"The first quarter of 2023 represents the sixth consecutive quarter of constant currency product sales growth, with all three franchises positively contributing to performance," said Kevin Ali, Organon's CEO. "The Established Brands franchise, which represents two-thirds of our business, continues to demonstrate its durability. The associated predictability of cash flows enables us to take a balanced approach to capital allocation, continuing to deploy capital for strategic investments that will position the company for future growth, as well as to opportunistically reduce debt, as we did during the first quarter." First Quarter 2023 revenues in $ millions Q1 2023 Q1 2022 VPY VPY ex-FX Women’s Health $ 381 $ 378 1 % 3 % Biosimilars 116 99 18 % 20 % Established Brands 1,002 1,053 (5 )% 1 % Other (1) 39 37 3 % 2 % Revenues $ 1,538 $ 1,567 (2 )% 3 % (1) Other includes manufacturing sales to Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA and other third parties. For the first quarter of 2023, total revenue was $1,538 million, a decrease of 2% as-reported and an increase of 3% excluding the impact of foreign currency (ex-FX), compared with the first quarter of 2022. Women’s Health revenue grew 1% on an as-reported basis, and increased 3% ex-FX in the first quarter of 2023 compared with the first quarter of 2022 driven primarily by strong performance in oral contraceptives Marvelon™ (ethinylestradiol, desogestrel) and Mercilon™ (ethinylestradiol, desogestrel) for which Organon gained rights in selected territories in Southeast Asia and China during 2022. During the quarter, Nexplanon® (etonogestrel implant), a long-acting reversible contraceptive declined 1% ex-FX primarily due to the impact of distributors' buying patterns in prior periods. Follistim AQ® (follitropin beta injection) declined 7% ex-FX primarily related to COVID-related disruptions in China that have hampered access to fertility treatments in that market, as well as an unfavorable shift in customer mix and associated discount rates in the United States that was partially offset by strong product demand. Biosimilars revenue increased 18% as-reported and 20% ex-FX in the first quarter 2023, compared with the first quarter of 2022 primarily driven by Renflexis® (infliximab-abda) which grew 34% ex-FX due to continued demand growth in the United States and Canada as well as Brenzys™ (etanercept) which grew 36% ex-FX as a result of timing of tenders in Brazil. Ongoing competitive pressures in Europe more than offset strong U.S. growth in Ontruzant® (trastuzumab-dttb). Established Brands revenue decreased 5% as-reported and increased 1% ex-FX in the first quarter of 2023, compared with the first quarter of 2022 despite 1) the impact of Volume Based Procurement (VBP) initiatives in China which as of November 2022 included Zetia® (ezetimibe) (marketed in most countries outside of the United States as Ezetrol™) and 2) supply interruptions of Diprospan™, Celestone Chronodose™, and Celestone Soluspan™ stemming from the company's market action taken in January for those injectable steroid products. Strong performance in China and in the APJ region (Asia Pacific/Japan), primarily in markets outside Japan, were the most significant offsets to these factors.

The year-over-year decline in gross margin is primarily due to product mix as well as inflationary pressure that impacted distribution and employee-related costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 33.7% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 41.3% in the first quarter of 2022. Higher promotional and employee-related costs as well as increasing R&D spend associated with the company's recent acquisitions of clinical stage assets were the primary contributors to the decline in Adjusted EBITDA margin year over year. Net income for the first quarter of 2023 was $177 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, compared with $348 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP Adjusted net income was $276 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, compared with $420 million, or $1.65 per diluted share, in 2022. The year over year decline in net income was a result of lower Adjusted EBITDA as well as increased interest expense (related to higher interest rates and interest expense for accelerated amortization of debt fees and discounts as part of the $250 million voluntary prepayment on the U.S. dollar-denominated term loan), a higher effective tax rate and the impact of exchange losses driven by the fluctuations in foreign currency. Capital Allocation Today, Organon’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 for each issued and outstanding share of the company's common stock. The dividend is payable on June 15, 2023, to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 15, 2023. As of March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $459 million, and debt was $8.7 billion. Total debt as of March 31, 2023 reflects a discretionary first quarter prepayment of $250 million on the company’s U.S. dollar-denominated term loan. Full Year Guidance Organon does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company cannot predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts, and acquisition-related expenses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to Organon’s results computed in accordance with GAAP. Organon's financial guidance does not assume an estimate for future in-process research and development for business development transactions not yet executed.

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are correspondingly not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, which are not recognized terms under GAAP and are presented only as a supplement to the company’s GAAP financial statements. This press release also provides certain measures that exclude the impact of foreign exchange. We calculate foreign exchange by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period average currency rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. The company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help to enhance an understanding of the company’s financial performance. However, the presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. You should refer to Table 4 and Table 5 of this press release for relevant definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. In addition, the company’s full-year 2023 guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP basis because the company is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures. Such items include, but are not limited to, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses, stock-based compensation, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations. The company uses non-GAAP financial measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more meaningful representation of the underlying operating performance of the business. Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Except for historical information, this press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements about management’s expectations about Organon’s future financial performance and prospects. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “will” or words of similar meaning. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, an inability to execute on our business development strategy or realize the benefits of our planned acquisitions; efficacy, safety, or other quality concerns with respect to marketed products, including market actions such as recalls, withdrawals, or declining sales; political and social pressures, or regulatory developments, that adversely impact demand for, availability of, or patient access to contraception or fertility products; general economic factors, including recessionary pressures, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; general industry conditions and competition; the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and emergence of variant strains; the impact of pharmaceutical industry regulation and health care legislation in the United States and internationally; global trends toward health care cost containment; technological advances; new products and patents attained by competitors; challenges inherent in new product development, including obtaining regulatory approval; the company’s ability to accurately predict its future financial results and performance; manufacturing difficulties or delays; financial instability of international economies and sovereign risk; difficulties developing and sustaining relationships with commercial counterparties; dependence on the effectiveness of the company’s patents and other protections for innovative products; and the exposure to litigation, including patent litigation, and/or regulatory actions. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, available at the SEC’s Internet site (www.sec.gov).

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are correspondingly not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, which are not recognized terms under GAAP and are presented only as a supplement to the company’s GAAP financial statements. This press release also provides certain measures that exclude the impact of foreign exchange. We calculate foreign exchange by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period average currency rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. The company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help to enhance an understanding of the company’s financial performance. However, the presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. You should refer to Table 4 and Table 5 of this press release for relevant definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. In addition, the company’s full-year 2023 guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP basis because the company is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures. Such items include, but are not limited to, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses, stock-based compensation, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations. The company uses non-GAAP financial measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more meaningful representation of the underlying operating performance of the business. Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Except for historical information, this press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements about management’s expectations about Organon’s future financial performance and prospects. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “will” or words of similar meaning. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, an inability to execute on our business development strategy or realize the benefits of our planned acquisitions; efficacy, safety, or other quality concerns with respect to marketed products, including market actions such as recalls, withdrawals, or declining sales; political and social pressures, or regulatory developments, that adversely impact demand for, availability of, or patient access to contraception or fertility products; general economic factors, including recessionary pressures, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; general industry conditions and competition; the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and emergence of variant strains; the impact of pharmaceutical industry regulation and health care legislation in the United States and internationally; global trends toward health care cost containment; technological advances; new products and patents attained by competitors; challenges inherent in new product development, including obtaining regulatory approval; the company’s ability to accurately predict its future financial results and performance; manufacturing difficulties or delays; financial instability of international economies and sovereign risk; difficulties developing and sustaining relationships with commercial counterparties; dependence on the effectiveness of the company’s patents and other protections for innovative products; and the exposure to litigation, including patent litigation, and/or regulatory actions. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, available at the SEC’s Internet site (www.sec.gov).

First quarter 2023 revenue of $1,538 million First quarter 2023 diluted earnings per share of $0.69 and non-GAAP Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.08 Both reported and non-GAAP Adjusted diluted earnings per share include a negative impact of $0.03 per share for acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) Adjusted EBITDA of $518 million, inclusive of $8 million of acquired IPR&D Board of Directors declares quarterly dividend of $0.28 per share Voluntary $250 million debt repayment on U.S. dollar-denominated term loan Full year 2023 financial guidance ranges affirmed
Organon (NYSE: OGN) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023. "The first quarter of 2023 represents the sixth consecutive quarter of constant currency product sales growth, with all three franchises positively contributing to performance," said Kevin Ali, Organon's CEO. "The Established Brands franchise, which represents two-thirds of our business, continues to demonstrate its durability. The associated predictability of cash flows enables us to take a balanced approach to capital allocation, continuing to deploy capital for strategic investments that will position the company for future growth, as well as to opportunistically reduce debt, as we did during the first quarter." First Quarter 2023 revenues in $ millions Q1 2023 Q1 2022 VPY VPY ex-FX Women’s Health $ 381 $ 378 1 % 3 % Biosimilars 116 99 18 % 20 % Established Brands 1,002 1,053 (5 )% 1 % Other (1) 39 37 3 % 2 % Revenues $ 1,538 $ 1,567 (2 )% 3 % (1) Other includes manufacturing sales to Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA and other third parties. For the first quarter of 2023, total revenue was $1,538 million, a decrease of 2% as-reported and an increase of 3% excluding the impact of foreign currency (ex-FX), compared with the first quarter of 2022. Women’s Health revenue grew 1% on an as-reported basis, and increased 3% ex-FX in the first quarter of 2023 compared with the first quarter of 2022 driven primarily by strong performance in oral contraceptives Marvelon™ (ethinylestradiol, desogestrel) and Mercilon™ (ethinylestradiol, desogestrel) for which Organon gained rights in selected territories in Southeast Asia and China during 2022. During the quarter, Nexplanon® (etonogestrel implant), a long-acting reversible contraceptive declined 1% ex-FX primarily due to the impact of distributors' buying patterns in prior periods. Follistim AQ® (follitropin beta injection) declined 7% ex-FX primarily related to COVID-related disruptions in China that have hampered access to fertility treatments in that market, as well as an unfavorable shift in customer mix and associated discount rates in the United States that was partially offset by strong product demand. Biosimilars revenue increased 18% as-reported and 20% ex-FX in the first quarter 2023, compared with the first quarter of 2022 primarily driven by Renflexis® (infliximab-abda) which grew 34% ex-FX due to continued demand growth in the United States and Canada as well as Brenzys™ (etanercept) which grew 36% ex-FX as a result of timing of tenders in Brazil. Ongoing competitive pressures in Europe more than offset strong U.S. growth in Ontruzant® (trastuzumab-dttb). Established Brands revenue decreased 5% as-reported and increased 1% ex-FX in the first quarter of 2023, compared with the first quarter of 2022 despite 1) the impact of Volume Based Procurement (VBP) initiatives in China which as of November 2022 included Zetia® (ezetimibe) (marketed in most countries outside of the United States as Ezetrol™) and 2) supply interruptions of Diprospan™, Celestone Chronodose™, and Celestone Soluspan™ stemming from the company's market action taken in January for those injectable steroid products. Strong performance in China and in the APJ region (Asia Pacific/Japan), primarily in markets outside Japan, were the most significant offsets to these factors.

The year-over-year decline in gross margin is primarily due to product mix as well as inflationary pressure that impacted distribution and employee-related costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 33.7% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 41.3% in the first quarter of 2022. Higher promotional and employee-related costs as well as increasing R&D spend associated with the company's recent acquisitions of clinical stage assets were the primary contributors to the decline in Adjusted EBITDA margin year over year. Net income for the first quarter of 2023 was $177 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, compared with $348 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP Adjusted net income was $276 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, compared with $420 million, or $1.65 per diluted share, in 2022. The year over year decline in net income was a result of lower Adjusted EBITDA as well as increased interest expense (related to higher interest rates and interest expense for accelerated amortization of debt fees and discounts as part of the $250 million voluntary prepayment on the U.S. dollar-denominated term loan), a higher effective tax rate and the impact of exchange losses driven by the fluctuations in foreign currency. Capital Allocation Today, Organon’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 for each issued and outstanding share of the company's common stock. The dividend is payable on June 15, 2023, to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 15, 2023. As of March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents were $459 million, and debt was $8.7 billion. Total debt as of March 31, 2023 reflects a discretionary first quarter prepayment of $250 million on the company’s U.S. dollar-denominated term loan. Full Year Guidance Organon does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company cannot predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, the occurrence of matters creating GAAP tax impacts, and acquisition-related expenses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to Organon’s results computed in accordance with GAAP. Organon's financial guidance does not assume an estimate for future in-process research and development for business development transactions not yet executed.
