Endo Reports Second Quarter Financial Results and Updates 2012 Financial Guidance

CHADDS FORD, Pa., Aug 7, 2012  /PRNewswire/ --

• Total quarterly revenues of $785 million, increased 29 percent versus prior year
• Qualitest grows quarterly sales by 20 percent versus prior year
• Commercial conversion of  OPANA^® ER to new formulation designed to be crush-resistant  completed during second quarter
• Company maintains adjusted diluted EPS in the range of $5.00 to $5.20; Now expects reported diluted (GAAP) EPS in the range of $1.07 to $1.27
• Company now expects revenues of $3.05 to $3.175 billion in 2012

Endo Health Solutions (Nasdaq: ENDP) today reported a 29 percent increase in total revenues during the second quarter of 2012 to $785 million, compared with $608 million in the same quarter of 2011, reflecting organic growth and the acquisition of American Medical Systems (AMS) in June 2011.  Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $9 million, compared with net income of $55 million reported in the comparable 2011 period.  Reported net income includes the effect of a non-cash, pre-tax charge of $131 million for the period to reflect the estimated fair value of the settlement component of Endo's 2012 settlement and license agreement with Watson Pharmaceuticals (Watson), which settled all ongoing patent litigation among the parties relating to Watson's generic version of LIDODERM^® (lidocaine patch 5%).   

As detailed in the supplemental financial information below, adjusted net income for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $154 million, compared with $129 million in the same period in 2011.  Reported diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 were $0.08, compared with $0.44 in the second quarter of 2011.  Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the same period were $1.27 compared with $1.05 reported in 2011.

"Endo had a strong second quarter, as our diversified business produced the opportunities needed to deliver better than expected earnings per share," said Dave Holveck, president and CEO of Endo. "I remain very positive about the growth prospects across the board.  More importantly, I am proud of the introduction and receptivity of the new formulation of OPANA ER, which is designed to be crush resistant, as a positive step in the battle against inappropriate use.  Endo has been a long-time responsible partner in the pain management space, and we believe the reformulated OPANA ER is an important step in supporting appropriate use of the product."

ENDO PHARMACEUTICALS
Branded pharmaceutical sales of $443 million for the second quarter represented an increase of 11 percent versus the prior year.  

Net sales of LIDODERM increased 16 percent on 2 percent prescription growth.  The increase in LIDODERM net sales is primarily a result of changes from November 2011, with respect to royalty obligations among Endo, Hind Healthcare Inc., and Teikoku Seiyaku Co. Ltd.; changes that have been previously described in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

During second quarter 2012, Endo announced that it had reached an agreement with Watson resolving two patent infringement lawsuits related to LIDODERM. The agreement resolved the inherent uncertainties of this litigation and reflects the uncertainty created by the regulatory challenges facing generic manufacturers seeking to market a generic version of LIDODERM. 

In addition, in March 2012, Endo submitted an amended Citizen Petition (CP) highlighting the scientific and regulatory support for requiring generic manufacturers to conduct comparative clinical endpoint studies to demonstrate bioequivalence to locally acting topical products like LIDODERM. The CP, which can be found at www.endo.com/investors/overview, is currently under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the company continues to believe in the merits of the arguments set forth in the CP. 

During the second quarter of 2012, Endo announced the completion of the company's transition of its OPANA ER franchise to the new formulation designed to be crush-resistant.  In connection with the completion of this transition, the FDA moved all the strengths of the old formulation of OPANA ER to the Orange Book Discontinued List.  The result is that the new formulation designed to be crush-resistant (under NDA 201655) remains on the approved prescription drug product list and is the only commercially available formulation of OPANA ER.

QUALITEST
Generic product sales of $160 million for the second quarter 2012 represented an increase of 20 percent over the same period last year.  The increase was driven by strong demand for Qualitest's diversified product portfolio and favorable pricing, resulting in gross profit of approximately 40 percent.  Strong net sales growth is expected for Qualitest for the remainder of 2012.  Sales growth is expected to be driven by strong demand for its commercial products and a stable pricing environment.  Qualitest remains focused on process improvements and increased efficiencies in order to enhance manufacturing capacity.

In July, Qualitest announced that it had received FDA approval for its Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for Levetiracetam extended-release tablets, 500mg and 750mg, the generic equivalent of UCB's Keppra XR^®.  Additionally, on Aug. 6, the company announced its launch of a generic version of Singulair^® (montelukast sodium) Tablets and Chewable Tablets.  Total combined branded sales for Montelukast Sodium Tablets and Chewables in the U.S. for the 12 months ending June 30, 2012 were approximately $4.9 billion, according to IMS Health.        

AMS
Devices sales, driven by the June 2011 acquisition of AMS, were $128 million for the second quarter.  Men's Health, led by sales of the AMS 800^® Artificial Urinary Sphincter, increased 40 percent on a pro forma basis in the second quarter of 2012, compared with same period last year. The sales growth rate for the period primarily benefits from the temporary withdrawal of the AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter from the market during second quarter 2011. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), although led by the increasing share of procedural volumes for the GreenLight XPS^™ console and the accompanying MoXy fiber, decreased 4 percent on a pro forma basis in the second quarter of 2012.  Women's Health sales decreased 30 percent on a pro forma basis in the second quarter of 2012, compared with same period last year.  Net sales declines in Women's Health were driven by year-over-year declines in procedural volumes reflecting recent industry shifts following the FDA's advisory committee meeting regarding the use of surgical mesh.  AMS remains focused on physician and patient education activities as part of an overall effort to continue to encourage physicians and patients to discuss the risks and benefits of the company's surgical mesh devices as an important treatment option for patients who suffer from stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse.

HEALTHTRONICS
Services sales of $54 million for the second quarter 2012 represented an increase of 10 percent over last year.  Second quarter growth for HealthTronics was driven by the increasing sales of lab services and the strategic addition of its electronic medical records offering.  The company expects improved top-line growth from the Services segment in 2012 and beyond from the recent addition of its electronic medical records offering that is focused on practices specializing in urology and an expanding set of partnerships in its Endocare^® cryoablation therapy business.

2012 Financial Guidance
Endo's estimates are based on actual results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and management's current belief about prescription trends, pricing levels, inventory levels and the anticipated timing of future product launches and events.  The company's guidance for reported (GAAP) earnings per share does not include any estimates for the potential future changes in the fair value of contingent consideration or for potential new corporate development transactions.  For the full year ended Dec 31, 2012 Endo estimates:

• Total revenue to be between $3.05 billion and $3.175 billion
• Total Endo Pharmaceuticals segment revenue to be between $1.675 billion and $1.73 billion
• Total Qualitest segment revenue to be between $640 million and $670 million
• Total AMS segment revenue to be between $515 million and $535 million
• Total HealthTronics segment revenue to be between $220 million and $240 million
• Reported (GAAP) diluted earnings per share to be between $1.07 and $1.27
• Adjusted diluted earnings per share to be between $5.00 and $5.20
• Cash flow from operations between $700 million and $800 million
• Capital expenditures to be approximately $120 million

The company's 2012 guidance is based on certain assumptions including:

• Adjusted gross margin of between 68 percent and 69 percent
• Adjusted effective tax rate of between 30.5 percent and 31.5 percent
• Weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 121 million shares for the year ended Dec 31, 2012

Balance Sheet Update
During the second quarter of 2012, Endo made the mandatory payments of approximately $14 million to reduce the outstanding principal of term loan debt associated with the acquisition of AMS.  This brings the total repayments on this debt to approximately $523 million, inclusive of $465 million in cumulative voluntary prepayments, through second quarter 2012.  We believe that we will achieve our objective of reducing our debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio to 2.0 to 2.5 times in 2013.
