differentiated antibody therapies and will advance Genmab towards
our ambitious 2030 vision of transforming the lives of patients

Financial Performance First Half of 2024
- Revenue was DKK 9,545 million for the first six months of 2024
compared to DKK 7,003 million for the first six months of 2023. The
increase of DKK 2,542 million, or 36%, was primarily driven by
higher DARZALEX® (daratumumab) and Kesimpta® (ofatumumab) royalties
achieved under our collaborations with Janssen Biotech, Inc.
(Janssen) and Novartis Pharma AG (Novartis), respectively, and
increased EPKINLY net product sales.
- Royalty revenue was DKK 7,673 million in the first six months
of 2024 compared to DKK 5,886 million in the first six months of
2023, an increase of DKK 1,787 million, or 30%. The increase in
royalties was driven by higher net sales of DARZALEX and
Kesimpta.
- Net sales of DARZALEX, including sales of the subcutaneous (SC)
product (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, sold under the
tradename DARZALEX FASPRO® in the U.S.), by Janssen were USD 5,570
million in the first six months of 2024 compared to USD 4,695
million in the first six months of 2023, an increase of USD 875
million or 19%.
- Total costs and operating expenses were DKK 7,104 million in
the first six months of 2024 compared to DKK 5,118 million in the
first six months of 2023. The increase of DKK 1,986 million, or
39%, was driven by the expansion of our product pipeline, EPKINLY
post-launch activities in the U.S. and Japan, the continued
development of Genmab’s broader organizational capabilities and
related increase in team members to support these activities, as
well as profit-sharing amounts payable to AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie)
related to EPKINLY sales.
- Operating profit was DKK 2,441 million in the first six months
of 2024 compared to DKK 1,885 million in the first six months of
2023.
- Net financial items resulted in income of DKK 1,402 million for
the first six months of 2024 compared to DKK 75 million in the
first six months of 2023. The increase of DKK 1,327 million was
primarily driven by movements in USD to DKK foreign exchange rates
impacting Genmab’s USD denominated cash and cash equivalents and
marketable securities, with strengthening of the USD/DKK rate in
the first six months of 2024 compared to the weakening of the
USD/DKK rate in the first six months of 2023.
Significant Event Post-quarter End
- August: Genmab announced that it will assume sole
responsibility for the continued development and potential
commercialization of acasunlimab. BioNTech SE (BioNTech) has opted
not to participate in the further development of the acasunlimab
program under the parties’ existing collaboration agreement. The
program will be subject to payment of certain milestones and a
tiered single-digit royalty on net sales by Genmab to BioNTech.
While the emerging clinical profile of acasunlimab is encouraging,
BioNTech informed the company that it has taken this decision for
reasons relating to its portfolio strategy. The companies’
long-standing collaboration in antibody science remains in place,
and both parties will continue with the existing programs under
development under their existing agreements, which were expanded in
2022.
