Positive Outlook

  • Mid-July foreign exchange and interest rates apply.

  • A reduction in new-to-brand prescriptions, and on physician administered product demand during the second quarter, recovering during the third quarter and fully recovered in the fourth quarter.
  • All clinical trial activities are planned to resume by the end of the year where local country restrictions have been lifted.

Challenges Ahead

  • The financial guidance excludes any specified items that have not yet been identified and quantified.
