los embolso. Ya me los dieron, aunque ahora pierda un poco.

Si baja de 18 me dan 100 acciones que estoy comprometido a comprar. Precio real 18-0,35= precio compra 17,65. 

Todo lo que baje de ahí son pérdidas. Si cae a cero pierdo 1765 y gano 35.

En la compra de call los beneficios son ilimitados.

Vaya día de vuelta. Y cargándome OSTK, TSLA, 3 AMD, GPRO y las AMRN.

He preferido salir por patas de 5 contratos AMD para el viernes que aparentemente estaba en el bolsillo, por si acaso. Me dejo los más alejados.

Qué feo se queda para mañana.
