February 9, 2018 By Sarah Faulkner

Innoviva logoShares in Innoviva (NSDQ:INVA) rose today after the company topped expectations on Wall Street with its fourth quarter and full-year financial results.

The Brisbane, Calif.-based company posted profits of $58.4 million, or 55¢ per share, on sales of $69.5 million for the 3 months ended Dec. 31, for bottom-line growth of 129% on sales growth of 59% compared with the same period last year.

Adjusted to exclude 1-time items, earnings per share were 50¢, ahead of consensus on The Street, where analysts were looking for sales of $67.4 million.

For the full-year, Innoviva posted profits of $134.1 million, up 125% from 2016, on sales of $217.2 million, up 63% compared to the year before.

“We had a successful fourth quarter of 2017 that included strong commercial performance of Relvar/Breo Ellipta, Anoro Ellipta, the initiation of sales by GSK in the U.S. market of Trelegy Ellipta, the completion of our 2017 $150 million capital return plan with the successful execution of our ASR program, and the continued growth in our income from operations and adjusted EBITDA, which reached $183.6 million and $207.5 million in 2017, respectively,” Eric d’Esparbes, Innoviva’s interim principal executive officer, said in prepared remarks.

“We remain confident in the trajectory of our respiratory portfolio and our financial performance.”
