Legend Biotech Announces Preliminary Results for the Six-Months Ended June 30, 2024

SOMERSET, N.J., July 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Legend Biotech Corporation (NASDAQ: LEGN) (Legend Biotech), a global leader in cell therapy, today announced preliminary, unaudited financial results for the six-months ended June 30, 2024.

For the six-months ended June 30, 2024, Legend Biotech expects to record an adjusted net loss for the period of approximately $94.7 million to $109.7 million. See “Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of net loss to adjusted net loss for the first six months of the year.

This preliminary estimated data should not be considered as a substitute for the full unaudited financial results for the six-months ended June 30, 2024, which Legend Biotech expects to report on Friday, August 9, 2024. This information reflects Legend Biotech’s preliminary estimates, based on currently available information. Legend Biotech has provided estimated ranges, rather than point estimates, primarily because financial closing procedures for the period are not yet completed and final results may therefore vary from these estimates. These preliminary estimates have not been audited by Legend Biotech’s independent registered public accounting firm.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures
We report certain financial information using non-IFRS financial measures, as these financial measures are to be reported as part of a Profit Alert announcement issued by Legend Biotech’s largest shareholder pursuant to Rule 13.09 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. Adjusted net loss is defined as Legend Biotech’s net loss excluding the impact of certain items, each as set forth in the reconciliation below. These non-IFRS financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. For certain non-IFRS financial measures, there are no directly comparable amounts under IFRS. These non-IFRS financial measures should not be viewed as alternatives to measures of financial performance determined in accordance with IFRS. Non-IFRS measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS and should be viewed as supplemental and in addition to Legend Biotech’s financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. Please see the following reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial measures used in this release.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Legend Biotech’s net loss for the six-month period to adjusted net loss for the six-month period:

 Six months ended
June 30, 2024
(in millions, US$)(Unaudited) 
Net loss for the six-month period(75.4) (87.4) 
Equity-settled share-based compensation expenses, net of tax38.4  44.5  
Exchange gains(57.7) (66.8) 
Adjusted net loss for the six-month period(94.7) (109.7) 
 

Adjusted net loss for the year is a non-IFRS financial measure. Adjusted net loss for the year has limitations in that it does not reflect all expense items that affect Legend Biotech’s results.
