Ad hoc: MorphoSys AG Reports Preliminary Q3 2023 Monjuvi U.S. Sales and Gross Margin, and Updates Financial Guidance for 2023
MorphoSys AG (FSE: MOR; NASDAQ: MOR) announces today an update of its financial guidance for 2023, after preliminary completion of the latest evaluation of MorphoSys’ third quarter and first nine months of 2023 financial performance. MorphoSys updates its financial guidance based on the preliminary unaudited consolidated results for the first nine months of 2023. Preliminary Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) U.S. Net Product Sales are US$ 23.4 million (€ 21.5 million) for the third quarter of 2023 and US$ 67.8 million (€ 62.6 million) for the first nine months of 2023, a 5% and 6% increase from the same periods in 2022, respectively (US$ 22.2 million in Q3 2022 and US$ 64.1 million in the first nine months of 2022). Preliminary Gross Margin for Monjuvi U.S. Net Product Sales for Q3 2023 is 65%, due to the recognition of one-time write-offs for raw material used in the production of Monjuvi. For the full year of 2023, MorphoSys now expects Monjuvi U.S. Net Product Sales to be US$ 85 to US$ 95 million (previously: US$ 80 to US$ 95 million) and Gross Margin for Monjuvi U.S. Net Product Sales to be approximately 75% (previously: 75% to 80%). All other aspects of the guidance for 2023 remain unchanged. The previous financial guidance for 2023 was provided by MorphoSys on January 5, 2023 and was last reiterated on August 9, 2023 and can be found at www.morphosys.com. Full results will be published on November 15, 2023, followed by a conference call on November 16, 2023.
