Item 2.02. Results of Operation and Financial Condition.
On February 29, 2016, the Registrant issued an earnings release announcing its financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015 (the "Earnings Release"). A copy of the Earnings Release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
The Earnings Release includes financial measures that are not in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We refer to these measures as non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Earnings Release refers to statements of operations amounts, including adjusted diluted earnings per share amounts, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted effective tax rate and pro forma adjusted EBITDA.
We define adjusted diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) amounts as diluted EPS amounts, adjusted for certain upfront and milestone payments to partners; acquisition-related and integration items, including transaction costs, earn-out payments or adjustments, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and bridge financing costs; cost reduction and integration-related initiatives such as separation benefits, retention payments, other exit costs and certain costs associated with integrating an acquired company's operations; excess costs that will be eliminated pursuant to integration plans; asset impairment charges; amortization of intangible assets; inventory step-up recorded as part of our acquisitions; certain non-cash interest expense; litigation-related and other contingent matters; gains or losses from early termination of debt and hedging activities; foreign currency gains or losses on intercompany financing arrangements; and certain other items that we believe do not reflect our core operating performance; the tax effect of the pre-tax adjustments mentioned above at applicable tax rates; the tax savings from acquired tax attributes; and certain other tax items.
We define adjusted gross margin as total revenues, less cost of revenues, adjusted for amortization of intangible assets; certain upfront and milestone payments to partners; certain cost reduction and integration-related initiatives; inventory step-up recorded as part of our acquisitions; certain excess costs that will be eliminated pursuant to integration plans and certain other items that we believe do not reflect our core operating performance.
We define adjusted operating expense as operating expenses, adjusted for certain upfront and milestone payments to partners; acquisition-related and integration items, including transaction costs, earn-out payments or adjustments, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and bridge financing costs; cost reduction and integration-related initiatives such as separation benefits, retention payments, other exit costs and certain costs associated with integrating an acquired company's operations; excess costs that will be eliminated pursuant to integration plans; asset impairment charges; litigation-related and other contingent matters; and certain other items that we believe do not reflect our core operating performance.
We define adjusted interest expense as interest expense, net, adjusted for additional non-cash interest expense related to our 1.75% convertible senior subordinated notes and debt abandonment costs.
We define adjusted effective tax rate as the effective tax rate on adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted for certain upfront and milestone payments to partners; acquisition-related and integration items, including transaction costs, earn-out payments or adjustments, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and bridge financing costs; cost reduction and integration-related initiatives such as separation benefits, retention payments, other exit costs and certain costs associated with integrating an acquired company's operations; excess costs that will be eliminated pursuant to integration plans; asset impairment charges; amortization of intangible assets; inventory step-up recorded as part of our acquisitions; non-cash interest expense; litigation-related and other contingent matters; gains or losses from early termination of debt and hedging activities; foreign currency gains or losses on intercompany financing arrangements; and certain other items that we believe do not reflect our core operating performance; the adjusted effective tax rate also reflects tax savings from acquired tax attributes and certain other tax items.
We define EBITDA as net (loss) income before interest expense, net; income tax; depreciation and amortization and inventory step-up amortization recorded as part of our acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by excluding other (income) expense, net; stock-based compensation; certain upfront and milestone payments to partners; acquisition-related and integration items, including transaction costs, earn-out payments or adjustments, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and bridge financing costs; cost reduction and integration-related initiatives such as separation benefits, retention payments, other exit costs and certain costs associated with integrating an acquired company's operations; excess costs that will be eliminated pursuant to integration plans; asset impairment charges; litigation-related and other contingent matters; gains or losses from early termination of debt and hedging activities; discontinued operations, net of tax and certain other items that we believe do not reflect our core operating performance. Pro forma adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by including projected synergies from the recent Par acquisition.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. We refer to these non-GAAP financial measures in making operating decisions because we believe they provide meaningful supplemental information
regarding our operational performance. For instance, we believe that these measures facilitate internal comparisons to our historical operating results and comparisons to competitors’ results. We believe these measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency related to supplemental information used in our financial and operational decision-making. In addition, we have historically reported similar financial measures to our investors and believe that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in our current financial reporting. Further, we believe that these measures may be useful to investors as we are aware that certain of our significant stockholders utilize these measures to evaluate our financial performance. Finally, adjusted diluted EPS is used by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors in assessing the performance and compensation of substantially all of our employees, including our executive officers.
Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in the Earnings Release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided with the financial statements included in the Earnings Release and within the quarterly Earnings Presentation available in the Investor Relations section of the Endo website at http://www.endo.com.
However, with the exception of projected adjusted diluted EPS, we have not provided a quantitative reconciliation of projected non-GAAP measures including adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating expenses and adjusted effective tax rate. Not all of the information necessary for quantitative reconciliation is available to us at this time without unreasonable efforts. This is due primarily to variability and difficulty in making accurate detailed forecasts and projections. Accordingly, we do not believe that reconciling information for such projected figures would be meaningful.
The information in this Item 2.02 and in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information contained in this Item 2.02 and in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be incorporated into any registration statement or other document filed by the Registrant with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

U.S. BRANDED PHARMACEUTICALS
During fourth quarter 2015, the U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals business unit continued to support growth for prioritized products including XIAFLEX®, extended the exclusive licensing agreement for Voltaren® Gel through 2023 and secured regulatory approval and prepared for the commercial launch of BELBUCA™.
Fourth quarter 2015 U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals results include:
• | Revenues of $379 million, a 54 percent increase compared to fourth quarter 2014; this increase was primarily attributable to the strategic addition of Auxilium Pharmaceuticals. |
• | Net sales of Voltaren® Gel increased 24 percent compared to fourth quarter 2014; this increase was attributable to higher volumes resulting from increased sales and marketing efforts. |
• | Net sales of LIDODERM® increased 1 percent compared to fourth quarter 2014; this increase was primarily attributable to net price gains in the quarter and lower return reserves. |
U.S. GENERIC PHARMACEUTICALS
During the fourth quarter 2015, the U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals business unit focused on the integration of Par Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc. and continued to advance key manufacturing, quality, commercial and R&D initiatives to support its organic growth objectives.
2
Fourth quarter 2015 U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals results include:
• | Revenues of $609 million, an 81 percent increase compared to fourth quarter 2014; this increase was primarily attributable to growth from the addition of sales from the Company's September 2015 acquisition of Par, as well as underlying growth of certain products. |
• | Compared to previous 2015 expectations, fourth quarter revenues in U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals were unfavorably impacted by increased pricing pressure due to increased competition across pain and commoditized products within legacy Qualitest and certain non-recurring charges. |
INTERNATIONAL PHARMACEUTICALS
As part of Endo's planned expansion of its International Pharmaceuticals business unit and to further diversify the Company's financial profile, the Company recently closed two strategic transactions designed to increase focus on core pharmaceuticals within its Litha Group. This included the acquisition of a broad product and R&D portfolio from the Aspen Group, which closed in October 2015, and the strategic divestiture of a portfolio of non-core products, which closed in February 2016.
Fourth quarter 2015 International Pharmaceuticals results include:
• | Revenues of $85 million, a 7 percent increase over fourth quarter 2014 or a 24 percent increase excluding an unfavorable currency impact of $14 million; this increase was primarily attributable to sales growth in Mexico. |
2016 Financial Guidance
For the full twelve months ended December 31, 2016, at current exchange rates, Endo is providing revenue guidance and updating its adjusted diluted EPS guidance from continuing operations. The Company estimates:
• | Total revenues to be between $4.32 billion and $4.52 billion; |
• | Reported (GAAP) EPS from continuing operations to be between $2.25 and $2.60; |
• | Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations to be between $5.85 and $6.20; and |
• | Cash flow from operations is expected to support the Company’s stated goal of de-levering to 3 to 4 times net debt to adjusted EBITDA in the second half of 2016. |
The Company’s 2016 financial guidance is based on the following assumptions:
• | Adjusted gross margin of approximately 63% to 65%; |
• | Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenues to be approximately 19.5% to 20.5%; |
• | Adjusted interest expense of approximately $455 million; |
• | Adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 9% to 11%; and |
3
• | Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations assume full year adjusted diluted shares outstanding of approximately 224 million shares. |
Other Updates
As of December 31, 2015, the Company had $272.3 million in unrestricted cash; net debt of $8.3 billion and a net debt to pro forma adjusted EBITDA ratio of 4.37.
During the fourth quarter 2015, the Company recorded the following non-cash impairment charges:
• | $85.8 million related to Paladin goodwill driven by the loss of exclusivity of certain products; |
• | $38.4 million related to legacy Qualitest products as part of the continued portfolio optimization process with the integration of Par Pharmaceutical; and |
• | $12.5 million, net primarily related to the abandonment of STENDRA®. |
During the fourth quarter 2015, the Company recorded an $834.0 million aggregate pre-tax charge to increase its estimated product liability accrual for vaginal mesh cases. This product liability accrual increase includes $401 million attributable to removing the reduction factor assumption previously included in the Company’s estimates based on the actual number of claims processed and the lack of any meaningful reduction factor observed to date. The accrual increase also includes $433 million primarily related to the execution of additional Master Settlement Agreements in 2016. During the fourth quarter 2015, the Company recorded a $997 million tax benefit predominantly relating to a worthless stock deduction directly attributable to product liability losses. This tax benefit includes $297 million recorded in discontinued operations and $700 million in continuing operations. The Company anticipates that it will receive a federal income tax refund in 2016 from carrying back losses incurred in 2015 and expects additional benefits from reduced federal income taxes in 2016 and future years.
In November 2015, Endo entered into a program to repurchase up to $250 million of its common stock under a previously authorized $2.5 billion repurchase plan. The purchase of $250 million of common stock was completed by December 31, 2015. In December 2015, the Company redeemed all $400 million of aggregate principal amount outstanding 7.00% Senior Notes due 2020.
In 2015, the Company divested its AMS Men’s Health business and launched a strategic process for AMS Women’s Health - now ASTORA Women’s Health. While that process resulted in formal bids for ASTORA, Endo determined in the first quarter 2016 that it will wind down ASTORA business operations in order to reduce the potential for product liability related to future mesh implants. Endo will conduct a wind down process and work efficiently to support physicians in transitioning to alternative products. The Company will cease business operations for ASTORA by March 31, 2016.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and Non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share amounts are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted earnings per share amounts. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, we stress that these are Non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, Non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components (unlike U.S. GAAP net income 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. See Endo's Current Report on Form 8-K furnished today to the Securities and Exchange Commission for an explanation of Endo's reasons for using non-GAAP measures.

Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the statements by Mr. De Silva and other statements regarding product development, market potential, expected growth and regulatory approvals, as well as Endo’s earnings per share 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; 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; 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 results of any pending or future litigation, investigations or claims; 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.
