Basis of Presentation The Company is a public limited company formed under the laws of Ireland. The Company operates through a number of international and U.S. subsidiaries with principal business purposes to either perform research and development or manufacturing operations, serve as distributors of the Company’s medicines, hold intellectual property assets or provide services and financial support to the Company. The directors have elected to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Section 279 of the Companies Act 2014, which provides that a true and fair view of the state of affairs and profit or loss may be given by preparing the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), as defined in Section 279 of the Companies Act 2014, to the extent that the use of those principles in the preparation of the financial statements does not contravene any provision of the Irish Companies Acts (collectively, the “Companies Act”) or of any regulations made thereunder. Formation of the Company and Strategic Transactions On September 19, 2014, the businesses of Horizon Pharma, Inc. (“HPI”) and Vidara Therapeutics International Public Limited Company (“Vidara”) were combined in a merger transaction (the “Vidara Merger”), accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations, with HPI treated as the acquiring company in the Vidara Merger for accounting purposes. As part of the Vidara Merger, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vidara merged with and into HPI, with HPI surviving the Vidara Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Vidara. Prior to the Vidara Merger, Vidara changed its name to Horizon Pharma plc (or the “Company”). Upon the consummation of the Vidara Merger, the historical financial statements of HPI became the Company’s historical financial statements. Accordingly, the historical financial statements of HPI are included in the comparative prior periods. The consolidated financial statements presented herein include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Horizon Pharma plc and its consolidated subsidiaries, including its predecessor, HPI. All references to “Vidara” are references to Horizon Pharma plc (formerly known as Vidara Therapeutics International Public Limited Company) and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the effective time of the Vidara Merger on September 19, 2014. The disclosures in this report relating to the pre-Vidara Merger business of Horizon Pharma plc, unless noted as being the business of Vidara prior to the Vidara Merger, pertain to the business of HPI prior to the Vidara Merger. On May 7, 2015, the Company completed its acquisition of Hyperion Therapeutics Inc. (“Hyperion”) in which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Hyperion’s common stock for $46.00 per share in cash or approximately $1.1 billion on a fully-diluted basis. Following the completion of the acquisition, Hyperion became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and was renamed as Horizon Therapeutics, Inc. (which subsequently converted to a limited liability company, Horizon Therapeutics, LLC). On January 13, 2016, the Company completed its acquisition of Crealta Holdings LLC (“Crealta”) for approximately $539.7 million, including cash acquired of $24.9 million and $70.9 million to repay Crealta’s outstanding debt. Following completion of the acquisition, Crealta became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and was renamed as Horizon Pharma Rheumatology LLC. On October 25, 2016, the Company completed its acquisition of Raptor Pharmaceutical Corp. (“Raptor”) in which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Raptor’s common stock for $9.00 per share in cash. The total consideration was $860.8 million, including cash acquired of $24.9 million and $56.0 million to repay Raptor’s outstanding debt. Following completion of the acquisition, Raptor became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and converted to a limited liability company, changing its name to Horizon Pharmaceutical LLC. The Company financed the transaction through $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.75% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Senior Notes”), $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of loans pursuant to an amendment to the Company’s existing credit agreement and cash on hand. The consolidated financial statements presented herein include the results of operations of the acquired Vidara, Hyperion, Crealta and Raptor businesses from the applicable dates of acquisition. See Note 7 for further details of business acquisitions. 3 Principal Activities The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused on improving patients’ lives by identifying, developing, acquiring and commercializing differentiated and accessible medicines that address unmet medical needs. The Company markets eleven medicines through its orphan, rheumatology and primary care business units. The Company’s marketed medicines are ACTIMMUNE® (interferon gamma-1b), BUPHENYL® (sodium phenylbutyrate) Tablets and Powder, DUEXIS® (ibuprofen/famotidine), KRYSTEXXA® (pegloticase), MIGERGOT® (ergotamine tartrate & caffeine suppositories), PENNSAID® (diclofenac sodium topical solution) 2% w/w (“PENNSAID 2%”), PROCYSBI® (cysteamine bitartrate) delayed- release capsules, QUINSAIR™ (aerosolized form of levofloxacin), RAVICTI® (glycerol phenylbutyrate) Oral Liquid, RAYOS® (prednisone) delayed-release tablets and VIMOVO® (naproxen/esomeprazole magnesium). On May 18, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH (“Boehringer Ingelheim International”) to acquire certain rights to interferon gamma-1b, which Boehringer Ingelheim International currently commercializes under the trade names IMUKIN®, IMUKINE®, IMMUKIN® and IMMUKINE® in an estimated thirty countries, primarily in Europe and the Middle East. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid Boehringer Ingelheim International €5.0 million ($5.6 million when converted using a Euro-to-Dollar exchange rate at date of payment of 1.1132) upon signing and will pay €20.0 million upon closing, for certain rights for interferon gamma-1b in all territories outside of the United States, Canada and Japan, as the Company currently holds marketing rights to interferon gamma- 1b in these territories. The Company currently markets interferon gamma-1b as ACTIMMUNE® in the United States. The transaction is expected to close in 2017 and the Company is continuing to work with Boehringer Ingelheim International to enable the transfer of applicable marketing authorizations. On December 8, 2016, the Company announced that the Phase 3 trial, Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of ACTIMMUNE Dose Escalation in Friedreich’s Ataxia study (“STEADFAST”) evaluating ACTIMMUNE for the treatment of Friedreich’s ataxia (“FA”) did not meet its primary endpoint of a statistically significant change from baseline in the modified Friedreich’s Ataxia Rating Scale (“FARS-mNeuro”), at twenty-six weeks versus treatment with placebo. In addition, the secondary endpoints did not meet statistical significance. No new safety findings were identified on initial review of data other than those already noted in the ACTIMMUNE prescribing information for approved indications. The Company, in conjunction with the independent Data Safety Monitoring Board, the principal investigator and the Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance (“FARA”) Collaborative Clinical Research Network in FA, determined that, based on the trial results, the STEADFAST program would be discontinued, including the twenty-six week extension study and the long-term safety study. Following this announcement, the Company recorded in “general and administrative expenses” an impairment charge to fully write off the carrying value of the €5.0 million initial payment ($5.3 million when converted using a Euro-to-Dollar exchange rate at date of impairment

  • Understanding the FTC's Monetary Equitable Remedies Under Section
    Understanding the FTC’s monetary equitable remedies under Section 13(b) for antitrust violations By Gerald A. Stein, American Bar Association — Fall 2019 Until recently the Federal Trade Commission’s ability to seek monetary equitable remedies (particularly disgorgement and restitution) for alleged antitrust violations— whether ongoing, impending, or stale— went virtually unchallenged. After it first gained statutory authority under Section 13(b)1 of the FTC Act to bring suit in federal district court to preliminarily enjoin conduct that “is violating, or is about to violate” the antitrust laws, the FTC successfully convinced many federal courts that Section 13(b) also impliedly allowed the FTC to seek standalone permanent injunctions and monetary equitable remedies regardless of whether a defendant’s alleged anticompetitive conduct was ongoing or completed long ago.2 The FTC brought few antitrust cases in the years following the enactment for alleged antitrust violations pursuant to Section 13(b) where the alleged of Section 13(b) in 1973, and the agency formalized its conservative anticompetitive conduct was neither ongoing nor imminent. Next, in approach in its unanimously approved 2003 Policy Statement on Monetary FTC v. Credit Bureau Center LLC,5 the Seventh Circuit vacated an award for Equitable Remedies in Competition Cases. In 2012, however, the FTC restitution in a consumer protection case based on its determination that abruptly, and without providing an opportunity for public comment, Section 13(b) authorizes only restraining orders and injunctions. And, in a withdrew its 2003 Policy Statement, asserting that it created “an overly third case that is still pending, FTC v.

Mylan’s doxycycline price increases were called out by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., in October 2014 when they sent letters to 14 generic drug makers about the pricing of their prod- ucts. They noted that from October 2013 to April 2014, the average price charged for a 500-count bottle of 100 mg tablets had risen from $20 to $1,829, an 8,281% increase. Mylan is now under fire for repeatedly rais- ing the price of its severe allergy treatment EpiPen (epinephrine), which has increased from about $100 for a two-pack in 2008 to more than $600.
