Schrödinger Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Delivers Third Quarter Total Revenue of $42.6 Million; Maintains Full-Year 2023 Revenue Guidance

Continued Progress for SGR-1505, Healthy Volunteer Data Expected in Fourth Quarter of 2023

Phase 1 Study Initiated for SGR-2921; Discloses PRMT5-MTA Discovery Program

BMS Returns Two Programs From Collaboration


New York, November 1, 2023 – Schrödinger, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDGR), whose physics-based computational platform is transforming the way therapeutics and materials are discovered, today announced financial results for the quarter ended on September 30, 2023.

“Schrodinger had an excellent third quarter marked by strong revenue growth and significant pipeline progress. More of our software customers are increasing the scale of their use of our technology, and we remain very confident about the outlook for the full year,” said Ramy Farid, Ph.D., chief executive officer of Schrödinger. “We initiated our Phase 1 clinical study of SGR-2921 and our Phase 1 study of SGR-1505 in healthy volunteers is nearing completion. We look forward to sharing more details about our proprietary programs later this year.”

Today, Schrodinger announced that the rights to two related oncology discovery programs would revert to the company, after Bristol Myers Squibb elected not to proceed with further development of these programs for strategic reasons.

2023 Financial Outlook
•Schrödinger today updated its financial guidance for 2023. The company’s financial expectations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 are as follows:
•Software revenue growth is expected to be in the range of 15 percent to 18 percent.
•Drug discovery revenue is expected to range from $50 million to $70 million.
•Software gross margin is expected to be similar to software gross margin for the full year 2022.
•Operating expense growth in 2023 is expected to be significantly lower than operating expense growth in 2022.
•Cash used for operating activities is now expected to be higher in 2023 than 2022, based on the mix of revenue, the timing and size of milestones and expectations for new business development activity this year.
Recent Company Highlights
Wholly-Owned Pipeline
•Schrödinger continues to advance SGR-1505, its investigational MALT1 inhibitor. The Phase 1 dose-escalation study in healthy volunteers is nearing completion, and the company expects to report data from the study in the fourth quarter of 2023. Enrollment in the Phase 1 dose-escalation study in relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancy patients is ongoing in the U.S. and EU. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently granted Orphan Drug Designation to SGR-1505 for potential treatment in mantle cell lymphoma.

•Today Schrödinger announced the initiation of the Phase 1 clinical study of SGR-2921, an investigational CDC7 inhibitor, in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. The study is designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and determine the recommended dose. SGR-2921 has exhibited anti-tumor activity as a monotherapy and in combination with standard of care agents in multiple preclinical tumor models.

•Schrödinger continues to advance SGR-3515, an inhibitor of Wee1 and Myt1. Concurrent loss of function of Wee1 and Myt1 confers selective vulnerability in cancer cells, a mechanism referred to as synthetic lethality. IND-enabling activities are ongoing to support an IND submission for SGR-3515 in the first half of 2024.

•Today Schrödinger announced that one of its previously undisclosed discovery programs is PRMT5-MTA (protein arginine methyltransferase 5/methylthioadenosine). PRMT5 has been shown to be a synthetic lethal target for MTAP-deleted cancers with potential roles in the treatment of both hematologic and solid tumors. The company expects to provide more details about its PRMT5-MTA program and other early-stage programs at its Pipeline Day on December 14, 2023.

Schrödinger Collaborators
•In October, Schrödinger collaborator Morphic Holdings presented additional Phase 2a data from the EMERALD-1 trial of MORF-057, an oral ɑ4ꞵ7 inhibitor in development for ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease at United European Gastroenterology (UEG) week.

•In September, Structure Therapeutics presented positive results from the Phase Ib multiple ascending dose study of GSBR-1290, an oral GLP-1R, in healthy overweight or obese individuals.

•In September, Schrödinger and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation renewed their agreement to invest in the discovery and development of novel non-hormonal contraceptive agents for global health.




Platform
•During the third quarter, Schrödinger and Gates Ventures LLC extended their agreement to develop and apply simulation methods to improve battery performance for a second three-year period. The new research agreement includes total consideration of $6M and runs through August 2026.

•Schrödinger announced quarterly software release 2023-3, which incorporated a number of important updates, including a major enhancement to the company’s Induced Fit Docking (IFD) technology for optimization of certain key ADMET properties, the first full release of technology that can be used to optimize antibody affinity as a function of pH, and technology to more accurately predict small molecule pKa values, a key intrinsic molecular property.

•In August, Schrödinger scientists published the results of a novel automated workflow, FEP Protocol Builder (FEP-PB), which uses active-learning to automate development of accurate FEP+ protocols, increasing the number of targets amenable to the technology.

Third Quarter 2023 Webcast and Conference Call Information

To participate in the live webcast, please register for the event here. It is recommended that participants register at least 15 minutes in advance of the event.

Non-GAAP Information
Included in this press release is certain financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The company presents non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, which exclude gains and losses on equity investments, changes in fair value, and income tax benefits and expenses. Adjusting net income to exclude the impact of these items results in a financial presentation for the company without the impact of our equity investments and tax benefits and expenses. Management believes non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share are useful measures for investors, taken in conjunction with the company’s GAAP financial statements because they provide greater period-over-period comparability with respect to the company’s operating performance, by excluding non-cash mark-to-market and other valuation adjustments for the company’s equity investments, non-recurring cash distributions from the company’s equity investments and the tax impact of these distributions that are not reflective of the ongoing operating performance of the business. However, the non-GAAP measures should be considered only in addition to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Other companies in Schrödinger’s industry may calculate non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share to GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP net income (loss) per share, respectively, please refer to the tables at the end of this press release.
