Conference Call Today at 8:00 AM US Eastern

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) 596/2014 (AS IT FORMS PART OF DOMESTIC LAW IN THE UK BY VIRTUE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018).

RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Indivior PLC (Nasdaq/LSE: INDV) today announced preliminary Q3 2024 financial results and provided updated FY 2024 guidance.

  • Group now sees lower than expected Q3 2024 and FY 2024 SUBLOCADE net revenue (NR) from a combination of faster initial adoption among treatment providers of the competing long-acting injectable (LAI), variability in the timing of funding among certain Criminal Justice System (CJS) accounts and incremental lower trade stocking.
    • Preliminary Q3 2024 SUBLOCADE NR: $187m to $192m
    • Revised FY 2024 SUBLOCADE NR: $725m to $745m (+17% at the midpoint vs. FY 2023)
  • Expected peak SUBLOCADE NR of >$1.5 billion is unchanged, however the Group no longer expects a SUBLOCADE NR run rate of $1 billion exiting 2025.
  • The Group is actively seeking efficiencies to fuel SUBLOCADE growth and support margins.

Comment by Mark Crossley, CEO of Indivior PLC

"We are seeing faster than expected initial adoption of the competitive product to SUBLOCADE. This dynamic, together with greater variability in the timing of funding among Criminal Justice System customers, as well as incremental trade stocking pressure, has resulted in net revenue below our expectations set out in July. We are reducing our FY 2024 guidance to reflect these impacts. In addition, looking to the year ahead, as the US market adjusts to two LAI products, pressure on SUBLOCADE volume growth is expected from continued initial competitor adoption. Therefore, we no longer expect that SUBLOCADE will exit 2025 at a $1 billion net revenue run rate.

We remain firm in our conviction that SUBLOCADE has a differentiated and optimal profile for opioid use disorder (OUD) patients, including our belief that it will best meet the increasing challenges that synthetic opioids are presenting to OUD patients and treatment providers. Additionally, we expect SUBLOCADE's profile to be further enhanced with important label updates in February 2025 that, if approved by the FDA, are expected to improve both the patient and healthcare provider experience. We also are actively evaluating actions to fuel SUBLOCADE's growth and to support margins.

Further, we have been tracking multiple market cohorts since the competitor's launch a year ago and, while we have seen faster than expected initial adoption, recent market data is consistently showing that SUBLOCADE's share is stabilizing at levels demonstrating its leading position in the clinic. Coupled with the continued expected growth of the wider LAI market, we believe this evidence validates the significant market opportunity we see for SUBLOCADE and we believe it confirms our unchanged peak annual SUBLOCADE NR expectation of greater than $1.5 billion."

Preliminary Q3 Net Revenue Expectations:

The Group is providing the below preliminary expectations for key NR drivers for Q3 2024.


October 10, 2024

Net Revenue (NR)

$302m to $309m
 (+13% vs. Q3 2023 at the mid-point)

SUBLOCADE NR

$187m to $192m
 (+14% vs. Q3 2023 at the mid-point)

OPVEE

~$15m

  • Competition: Initial adoption among treatment providers for the competing LAI has been faster than expected. In particular, the Group has seen accelerated trial among Criminal Justice System (CJS) accounts. While this dynamic is adversely impacting SUBLOCADE NR in the near-term, the Group is seeing SUBLOCADE's market share stabilizing in multiple early competitive cohorts at levels in line with the Group's expectations of maintaining its leading position in the clinic.

  • CJS: New CJS activations continued to grow in the third quarter. However, CJS NR is expected to decline versus the previous quarter due to greater variability in funding timing across certain CJS accounts in the near-term as well as from continued competitive pressure. The Group continues to see significant growth in interest and intention to treat with SUBLOCADE among its CJS accounts and therefore expects strong contribution to SUBLOCADE growth from this channel.

  • Stocking: Stocking levels were lower than expected in the third quarter, as days of SUBLOCADE inventory on-hand were further reduced from the historically low levels seen in the first half of 2024. The Group believes its specialty pharmacy and specialty distributors have made permanent inventory adjustments to take advantage of shortened lead times associated with supply chain efficiencies to organized health system and CJS customers and have adjusted accordingly.

  • OPVEE: OPVEE NR in the third quarter is estimated to be approximately $15 million driven by an additional product order from Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) for approximately $8 million in late September.
