Full year 2023 revenue of $6.3 billion, up 1% as-reported and 3% at constant currency Full year 2023 diluted earnings per share of $3.99 and non-GAAP Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.14 Full year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 billion, representing a 31.0% Adjusted EBITDA margin Full year 2024 financial guidance ranges provided; full year revenue range of $6.2 billion to $6.5 billion and Adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 31.0% to 33.0% JERSEY CITY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Organon (NYSE: OGN) today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023. "As we move into 2024, our priorities are to deliver our third year of constant currency revenue growth and to achieve a stable to improving Adjusted EBITDA margin. Delivering this financial pro key for us to be able to continue advancing on our mission of a healthier every day for every woman. There’s a tremendous opportunity in women’s health to address significant unmet needs and we are well positioned at the forefront of that effort." Fourth Quarter 2023 Revenue in $ millions Q4 2023 Q4 2022 VPY VPY ex-FX Women’s Health $ 465 $ 433 7 % 8 % Biosimilars 199 134 49 % 48 % Established Brands 915 888 3 % 3 % Other (1) 19 30 (37 )% (42 )% Revenues $ 1,598 $ 1,485 8 % 8 % (1) Other includes manufacturing sales to Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA and other third parties. For the fourth quarter of 2023, total revenue was $1,598 million, an increase of 8% on an as-reported basis as well as excluding impact of foreign currency (ex-FX), compared with the fourth quarter of 2022. Women’s Health revenue increased 7% on an as-reported basis, and increased 8% ex-FX in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared with the fourth quarter of 2022 driven primarily by strong growth in the company's fertility products, particularly Follistim AQ® (follitropin beta injection). Follistim grew 63% ex-FX in the fourth quarter due to a one-time buy-in as a result of the exit of the Interim Operating Model ("IOM") in the United States, increased demand in the U.S. that was largely tied to onboarding a new customer, as well as volume recovery in China tied to fertility patients returning to clinics following abating COVID-19 concerns. The Women's Health franchise also benefited from strong performance of oral contraceptives Marvelon™ (ethinylestradiol, desogestrel) and Mercilon™ (ethinylestradiol, desogestrel) which was driven in part by the reacquisition of rights in selected territories in Southeast Asia and China during 2022, as well as continued uptake of the Jada® system. Performance was partially offset by a 3% ex-FX decline in Nexplanon® (etonogestrel implant) primarily related to customer buying patterns associated with the company's decision to forgo its normal Nexplanon list-price increase in 2023, as well as a 12% ex-FX decrease in NuvaRing® (etonogestrel/ethinyl estradiol vaginal ring) which continues to be impacted by generic competition. Biosimilars revenue increased 49% on an as-reported basis and increased 48% ex-FX in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared with the fourth quarter of 2022 primarily driven by Ontruzant® (trastuzumab-dttb), which grew 76% ex-FX and benefited from favorable timing of tender phasing in Brazil, and Renflexis® (infliximab-abda), which grew 28% ex-FX primarily due to U.S. strong volume growth. Revenue of Hadlima™ (adalimumab-bwwd) more than doubled in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared with the fourth quarter of 2022 as a result of continued uptake since its July 2023 launch in the U.S. Established Brands revenue increased 3% as-reported and 3% ex-FX in the fourth quarter of 2023 despite the impacts of Volume Based Procurement (VBP) initiatives and a challenging operating environment in China. Growth in the quarter was driven by a 13% ex-FX increase in the respiratory portfolio. In the cardiovascular portfolio, continued growth in Atozet™ (ezetimibe and atorvastatin calcium) partially offset a decline in Cozaar®/Hyzaar® (losartan) products which are subject to ongoing generic competition.

Unfavorable foreign exchange translation and to a lesser extent, product mix more than offset a favorable year-over-year comparison to the fourth quarter 2022 when the company took a market action on certain injectable steroid products. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 28.1% in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared with 25.6% in the fourth quarter of 2022 primarily due to lower year-over-year operating expenses and lower loss on foreign exchange translation attributable to the year-over-year comparison of the amount of the company's Euro-denominated debt covered under a net investment hedge program. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $546 million, or $2.13 per diluted share, compared with $108 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP Adjusted net income was $226 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, compared with $208 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, in 2022. Reported GAAP net income for the fourth quarter includes a net $476 million tax benefit resulting from the termination of a Swiss tax arrangement.

Total revenue was $6.3 billion for full year 2023, an increase of 1% as-reported and an increase of 3% ex-FX, compared with the full year 2022. Women’s Health revenue increased 2% as-reported and 3% ex-FX for full year 2023 compared with 2022. Strong growth in the company's fertility portfolio, which was up 9% ex-FX for the full year, a 24% ex-FX increase in oral contraceptives Marvelon/Mercilon and continued uptake of the Jada System, were the strongest revenue contributors to the Women’s Health franchise in 2023. Together these factors more than offset an 11% ex-FX decline in NuvaRing, which continues to be impacted by generic competition. Modest growth of Nexplanon of 1% ex-FX for the full year reflects the impact of the limited participation of a tender in Mexico and customer buying patterns associated with the company's decision to forgo its normal list price increase for Nexplanon in 2023. Biosimilars revenue increased 23% as-reported and 24% ex-FX for full year 2023 compared with 2022, driven primarily by continued demand growth in the U.S. and Canada for Renflexis and favorable phasing of tenders in Brazil and increased demand for Ontruzant, partially offset by competitive pressures in Europe. Revenue for Established Brands declined 1% as-reported and increased 2% ex-FX for the full year 2023 despite VBP initiatives and a challenging operating environment in China as well as supply interruptions of certain of the company's injectable steroid products stemming from the market action taken earlier in the year. Performance was driven by 2% growth in volume across the portfolio, partially offset by 1% price pressure. The company expects flat performance in the Established Brands franchise for full year 2024 on an ex-FX basis.

The year-over-year decrease in Adjusted gross margin reflects higher cost of sales due to foreign exchange translation and product mix, and to a lesser extent, higher employee-related and distribution-related costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 31.0% for the full year 2023 compared with 33.8% for the full year 2022. The year-over-year decrease was primarily a result of a lower Adjusted gross margin. Higher selling and promotional costs were mostly offset by lower total research and development spend, which includes in-process research and development (IPR&D). Net income for 2023 was $1.0 billion, or $3.99 per diluted share, compared with $917 million, or $3.59 per diluted share in 2022. Non-GAAP Adjusted net income was $1.1 billion or $4.14 per diluted share, compared with $1.3 billion, or $5.03 per diluted share in 2022. The year-over-year decline in net income was primarily due to higher interest expense due to increased interest rates, and accelerated amortization of capitalized financing costs associated with voluntary prepayments on the company’s U.S. dollar-denominated term loan. Capital Allocation Today, Organon’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 for each issued and outstanding share of the company's common stock. The dividend is payable on March 14, 2024, to stockholders of record at the close of business on February 26, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $693 million, and debt was $8.8 billion. Full Year Guidance Organon does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company cannot predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts, and acquisition-related expenses.

Full year 2024 financial guidance is presented below on a non-GAAP basis. For full year 2024, Organon expects constant currency revenue growth in the low-single-digit range and expects stable to improving Adjusted EBITDA margin, which Organon expects to achieve, in part, through operating expense management. 2024 Full Year Guidance Revenues $6.2B-$6.5B Adjusted gross margin 61.0% - 63.0% SG&A $1.5B - $1.7B R&D (excluding IPR&D) $400M - $500M Adjusted EBITDA margin 31.0% - 33.0% Interest ~$520M Depreciation ~$130M Effective non-GAAP tax rate 18.5% - 20.5% Fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding ~259M Webcast Information Organon will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time today to discuss its fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results.

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are correspondingly not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, which are not recognized terms under GAAP and are presented only as a supplement to the company’s GAAP financial statements. This press release also provides certain measures that exclude the impact of foreign exchange. We calculate foreign exchange by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period average currency rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. The company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help to enhance an understanding of the company’s financial performance. However, the presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. You should refer to Table 4 and Table 5 of this press release for relevant definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. In addition, the company’s full-year 2024 guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP basis because the company is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures. Such items include, but are not limited to, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses, stock-based compensation, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations. The company uses non-GAAP financial measures in its operational and financial decision making and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more meaningful representation of the underlying operating performance of the business. Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Except for historical information, this press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements about management’s expectations about Organon’s future financial performance and prospects, including full-year 2024 guidance estimates and predictions regarding other financial information and metrics, and franchise and product performance and strategy expectations for future periods.

If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, an inability to fully execute on our product development and commercialization plans within the United States or internationally; an inability to adapt to the industry-wide trend toward highly discounted channels; changes in tax laws or other tax guidance that could adversely affect our cash tax liability, effective tax rates, and results of operations and lead to greater audit scrutiny; an inability to execute on our business development strategy or realize the benefits of our planned acquisitions; efficacy, safety, or other quality concerns with respect to marketed products, including market actions such as recalls, withdrawals, or declining sales; political and social pressures, or regulatory developments, that adversely impact demand for, availability of, or patient access to contraception or fertility products; general economic factors, including recessionary pressures, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; general industry conditions and competition; the impact of pharmaceutical industry regulation and health care legislation in the United States and internationally; global trends toward health care cost containment; technological advances; new products and patents attained by competitors; the impact of higher selling and promotional costs; any failure by Organon to obtain an additional period of market exclusivity in the United States for Nexplanon subsequent to the expiration of certain key patents in 2027; challenges inherent in new product development, including obtaining regulatory approval; the company’s ability to accurately predict its future financial results and performance; manufacturing difficulties or delays; financial instability of international economies and sovereign risk; difficulties developing and sustaining relationships with commercial counterparties; dependence on the effectiveness of the company’s patents and other protections for innovative products; and the exposure to litigation, including patent litigation, and/or regulatory actions. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Second quarter 2023 revenue of $1,608 million Second quarter 2023 diluted earnings per share of $0.95 and non-GAAP Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.31 Adjusted EBITDA of $530 million Board of Directors declares quarterly dividend of $0.28 per share Full year 2023 financial guidance ranges updated: Revenue range narrowed to $6.25 billion to $6.45 billion, primarily reflecting current foreign currency exchange rates Adjusted EBITDA margin range now 31.5%-33.0% to incorporate current visibility on IPR&D (in-process research and development) and milestones JERSEY CITY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Organon (NYSE: OGN) today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023. "During the second quarter of 2023, Organon continued to build on its track record, delivering solid volume growth across all regions and franchises. The Women's Health and Biosimilars franchise revenue grew 10% and 15% excluding the impact of foreign currency ("ex-FX"), respectively, and Established Brands continued to demonstrate stability," said Kevin Ali, Organon's CEO. "Further, on July 1st we launched Hadlima™ (adalimumab-bwwd) in the United States - so far our biggest commercial launch in the U.S. as a standalone company. Hadlima is emerging as one of a few biosimilars offerings earning commercial success so far. We are encouraged by our early traction and remain confident in our strategy, the attributes of our product and our collaborator's capabilities to deliver reliable supply." Second Quarter 2023 Revenue in $ millions Q2 2023 Q2 2022 VPY VPY ex-FX Women’s Health $ 438 $ 408 8% 10% Biosimilars 135 119 14% 15% Established Brands 995 1,018 (2)% —% Other (1) 40 40 (2)% (1)% Revenues $ 1,608 $ 1,585 1% 4% (1) Other includes manufacturing sales to Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA and other third parties. For the second quarter of 2023, total revenue was $1,608 million, an increase of 1% as-reported and an increase of 4% excluding the impact of foreign currency (ex-FX), compared with the second quarter of 2022. Women’s Health revenue increased 8% on an as-reported basis, and increased 10% ex-FX in the second quarter of 2023 compared with the second quarter of 2022 driven primarily by a 12% ex-FX increase in Nexplanon® (etonogestrel implant), a long-acting reversible contraceptive. The Women's Health franchise also benefited from 17% ex-FX growth in the fertility portfolio during the quarter due to COVID-19 recovery in China as well as strong demand in the LAMERA region and in the U.S. Growth in the Women's Health franchise was partially offset by a 3% ex-FX decrease of NuvaRing® (etonogestrel/ethinyl estradiol vaginal ring) which continues to be impacted by generic competition. Biosimilars revenue increased 14% as-reported and 15% ex-FX in the second quarter of 2023, compared with the second quarter of 2022 primarily driven by Renflexis® (infliximab-abda) which grew 20% ex-FX due to continued demand and strong volume growth in United States and Canada. Growth in the biosimilars franchise was partially offset by a 7% ex-FX decline in Ontruzant® (trastuzumab-dttb) primarily related to ongoing competitive pressures in Europe. On July 1, 2023, the company launched Hadlima, a biosimilar to Humira (adalimumab) (a trademark of AbbVie Biotechnology Ltd.) in the United States. Organon already markets Hadlima in Canada and Australia. Established Brands revenue decreased 2% as-reported and was flat ex-FX in the second quarter of 2023, despite the negative impact from Volume Based Procurement (VBP) initiatives in China and the year over year impact of the company's market action taken in the first quarter of 2023 on select injectable steroids, Diprospan™ (bethamethasone), and Celestone Chronodose™ (bethamethasone), and Celestone Soluspan™ (bethamethasone). Offsetting factors included an 18% ex-FX year over year increase in Atozet™ (ezetimibe and atorvastatin calcium) which was driven by increased demand in the EUCAN region, as well as 23% ex-FX growth in Arcoxia™ (etoricoxib) which was driven by increased volume in the LAMERA region. Year to date, the Established Brands portfolio has grown 1% ex-FX, as 2% volume growth has offset an approximate 1% decline in price across the portfolio. The company continues to expect the Established Brands franchise to achieve flat revenue growth for the full year 2023. Second Quarter 2023 Profitability in $ millions, except per share amounts Q2 2023 Q2 2022 VPY Revenues $ 1,608 $ 1,585 1% Cost of sales 640 588 9% Gross profit 968 997 (3)% Non-GAAP Adjusted gross profit (1) 1,012 1,047 (3)% Adjusted EBITDA (1,2) 530 512 4% Net income 242 234 3% Non-GAAP Adjusted net income (1) 336 319 5% Diluted Earnings per Share (EPS) 0.95 0.92 3% Non-GAAP Adjusted diluted EPS (1) 1.31 1.25 5% Acquired in-process research & development (IPR&D) and milestones — 97 NM Per share impact to diluted EPS from acquired IPR&D and milestones — (0.30) NM Q2 2023 Q2 2022 Gross margin 60.2% 62.9% Non-GAAP Adjusted gross margin (1) 62.9% 66.1% Adjusted EBITDA margin (1,2) 33.0% 32.3% (1) See Tables 4 and 5 for reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures (2) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin include $97 million in the second quarter of 2022 related to acquired IPR&D and milestones, no such expense was incurred in the second quarter of 2023 Gross margin was 60.2% as-reported and 62.9% on an adjusted basis in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 62.9% as-reported and 66.1% on an adjusted basis in the second quarter of 2022. The year-over-year decline in gross margin is primarily due to product mix as well as employee-related costs and distribution related costs, which increased as a result of inflationary pressures in 2023. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 33.0% in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 32.3% in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily a result of $97 million of IPR&D and milestones in the second quarter of 2022; no such costs were incurred in the second quarter of 2023. Net income for the second quarter of 2023 was $242 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, compared with $234 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP Adjusted net income was $336 million, or $1.31 per diluted share, compared with $319 million, or $1.25 per diluted share, in 2022. The year over year increase in net income was a result of higher Adjusted EBITDA compared with the second quarter of 2022 as well as a tax benefit in the second quarter of 2023 related to earnings outside of the U.S., partially offset by higher interest expense associated with the company's variable rate debt. Capital Allocation Today, Organon’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 for each issued and outstanding share of the company's common stock. The dividend is payable on September 14, 2023, to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 18, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $326 million, and debt was $8.7 billion. Full Year Guidance Organon does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company cannot predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts, and acquisition-related expenses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to Organon’s results computed in accordance with GAAP. The company is updating its full year 2023 guidance ranges previously provided on May 4, 2023. The range for full year 2023 revenue is narrowed to $6.25 billion to $6.45 billion, which primarily reflects current foreign currency exchange rates. The range for full year Adjusted EBITDA margin is now 31.5% to 33.0% to incorporate the company's current visibility of IPR&D and milestone expenses expected to be incurred in 2023. Organon's financial guidance does not assume an estimate for future IPR&D and milestone payments for business development transactions not yet executed. Full year 2023 financial guidance is presented below on a non-GAAP basis.

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are correspondingly not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, which are not recognized terms under GAAP and are presented only as a supplement to the company’s GAAP financial statements. This press release also provides certain measures that exclude the impact of foreign exchange. We calculate foreign exchange by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period average currency rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. The company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help to enhance an understanding of the company’s financial performance. However, the presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. You should refer to Table 4 and Table 5 of this press release for relevant definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. In addition, the company’s full-year 2023 guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP basis because the company is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures. Such items include, but are not limited to, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses, stock-based compensation, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations. The company uses non-GAAP financial measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more meaningful representation of the underlying operating performance of the business. Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Except for historical information, this press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements about management’s expectations about Organon’s future financial performance and prospects. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “will” or words of similar meaning. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, an inability to fully execute on our product development and commercialization plans within the United States or internationally; changes in tax laws or other tax guidance which could adversely affect our cash tax liability, effective tax rates, and results of operations and lead to greater audit scrutiny; an inability to execute on our business development strategy or realize the benefits of our planned acquisitions; efficacy, safety, or other quality concerns with respect to marketed products, including market actions such as recalls, withdrawals, or declining sales; political and social pressures, or regulatory developments, that adversely impact demand for, availability of, or patient access to contraception or fertility products; general economic factors, including recessionary pressures, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; general industry conditions and competition; the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and emergence of variant strains; the impact of pharmaceutical industry regulation and health care legislation in the United States and internationally; global trends toward health care cost containment; technological advances; new products and patents attained by competitors; challenges inherent in new product development, including obtaining regulatory approval; the company’s ability to accurately predict its future financial results and performance; manufacturing difficulties or delays; financial instability of international economies and sovereign risk; difficulties developing and sustaining relationships with commercial counterparties; dependence on the effectiveness of the company’s patents and other protections for innovative products; and the exposure to litigation, including patent litigation, and/or regulatory actions. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, available at the SEC’s Internet site ( ).
