Insights

Alvotech shows strong growth with 200%+ product revenue increase and positive cash flow, while expanding partnerships and completing strategic acquisitions.

Alvotech has delivered exceptional growth with $204.7 million in product revenue for H1 2025, representing a 210% increase year-over-year from $65.9 million. This growth stems primarily from expanded sales of AVT02 (Humira biosimilar) in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, plus increasing AVT04 (Stelara biosimilar) sales in Europe and its U.S. launch.

The company's diversified revenue streams are noteworthy, with $101.3 million in license and milestone revenue supplementing product sales. While this represents a decrease from $169.7 million in H1 2024, this reflects typical milestone timing variability rather than underlying business weakness. The current period included $36.8 million from early development milestones and $21.3 million from the AVT23 clinical endpoint study completion.

Profitability metrics show Alvotech's improving operational leverage despite increased investments. Operating profit reached $28.6 million, though down from $43.4 million year-over-year due to milestone timing. The bottom line showed dramatic improvement with net profit of $141.7 million ($0.50 per share), compared to a $153.5 million loss ($0.61 per share) in the prior period.

The company has strengthened its financial foundation with $151.5 million in cash and optimization of its capital structure, including a term loan amendment that reduces interest expenses by $8.2 million annually. This improved liquidity position supports Alvotech's growth trajectory.

Strategic moves are further cementing Alvotech's vertical integration in the biosimilar space. The acquisition of Xbrane's R&D facilities enhances development capabilities, while the post-quarter acquisition of Ivers-Lee Group integrates critical downstream packaging operations for autoinjectors and pre-filled syringes. These moves, combined with expanded commercial partnerships with Advanz Pharma and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, strengthen Alvotech's end-to-end biosimilar platform.

The recent listing on Nasdaq Stockholm (complementing U.S. and Iceland listings) enhances Alvotech's access to European capital markets and investor base, evidenced by successful SEK fundraising totaling approximately 789 million.

  • Strong performance driven by over 200% growth in product revenues year-on-year
  • Best quarter in Alvotech’s history in terms of operating cash flows
  • Continued expansion of commercial partnerships for pipeline assets
  • Alvotech listed on Nasdaq Stockholm Market
  • Conference call and live webcast on Thursday August 14, 2025, 8:00 am ET (12:00pm GMT)

REYKJAVIK, Iceland, August 13, 2025 - Alvotech (NASDAQ: ALVO, or the “Company”), a global biotech company specializing in the development and manufacture of biosimilar medicines for patients worldwide, today reported financial results for the first six months of 2025 and provided a summary of recent pipeline and corporate highlights. Management will conduct a business update conference call and live webcast on August 14, 2025, at 8:00 am ET (12:00 pm GMT).

“The strong results from the first half of the year, with over 200% increase in product revenues year-on-year and the best quarter in our history in terms of operating cash flows, confirm our business momentum and the opportunities that lie ahead. New and expanded partnership agreements reflect the value of our increased development activity.

Activity in Q2 2025

Commercial Agreements

Alvotech entered into two agreements to expand the commercial partnership with Advanz Pharma, covering four biosimilar candidates, AVT48, referencing Ilaris® (canakinumab), AVT65, referencing Kesimpta® (ofatumumab), AVT10, referencing Cimzia® (certolizumab pegol), plus an undisclosed biosimilar candidate. Alvotech also announced that it had entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd. to co-develop, manufacture and commercialize AVT32, a biosimilar candidate to Keytruda® (pembrolizumab). The collaboration is intended to speed up the development process and extend the global reach of this biosimilar candidate. The parties will be jointly responsible for development and manufacturing, sharing costs and responsibilities. Each party will also have the right to commercialize the product globally, subject to certain exceptions.

Acquisitions and Funding

Alvotech completed its transaction with Xbrane Biopharma AB (“Xbrane”) with the acquisition of its R&D organization in Stockholm, Sweden and rights to a biosimilar candidate to Cimzia® (certolizumab pegol), now known as AVT10. After the end of the second quarter, in July, Alvotech acquired Ivers-Lee Group (“Ivers-Lee”), a family-owned business with headquarters in Burgdorf, Switzerland specializing in providing high-quality assembly and packaging services for the pharmaceutical sector. Ivers-Lee operations will be integrated into Alvotech’s Technical Operations division. Among Ivers-Lee’s capacities that will be integrated with Alvotech’s operations are assembly and packaging of autoinjectors, pre-filled syringes and safety devices and packaging of vials.

Alvotech completed two offerings of Swedish Depository Receipts (“SDRs”), with a public offering directed solely into Sweden, generating gross proceeds of approximately SEK 39 million and a private placement directed to Swedish and international institutional investors, generating gross proceeds of SEK 750 million. Over 3,000 new shareholders participated in the public offering and 40 institutional investors participated in the private placement. On May 19, 2025, Alvotech was listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. This is Alvotech’s third listing, complementing previous listings on Nasdaq in the US and Iceland.

Alvotech entered into an amendment to its existing term loan credit agreement, which provides, among other things, for the reduction of the interest rate, lowering interest expenses by $8.2 million in the first 12 months. Based on the amended agreement the loan consists of a single tranche with an interest rate of SOFR plus 6.0%.

Changes to Management

On July 9, 2025, Linda Jónsdóttir was appointed Chief Financial Officer, replacing Joel Morales who continues to serve in an advisory function. Linda is a highly experienced international executive with a strong background in finance and corporate leadership, including holding senior roles for 15 years at Marel, such as Director of Treasury and Investor Relations, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. Linda has also served on various boards, in banking, private equity funds and at the Icelandic Chamber of Commerce.

Summary of the financial results for the first six months of 2025

Cash position and sources of liquidity: As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $151.5 million. This strong cash position was positively impacted by robust operational performance, including significant product revenue growth and milestone collections, as well as the successful completion of a Swedish private placement that raised gross proceeds of approximately SEK 789 million. In addition, the Company had borrowings of $1,118.2 million, including $46.0 million of current portion of borrowings.

Product Revenue: Product revenue was $204.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $65.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, reflecting the sales expansion of AVT02 in the U.S., Canada, and European countries, as well as the increased sales of AVT04 in European countries, and the launch of AVT04 in the U.S.

License and Other Revenue: License and other revenue was $101.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $169.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The year-over-year decrease primarily reflects the timing of milestone achievements, with the prior-year period including significant research and development and performance-based milestones totaling $133.2 million. In the current period, license and other revenue was supported by the completion of key development phases, including $36.8 million related to completion of early development phase for multiple pipeline program, and $21.3 million for the completion of a clinical endpoint study for the AVT23 program. Additionally, $12.8 million was recognized from the achievement of sales targets for AVT04 in Europe and its launch in the U.S.

Cost of product revenue: Cost of product revenue was $139.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $65.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase reflects higher sales volumes driven by the continued expansion of AVT02 in the U.S. and the launch and expansion of AVT04 across multiple markets, including the U.S. and European countries. This increase was partially offset by lower production-related charges, reflecting improved operational efficiency.

Research and development (R&D) expenses: R&D expenses were $92.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $97.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The modest year-over-year decrease reflects the natural progression of Alvotech’s pipeline, with several programs transitioning out of the clinical phase (i.e. AVT03, AVT05, and AVT06) or reaching commercialization (i.e., AVT04). These reductions were partially offset by increased investment in advancing clinical programs, notably AVT16 and AVT29, which contributed to a $33.1 million rise in direct program expenses.

General and administrative (G&A) expenses: G&A expenses were $45.3 million for the six months ended June30, 2025, compared to $29.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in G&A expenses was primarily driven by an increase of $13.6 million in third-party services costs, which included legal fees related to ongoing intellectual property proceedings and advisory costs associated with the Company’s Swedish listing and the acquisition of Xbrane’s operations.

Operating profit: Operating profit was $28.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $43.4 million for the same period in the prior year. The year-over-year decrease reflects the timing of milestone-related revenue recognized in the prior period, partially offset by increased product sales across key markets. The Company continued to invest strategically in commercialization efforts, regulatory advancement, and pipeline development, positioning Alvotech for long-term growth and operational scale.

Finance income: Finance income was $149.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $80.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Finance income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, which was positively impacted by the decrease in the Company's share price during the period.

Finance costs: Finance costs were $72.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $277.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The current period’s finance costs primarily reflect interest charges on outstanding debt of $1,118.2 million. The prior-year period included $130.4 million in non-cash charges related to the fair value of derivative liabilities, which were negatively impacted by an increase in Alvotech’s share price, and $79.1 million in interest charges on debt of $1,055.9 million. Additionally, the early redemption of existing debt in connection with the July 2024 refinancing resulted in a $63.1 million loss on remeasurement due to the acceleration of previously deferred debt issuance costs and discounts in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The year-over-year reduction in finance costs reflects the Company’s proactive capital structure management and the transition to a more efficient financing arrangement.

Exchange rate differences: Exchange rate differences resulted in a loss of $19.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a gain of $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The change was primarily driven by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, notably between the Icelandic krona and the U.S. dollar.

Gain on modification and extinguishment of financial liabilities: On June 26, 2025, Alvotech announced an amendment to its existing term loan facility, reflecting continued efforts to optimize its capital structure. Under the revised agreement, the Company’s lenders agreed to reduce the interest rate to SOFR plus 6.0% and consolidate the facility’s two tranches into a single tranche, with an increase of $169.0 to the single tranche. As a result of the amendment, Alvotech recorded a net gain of $16.7 million on the modification and extinguishment of financial liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by the reduction of the interest rate to SOFR plus 6.0% per annum.

Income tax benefit / (expense): Income tax benefit was $39.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to an income tax expense of $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The favorable variance was primarily driven by a $47.4 million tax benefit resulting from the strengthening of the Icelandic krona against the U.S. dollar, which increased the U.S. dollar value of Icelandic tax loss carryforwards, which the Company expects to utilize against future taxable profits. This benefit was partially offset by a $3.7 million tax expense related to profitability generated in Iceland during the period.

Profit / (loss) for the Period: Reported net profit was $141.7 million, or $0.50 per share and $0.49 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a reported net loss of $153.5 million, or ($0.61) per share on a basic and diluted basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The significant increase reflects strong growth in product revenue, favorable movements in the fair value of derivative liabilities, and lower finance costs following the Company’s capital structure optimization.
