MorphoSys AG (FSE: MOR; NASDAQ: MOR) today reported preliminary Monjuvi® U.S. Net Product Sales and Gross Margin for the third quarter of 2023 and provided an update to its financial guidance for 2023. Preliminary Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) U.S. Net Product Sales are US$ 23.4 million (€ 21.5 million) for the third quarter of 2023 and US$ 67.8 million (€ 62.6 million) for the first nine months of 2023, a 5% and 6% increase from the same periods in 2022, respectively (US$ 22.2 million in Q3 2022 and US$ 64.1 million in the first nine months of 2022). Preliminary Gross Margin for Monjuvi U.S. Net Product Sales for Q3 2023 is 65%, due to the recognition of one-time write-offs for raw material used in the production of Monjuvi.

All other aspects of the guidance for 2023 remain unchanged. “Sales of Monjuvi continue to be on track for it’s approved indication in relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and give us confidence to narrow our guidance target,” said Jean-Paul Kress, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of MorphoSys. “We remain in a solid financial position and continue to be highly judicious with our expenses even as we progress our phase 3 trials, including preparations for the pivotal MANIFEST-2 trial that will read out later this year.”
