Mohit BansalManaging Director and Senior Analyst

Great. Thank you so much for joining us for this afternoon session. My name is Mohit Bansal. I am one of the biotech and pharma analysts here at Wells Fargo, and I am joined by Team BioMarin with us today. We have Greg Friberg with us, the head of R&D at BioMarin, and then Cristin Hubbard. She is the head of commercial at BioMarin. Thank you very much for joining us today.

Greg FribergChief Research and Development Officer

Thanks for inviting us. Awesome.

Mohit BansalManaging Director and Senior Analyst

Maybe let's just start with big picture. There has been a lot of development at BioMarin since you both joined. What makes you excited about all the accomplishments in last one year or so, and then tell us about the investment story at this point?

Cristin HubbardChief Commercial Officer

I'll start. Okay. We are really excited at BioMarin. As you've mentioned, we've had a lot of updates over the last year, and I'd say the last couple of years. I know you'll get into some of the R&D updates, but some of the things that we're really excited about is that when we look at our established business units, so we have two of them, one which we used to call enzyme therapies, but since the acquisition of Amicus, we're now calling it metabolic conditions. We have a lot of exciting activity therein. This was historically a durable franchise- Right If you think about it.

Cristin HubbardChief Commercial Officer

We had five products that we consider in that, four of which were first in disease, and these are products that we've seen 9% CAGR over the last three years, going up to $2.1 billion at full year last year.

Cristin HubbardChief Commercial Officer

This was things that are not coming from new launches. We have NAGLAZYME, launched in 2005, hit $500 million last year. We have VIMIZIM, launched in 2014, $800 million last year. We have a really durable franchise there. We had the addition of Amicus. We closed this past April.

Cristin HubbardChief Commercial Officer

Right. Really exciting growth story that I know that we will likely get into, but we were able to talk a little bit more about the opportunity in our Q2 call.

Cristin HubbardChief Commercial Officer

This is where we are talking about the potential. These are two commercial fast-growing products that we have real potential to expand on, growing to possibly $1.4 billion for GALAFOLD and Fambril, and $1.2 billion at peak, in the mid 2030s, late 2030s for POMBILITI and OPFOLDA in Pompe. Really exciting growth areas for us, not to mention what we have going in skeletal conditions, which I will touch on quickly. We did just recently announce, just to start it off, a settlement with Ascendis Right which I think helps to clear some of the competitive overhang.

Cristin HubbardChief Commercial Officer

which I'm sure we'll get into. This is also an exciting area for growth for us in terms of VOXZOGO. We had 14% revenue growth at the quarter, 20% patient growth Q2 year-over-year, but also growing sequentially, and just a really exciting time where we're seeing great growth coming out of the younger population for VOXZOGO, but also importantly, we're seeing global expansion of this brand. Very exciting times. Then we've added some things to our pipeline that I know you'll get into, Greg.

Cristin HubbardChief Commercial Officer

Okay. I'll hand it over to you.

Greg FribergChief Research and Development Officer

Yeah, no. Hot off the press is, of course, this morning we were able to show the world the totality of our hypochondroplasia data.

Greg FribergChief Research and Development Officer

Really excited about that, again, the opportunity for really a first-in-disease therapy for VOXZOGO as an extension. The results exceeded our expectations, and again, not only on the efficacy side, but the safety came out quite nice, and again, that currently has been submitted to the FDA for review. Similarly, we're looking across our portfolio and really trying to restock our pipeline.

Greg FribergChief Research and Development Officer

That involves both internal as well as external innovation sources. We most recently closed a deal with Alesta Therapeutics for an HPP oral therapy.

Greg FribergChief Research and Development Officer

Happy to get into if we Sure have additional questions.

Greg FribergChief Research and Development Officer

Then, of course, looking forward to our next generation CNP product in BMN 333, which we will turn over a card looking for superiority versus VOXZOGO in achondroplasia next year. I will just wrap it up by saying along with the Amicus acquisition, we also acquired the U.S. rights to a molecule called DMX-200 that we call BMN 820. This is for FSGS, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Again, that is an ongoing phase III study that will read out in the 2028 timeframe. Our pipeline is looking different than it did even a year ago when I was sitting here, and we are looking forward to continuing to build it, both with internal as well as external innovation sources.
