CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 28, 2022--Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALNY), the leading RNAi therapeutics company, today reported its consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022 and reviewed
recent business highlights.
"We're pleased with our second quarter results which delivered strong growth in both patient demand and product revenues. A notable achievement in the quarter was the recent approval of AMVUTTRA, which becomes our fifth RNAi therapeutic
approved in under four years, and marks our continued progress in building a multi-product TTR franchise. We're excited to have initiated the U.S. launch and look forward to potential additional global approvals and subsequent rollout," said
Yvonne Greenstreet, MBChB, Chief Executive Officer of Alnylam. "We are also eager for a number of important milestones over the rest of the year, including topline results from the APOLLO-B Phase 3 study of patisiran in ATTR amyloidosis with
cardiomyopathy patients, which we've announced today are expected within the next three weeks. Additionally, we plan to continue to advance our robust pipeline, with clinical data expected across several prevalent disease programs in NASH,
HBV, gout, and early-onset Alzheimer's disease with ALN-APP, our first investigational RNAi therapeutic targeting a CNS disorder. We believe the first half of 2022 has been one of steady progress and commercial execution, and we look forward
to the many important milestones through the end of the year, moving us further along our path toward achieving our Alnylam P5x25 goals."

interest expenses of approximately $9 million related to additional draws on our term loan facility.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $2.11 billion as of June 30, 2022, compared to $2.44 billion as of December 31, 2021, with the decrease primarily due to our operating loss in the second quarter of 2022.

2022 Financial Guidance1
Full year 2022 financial guidance is reiterated and consists of the following:
Combined net product revenues for ONPATTRO, GIVLAARI, OXLUMO and AMVUTTRA $870 million - $930 million
Net revenues from collaborations and royalties $175 million - $225 million
GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses $1,620 million - $1,700 million
Non-GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses 2 $1,390 million - $1,450 million
1 Guidance utilizes April 18, 2022 FX rates of: 1 EUR = 1.08 USD; 1 GBP = 1.31 USD; 1 CHF = 1.06 USD; 1 CAD = 0.79 USD; 1 USD = 126 JPY. 2 Primarily excludes $230-$250 million of stock-based compensation expense from estimated GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including expenses adjusted to exclude certain non-cash expenses and non-recurring gains outside the ordinary course of the Company's business and revenue growth excluding the impact
of changes in foreign exchange rates. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
The items included in GAAP presentations but excluded for purposes of determining non-GAAP financial measures for the periods presented in this press release are stock-based compensation expenses and realized and unrealized (gains) losses
on marketable equity securities. The Company has excluded the impact of stock-based compensation expense, which may fluctuate from period to period based on factors including the variability associated with performance-based grants for stock
options and restricted stock units and changes in the Company's stock price, which impacts the fair value of these awards. The Company has excluded the impact of the realized and unrealized (gains) losses on marketable equity securities
because the Company does not believe these adjustments accurately reflect the performance of the Company's ongoing operations for the period in which such gains or losses are reported, as their sole purpose is to adjust amounts on the balance
Percentage changes in revenue growth at CER are presented excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates for investors to understand the underlying business performance. The current period's foreign currency revenue
values are converted into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates from the prior period.
The Company believes the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in
conjunction with non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of the Company's ongoing operating performance and are better able to compare the Company's performance between periods. In addition,
these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators the Company uses as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources and planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided later in this press release.
