2015 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK
Ongoing Internal Manufacturing Investigation
Beginning on January 28, 2015, during standard quality inspections performed in accordance with customary procedures, the company discovered foreign particles in a limited number of vials in two manufactured lots of BioThrax. In order to determine the source of the foreign particles, the company has been investigating its operations as well as those of its suppliers and contract manufacturers. Under the company’s quality standards, these two BioThrax lots will be rejected. Currently, there is no evidence that any other BioThrax lots have been affected, but as a precautionary measure, the company has quarantined 13 additional lots in inventory pending the findings of its investigation. It is the company’s goal to complete this investigation within the next 60 days. Consequently, no BioThrax deliveries will be made in the first quarter. Based upon current information and depending on the disposition of the quarantined lots, the impact on previously forecasted 2015 BioThrax revenues is anticipated to be between $0 and $65 million. This ongoing investigation does not impact any of the company’s other products or manufacturing operations, including the company’s Building 55 operations and plans for licensure. Furthermore, there is no current evidence that product in distribution is impacted. Since the investigation is ongoing and the full scope of the issue has not been determined with certainty, the actual impact may be greater than anticipated. As the company is unable to definitively assess the impact to 2015 financial results, it is suspending previously issued 2015 guidance. Guidance will be forthcoming following completion of the ongoing investigation.

Contracts, Grants and Collaborations
For Q4 2014, contracts, grants and collaborations revenue was $28.5 million, an increase of 129% as compared to 2013. The increase was primarily due to development funding for product development programs that were acquired in Q1 2014.
Contracts, grants and collaborations revenue consist primarily of reimbursements paid by the US government for research and development expenditures for the company’s biodefense programs. This revenue also includes license fees and collaboration-related revenues associated with development partnerships the company has established with third parties.
Operating Expenses
Cost of Product Sales and Contract Manufacturing
For Q4 2014, cost of product sales and contract manufacturing was $32.5 million, an increase of 67% as compared to 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to product and contract manufacturing costs associated with additional operations acquired in Q1 2014.
Research and Development
For Q4 2014, gross research and development (R&D) expenses were $39.0 million, an increase of 30% as compared to 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to additional R&D expenditures associated with product development programs that were acquired in Q1 2014. Gross R&D expenses include contract service costs and development expenses related to product candidates, technology platforms and manufacturing capabilities in both the Biodefense and Biosciences divisions.
Net R&D expenses, which are more representative of the company’s actual out-of-pocket investment in product development, are calculated as gross research and development expenses less contracts, grants and collaboration revenues and the net loss attributable to non-controlling interest. For Q4 2014, net R&D expenses were $10.5 million, a decrease of 40% as compared to 2013.

(III) Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
This press release contains three financial measures (Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted EBITDA) that are considered “non-GAAP” financial measures under applicable Securities & Exchange Commission rules and regulations. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The company’s definition of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Adjusted Net Income adjusts for specified items that can be highly variable or difficult to predict, or reflect the non-cash impact of charges resulting from purchase accounting. EBITDA reflects net income excluding the impact of depreciation, amortization, interest expense and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes specified items that can be highly variable and the non-cash impact of certain purchase accounting adjustments. The company views these non-GAAP financial measures as a means to facilitate management’s financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of the company’s historical operating results and comparison to competitors’ operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measure, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the company’s business.
The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depend upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the company’s reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety.
