Corporate development news

In the month of February the marketing authorizations for Signifor and Signifor LAR in the U.S. were transferred to Recordati Rare Diseases Inc. and direct marketing of these products on this market started.

Also, and as per the agreement with Novartis, the marketing authorizations for Isturisa were transferred to Recordati Rare Diseases both in the United States and in Europe, in March and April respectively, and the product was launched with initial sales in the second quarter in the U.S. and in France. Furthermore, in March, the Japanese New Drug Application (JNDA) was submitted to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare seeking marketing approval for osilodrostat.

The active substance of Isturisa is osilodrostat, a cortisol synthesis inhibitor. Osilodrostat works by inhibiting 11-beta-hydroxylase, an enzyme responsible for the final step of cortisol biosynthesis in the adrenal gland. The benefits of Isturisa, demonstrated in the LINC 3 clinical trial and now also confirmed by the LINC 4 trial, are its ability to control or normalise cortisol levels in adult CS patients with a manageable safety profile, making this product a valuable treatment option for patients with Cushing's syndrome. Both the European Commission and the FDA confirmed the orphan drug status of Isturisa and granted approval respectively for the treatment of endogenous Cushing's syndrome in adults (in EU) and for the treatment of patients with Cushing's disease, for whom pituitary surgery is not an option or has not been curative (in USA).

Management Comments

"Despite the first half having been impacted by the COVID-19 epidemiological emergency, net revenue increases and both operating income and net income grow significantly and are in line with expectations thanks to the positive contribution of the new products and the reduction of expenses," stated Andrea Recordati, CEO. "The second quarter of 2020 saw an intensification of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in all geographical areas in which the Group operates. The restrictions on the movement of people, transport, production, commerce, were progressively reinforced. Although pharmaceutical operations were allowed to continue in order to ensure the availability of drugs for the population, the restrictions inevitably affected our markets of reference mainly due to fewer visits to doctors and diagnostic procedures, a reduction of minor surgeries as well as lower incidence of mild infectious disease resulting from the diminished circulation and interaction between people," continued Andrea Recordati. "While complying with all the measures necessary to ensure the health safety of its personnel, Recordati has continued its production and distribution activities without interruption and has adopted measures to guarantee the continued availability on the market of its products and enable the continued growth of the Group".

Finally, Andrea Recordati said, "Based on an assumed gradual return to more normal operations, we expect to achieve, for the full year 2020, revenues of around € 1,500 million, below estimates issued at the beginning of the year, EBITDA(1) of between € 580 and € 590 million and adjusted net income(2) of between € 408 and € 418 million, in line with previous plan estimates, thus confirming profit margin growth over the previous year. Finally, based on the encouraging initial sales of Isturisa, mainly in the USA, we estimate that this product could reach, at peak, total sales of between € 300 and 350 million with potential further upside from expansion of indication to Cushing's syndrome in the USA and expansion in new territories, confirming its importance for our future growth".
