First Quarter Highlights

First quarter 2022 total net sales totaled $4.2 billion, down 1% on an operational basis compared to Q1 2021 results, and performed better than expectations, driven by solid performance across our segments—Developed Markets, Emerging Markets, JANZ (Japan, Australia and New Zealand), and Greater China.
Brands performed better than expectations, driven by products such as Lipitor®, Effexor® and Perforomist®.
Complex generics and biosimilars grew by 21% on an operational basis compared to Q1 2021 results, largely driven by our generic Restasis launch in February 2022, partially offset by competition in select complex generics products. Revenues from the biosimilars portfolio to be contributed to Biocon Biologics totaled approximately $169 million in the quarter.
Generics, which include diversified product forms such as extended-release oral solids, injectables, transdermals and topicals, performed in line with expectations.
The Company generated approximately $120 million in new product revenues (as defined in "Certain Key Terms" below) primarily driven by the launch of generic Restasis and interchangeable Semglee® in the U.S., and is on track to achieve approximately $600 million in new product revenues in 2022.
The Company generated $1.07 billion of free cash flow, primarily driven by solid U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities of $1.14 billion and the timing of planned capital expenditures.
Viatris paid a quarterly cash dividend of twelve cents ($0.12) per share on the Company's issued and outstanding common stock on March 16, 2022. On May 5, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of twelve cents ($0.12) per share on the Company's issued and outstanding common stock, which will be payable on June 16, 2022 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 24, 2022.
The Company paid down approximately $840 million in short-term debt and is targeting approximately $2 billion in debt repayment in 2022. The Company remains fully committed to maintaining its investment grade credit rating.
The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine did not have a material impact on our business during the first quarter of 2022 and combined total revenues for both countries were less than 1% of consolidated total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2022. However, trade controls, sanctions, supply chain and staffing challenges and other economic considerations related to the conflict have impacted our operations in these markets and may negatively impact our financial results in future periods. In addition, a significant escalation or expansion of the conflict's current scope may have a negative impact on our operations and financial results in future periods.

2022 Financial Guidance

The Company is not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP net earnings or a quantitative reconciliation of its 2022 adjusted EBITDA guidance to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, U.S. GAAP net earnings, because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items, including integration and acquisition-related expenses, restructuring expenses, asset impairments, litigation settlements and other contingencies, such as changes to contingent consideration and certain other gains or losses, as well as related income tax accounting, because certain of these items have not occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period. U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities for 2022 is estimated to be between $3.2 billion and $3.4 billion.

Conference Call and Earnings Materials

Viatris Inc. will host a conference call and live webcast, today at 8:30 a.m. ET, to review the Company's financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. Investors and the general public are invited to listen to a live webcast of the call at investor.viatris.com or by calling 866.342.8591 or 203.518.9713 for international callers (ID#: VTRSQ122). The "Viatris Q1 Earnings Presentation", which will be referenced during the call, can be found at investor.viatris.com. A replay of the webcast also will be available on the website.

Certain Key Terms

New product sales, new product launches or new product revenues refer to revenue from new products launched in 2022 and the carryover impact of new products, including business development, launched within the last twelve months.

Operational change refers to constant currency percentage change and is derived by translating amounts for the current period at prior year comparative period exchange rates, and in doing so shows the percentage change from 2022 constant currency net sales, revenues and adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding amount in the prior year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the presentation and discussion of certain financial information that differs from what is reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures, including, but not limited to, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margins, adjusted net earnings, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, adjusted R&D and as a % of total revenues, adjusted SG&A and as a % of total revenues, adjusted earnings from operations, adjusted interest expense, adjusted other expense (income), net, adjusted effective tax rate, constant currency total revenues, constant currency net sales and constant currency adjusted EBITDA are presented in order to supplement investors' and other readers' understanding and assessment of the financial performance of Viatris Inc. ("Viatris" or the "Company"). Free cash flow refers to U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA margin refers to adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. Management uses these measures internally for forecasting, budgeting, measuring its operating performance, and incentive-based awards. Primarily due to acquisitions and other significant events which may impact comparability of our periodic operating results, Viatris believes that an evaluation of its ongoing operations (and comparisons of its current operations with historical and future operations) would be difficult if the disclosure of its financial results was limited to financial measures prepared only in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental information for our investors and when considered together with our U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations. The financial performance of the Company is measured by senior management, in part, using adjusted metrics included herein, along with other performance metrics. In addition, the Company believes that including EBITDA and supplemental adjustments applied in presenting adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors to demonstrate the Company's ability to comply with financial debt covenants and assess the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness. The Company also believes that adjusted EBITDA better focuses management on the Company's underlying operational results and true business performance and, is used, in part, for management's incentive compensation. We also report sales performance using the non-GAAP financial measures of "constant currency", also referred to herein as "operational change", total revenues, net sales and adjusted EBITDA. These measures provide information on the change in total revenues, net sales and adjusted EBITDA assuming that foreign currency exchange rates had not changed between the prior and current period. The comparisons presented at constant currency rates reflect comparative local currency sales at the prior year's foreign exchange rates. We routinely evaluate our net sales, total revenues and adjusted EBITDA performance at constant currency so that sales results can be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating a period-to-period comparison of our operational activities, and believe that this presentation also provides useful information to investors for the same reason. The "Summary of Total Revenues by Segment" table below compares net sales on an actual and constant currency basis for each reportable segment for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 as well as for total revenues. Also, set forth below, Viatris has provided reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Investors and other readers are encouraged to review the related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures set forth below, and investors and other readers should consider non-GAAP measures only as supplements to, not as substitutes for or as superior measures to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For additional information regarding the components and uses of Non-GAAP financial measures refer to Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of Viatris' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
