Hi Leute!
Kann mir mal bitte jemand erklären was in dem
Quartalsbericht von Aviron geschrieben steht
leider ist mein Englisch misserabel! Das Ergebinis
scheint zumindest die Erwartungen erfüllt zu haben
oder etwas nicht? Der Kurs ist jedenfalls um 10% gestiegen!
Weiß jemand wenn nun die Zulassung des Medikaments
zur Grippeimpfung erfolgen soll.
Nachbörslich ist der Kurs 1$ gefallen, hängt das vielleicht
mit dem schlechten Ergebnis von Amgen zusammen?
Aviron Announces Third Quarter, Nine Month 2000 Results
PR Newswire
Thursday October 26 9:38am
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Aviron (Nasdaq: AVIR) today announced results for the third quarter and nine months, ended September 30, 2000.
For the third quarter, the company reported a net loss of $19.5 million (basic net loss of $0.90 per share) compared to a net loss of $22.6 million (basic net loss of $1.43 per share) for the third quarter of 1999. For the first nine months of 2000, the company reported a net loss of $68.2 million (basic net loss of $3.42 per share) compared to a net loss of $39.3 million (basic net loss of $2.49 per share) for the first nine months of 1999.
Revenues in the 2000 third quarter totaled $2.9 million, compared to $1.4 million for the 1999 third quarter. Revenues for the first nine months of 2000 were $7.9 million, as compared to $19.8 million for the first nine months of 1999. Revenues during the 2000 third quarter and first nine months of 2000 were comprised principally of payments from Wyeth Lederle Vaccines (Wyeth), a business unit of American Home Products Corporation (AHP), related to the clinical development and commercialization of FluMist(TM), under the terms of our FluMist(TM) collaboration agreement. FluMist(TM) is Aviron`s investigational intranasal influenza vaccine. Revenues in the first nine months of 1999 included a non-refundable initial payment of $15.0 million from Wyeth, combined with other revenues from contract and research grants. Aviron and Wyeth are collaborating on the development and commercialization of FluMist(TM).
Operating expenses in the 2000 third quarter totaled $22.4 million, compared to $23.2 million for the 1999 third quarter. Operating expenses were $74.3 million for the first nine months of 2000, as compared with $57.4 million for the first nine months of 1999. Research and development costs decreased to $19.0 million in the 2000 third quarter from $19.6 million in the 1999 third quarter and totaled $54.0 million for the first nine months of 2000, as compared with $48.0 million in the first nine months of 1999. The decrease in research and development costs in the third quarter of 2000 was primarily due to one-time development expenses incurred in 1999, which did not recur in 2000. The increase in research and development costs for the first nine months of 2000 was primarily due to increases in development activities, documentation, validation and other commercial scale-up expenses associated with FluMist(TM).
In addition, we recognized a one-time, non-cash charge for the acquisition of in-process research and development in the amount of $10.9 million in the first quarter of 2000 due to the amendment of our agreement with the University of Michigan to accelerate the issuance of a warrant to the university. General, administrative and marketing costs decreased to $3.4 million in the 2000 third quarter from $3.6 million in the 1999 third quarter, and to $9.3 million for the first nine months of 2000, as compared to $9.4 million for the first nine months of 1999. The decrease was due to a modest reduction in infrastructure and support activities.
Cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term investments totaled $122.1 million at September 30, 2000, compared to $52.3 million at December 31, 1999. Cash needs to meet operating and capital expenditures during the first nine months of 2000 were offset by the receipt of net proceeds of $122.7 million from financing transactions which generated $18.0 million in the first quarter, $80.7 million in the second quarter and $24.0 million in the third quarter. Details of the third quarter transactions are discussed below.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101), which includes the SEC staff`s view on accounting for non-refundable up-front license fees received in connection with collaboration agreements. We have determined that a change in accounting policy is necessary for the $15.0 million up-front license fee received from Wyeth, recognized as revenue in the first quarter of 1999. Based on recent guidance from the SEC staff on the implementation of SAB 101, we expect to make this change in our accounting policy in the fourth quarter of 2000, which will result in a charge to operations for the cumulative effect of the change as of January 1, 2000. This amount will be recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue in future periods. Prior financial statements will not be restated.
Company events during the third quarter and early fourth quarter included several financings, personnel announcements, clinical developments and commercialization related activities.
Operations
On October 11, we announced that our UK subsidiary, Aviron UK Ltd., had agreed to acquire a 25-year lease from Celltech Group plc on approximately eight acres of land in Speke, UK where Aviron intends to utilize an existing 45,000 square foot structure on the property to build a new FluMist(TM) manufacturing facility.
Also on October 11, we announced a restructuring of our contract manufacturing agreement with Evans Vaccines, Ltd., a division of PowderJect Pharmaceuticals plc, transferring responsibility for bulk manufacture of FluMist(TM) in the Speke facility to Aviron UK Ltd. through mid 2006.
Senior Leadership
In the third quarter, we made the following appointments: David M. Wonnacott, Ph.D. to the position of vice president, regulatory affairs, Charles F. Katzer to the position of vice president, manufacturing and Harry B. Greenberg, M.D. to the position of senior vice president, research and development and chief scientific officer.
On August 30, we announced the election of R. Gordon Douglas, Jr., M.D. to our board of directors.
Financing Transactions
In four separate private equity-financing transactions from July 11 through October 3, we sold 949,627 shares of our common stock to Acqua Wellington North American Equities Fund, Ltd. at an average price of $33.70 per share for aggregate proceeds of $32.0 million ($24.0 million in the third quarter and $8.0 million in October).
On October 12, we sold 450,000 shares of our common stock in a private equity transaction to Biotech Target S.A. for total proceeds of $21.6 million, or $48.00 per share.
Clinical
On September 29, we announced that we were awarded a $2.7 million Challenge Grant from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases of the National Institutes of Health to develop a vaccine to protect against possible pandemic influenza viruses.
On October 25, we announced the initiation of a Phase 2 clinical trial of an investigational vaccine against Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, a cause of infectious mononucleosis, being developed under our license with SmithKline Beecham Biologicals (SBB). The initiation of this trial triggered a $1.5 million payment from SBB to Aviron. Pursuant to an agreement with ARCH Development, we will pay 25 percent of each milestone received from SBB for the EBV product to ARCH Development.
Aviron is a biopharmaceutical company based in Mountain View, California, focused on the prevention of disease through innovative vaccine technology.
Actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this release. Factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, failure of clinical trials to demonstrate safety and efficacy, inability to manufacture the vaccine and assessment by regulatory agencies that the company`s future license applications for its nasal influenza vaccine are incomplete or inadequate to approve the product for marketing to one or more target populations. Additional information concerning factors that could cause such a difference is contained in Aviron`s SEC filings, including its S-3 Registration Statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
