The following excerpt is from the company's SEC filing.
Royalties increased by 44% to $104.3 million in the second quarter of 2021,
compared to the same quarter in 2020.
Repurchased GSK’s full 32% equity stake in Innoviva for $392 million
purchase price.
Strategically invested an additional $20 million into Entasis Therapeutics
Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:ETTX), a leader in anti-infectives development.
BURLINGAME, Calif., July 28, 2021
Innoviva, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVA) (“Innoviva” and “the Company”) today reported financial results
for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.
Gross royalty revenues of $104.3 million from Glaxo Group Limited (“GSK”)
for the second quarter of 2021 included royalties of $65.9 million from global net sales of RELVAR

ELLIPTA
, royalties of $12.0 million from global net sales of ANORO
ELLIPTA
and royalties
of $26.4 million from global net sales of TRELEGY
Increase in fair values of strategic equity and long-term investments of
$45.3 million in the second quarter of 2021 was mainly due to higher net valuation, as of June 30, 2021.
Income before income taxes increased by 15% to $136.2 million, compared to
the same quarter in 2020.
Net cash and cash equivalents, excluding $3.2 million cash balance attributable
to a variable interest entity, totaled $40.1 million, and receivables from GSK totaled $104.3 million as of June 30, 2021.
Pavel Raifeld, Chief Executive Officer of Innoviva, Inc., stated:
“Our royalty revenues grew 44% year over year, demonstrating continued strength and resilience in the face of the pandemic.”
“RELVAR
global net sales increased meaningfully compared to the second quarter of 2020. U.S. net sales increased
significantly, driven in part by a favorable adjustment. Non-U.S. sales increased by 13% as the ICS/LABA class growth decline
was more than offset by beneficial adherence trends among existing patients. ANORO
global
net sales increased by 7% in the second quarter of 2021. U.S. net sales decreased by 3% due to negative volume dynamics.
Non-U.S.
ANORO
net
sales increased by 25% as the environment normalized. TRELEGY
global
net sales increased by 69% in the second quarter of 2021, driven by strong volume growth and a favorable adjustment in the U.S. as
well as strong launches in non-U.S. markets.”
Mr. Raifeld concluded, “Over the past quarter, we continued
to execute on our strategy of creating shareholder value through operational excellence and strategic investments, deploying in excess
of $400 million. We are pleased with the superior performance across all key aspects of our business, and we believe GSK equity stake
repurchase to be a strategically and economically attractive transaction that ushered a new chapter in our story and strongly positioned
us for continued success.”
