Immunex Corporation
When we first evaluated Im-
munex we were concerned about
slowly declining revenues and sales.
Our concern was the capability for
Immunex to be an effective marketer.
For the six months ended June 1997,
revenues fell 1% to $82.5 million as
compared to 1996 for the same period
and that is due to non-recurring con-
tract and license payments that were
received in the first half of 1996. Net
loss rose to $17.4 million compared to
$12.5 million for the same period in
1996. Sales of Novantrone and
Leukeine have increased for 1997 sec-
ond half, up 38% and 7% for the
same period a year earlier, but the
higher loss reflects higher selling,
marketing, promotional and interest
expenses. Net sales of Novantrone
totaled $36.7 million, $43.0 million
and $39.1 million in 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively. The change in
Novantrone sales is due primarily to
distributor purchasing patterns which
affected sales levels in 1995 and 1996.
Net sales of Leukine totaled $43.1
million, $41.4 million and $45.6 mil-
lion in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respec-
tively. Sales of Novantrone and
Leukine have improved as they begin
to gain market share and acceptance.
When we featured Immunex
in our prostate cancer issue back in
April 1997, stock price was sitting at
$27.88. Currently it closed at $39.75.
With its current product platform, Im-
munex is performing as expected.
But if Enbrel does receive FDA ap-
proval, given the tremendous market
for a good rheumatoid arthritis drug
and the fact that it is ahead of major-
ity of its competitors in terms of being
at the late stage of clinical trials, Im-
munex could do extremely well.
