Earnings Reviewed

For the three months ended April 30, 2017, H&R Block’s revenue totaled $2.33 billion compared to revenue of $2.30 billion in Q4 FY16. The Company’s revenue numbers surpassed analysts’ consensus of $2.32 billion.

For FY17, H&R Block’s revenues were almost flat on a y-o-y basis to $3.03 billion as improvement in the Company’s assisted net average charge was partially offset by a decline in return volume. DIY tax preparation revenue declined as H&R Block More ZeroSM promotion resulted in a lower net average charge which was partially offset by increased return volume.

During Q4 FY17, H&R Block’s operating expenses came in at $818.81 million compared to $853.13 million in Q4 FY16. For FY17, the Company’s operating expenses decreased 3.5% to $1.64 billion, driven by cost reduction measures which led to lower compensation and benefits and marketing costs, along with lower bad debt expense due to more favorable collections on prior year’s receivables.

H&R Block’s net income came in at $783.35 million, or $3.75 per diluted share, compared to net income of $700.66 million, or $$3.13 per diluted share, in Q4 FY16.

For FY17, H&R Block’s net income from continuing operations increased 10% to $421 million, while diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased $0.43, or 28%, to $1.96.

Corporate News Blog – Google’s Comparison Shopping Service under Scrutiny; Faces $2.7 Billion Fine from the European Antitrust Commission

Research Desk Line-up: Fang Holdings Post Earnings Coverage

LONDON, UK / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2017 / Pro-Trader Daily takes a look at the latest corporate events and news making the headlines for Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) (NASDAQ: GOOG), following which we have published a free report that can be viewed by signing up at http://protraderdaily.com/optin/?symbol=GOOGL. The European Commission announced on June 27, 2017, that it has fined Google, an Alphabet, Inc.’s (NASDAQ: GOOGL) (NASDAQ: GOOG) subsidiary, about $2.7 billion for breaching EU antitrust rules. According to the ruling, Google abused its market dominance as a search engine, and the gateway to the internet, by offering an illegal advantage to another Google product, under its comparison shopping service. Currently, 90% of Google’s revenues are generated from adverts that it shows consumers in response to a search query.

The Case

In 2004, Google entered the separate market of comparison shopping in Europe, where it launched a product, initially known as Froogle. The product was later renamed as “Google Product Search” in 2008, and eventually in 2013, the product was called “Google Shopping”. Google Shopping allows consumers to compare products and prices online and find the best deal from different online retailers.

From 2008, owing to the number of established players in the market, Google began to implement in European markets a fundamental change in strategy to steer its comparison shopping service. The strategy relied primarily on Google’s dominance in general internet search, rather than competition on the merits of comparing shopping markets. According to the EU antitrust regulation, Google has systematically given prominent placement to its own comparison shopping service. Also, Google demoted rival comparison shopping services in its search results, on the basis of Google’s generic search algorithms. As a consequence, Google’s comparison shopping service is much more visible to consumers in Google’s search results, while the rival comparison shopping services are much less accessible.

The Probe

In November of 2009, Foundem, a UK price-comparison website, filed a complaint in Brussels over Google’s search practices. Later in November 2010, EU regulators began a formal investigation into Google’s search practices. Google then submitted proposals in 2013 to address concerns it favored under its own search services, struck restrictive deals with advertisers, and copied content from rival websites without permission.

Later, in February 2014, after further concessions by Google, Brussels announced a settlement. However, in April 2015, the EU announced formal charge against Google for the first time, accusing the search giant of skewing results to favor its shopping service. This ruling from the European Commission signifies a major outlook if Google, the Internet-gateway, harnessed its dominance in the markets, spanning from online ads to mobile-phone software as a medium to promote its own services, at the expense of its competitors.

A New Chapter

This ruling marks a new era into how tech-giants promote their services, and offer consumers their products. This fine could just be the first in a series of EU antitrust penalties for Google, which is fighting on at least two other fronts – its Android mobile-phone software and the AdSense online advertising service.

Market Dominance by itself is not illegal under antitrust rules, but Companies with a market leading position have the liability not to abuse their position by restricting competition, be it in the market where they are dominant or in separate markets.

Google now has nine days to end the abuse or face penalty payments of up to 5% of the average daily worldwide turnover of Alphabet.

Last Close Stock Review

At the closing bell, on Wednesday, June 28, 2017, Alphabet’s stock climbed 1.36%, ending the trading session at $961.01. A total volume of 2.74 million shares have exchanged hands, which was higher than the 3-month average volume of 1.65 million shares. The Company’s stock price soared 13.08% in the last three months, 18.65% in the past six months, and 39.02% in the previous twelve months. Moreover, the stock surged 21.27% since the start of the year. The stock is trading at a PE ratio of 30.98 and currently has a market cap of $659.58 billion.

Dividend Declared

On May 25, 2017, Raytheon announced that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.7975 per outstanding share of common stock. The cash dividend is payable on August 03, 2017, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 05, 2017.

Raytheon’s indicated dividend represents a yield of 1.96%, which is higher compared to the average dividend yield of 1.62% for the industrial goods sector. The Company has increased its dividend consecutively for the past 12 years.

Dividend Insights

Raytheon has a dividend payout ratio of 42.6%, which reflects that the Company distributes approximately $0.43 for every $1.00 earned. The dividend payout ratio reflects how much money a Company is returning to shareholders versus how much money it is keeping on hand to reinvest in growth, to pay off debt, or to add to its cash reserves.

According to analysts’ estimates, Raytheon is expected to report earnings of $8.80 in the coming year, which again comfortably covers the Company’s annualized dividend of $3.19.

As on April 02, 2017 Raytheon had cash and cash items worth $2.19 billion and its current assets totaled $10.52 billion, while current liabilities were $6.31 billion. The strong financial position would allow the Company to absorb any fluctuations in earnings and pay its dividend without interruption.

About the Company

Raytheon Company, with 2016 sales of $24 billion and 63,000 employees, is a technology and innovation leader specializing in defense, civil government, and cybersecurity solutions. With a history of innovation spanning 95 years, Raytheon provides state-of-the-art electronics, mission systems integration, C5I™ products and services, sensing, effects, and mission support for customers in more than 80 countries. Raytheon is headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts.

Recent Development for Raytheon

On June 26, 2017, Raytheon and the US Army Apache Program Management Office, in collaboration with US Special Operations Command, recently completed a successful flight test of a high energy laser system onboard an Apache AH-64 at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. The demonstration marks the first time that a fully integrated laser system successfully engaged and fired at a target from a rotary-wing aircraft over a wide variety of flight regimes, altitudes and air speeds.

The test achieved all primary and secondary goals, providing solid experimental evidence for the feasibility of high resolution, multi-band targeting sensor performance and beam propagation supportive of High Energy Laser capability for the rotary-wing attack mission.

“Our goal is to pull the future forward,” said Art Morrish, Vice President of Advanced Concept and Technologies for Raytheon Space and Airborne Systems, “This data collection shows we’re on the right track. By combining combat proven sensors, like the MTS, with multiple laser technologies, we can bring this capability to the battlefield sooner rather than later.”

Stock Performance

On Wednesday, June 28, 2017, the stock closed the trading session at $162.55, slightly climbing 0.86% from its previous closing price of $161.16. A total volume of 841.80 thousand shares have exchanged hands. Raytheon’s stock price surged 6.99% in the last three months, 13.61% in the past six months, and 22.23% in the previous twelve months. Furthermore, since the start of the year, shares of the Company have rallied 14.47%. The stock is trading at a PE ratio of 20.98 and has a dividend yield of 1.96%. At Wednesday’s closing price, the stock’s net capitalization stands at $48.03 billion.

(NASDAQ: ARLZ), following which we have published a free report that can be viewed by signing up at http://protraderdaily.com/optin/?symbol=ARLZ. The Company announced on June 27, 2017, that the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey upheld the validity of two patents owned by a subsidiary of Aralez and licensed to Horizon Pharma PLC, over VIMOVO (naproxen/esomeprazole magnesium). The dispute arose over the case that Dr. Reddy’s, Lupin, or Mylan would infringe at least one of the two patents, with their proposed generic naproxen/esomeprazole magnesium products.

The Announcement

This upholds of validity of the two patents follows the patent infringement lawsuits filed by an Aralez’s subsidiary on April 21, 2011, July 25, 2011, and June 28, 2013, in District Court against Dr. Reddy’s, Lupin, and Mylan, respectively, related to the Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDA) filed with the FDA to market generic versions of VIMOVO. The lawsuits filed denotes infringement claim of US Patent Nos. 8,557,285 (‘285 patent) and 6,926,907 (‘907 patent) titled “Pharmaceutical Compositions for the Coordinated Delivery of NSAIDs,” which cover VIMOVO. The District Court’s decision was made based on the validity of the ‘285 and ‘907 patents for VIMOVO and the Court’s judgment will prevent Dr. Reddy’s, Mylan, and Lupin from launching generic versions of VIMOVO in the United States until at least the expiration of the relevant patent.

The Company views this announcement as a fair and appropriate ruling regarding the litigation. The Company stated that the ruling demonstrates the strength of its portfolio of VIMOVO and Yosprala, while it remains committed aggressively to defend its intellectual property portfolio.

What is VIMOVO?

VIMOVO is a fixed combination of naproxen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, and esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) indicated for the relief of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis and to decrease the risk of developing gastric ulcers in patients at risk of developing NSAID-associated gastric ulcers. The drug decreases the risk of developing gastric ulcers in patients at risk of developing NSAID-associated gastric ulcers. The drug VIMOVO is not interchangeable with the individual components of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium.

VIMOVO currently has 14 Orange Book listed patents with terms that exceed up to 20131. The ‘907 patent is also listed in the Orange Book for Yosprala (aspirin/omeprazole) and has been asserted against Teva Pharmaceuticals US, Inc., (NYSE: TEVA) in a separate patent infringement case.

Company Growth Prospects

Aralez recently announced on June 07, 2017, the national commercial launch of Zontivity (vorapaxar) in the US. Zontivity is the only antiplatelet therapy that inhibits PAR-1 mediated platelet aggregation in response to thrombin. Zontivity is a once-daily agent indicated for the reduction of thrombotic CV events in patients with a history of myocardial infarction in patients with the peripheral arterial disease. This announcement came on the heels of the commencement of phased launch of Zontivity on April 24, 2017, utilizing 15 sales representatives deployed to high volume physicians who treat post-MI and PAD patients.

On May 09, 2017, the Company announced its guidance as it expects net revenues to be in the range of $80 million to $100 million for the year ending December 31, 2017.

Corporate News Blog – Regeneron and Sanofi Announced Kevzara Approval by the European Commission

Rheumatoid Arthritis

RA is a difficult-to-treat, lifelong disease, where many healthcare providers are challenged with finding a treatment that works for their patients. RA affects about 2.9 million people in Europe itself, where in the immune system it attacks the tissues of the joints, causing inflammation, joint pain, swelling, stiffness, fatigue and eventually joint damage and disability, and is most common in those aged between 35 to 50 years old.

Kevzara is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active RA, who have had an inadequate response to one or more DMARDs. Kevzara is a human monoclonal antibody that binds to the interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) and blocks pro-inflammatory IL-6 mediated signaling. Patients with RA usually have elevated levels of IL-6 in their synovial fluid, where both pathologic inflammation and joint destruction are hallmarks of RA. Kevzara was developed using the Company’s proprietary VelocImmune technology that yields optimized full-human antibodies.

The EC Approval

The EC Approval based on a positive opinion by European Medicine Agency (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), evaluated results from seven Phase-3 trials, in the global SARIL-RA clinical development program. The studies incorporate data from about 3,300 adults with moderately to severely active RA, who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to one or more biologic or non-biologic DMARDs.

In the Phase-3 MONARCH study, Kevzara 200 mg was indicated against adalimumab 40mg (also known as HUMIRA by AbbVie) monotherapy, where the former was observed in reducing disease activity and improving physical function, with more patients achieving clinical remission over 24 weeks. In Phase-study with Kevzara plus MTX, reduced signs and symptoms of RA were observed, with improved physical function. At week 52, it inhibited the progression of structural damage by 91% for the Kevzara 200 mg dose and 68% for Kevzara 150 mg dose, compared to placebo plus MTX.

The Delayed FDA Approval

Last year, in October 2016, Sanofi and Regeneron expected that at the end of the month, i.e., the PDUFA date, the Companies would get the US nod for its IL-6R contender in RA. However, the Companies were hit by a complete response letter from the FDA for manufacturing concerns, where experimental med sarilumab faced months of delay. According to the Companies, FDA disapproved the med over certain deficiencies identified during a routine good manufacturing practice inspection of the Sanofi Le Trait Facility. However, on May 22, 2017, after almost 7 months of delay, the Companies received FDA approval for sarilumab, paving the path for future development and eligibility for manufacturing and sales of sarilumab in the US.

Last Close Stock Review

At the closing bell, on Wednesday, June 28, 2017, Regeneron Pharma’s stock climbed 2.20%, ending the trading session at $513.19. A total volume of 932.79 thousand shares have exchanged hands. The Company’s stock price skyrocketed 30.20% in the last three months, 32.97% in the past six months, and 51.04% in the previous twelve months. Moreover, the stock soared 39.80% since the start of the year. The stock is trading at a PE ratio of 61.74 and currently has a market cap of $54.08 billion.
