Financial Highlights for the Third Quarter of 2012 (unaudited)

 

·                  Cubist’s strong double-digit revenue growth continued in the third quarter, with total net revenues up 18% over the same period in 2011. Q3 2012 total net revenues were $238.2 million, compared to $201.7 million in Q3 2011.

·                  U.S. CUBICIN® (daptomycin for injection) net product revenues increased 12% to $208.3 million from $186.4 million in Q3 2011 — marking the second consecutive quarter to exceed $200 million in revenue; CUBICIN international revenues increased 22% to $12.0 million, compared to $9.8 million in Q3 2011.

·                  Non-GAAP adjusted operating income increased 9% to $77.7 million, compared to $71.2 million in Q3 2011; GAAP operating income was $70.4 million, compared to $69.1 million in Q3 2011.

·                  Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) decreased 13% to $0.68, compared to $0.78 in Q3 2011; GAAP diluted EPS was $0.55, compared to $0.33 per share in Q3 2011.

 

“2012 continues to position us well as we drive toward our Building Blocks of Growth five-year goals,” said Michael Bonney, CEO of Cubist. “Our market strength and experience, backed by solid business fundamentals, have allowed us to deliver another quarter of strong growth. With revenue growth of 18% and strong bottom line growth, we’re building on our momentum as we continue to deliver important products to our customers and drive value for our shareholders.”

 

Service revenues for DIFICID® (fidaxomicin) for the third quarter were $7.2 million. This includes $3.5 million of profit sharing revenue from Optimer Pharmaceuticals, Inc., reflecting over-performance versus revenue goals for the first year of sales of DIFICID under the Company’s co-promotion agreement. ENTEREG® (alvimopan), acquired through our acquisition of Adolor Corporation in December 2011, net product revenues were $10.1 million in the third quarter of 2012.

 

As of September 30, 2012, Cubist had $911.4 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments. The total number of Cubist’s common shares outstanding as of September 30, 2012, was 64,377,426.

 

Recent Company Highlights

 

·                  In October 2012, Cubist submitted applications to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for QIDP (Qualified Infectious Disease Product Designation) under the Generating Antibiotic Incentives Now (GAIN) act for its late-stage investigational antibiotics, CXA-201 (ceftolozane/tazobactam) and CB-315.  A

response from the FDA is expected within 60 days of submission.  If granted, the designations would respectively qualify CXA-201 and CB-315 for a five year extension of Hatch-Waxman exclusivity, priority review and eligibility for fast-track status.

 

·                  On October 16, 2012, Cubist announced plans to present posters on selected studies at IDWeek. The studies focus on CXA-201, as well as on CUBICIN.

 

·                  In September 2012, at the 52nd Annual Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy (ICAAC), Cubist presented posters on CXA-201 and CB-315, as well as CUBICIN.

 

·                  On September 4, 2012, Cubist announced the appointment of Patrick Vink, M.D., as Senior Vice President and General Manager of its International Business.

 

“There exists growing recognition of the imperative need for important new medicines to treat patients in the acute care/hospital setting,” said Bonney. “With Cubist’s outstanding late-stage pipeline and significant experience and insights into the market, we are well positioned to make meaningful improvements in the lives of patients.”

 

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS and non-GAAP adjusted operating income exclude non-cash or non-operational activities.  As a result, Cubist uses these measures to assess and analyze its operational results and trends and to make financial and operational decisions.  Cubist also believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide greater transparency regarding Cubist’s operating performance.  These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to measurements required by GAAP, such as operating income, net income and EPS, and should not be considered measures of Cubist’s liquidity.  In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP information provided by other companies.  Reconciliations between non-GAAP financial measures and GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release after the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
