Conference Call and Webcast Scheduled Today at 8:00 a.m. ET
WILMINGTON, Del. – July 30, 2024 – Incyte (Nasdaq:INCY) today reports 2024 second quarter financial results, and provides a status update on the Company’s clinical development portfolio.
"In the second quarter of 2024, total revenues grew 9% year-over-year, surpassing $1.0 billion for the quarter. The commercial performance during this period was driven by strong patient demand for Opzelura® (ruxolitinib) and growth across all indications for Jakafi® (ruxolitinib)," said Hervé Hoppenot, Chief Executive Officer, Incyte. "In R&D, we completed a strategic review of our pipeline and have further intensified our focus on clinical programs that we believe can be transformational for patients. The $2.0 billion share repurchase completed during the second quarter, underscores our confidence in our commercial portfolio, clinical pipeline and Incyte's long-term value."
Transformation of Pipeline
•Incyte announces a strategic review of its pipeline with an increased focus on high potential impact programs including, but not limited to:
◦IAI/Dermatology: povorcitinib and MRGPRX2 and MRGPRX4, which were recently acquired from Escient Pharmaceuticals
◦MPNs/GVHD: mCALR, JAK2V617Fi, BETi, and ALK2i
◦Oncology: CDK2i, KRASG12Di and TGFßR2×PD-1
•The Company will discontinue further development of both oral, small molecule PD-L1 inhibitors, as well as LAG-3 monoclonal antibody, TIM-3 monoclonal antibody and LAG-3xPD-1 bispecific.

Recent Company Updates
•Incyte announces positive topline results from two Phase 3 clinical studies evaluating retifanlimab (Zynyz®), a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1), in squamous cell anal carcinoma (SCAC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The Phase 3 PODIUM-303 study in SCAC met its primary endpoint of progression free survival and the Phase 3 PODIUM-304 study in NSCLC met its primary endpoint of overall survival. The safety analysis from both studies demonstrated that retifanlimab was generally well-tolerated with no new safety signals observed. Incyte plans to share the Phase 3 data from both studies in the second half of 2024. POD1UM-303 is a Phase 3, global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind study evaluating carboplatin-paclitaxel with retifanlimab or placebo in patients with inoperable locally recurrent or metastatic SCAC who have not previously been treated with chemotherapy. POD1UM-304 is a Phase 3, global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind study evaluating platinum-based chemotherapy with retifanlimab or placebo in patients with first-line, metastatic squamous or nonsquamous NSCLC.
•In June 2024, Incyte repurchased a total of 33,325,849 shares of its common stock at a price of $60.00 per share, for a total cost of approximately $2.0 billion, excluding fees and expenses. These shares represented approximately 14.8 percent of the Company’s total outstanding shares of common stock as of June 7, 2024.
•In May 2024, Incyte announced it completed the acquisition of Escient Pharmaceuticals, a clinical-stage drug discovery and development company advancing novel small molecule therapeutics for systemic immune and neuro-immune disorders. Under the terms of the agreement, Incyte acquired Escient and its clinical development portfolio, including EP262, a first-in-class, potent, highly selective, once-daily small molecule antagonist of Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor (MRGPRX2) and EP547, a first-in-class oral MRGPRX4 antagonist.
•In April 2024, Incyte and China Medical System Holdings Limited announced the Companies entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement, through a wholly-owned dermatology medical aesthetic subsidiary CMS Skinhealth, for the development and commercialization of povorcitinib, a selective oral JAK1 inhibitor, in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan Region and eleven Southeast Asian countries.
Jakafi:
Net product revenues for the second quarter 2024 of $706 million (+3% Y/Y):
▪Paid demand increased 9% in the second quarter of 2024 versus the same quarter in the prior year, with growth across all indications.
▪Year over year net product revenue growth was lower than paid demand growth due to higher channel inventory levels at the end of the second quarter of 2023 versus the same period of 2024. Channel inventory at the end of the second quarter of 2024 was within the normal range.
Opzelura:
Net product revenues for the second quarter 2024 of $122 million (+52% Y/Y):
▪Net product revenues growth in the second quarter of 2024 were driven by patient demand, refills and expansion in payer coverage in both atopic dermatitis (AD) and vitiligo.
▪Net product revenues of $11 million in the second quarter of 2024 in Europe. Incyte achieved full reimbursement in Spain and Italy at the end of the second quarter 2024 and in France in July 2024.
Additional Pipeline Updates
Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPNs) and Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD) – key highlights
▪Combination trials of ruxolitinib twice daily (BID) with zilurgisertib and BETi are ongoing and continue to enroll. A Phase 3 study for BETi is expected to advance into Phase 3 with an expected update later this year. Clinical proof-of-concept for zilurgisertib is anticipated in the second half of 2024.
▪The Phase 1 studies evaluating mCALR and JAK2V617Fi are ongoing and enrolling patients. Initial data for both studies is anticipated in 2025.

2024 Second Quarter Financial Results
The financial measures presented in this press release for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), unless otherwise identified as a Non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that Non-GAAP information is useful for investors, when considered in conjunction with Incyte’s GAAP disclosures. Management uses such information internally and externally for establishing budgets, operating goals and financial planning purposes. These metrics are also used to manage the Company’s business and monitor performance. The Company adjusts, where appropriate, for expenses in order to reflect the Company’s core operations. The Company believes these adjustments are useful to investors by providing an enhanced understanding of the financial performance of the Company’s core operations. The metrics have been adopted to align the Company with disclosures provided by industry peers.
Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used in conjunction with and to supplement Incyte’s operating results as reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP measures may be defined and calculated differently by other companies in our industry.
As changes in exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, Management believes the presentation of certain revenue results on a constant currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand its operating results and evaluate its performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period over period. The Company calculates constant currency by calculating current year results using prior year foreign currency exchange rates and generally refers to such amounts calculated on a constant currency basis as excluding the impact of foreign exchange or being on a constant currency basis. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on a constant currency basis, as the Company presents them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

Product and Royalty Revenues Product revenues and product and royalty revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 increased 10% and 9%, respectively, over the prior year comparative period, primarily driven by the following;
•Jakafi net product revenue increased 3% driven by a 9% increase in paid demand. Year over year net product revenue growth was lower than paid demand growth due to higher channel inventory levels at the end of the second quarter of 2023 versus the same period of 2024. Channel inventory at the end of the second quarter of 2024 was within the normal range.
•Opzelura net product revenue increased 52% due to continued growth in new patient starts and refills.
•Minjuvi/Monjuvi net product revenue increased 136% following the acquisition of the exclusive global rights to tafasitamab in February 2024.
•Jakavi royalty revenues increased 10%.

Cost of product revenues GAAP and Non-GAAP cost of product revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 increased 12% and 14%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to growth in net product revenues.
Research and development expenses GAAP and Non-GAAP research and development expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 increased 184% and 196%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to $679.4 million of expense relating to the IPR&D assets acquired in the Escient acquisition, $12.5 million of Escient acquisition related compensation expense related to cash settled unvested Escient equity awards and severance payments, as well as continued investment in our late stage development assets. Excluding the upfront consideration paid related to the Escient transaction and other upfront and milestone payments, research and development expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 increased 13% compared to the same period in 2023 due to continued investment in our late stage development assets and timing of certain expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 increased 8% compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to $21.5 million of Escient acquisition related compensation expense related to cash settled unvested Escient equity awards and severance payments and timing of consumer marketing activities and of certain other expenses. Excluding the upfront consideration paid related to the Escient transaction, selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 were flat compared to the same period in 2023.

Other Financial Information
Change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration The change in fair value of contingent consideration during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, was due primarily to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates impacting future revenue projections of Iclusig.
Operating income GAAP and Non-GAAP operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 347% and 245%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2023, driven primarily by the aforementioned costs relating to the Escient acquisition.
Provision for income taxes The income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $54.8 million on a pre-tax loss of $389.8 million primarily due to the impact of non-tax deductible charges of $710.9 million associated with the acquisition of Escient.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities position As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $1.4 billion and $3.7 billion, respectively. The decrease in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities during 2024 was driven primarily by the $2.0 billion share repurchase completed during June 2024, and the total cash consideration paid to Escient shareholders of $783 million.
Share Repurchase In June 2024, Incyte completed a $2.0 billion share repurchase reflecting our confidence in the future outlook of our business, the strength of our commercial portfolio and the clinical development pipeline. In total, approximately 33.3 million shares of common stock were repurchased at $60.00 per share and represented approximately 14.8% of our common shares outstanding at the time of the repurchase. As of June 30, 2024, there were 191.6 million common shares outstanding.
2024 Financial Guidance
Incyte is raising the low end of its full year 2024 Jakafi revenue guidance as well as updating its full year 2024 research and development guidance to reflect the ongoing impact of the acquisition of Escient Pharmaceuticals. The research and development guidance excludes $691 million of upfront consideration recorded relating to the acquisition of Escient Pharmaceuticals. Incyte is maintaining its full year 2024 other hematology/oncology revenue guidance, as well as its cost of product revenue and selling, general and administrative guidance. Incyte’s guidance is summarized below. Guidance does not include revenue from any potential new product launches or the impact of any potential future strategic transactions.

9 Income tax effects of Non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments are calculated using an estimated annual effective tax rate, taking into consideration any permanent items and valuation allowances against related deferred tax assets. The Non-GAAP net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 should have been $132,719 compared to the $145,269 previously disclosed to correct a transposition error in the tax effect of Non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the tax effect of Non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments should have been ($6,275) instead of $6,275.
10.All stock options and stock awards were excluded from the diluted share calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive, as we were in a net loss position.
