BioMarin reported a strong financial performance for Q2 2024, with total revenues reaching $712 million, a 20% increase year-over-year (Y/Y). The company also raised its full-year 2024 guidance. Key drivers include strong global demand for VOXZOGO, which saw a 73% Y/Y increase in the number of children receiving treatment, and robust performance of enzyme therapies. GAAP diluted EPS for the quarter was $0.55, a 90% Y/Y increase, while Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.96, up 78% Y/Y.
VOXZOGO contributions were significant, with nearly 900 new patient starts in the first half of 2024. BioMarin's enzyme therapies also showed strong growth, partially offset by lower revenues from KUVAN due to generic competition. GAAP net income for Q2 2024 increased by $51.2 million to $107.2 million. Non-GAAP income rose by $83.7 million to $188.9 million. Financial guidance for 2024 was updated to reflect these strong results.
BioMarin continued to make progress in its clinical programs and strategic priorities, including its supply chain efforts and development of new indications for VOXZOGO.
