Positive Outlook

  • INGREZZA Net Product Sales guidance reflects expected net product sales of INGREZZA in tardive dyskinesia and chorea associated with Huntington’s disease.
  • GAAP R&D guidance includes expense for development milestones once determined achievement is deemed probable.
  • Acquired in-process research and development expense is included in guidance once significant collaboration and licensing arrangements have been completed.
  • Non-GAAP guidance adjusted primarily to exclude estimated non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $75 million in R&D and $100 million in SG&A.
  • SG&A guidance range reflects expense for ongoing commercial initiatives supporting INGREZZA growth including the expanded indication to treat chorea associated with Huntington’s disease and pre-launch commercial activities for crinecerfont.
