(1)

Reported Diluted Net Loss per Share from continuing operations is computed based on weighted average shares outstanding and, if there is income from continuing operations during the period, the dilutive impact of ordinary share equivalents outstanding during the period. In the case of Adjusted Diluted Weighted Average Shares, Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations is used in determining whether to include such dilutive impact.

"In 2019, Endo delivered stronger than expected performance during the fourth quarter and for the full year, driven by continued double-digit percentage revenue growth in our Sterile Injectables segment and in the Specialty Products Portfolio of our Branded Pharmaceuticals segment, and as a result of our dedication to operational execution," said Paul Campanelli, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer at Endo. "For the full year, our Sterile Injectables segment exceeded $1 billion in revenue and our Specialty Products Portfolio exceeded $500 million in revenue, demonstrating progress on our strategic priority of expanding and investing in these businesses. Additionally, during the fourth quarter, the U.S. FDA accepted our original Biologics License Application for our CCH for Cellulite product and we launched five products."

"Looking ahead to 2020, Endo intends to build upon the success of the past year. We are focused on continuing to invest in our core areas of growth as part of our multi-year strategic plan, while being responsive to the current external environment under the leadership of Blaise Coleman, Endo's new President and Chief Executive Officer."

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Total revenues were $765 million in fourth-quarter 2019 compared to $786 million during the same period in 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to competitive pressures in the Generic Pharmaceuticals segment and the Established Products portfolio of the Branded Pharmaceuticals segment, partially offset by continued strong growth in the Sterile Injectables segment and the Specialty Products portfolio of the Branded Pharmaceuticals segment.

Reported loss from continuing operations in fourth-quarter 2019 was $208 million compared to reported loss from continuing operations of $265 million during the same period in 2018. This result was primarily attributable to a decrease in asset impairment charges. Reported diluted net loss per share from continuing operations in fourth-quarter 2019 was $0.92 compared to reported diluted net loss per share from continuing operations of $1.18 in fourth-quarter 2018.

Adjusted income from continuing operations in fourth-quarter 2019 was $171 million compared to $175 million in fourth-quarter 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower adjusted gross margin due to lower sales. Adjusted diluted net income per share from continuing operations in fourth-quarter 2019 was $0.74 compared to $0.75 in fourth-quarter 2018.

BRANDED PHARMACEUTICALS

Fourth-quarter 2019 Branded Pharmaceuticals revenues were $226 million compared to $230 million in fourth-quarter 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to ongoing generic competition in the Established Products portfolio, offset by continued strong growth in the Specialty Products portfolio.

Specialty Products revenues increased 15% to $149 million in fourth-quarter 2019 compared to $130 million in fourth-quarter 2018, primarily driven by the continued strong performance of XIAFLEX^®. Sales of XIAFLEX^® increased 27% to $102 million compared to $80 million in fourth-quarter 2018, primarily attributable to demand growth in both the Peyronie's Disease and Dupuytren's Contracture indications driven by continued commercial execution and investment in promotional activities.

In November 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration accepted the Company's original Biologics License Application (BLA) for its Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum (CCH) product for the treatment of cellulite in the buttocks. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), or target action date for the BLA, has been set for July 6, 2020.

STERILE INJECTABLES

Fourth-quarter 2019 Sterile Injectables revenues were $285 million, an increase of 10% compared to $259 million in fourth-quarter 2018. This increase reflects the continued strong growth of VASOSTRICT^® and ADRENALIN^®.

GENERIC PHARMACEUTICALS

Fourth-quarter 2019 Generic Pharmaceuticals revenues were $226 million, a decrease of 14% compared to $264 million in fourth-quarter 2018. This performance was primarily attributable to continued competitive pressure on commoditized generic products. Partially offsetting the decrease were the impacts of certain recent product launches. During fourth-quarter 2019, the Generic Pharmaceuticals segment launched five products.

INTERNATIONAL PHARMACEUTICALS

Fourth-quarter 2019 International Pharmaceuticals revenues were $29 million, a decrease of 16% compared to fourth-quarter 2018. This decrease was primarily due to ongoing generic competition.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company utilizes certain financial measures that are not prescribed by or prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). These Non-GAAP financial measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for GAAP net income and its components and diluted net income per share amounts. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, the company stresses that these are Non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations and its components (unlike GAAP net income from continuing operations and its components) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. These Non-GAAP financial measures are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. However, the Company does not provide reconciliations of projected non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures, nor does it provide comparable projected GAAP financial measures for such projected non-GAAP financial measures. The Company is unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for asset impairments, contingent consideration adjustments, legal settlements, gain / loss on extinguishment of debt, adjustments to inventory and other charges reflected in the reconciliation of historic numbers, the amounts of which could be significant.

See Endo's Current Report on Form 8-K furnished today to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for an explanation of Endo's non-GAAP financial measures.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the statements by Mr. Campanelli, as well as other statements regarding product development, market potential, corporate strategy, optimization efforts and restructurings, timing, closing and expected benefits and value from any acquisition, expected growth and regulatory approvals, together with Endo's net income per share from continuing operations amounts, product net sales, revenue forecasts and any other statements that refer to Endo's expected, estimated or anticipated future results. Because forecasts are inherently estimates that cannot be made with precision, Endo's performance at times differs materially from its estimates and targets, and Endo often does not know what the actual results will be until after the end of the applicable reporting period. Therefore, Endo will not report or comment on its progress during a current quarter except through public announcement. Any statement made by others with respect to progress during a current quarter cannot be attributed to Endo.

All forward-looking statements in this press release reflect Endo's current analysis of existing trends and information and represent Endo's judgment only as of the date of this press release. Actual results may differ materially from current expectations based on a number of factors affecting Endo's businesses, including, among other things, the following: changing competitive, market and regulatory conditions; changes in legislation; Endo's ability to obtain and maintain adequate protection for its intellectual property rights; the timing and uncertainty of the results of both the research and development and regulatory processes, including regulatory decisions, product recalls, withdrawals and other unusual items; domestic and foreign health care and cost containment reforms, including government pricing, tax and reimbursement policies; technological advances and patents obtained by competitors; the performance, including the approval, introduction, and consumer and physician acceptance of new products and the continuing acceptance of currently marketed products; the effectiveness of advertising and other promotional campaigns; the timely and successful implementation of strategic initiatives; the timing or results of any pending or future litigation, investigations or claims or actual or contingent liabilities, settlement discussions, negotiations or other adverse proceedings; unfavorable publicity regarding the misuse of opioids; timing and uncertainty of any acquisition, including the possibility that various closing conditions may not be satisfied or waived, uncertainty surrounding the successful integration of any acquired business and failure to achieve the expected financial and commercial results from such acquisition; the uncertainty associated with the identification of and successful consummation and execution of external corporate development initiatives and strategic partnering transactions; and Endo's ability to obtain and successfully maintain a sufficient supply of products to meet market demand in a timely manner. In addition, U.S. and international economic conditions, including higher unemployment, political instability, financial hardship, consumer confidence and debt levels, taxation, changes in interest and currency exchange rates, international relations, capital and credit availability, the status of financial markets and institutions, fluctuations or devaluations in the value of sovereign government debt, as well as the general impact of continued economic volatility, can materially affect Endo's results. Therefore, the reader is cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. Endo expressly disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements except as required to do so by law.

Additional information concerning the above-referenced risk factors and other risk factors can be found in press releases issued by Endo, as well as Endo's public periodic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and with securities regulators in Canada, including the discussion under the heading "Risk Factors" in Endo's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
