Organon reports results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021 and announces inaugural dividend
| · | Second quarter 2021 revenue of $1,595 million |
| · | Net income from continuing operations of $431 million, or $1.70 per diluted share; Adjusted net income from continuing operations of $437 million, or $1.72 per diluted share |

Jersey City, N.J., August 12, 2021 – Organon (NYSE: OGN) (the “company”), today announced its results for the second quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2021 and affirmed its full year 2021 financial guidance.
Organon also announced that its 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 September 13, 2021 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 23, 2021.
“Since well before Organon’s June 2nd spin-off from Merck, thousands of employees have been hard at work standing up Organon, committed to a shared vision to advance the health of women. Already, we have demonstrated our commitment to identifying potential opportunities to help address some of the most important unmet needs in women’s health, with an acquisition focused on treating post-partum hemorrhage as well as a licensing agreement to develop an investigational agent being evaluated to delay pre-term labor,” said Kevin Ali, CEO of Organon. “At the same time, we are focused on driving our business, with all three of our franchises delivering on their objectives.
Accordingly, today we affirmed our full year 2021 guidance. Looking beyond 2021, we remain confident in our ability to organically grow revenue in the low to mid-single digit range, as LOE risk will largely be behind us and Women’s Health and Biosimilars are positioned to deliver double digit growth.”

(1) Franchise revenue does not sum to total revenue due to manufacturing sales to the company’s former parent company and other third parties and pre-spin allocated revenue hedge activities
Total net revenue was $1,595 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 5% as-reported and decrease of 1% excluding the impacts of foreign currency (ex-FX), compared with the second quarter of 2020.
Women’s Health grew 19% as-reported and 16% ex-FX in the second quarter 2021 compared with the second quarter of 2020, driven by growth in NEXPLANON (etonogestrel implant), which grew 39% ex-FX.. NEXPLANON, a single-rod subdermal contraceptive implant, is a physician-administered product. While in-person patient visits to healthcare professionals demonstrated recovery in the second quarter of 2021 relative to the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, which occurred during the same period in 2020, the company expects that ongoing negative impacts will persist through 2021. Growth in fertility also contributed to the performance in Women’s Health in the quarter; FOLLISTIM, AQ Cartridge (follitropin beta injection), grew 40% ex-FX and was positively impacted by a combination of COVID-19 recovery and increased demand. These growth drivers more than offset a 19% ex-FX decline in NuvaRing (etonogestrel/ethinyl estradiol vaginal ring) related to generic competition.

Biosimilars revenue grew 43% as-reported and 35% ex-FX in the second quarter 2021 compared with second quarter 2020, driven by continued demand growth in the US for RENFLEXIS (infliximab-abda), since its launch in 2017, and continued uptake of ONTRUZANT (trastuzumab-dttb) in the US since its July 2020 launch, which was partially offset by a decrease in the EU, reflecting increasing competitive pressures.
Established Brands represents a broad portfolio of well-known medicines, which generally are beyond market exclusivity, including leading brands in cardiovascular, respiratory, dermatology and non-opioid pain management, for which generic competition varies by market. Revenue for Established Brands was down 4% as-reported and down 10% ex-FX in the second quarter of 2021, primarily driven by the loss of exclusivity of ZETIA (ezetimibe) in Japan. Excluding the impact of LOEs, Established Brands revenue was down 2% ex-FX. During the quarter, retail expansion in China grew double digits and partially offset impacts from decreases in the hospital channel due to Volume-Based Procurement.

Gross margin was 63.4% as-reported and 65.5% on an adjusted basis in the second quarter of 2021 compared with 69.9% as-reported and 71.2% on an adjusted basis in the second quarter of 2020. The year-over-year decrease reflects an increase in stand-up costs, including certain costs related to manufacturing agreements between the company and its former parent company, which have lower gross margin percentages compared to third party product sales.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 39.3% in the second quarter of 2021 compared with 50.9% in the second quarter of 2020, which reflects costs incurred to establish Organon as a standalone entity.
Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2021 was $431 million, or $1.70 per diluted share, compared with $586 million, or $2.31 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP Adjusted net income was $437 million, or $1.72 per diluted share, compared with $640 million, or $2.52 per diluted share, in 2020.
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 September 13, 2021 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 23, 2021.
As of June 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents were $730 million and debt was $9,348 million, resulting in net debt of $8,618 million.

Full year guidance – all guidance provided on a Non-GAAP basis
Organon does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, 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.
The company is affirming the pre-spin financial guidance it provided at the Investor Day it co-hosted with Merck on May 3, 2021. The financial guidance is presented on a non-GAAP basis and is proforma as if Organon was a standalone company for the entire year.

Non-GAAP financial measures
Non-GAAP results, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS, are presented only as a supplement to the company’s financial statements based on GAAP. Non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance understanding of the company’s financial performance, but none of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP, and non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached to this release. The company uses non-GAAP 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. The company also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures. The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the appendix of this press release for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. The company’s full-year 2021 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 and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations.
