Mr. Kåre Schultz, Teva's President and CEO, said, "As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the world and our industry, our employees continue to work together to meet the needs of our customers and patients, all while we remain focused on our long-term goals and laying the foundation for future growth.

"We have improved our profitability and reduced our net debt to $23.2 billion. We have also seen solid performance from our key growth drivers: the biosimilar Truxima® increased its market share to 26%, AUSTEDO® continued its year-over-year growth, and AJOVY® solidified its market share in the U.S. and continues to expand in Europe. Based on our results and expectations for the remainder of the year, we are reaffirming our guidance."

First Quarter 2021 Consolidated Results

Revenues in the first quarter of 2021 were $3,982 million, a decrease of 9% or 10% in local currency terms, compared to the first quarter of 2020. This decrease was mainly due to lower revenues from generic, OTC and respiratory products and from COPAXONE in our Europe segment, lower revenues from Anda, COPAXONE and BENDEKA/TREANDA in our North America segment, lower revenues from Japan resulting from the divestment of a majority of the generic and operational assets of our Japanese business venture, as well as regulatory price reductions and generic competition to off-patented products in Japan, partially offset by higher revenues from generic products and AUSTEDO in our North America segment. Revenues were also affected by changes in demand for certain products resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Exchange rate movements during the first quarter of 2021, net of hedging effects, positively impacted our revenues by $74 million and negatively impacted our GAAP and non-GAAP operating income by $14 million and $10 million, respectively.

GAAP gross profit was $1,878 million in the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of 9% compared to the first quarter of 2020. GAAP gross profit margin was 47.2% in the first quarter of 2021, compared to 47.3% in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in gross profit margin was mainly due to lower revenues from our Europe segment, partially offset by higher profitability in North America resulting from the change in mix of products. Non-GAAP gross profit was $2,144 million in the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of 7% compared to the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP gross profit margin was 53.8% in the first quarter of 2021, compared to 53.1% in the first quarter of 2020.

GAAP Research and Development (R&D) expenses in the first quarter of 2021 were $254 million, an increase of 15% compared to the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP R&D expenses were $244 million, or 6.1% of quarterly revenues, in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $221 million, or 5.1%, in the first quarter of 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, our R&D expenses related primarily to specialty product candidates in the respiratory and pain therapeutic areas, with additional activities in selected other areas and generic products including biosimilars. Our higher R&D expenses in the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, were mainly due to an increase in respiratory and biosimilar projects.

GAAP Selling and Marketing (S&M) expenses in the first quarter of 2021 were $585 million, a decrease of 5% compared to the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP S&M expenses were $549 million, or 13.8% of quarterly revenues, in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $570 million, or 13.1%, in the first quarter of 2020.

GAAP General and Administrative (G&A) expenses in the first quarter of 2021 were $290 million, a decrease of 5% compared to the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP G&A expenses were $278 million, or 7.0% of quarterly revenues, in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $290 million, or 6.7%, in the first quarter of 2020.

GAAP operating income in the first quarter of 2021 was $434 million, compared to $191 million in the first quarter of 2020. The increase was mainly due to lower intangible asset impairment charges in the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by lower profit in our Europe segment along with higher legal settlements and loss contingencies.

Non-GAAP operating income in the first quarter of 2021 was $1,077 million, a decrease of 13%, compared to $1,244 million in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease was mainly due to lower profit in our Europe segment.

EBITDA (defined as operating income, excluding depreciation and amortization expenses) was $809 million in the first quarter of 2021, an increase of 37% compared to $590 million in the first quarter of 2020. Adjusted EBITDA (defined as operating income excluding depreciation and amortization expenses and certain other items) was $1,206 million in the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of 12% compared to $1,375 million in the first quarter of 2020.

GAAP financial expenses were $290 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $224 million in the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP financial expenses were $227 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $213 million in the first quarter of 2020. Financial expenses in the first quarter of 2021, were mainly comprise of interest expenses of $239 million and loss on revaluation of marketable securities of $64 million. Financial expense in the first quarter of 2020 were mainly comprised of interest expenses of $241 million.

In the first quarter of 2021, we recognized a GAAP tax expense of $62 million, on pre-tax income of $144 million. In the first quarter of 2020, we recognized a tax benefit of $59 million, on pre-tax loss of $33 million. Our tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was mainly affected by legal settlements, impairments and amortization in jurisdictions in which tax rates are lower than Teva's average tax rate on its ongoing business operations. Non-GAAP income taxes for the first quarter of 2021 were $146 million, or 17%, on pre-tax non-GAAP income of $851 million. Non-GAAP income taxes in the first quarter of 2020 were $175 million, or 17%, on pre-tax non-GAAP income of $1,030 million. Our non-GAAP tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was mainly affected by the mix of products we sold and interest expense disallowance.

We expect our annual non-GAAP tax rate for 2021 to be 17%-18%, unchanged from our outlook provided in February 2021.

GAAP net income attributable to Teva and GAAP EPS were $77 million and $0.07 respectively, in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $69 million and $0.06 in the first quarter of 2020. This increase was mainly due to the increase in operating income, as discussed above. Non-GAAP net income attributable to Teva and non-GAAP diluted EPS in the first quarter of 2021 were $699 million and $0.63, respectively, compared to $835 million and $0.76 in the first quarter of 2020.

The weighted average diluted shares outstanding used for the fully diluted share calculation on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was 1,107 million and 1,096 million shares, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the fully diluted share count for purposes of calculating our market capitalization was approximately 1,130 million and 1,118 million, respectively.

Non-GAAP information: Net non-GAAP adjustments in the first quarter of 2021 were $621 million. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS for the first quarter of 2021 were adjusted to exclude the following items:

  • Amortization of purchased intangible assets of $242 million, of which $215 million is included in cost of sales and the remaining $27 million in S&M expenses;
  • Impairment of long-lived assets of $127 million, comprised mainly of impairment of intangible assets of IPR&D and product rights assets in connection with the Actavis Generics acquisition;
  • Legal settlements and loss contingencies of $104 million, mainly related to a provision for a potential patent setlement;
  • Restructuring expenses of $81 million;
  • Finance expense of $64 million, related to revaluation of marketable securities;
  • Equity compensation expenses of $31 million;
  • Other items of $57 million; and
  • Income tax of $85 million.

Teva believes that excluding such items facilitates investors’ understanding of its business. For further information, see the tables below for a reconciliation of the U.S. GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP figures and the information under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacement for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Cash flow used in operating activities during the first quarter of 2021 was $405 million, compared to $305 million generated in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in the first quarter of 2021 was mainly due to changes in working capital items resulting from a decrease in sales reserves and allowances (SR&A) and an increase in inventory, as well as lower profit in our Europe segment.

Free cash flow (cash flow from operating activities, cash used for capital investments, beneficial interest collected in exchange for securitized accounts receivables and proceeds from divestitures of businesses and other assets) was $59 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $551 million in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in the first quarter of 2021 resulted mainly from lower cash flow from operating activities, partially offset by higher sales of assets.

As of March 31, 2021, our debt was $24,986 million, compared to $25,919 million as of December 31, 2020. This decrease was mainly due to redemption of $491 million of our convertible senior debentures and exchange rate fluctuations. The portion of total debt classified as short-term as of March 31, 2021 was 11%, compared to 12% as of December 31, 2020. Our average debt maturity was approximately 5.6 years as of March 31, 2021, compared to 5.8 years as of December 31, 2020. Our financial leverage was 69% as of March 31, 2021, compared to 70% as of December 31, 2020.

Revenues from our North America segment in the first quarter of 2021 were $1,989 million, a decrease of $94 million, or 5%, compared to the first quarter of 2020, mainly due to a decrease in revenues from Anda, COPAXONE and BENDEKA/TREANDA, partially offset by higher revenues from generic products and AUSTEDO. Our North America segment has experienced some reductions in volume due to less physician and hospital activity during the COVID-19 pandemic, but has also experienced increase in demand for certain products related to the treatment of COVID-19 and its symptoms. In addition, the ability to promote certain specialty products, primarily AJOVY and AUSTEDO, has been impacted by less physician visits by patients and less physician interactions by our sales personnel.

Revenues in the United States, our largest market, were $1,854 million in the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of $87 million, or 4%, compared to the first quarter of 2020.

Generic products revenues in our North America segment (including biosimilars) in the first quarter of 2021 were $1,053 million, an increase of 11% compared to the first quarter of 2020. This increase was mainly due to higher revenues from emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate tablets (the generic equivalent of Truvada®), Truxima (the biosimilar to Rituxan®) and ProAir® authorized generic, partially offset by lower volume and pricing of other generic products.

In January 2021, we launched etonogestrel and ethinyl estradiol vaginal ring, 0.120 mg/0.015 mg per day (the generic equivalent of NuvaRing®) in the U.S., which is an estrogen/progestin combination hormonal contraceptive (CHC) indicated for use by women to prevent pregnancy.

In the first quarter of 2021, our total prescriptions were approximately 322 million (based on trailing twelve months), representing 9.2% of total U.S. generic prescriptions according to IQVIA data.

AJOVY revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2021 were $31 million, an increase of $2 million, or 8% compared to the first quarter of 2020, mainly due to growth in volume. AJOVY is the only anti-CGRP product indicated for quarterly treatment and in January 2021 we launched a new triple pack product offering, providing quarterly dosing.

AUSTEDO revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2021 increased by 20% to $146 million, compared to $122 million in the first quarter of 2020. This increase was mainly due to growth in volume.

BENDEKA and TREANDA combined revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2021 decreased by 14% to $91 million, compared to the first quarter of 2020, mainly due to availability of alternative therapies and continued competition.

COPAXONE revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2021 decreased by 17% to $164 million, compared to the first quarter of 2020, mainly due to generic competition in the United States.

ProAir (HFA and RespiClick) revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2021 decreased by 9% to $54 million, compared to the first quarter of 2020. In January 2019, we launched our own ProAir authorized generic in the United States, following the launch of a generic version of Ventolin® HFA, another albuterol inhaler. Revenues from our ProAir authorized generic are included in “generic products” above.

Anda revenues in our North America segment in the first quarter of 2021 decreased by 32% to $289 million, compared to $426 million in the first quarter of 2020, mainly due to lower demand. In addition, revenues were higher in first quarter of 2020 as a result of significant customer stocking due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Revenues from our Europe segment in the first quarter of 2021 were $1,214 million, a decrease of 13%, or $188 million, compared to the first quarter of 2020. In local currency terms, revenues decreased by 20%, mainly due to higher revenues in first quarter of 2020 as a result of significant customer stocking due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, revenues were impacted by lower demand of generic, OTC and respiratory products resulting from a decline in doctor and hospital visits by patients resulting in fewer prescriptions as well as lower sales of cough and cold products, both due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease in revenues is also attributed to a decline in COPAXONE revenues due to competing glatiramer acetate products and price declines in oncology products as a result of generic competition.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains certain financial information that differs from what is reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures, including, but not limited to, non-GAAP EPS, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP R&D expenses, non-GAAP S&M expenses, non-GAAP G&A expenses, non-GAAP financial expenses, non-GAAP income taxes, non-GAAP income (loss) before income taxes, non-GAAP tax rate, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Teva and non-GAAP diluted EPS are presented in order to facilitates investors' understanding of our business. We utilize certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate performance, in conjunction with other performance metrics. The following are examples of how we utilize the non-GAAP measures: our management and board of directors use the non-GAAP measures to evaluate our operational performance, to compare against work plans and budgets, and ultimately to evaluate the performance of management; our annual budgets are prepared on a non-GAAP basis; and senior management’s annual compensation is derived, in part, using these non-GAAP measures. See the attached tables for a reconciliation of the GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP figures. Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacements for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We are not providing forward looking guidance for GAAP reported financial measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are based on management’s current beliefs and expectations and are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that could cause our future results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from that expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include risks relating to:

  • our ability to successfully compete in the marketplace, including: that we are substantially dependent on our generic products; consolidation of our customer base and commercial alliances among our customers; delays in launches of new generic products; the increase in the number of competitors targeting generic opportunities and seeking U.S. market exclusivity for generic versions of significant products; our ability to develop and commercialize biopharmaceutical products; competition for our specialty products, including AUSTEDO®, AJOVY® and COPAXONE®; our ability to achieve expected results from investments in our product pipeline; our ability to develop and commercialize additional pharmaceutical products; and the effectiveness of our patents and other measures to protect our intellectual property rights;
  • our substantial indebtedness, which may limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, engage in additional transactions or make new investments, may result in a further downgrade of our credit ratings; and our inability to raise debt or borrow funds in amounts or on terms that are favorable to us;
  • our business and operations in general, including: uncertainty regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our business, financial condition, operations, cash flows, and liquidity and on the economy in general; our ability to successfully execute and maintain the activities and efforts related to the measures we have taken or may take in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated costs therewith; effectiveness of our optimization efforts; our ability to attract, hire and retain highly skilled personnel; manufacturing or quality control problems; interruptions in our supply chain; disruptions of information technology systems; breaches of our data security; variations in intellectual property laws; challenges associated with conducting business globally, including political or economic instability, major hostilities or terrorism; costs and delays resulting from the extensive pharmaceutical regulation to which we are subject or delays in governmental processing time due to travel and work restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic;
  • the effects of reforms in healthcare regulation and reductions in pharmaceutical pricing, reimbursement and coverage; significant sales to a limited number of customers; our ability to successfully bid for suitable acquisition targets or licensing opportunities, or to consummate and integrate acquisitions; and our prospects and opportunities for growth if we sell assets;
  • compliance, regulatory and litigation matters, including: failure to comply with complex legal and regulatory environments; increased legal and regulatory action in connection with public concern over the abuse of opioid medications and our ability to reach a final resolution of the remaining opioid-related litigation; scrutiny from competition and pricing authorities around the world, including our ability to successfully defend against the U.S. Department of Justice criminal charges of Sherman Act violations; potential liability for patent infringement; product liability claims; failure to comply with complex Medicare and Medicaid reporting and payment obligations; compliance with anti-corruption sanctions and trade control laws; and environmental risks;
  • other financial and economic risks, including: our exposure to currency fluctuations and restrictions as well as credit risks; potential impairments of our intangible assets; potential significant increases in tax liabilities (including as a result of potential tax reform in the United States); and the effect on our overall effective tax rate of the termination or expiration of governmental programs or tax benefits, or of a change in our business;

and other factors discussed in this press release, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2021 and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, including in the sections captioned "Risk Factors” and “Forward Looking Statements.” Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or other information contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
