Operating Business Performance
PROPRIETARY DEVELOPMENT
MorphoSys’ development activities in this segment are currently focused on the following clinical candidates:
· | Tafasitamab – an antibody for the treatment of malignant B cell diseases and most advanced proprietary product in the Proprietary Development segment. On July 31, 2020, Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) in combination with lenalidomide received FDA approval for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) not otherwise specified, including DLBCL arising from low grade lymphoma, and who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). |
· | Felzartamab (MOR202) – the antibody for which MorphoSys signed a regional license agreement with I-Mab Biopharma (I-Mab) in November 2017 for development in multiple myeloma in Greater China, and whose therapeutic potential in autoimmune diseases is currently being evaluated by MorphoSys. |
· | Otilimab – an antibody in which GlaxoSmithKline [GSK] is currently conducting clinical trials for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. This program was originally a MorphoSys proprietary program and was fully out-licensed to GSK in 2013. |
In addition to the programs listed above, several proprietary programs are in earlier-stage research and development, including MOR210/TJ210, a preclinical antibody that was out-licensed to I-Mab in November 2018 for China and certain other territories in Asia, for which the FDA cleared the IND application on September 17, 2020, for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory advanced solid tumors.
Tafasitamab (MOR208) is a humanized monoclonal antibody directed against the CD19 antigen. CD19 is selectively expressed on the surface of B cells, which belong to a group of white blood cells. CD19 enhances B cell receptor signaling, which is an important factor in B cell survival and growth, making CD19 a potential target in the treatment of B cell malignancies.
OPERATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
On January 13, 2020, MorphoSys and Incyte announced the signing of a collaboration and license agreement for the further global development and commercialization of MorphoSys’ proprietary anti-CD19 antibody tafasitamab. Under this agreement, MorphoSys and Incyte will co-develop tafasitamab broadly in r/r DLBCL, first-line DLBCL and other indications beyond DLBCL, such as relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (r/r FL), marginal zone lymphoma (r/r MZL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (r/r CLL). Incyte will be responsible for initiating a phase 1b combination study of its PI3K delta inhibitor parsaclisib with tafasitamab in relapsed/refractory (r/r) malignant B cell disease as well as a pivotal phase 3 trial in r/r FL. MorphoSys will continue to be responsible for its ongoing clinical studies with tafasitamab in non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), CLL, r/r DLBCL and first-line DLBCL. MorphoSys and Incyte will share responsibility for initiating further global clinical trials. Incyte intends to pursue development in additional territories, including Japan and China.

On July 31, 2020, the FDA approved Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) not otherwise specified, including DLBCL arising from low grade lymphoma, and who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). The FDA decision represents the first approval of a second-line treatment for adult patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL in the U.S. Monjuvi® was approved under accelerated approval by the FDA, one month ahead of the PDUFA date. Continued approval may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial(s). MorphoSys and Incyte are co-commercializing Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) in the U.S.
The joint MorphoSys and Incyte team anticipated and were prepared for an early approval. Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) was shipped to specialty distributors and the first customer order served in the first week post approval, and the first patient was dosed in the second week post approval. The sales and medical teams of MorphoSys and Incyte use a combination of virtual forms of communication and in-person interactions and are able to adapt to challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S.
CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT
The initial focus of the clinical development of tafasitamab is DLBCL. Both the L-MIND and B-MIND studies target patients suffering from r/r DLBCL who are ineligible for high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) and ASCT. For this group of patients, the treatment options prior to tafasitamab approval in the U.S. were limited and not sufficiently effective. The firstMIND study is being conducted in patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL and was designed to pave the way for frontMIND, a pivotal phase 3 trial in first-line patients that will start in 2021.
On May 14, 2020, MorphoSys and Incyte announced updates on the ongoing phase 2 L-MIND study evaluating tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of patients with r/r DLBCL. The data (November 30, 2019 data cut-off date) confirmed the previously reported results of the primary analysis. In this long-term analysis of the L-MIND data, 80 study patients treated with tafasitamab plus lenalidomide were included in the efficacy analysis. After a minimum two-year follow-up, outcomes from the L-MIND study were consistent with the primary analysis and confirmed the duration of response (DoR) and overall survival (OS) after treatment with tafasitamab plus lenalidomide, followed by tafasitamab monotherapy in patients with r/r DLBCL who are ineligible for ASCT. At the data cut-off date, an assessment by an independent review committee (IRC) showed an objective response rate (ORR) of 58.8% (47 out of 80 patients) and a complete response rate (CR) of 41.3% (33 out of 80 patients). The median duration of response (mDOR) was 34.6 months, the median overall survival (mOS) was 31.6 months, and the median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 16.2 months. The safety profile was also consistent with that observed in earlier reported data from the combination of tafasitamab plus lenalidomide. The complete results were presented at the 25th EHA Annual Congress, which was held virtually on June 11-14, 2020.
The efficacy of the combination of tafasitamab and lenalidomide in the L-MIND trial was compared with the efficacy results of the lenalidomide monotherapy, based on real-world patient data (RE-MIND, retrospective observational study). For this purpose, RE-MIND collected real-world efficacy data from 490 patients with

r/r DLBCL who met the main inclusion/exclusion criteria of L-MIND and who received lenalidomide monotherapy in the U.S. or EU. For the comparison with patients from L-MIND, qualification criteria for matching patients from both studies were pre-specified. As a result, 76 eligible RE-MIND patients were identified and matched one to one to 76 of the 80 L-MIND patients based on important baseline characteristics. The objective response rates (ORR) were determined for both RE-MIND and L-MIND based on this subset of 76 patients.
At the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), which was held as a virtual conference on May 29-31, 2020, the results of the comparison of L-MIND to RE-MIND were presented.
The primary endpoint of RE-MIND was met and showed a statistically significant superior best objective response rate (ORR) of the tafasitamab/lenalidomide combination compared to lenalidomide monotherapy. The ORR was 67.1% for the tafasitamab/lenalidomide combination compared to 34.2% for lenalidomide monotherapy. Superiority was consistently observed across all secondary endpoints, including complete response (CR) rate (tafasitamab/lenalidomide combination 39.5%; versus lenalidomide monotherapy at 11.8%), as well as in pre-specified statistical sensitivity analyses. In addition, there was a significant difference observed for median overall survival (OS), which had not yet been reached in the tafasitamab/lenalidomide combination as compared to 9.3 months in lenalidomide monotherapy (hazard ratio 0.47).
Based on the data from the primary analysis of both studies and the results of the tafasitamab monotherapy study in NHL, MorphoSys submitted a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the FDA for tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of r/r DLBCL in late December 2019. On July 31, 2020, FDA approved Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) not otherwise specified, including DLBCL arising from low grade lymphoma, and who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). The FDA approval was mainly based on data from the MorphoSys-sponsored phase 2 L-MIND study (primary analysis cut-off date November 30, 2018). The clinical data in the FDA prescribing information showed an overall response rate (ORR) of 55% (primary endpoint), and a complete response (CR) rate of 37%. The median duration of response (mDOR) was 21.7 months (key secondary endpoint).
On May 20, 2020, MorphoSys and Incyte announced the validation of the European Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for tafasitamab in patients with r/r DLBCL who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation. The validation of the Marketing Authorization Application by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) confirms that the formal review process can begin. As in the U.S., MorphoSys’ application for approval is based on data from L-MIND evaluating tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of patients suffering from r/r DLBCL. The application is supported by RE-MIND as described above. If approved, Incyte will hold the marketing authorization giving it exclusive commercialization rights for tafasitamab in Europe.
The phase 2/3 trial B-MIND, initiated in September 2016, is evaluating the safety and efficacy of the administration of tafasitamab in combination with the chemotherapeutic agent bendamustine in comparison to the administration of the cancer drug rituximab plus bendamustine in patients with r/r DLBCL who are ineligible for high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. The study has been in phase 3 since mid-2017. MorphoSys expects the study’s topline results to become available in 2022.

In addition to the aforementioned clinical development in r/r DLBCL, MorphoSys initiated a phase 1b clinical trial of tafasitamab as a first-line therapy in DLBCL (firstMIND) at the end of 2019. The study finished enrollment ahead of schedule and evaluates the safety (primary endpoint) and the preliminary efficacy of tafasitamab or tafasitamab plus lenalidomide in addition to R-CHOP (the current standard therapy) in patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL. This study was designed to pave the way for frontMIND, a pivotal phase 3 trial of tafasitamab as a first-line therapy in DLBCL. This study is expected to start in 2021 and enroll up to 880 patients.
In addition to these combination studies in DLBCL, MorphoSys has been evaluating tafasitamab in a phase 2 combination study in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small cell B cell lymphoma (SLL) since December 2016. The study COSMOS is investigating the safety of tafasitamab in combination with the cancer drugs idelalisib (cohort A) or venetoclax (cohort B). The study enrolled patients for whom previous therapy with a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor was either not tolerated or no longer effective. Data from the primary analysis of both cohorts were presented at the ASH conference in Orlando in December 2019. Cohort A included eleven patients receiving tafasitamab plus idelalisib. Patients were in the study for a median of 7.4 months. The overall response rate was 91%, and one patient achieved complete remission. Eight patients were tested for minimal residual disease (MRD), two of these eight patients achieved MRD negativity in blood, and one of three patients also achieved MRD negativity in bone marrow. A total of 13 patients were enrolled in cohort B and treated with tafasitamab plus venetoclax. The median time in the study was 15.6 months. In the intent-to-treat population, the best overall response was 76.9%; 46.2% of patients achieved complete remission. Seven patients were tested for the presence of minimal residual disease. Six of these seven patients achieved MRD negativity in blood, and two of four patients achieved MRD negativity in bone marrow. The COSMOS study showed that combinations of tafasitamab with idelalisib or venetoclax were generally well-tolerated.
Incyte is responsible for initiating a combination study of its PI3K delta inhibitor parsaclisib with tafasitamab in relapsed/refractory malignant B cell disease as well as a pivotal phase 3 study in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (r/r FL). This global randomized trial in r/r FL, which will start in 2021 and enroll approximately 500 patients, will evaluate the safety and efficacy of tafasitamab in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide with the safety and efficacy of rituximab in combination with lenalidomide.
Felzartamab (MOR202) is directed against CD38, an antigen expressed on the surface of plasma cells.
In November 2017, MorphoSys and I-Mab signed a regional license agreement for the development and commercialization of felzartamab (MOR202) in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macao, granting I-Mab exclusive rights in those regions.
On April 27, 2020, MorphoSys and I-Mab announced the dosing of the first patient in a phase 3 clinical study in mainland China to evaluate felzartamab (MOR202/TJ202) in combination with lenalidomide plus dexamethasone in patients with r/r MM. This clinical trial (NCT03952091) is a randomized, open-label, controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of felzartamab (MOR202/TJ202), lenalidomide and dexamethasone versus the combination of lenalidomide and dexamethasone in patients with r/r MM who received at least one prior line of treatment. This multi-center study had already started at sites in Taiwan in April 2019 and has now officially started in mainland China as part of a coordinated effort to accelerate the study. In addition, I-Mab is

10 | Group Interim Statement |
investigating felzartamab (MOR202/TJ202) in a phase 2 trial which started in March 2019 as a third-line treatment for r/r MM. Both studies are considered relevant for approval in the region.
In October 2019, MorphoSys initiated a phase 1/2 trial in anti-PLA2R-positive membranous nephropathy, an autoimmune disease affecting the kidneys. The proof-of-concept study, called M-PLACE, is an open-label, multi-center study and primarily evaluates the safety and tolerability of felzartamab (MOR202). Secondary endpoints are the effect of felzartamab (MOR202) on serum antibodies against PLA2R and the evaluation of the immunogenicity and pharmacokinetics of felzartamab (MOR202). An exploratory goal is to determine clinical efficacy.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, MorphoSys had temporarily paused the patient screening and enrollment for the M-PLACE study of felzartamab (MOR202). MorphoSys has since then resumed patient recruitment, and the first patient was dosed in the U.S. at the end of July 2020.
MOR210, a highly differentiated monoclonal antibody that is directed against complement factor C5a receptor 1 (C5aR1) was contributed by MorphoSys into an exclusive strategic collaboration and licensing agreement with I-Mab in November 2018. Under the terms of the agreement, I-Mab receives exclusive rights to develop and commercialize MOR210/TJ210 in China, Hongkong, Macao, Taiwan and South Korea, while MorphoSys retains rights in other parts of the world. With MorphoSys’ support, I-Mab will also fund and conduct all global development activities of MOR210/TJ210, including clinical trials in China and the U.S., towards clinical proof-of-concept (PoC) in oncology. In September 2020, the FDA cleared the IND application for MOR210/TJ210 for the treatment of patients suffering from relapsed or refractory advanced solid tumors. The phase 1 clinical trial, designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MOR210/TJ210, is expected to begin in Q4 2020.
MOR106, a human monoclonal antibody against IL-17, became part of an exclusive development and commercialization agreement with Novartis in July 2018. In October 2019, the three parties to this agreement – Galapagos, MorphoSys and Novartis – announced that the clinical development of MOR106 in atopic dermatitis (AtD) was terminated for all studies based on the results of interim analysis for futility. Novartis terminated the development and commercialization agreement within the notice period. All ongoing activities related to the terminated studies will be completed jointly by the three parties.
Otilimab (MOR103/GSK3196165), a fully human antibody directed against GM-CSF, was fully out-licensed to GSK in 2013. In mid-2019, GSK announced the start of a phase 3 program in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) called ContRAst. It comprises three pivotal studies and a long-term extension study and evaluates the antibody in patients with moderate to severe RA. GSK has also started a clinical trial (OSCAR) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of otilimab in patients with severe pulmonary COVID-19-associated disease. According to information on www.clinicaltrials.gov, up to 800 patients are expected to be enrolled in the OSCAR study and data are expected in the first half of 2021.
Other programs: In addition to the programs listed above, MorphoSys is pursuing several proprietary programs in earlier phases of research and development.

On September 30, 2020, the number of therapeutic programs in the Proprietary Development segment totaled 11, four of which were out-licensed (December 31, 2019: 12 programs, four of which were out-licensed). Three of these programs are in clinical development, one is in preclinical development, and six are in the discovery stage. The clinical development of MOR106 is currently stopped. Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) is already available on the market.
PARTNERED DISCOVERY
The Partnered Discovery segment comprises the activities and programs in which MorphoSys is contracted by its partners to use its proprietary technology to discover new antibodies. Partners are then responsible for the products’ clinical development and subsequent commercialization with MorphoSys participating in the later development and commercialization success according to predefined milestone payments and royalties.
In July 2020, MorphoSys’ licensee Janssen announced the U.S. FDA approval of Tremfya® (guselkumab) as a treatment for adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis. On October 12, 2020, Janssen presented interim data from the GALAXI 1 study at the United European Gastroenterology Week virtual congress which showed Tremfya® (guselkumab) results at week 12 in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease (CD). Tremfya® induced significant improvements compared to placebo across key clinical and endoscopic outcome measures, with a safety profile consistent with approved indications. On October 19, 2020, MorphoSys announced that Janssen had announced it received a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommending the expanded use of Tremfya® (guselkumab) for the treatment of adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in the European Union (EU).
According to information on www.clinicaltrials.gov, Novartis started on September 9, 2020, a clinical phase 2 study for NOV-14 (CSJ117) for 625 patients with severe uncontrolled asthma and on September 23, 2020, for NOV-8 (CMK389) for 66 patients with chronic pulmonary sarcoidosis.
During the first nine months of 2020, the number of therapeutic programs in the Partnered Discovery segment slightly increased to 105 (December 31, 2019: 104). As of September 30, 2020, 24 of these programs were in clinical development, 27 were in preclinical development, and 54 were in the discovery stage. Our Tremfya® Partnered Discovery program is already available on the market.
CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS
On September 30, 2020, MorphoSys announced that Jens Holstein, Chief Financial Officer (CFO), had decided to step down as CFO and member of the company’s Management Board. A search is ongoing to identify the future Chief Financial Officer.
MorphoSys continues to operate in accordance with its business continuity plan to minimize disruptions to operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and to implement the measures necessary to protect employees.

In the interim statements, MorphoSys reports the key financial figures that are important for the Group’s internal control: revenues, operating expenses, EBIT (defined as earnings before finance income, finance expenses, income from impairment reversals/impairment losses on financial assets and income taxes), segment results and the liquidity position. The presentation of the key financial figures may be expanded accordingly to include material business transactions that affected other line items of the statement of profit or loss or the balance sheet in a given quarter.
Revenues
Group revenues in the first nine months of 2020 increased to € 291.7 million (9M 2019: € 60.7 million). This rise resulted primarily from the collaboration and license agreement with Incyte. Group revenues included revenues of US$ 5.0 million (€ 4.4 million) from the first-time recognition of Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) product sales in the U.S.
Success-based payments, including royalties, comprised 12%, or € 34.7 million (9M 2019: 88% and € 53.4 million), of total revenues, with royalties increasing by 32% compared to the previous year. From a geographical standpoint, MorphoSys generated 98%, or € 285.0 million, of its commercial revenues in North America and 2%, or € 6.7 million, with partners primarily located in Europe and Asia. In the comparable period of the previous year, these figures were 39% and 61%, respectively. More than 97% of the Group’s revenues were generated with partners Incyte, Janssen and I-Mab Biopharma (9M 2019: 89% Janssen, GlaxoSmithKline und I-Mab Biopharma).
In accordance with IFRS 15, revenues from sales of the MorphoSys’ product Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) are recognized at the transaction price when the customer obtains control of the product. The customer obtains control upon receipt of Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix), and therefore revenue is recognized at a point in time. The transaction price under IFRS 15 represents the consideration, including variable consideration, MorphoSys expects to receive in exchange for Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix). Variable consideration items are only considered to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
The most relevant elements of variable consideration for MorphoSys are listed below.
· | Rebates and discounts granted to government agencies, group purchasing organizations, specialty distributors and specialty pharmacies are provisioned and recorded as a deduction from revenue at the time the related revenues are recorded. They are calculated on the basis of actual rebates and discounts provided, specific regulatory requirements, the specific terms in the individual agreements, product pricing and/or the estimated mix of distribution channels. |
· | Cash discounts offered to customers are to encourage prompt payment and are provisioned and recorded as revenue deductions at the time the related sales are recorded. |
Provisions for revenue deductions are adjusted to actual amounts as rebates and discounts as well as cash discounts are realized. The provisions represent estimates of the related obligations, requiring the use of management judgment when estimating the effect of these sales deductions.

Operating Expenses
COST OF SALES
Cost of sales in the first nine months of 2020 amounted to € -0.2 million (9M 2019: € 10.9 million) and included expenses related to services provided in the transfer of projects to customers. Furthermore, the impairments to a net realizable value of zero recognized on the antibody material resulting from fermentation runs (tafasitamab) have been reversed due to the market approval of tafasitamab. This material can now be used for commercialization purposes and therefore qualifies as inventory. This resulted in income in the amount of € 11.0 million, of which € 9.9 million have to be attributed to fiscal year 2019. This reversal of impairment was included in cost of sales and overcompensated expenses incurred in the first nine months of fiscal year 2020. Therefore, the cost of sales line item in total presented an income.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
In the first nine months of 2020, research and development expenses amounted to € 86.6 million (9M 2019: € 75.3 million). Expenses in this area were largely driven by expenses for external laboratory services in the amount of € 31.4 million (9M 2019: € 38.0 million), personnel expenses in the amount of € 23.6 million (9M 2019: € 21.5 million) as well as expenses for intangible assets of € 17.1 million (9M 2019: € 3.1 million). Expenses for intangible assets were mainly influenced by impairment charges of € 13.7 million related to an impairment of the in-process-R&D program MOR107 as well as a license. Furthermore, the reversal of impairments of inventories on the pre-manufactured antibody material (tafasitamab) which is designated to further clinical trials had a relieving effect of € 4.1 million. The reversal of impairments for previously devalued stock amounted to a total of € 3.3 million.
SELLING EXPENSES
Selling expenses in the first nine months of 2020 amounted to € 75.0 million (9M 2019: € 9.3 million). This line item included mainly personnel expenses in the amount of € 36.4 million (9M 2019: € 4.0 million) and expenses for external services of € 35.6 million (9M 2019: € 4.5 million). It also comprised expenses for all commercial services rendered by Incyte in connection with the joint U.S. activities.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
In comparison to the same period of the previous year, general and administrative expenses increased to € 37.2 million (9M 2019: € 22.4 million). This line item comprised mainly personnel expenses amounting to € 23.4 million (9M 2019: € 16.4 million) and expenses for external services of € 9.6 million (9M 2019: € 3.2 million).
Other Income / Finance Income / Finance Expenses
Other income amounted to € 11.6 million in the first nine months of 2020 (9M 2019: € 1.1 million) and resulted primarily from currency gains from operating activities of € 11.2 million (9M 2019: € 0.7 million).
Finance income amounted to € 60.5 million (9M 2019: € 3.4 million) and resulted from effects from the financial assets and financial liabilities from collaborations of € 55.3 million (9M 2019: € 0), comprising currency translation effects, effects from changes in fair value and the recognition of deviations between planning assumptions and

actual figures. In addition, gains from investments of liquid funds and foreign currency gains from financing activities amounting to € 4.8 million (9M 2019: € 1.6 million) are included. Furthermore, income from financial derivatives of € 0.4 million (9M 2019: € 1.8 million) was recognized.
Finance expense increased to € 101.9 million (9M 2019; € 0.9 million) mainly driven by the effects from the financial assets and financial liabilities from collaborations of € 67.2 million (9M 2019: € 0), namely from deviations between planning assumptions and actual figures, the application of the effective interest rate method and effects relating to foreign currency translation. Moreover, expenses from investments of liquid funds and foreign currency losses from financing activities amounting to € 26.7 million (9M 2019: € 0.2 million) are included. Furthermore, losses from financial derivatives of € 7.1 million (9M 2019: less than € 0.1 million) were recognized.
Income Taxes
The Group recognized a total tax benefit of € 55.2 million in the first nine months of 2020, which was primarily impacted by the tax assessment of the collaboration and license agreement with Incyte. This included current tax expense of € 88.9 million as well as deferred tax expense from temporary differences of € 6.6 million, which were more than offset by deferred tax income from temporary differences of € 150.7 million.

Liquidity
On September 30, 2020, the Group’s liquidity amounted to € 987.2 million, compared to € 357.4 million on December 31, 2019.
Liquidity is presented in the balance sheet items “cash and cash equivalents”, “financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” and current and non-current “other financial assets at amortized cost”.
The increase in liquidity resulted primarily from payments received upon signing the collaboration and license agreement with Incyte for the further development and commercialization of tafasitamab. This increase was offset by the use of cash for operating activities in the first nine months of 2020.
Collaboration and License Agreement with Incyte
On January 13, 2020, MorphoSys AG and Incyte Corporation announced that both companies had signed a collaboration and license agreement for the global further development and commercialization of MorphoSys’ proprietary anti-CD19 antibody tafasitamab. The agreement became effective on March 3, 2020, following the receipt of antitrust clearance. Under the terms of the agreement, MorphoSys received an upfront payment of US$ 750.0 million (€ 691.7 million). In addition, Incyte invested US$ 150.0 million (€ 130.9 million) in new ADS of MorphoSys. MorphoSys increased its common stock by issuing 907,441 new ordinary shares from Authorized Capital 2017-I, excluding the preemptive rights of existing shareholders, to facilitate Incyte’s purchase of 3,629,764 ADSs. Each ADS represents 1⁄4 of one MorphoSys ordinary share. The new ordinary shares underlying the ADSs represented 2.84% of the registered common stock of MorphoSys prior to the capital increase. Incyte purchased the
MorphoSys – III/2020 |
Table of Contents
18 | Group Interim Statement |
3,629,764 new ADSs at a price of US$ 41.32 per ADS, including a premium of 20% on the volume-weighted average ADS price 30 days prior to the signing of the collaboration and license agreement. Incyte has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to sell or otherwise transfer any of the new ADSs for an 18-month period. The new ADSs represent 2.76% of the registered common stock of MorphoSys following the capital increase.
Depending on the achievement of certain developmental, regulatory, and commercial milestones, MorphoSys is eligible to receive milestone payments amounting to up to US$ 1.1 billion. MorphoSys will also receive tiered royalties in a mid-teen to mid-twenties percentage of net sales of tafasitamab outside the U.S. In the U.S., MorphoSys and Incyte will co-commercialize tafasitamab, with MorphoSys being responsible for the commercial relationship with the end customer, which also comprises the deliveries of the drug and the collection of the related cash inflows. The revenues from product sales of tafasitamab will therefore be recorded by MorphoSys, as it is the principal of the transaction. Incyte and MorphoSys are jointly responsible for the commercialization activities in the U.S. and will equally share any profits and losses (50/50 basis). Outside the U.S., Incyte will receive exclusive commercialization rights, determine the commercialization strategy and be responsible for the commercial relationship with the end customer, including the deliveries of the drug and the collection of the related cash inflows. Therefore, Incyte will recognize all revenues generated from sales of tafasitamab outside the U.S. and will furthermore pay royalties to MorphoSys on these sales.
MorphoSys received a total of US$ 900.0 million (€ 822.6 million) from Incyte upon signing the agreement. A total of US$ 268.9 million (€ 236.1 million) was recognized as revenues according to IFRS 15, as this is the amount recognized as consideration for the marketing license for tafasitamab outside the U.S. As part of Incyte’s participation in the equity of MorphoSys AG through a capital increase, the equivalent of US$1.0 million (€ 0.9 million; equivalent to the nominal value of € 1 per ordinary share) was recognized in common stock and US$ 90.7 million (€ 79.7 million) in additional paid-in capital. The remaining amount of US$ 539.4 million (€ 497.5 million) cannot be attributed to Incyte as a customer. At the time of its initial recognition, a current financial asset in the amount of US$ 48.9 million (€ 45.1 million) and a non-current financial liability in the amount of US$ 588.3 million (€ 542.6 million) were recognized and recorded in the balance sheet items “Financial Assets from Collaborations” and “Financial Liabilities from Collaborations”. The financial asset represents MorphoSys’s current reimbursement claim against Incyte from the expected future losses (as Incyte has agreed to compensate MorphoSys for 50% of said losses) measured at fair value. The non-current financial liability, measured at fair value, represents Incyte’s prepaid entitlement to future profit sharing on sales of tafasitamab in the U.S. (as MorphoSys will share 50% of these profits with Incyte). Incyte has already acquired this right with the payments made in March 2020, therefore a liability had to be recognized at that time. Basis for the initial valuation at fair value is the corporate planning and its shared profits and losses thereof in connection with the commercialization activities of MorphoSys and Incyte in the United States for the years ahead.
The financial asset is subsequently recognized at fair value through profit or loss and the financial liability at amortized cost using the effective interest method in accordance with IFRS 9. Resulting effective interest is recognized in the finance result. Cash flows from the profits and losses shared equally between the two parties are generally recognized directly against the financial asset or financial liability. Differences between the planned and actual cash flows from the financial asset or financial liability are recorded in the finance result. Effects resulting from changes in planning estimates regarding the expected net cash flows from financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the finance result as well. For the subsequent valuation of the financial liabilities the initial interest rate is still applied whereas for the financial assets the current interest yield curve is used. Foreign
MorphoSys – II/2020 |

Group Interim Statement | 19 |
currency translation effects from the financial asset or financial liability are also recognized in the finance result.
As of September 30, 2020, an amount of US$ 655.9 million (€ 560.3 million) was recorded as a financial liability and US$ 57.3 million (€ 49.0 million) as a financial asset as a result of the collaboration with Incyte.
MorphoSys and Incyte will also share the development costs for the worldwide and U.S.-specific clinical trials at a ratio of 55% (Incyte) to 45% (MorphoSys). This 45% share of development costs is included in research and development costs. If MorphoSys provides services in excess of this 45% share, MorphoSys will be entitled to a compensation claim against Incyte, which will qualify as revenue in accordance with IFRS 15. Associated expenses for the provision of the service are recognized as cost of sales. Conversely, MorphoSys has to bear additional research and development expenses if Incyte performs more than 55% of the total clinical trial services. In addition, Incyte will assume 100% of future development costs for clinical trials in countries outside the United States. Incyte has the option to obtain development services from MorphoSys for this purpose. If this option is exercised, the related income will be recognized as revenue.
On October 1, 2020, MorphoSys established a new Restricted Stock Unit Plan for selected employees of MorphoSys US Inc.
On October 13, 2020, MorphoSys placed successfully unsubordinated, unsecured convertible bonds due 2025 in an aggregate principal amount of € 325 million. The bonds will be convertible into new and/or existing no-par value ordinary bearer shares of MorphoSys.
On October 19, 2020, MorphoSys announced that its licensee Janssen Research & Development, LLC. (Janssen) had announced it received a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommending the expanded use of Tremfya® (guselkumab) for the treatment of adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in the European Union (EU).
On November 11, 2020, MorphoSys and Cherry Biolabs, a spin-off from the University Hospital Würzburg, announced that they entered into a licensing agreement granting MorphoSys the rights to apply Cherry Biolabs’ innovative, multispecific Hemibody technology to six exclusive targets. This Hemibody technology, in combination with MorphoSys’ antibody know-how and technologies, offers the potential to generate novel T-cell engaging medicines with higher precision and better safety profiles for the treatment of cancer patients. Financial details were not disclosed.
On November 11, 2020, MorphoSys announced a clinical collaboration with Xencor and Incyte to develop tafasitamab in combination with plamotamab, Xencor’s clinical stage CD20xCD3 targeting bispecific antibody. This collaboration will investigate the combination of tafasitamab with plamotamab in r/r DLBCL, first-line DLBCL and r/r FL. Xencor will sponsor the study with MorphoSys and Incyte providing access to tafasitamab.

In November 2020, a further antibody from the long-term collaboration between MorphoSys and Novartis entered clinical development. This triggered a milestone payment to MorphoSys.
MorphoSys AG has decided to sell its shares of Lanthio Pharma B.V. to Lanthio Participatie B.V., a newly established entity founded by the current Managing Director of Lanthio Pharma B.V. The technical implementation of this transaction is still pending and is expected to be completed by the end of November 2020.
No other reportable events occurred.
For the financial year 2020, MorphoSys increased its financial guidance. Management now expects Group revenues in the range of € 317 to € 327 million (previously: € 280 to € 290 million) and an EBIT in the range of € 10 to € 20 million (previously: € -15 to € +5 million). R&D expenses are expected to remain unchanged in the range of € 130 to € 140 million. This updated guidance reflects higher revenues from partnerships and collaborations and Tremfya® royalties are expected to be at the upper end of guidance. In addition, it now also includes revenues from product sales of Monjuvi® following its approval and subsequent launch in the U.S. This updated guidance is based on constant currency exchange rates and does not include any effects from potential in-licensing or co-development deals for new development candidates.
The operational and financial guidance might potentially be impacted by the ongoing global COVID-19 crisis on MorphoSys’ business operations including but not limited to the Company’s supply chain, clinical trial conduct, as well as timelines for regulatory and commercial execution. While MorphoSys is maintaining its previously communicated guidance on its clinical trials, these could potentially be affected in terms of patient enrollment and data collection timelines, among other factors.
