PDL BioPharma Announces Third Quarter 2013 Financial Results

-Revenues Increased 14 Percent-
 
INCLINE VILLAGE, NV, November 6, 2013 – PDL BioPharma, Inc. (PDL) (NASDAQ: PDLI) today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Total revenues for the third quarter of 2013 increased 14 percent to $97.3 million from $85.2 million reported in the third quarter of 2012. For the first nine months of 2013, total revenues increased 15 percent to $332.8 million from $288.5 million reported in the comparable period of 2012.

Royalty revenues for the third quarter of 2013 are based on second quarter 2013 product sales by PDL’s licensees. The year-to-date royalty revenue growth is driven by increased sales of Avastin ®, Herceptin ®, Lucentis ®, Perjeta ®, Kadcyla ®, and Actemra ® by PDL's licensees in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the first and second quarters of 2013. Net sales of Avastin, Herceptin, Lucentis, Xolair®, Perjeta, and Kadcyla are subject to a tiered royalty rate except in the case when the product is ex-U.S. manufactured and sold, in which case it is subject to a flat three percent royalty rate.

General and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2013 were $7.9 million, compared with $5.6 million in the same quarter of 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, general and administrative expenses were $21.9 million compared to $17.7 million in the comparable period of 2012. The increase in expenses for both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013, was a result of increased legal expenses related to ongoing litigation.

Net income for the third quarter of 2013 was $56.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, as compared with net income of $48.6 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the same quarter of 2012. The increase in net income in the third quarter is primarily due to a 13 percent increase in royalty revenues. Net income for the first nine months of 2013 was $203.4 million, or $1.31 per diluted share, as compared with net income of $162.3 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, in the same period of 2012.
 
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2013 was $209.7 million, compared with $158.6 million for the first nine months of 2012. At September 30, 2013, PDL had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $326.5 million, compared with $148.7 million at December 31, 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to net cash provided by operating activities of $209.7 million and repayment of notes receivable of $58.1 million, offset in part by payment of dividends of $62.9 million and cash advanced on notes receivable of $48.7 million.

“We are gratified by the continued success of our asset acquisition strategy, including the four additional transactions completed in the past month, and believe that-with ROI at top-of-mind-we are continuing to add long term value for the company and our stockholders,” stated John P. McLaughlin, president and chief executive officer of PDL. “Our goal is to be the financial partner of choice to leading life science companies and other institutions seeking to access non-dilutive capital, and we are actively looking to expand our portfolio. With the conclusion of the four recent transactions, PDL has deployed $368 million in capital in 2013 and $496 million in total to acquire new income generating assets to support our dividend payments.”
