2013-04-18 20:02 3166

BEIJING, April 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sinovac Biotech Ltd. (NASDAQ: SVA), a leading provider of vaccines in China, announced today its unaudited fourth quarter and full year financial results for the period ended December 31, 2012.

Financial Highlights

  • Total sales were $19.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, a decrease of 10.4% from $21.1 million in the same period of 2011. Excluding sales of Panflu and Panflu.1 under the government stockpiling program in the fourth quarter of 2011, total sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 increased by 166.9% from $7.1 million in the same period of 2011. 2012 full year sales were $48.6 million, a decrease of 14.5% from $56.8 million in 2011. Excluding sales of Panflu and Panflu.1 under the government stockpiling program in 2011, the regular sales, including Healive, Bilive and Anflu, mumps vaccine and RabEnd, increased by 38.6% to $48.6 million in 2012.

  • Net loss attributable to common stockholders in the fourth quarter of 2012 was $5.4 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share. Full year 2012 net loss attributable to common stockholders was $15.7 million, or $0.29 per basic and diluted share. The operating expense for the fourth quarter and full year included a $1.5 million impairment charge on long-lived assets related to the production of animal vaccine.
  • Cash and cash equivalents totaled $90.9 million as of December 31, 2012, compared to $104.3 million as of December 31, 2011.

Recent Business Highlights

  • In March 2013, Sinovac announced preliminary top-line data from its phase III clinical trial assessing the efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of the Company's proprietary enterovirus 71 ("EV71") vaccine against hand, foot and mouth disease ("HFMD"). The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of the EV71 vaccine in the prevention of HFMD caused by EV71 in infants of between 6 to 35 months of age. The preliminary phase III data showed that Sinovac's EV71 vaccine was 95% efficacious against HFMD caused by EV71.
  • In April 2013, Fengcai Zhu, Deputy Director of the Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Prevention and Control, and co-principal investigator of Sinovac's phase III trial on EV71 vaccine, presented data regarding the efficacy and safety of the Company's proprietary EV71 vaccine against HFMD at the 13th Annual World Vaccine Congress & Expo.
  • Also in April, 2013, we were granted a license from COFEPRIS, the regulatory authority of Mexico's Ministry of Health, to sell Anflu in Mexico.

Dr. Weidong Yin, Chairman, President and CEO, commented, "2012 was a transformative year for Sinovac as we focused on continuing to advance our vaccine development pipeline. We invested significantly in research and development this year for our lead candidate, our proprietary EV71 vaccine against HFMD. We are well positioned for medium- to long-term growth as this vaccine progresses through the regulatory process and approaches launch."

Dr. Yin continued, "EV71 represents a significant unmet medical need in China with over 2.16 million cases reported in 2012, from which 560 fatalities were reported, Most of serve cases of EV71 infection were seen in children under 5 years old, which totaled approximately 80 million in China. Unfortunately, no EV71-specific treatment and prevention method currently exists. With knowledge of this unmet need, we commenced development of an EV71 vaccine in 2008, and recently concluded the phase III efficacy trial for this candidate. In March 2013, the unblinded top-line results from the phase III clinical trial for the vaccine demonstrated a 95% efficacy rate against HFMD caused by EV71. We expect our EV71 vaccine, once commercialized, will provide a solution to this unmet medical need in China."

Dr. Yin concluded, "I am also very pleased with the 38.6% increase in regular vaccine sales for 2012. Growth was achieved across all three of our market segments: private pay market, public market and international market. Sinovac's core products, inclusive of Healive, Bilive, and Anflu, contributed to our sales growth, with Bilive and Healive sales in the private market in China being the primary contributors to both the rate and magnitude of the sales increase. Our financial results benefited from a successful price increase for both of these products, as well as higher volume. Our well-trained, experienced sales team continues to drive growth in our commercialized vaccine products, but also has taken significant strides to increase efficacy in our sales and marketing infrastructure, positioning us well for future vaccine product launches, such as the EV71 vaccine."

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $19.0 million, a decrease of 10.4% from $21.1 million in the same period of 2011. Fourth quarter 2012 sales of our regular products, Healive, Bilive, Anflu, mumps vaccine and RabEnd, increased by 166.9% to $19.0 million from $7.1 million in the same period of 2011. The significant increase in sales of core products in the fourth quarter was driven by: 1) expansion of Healive to a new territory of Jiangsu Province in the fourth quarter; 2) the successful implementation of a new sales strategy to achieve both volume growth and average selling price increase for hepatitis vaccines; and 3) higher Anflu sales in the fourth quarter compared to other regular years due to a later start of the Anflu sales season in 2012. 2011 sales included recognition of approximately $14 million revenue from Panflu and Panflu.1 vaccines stockpiled by the Chinese government in 2010. These two products are not for regular sales, since they were produced upon government order and subject to the government decision of using the vaccines within its shelf life if there was any flu pandemic caused by H1N1 and/or H5N1. The Company's revenue recognition requirements were not met until the fourth quarter of 2011. And in 2012, there was no revenue recognized for either Panflu or Panflu.1.

Compared with the fourth quarter of 2011, the gross profit margin for the fourth quarter of 2012 decreased from 62.0% to 54.1%. The higher gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2011 was due to the recognition of $14 million revenue from H1N1 vaccine stockpiling, which has a higher gross profit margin than other vaccines.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $12.8 million, compared to $5.9 million in the same period of 2011. The increase in SG&A was largely due to an increase in G&A, although both selling expense and general and administration expense increased. The increase of G&A expense was resulted from the increased expenses incurred for validation, commissioning, and trial production for the dedicated production facility for our EV71 vaccine at the Changping site, Beijing, and the preparation for GMP inspection by the government authorities of our existing manufacturing facilities in both the Changping and Shangdi sites in Beijing for compliance with China's 2010 GMP guidelines.

The R&D expense for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $1.3 million, a $1 million decrease from $2.3 million for the same period in 2011, due to lower EV71 clinical trial expense as the trial approaching its end.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of licenses and permits for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $0.5 million, compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2011.

For the fourth quarter of 2012, an impairment charge of $1.5 million on the long-lived assets including plant and building, machinery and equipments related to the animal vaccine production was made.

Net loss attributable to stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $5.4 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net income of $2.8 million, or $0.05 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2011.

Total revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 was $48.6 million, a decrease of 14.5% from $56.8 million reported in 2011. Excluding the revenue recognized on the government stockpiling of Panflu and Panflu.1 in 2010, sales of our regular products, Healive, Bilive and Anflu, mumps vaccine and RabEnd, increased by 38.6% to $48.6 million in 2012 from $35.1 million in 2011.

Gross profit margin was 60.7% in 2012, a decline from 62.8% in 2011. Excluding the impact to sales and cost of sales in both years by of Panflu and Panflu.1, the gross margin of regular vaccine products increased to 63.7% in 2012 from 57.7% in 2011.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in 2012 were $31.7 million, compared to $22.4 million in 2011. The increase in SG&A was largely due to an increase in G&A, although both selling expense and general and administration expense increased. The increase of G&A expense was due to the increased cost incurred on the validation of the new facilities in Changping site and preparation for new GMP compliance inspection of our existing manufacturing facilities in both Changping and Shangdi sites.

Research and development expenses in 2012 increased to $17.0 million from $9.0 million in 2011. The increase was mainly due to expense incurred in 2012 in connection with the EV71 phase III clinical trial.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of licenses and permits in 2012 was $1.6 million, compared to $1.4 million in 2011. The higher depreciation in 2012 was mainly due to the additional depreciation on property, plant and equipment of the Changping site.

The Company recorded loss on disposal and impairment of property, plant and equipment of $2.2 million as operating expense, in which $1.5 million was for animal vaccine production related assets and $0.5 million was for human vaccine production related assets.

Net loss attributable to stockholders in 2012 was $15.7 million, or $0.29 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.8 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share in 2011.

As of December 31, 2012, cash and cash equivalents totaled $90.9 million, compared to $104.3 million as of December 31, 2011. Net cash used in operating activities was $16.6 million in 2012, which primarily resulted from payment made for EV71 clinical trial and validation of the new facilities in Changping, Beijing and new GMP inspection preparation expenses. Net cash used in investing activities was $16.2 million, which primarily resulted from payment for the purchase of property, plant and equipment for the Changping site. Net cash provided by financing activities was $17.3 million in 2012. The Company maintained a strong cash balance despite significant expenditure on the phase III clinical trial of EV71 vaccine candidate and investment in its production facilities. In order to commercialize other pipeline products, the Company may continue to explore new sources of financing when appropriate.

Correction of Unaudited Financials in Prior Quarterly Release

In the second quarter of 2012, the Company assessed there was reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to several government grants were fulfilled and recognized $1.4 million and $1.5 million of government grants as income for the three and six months periods ended June, 30, 2012, respectively. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company determined that government grants of $0.98 million (RMB 6.2 million) related to the purchase of equipment that should have been recorded as deferred government grants with the balance applied to reduce depreciation expense of the related equipment over their remaining useful lives. As a result, the amount of government grants recognized as income should be reduced by $0.98 million for the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2012, and $0.98 million for the nine months periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The depreciation expense should also be reduced by $11,679 and $11,679 for the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2012, and $36,646 and $46,636 for the three and nine months periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Net cash used from operating activities remained unchanged, because the adjustments on net loss, depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of licenses and permits, and the recognized government grant income in operating activities did not affect cash. Corresponding corrections were made for both the unaudited fourth quarter and full year 2012 financial statements. The corrections to earning releases that were issued in the affected quarters in 2012 are presented in the tables below. Investors should no longer rely upon the previously released unaudited financial statements for the periods and any earnings releases or other communications relating to these periods.

About Sinovac

Sinovac Biotech Ltd. is a China-based biopharmaceutical company that focuses on the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of vaccines that protect against human infectious diseases including hepatitis A and B, seasonal influenza, H5N1 pandemic influenza (avian flu), H1N1 influenza (swine flu) and mumps, as well as animal rabies vaccine for canines. The Company recently concluded the phase III clinical trial for enterovirus 71 (against hand, foot and mouth disease).

Sinovac sells its vaccines mainly in China and exports selected vaccines to Mongolia, Nepal, and the Philippines. Sinovac was also granted a license to commercialize seasonal flu vaccine in Mexico.
