Genmab Announces Financial Results for the First Half of 2022
August 10, 2022 Copenhagen, Denmark;
Interim Report for the First Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Highlights
● | Genmab and AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie) announced topline results for epcoritamab from the Phase 1/2 trial in patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) |
● | Genmab announced its intent to submit a biologics license application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) for epcoritamab for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL, in the second half of 2022 |
● | DARZALEX® net sales as reported by Johnson & Johnson increased 37% compared to the first six months of 2021 to USD 3,842 million, resulting in royalty revenue to Genmab of DKK 4,024 million |
● | Genmab announced the resolution of its arbitration with Janssen Biotech, Inc. (Janssen) under its daratumumab license agreement and subsequently commenced a new arbitration under the daratumumab license agreement with Janssen |
● | Genmab improves its 2022 financial guidance |
“Genmab’s innovation was on display during the second quarter of 2022 with data presentations at multiple prestigious conferences and the publication by Genmab, and our partner, AbbVie, of topline results for epcoritamab from the Phase 1/2 trial in patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL. Based on this data, we intend to submit a BLA to the U.S. FDA for epcoritamab in the second half of this year,” said Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Genmab.
Financial Performance First Half of 2022
● | Net sales of DARZALEX by Janssen were USD 3,842 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to USD 2,798 million in the first six months of 2021, an increase of USD 1,044 million, or 37%. |
● | Royalty revenue was DKK 4,727 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 2,595 million in the first six months of 2021, an increase of DKK 2,132 million, or 82%. The increase in royalties was driven by higher net sales of DARZALEX, TEPEZZA® and Kesimpta® and higher average exchange rate between the USD and DKK. |
● | Revenue was DKK 5,281 million for the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 3,553 million for the first six months of 2021. The increase of DKK 1,728 million, or 49%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX, TEPEZZA and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with Janssen, Roche and Novartis Pharma AG (Novartis), respectively, partly offset by milestones achieved under our collaborations with Janssen and AbbVie in the first six months of 2021. |
● | Operating expenses were DKK 3,520 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 2,234 million in the first six months of 2021. The increase of DKK 1,286 million, or 58%, was driven by the continued advancement of epcoritamab and multiple pipeline projects, an increase in new employees to support Tivdak® post launch and expansion of our product pipeline, and the continued development of Genmab’s commercialization and broader organizational capabilities and infrastructure. |
● | Operating profit was DKK 1,761 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 1,319 million in the first six months of 2021. |
Genmab Announces Financial Results for the First Half of 2022

Genmab is raising its 2022 financial guidance published on May 11, 2022, driven primarily by increased royalty revenue due to higher net sales of DARZALEX and the foreign exchange impact of the strong US Dollar.
Revenue
Genmab expects its 2022 revenue to be in the range of DKK 12,000 – 13,000 million, an increase to the previous guidance of DKK 11,000 – 12,000 million, driven primarily by the expected continued strong growth of DARZALEX net sales as well as the positive impact of the strong US Dollar. Genmab’s projected revenue for 2022 primarily consists of DARZALEX royalties of DKK 8,800 – 9,300 million compared to the previous guidance of DKK 8,000 – 8,500 million. Such royalties are based on Genmab’s revised estimate of DARZALEX 2022 net sales of USD 7.8 – 8.2 billion compared to the previous guidance of USD 7.5 – 8.0 billion. DARZALEX royalties are partly offset by Genmab’s share of Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme in connection with subcutaneous (SC) net sales. The remainder of Genmab’s revenue primarily consists of royalties from TEPEZZA, Kesimpta and RYBREVANT®, reimbursement revenue, milestones for epcoritamab, teclistamab and other milestones as well as collaboration revenue with Seagen for Tivdak.
Operating Expenses
Genmab anticipates its 2022 operating expenses to be in the range of DKK 7,600 – 8,200 million, an increase to the previous guidance of DKK 7,200 – 7,800 million, driven by increased investment related to pipeline progression and epcoritamab launch readiness activities as well as the negative impact of the strong US Dollar. Operating expenses continue to be driven by the advancement of Genmab’s clinical programs, continued investment in research and development, as well as building Genmab’s commercial organization and broader organizational infrastructure.
Operating Profit
Genmab now expects its 2022 operating profit to be in the range of DKK 3,800 – 5,400 million, an increase to the previous guidance of DKK 3,200 – 4,800 million, driven primarily by the items described above.
Outlook: Risks and Assumptions
In addition to factors already mentioned, the estimates above are subject to change due to numerous reasons, including but not limited to, the achievement of certain milestones associated with Genmab’s collaboration agreements; the timing and variation of development activities (including activities carried out by Genmab’s collaboration partners) and related income and costs; DARZALEX, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA and RYBREVANT net sales and royalties paid to Genmab; and currency exchange rates (the 2022 guidance assumes a USD / DKK exchange rate of 6.8 compared to 6.4 in the previous guidance). The financial guidance assumes that no significant new agreements are entered into during the remainder of 2022 that could materially affect the results. Refer to the section “Significant Risks and Uncertainties” in this interim report. Additionally, depending on trends related to the coronavirus and future variants, the

Interim Report for the First Half of 2022
COVID-19 pandemic could potentially have a material adverse impact on Genmab’s business and financial performance, including clinical trials, projected regulatory approval timelines, supply chain and revenues, and cause Genmab’s actual results to differ materially from 2022 Guidance and Key 2022 Priorities in this interim report.
Should the global outbreak of COVID-19 persist, it may have long-term impacts on the development, regulatory approval and commercialization of Genmab’s investigational medicines and on net sales of approved medicines created by Genmab and developed and marketed by Genmab or Genmab’s collaboration partners. As the pandemic continues, there may be an impact on Genmab’s business. Genmab has an established COVID-19 response team, led by the CEO, that closely monitors the evolving situation, maintains precautionary measures to help limit the impact of COVID-19 at the workplace and on our communities, and ensures business continuity. The full extent and nature of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures on Genmab’s business and financial performance is uncertain as the situation continues. The factors discussed above, as well as other factors that are currently unforeseeable, may result in further and other unforeseen material adverse impacts on Genmab’s business and financial performance, including on the sales of Tivdak and on net sales of DARZALEX, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA and RYBREVANT by Genmab’s partners and on Genmab’s royalty and milestone revenue therefrom.

Interim Report for the First Half of 2022
Tivdak (tisotumab vedotin-tftv) – First and only U.S. FDA approved antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) for recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer
● | An ADC directed to tissue factor (TF), a protein highly prevalent in solid tumors, including cervical cancer, which is associated with poor prognosis |
● | Accelerated approval granted by the U.S. FDA for Tivdak, the first and only approved ADC for the treatment of adult patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer with disease progression on or after chemotherapy |
● | U.S. FDA approval was based on data from the innovaTV 204 (NCT03438396) Phase 2 single-arm clinical study evaluating tisotumab vedotin as monotherapy in patients with previously treated recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer |
● | In addition to a Phase 3 study in recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer, multiple Phase 2 clinical studies in other solid tumors are ongoing |
● | Co-developed globally and co-promoted in the U.S. in collaboration with Seagen |
Tivdak is an ADC composed of Genmab’s human monoclonal antibody directed to TF and Seagen’s ADC technology that utilizes a protease-cleavable linker that covalently attaches the microtubule-disrupting agent monomethyl auristatin E to the antibody. Genmab used technology licensed from Medarex to generate the TF antibody forming part of Tivdak. Tivdak is the first and only U.S. FDA approved ADC for the treatment of adult patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer with disease progression on or after chemotherapy. Tivdak is being co-developed by Genmab and Seagen. Under a joint commercialization agreement, Genmab is co-promoting Tivdak in the U.S. and will lead commercial operational activities in Japan. Seagen is leading commercial operational activities in the U.S. and will lead commercial operational activities in Europe and China. In these four markets there will be a 50:50 cost and profit split. In any other markets, Seagen will commercialize Tivdak and Genmab will receive royalties based on a percentage of aggregate net sales ranging from the mid-teens to the mid-twenties. The companies have joint decision-making on the worldwide development and commercialization strategy for Tivdak. The companies have a broad clinical development program for Tivdak, including a confirmatory Phase 3 study in recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer.
Please consult the U.S. Prescribing Information for Tivdak for the labeled indication and safety information, including the boxed warning.

Interim Report for the First Half of 2022
Epcoritamab is a proprietary bispecific antibody created using Genmab’s DuoBody technology platform. Epcoritamab targets CD3, which is expressed on T-cells, and CD20, a clinically well-validated target on malignant B-cells. Genmab used technology licensed from Medarex to generate the CD20 antibody forming part of epcoritamab. Epcoritamab is being co-developed by Genmab and AbbVie. The first Phase 3 clinical study (NCT04628494) of epcoritamab in relapsed/refractory DLBCL is ongoing. In addition, Phase 1/2 clinical studies in B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (NCT04623541) and in combination with standard of care therapies for B-NHL (NCT04663347) are ongoing. Also currently recruiting are a Phase 2 study of epcoritamab in combination with anti-neoplastic patients in adults with NHL (NCT05283720), a Phase 1 study of epcoritamab in pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory aggressive mature B-cell neoplasms (NCT05206357) and a Phase 1 study of epcoritamab either as monotherapy or in combination with standard of care therapies in adult patients with B-NHL in China (NCT05201248). The combination of epcoritamab and DuoHexaBody®-CD37 (GEN3009) is also being explored in an arm of a Phase 1/2 clinical study (NCT04358458) of DuoHexaBody-CD37 in hematologic malignancies.
Second Quarter 2022 Updates
● | June: Genmab announced its intent to submit a BLA to the U.S. FDA for SC epcoritamab for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL in the second half of 2022. |
● | June: Genmab and AbbVie presented multiple epcoritamab abstracts at both the ASCO Annual Meeting and the 27th Annual Meeting of the European Hematology Association (EHA). Data from the first cohort of the Phase 1/2 EPCORE NHL-1 (NCT03625037) trial of epcoritamab in relapsed/refractory LBCL was presented as a late-breaking oral presentation during the Presidential Symposium at EHA. |
● | April: Genmab and AbbVie announced topline results from the first cohort of the Phase 1/2 EPCORE NHL-1 trial of epcoritamab in relapsed/refractory LBCL. The study cohort included 157 patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL who received at least two prior lines of systemic therapy, including 38.9% who received prior treatment with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. The topline results from this cohort demonstrated an overall response rate (ORR) of 63.1% as confirmed by an independent review committee (IRC), which exceeded the protocol prespecified threshold for efficacy. The observed median duration of response (DOR) was 12 months. The most common treatment-emergent adverse event was cytokine release syndrome (CRS) with 49.7%, including 2.5% grade 3. Based on the topline results, the companies will engage global regulatory authorities to determine next steps. |

Interim Report for the First Half of 2022
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The interim report is prepared on a consolidated basis for the Genmab group. The financial statements are published in Danish Kroner (DKK).
Revenue
Genmab’s revenue was DKK 5,281 million for the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 3,553 million for the first six months of 2021. The increase of DKK 1,728 million, or 49%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX, TEPEZZA and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with Janssen, Roche and Novartis, respectively, partly offset by milestones achieved under our collaborations with Janssen and AbbVie in the first six months of 2021.

Royalties
Royalty revenue amounted to DKK 4,727 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 2,595 million in the first six months of 2021. The increase of DKK 2,132 million, or 82%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX, TEPEZZA and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our daratumumab collaboration with Janssen, teprotumumab collaboration with Roche and ofatumumab collaboration with Novartis, respectively. The table below summarizes Genmab’s royalty revenue by product.

Net sales of DARZALEX by Janssen were USD 3,842 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to USD 2,798 million in the first six months of 2021. The increase of USD 1,044 million, or 37%, was driven by the continued strong uptake of DARZALEX. Royalty revenue on net sales of DARZALEX was DKK 4,024 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 2,360 million in the first six months of 2021, an increase of DKK 1,664 million. The percentage increase in royalties of 71% is higher than the percentage increase in the underlying net sales primarily due to the higher average exchange rate between the USD and DKK and a higher effective royalty rate for the first six months of 2022, partly offset by the increase in Genmab’s share of Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme in connection with SC net sales.
Net sales of TEPEZZA by Horizon were USD 981 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to USD 455 million in the first six months of 2021. TEPEZZA net sales in the first quarter of 2021 were negatively impacted by the U.S. government-mandated COVID-19 production interruption. Royalty revenue on net

Interim Report for the First Half of 2022
sales of TEPEZZA was DKK 390 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 162 million in the first six months of 2021, an increase of DKK 228 million.
Net sales of Kesimpta by Novartis were USD 434 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to USD 116 million in the first six months of 2021. The increase of USD 318 million was driven by US launch momentum due to strong access and increased demand. Royalty revenue on net sales of Kesimpta was DKK 296 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 72 million in the first six months of 2021, an increase of DKK 224 million.
Janssen was granted U.S. FDA approval for RYBREVANT during the second quarter of 2021, and Genmab subsequently started recognizing royalties on net sales of RYBREVANT. Royalties were not material for the first six months of 2022 or 2021.
Royalty revenue fluctuations from period to period are due primarily to the level of product net sales, foreign currency exchange rates and more specifically to DARZALEX, Genmab’s share of Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme in connection with SC sales.
Reimbursement Revenue
Reimbursement revenue amounted to DKK 287 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 227 million in the first six months of 2021. The increase of DKK 60 million, or 26%, was primarily driven by higher activities under our collaboration agreement with BioNTech for DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB.
Milestone Revenue
Milestone revenue was DKK 176 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 731 million in the first six months of 2021, a decrease of DKK 555 million, or 76%, primarily driven by milestones achieved in the first six months of 2021 under our Janssen and AbbVie collaborations.
Milestone revenue may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to both the timing of achievements and the varying amount of each individual milestone under our license and collaboration agreements.
Collaboration Revenue
In September 2021, Genmab and Seagen announced U.S. FDA accelerated approval for Tivdak in previously treated recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer. Collaboration revenue was DKK 91 million for the first six months of 2022.
Refer to Financial Statement Note 2 in this interim report for further details about revenue.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses amounted to DKK 2,435 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 1,769 million in the first six months of 2021. The increase of DKK 666 million, or 38%, was driven by the continued advancement of epcoritamab under our collaboration with AbbVie, continued advancement of DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB under our collaboration with BioNTech, and the increase in new team members to support the expansion of our product pipeline.
Research and development expenses accounted for 69% of total operating expenses in the first six months of 2022 compared to 79% in the first six months of 2021.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were DKK 1,085 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 465 million in the first six months of 2021. The increase of DKK 620 million, or 133%, was driven by the increase in new team members to support Tivdak post launch, continued expansion of Genmab’s commercialization capabilities in support of future launches, and investment in broader organizational infrastructure, including our technology portfolio.
Selling, general and administrative expenses accounted for 31% of total operating expenses in the first six months of 2022 compared to 21% in the first six months of 2021.
Operating Profit
Operating profit was DKK 1,761 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to DKK 1,319 million in the first six months of 2021.

Net financial items increased by DKK 813 million, which were primarily driven by:
● | Increase in foreign exchange rate gain, net due to the USD strengthening against the DKK which was more favorable to our marketable securities, and cash and cash equivalents in the first six months of 2022, |
● | Loss on marketable securities driven by increases in interest rates in the United States and Europe, and |
● | Loss on other investments due to the decrease in fair value of Genmab’s investments in common shares of CureVac and Bolt. |
Refer to Financial Statement Note 4 in this interim report for further details about the net financial items.
Corporate Tax
Corporate tax expense for the first six months of 2022 was DKK 745 million compared to DKK 444 million for the first six months of 2021. The increase in corporate tax expense is primarily the result of Genmab’s higher net result before tax. The effective tax rate in the first six months of 2022 and 2021 was 24%.

| 171 |
Net cash provided by operating activities is primarily related to our operating profit, changes in operating assets and liabilities, reversal of net financial items, and adjustments related to non-cash transactions. Cash provided by operating activities was in line with the first six months of 2021 primarily driven by an increase in operating profit of DKK 442 million offset by the timing of corporate tax payments of DKK 455 million in Denmark in the first six months of 2022 that were not required in the first six months of 2021.
Net cash (used in) / provided by investing activities primarily reflects differences between the proceeds received from the sale and maturity of our investments and amounts invested, and the cash paid for investments in tangible assets. Purchases of marketable securities exceeded sales and maturities in the first six months of 2022, whereas sales and maturities of marketable securities exceeded purchases in the first six months of 2021. For the first six months of 2021, investing activities also include the proceeds from the sale of CureVac shares of DKK 438 million. There were no sales of other investments in the first six months of 2022.
Net cash (used in) financing activities is primarily related to the purchase of treasury shares, exercise of warrants, lease payments, and payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees on net settled Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The decrease in cash used in financing activities for the periods is primarily driven by cash payments for the purchase of treasury shares of DKK 437 million in the first six months of 2021 which were more significant than the cash payments for the purchase of treasury shares in the first six months of 2022 of DKK 211 million.
Exchange rate adjustments represent foreign currency gains or losses on Genmab’s cash and cash equivalents, primarily driven by our cash and cash equivalents holdings denominated in USD. The increase in exchange rate adjustments results from the USD strengthening against the DKK to a much greater extent in the first six months of 2022 compared to the first six months of 2021.

Interim Report for the First Half of 2022
Genmab’s USD denominated cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities represented 87% of Genmab’s total cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2022 compared to 86% as of December 31, 2021.
Cash and cash equivalents included short-term marketable securities of DKK 1,006 million as of June 30, 2022 compared to DKK 296 million as of December 31, 2021. In accordance with our accounting policy, securities purchased with a maturity of less than ninety days at the date of acquisition are classified as cash and cash equivalents. Refer to Financial Statement Note 3 in this interim report for further details about our marketable securities.
Balance Sheet
As of June 30, 2022, total assets were DKK 27,476 million compared to DKK 24,627 million on December 31, 2021. As of June 30, 2022, assets were mainly comprised of marketable securities of DKK 11,799 million, cash and cash equivalents of DKK 9,816 million and current receivables of DKK 3,876 million. The current receivables consist primarily of amounts related to royalties from our collaboration agreements.
As of June 30, 2022, total liabilities were DKK 2,994 million compared to DKK 2,431 million on December 31, 2021. The increase in total liabilities of DKK 563 million, or 23%, was primarily driven by the increase in corporate tax payable due to Genmab’s net result before tax and timing of estimated tax payments, and lease liabilities related to the commencement of leases in the Netherlands with respect to office and laboratory space.
Shareholders’ equity as of June 30, 2022 was DKK 24,482 million compared to DKK 22,196 million on December 31, 2021. The increase of DKK 2,286 million, or 10%, was driven primarily by Genmab’s net profit and share-based compensation expense related to the issuance of shares under Genmab’s warrant and RSU programs, partly offset by the purchase of treasury shares during the period. Genmab’s equity ratio was 89% as of June 30, 2022 compared to 90% as of December 31, 2021.

Legal Matters – Janssen Binding Arbitrations
In September 2020, Genmab commenced binding arbitration of two matters arising under its license agreement with Janssen relating to daratumumab. Under the license agreement, Genmab is, among other things, entitled to royalties from Janssen on net sales of daratumumab (marketed as DARZALEX for IV administration and as DARZALEX FASPRO in the United States and as DARZALEX SC in Europe for SC administration). In April 2022, the arbitral tribunal issued an award in the binding arbitration of the two matters. Genmab did not seek a review of the award, and the award is now final.

Interim Report for the First Half of 2022
The first matter concerned the question as to whether Janssen’s obligation to pay royalties on net sales of licensed product extends, in each applicable country, until the expiration or invalidation of the last-to-expire relevant Genmab-owned patent or the last-to-expire relevant Janssen-owned patent covering the product, as further defined and described in the license agreement. As to that matter, the tribunal determined by majority opinion that Janssen’s obligation to pay royalties to Genmab on net sales of licensed product, in each applicable country, extends through the expiration or invalidation of the last-to-expire relevant Genmab-owned patent covering the product or use thereof, but not the relevant Janssen-owned patent. The relevant Genmab-owned issued U.S., European and Japanese patents will expire in the late 2020s and early 2030s.
The second matter concerned the question as to whether Genmab is required to share in Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme for the Halozyme enzyme technology used in the SC formulation of daratumumab (marketed as DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S.). The royalties Janssen pays to Halozyme represent a mid-single digit percentage rate of SC daratumumab net sales. As to that matter, the tribunal ruled by majority opinion that Janssen is permitted to continue reducing its royalty payments to Genmab as an offset against a share of Janssen’s royalty payments made to Halozyme.
On June 9, 2022, Genmab announced the commencement of a new arbitration under the daratumumab license agreement with Janssen. This new arbitration follows from the award in the prior arbitration, where the tribunal ruled in favor of Janssen on the question as to whether Genmab is required to share in Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme for its technology used in the SC formulation of daratumumab. The tribunal based its ruling on the finding that DARZALEX FASPRO constitutes a new licensed product under the license agreement.
In this new arbitration, Genmab is consequently seeking an award of USD 405 million plus interest in accrued milestone payments for DARZALEX FASPRO and a declaration that it is entitled to a new 13-year royalty term from the date of DARZALEX FASPRO’s first commercial sale.
