NEW HAVEN, Conn., Aug. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Biohaven Pharmaceutical Holding Company Ltd. (NYSE: BHVN), a biopharmaceutical company with a portfolio of innovative, late-stage product candidates targeting neurological diseases including rare disorders, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, and provided a review of recent accomplishments and anticipated upcoming milestones.
Vlad Coric, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Biohaven commented, "Once again, the Biohaven team has outperformed business expectations for our CGRP receptor antagonist platform. Demand for NURTEC ODT is strong and our differentiated product is changing the paradigm by which migraine is treated. We are extremely proud of the success of our platform over the quarter, unlocking a sizable opportunity through the landmark approval of NURTEC ODT for both the acute and preventive treatment of migraine, while simultaneously bolstering innovation, and advancing clinical programs outside of our CGRP receptor antagonist franchise."
Dr. Coric continued, "We believe NURTEC ODT will continue to drive impressive revenue growth, but the true value is in the improved quality of life for those individuals who now have a one-stop solution for acute and preventive treatment of migraine. We are excited to pursue the science of CGRP antagonism with our broad platform of CGRP assets in pain adjacencies and non-migraine indications that we believe are driven by neuroimmune/neuroinflammatory interactions. The life-cycle management studies of NURTEC ODT and our other clinical CGRP-targeting assets including intranasal zavegepant, oral zavegepant, and BHV-3100 will pursue multiple indications with the goal of growing an industry leading CGRP franchise."
Second Quarter and Recent Business Highlights
Continued strong uptake of NURTEC ODT –During the second quarter of 2021, the Company saw significant net revenue growth, more than doubling over the first quarter of 2021, driven by improvement in both net price realization and volume. We believe there continues to be a significant market opportunity for oral CGRP targeting agents ahead, with a potential $4-5 billion annual market in the U.S. alone for the acute treatment of migraine. We will continue to invest in NURTEC's long term success, driving its growth outside of the U.S. and continuing to expand commercial payer coverage. Despite the industry-wide commercial challenges throughout the pandemic, NURTEC ODT has now achieved over 875,000 prescriptions and over 44,000 unique prescribers to date and continues to exceed revenue expectations.
FDA Approves NURTEC ODT (rimegepant) for Preventive Treatment of Migraine – In May, the Company announced that the FDA approved NURTEC ODT for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine. This milestone approval makes NURTEC ODT the first and only medication approved to both treat and prevent migraine attacks, expanding the product label to include the use of NURTEC ODT 75 mg up to 18 doses per month. In the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial, NURTEC rapidly and effectively prevented migraine, reducing migraine days by 30% after just 1 week of every other day treatment; by 3 months of treatment, approximately half of patients experienced at least a 50% reduction in moderate-to-severe migraine days.
United States Patent and Trademark Office awards ODT drug product patent for NURTEC ODT – In July, the Company received notice that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has awarded a patent directed to our drug product, NURTEC ODT (rimegepant), as well as other CGRP inhibitors, in an ODT form. This patent will expire in March 2039, not including patent term adjustment or any potential patent term extension. The patent is also pending in major market countries throughout the world including countries in Europe, Japan and China. This issuance of this patent extends the Company's intellectual property protection for our CGRP platform until 2039.
Biohaven and Sosei Heptares collaboration initiates Phase 1 trial with novel small-molecule CGRP antagonist – In June, Biohaven and the Sosei Group Corporation dosed the first patient with BHV-3100 in a Phase 1 clinical study. BHV-3100 is a novel, small molecule CGRP receptor antagonist discovered by Sosei Heptares, which has demonstrated promising and differentiated properties to target CGRP-mediated disorders in preclinical development. The trial is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, first-in-human study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a single ascending dose and multiple ascending doses of subcutaneous BHV-3100. The trial aims to enroll 88 subjects at a single center in the UK and is expected to complete in 2022.
Kishen Mehta appointed to Board of Directors – In June, Mr. Kishen Mehta joined Biohaven's board. Mr. Mehta has approximately 15 years of experience in the financial industry and is currently a Portfolio Manager at Suvretta Capital Management, LLC, responsible for its healthcare-focused investment strategy, Averill, which attempts to identify companies that are disruptive to the healthcare industry. Previously, Mr. Mehta served as a strategic advisor to Biohaven Pharmaceuticals, where he advised the company on various business development, capital structure, and communication strategies. Mr. Mehta also had roles as a portfolio manager at Surveyor Capital, a Citadel LLC strategy, where he managed a portfolio focused on global small, mid, and large-capitalization biotechnology, pharmaceutical, specialty pharmaceutical, medical device, and healthcare services companies. Prior to Surveyor, Mr. Mehta was an analyst at Adage Capital where he evaluated and participated in numerous mezzanine and pre-IPO private healthcare investments. Mr. Mehta started his career as a mergers and acquisitions analyst at Evercore Partners, where he focused on life sciences.
George Clark, CPA appointed VP, Chief Accounting Officer – In August, the Company appointed Mr. George Clark as its Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer. Mr. Clark has been with Biohaven since 2018 and serving as Vice President of Finance. Prior to joining Biohaven, Mr. Clark held roles with KPMG, LLP as a Senior Audit Manager; The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. in external reporting and investment accounting; and began his career at PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP. Mr. Clark is a graduate of the University of Connecticut where he earned Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in Accounting and is a Certified Public Accountant.
Upcoming Milestones:
Biohaven is continuing to support the launch of NURTEC ODT for the acute and preventive treatment of migraine, as well as develop our product candidates through clinical and preclinical programs in a number of common and rare disorders. The Company expects to reach significant pipeline milestones with its CGRP receptor antagonists, glutamate modulators, and myeloperoxidase inhibitors in the coming quarters.
Biohaven expects to:
- Continue commercialization of NURTEC ODT for the dual indications of the acute and preventive treatment of migraine and advance regulatory efforts outside the U.S.
- Report topline of intranasal zavegepant in the acute treatment of migraine in the second half of 2021, followed by filing by year end if positive results are achieved.
- Report topline of verdiperstat for the treatment of MSA in the third quarter of 2021.
- Complete enrollment of verdiperstat for the treatment of ALS in the fourth quarter of 2021.
- Report topline of troriluzole in Spinocerebellar Ataxia in the first half of 2022.
- Report topline of troriluzole in OCD in the second half of 2022.
Second Quarter Financial Results
Product Revenues, Net: Net product revenue was $92.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of $83.2 million in net product revenues is due to both increased NURTEC ODT sales volume and improvements in net price realization due to decreases in sales allowances during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company began selling NURTEC ODT in March 2020. Sales allowances and accruals mostly consisted of patient affordability programs, distribution fees and rebates.
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses, including non-cash share-based compensation costs, were $77.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $42.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of $35.0 million was primarily due to an increase in both late-stage product candidates and preclinical research. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $9.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $2.8 million as compared to the same period in 2020.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses: SG&A expenses, including non-cash share-based compensation costs, were $170.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $124.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of $45.3 million was primarily due to increases in spending to support increased commercial sales of NURTEC ODT for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. Less than half of the SG&A expense was for commercial organization personnel costs, excluding non-cash share-based compensation expense. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $16.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $11.0 million as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in non-cash share-based compensation expense was primarily due to the amortization of the Company's annual equity incentive awards that were granted in the first quarter of 2021.
Net Loss: Biohaven reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2021, of $210.6 million, or $3.23 per share, compared to $180.9 million, or $3.08 per share for the same period in 2020. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $170.9 million, or $2.62 per share, compared to $150.0 million, or $2.55 per share for the same period in 2020. These non-GAAP adjusted net loss and non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share measures, more fully described below under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures," exclude non-cash share-based compensation charges, non-cash interest expense related to the accounting for mandatorily redeemable preferred shares and liability related to sale of future royalties, changes in the fair value of derivatives, gains or losses from equity method investment, collaboration and license upfront expenses, and accrued development milestone payments. A reconciliation of the GAAP financial results to non-GAAP financial results is included in the tables below.
Cash, Restricted Cash, and Marketable Securities: Cash, restricted cash, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2021, was $368.0 million, compared to $570.9 million as of March 31, 2021. In addition, the Company has access to $225.0 million in delayed draw term loans under the Sixth Street Financing Agreement, and $164.8 million in Series B preferred share forward contracts in quarterly cash proceeds until the fourth quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), and also certain non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, Biohaven has provided non-GAAP adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share, adjusted to exclude the items below. Non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. However, Biohaven believes the presentation of non-GAAP adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, provides investors with a more meaningful understanding of ongoing operating performance. These measures exclude (i) non-cash share-based compensation, which is substantially dependent on changes in the market price of common shares, (ii) interest expense related to the accounting for our mandatorily redeemable preferred shares and liability related to sale of future royalties, which are in excess of the actual interest owed, (iii) changes in the fair value of derivative liability, which does not correlate to actual cash payment obligations in the relevant periods, (iv) gains or losses from equity method investment, which are non-cash and based on the financial results and valuation of another company that we did not manage or control, (v) collaboration and license upfront expenses, which the Company does not believe are normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing, and (vi) non-routine accrued development milestone expenses.
Biohaven believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding Biohaven's results of operations. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with these non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of Biohaven's ongoing operating performance and are better able to compare Biohaven's performance between periods. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators Biohaven uses as a basis for evaluating performance, and planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation between these non-GAAP measures and the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided later in this press release.

About NURTEC ODT
NURTEC ODT (rimegepant) is the first and only calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist available in a quick-dissolve ODT formulation that is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura and the preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults. The activity of the neuropeptide CGRP is thought to play a causal role in migraine pathophysiology. NURTEC ODT is a CGRP receptor antagonist that works by reversibly blocking CGRP receptors, thereby inhibiting the biologic activity of the CGRP neuropeptide. The recommended dose of NURTEC ODT is 75 mg, taken as needed, up to once daily to treat or every other day to help prevent migraine attacks. For more information about NURTEC ODT, visit www.nurtec.com. The most common adverse reaction was nausea and abdominal pain/indigestion. Avoid concomitant administration of NURTEC ODT with strong inhibitors of CYP3A4, strong or moderate inducers of CYP3A or inhibitors of P-gp or BCRP. Avoid another dose of NURTEC ODT within 48 hours when it is administered with moderate inhibitors of CYP3A4.
Indication
NURTEC ODT orally disintegrating tablets is a prescription medicine that is used to treat migraine in adults. It is for the acute treatment of migraine attacks with or without aura and the preventive treatment of episodic migraine. It is not known if NURTEC ODT is safe and effective in children.
Important Safety Information
Do not take NURTEC ODT if you are allergic to NURTEC ODT (rimegepant) or any of its ingredients.
Before you take NURTEC ODT, tell your healthcare provider (HCP) about all your medical conditions, including if you:
- have liver problems,
- have kidney problems,
- are pregnant or plan to become pregnant,
