Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties which may cause results to differ materially from uncertainties, those set forth in the statements. The forward-looking statements may include statements regarding product development, product potential, future financial and operating results, and other statements that are not historical facts. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements: the impact of pharmaceutical  industry regulation and health care legislation; Sucampo’s ability to accurately predict future market conditions; dependence on the effectiveness of Sucampo’s patents and other protections for innovative products; the risk of new and changing regulation and health policies in the US and internationally and the exposure to litigation and/or regulatory actions. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from those projected. Sucampo undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Forward-looking statements in this presentation should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect Sucampo’s business, particularly those mentioned in the risk factors and cautionary statements in Sucampo’s Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2011, which the Company incorporates by reference. 2

Sucampo Snapshot A commercial-stage, global biopharmaceutical company since 1996 2 FDA-approved drugs based on our proprietary prostone technology AMITIZA ® (lubiprostone) in Gastroenterology market RESCULA® (unoprostone isopropyl) in Ophthalmology market The therapeutic potential of prostones was first identified by Ryuji Ueno, M.D., Ph.D., Ph.D., Sucampo Pharmaceuticals' chairman and chief executive officer. Dr. Ueno and Sachiko Kuno, Ph.D., founded Sucampo Pharmaceuticals in 1996 AMITIZA has helped 6 million patients over 6 years combat the effects of chronic idiopathic constipation and irritable bowel syndrome with constipation New indications for current areas New global markets and diseases Deep and promising pipeline 3

Slide 5
Proprietary Prostone Technology Prostones are naturally occurring compounds that act locally to restore injured cells and tissues Prostones possess a unique mechanism of action as potent and specific activators of ion channels. Ion channels regulate the flow of specific ions into and out of cells. This regulation is key to the functioning of cells, such as metabolic processes and cell survival There is evidence that prostones have anti-inflammatory properties, prevent cell death, and restore cells and organs Ion channels are ubiquitous in the body, and targeted dosing of prostones may have broad applicability in many degenerative diseases Sucampo has pioneered the field of prostones Broad patent estate (>580 issued patents) Developed synthetic analogs of naturally occurring prostones, which are more potent, selective and stable than naturally occurring prostones, enabling their use as drugs The safety profile of prostone compounds is excellent, as demonstrated by the clinical safety record of AMITIZA and RESCULA 5
 
 

 
 
Slide 6
Sucampo Is a Leader in Gastroenterology: AMITIZA Gastroenterology Areas of Focus: Chronic Idiopathic Constipation (CIC) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) CIC Constipation is characterized by infrequent stools, difficult stool passage, or both1 CIC affects an estimated 14% of the US adult population (33 million)2 Constipation accounts for 92,000 hospitalizations in the US each year3 Studies have found that severe constipation is associated with increased cardiovascular risk in women4,5 IBS IBS is defined as abdominal pain or discomfort that occurs in association with altered bowel habits over a period of at least 3 months1 IBS affects an estimated 15% of the adult population (45 million)6 IBS with constipation (IBS-C) affects approx. 5% of the adult population (12 million)6 Direct and indirect costs of IBS care in the US are estimated at about $20 billion per year6 Studies have documented that patients with IBS consume more than 50% more health care resources than those without IBS7 Source: See References 1-7 6
 
 

 
 
Slide 7
Sucampo Is an Emerging Player in Ophthalmology: RESCULA Ophthalmology Area of Focus: Glaucoma Glaucoma is a group of ocular diseases with various causes that ultimately are associated with a progressive optic neuropathy leading to loss of vision function8 Glaucoma is an age-related disease Glaucoma is the second leading cause of bilateral blindness worldwide9 It will affect an estimated 79.6 million people worldwide by 20209 As of 2009, 120,000 people in the United States were blind because of glaucoma10 An estimated 2.2 million people had the most common form of glaucoma – OAG – expected to increase to 3.36 million in 202011 Source: See References 8-11 7
 
 

 
 
Slide 8
Sucampo’s Prostone Technology Has Resulted in Two FDA-Approved Products AMITIZA® (lubiprostone) for Chronic Idiopathic Constipation (CIC) in adults and Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C) in adult women Product Overview AMITIZA is a chloride ion channel activator FDA approved and marketed for CIC in adults and IBS-C in adult women; sNDA for OIC filed July 2012 Activation of this channel in cells within the intestinal tract results in fluid secretion and repair of epithelial cell barriers which are essential to the normal function of the digestive track RESCULA® (unoprostone isopropyl) for the lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP) in open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension in patients who are intolerant of or insufficiently responsive to other IOP-lowering medications Product Overview RESCULA is a potassium ion channel activator FDA approved for the lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP) in primary open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension Activation of this channel relaxes contractile cells, resulting in decreased intraocular pressure which is a known risk factor for glaucoma-associated vision loss 8
