Letter to
Shareholders
[PHOTO]
Dear
Fellow Shareholders,
In
the second quarter of 2004, Biovail Corporation continued to move toward its long-term goal of becoming a leading, fully integrated specialty pharmaceutical company with high growth and
profit potential.
Biovail
has reached the point in its evolution where focusing on improving operational efficiencies, management information and financial systems is paramount.
To
this end, Biovail recently made several key changes to the composition of its executive group. The Company has hired Charles Rowland as Senior Vice-President and Chief Financial
Officer, succeeding Brian Crombie, who remains with Biovail as Senior Vice-President, Strategic Development. Rick Keefer, who has played a key role in helping to build our
U.S. operation, succeeds Kristine Peterson as Senior Vice-President, Commercial Operations. The company has also hired John Sebben to become Vice-President, Global
Manufacturing.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Biovail's
financial results for the second quarter of 2004 demonstrate that the Company's commercial operations are executing well against plan.
Total
product sales for second quarter 2004 were up 25% year over year to a record $197.2 million. Product sales for the first half of 2004 were 31% higher for the corresponding
six-month period in 2003. As a percentage of total
corporate revenue, products sales were 96% and 95% in the second quarter and first half of 2004 respectively, compared to 73% and 70% in the second quarter and first of half of 2003 respectively.
These increases can be attributed to the ongoing strength of Wellbutrin XL and Cardizem LA.
Net
income for the second quarter of 2004 was $44.2 million, compared with a net loss of $4.9 million for the corresponding period in 2003. For the first half of 2004, net income was
$65.3 million, compared with $52.7 million for the corresponding 2003 period.
Second
quarter 2004 U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share of 28 cents were at the high end of Biovail's guidance. This compares to a loss of $0.03 in the second quarter of 2003 and diluted EPS
of 13 cents for the first quarter of this year.
BIOVAIL 2004 SECOND QUARTER REPORT 2
PRODUCTS
Since
the Wellbutrin XL launch in September 2003 through our marketing partner, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), bupropion's share of the anti-depressant market has expanded by 18.5%. At the
end of June 2004, Wellbutrin XL had captured 49.6% of new prescriptions written for the Wellbutrin brand (including generics). In the second quarter of 2004, GSK's net sales of Wellbutrin XL
exceeded the first-tier threshold for the first time, thereby increasing Biovail's supply price to the second tier of the manufacturing and supply agreement.
The
collective performance of our promoted brands in the U.S. shows a clear focus and steady demand throughout the final phases of field sales optimization, realignment and staffing
initiatives.
Cardizem
LA continues to achieve weekly prescription volumes and market share records throughout the second quarter of the year. Total prescriptions were up 8% in the second quarter of 2004 relative
to the first quarter of 2004. As such, Cardizem LA held a 7.4% share of the once-daily diltiazem market in the second quarter of 2004, compared with 6.8% for the first quarter of 2004.
Again, it's important to note that recent weekly trends are reflecting the early impact of Biovail's sales and marketing strategies. We expect the efforts of our specialty sales forces to continue to
drive growth for Cardizem LA in the second half of 2004.
In
Canada, performance was driven by the strong performance of Wellbutrin SR and Tiazac. Wellbutrin SR's prescription volume in the second quarter of 2004 was 18.8% higher than for the corresponding
period in 2003. Total prescriptions for Tiazac in the second quarter of 2004 were up 25.5% over the corresponding period in 2003, making Tiazac the fastest-growing calcium channel blocker in Canada.
REGULATORY HIGHLIGHTS
Biovail
continued to build on the momentum it generated during the first quarter of the year with respect to product development. During the second quarter of 2004, we filed two New Drug
Applications with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration one for Glumetza with our partner, Depomed and one for a novel formulation of citalopram for the
treatment of depression.
To
date in 2004, Biovail has filed four new drug applications for novel therapeutics with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and completed one New Drug Submission with the
Therapeutic Products Directorate (TPD). We anticipate at least one additional regulatory submission before the end of the year.
Biovail
expects to receive approval from the TPD for Tiazac XC for the treatment of hypertension in the second half of 2004. Building on the success of Tiazac, Canada's leading once-daily
diltiazem formulation, Tiazac XC features a new extended-release delivery system designed for bedtime administration, resulting in improved blood-pressure control during the early morning hours.
3 BIOVAIL 2004 SECOND QUARTER REPORT
OPERATIONS
During
the past 18 months, Biovail has focused on making strategic investments to consolidate our operations in the U.S. The consolidation of our U.S. commercial operations and
select R&D functions at our Bridgewater, N.J. facility is complete. Our U.S. sales force now has more than 600 sales professionals. It includes 475 primary-care representatives and
two 63-member sales forces one for cardiology and one for dermatology and OB-GYNs. Biovail intends to leverage this important asset to
increase our market share in the second half of 2004.
Activities
at Biovail's flagship manufacturing facility in Steinbach, Manitoba, are running at their highest levels ever. Our transition to 24/7 production and 12-hour shifts is now
complete. In Steinbach we now have 570 employees up from 350 a year ago. We are now capable of producing in excess of 1.7 billion dosage units per year;
more than twice our capacity of 670 million units just a year ago. Our facilities in Dorado and Carolina, Puerto Rico continue to optimize their manufacturing operations and continue to provide
Biovail's diltiazem requirements.
LOOKING AHEAD
To
date, in 2004, management and employees at Biovail have worked diligently to provide tangible, measurable signs of progress.
Biovail's
development pipeline is currently the deepest in the Company's history. Beyond the recent regulatory filings in 2004, our formulation operations in Chantilly, Virginia and Dublin, Ireland
continue their development efforts for novel formulations of several products, including venlafaxine, bupropion, eprosartan, enalapril, metoprolol, zolpidem and combination products involving
simvastatin.
Our
strategy for the second half of the year remains unchanged to build on the solid, measurable success realized in the first six months of the year.
