PDL BioPharma Reports 2020 Second Quarter Financial Results

Accomplished Important Asset Monetization Milestones with the Distribution of Evofem Biosciences Shares to PDL Stockholders and the Anticipated Sale of Noden to Stanley Capital
Announced the Filing of a Form 10 with SEC for Potential Spin-off of LENSAR
Continues to Seek Potential Strategic Transactions for Royalty Portfolio and LENSAR

- Conference Call with Slides Begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time Today -

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. (August 6, 2020) - PDL BioPharma, Inc. (“PDL” or “the Company”) (Nasdaq: PDLI) reports financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and provides an update on important milestones achieved in the execution of its monetization plan:

“I am pleased with the significant progress we have made over the past couple of months in the execution of our monetization strategy,” commented PDL’s President and CEO Dominique Monnet. “We continue to focus on maximizing the net proceeds from the monetization of our assets for our stockholders, and I believe the actions we have taken so far have served them well. I would like to thank the PDL Board and team, our advisors and our LENSAR and Noden colleagues for their continued engagement, dedication and support.”

On May 21, 2020, the Company distributed 100% of its shares of Evofem Biosciences, Inc. (“Evofem”) common stock to the PDL stockholders.
On July 17, 2020, the Company announced that its majority owned subsidiary, LENSAR, Inc. (“LENSAR”), confidentially submitted a registration statement on Form 10 to the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to a potential spin-off of LENSAR as a stand-alone publicly traded company. The Company continues to pursue various strategic alternatives for LENSAR in addition to a spin-off.
On July 30, 2020, the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement for the sale of 100% of the outstanding stock in its wholly owned subsidiaries Noden Pharma DAC and Noden Pharma USA (collectively “Noden”). The total value of the transaction will result in payments to PDL of up to $48.25 million in cash. Upon closing, which we expect to occur by mid-August, PDL will be released of its guarantee to Novartis under Noden’s supply agreement.

In February 2020, the Board of Directors of PDL BioPharma (the “Board”) approved a Plan of Complete Liquidation (“Plan of Liquidation”). The Company is seeking stockholder approval at its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on August 19, 2020 to dissolve the Company under Delaware state law. If stockholders approve the dissolution proposal, the Board would have the authority to cause the Company to file a Certificate of Dissolution to begin the process of winding down and dissolving the Company if and when the Board decides that it would serve best the interest of PDL stockholders.




As announced previously, the Company has engaged financial advisors and initiated processes either to sell its remaining assets separately or to sell the Company as a whole. The Company intends to pursue its monetization strategy in a disciplined and cost-effective manner seeking to maximize net proceeds to stockholders. While the Company cannot provide a definitive timeline for the liquidation process, it is targeting to complete the monetization or distribution of its key assets over the next 12 months.

Discontinued Operations Classified as Assets Held for Sale

As a result of the Company's plans to monetize its assets and the actions put in place in the first quarter of 2020, as of March 31, 2020 the assets held for sale and discontinued operations criteria were met for the Company’s royalty assets and for its Pharmaceutical segment, which consisted of Noden. The royalty assets are a component of the Income Generating Assets segment. In the second quarter of 2020, upon the distribution of the Evofem common stock to the Company's stockholders, the discontinued operations criteria were met for the Strategic Positions segment. The Strategic Positions segment was comprised solely of the Company's investment in Evofem.

During the period in which a component meets the assets held for sale and discontinued operations criteria, an entity must present the assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation separately in the asset and liability sections of the balance sheet for the current and comparative reporting periods. The prior period balance sheet is reclassified for the held for sale items. For statements of operations, the current and prior periods report the results of operations of the component in discontinued operations.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights

Total revenues were $5.2 million, consisting primarily of LENSAR product, lease and service revenues.
LENSAR revenues were $5.1 million, a decrease of 31% over the prior-year period, with procedure volume also declining 31%.
Net cash from all royalty rights was $11.5 million, down 43% from $20.1 million for the prior-year period.
Revenue from our Pharmaceutical segment was $8.2 million, compared with $10.4 million for the prior-year period.
GAAP net loss was $50.0 million. Non-GAAP net loss was $23.0 million. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial results can be found in Table 4 at the end of this news release.

Revenue Highlights

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2020 were $5.2 million and consisted primarily of LENSAR product, lease and service revenues.
Product revenue from LENSAR was $5.1 million, a 31% decrease from the second quarter of 2019. LENSAR procedure volume for the second quarter of 2020 also declined 31% from the prior-year period, primarily due to lower system sales and procedures driven by the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated decline in elective surgical procedures. LENSAR operating results are expected to improve as elective surgical procedures progressively ramp to pre-COVID-19 levels as the pandemic subsides.
Total revenues for the first half of 2020 were $11.2 million, compared with $14.2 million for the first half of 2019.
Revenues from LENSAR for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $3.0 million, or 21%, to $11.1 million from $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. LENSAR procedure volume for the six months ended June 30, 2020 declined by 18% from the prior-year period.

Operating Expense Highlights

Operating expenses from continuing operations of the Company include general and administrative expenses for corporate overhead. A significant amount of these costs had historically not been allocated to individual segments.
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $19.0 million, a $2.3 million increase from $16.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily a result of:
higher general and administrative expenses, primarily due to increased professional fees associated with the ongoing monetization efforts,
higher research & development expenses in our Medical Devices segment as LENSAR pursues its next-generation workstation, ALLY, which integrates an enhanced femtosecond laser with a phacoemulsification system in a compact, mobile workstation, partially offset by



lower cost of product revenue, due to decreased sales in our Medical Devices segment, and
lower sales and marketing expenses in our Medical Devices segment.
Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $56.7 million, a $25.1 million increase from $31.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily a result of:
provisions under our Wind-Down Retention Plan, which, as a result of the adoption of the Plan of Liquidation, accelerated the vesting of outstanding stock awards for employees in the first quarter of 2020,
higher general and administrative expenses of $5.5 million, or 32% from the prior period, primarily due to increased professional fees, and
higher research & development expenses in our Medical Devices segment, partially offset by
lower cost of product revenue, due to decreased sales in our Medical Devices segment.

Discontinued Operations Highlights

Loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $37.4 million, a $40.9 million decrease from the $3.5 million of income recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The change was primarily a result of:
A $58.4 million change in the fair value of our equity affiliate from an unrecognized gain of $45.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared with a $12.9 million loss in the three months ended June 30, 2020.
A $16.8 million loss recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2020 associated with reducing the estimated fair value of Noden as informed by negotiations and terms for the disposition of the entity.
A $2.2 million, or 22%, decline in revenue from our Pharmaceutical segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease in revenue from our Pharmaceutical segment is primarily due to lower net revenues in the United States.
The decrease in revenue from our Pharmaceutical segment in the U.S. for the three months ended June 30, 2020 is due to the increased sales of our authorized generic and lower sales of our branded Tekturna®, compared with the second quarter of 2019.
U.S. market share for branded Tekturna® and the authorized generic of Tekturna of approximately 65% at June 30, 2020 declined from 68% as of March 31, 2020.

These amounts were partially offset by:
Revenue from our royalty right assets of negative $16.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with a negative $40.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The difference was primarily due to a larger decrease in fair value in the second quarter of 2019 primarily resulting from the $60.0 million AcelRx write-down, compared with a $22.9 million write down in the three months ended June 30, 2020 for certain royalty assets, as informed by bids received during our monetization process.
The royalty right assets in our Income Generating Assets segment generated cash flows of $11.5 million and a loss from the net change in fair value of $27.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with cash flows of $20.1 million and a loss in the net change in fair value of $60.5 million in the three month period ended June 30, 2019.
See Table 3 for a rollforward of royalty assets for the second quarter of 2020, compared with the comparable period in 2019.

Loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $50.2 million, a $68.7 million decrease from the $18.6 million of income recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The unfavorable change was primarily a result of:
A $72.2 million change in the fair value of our equity affiliate from an unrecognized gain of $45.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared with a $26.7 million loss in the six months ended June 30, 2020.
A $23.5 million write down of our Pharmaceutical segment in the current year due to a decrease in the estimated fair value of the entity.
A $7.2 million, or 24%, decline in revenue from our Pharmaceutical segment for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared with the same period in the prior year.




These amounts were partially offset by:
Revenue from our royalty right assets in our Income Generating Assets segment of negative $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared with negative $28.1 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. The difference was primarily due to a larger decrease in fair value in the second quarter of 2019 resulting from the $60 million AcelRx write-down, compared with the six months ended June 30, 2020, which includes the fair value adjustments for certain royalty assets as informed by the bids received during our monetization process.
The royalty right assets generated cash flows of $25.0 million in the current period, compared with $32.7 million in the prior-year period.

Other Financial Highlights

On a GAAP basis, the net loss attributable to PDL’s shareholders for the second quarter of 2020 was $50.0 million, or $0.43 per share, compared with a GAAP net loss attributable to PDL’s shareholders of $4.4 million, or $0.04 per share, for the prior-year period. Non-GAAP net loss attributable to PDL’s shareholders was $23.0 million for the second quarter of 2020, compared with non-GAAP net income for PDL's shareholders of $12.7 million for the second quarter of 2019.
On a GAAP basis, the net loss attributable to PDL’s shareholders for the first half of 2020 was $81.7 million, or $0.68 per share, compared with GAAP net income attributable to PDL’s shareholders of $2.3 million, or $0.02 per share, for the prior-year period. Non-GAAP net loss attributable to PDL’s shareholders was $29.7 million for the first half of 2020, compared with non-GAAP net income for PDL's shareholders of $24.5 million for the first half of 2019.
PDL had cash and cash equivalents from continuing operations of $105.4 million as of June 30, 2020, compared with $169.0 million as of December 31, 2019.
The $63.6 million reduction was primarily the result of common stock repurchases of $39.4 million, the net cash used for the repurchase of convertible debt of $18.0 million and net cash used in operations of $33.8 million. This reduction was partially offset by the proceeds from royalty rights of $25.0 million.

Stock and Convertible Note Repurchase Program

In January 2020, PDL began repurchasing shares of its common stock in the open market pursuant to the 10b5-1 program entered into in December 2019 following a $275 million repurchase plan approved by the Board. In the first half of 2020, the Company acquired 12.3 million shares of its common stock for $39.4 million, at an average cost of $3.20 per share, including commissions.
Under this same program, in the first half of 2020, the Company also repurchased $15.9 million par value of convertible notes.
In consideration of the impact and uncertainty introduced by the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's monetization process, the Company discontinued its 10b5-1 program on May 31, 2020.
Through June 30, 2020, the total amount spent of the $275 million Board authorized repurchase program, including the value of the Company’s stock issued in connection with the December 2019 convertible debt exchange, was $213.0 million.
As of July 31, 2020, the Company had approximately 114.0 million shares of common stock outstanding.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis by providing an additional measure which may be considered a “non-GAAP” financial measure under applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We believe that the disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure provides our investors with additional information that reflects the amounts and financial basis upon which our management assesses and operates our business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for reported, or GAAP, net income, and is not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance performed in conformity with GAAP.

“Non-GAAP net income” is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and represents GAAP net income adjusted to exclude (1) mark-to-market adjustments related to the fair value election for our investments in royalty rights presented in our earnings, which include the fair value remeasurement of future discounted cash flows for each of the royalty rights assets we have acquired, (2) market-to-mark adjustment to our equity affiliate, (3) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, (4) non-cash interest expense related to PDL debt offering costs, (5) mark-to-market adjustments related to warrants held, (6) non-cash amortization of intangible assets, (7) non-cash depreciation and amortization expense and (8) the related tax effect of all reconciling items within our reconciliation. Non-GAAP financial measures used by PDL may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
