RELYVRIO™ (sodium phenylbutyrate and taurursodiol) approved for the treatment of ALS in adults and now commercially available in the U.S., representing second product launch for Amylyx worldwide

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Nov. 10, 2022 -- Amylyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMLX) (“Amylyx” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

“The third quarter has proven to be a transformative time for Amylyx and the ALS community, marked by the regulatory approval of our new oral therapy for the treatment of ALS in the United States and commercial availability of our first product in Canada,” said Joshua Cohen and Justin Klee, Co-CEOs of Amylyx. “We are thrilled that RELYVRIO and ALBRIOZA are now available to people living with ALS in the U.S. and Canada, and we are encouraged by the early trajectory of enrollment in our Amylyx Care Team (ACT) Support Program as well as the rate of new prescriptions for this important new therapeutic option. We continue to work expeditiously during the early stages of our commercial launch to ensure every elibible person living with ALS will gain access as quickly and efficiently as possible.”

•

Announced FDA approval of RELYVRIO™ (sodium phenylbutyrate and taurursodiol) for the treatment of adults with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) on September 29. This decision represents Amylyx’ first regulatory approval in the U.S. and second worldwide. Shipments of RELYVRIO, previously known as AMX0035, commenced on October 24.

•

Announced availability of ALBRIOZA™ (sodium phenylbutyrate and ursodoxicoltaurine) in Canada for the treatment of ALS. Commercial launch of ALBRIOZA, previously known as AMX0035, in Canada commenced on July 29. This announcement marked the first commercial availability of AMX0035 worldwide.

•

Marketing Authorisation Application (MAA) for AMX0035 for the treatment of ALS under review with European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP). The Company has received the Rapporteurs Day 150 Joint Assessment Report, which is provided to applicants as a reference as the CHMP collects comments to responses made to the Day 120 List of Questions. The Company has resolved certain major objections from the Day 120 List of Questions and will continue to work to address those remaining as part of the MAA review process. The Company currently expects a decision from the EMA in the first half of 2023. Preparations are underway for commercialization of AMX0035 in the European Union if remaining objections are resolved and approval is received.

•

Announced publication of preclinical data showing the combined potential synergistic effect of sodium phenylbutyrate and taurursodiol, compared to the individual compounds, in the peer-reviewed medical journal, Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology. These data on the transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles of primary skin fibroblasts from adults with sporadic ALS and adults without ALS showed that combined sodium phenylbutyrate and taurursodiol had a greater and more distinct effect on genes and metabolites involved in ALS-relevant pathways compared to either sodium phenylbutyrate or taurursodiol (also known as ursodoxicoltaurine) alone.

•

Presented preclinical data at the Northeast Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Consortium (NEALS) Annual Meeting on AMX0114, a new, internally developed compound targeting Calpain-2 (CAPN2), a critical effector of axonal degeneration. AMX0114 is in Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling studies.

•

Completed an upsized public offering. In October, the Company raised $230.8 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses in a public offering of common stock.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, net product revenue was $0.3 million and cost of sales were $0.2 million. Both net product revenue and cost of sales during the period were attributable to sales of ALBRIOZA in Canada. There were no product revenues or cost of sales for the comparable period in 2021.

Research and development expenses were $24.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to $12.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The increase was mainly driven by higher product manufacturing and development expenses in support of the global Phase 3 PHOENIX clinical trial and launch preparation activities for commercialization, as well as additional personnel-related expenses due to new headcount to support research and development efforts.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $29.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to $10.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The increase was mainly driven by higher personnel-related expenses to support launch preparation initiatives as well as increased expenses for commercial readiness activities and operations as a public company.

Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, was $53.8 million, or $0.92 per share, compared to a net loss of $23.1 million, or $3.42 per share, for the same period in 2021.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $162.6 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $206.7 million at June 30, 2022. The September 30, 2022 balance excludes aggregate net proceeds from Amylyx’ upsized public offering of common stock of $230.8 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, which closed on October 11, 2022.
