The steep plunge in operating income for Q2 2024 was primarily driven by a **dramatic increase in AIPR&D expenses**—notably, a **$4.4 billion expense related to the acquisition of Alpine Immune Sciences**, which surged the AIPR&D expenses from **$110.5 million in Q2 2023** to **$4,449.1 million in Q2 2024**. Additionally, **higher operating costs and increased expenditures in areas such as R&D and SG&A** contributed to the downturn, and while revenues grew modestly by **6%**, that increase was insufficient to offset these large expense shocks.  **[0000875320-24-000198_vrtx-20240630.htm:34]** **[0000875320-24-000193_ex-991_q22024.htm:0]** **[VRTX_3395774_7]** 

What caused operating income to plunge in Q2 2024?

The sharp decline in net income for Q2 2024 was primarily driven by a **one-time non-deductible AIPR&D expense of $4.4 billion** incurred during the acquisition of Alpine Immune Sciences, a massive jump from the **$110.5 million** in similar expenses in Q2 2023. This expense was compounded by **approximately $200 million in transaction-related compensation expenses**, increased **R&D and SG&A operating expenses** related to clinical and commercial development, and a **negative effective tax rate of -6.0%** which further amplified the loss.  **[0000875320-24-000198_vrtx-20240630.htm:34]** **[0000875320-24-000193_ex-991_q22024.htm:0]** **[0000875320-24-000178_vrtx-20240627.htm:1]** 

Why did net income turn significantly negative in Q2 2024?

The drastic decline in EPS in Q2 2024 was driven primarily by a **huge one-time acquired in-process research and development (AIPR&D) expense of $4.4 billion**—a dramatic increase from just **$110.5 million** in Q2 2023—that, along with an **operating loss of $(3.51) billion** (in contrast to Q2 2023’s operating income of $1.03 billion) and a **shift in the effective tax rate from 21.2% to (6.0%)**, severely impacted net income and EPS.  **[0000875320-24-000198_vrtx-20240630.htm:34]** **[0000875320-24-000193_ex-991_q22024.htm:0]** **[0000875320-24-000198_vrtx-20240630.htm:2]** **[VRTX_3395774_7]** 

What drove the drastic decline in EPS in Q2 2024?

Full-year net income turned negative in **FY 2024** primarily because of a dramatic increase in **AIPR&D expenses** – rising to **$4,628.4 million** from **$527.1 million** largely due to the acquisition of Alpine Immune Sciences – coupled with significantly higher operating costs (an **86% increase** in total expenses to **$11,253.0 million**, including increases in **R&D** and **SG&A** expenses). Additionally, a steep rise in the **GAAP effective tax rate** from **17.4%** to **315.5%**, which was driven by the impact of non-deductible AIPR&D expenses, contributed to turning an operating profit into a loss, resulting in net income falling from a profit of **$3,619.6 million** in FY 2023 to a net loss of **$(535.6) million** in FY 2024.  **[0000875320-25-000053_vrtx-20241231.htm:131]** **[0000875320-25-000029_ex-991_q42024.htm:1]** **[0000875320-25-000053_vrtx-20241231.htm:168]**

The sharp decline in cash and cash equivalents in Q2 2024 was primarily driven by several key factors. **Vertex Pharmaceuticals** spent approximately **$5 billion** in cash to acquire Alpine Immune Sciences, which alone significantly reduced liquidity. Additionally, cash flows used in operating activities worsened to **$(2,447.0) million** (compared to a positive cash flow in the previous period) due to costs associated with the acquisition. Furthermore, **$2,600.1 million** was used in investing activities for net purchases of available-for-sale debt securities, and over **$300 million** was deployed for share repurchases, which further depleted cash reserves.  **[0000875320-24-000198_vrtx-20240630.htm:40]** **[0000875320-24-000193_ex-991_q22024.htm:0]** **[VRTX_3395774_7]** 

Why did cash and cash equivalents drop so sharply in Q2 2024?

The surge in Total assets in Q1 2024 was primarily driven by a significant increase in **long-term marketable securities**, which rose from **$2,497.8 million** to **$4,381.4 million** as a result of net purchases amounting to **$2.1 billion**. Additionally, increases in **deferred tax assets** (from **$1,812.1 million** to **$1,963.0 million**) and **operating lease assets** (from **$293.6 million** to **$312.9 million**) further contributed to the growth, despite a decrease in cash and cash equivalents from **$10,369.1 million** to **$9,158.0 million**.  **[0000875320-24-000139_vrtx-20240331.htm:3]** **[0000875320-24-000139_vrtx-20240331.htm:34]** 

What drove the surge in Total assets in Q1 2024?

The dramatic drop in **long-term finance lease liabilities** in Q3 2024 is primarily due to the **reclassification of the corporate headquarters leases** from finance leases to operating leases. This change followed the **amendments to the lease agreements in August 2024**, which extended the lease termination dates to **June 2044**, meaning the leases no longer met the criteria for finance lease classification and were instead recorded under **long-term operating lease liabilities**.  **[0000875320-24-000223_vrtx-20240930.htm:23]** **[0000875320-24-000223_vrtx-20240930.htm:13]** **[0000875320-24-000223_vrtx-20240930.htm:24]** 

Why did Long-term finance lease liabilities drop so dramatically in Q3 2024?

The spike in Total liabilities in Q3 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in **long-term operating lease liabilities**, which jumped from **$348.6 million** at the end of 2023 to **$1,588.9 million** as of Q3 2024. Additionally, **accrued expenses** rose from **$2,655.3 million** to **$3,219.7 million**, and **other long-term liabilities** saw a modest increase from **$877.7 million** to **$933.3 million**. These changes were likely influenced by new lease agreements, the reclassification of lease obligations, and heightened operational activities related to new product launches and potential acquisitions.  **[0000875320-24-000223_vrtx-20240930.htm:3]** 

What factors contributed to the spike in Total liabilities in Q3 2024?
