Dendreon (DNDN) reported earnings Monday 30 July 2012



  • Dendreon (DNDN) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in November 2014. In February 2015, Valeant Pharmaceuticals (VRX) received approval to purchase all Dendreon assets.

    Late Monday, Dendreon posted a quarterly net loss of 65 cents a share, compared with a loss of 79 cents a share for the same period in 2011. Excluding various items, Dendreon said it would have reported a loss of 61 cents a share. According to a poll by Thomson Reuters, analysts expected the biotech group to post a loss of 59 cents a share.

    Further rattling investors were signs that sales of Dendreon’s lone marketed product, Provenge, had stalled. While second-quarter net sales rose 66% to $80 million from the same period in 2011, they were down 2.4% sequentially from the previous quarter.
    In conjunction with the disappointing sales report, Dendreon said it plans to undergo a restructuring over the next 12 months, laying off about 600 of its 1,475 employees. The company hopes to save around $150 million annually from the move.
