Mechelen, Belgium; August 1, 2024, 22:01
CET; regulated information – Galapagos NV (Euronext & NASDAQ:
GLPG) today announced its half-year 2024 financial
results and provided a second quarter and post-period update and
the outlook for the remainder of 2024. The results are further
detailed in the H1 2024 financial report available on the financial
reports section of the corporate
website.
“We are very pleased with the progress we have
made in delivering on our Forward, Faster strategy,” said
Dr. Paul Stoffels1, Galapagos’ CEO and Chairman of the
Board of Directors. “We are on track with key regulatory
milestones, having submitted the IND for our Phase 1/2 study of
GLPG5101 in the U.S., and the CTA for the Phase 2 study of GLPG5201
in Europe, with plans for an upcoming IND filing in the U.S. for
GLPG5201. With these submissions, Galapagos is pioneering
innovative approaches in cell therapy with the potential to
administer fresh, fit CAR-T cells within a vein-to-vein time of
just seven days - critical for patients with rapidly advancing
cancers. Our innovation strategy, powered by our unique technology
platforms and value-enriching collaborations has significantly
expanded our pipeline. With over 15 ongoing preclinical programs in
oncology and immunology, our ambition to initiate at least one
first-in-human study in 2025 and introduce at least two new
clinical candidates annually starting in 2026, positions us
strongly for sustained value creation.”
Thad Huston, Galapagos’ CFO and COO, added:
“Strengthened by our newest collaboration with Blood Centers of
America to expand our cell therapy manufacturing network across the
U.S, we are gearing up for our pivotal CAR-T studies and commercial
readiness. We continue to evaluate business development
opportunities and were happy to announce a clinical collaboration
with an option to exclusively license Adaptimmune’s next-generation
TCR T-cell therapy, uza-cel. This aligns well with our strategy to
advance novel cell therapies and enables us to expand our portfolio
to include treatments for solid tumors. We reaffirm our 2024
outlook, with key pipeline catalysts on track and cash burn
guidance, excluding business development, in the range of €280-320
million.”

DETAILS OF THE FINANCIAL RESULTS OF THE
FIRST HALF YEAR OF 2024
As a consequence of the transfer of our Jyseleca® business to
Alfasigma, the results related to Jyseleca® for the first half-year
of 2024 are presented separately from the results of our continuing
operations in the line ‘Net profit from discontinued operations,
net of tax’ in our consolidated income statement. The comparative
first half-year of 2023 has been restated accordingly for the
presentation of the results related to the Jyseleca®
business.
Results from our continuing
operations
Total operating loss from continuing operations
for the six months ended 30 June 2024 was €71.3 million, compared
to an operating loss of €27.7 million for the six months ended 30
June 2023.
- Total net revenues
for the six months ended 30 June 2024 amounted to €140.3 million,
compared to €118.6 million for the six months ended 30 June 2023.
The revenue recognition related to the exclusive access rights
granted to Gilead for our drug discovery platform amounted to
€115.1 million for the first six months of both 2024 and 2023. Our
deferred income balance at 30 June 2024 includes €1.2 billion
allocated to our drug discovery platform that is recognized
linearly over the remaining period of our 10-year
collaboration.
- Cost of sales for
the six months ended 30 June 2024 amounted to €19.1 million and
related to the supply of Jyseleca® to Alfasigma under the
transition agreement. The related revenues are reported in total
net revenues.
- R&D expenses
in the first six months of 2024 amounted to €145.2 million,
compared to €108.7 million for the first six months of 2023. This
increase was primarily explained by higher costs for cell therapy
and small molecule programs in oncology.
- G&A and
S&M expenses amounted to €63.9 million in
the first six months of 2024, compared
to €57.9 million in the first six months of
2023. This was predominantly due to an increase in S&M
expenses due to investments in strategic marketing for
oncology.
- Other operating
income amounted to €16.6 million in the first six months
of 2024, compared to €20.3 million for the same period last
year. This decrease is mainly driven by lower grants and R&D
incentives.
Net financial income in the
first six months of 2024 amounted to €98.4 million, compared
to net financial income of €33.1 million for the first six
months of 2023.
- Fair value adjustments and
net currency exchange gains in the first six months of
2024 amounted to €49.5 million, compared to fair value
adjustments and net currency exchange differences of
€0.2 million for the first six months of 2023, and were
primarily attributable to €18.2 million of unrealized currency
exchange gains on our cash and cash equivalents and current
financial investments at amortized cost in U.S. dollars, and to
€31.2 million of positive changes in fair value of current
financial investments.
- Net other financial
income in the first six months of 2024 amounted to
€48.9 million, compared to net other financial income of
€32.9 million for the first six months of 2023, and was
primarily attributable to €49.4 million of interest income, which
increased significantly due to the increase in interest rates.
Net profit from
continuing operations for the first six months of 2024 was
€28.2 million, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of
€7.3 million for the first six months of 2023.

equal to the increase or decrease in our cash and cash equivalents
(excluding the effect of exchange rate differences on cash and cash
equivalents), minus:
• the net proceeds, if any, from share capital and share premium
increases included in the net cash flows generated from/used in (-)
financing activities
• the net proceeds or cash used, if any, related to the
acquisitions or disposals of businesses; the acquisition of
financial assets held at fair value through other comprehensive
income; the movement in restricted cash and movement in current
financial investments, if any, the cash advances and loans given to
third parties, if any, included in the net cash flows generated
from/used in (-) investing activities
• the cash used for other liabilities related to the acquisition or
disposal of businesses, if any, included in the net cash flows
generated from/used in (-) operating activities.
This alternative liquidity measure is in our view an important
metric for a biotech company in the development stage. The
operational cash burn for the first six months of 2024 amounted to
€250.0 million and can be reconciled to our cash flow statement by
considering the decrease in cash and cash equivalents of €95.4
million, adjusted by (i) the net sale of current financial
investments amounting to €200.3 million, (ii) the cash-out related
to the sale of subsidiaries of €8.8 million, and (iii) the
acquisition of financial assets held at fair value through other
comprehensive income of €36.9 million.
