Royalty Pharma (RPRX) is set to highlight its accomplishments and provide a business update at the 43rd Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, scheduled for January 14, 2025. The company's founder and Chief Executive Officer, Pablo Legorreta, will discuss the company's strong performance in 2024 and its outlook for the future.



In 2024, Royalty Pharma delivered robust financial performance, with preliminary unaudited fourth quarter results indicating Portfolio Receipts of approximately $2,800 million, reaching the upper end of guidance. This represents anticipated underlying growth of approximately 13% year-over-year in Royalty Receipts, reflecting the strong performance of the company's diversified royalty portfolio. Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) for full year 2024 is expected to be approximately $2,560 million to $2,570 million, and Portfolio Cash Flow (non-GAAP) is anticipated to be approximately $2,450 million to $2,455 million. Net cash provided by operating activities is projected to be approximately $2,760 million to $2,770 million for full year 2024.



Royalty Pharma's capital deployment in 2024 totaled approximately $2.8 billion, including a record year for synthetic royalty deals at $925 million. The company's development-stage pipeline, comprising over 40 projects, has the potential to generate peak royalties exceeding $1.2 billion annually. This is based on projected un-risk adjusted peak sales of over $21 billion for potential therapies in the late-stage pipeline.

In 2025, Royalty Pharma will benefit from several new product launches, including Voranigo, Yorvipath, Niktimvo, Rytelo, and Cobenfy. The company expects Adjusted EBITDA of $2,560-2,570 million and Portfolio Cash Flow of $2,450-2,455 million for full year 2024.



Royalty Pharma's portfolio diversification strategy has contributed significantly to its financial performance. The company has added multiple high-potential therapeutics to its portfolio, with notable launches in 2025 including Voranigo for brain cancer, Cobenfy for schizophrenia, and Rytelo for myelodysplastic syndromes. This diversification minimizes portfolio risk while maximizing exposure to breakthrough treatments, as seen in the robust late-stage pipeline featuring transformative therapies like aficamten for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and pelacarsen for cardiovascular disease. The upcoming Phase 3 results for pelacarsen in 2025 could further impact future revenue streams, demonstrating the potential of the company's strategic focus on varied therapeutic areas.

In conclusion, Royalty Pharma's accomplishments and business update at the 43rd Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference highlight the company's strong financial performance, strategic capital deployment, and robust pipeline. With a diversified royalty portfolio and a focus on varied therapeutic areas, Royalty Pharma is well-positioned to deliver attractive, compounding growth over the foreseeable future.
