(NASDAQ: INVA) (“Innoviva” or the “Company”), a diversified holding company with a core royalties portfolio, a leading critical care and infectious disease platform known as Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics (“IST”), and a portfolio of strategic investments in healthcare assets, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023 and highlighted select corporate achievements. Pavel Raifeld, Chief Executive Officer of Innoviva, said: “2023 was a successful and transformational year for Innoviva. We have seen continued strong cash flow from our core royalty portfolio, which we have been investing prudently with a laser focus on driving long-term shareholder value. Last year showcased the success of our approach with the formation and significant pipeline and commercial progress of our therapeutics platform, which is focused on becoming the industry leader in critical care and infectious disease.” Matthew Ronsheim, Ph.D., President of IST, noted, “Our therapeutics platform achieved tremendous success in its first year: we saw the approval and launch of XACDURO®, the first pathogen targeted antibacterial approved by the FDA for life threatening Acinetobacter infections caused by susceptible isolates; we reported positive Phase III data for zoliflodacin, the potential first novel oral treatment for gonorrhea; and our targeted and lean commercial platform delivered meaningful growth in our core marketed products GIAPREZA® and XERAVA®. With our best-in-class capabilities and leverageable commercial infrastructure, we are excited about our ability to deliver life-saving drugs to patients in areas of high unmet medical need and about our significant growth prospects in the coming years.” Mr. Raifeld concluded, “Innoviva’s strong financials reflect a new royalty base (following value-accretive 2022 TRELEGY® ELLIPTA® royalties monetization), a full year of integrated operations for our therapeutics platform, and significant value creation in our strategic healthcare assets. Innoviva continued to exercise financial discipline and ended the year with over $275 million in cash and account receivables, while returning capital with share repurchases of over $75 million and paying down outstanding debt of nearly $100 million. We believe our diversified growth strategy, a strong leadership team, and our focus on cost discipline position us well to deliver shareholder value.” Financial Highlights Royalty revenue: Fourth quarter 2023 gross royalty revenue from Glaxo Group Limited (“GSK”) was $69.6 million and full year was $252.7 million, compared to $54.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 and $253.4 million for the full year 2022.
