Flemming Ornskov, M.D. Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"Shire is off to a strong start in 2016, delivering double-digit product sales and Non GAAP earnings per ADS growth, and advancing our innovative pipeline. We were pleased to report positive Phase 3 topline results for SHP465 in children and adolescents with ADHD, a therapeutic area with significant need for additional treatment options. We are also looking forward to hearing from the FDA by late July regarding lifitegrast, a potential new treatment for dry eye disease.
While we maintain our sharp focus on Shire's business, we closed the acquisition of Dyax during the quarter and we are making excellent progress with the Baxalta integration planning. Our shareholder vote is scheduled for May 27 and the closing is anticipated to follow in early June. We look forward to officially welcoming our Baxalta colleagues to Shire, and creating a global biotechnology leader focused on rare diseases and other highly specialized conditions."
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
First Quarter 2016 Unaudited Results
- Total product sales were up 14% on Q1 2015 (up 16% on a Non GAAP CER basis) at $1,627 million (Q1 2015: $1,423 million), with strong revenue growth from VYVANSE (up 22% to $509 million), LIALDA/MEZAVANT (up 13% to $168 million), CINRYZE (up 11% to $164 million), FIRAZYR (up 39% to $128 million) and GATTEX/REVESTIVE (up 97% on a pro-forma basis(1) to $52 million).
- Royalties and other revenues were up 26% to $82 million, as Q1 2016 benefited from a full quarter of SENSIPAR® royalties acquired with NPS.
- On a Non GAAP basis:
Operating income increased 17% to $797 million (Q1 2015: $683 million) as combined Research & Development expenditure ("R&D") and Selling, General and Administrative expenditure ("SG&A") (up 14%) grew at a slower rate than total revenues. R&D increased by 14% compared to Q1 2015 due to the inclusion of Dyax operating costs and continued investment in the existing pipeline. SG&A increased by 14%, primarily due to the inclusion of Dyax operating costs and increased marketing spend for the anticipated lifitegrast launch (which remains subject to regulatory approval).
Non GAAP EBITDA margin (excluding royalties and other revenues) was 46%, consistent with the margin achieved in Q1 2015.
On a US GAAP basis (from continuing operations):
Operating income was up 15% to $544 million (Q1 2015: $475 million). US GAAP operating income growth in Q1 2016 was lower than Non GAAP operating income due to the inclusion of higher amortization expense related to the intangible assets acquired with Dyax and NPS, and higher acquisition costs, primarily related to the announced combination with Baxalta.
- Non GAAP diluted earnings per American Depositary Share ("ADS") increased 12% to $3.19 (Q1 2015: $2.84), primarily due to higher Non GAAP operating income, partially offset by higher interest expense.
On a US GAAP basis diluted earnings per ADS increased 2% to $2.12 (Q1 2015: $2.08), primarily due to higher US GAAP operating income, partially offset by an increase in interest expense and higher effective tax rate on US GAAP income. - Cash generation, a Non GAAP measure, was down 5% to $492 million compared to $516 million in Q1 2015, primarily due to higher integration and acquisition costs for Dyax and Baxalta and the timing of payments of accounts payable, offset by strong cash receipts from higher sales.
Free cash flow, a Non GAAP measure, was down 38% to $338 million (Q1 2015: $542 million), primarily due to lower cash generation and higher payments for taxes in Q1 2016 compared to the benefit of a tax repayment in Q1 2015, an increase in capital expenditures, and higher interest payments.
On a US GAAP basis, net cash provided by operating activities was down 31% to $390 million (Q1 2015: $562 million), primarily due to lower cash generation and higher payments for taxes in Q1 2016 compared to the benefit of a tax repayment in Q1 2015, and higher interest payments.
Net debt, a Non GAAP measure, at March 31, 2016 was $6,809 million (December 31, 2015: $1,459 million) reflecting the use of cash and cash equivalents and borrowings incurred to fund the acquisition of Dyax.
(1) Sales prior to February 21, 2015 were recorded by NPS.
OUTLOOK
We are off to a strong start in 2016 and reiterate our previously announced 2016 guidance. The guidance provided excludes the effect of the anticipated combination with Baxalta which is expected to close in June.
We continue to expect product sales to increase by 11% to 14% on a reported basis in 2016, and increase approximately 13% to 17% on a Non GAAP CER basis.
Royalties and other revenues are expected to increase by 5% to 10% in 2016, primarily from the benefit of a full year of the SENSIPAR royalty stream acquired as part of the NPS transaction and royalties acquired as part of the Dyax transaction.
Our Non GAAP gross margin is expected to be in line with 2015 (2015: 85.5%).
We expect our combined Non GAAP R&D and SG&A costs to increase in the 12% to 14% range as we absorb the operating costs associated with the Dyax transaction, make commercial investments to support our anticipated launch of lifitegrast in the second half of this year and progress our pipeline, particularly the programs in late-stage clinical development.
As a result of funding the Dyax transaction with a $5.6 billion term loan bank facility, we expect our Non GAAP net interest and other expense to increase by approximately 1.5 to 2 times 2015 levels (2015: $49 million).
For 2016, we expect our effective tax rate on Non GAAP income to be in the range of 16% to 18%.
For Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS, we expect 2016 growth in the 7% to 10% range (9% to 13% on a Non GAAP CER basis).
FIRST QUARTER 2016 AND RECENT PRODUCT AND PIPELINE DEVELOPMENTS
Products
BUCCOLAM® for the treatment of prolonged, acute, and convulsive seizures in infants, toddlers, children and adolescents
- On February 18, 2016, the FDA granted orphan designation to BUCCOLAM for the treatment of status epilepticus. Further, the FDA advised that they consider status epilepticus a unique indication compared to repetitive seizures.
VYVANSE for the treatment of ADHD and Binge Eating Disorder ("BED") in adults
- An NDA has been submitted to the FDA for VYVANSE (lisdexamfetamine dimesylate) as a chewable tablet formulation.
- A marketing application for VYVANSE BED in adults has been filed in Australia.
CINRYZE for the prophylactic treatment of HAE
- CINRYZE was launched in Canada in February 2016.
Pipeline
SHP465 for the treatment of ADHD
- On April 4, 2016, Shire announced positive topline results of SHP465 (triple-bead mixed amphetamine salts), an investigational oral stimulant medication being evaluated as a potential treatment for ADHD. In a safety and efficacy study in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years with ADHD, the primary efficacy analysis demonstrated that SHP465 was superior to placebo on the change from baseline in ADHD-RS-IV ("ADHD rating scale"). SHP465 was also superior to placebo in the key secondary efficacy analysis on the clinical global impression improvement scale ("CGI-I"). Adverse events were generally mild-to-moderate in severity and similar to those observed in previous SHP465 studies and with other amphetamine compounds. The completion of this study addresses an FDA requirement to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SHP465 in children and adolescents prior to filing a Class 2 resubmission for FDA approval.
- In April 2016, Shire successfully completed a required pharmacokinetics ("PK") study of SHP465. The PK properties of SHP465 were well characterized in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years with ADHD and confirmed the exposure necessary for once-daily oral dosing.
FIRAZYR for the treatment of HAE in Japan
- In April 2016, Shire received preliminary results from a Phase 3 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FIRAZYR for the acute treatment of angioedema attacks in Japanese patients with HAE. The data demonstrated that the efficacy and safety profile was similar between Japanese patients and those patients who participated in Shire's previously-conducted Phase 3 program.
SHP625 for the treatment of cholestatic liver disease
- In April 2016, Shire received preliminary results from CAMEO, a Phase 2, open-label, non-comparative, 14 week study of SHP625 in adult patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of SHP625 and these safety and tolerability results were consistent with previous SHP625 studies. There were also significant reductions from baseline in serum bile acids and pruritus by ItchRO score, the magnitude of the effect being consistent with what has been observed in SHP625 studies of other patient populations. However, there was no significant reduction from baseline in serum alkaline phosphatase or other liver parameters. Shire continues to analyze the totality of the SHP625 data to determine an appropriate path forward.
OTHER FIRST QUARTER 2016 DEVELOPMENTS
Proposed Combination with Baxalta
- On April 18, 2016 Shire announced that the UK Listing Authority has approved a Class 1 circular and a prospectus in relation to the proposed combination with Baxalta dated April 18, 2016. The Shire and Baxalta shareholder meetings are scheduled for May 27, 2016, with the closing to occur on or around June 3, 2016, subject to regulatory and Shire and Baxalta shareholder approvals and other customary closing conditions.
- Shire has initiated integration planning with Baxalta. Shire and Baxalta have hosted joint integration summits, and had a series of collaborative and productive interactions. The executive leadership has been selected and Shire has defined the organizational structure of the combined company. Integration planning is on track and is ahead of other deals of this size, according to a 2016 McKinsey analysis from Deal Logic for transactions of over $5 billion in value (January 2009 to April 2015).
Acquisition of Dyax
- On January 22, 2016 Shire completed its acquisition of Dyax for upfront cash consideration of $5.9 billion. With the acquisition, Shire received the global rights to SHP643 (formerly known as DX2930), a Phase 3, fully humanized monoclonal antibody targeting plasma kallikrein with proof-of-concept Phase 1B efficacy data. These data demonstrate a greater than 90% reduction in HAE attacks compared to placebo in the 300mg/400mg arms in patients with more than 2 attacks in the 3 months prior to study entry. SHP643 has received Fast Track, Breakthrough Therapy, and Orphan Drug designations by the FDA and has also received Orphan Drug status in the EU. If approved globally for the prevention of Type 1 and Type 2 HAE, based on current market analysis Shire estimates that SHP643 could have the potential to generate annual global sales of up to $2 billion.
Legal Proceedings
Shire Wins Patent Trial against Watson Concerning LIALDA
- A ruling was issued by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida on March 28, 2016 upholding the validity of the patent for LIALDA and finding that Watson Laboratories, Inc. ("Watson") proposed abbreviated new drug application product infringes the patent-in-suit. Watson appealed the ruling to the U.S. Court of Appeals of the Federal Circuit.
ELVANSE® European Patent Upheld
- On April 14, 2016, Shire prevailed in upholding its European patent for ELVANSE. Shire initially prevailed in an opposition to its patent lodged by Johnson Matthey plc, Generics [UK] Limited (trading as Mylan) and Hexal AG and on April 14, 2016 we prevailed in the appeal. The decision by the appeals board of the European Patent Office is final and cannot be further appealed.

- IMS NPA data not available.
- Not sold in the US in Q1 2016.
- Product sales increased 97% on a pro-forma basis. Sales prior to February 21, 2015 were recorded by NPS.
VYVANSE - ADHD and BED
VYVANSE product sales increased 22% (up 23% on a Non GAAP CER basis) in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 2015. The increase was driven by year-over-year prescription growth in the US (up 10%), the benefit of price increases taken since Q1 2015 and, to a lesser extent, growth in our international markets. These growth factors were partially offset by higher sales deductions in Q1 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year.
LIALDA/MEZAVANT - Ulcerative Colitis
Product sales for LIALDA/MEZAVANT in Q1 2016 increased 13% (up 14% on a Non GAAP CER basis) compared to Q1 2015. The benefit of higher prescription demand and a price increase taken since Q1 2015 was partially offset by higher sales deductions in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 2015.
CINRYZE - for the prophylactic treatment of HAE
CINRYZE sales were up 11% (up 11% on a Non GAAP CER basis), primarily driven by strong growth in patients on therapy and higher utilization per patient in Q1 2016.
FIRAZYR - for the treatment of acute HAE attacks
FIRAZYR product sales were up 39% (up 40% on a Non GAAP CER basis), primarily due to growth in patients on therapy, higher utilization per patient and, to a lesser extent, price increases taken since Q1 2015.
ELAPRASE - Hunter syndrome
ELAPRASE product sales in Q1 2016 were down 1% compared to Q1 2015, reflecting the negative impact of foreign exchange movements. On a Non GAAP CER basis, ELAPRASE sales increased 4% compared to Q1 2015 due to an increase in the number of patients.
REPLAGAL - Fabry disease
REPLAGAL sales were up 6% compared to Q1 2015, reflecting a higher number of patients on therapy and the timing of a shipment to a market that orders less frequently. On a Non GAAP CER basis, REPLAGAL sales were up 12% compared to Q1 2015.
ADDERALL XR - ADHD
ADDERALL XR product sales were up 3% in Q1 2016 (up 4% on a Non GAAP CER basis), as increased prescription demand and higher stocking in the quarter more than offset the effect of higher sales deductions as a percentage of product sales in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 2015.
VPRIV - Gaucher disease
VPRIV product sales in Q1 2016 were down 3% (flat on a Non GAAP CER basis) as sales growth continued to be negatively impacted by foreign exchange rates and the impact of new competition in the US market.
PENTASA - Ulcerative Colitis
PENTASA product sales were down 19% (down 19% on a Non GAAP CER basis) in Q1 2016 driven by reduced prescription demand and destocking in Q1 2016 compared to stocking in Q1 2015.
GATTEX/REVESTIVE - Short Bowel Syndrome
Product sales increased to $52 million in Q1 2016 (up 97% on a pro-forma basis(1)).
(1) Sales prior to February 21, 2015 were recorded by NPS.
NATPARA - Hypoparathyroidism
NATPARA was launched on April 1, 2015. During Q1 2016, Shire recognized $16 million of product sales.
KALBITOR - for the treatment of acute HAE attacks
Shire acquired KALBITOR through its acquisition of Dyax on January 22, 2016, and recorded sales of $10 million for the period subsequent to acquisition.
INTUNIV - ADHD
INTUNIV product sales decreased 41% (down 39% on a Non GAAP CER basis) in Q1 2016 reflecting the continued impact of generic competitors, which has reduced market share. Generic competition began in December 2014.
2. Royalties
Year on year growth Royalties Product Income $M Royalties CER SENSIPAR 37.9 +264%(1) +264% FOSRENOL(R) 9.2 +10% +8% 3TC(R) and ZEFFIX(R) 15.0 +100% +100% ADDERALL XR 5.8 -32% -32% Other 11.3 -60% -59% Total 79.2 +26% +26%
Royalty income increased 26% in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 2015 primarily due to SENSIPAR. Shire acquired royalty rights to SENSIPAR as part of its acquisition of NPS, which closed February 21, 2015. Other royalties in Q1 2015 included $22 million of INTUNIV royalties that did not continue in 2016.
(1) Up 40% on a pro-forma basis. Royalties prior to February 21, 2015 were recorded by NPS.
3. Financial details
Cost of product sales

Non GAAP cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales remained constant in Q1 2016.
US GAAP cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales decreased due to the inclusion of AbbVie related costs and higher depreciation in Q1 2015.
R&D
% of % of product product Q1 2016 sales Q1 2015 sales $M $M R&D (US GAAP) 217.1 13% 193.7 14% Costs of employee retention awards following AbbVie's terminated offer - (5.8) Depreciation (5.9) (2.8) R&D (Non GAAP) 211.2 13% 185.1 13%
Non GAAP R&D increased by $26.1 million, or 14% in Q1 2016, due to continued investment in existing pipeline programs including SHP465 and additional R&D expenses not incurred in Q1 2015 related to programs acquired as part of the acquisitions of NPS and Dyax.
US GAAP R&D increased by $23.4 million, or 12%, as Q1 2015 included costs associated with AbbVie's terminated offer for Shire.
SG&A
% of % of product product Q1 2016 sales Q1 2015 sales $M $M SG&A (US GAAP) 609.5 37% 506.6 36% Intangible asset amortization (134.6) (88.3) Legal and litigation costs (15.0) (0.8) Costs incurred in connection with AbbVie's terminated offer - (13.5) Depreciation (20.1) (17.8) SG&A (Non GAAP) 439.8 27% 386.2 27%
Non GAAP SG&A increased by $53.6 million, or 14%, primarily reflecting marketing spend in support of the anticipated lifitegrast launch and ongoing GATTEX launches.
US GAAP SG&A increased by $102.9 million, or 20%, primarily as a result of higher amortization charges on intangible assets acquired with NPS and Dyax.
Reorganization costs
In Q1 2016, Shire recorded reorganization costs of $3.3 million (Q1 2015: $15.2 million), primarily related to the relocation of roles from Chesterbrook to Lexington.
Integration and acquisition costs
In Q1 2016 Shire recorded integration and acquisition costs of $91.1 million, primarily related to integration and acquisition costs related to Dyax and costs associated with the proposed combination with Baxalta.
In Q1 2015 Shire recorded integration and acquisition costs of $75.7 million, primarily related to the acquisition and integration of NPS.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased by $16.9 million on a Non GAAP basis in Q1 2016, primarily due to interest and amortization of financing fees incurred on borrowings to fund the Dyax acquisition. Interest expense in Q1 2015 primarily related to interest and amortization of fees incurred on borrowings to fund the NPS acquisition.
In Q1 2016 Shire incurred US GAAP interest expense of $44.7 million (Q1 2015: $9.6 million), primarily related to the above interest expense and the amortization of one-time upfront arrangement fees incurred on borrowings primarily associated with the proposed business combination with Baxalta.
Taxation
The effective tax rate on Non GAAP income in Q1 2016 was 18% (Q1 2015: 17%), and on a US GAAP basis the effective tax rate was 17% (Q1 2015: 12%).
The effective tax rate in Q1 2016 on Non GAAP income from continuing operations is marginally higher than the same period in 2015, primarily due to the benefit of the favorable re-measurement of uncertain tax positions in Q1 2015.
The effective tax rate in Q1 2016 on US GAAP income from continuing operations is higher than the same period in 2015, primarily due to the adverse impact in Q1 2016 of the one-time re-measurement of deferred tax as a result of the Dyax acquisition and the benefit of the favorable re-measurement of uncertain tax positions in Q1 2015.
Discontinued operations
The gain from discontinued operations in Q1 2016 was $9.5 million, net of tax (Q1 2015: $2.5 million loss, net of tax) primarily related to reimbursement of legal costs associated with the divested DERMAGRAFT business.

THE "SAFE HARBOR" STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
Statements included herein that are not historical facts, including without limitation statements concerning future strategy, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, the anticipated timing of clinical trials and approvals for, and the commercial potential of, inline or pipeline products are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties and are subject to change at any time. In the event such risks or uncertainties materialize, Shire's results could be materially adversely affected. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:
- the proposed combination with Baxalta may not be completed due to a failure to satisfy certain closing conditions, including any shareholder or regulatory approvals or the receipt of applicable tax opinions;
- disruption from the proposed transaction with Baxalta may make it more difficult to conduct business as usual or maintain relationships with patients, physicians, employees or suppliers;
- the combined company may not achieve some or all of the anticipated benefits of Baxalta's spin-off from Baxter International, Inc. ("Baxter") and the proposed transaction may have an adverse impact on Baxalta's existing arrangements with Baxter, including those related to transition, manufacturing and supply services and tax matters;
- the failure to achieve the strategic objectives with respect to the proposed combination with Baxalta may adversely affect the company's financial condition and results of operations;
- products and product candidates may not achieve commercial success;
- product sales from ADDERALL XR and INTUNIV are subject to generic competition;
- the failure to obtain and maintain reimbursement, or an adequate level of reimbursement, by third-party payers in a timely manner for the company's products may affect future revenues, financial condition and results of operations, particularly if there is pressure on pricing of products to treat rare diseases;
- supply chain or manufacturing disruptions may result in declines in revenue for affected products and commercial traction from competitors; regulatory actions associated with product approvals or changes to manufacturing sites, ingredients or manufacturing processes could lead to significant delays, an increase in operating costs, lost product sales, an interruption of research activities or the delay of new product launches;
- the successful development of products in various stages of research and development is highly uncertain and requires significant expenditures and time, and there is no guarantee that these products will receive regulatory approval;
- the actions of certain customers could affect the company's ability to sell or market products profitably, and fluctuations in buying or distribution patterns by such customers can adversely affect the company's revenues, financial condition or results of operations;
- investigations or enforcement action by regulatory authorities or law enforcement agencies relating to the company's activities in the highly regulated markets in which it operates may result in significant legal costs and the payment of substantial compensation or fines;
- adverse outcomes in legal matters, tax audits and other disputes, including the company's ability to enforce and defend patents and other intellectual property rights required for its business, could have a material adverse effect on the company's revenues, financial condition or results of operations;
- Shire is undergoing a corporate reorganization and was the subject of an unsuccessful acquisition proposal and the consequent uncertainty could adversely affect the company's ability to attract and/or retain the highly skilled personnel needed to meet its strategic objectives;
- failure to achieve the strategic objectives with respect to Shire's acquisition of NPS Pharmaceuticals Inc. or Dyax may adversely affect the company's financial condition and results of operations;
- the company is dependent on information technology and its systems and infrastructure face certain risks, including from service disruptions, the loss of sensitive or confidential information, cyber-attacks and other security breaches or data leakages that could have a material adverse effect on the company's revenues, financial condition or results of operations;
- the company may be unable to retain and hire key personnel and/or maintain its relationships with customers, suppliers and other business partners;
- difficulties in integrating Dyax or Baxalta into Shire may lead to the company not being able to realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements, synergies or other benefits at the time anticipated or at all; and
other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in Shire's, Dyax's or Baxalta's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including those risks outlined in "ITEM 1A: Risk Factors" in Shire's and Baxalta's Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
All forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law, we do not undertake any obligation to republish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
NON GAAP MEASURES
This press release contains financial measures not prepared in accordance with US GAAP. These measures are referred to as "Non GAAP" measures and include: Non GAAP operating income; Non GAAP net income; Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS; effective tax rate on Non GAAP income before income taxes and earnings/(losses) of equity method investees ("effective tax rate on Non GAAP income"); Non GAAP cost of product sales; Non GAAP gross margin; Non GAAP R&D; Non GAAP SG&A; Non GAAP other income/(expense); Non GAAP interest income; Non GAAP interest expense; Non GAAP cash generation; Non GAAP free cash flow, Non GAAP net debt, Non GAAP EBITDA and Non GAAP EBITDA margin (excluding royalties and other revenues)(1). These Non GAAP measures exclude the effect of certain cash and non-cash items that Shire's management believes are not related to the core performance of Shire's business.
These Non GAAP financial measures are used by Shire's management to make operating decisions because they facilitate internal comparisons of Shire's performance to historical results and to competitors' results. Shire's Remuneration Committee uses certain key Non GAAP measures when assessing the performance and compensation of employees, including Shire's executive directors.
The Non GAAP measures are presented in this press release as Shire's management believe that they will provide investors with a means of evaluating, and an understanding of how Shire's management evaluates, Shire's performance and results on a comparable basis that is not otherwise apparent on a US GAAP basis, since many non-recurring, infrequent or non-cash items that Shire's management believe are not indicative of the core performance of the business may not be excluded when preparing financial measures under US GAAP.
These Non GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
Where applicable the following items, including their tax effect, have been excluded when calculating Non GAAP earnings for both 2016 and 2015, and from our Outlook:
Amortization and asset impairments:
- Intangible asset amortization and impairment charges; and
- Other than temporary impairment of investments.
Acquisitions and integration activities:
- Up-front payments and milestones in respect of in-licensed and acquired products;
- Costs associated with acquisitions, including transaction costs, fair value adjustments on contingent consideration and acquired inventory;
- Costs associated with the integration of companies; and
- Noncontrolling interests in consolidated variable interest entities.
Divestments, reorganizations and discontinued operations:
- Gains and losses on the sale of non-core assets;
- Costs associated with restructuring and reorganization activities;
- Termination costs; and
- Income/(losses) from discontinued operations.
Legal and litigation costs:
- Net legal costs related to the settlement of litigation, government investigations and other disputes (excluding internal legal team costs).
Other:
- Net income tax credit (being income tax, interest and estimated penalties) related to the settlement of certain tax positions with the Canadian revenue authorities; and
- Costs associated with AbbVie's terminated offer for Shire, including costs of employee retention awards.
Depreciation, which is included in Cost of product sales, R&D and SG&A costs in our US GAAP results, has been separately disclosed for the presentation of 2016 and 2015 Non GAAP earnings.
--------------------------------------------------
(1) Non GAAP EBITDA (as calculated on page 21 of this announcement) as a percentage of product sales, excluding royalties and other revenues.
Cash generation represents net cash provided by operating activities, excluding up-front and milestone payments for in-licensed and acquired products, tax and interest payments.
Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities, excluding up-front and milestone payments for in-licensed and acquired products, but including capital expenditure in the ordinary course of business.
Non GAAP net debt represents US GAAP cash and cash equivalents less US GAAP short and long term borrowings and other debt.
A reconciliation of Non GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measure under US GAAP is presented on pages 19 to 22.
Growth at CER, which is a Non GAAP measure, is computed by restating 2016 results using average 2015 foreign exchange rates for the relevant period.
Average exchange rates used by Shire for Q1 2016 were $1.43:£1.00 and $1.09:€1.00 (2015: $1.54:£1.00 and $1.15:€1.00).
