MEDIVATION REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

AND PROVIDES CORPORATE UPDATE

—$14.1 Million in Net Sales Reflect First 12 Business Days of XTANDI Launch—

— Conference Call Today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time —

San Francisco, CA – November 9, 2012 – Medivation, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDVN) today provided a corporate update and reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012. Net sales of XTANDI® (enzalutamide) capsules for the quarter, as reported by Astellas Pharma Inc., were $14.1 million, which represents the first 12 business days of sales following availability of XTANDI for shipment on September 13, 2012.

“The rapid approval and subsequent U.S. launch of XTANDI in the third quarter marked a transformative time for Medivation as we made our transition into a commercial company,” said David Hung, M.D., co-founder, president and chief executive officer of Medivation, Inc. “With our partner Astellas, we look forward to reporting progress on the future growth and use of XTANDI to treat patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have received docetaxel, while we continue to explore enzalutamide’s potential utility in earlier prostate cancer indications and in breast cancer.”

Recent Developments

XTANDI® (enzalutamide) capsules

 

 

   

Received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for XTANDI on August 31, 2012, three months ahead of the goal date set by the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), for the treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have received docetaxel.

 

   

Announced availability of XTANDI in the U.S. on September 13, 2012 for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have received docetaxel. Medivation and Astellas are jointly responsible for commercialization and development of XTANDI in the U.S., and share equally in the costs (subject to certain exceptions), profits and losses arising from U.S. development and commercialization of XTANDI.

 

   

European Medicines Agency (EMA) accepted for review the XTANDI Marketing Authorisation Application (MAA) seeking approval to market XTANDI in Europe for the treatment of men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have received docetaxel.


Enzalutamide Clinical Development Program

 

   

Publication of the Phase 3 AFFIRM trial results on August 15, 2012 in The New England Journal of Medicine in a paper entitled “Increased Survival with Enzalutamide in Prostate Cancer After Chemotherapy.”

 

   

Presented data at the 2012 European Society of Medical Oncology Annual Meeting. The data are from the Phase 3 AFFIRM trial on the effect of enzalutamide on pain-related secondary endpoints and a post-hoc analysis of the survival impact of baseline corticosteroid use in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have received docetaxel.

 

   

Completed targeted enrollment of approximately 1,700 patients in the Phase 3 PREVAIL trial of enzalutamide in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer who have not yet received chemotherapy. The co-primary endpoints in this trial are overall survival and progression-free survival.

 

   

Continued patient enrollment in two trials comparing enzalutamide’s effects on progression-free-survival when compared head-to-head versus bicalutamide, the most commonly used anti-androgen, in men who have progressed following medical castration with LHRH analog therapy or surgical castration. TERRAIN is enrolling approximately 370 men with metastatic disease primarily in Europe; STRIVE is enrolling approximately 400 men with either metastatic or non-metastatic disease primarily in the U.S.

 

   

Completed an open-label clinical trial designed to evaluate the effect of enzalutamide in 67 men with advanced prostate cancer who have not had any previous hormonal therapies. The primary endpoint in this trial is prostate specific antigen response. Study results will be reported at an upcoming medical meeting.

 

   

Continued patient enrollment in an open-label clinical trial evaluating enzalutamide as neoadjuvant therapy in approximately 50 men prior to prostatectomy. The primary endpoint in this trial is pathological complete response rate.

 

   

Completed patient enrollment in an open-label study evaluating the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of enzalutamide when dosed in combination with docetaxel in 18 men with castration-resistant prostate cancer.

 

   

Continued patient enrollment in an open-label Phase 1 study in patients with breast cancer. The study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of enzalutamide in breast cancer patients who have failed prior hormonal therapy.

Corporate Developments

 

   

Effected a 2-for-1 forward split of all shares of Medivation common stock. Medivation’s stock began trading on a post-split basis on the NASDAQ Global Market on September 24, 2012.

Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

XTANDI net sales for the third quarter of 2012, as reported by Astellas, were $14.1 million, representing 12 business days of sales following availability of XTANDI for shipment on September 13, 2012. Medivation’s collaboration revenue for the third quarter of 2012 was $64.8 million, which consisted of two components: collaboration revenue attributable to U.S. XTANDI sales ($7.1 million), and collaboration revenue attributable to up-front and development milestone payments from the Company’s corporate partner Astellas and former partner Pfizer ($57.7 million).


Medivation received and recognized $45 million of development milestone payments from Astellas during the third quarter of 2012, which are included in collaboration revenue. These payments consisted of $10 million upon the FDA’s acceptance for review of the XTANDI New Drug Application (NDA), $30 million upon the FDA’s approval of the XTANDI NDA, and $5 million upon the EMA acceptance of the XTANDI MAA for review. Medivation is required to share ten percent of all up-front and development milestone payments received from Astellas with UCLA, the licensor of the enzalutamide technology.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter were $64.4 million, compared with total operating expenses of $26.4 million for the same period in 2011. These figures include non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $7.6 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2012, compared with $3.2 million for the same period in 2011.

Medivation reported a net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 of $4.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $10.0 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the same period in 2011, adjusted on a post-split basis.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at September 30, 2012 totaled $340.4 million, compared with $145.1 million at December 31, 2011.

2012 Financial Outlook

Medivation currently expects total operating expenses for 2012, net of cost-sharing payments from Astellas, to be between $205 and $215 million, approximately $25 million of which consists of non-cash stock-based compensation expense. This increase from prior guidance of between $183 and $198 million is due primarily to increased compensation and royalty expense in 2012 resulting from XTANDI’s approval in the U.S. approximately one quarter earlier than expected. Medivation continues to expect to incur approximately $15 million in capital expenditures in 2012, primarily related to leasehold improvements at its new corporate and commercial headquarters facilities.
