Price Chairman and Chief Executive Officer EXHIBIT INDEX Exhibit No. Description - ----------- ----------- Exhibit 99.1 Press Release of the Registrant dated February 25, 2002 Exhibit 99.1 BioMarin Announces Fourth Quarter and Year-end 2001 Financial Results NOVATO, Calif., Feb 25, 2002 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (Nasdaq and Swiss SWX New Market: BMRN) today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and the full year ended December 31, 2001. Fourth Quarter 2001 Financial Results Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2001 were $3.6 million compared to $3.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. Fourth quarter 2001 revenues included $2.7 million for services provided to the Company's joint venture with Genzyme compared to $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. The net loss was $34.9 million ($0.77 per share, both basic and diluted) in the fourth quarter of 2001 compared to $10.4 million ($0.28 per share, both basic and diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2000. The net loss in the fourth quarter of 2001 included three non-routine charges that total approximately $19.8 million as follows: (1) Approximately $11.6 million as an in-process research and development expense to account for the costs related to the October 2001 acquisition of the pharmaceutical assets of IBEX Technologies Inc. This amount includes the purchase price as well as expenses associated with the transaction. (2) Approximately $7.8 million to write down goodwill and other intangible assets associated with Glyko, Inc., the Company's diagnostics business. Glyko, Inc.'s catalog business is being discontinued, and certain operating assets may be offered for sale. (3) Approximately $0.4 million in expenses related to the recently announced planned acquisition of Glyko Biomedical Ltd. (a separate entity and unrelated to Glyko, Inc.). Additional expenses related to the planned acquisition of Glyko Biomedical Ltd. will be recorded in 2002 as they are incurred. Year-end 2001 Financial Results For the year, revenues were $14.4 million compared to $12.3 million in 2000. Year 2001 revenues included $11.3 million for services provided to the Company's joint venture with Genzyme, compared to $9.7 million in 2000. The net loss in 2001 was $67.6 million ($1.65 per share, both basic and diluted) compared to $37.4 million ($1.04 per share, both basic and diluted) in 2000 and includes the three one-time charges noted above. Recent Achievements Fredric D. Price, BioMarin's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "During the last year, we made substantial progress in three clinical development programs, completed a commercial manufacturing facility, completed a clinical manufacturing facility, acquired two new product candidates, signed definitive agreements for two additional acquisitions, and strengthened the financial position of the Company. "I am pleased to highlight the following recent achievements from the fourth quarter of 2001 and early 2002:" o In an effort to solidify BioMarin's share structure, earlier this month we entered into an agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Glyko Biomedical Ltd., whose principal asset is the ownership of approximately 11.4 million shares of BioMarin. As a result of this transaction, Glyko Biomedical Ltd.'s shareholders will become direct stockholders of BioMarin, and the total number of BioMarin common shares outstanding will remain the same. o In January 2002, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Synapse Technologies Inc., a privately held biopharmaceutical company based in Vancouver, British Columbia. BioMarin intends to use Synapse's proprietary p97 technology to treat disorders of the brain by delivering lysosomal enzymes and other therapeutics across the blood- brain barrier by means of traditional intravenous injections. We expect this deal to close by the end of the first quarter. o In December 2001, we completed a $96.6 million public offering of common stock. In total, BioMarin raised approximately $156 million of equity financing in 2001 through a public offering, a private placement, and an equity line. We ended 2001 with approximately $131 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. o In November 2001, we announced positive results from the Phase 3 trial of Aldurazyme (TM), an investigational enzyme replacement therapy for the treatment of MPS I. Aldurazyme is being developed in partnership with Genzyme. o In October 2001, we acquired the Neutralase (TM) and Phenylase product programs from IBEX Technologies, Inc. Neutralase is an injectable heparinase that is targeted to reverse heparin and other new heparin- like anticoagulants during open heart and other surgeries. Phenylase is an early development stage, orally active enzyme with the potential to treat Phenylketonuria (PKU), a genetic disease caused by an enzyme deficiency. BioMarin specializes in the development and commercialization of therapeutic enzyme products to treat serious, life-threatening diseases and other conditions. This press release contains forward-looking statements about the business prospects of BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc., including the following potential future products: Aldurazyme for the treatment of MPS I, Neutralase for the reversal of anticoagulants, and Phenylase for the treatment of PKU. These forward-looking statements are predictions and involve risks and uncertainties such that actual results may differ materially from these statements. Results may differ materially depending on the progress of BioMarin's product programs, the actual results of the current and planned clinical trials, actions of regulatory authorities, the closing of planned acquisitions, availability of capital, future actions in the pharmaceutical market and developments by competitors, and those factors detailed in BioMarin's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission such as 10Q, 10K and 8K reports. Stockholders are urged not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.
