(1) NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BUSINESS RISKS

BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (the Company or BioMarin), a Delaware corporation, develops and commercializes innovative biopharmaceuticals for serious diseases and medical conditions. BioMarin selects product candidates for diseases and conditions that represent a significant unmet medical need, have well-understood biology and provide an opportunity to be first-to-market or offer a significant benefit over existing products. The Company’s product portfolio is comprised of five approved products and multiple clinical and pre-clinical product candidates. The Company’s approved products are Vimizim (elosulfase alfa), Naglazyme (galsulfase), Kuvan (sapropterin dihydrochloride), Aldurazyme (laronidase) and Firdapse (amifampridine phosphate).

Through June 30, 2015, the Company had accumulated losses of approximately $999.3 million. The Company expects to continue to finance future cash needs that exceed its operating activities primarily through its current cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments, and to the extent necessary, through proceeds from equity or debt financings, loans and collaborative agreements with corporate partners. If the Company elects to increase its spending on development programs significantly above current long-term plans or enters into potential licenses and other acquisitions of complementary technologies, products or companies, the Company may need additional capital.

The Company is subject to a number of risks, including: the financial performance of Vimizim, Naglazyme, Kuvan, Aldurazyme and Firdapse; the potential need for additional financings; the Company’s ability to successfully commercialize its approved product candidates; the uncertainty of the Company’s research and development (R&D) efforts resulting in future successful commercial products; the Company’s ability to successfully obtain regulatory approval for new products; significant competition from larger organizations; reliance on the proprietary technology of others; dependence on key personnel; uncertain patent protection; dependence on corporate partners and collaborators; and possible restrictions on reimbursement from governmental agencies and healthcare organizations, as well as other changes in the health care industry.

 

 

(2) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for complete financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may be different from those estimates. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.

The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to the balance sheet date. Based on this evaluation, the Company is not aware of any events or transactions that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that would require recognition or disclosure in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

 

(3) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Reclassifications

Certain items in the Company’s prior year Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

(4) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Except as described below, there have been no new accounting pronouncements or changes to accounting pronouncements during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in Note 4 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2014, that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) deferred the effective date for Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, by one year. ASU 2014-09 will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, which for the Company is January 1, 2018. Early adoption is not permitted. The new standard can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of the change recognized at the date of the initial application in retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet selected a transition method.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, which for the Company is January 1, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented. The adoption of this standard will not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations and will result in a reclassification of the balance of deferred offering costs at the time of adoption. If the standard were adopted as of June 30, 2015, the reclassification would approximate $13.4 million.

 

 

(5) ACQUISITIONS

Prosensa Holding N.V.

On January 29 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Prosensa Holding N.V. (Prosensa), a public limited liability company organized under the laws of the Netherlands, for a total purchase price of $751.5 million. In connection with the acquisition of Prosensa, the Company recognized transaction costs of $9.7 million, of which $2.7 million and $7.0 million, respectively, was recognized in the year ended December 31, 2014 and the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Prosensa was an innovative biotechnology company engaged in the discovery and development of ribonucleic acid (RNA)-modulating therapeutics for the treatment of genetic disorders. Prosensa’s primary focus was on rare neuromuscular and neurodegenerative disorders with a large unmet medical need, including subsets of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), myotonic dystrophy and Huntington’s disease. Prosensa’s clinical portfolio of RNA-based product candidates was focused on the treatment of DMD. Each of Prosensa’s DMD compounds has been granted orphan drug status in the United States (the U.S.) and the European Union (the EU). Prosensa’s lead product, drisapersen, is currently under a rolling review as part of a rolling new drug application (NDA) with the Food and Drug Administration (the FDA). On April 27, 2015, the Company announced the completion of the rolling submission of the NDA to the FDA. The Company expects to file a marketing authorization application (MAA) for drisapersen with the European Medicines Agency (the EMA) in the summer of 2015.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except per share amounts or as otherwise disclosed)

 

In connection with its acquisition of Prosensa, the Company made cash payments totaling $680.1 million which were comprised of $620.7 million for approximately 96.8% of Prosensa’s ordinary shares (the Prosensa Shares), $38.6 million for the options that vested pursuant to the Company’s tender offer for the Prosensa Shares and $20.8 million to the remaining Prosensa shareholders that did not tender their shares under the tender offer. Additionally, for each Prosensa Share, the Company issued one non-transferable contingent value right (the CVR), which represents the contractual right to receive a cash payment of up to $4.14 per Prosensa Share, or an aggregate of approximately $160.0 million (undiscounted), upon the achievement of certain product approval milestones. The fair value of the CVRs and acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) on the acquisition date was $71.4 million and $772.8 million, respectively. The acquisition date fair value of the CVRs and IPR&D was estimated by applying a probability-based income approach utilizing an appropriate discount rate. Key assumptions include a discount rate and various probability factors. See Note 15 to these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding fair value measurements of the CVRs which is included in contingent acquisition consideration payable.

The following table presents the allocation of the purchase consideration for the Prosensa acquisition, including the CVRs, based on fair value.

 

 

A substantial portion of the assets acquired consisted of IPR&D related to Prosensa’s product candidates drisapersen and exons PRO 044 and PRO 045, which are considered to be indefinite-lived assets until completion or abandonment of the associated research and development (R&D) efforts. The Company determined that the estimated acquisition-date fair value of the intangible assets related to drisapersen and Prosensa’s other primary product candidates, PRO 044 and PRO 045 was $731.8 million, $16.9 million and $24.1 million, respectively.

The deferred tax liability relates to the tax impact of future amortization or possible impairments associated with the identified intangible assets acquired, which are not deductible for tax purposes.

Prosensa’s results of operations prior to and since the acquisition date are insignificant to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

See Note 10 to these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the indefinite-lived intangible assets.

San Rafael Corporate Center

In March 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the real estate commonly known as the San Rafael Corporate Center (SRCC), located in San Rafael, California. SRCC is a multi-building, commercial property where, prior to the acquisition, the Company was leasing a certain portion of the space for its headquarters and related operating activities. The purpose of this acquisition is to allow for future expansion of the Company’s corporate headquarters to accommodate anticipated headcount growth. The acquisition of SRCC has been accounted for as a business combination because the building and the in-place leases met the definition of a business in Accounting Standards Codification 805 (ASC 805), Business Combinations. The fair value of the consideration paid for SRCC was $116.5 million, all of which was paid in cash.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of assets acquired as of the date of acquisition:

 

 

The fair values assigned to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired are based on management’s estimates and assumptions using the information that was available as of the date of the acquisition. The Company believes that the information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired.

The following table sets forth the fair value of the components of the identifiable intangible assets acquired by asset class as of the date of acquisition:

 

 

The value of any in-place leases is estimated to be equal to the property owners’ avoidance of costs necessary to release the property for a lease term equal to the remaining primary in-place lease term and the value of investment-grade tenancy, which is derived by estimating, based on a review of the market, the cost to be borne by a property owner to replicate a market lease for the remaining in-place term. These costs consist of: (i) rent lost during downtime (e.g., assumed periods of vacancy), (ii) estimated expenses that would be incurred by the property owner during periods of vacancy, (iii) rent concessions (e.g., free rent), (iv) leasing commissions and (v) tenant improvement allowances. The Company determined these values using management’s estimates along with third-party appraisals. The Company will amortize the capitalized value of in-place lease intangible assets to expense over the remaining initial term of each lease. The Company will amortize the capitalized value of above market leases to expense over the remaining lives of the underlying leases.

The amount of third-party tenant revenue (included in the line item Royalty, License and Other Revenues) included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $0.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively, compared to $1.4 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The amount of net income/loss from third-party tenants for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was insignificant to the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss.

SRCC’s results of operations prior to the acquisition were insignificant to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Included in Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2014 are transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of SRCC of $0.3 million. The Company recognized a gain of $8.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 due to the early termination of the Company’s pre-existing lease and the realization of the remaining balance in deferred rent and the reversal of the related asset retirement obligation upon acquisition of SRCC. $2.7 million and $6.1 million of the gain were included in SG&A and R&D expenses, respectively, which is consistent with the Company’s allocation practices for facility costs for this previously leased space.

 

 

(6) STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

In January 2015, the Company sold 9,775,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $93.25 per share in an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement previously filed with the SEC. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $888.3 million from this public offering after underwriter’s discount and offering costs.

 

 

(7) NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Potentially issuable shares of common stock include shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding employee stock option awards, common stock issuable under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP), unvested restricted stock, common stock held by the Company’s Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the NQDC) and contingent issuances of common stock related to convertible debt.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (in thousands of common shares):

 

 

In addition to the equity instruments included in the table above, the table below presents potential shares of common stock that were excluded from the computation as they were anti-dilutive using the treasury stock method (in thousands of common shares):

The effect of the Company’s 0.75% senior subordinated convertible notes due in 2018 (the 2018 Notes) and the Company’s 1.50% senior subordinated convertible notes due in 2020 (the 2020 Notes and together with the 2018 Notes, the Notes) was excluded from the diluted net loss per common share since they may be settled in cash or shares at the Company’s option and the Company’s current intention is to settle up to the principal amount of the converted notes in cash and any excess conversion value (conversion spread) in shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 the 2018 Notes and the 2020 Notes had no effect on diluted net loss per share as the Company’s stock price did not exceed the conversion price of $94.15 per share for the Notes. Although the Company’s stock price exceeded the conversion price at June 30, 2015, the potential shares issuable under the Notes were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as they were anti-dilutive using the if-converted method.

 

 

(8) INVESTMENTS

All investments were classified as available-for-sale at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The amortized cost, gross unrealized holding gains or losses, and fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities by major security type at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are summarized in the tables below:

 

 

 

The Company has two investments in marketable equity securities measured using quoted prices in their respective active markets that are collectively considered strategic investments. As of June 30, 2015, the fair value of the Company’s marketable equity securities was $30.1 million, which included an unrealized gain of $24.7 million. As of December 31, 2014, the fair value of the Company’s marketable equity securities was $30.8 million, which included an unrealized gain of $18.3 million. These investments are recorded in Other Assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The fair values of available-for-sale securities by contractual maturity were as follows:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except per share amounts or as otherwise disclosed)

 

Impairment assessments are made at the individual security level each reporting period. When the fair value of an investment is less than its cost at the balance sheet date, a determination is made as to whether the impairment is other-than-temporary and, if it is other-than-temporary, an impairment loss is recognized in earnings equal to the difference between the investment’s amortized cost and fair value at such date. As of June 30, 2015, some of the Company’s investments were in an unrealized loss position. However, the Company has the ability and intent to hold all investments that have been in a continuous loss position until maturity or recovery, thus no other-than-temporary impairment is deemed to have occurred.

See Note 15 to these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding the fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities.

 

 

(9) GOODWILL

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if the Company becomes aware of any events occurring or changes in the circumstances that would indicate a reduction in the fair value of the goodwill below its carrying amount.

The following table represents the changes in goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2015:

 

 

 

(10) INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consisted of the following:

 

 

Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

IPR&D assets are considered to be indefinite-lived until the completion or abandonment of the associated R&D efforts. During the period the assets are considered indefinite-lived, they will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if the Company becomes aware of any events occurring or changes in circumstances that would indicate a reduction in the fair value of the IPR&D assets below their respective carrying amounts. If and when development is complete, which generally occurs if and when regulatory approval to market a product is obtained, the associated assets would be deemed finite-lived and would then be amortized based on their respective estimated useful lives at that point in time. The increase in indefinite-lived intangible assets is attributed to the IPR&D assets acquired with Prosensa.

See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 for additional information related to the Company’s Intangible Assets.

(11) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment, net consisted of the following:

 

Construction in-process primarily includes costs related to the Company’s significant in-process projects at its campus in San Rafael, California and manufacturing plant in Shanbally, Ireland.

Depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $12.3 million and $23.7 million, respectively, of which $3.7 million and $7.3 million, respectively, was capitalized into inventory. Depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $10.4 million and $20.0 million, respectively, of which $2.4 million and $5.3 million, respectively, was capitalized into inventory.

Capitalized interest related to the Company’s property, plant and equipment purchases for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was insignificant.

 

 

(12) SUPPLEMENTAL BALANCE SHEET INFORMATION

Inventory consisted of the following:

 

Other Current Assets consisted of the following:
