SAN CARLOS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BeiGene, Ltd. (NASDAQ: ONC; HKEX: 06160; SSE: 688235), a global oncology company that will change its name to BeOne Medicines, Ltd., today announced financial results and corporate updates from the first quarter 2025.

“We delivered another exceptional quarter, achieving our first quarter of GAAP profitability with continued global revenue growth. In the U.S., BRUKINSA remains the leader in new chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patient starts across all lines of therapy, and for the first time has become the overall BTKi market share leader,” said John V. Oyler, Co-Founder, Chairman, and CEO of BeiGene. “We’ve made significant strides across our late-stage hematology and solid tumor pipelines, with multiple proof-of-concept readouts expected this year across our broad portfolio of antibody-drug conjugates, multispecific antibodies and targeted protein degraders. With accelerating financial momentum and a diversified global footprint spanning six continents, we are well positioned — as we transition to BeOne Medicines and redomicile to Switzerland — to become one of the world’s most impactful oncology innovators.”

First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Revenue for the first quarter of 2025 was $1.1 billion, compared to $752 million in the prior-year period driven primarily by growth in BRUKINSA product sales in the U.S. and Europe.

Product Revenue totaled $1.1 billion for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $747 million in the prior-year period. The increase in product revenue was primarily attributable to increased sales of BRUKINSA. The U.S. continued to be the Company’s largest market, with product revenue of $563 million compared to $351 million in the prior-year period. In-licensed products from Amgen and TEVIMBRA also contributed to product revenue growth.

• U.S. sales of BRUKINSA totaled $563 million in the first quarter of 2025, representing growth of 60% over the prior-year period driven primarily by demand, with more than 60% of the quarter-over-quarter growth coming from expanded use in CLL as BRUKINSA continued to gain share as the leader in new patient starts in the U.S. in CLL and all other approved indications; BRUKINSA sales in Europe totaled $116 million in the first quarter of 2025, representing growth of 73% compared to the prior-year period, driven by increased market share across all major European markets, including Germany, Italy, Spain, France and the UK.
• Sales of TEVIMBRA totaled $171 million in the first quarter of 2025, representing growth of 18% compared to the prior-year period.

Gross Margin as a percentage of global product sales for the first quarter of 2025 was 85.1% compared to 83.3% in the prior-year period on a GAAP basis. The gross margin percentage increased due to a proportionally higher sales mix of global BRUKINSA compared to other products in our portfolio. Gross margins also benefited from cost of sales productivity improvements for both BRUKINSA and TEVIMBRA. On an adjusted basis, which does not include depreciation and amortization, gross margin as a percentage of product sales increased to 85.5% for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 83.7% in the prior-year period.

Operating Expenses

The following table summarizes operating expenses for the first quarter of 2025:

		GAAP						Non-GAAP
(unaudited, in thousands, except percentages)		Q1 2025		Q1 2024		% Change		Q1 2025		Q1 2024		% Change
Research and development		$481,887		$460,638		5%		$421,195		$405,440		4%
Selling, general and administrative		$459,288		$427,427		7%		$395,511		$372,146		6%
Total operating expenses		$941,175		$888,065		6%		$816,706		$777,586		5%

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses increased for the first quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis primarily due to advancing preclinical programs into the clinic and early clinical programs into late stage. Upfront fees and milestone payments related to in-process R&D for in-licensed assets totaled nil and $35 million in the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses increased for the first quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis due to continued investment in the global commercial expansion of BRUKINSA primarily in the U.S. and Europe. SG&A expenses as a percentage of product sales were 41% for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 57% in the prior-year period.

Net Income/(Loss) and Earnings Per Share

GAAP net income improved for the first quarter of 2025, as compared to the prior-year period loss, primarily attributable to revenue growth and improved operating leverage.

For the first quarter of 2025, both basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.00 per share and $0.01 per American Depositary Share (ADS), respectively, compared to basic loss of $0.19 per share and $2.41 per ADS in the prior-year period.

Cash Provided by Operations for the first quarter of 2025 was $44 million, an increase of $353 million over the prior-year period.

Full Year 2025 Guidance

BeiGene is maintaining its full year 2025 revenue and expense guidance. Guidance is summarized below:

		FY 20251
Total Revenue		$4.9 billion to $5.3 billion
GAAP Operating Expenses (R&D and SG&A)		$4.1 billion to $4.4 billion
Additional:	GAAP Gross Margin Percentage in mid-80% range
	Positive Full Year GAAP Operating Income Generation of Positive Cash Flow from Operations

¹ Does not assume any potential new, material business development activity or unusual/non-recurring items. Assumes January 31, 2025 foreign exchange rates.

BeiGene’s total revenue guidance for full year 2025 of $4.9 billion to $5.3 billion includes expectations for strong revenue growth driven by BRUKINSA’s U.S. leadership position and continued global expansion in both Europe and other important rest of world markets. Gross margin percentage is expected to be in the mid-80% range due to mix and production efficiencies as compared to 2024. BeiGene’s guidance for combined operating expenses on a GAAP basis includes expectations of investment to support growth in both commercial and research at a pace that continues to deliver meaningful operating leverage. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude costs related to share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, are expected to track with GAAP operating expenses, with reconciling items unchanged from existing practice. Operating expense guidance does not assume any potential new, material business development activity or unusual/non-recurring items.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

BeiGene provides certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Operating Expenses Adjusted Operating Loss, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and certain other non-GAAP income statement line items, each of which include adjustments to GAAP figures. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information on BeiGene’s operating performance. Adjustments to BeiGene’s GAAP figures exclude, as applicable, non-cash items such as share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization. Certain other special items or substantive events may also be included in the non-GAAP adjustments periodically when their magnitude is significant within the periods incurred. Non-GAAP adjustments are tax effected to the extent there is US GAAP current tax expense. The Company currently records a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets, so there is no net impact recorded for deferred tax effects. BeiGene maintains an established non-GAAP policy that guides the determination of what costs will be excluded in non-GAAP financial measures and the related protocols, controls and approval with respect to the use of such measures. BeiGene believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP figures, can enhance an overall understanding of BeiGene’s operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures are included with the intent of providing investors with a more complete understanding of the Company’s historical and expected financial results and trends and to facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to projected information. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the indicators BeiGene’s management uses for planning and forecasting purposes and measuring the Company’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
