We had a strong performance driven by resilient cash flows from our core GSK royalties portfolio and robust revenue growth across our commercial products marketed by IST, a leader in critical care medicine and infectious disease,” said Pavel Raifeld, Chief Executive Officer of Innoviva. “We also remain laser focused on utilizing our strong financials to drive shareholder value by continuing to exercise cost discipline, investing prudently in our strategic healthcare assets, and completing our share buyback plan.” Matt Ronsheim, Ph.D., President of IST, noted: “Our IST platform is a powerful engine for growth anchored by a robust portfolio of differentiated life saving therapies. We are pleased with our first quarter performance, led by the strong launch of our novel therapeutic XACDURO®. Our core products GIAPREZA® and XERAVA® continue to grow, propelled by increasing awareness of our strong data underscoring the value of our products. We are also excited about our lead pipeline product, zoliflodacin, a potential first in class well tolerated oral drug for uncomplicated gonorrhea, whose Phase 3 data was highlighted in an oral presentation by our non-profit partner GARDP at ESCMID Global 2024, the largest global infectious disease congress. We remain on track to submit our New Drug Application for zoliflodacin in early 2025.” Financial Highlights Royalty revenue: First quarter 2024 gross royalty revenue from Glaxo Group Limited (“GSK”) was $61.9 million, compared to $60.3 million for the first quarter of 2023.

Zoliflodacin: a potential first-in-class, single dose, oral antibiotic in development for the treatment of patients with uncomplicated gonorrhea Positive Phase 3 zoliflodacin clinical trial results highlighted in an oral presentation given by the Company’s non-profit partner, The Global Antibiotic Research & Development Partnership (GARDP), at the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Disease Global Congress (ESCMID Global 2024). The data showed that in the micro-intent-to-treat population (n=744), zoliflodacin achieved a microbiological cure rate of 90.9%, a 5.3% difference compared to ceftriaxone and azithromycin, the current global standard of care, which achieved a 96.2% cure rate (95% CI: 1.4%, 8.7%). Microbiological cure rates at extragenital sites were comparable between treatment arms (secondary endpoints). Zoliflodacin was generally well tolerated and emergent adverse events were comparable between treatment arms (46.2% vs 46.4%). No deaths or other serious adverse events were reported. The Company expects a New Drug Application to be submitted to the U.S. FDA in early 2025.
