Revenue from Marketed Products
 
Total revenue from marketed products increased to $249.9 million in 2006 from $204.3 million in 2005. The 22% increase reflects higher sales of Maxipime, Azactam and Prialt.
 
In June 2006, the FDA approved the re-introduction of Tysabri for the treatment of relapsing forms of MS. Approval for the marketing of Tysabri in the European Union was also received in June 2006 and, in October 2006, approval was received for the

Financial Review

marketing of Tysabri in Canada. The distribution of Tysabri in both the United States and the European Union commenced in July 2006. Global in-market net sales of Tysabri, which we market in collaboration with Biogen Idec, were $38.1 million in 2006, consisting of $28.2 million in the United States and $9.9 million in the European Union.
 
Tysabri was developed and is now being marketed in collaboration with Biogen Idec. In general, subject to certain limitations imposed by the parties, we share with Biogen Idec product revenues and most development and commercialisation costs. Biogen Idec is responsible for manufacturing the product. In the United States, we purchase Tysabri from Biogen Idec and are responsible for distribution. In the EU market, Biogen Idec is responsible for distribution.
 
Our collaboration with Biogen Idec for Tysabri is a jointly-controlled operation in accordance with International Accounting Standards (IAS) 31, “Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures,” (IAS 31). A jointly-controlled operation is an operation of a joint venture that involves the use of the assets and other resources of the venturers rather than establishing a corporation, partnership or other entity, or a financial structure that is separate from the venturers themselves. Each venturer uses its own property, plant and equipment and carries its own inventories. It also incurs its own expenses and liabilities and raises its own finance, which represent its own obligations.
 
In accordance with IAS 31, in any period where an operating loss has been incurred by the collaboration on sales of Tysabri, we do not recognise any Tysabri product revenue. In any period where an operating profit has been generated by the collaboration on sales of Tysabri, we recognise as revenue our share of the collaboration profit from the sale of Tysabri, plus our directly-incurred collaboration expenses on these sales. Accordingly, we have not recognised any product revenue from Tysabri in either 2006 or 2005, since Tysabri incurred an operating loss in both years. Our actual operating profit or loss on Tysabri differs from our share of the collaboration operating profit or loss, because certain Tysabri-related expenses are not shared through the collaboration and certain unique risks are retained by each party.
 
Maxipime revenue increased 14% to $159.9 million in 2006 from $140.3 million in 2005. The increase primarily reflects growth in the demand for the product. The basic patent on Maxipime expired in March 2007. Two other US patents covering Maxipime formulations will expire in February 2008. Bristol-Myers recently received correspondence from lawyers for Apotex stating that Apotex intends to enter the US market with Apotex’s cefepime hydrochloride upon receiving approval from the FDA. Bristol-Myers has requested additional information from Apotex to determine if Apotex’s form of cefepime hydrochloride, if approved by the FDA, infringes Bristol-Myers patents. If Apotex or others are able to introduce generic competitors to Maxipime our revenues from, and gross margin for, Maxipime will be materially and adversely affected.
 
Azactam revenue increased 35% to $77.9 million in 2006 from $57.7 million in 2005 primarily due to increased demand. Azactam lost its patent exclusivity in October 2005 and its sales are expected to be adversely impacted by generic competition. However, to date, no generic Azactam product has been approved.
 
Prialt revenue increased to $12.1 million in 2006 from $6.3 million in 2005, which was primarily due to increased demand. Prialt was launched in the US market in the first quarter of 2005. In March 2006, we completed the sale of the European rights to Prialt to Eisai, while retaining the product rights in the United States. We had not made any commercial sales of Prialt in Europe prior to this divestment.

(A) Revenue from marketed products
 
Total revenue from marketed products increased to $215.3 million in 2005 from $174.5 million in 2004. The increase of 23% primarily reflects higher sales of Maxipime and Azactam, and initial sales of Tysabri and Prialt. Azactam lost its patent exclusivity in October 2005, and the basic patent on Maxipime expires in March 2007. Two US patents covering Maxipime formulations may provide patent protection until February 2008. The expiration of these patents is expected to result in generic competition for these products, which is expected to adversely impact future revenues. However, to date, no generic Azactam product has been approved.
 
Maxipime revenue increased from $117.5 million in 2004 to $140.3 million in 2005. The 19% increase reflects growth in demand, a price increase of 8% taken at the end of 2004, and improved supply conditions. We experienced third party supply shortages and disruptions with Maxipime during 2005. This led to a significant decline in inventories held by our wholesale customers and hospitals and, consequently, affected our ability to meet demand. The supply situation improved beginning in the third quarter of 2005.
 
As reported by IMS Health Inc., Azactam prescription demand for 2005 increased by 6% over 2004, while the corresponding revenues increased from $50.6 million in 2004 to $57.7 million in 2005, or 14%. The difference between prescription and revenue growth rates is due to changing wholesaler inventory levels and price increases taken during the period.
 
The FDA granted accelerated approval of Tysabri in late November 2004 for the treatment of patients in the United States with all forms of relapsing remitting MS. Revenue from Tysabri amounted to $11.0 million in 2005 and $6.4 million in 2004. The commercialization and clinical dosing of Tysabri was voluntarily suspended in February 2005. On March 7-8, 2006, the PCNS Advisory Committee reviewed and voted unanimously to recommend that Tysabri be reintroduced as a treatment for relapsing forms of MS. In June 2006, the FDA approved the re-introduction of Tysabri for the treatment of relapsing forms of MS. Approval for the marketing of Tysabri in the European Union was also received in June 2006, and in October 2006, approval was received for the

Prialt, a new treatment for severe chronic pain, was approved by the FDA in the United States in December 2004 and approved in Europe in February 2005. We began selling Prialt in the US market in early 2005 and revenue from sales of Prialt was $6.3 million in 2005 (2004: $Nil). On March 20, 2006, we completed the sale of the European rights to Prialt to Eisai, while retaining the product rights in the United States.

be reintroduced as a treatment for relapsing forms of MS. On March 21, 2006, we and Biogen Idec were informed by the FDA that the agency would extend its regulatory review of Tysabri by up to 90 days in order to complete a full review of the Tysabri risk management plan. Under the revised timeline, we anticipate an action from the FDA about the reintroduction of Tysabri as a treatment for relapsing forms of MS on or before June 28, 2006.

Revenue from marketed products

 

Revenue from marketed products was $52.1 million in the third quarter of 2005, compared to $45.5 million recorded in the same period of 2004 due to increased sales of Maxipime and Azactam, and the sales of Prialt which was launched in 2005.

 

As previously reported, we have experienced third party supply shortages and disruptions with Maxipime during 2005. This has led to a significant decline in inventories that are held by our wholesale customers and hospitals and, consequently, on our ability to meet demand. As a result of the inventory shortages, Maxipime prescription volume demand for July and August of 2005 decreased by 5%, compared to the same period in 2004. Revenue for the third quarter of 2005 increased by 2% from $33.0 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $33.8 million. The supply situation improved during the third quarter and we expect to be able to meet demand and wholesaler inventory requirements during the fourth quarter of 2005. We will continue to actively manage the supply of Maxipime which is manufactured by a third party.

 

Azactam prescription volume demand for July and August of 2005 increased by 4%, compared to the same period of 2004, while revenue for the quarter increased from $12.5 million to $17.0 million, or 36%. Changing wholesaler inventory levels primarily explains the difference between Azactam prescription growth rate and revenue growth in the third quarter of 2005. Azactam lost patent exclusivity in October 2005 and we anticipate generic competition will have an impact on sales of Azactam from the end of the year.

 

Prialt, a new treatment for severe chronic pain, was approved in the U.S. in December 2004. Revenue from Prialt for the third quarter of 2005 was $1.5 million, down from $1.8 million reported in the second quarter of 2005, due to increased demand offset by reduced wholesaler inventories.

Revenue from marketed products

 

Revenue from marketed products was $55.2 million in the second quarter of 2005, compared to $35.6 million recorded in the same period of 2004. The increase primarily reflects increased sales of Maxipime and Azactam.

 

As previously reported, we experienced third party supply shortages with Maxipime during the early part of 2005. As a result of inventory shortages, Maxipime prescription volume demand for April and May of 2005 decreased by 3%, compared to the same period in 2004. However, prescription volume demand has increased by 24% for the first five months ended May 31, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. Revenue for the second quarter of 2005 increased from $26.5 million in the second quarter of 2004 to $39.9 million, or 51%, which resulted from a combination of supply shortages in the second quarter of 2004, increased demand for the first five months ended May 31, 2005 and re-stocking of wholesaler inventory following the supply shortages in the first quarter of 2005. We will continue to closely monitor the supply level for Maxipime.

 

Azactam prescription volume demand for April and May of 2005 increased by 14%, compared to the same period of 2004, while revenue for the quarter increased from $9.1 million to $14.8 million, or 63%. Changing wholesaler inventory levels primarily explains the difference between Azactam prescription growth rate and revenue growth in the second quarter of 2005. Azactam loses patent exclusivity in October 2005 and we anticipate generic competition will have an impact on sales of Azactam from the end of the year.

 

Prialt, a new treatment for severe chronic pain, was approved in the U.S. in December 2004 and launched in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2005. Revenue from Prialt for the second quarter of 2005 was $1.8 million, compared to $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2005.
