We completed transactions with Azur Pharma and EUSA Pharma that broadened our product portfolio, enhanced the scale and capabilities of our company, and created an effective corporate platform for future growth, which enabled us to increase the number of patients benefiting from our therapies. Additionally, we aligned our commercial operations with our expanded product portfolio—all while delivering strong growth in revenues and earnings driven by our core products. In 2012 we demonstrated our ability to deliver strong growth, with: s Total revenues of $586.0 million, an increase of 115% over the prior year s Xyrem net sales of $378.7 million, up 62% from the prior year s Adjusted net income of $290.4 million, or $4.82 per diluted share, compared to 2011 adjusted net income of $164.9 million, or $3.52 per diluted share. 2012 GAAP income from continuing operations was $261.1 million, or $4.34 per diluted share, compared to $125.0 million, or $2.67 per diluted share, for 2011 We remain committed to our strategy for sustainable growth of the top and bottom line by focusing on: s Unlocking the full potential of our product portfolio by applying our core expertise in commercializing specialty products to a targeted physician base with an emphasis on consultative clinical selling, sophisticated reimbursement and distribution support and providing healthcare provider education and direct-to-patient services s Utilizing our strong balance sheet and cash flow to enhance shareholder value through additional acquisitions and targeted R&D investments with an emphasis on products that are in late-stage development or currently marketed s Disciplined resource allocation And in the first quarter of 2013, we are continuing to execute on these strategies as demonstrated by: s Total revenues of $196.2 million, an increase of 91% compared to total revenues of $102.5 million in the first quarter of 2012, driven by record net sales of Xyrem and Erwinaze s Adjusted net income of $84.4 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, compared to $51.7 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2012. Both GAAP income from continuing operations and GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2013 were $43.4 million, or $0.71 per diluted share. GAAP income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2012 was $30.2 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, and GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $27.7 million, or $0.48 per diluted share s Cash and cash equivalents of $450.5 million as of March 31, 2013 In May 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the use of up to $200 million to repurchase the company’s ordinary shares. We believe this presents an opportunity to increase shareholder value, while maintaining significant financial flexibility to finance future corporate development opportunities. 2013 is shaping up to be a notable year for Jazz Pharmaceuticals as we build on our success and momentum from 2012 to continue our mission of improving patients’ lives. I want to thank our employees for their passion and dedication to delivering important therapies to patients through a period of rapid change. I want to thank you—our shareholders—for your continued support as we continue to help patients in need and pursue opportunities to generate significant shareholder value. Bruce C.

This is a securities class action on behalf of all purchasers of the common stock of Alkermes, Inc. (“Alkermes” or the “Company”) between April 22, 1999 and July 1, 2002 (the “Class Period”), against Alkermes and certain of its officers and directors for violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). 2.

Janssen has marketed the oral form of Risperdal since 1993, with sales of $2.3 billion in 2003.

  • Perrigo Needs Deal to Thwart Mylan

    Perrigo Needs Deal to Thwart Mylan

    November 02, 2015 Perrigo needs deal to thwart Mylan Madeleine Armstrong Perrigo continues to resist Mylan’s overtures, but a deal is looking increasingly likely after its attempts to block the buy in court failed. Mylan has until November 13 to tempt Perrigo shareholders under Irish takeover rules. An acquisition of its own might now be the only hope for Perrigo in this buy-or-be-bought saga. But, with increasing consolidation in the speciality pharma space, the pool of potential targets is dwindling (see table below). The best option looks like Endo International, though its market cap of nearly $14bn might make it too big a bite for Perrigo, which has just $5bn in cash. But if Perrigo could pull it off it would gain a company with one of the best forecast growth rates in mid-tier pharma. Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Meda or Lundbeck could be easier to digest but the last, with faltering sales, might not be such an attractive proposition. Perrigo and its potential acquisition targets Company Based Market cap ($bn) 2014 sales ($m) 2020e sales ($m) CAGR Perrigo Ireland 23.1 815 1,388 +9% Endo International US 13.6 2,053 5,616 +18% Jazz Pharmaceuticals Ireland 8.4 1,163 2,151 +11 Lundbeck Denmark 5.9 2,222 1,974 -2% Meda Sweden 5.4 1,963 2,519 +4% Last line of defence Perrigo’s chief executive, Joseph Papa, is standing firm but the company’s share price closed down 5% at $157.74 on Friday, well off its 2015 high of $203.69 in April after Mylan formalised its bid (Mylan anti-chain action as good as confirms Teva interest, April 09, 2015).
