NPS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES (1) Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by NPS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NPS Pharma or the Company) in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The condensed consolidated financial statements are comprised of the
financial statements of NPS Pharma and its subsidiaries collectively referred to as the Company. In management's opinion, the interim financial data presented includes all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring items) necessary for fair presentation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain information required by U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles has been condensed or omitted in accordance with rules and regulations of the SEC. Operating results for the three or six months ended June 30,
2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period or for the year ending December 31, 2014. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year
ended December 31, 2013, included in NPS Pharma's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to reporting of the assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period
in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated all events and transactions since June 30, 2014. The Company did not have any material recognized or non-recognized subsequent events. (2) Income (Loss) Per Common Share The following table sets forth the components of basic and diluted income per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2014 due to net income in the three month
period (in thousands, except per share data): 7
Basic net income (loss) per common share is the amount of income (loss) for the period divided by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting
period. Diluted income (loss) per common share is the amount of income (loss) for the period plus interest expense on convertible debt divided by the sum of weighted average shares of
common stock outstanding during the reporting period and weighted average shares that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential
common shares. Potential common shares of approximately 1.4 million and 6.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively and 6.3 million and 8.1 million during the three
and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, that could potentially dilute basic income per share in the future were not included in the computation of diluted income (loss) per share
because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented. Potential dilutive common shares related to convertible debt were approximately 267,000 and 1.6 million during
the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and 3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. Additionally, potential dilutive common shares
related to stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units were 1.1 million and 4.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and 3.3 million and 5.1
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. (3) Fair Value Measurement The Company's financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows: Level 1- Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2- Inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for
similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for
the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market
corroborated inputs). Level 3- Inputs are unobservable and reflect the Company's assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based
on the best information available. Summary of Assets Recorded at Fair Value In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company's financial assets (only marketable investment securities) that are
required to be measured at fair value as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands): 8
As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the fair values of the Company's Level 2 securities were $116.7 million and $132.0 million, respectively. These securities are certificates
of deposit, commercial paper, corporate or government agency debt issued by domestic companies or agencies with an original maturity of less than 18 months. These securities are
currently rated A-1 or higher. The Company's cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices or
broker or dealer quotations for similar assets. These investments are initially valued at the transaction price and subsequently valued utilizing third-party pricing providers or other market
observable data. Data used in the analysis include reportable trades, broker/dealer quotes, bids and offers, benchmark yields and credit spreads. The Company validates the prices
provided by its third-party pricing providers by reviewing their pricing methods, analyzing pricing inputs and confirming that the securities have traded in normally functioning markets. The
Company did not adjust or override any fair value measurements provided by its pricing providers as of June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company did not have any investments in Level 3 securities. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three or six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The carrying amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for certain short-term financial instruments including accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued
expenses, and other liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature, except that the estimated fair value and carrying value of a royalty liability to the Brigham and Women's
Hospital related to sales of cinacalcet HCl using a discounted cash flow model is approximately $3.5 million and $4.6 million, respectively, at June 30, 2014 and $4.3 million and $5.6 million,
respectively, at December 31, 2013. Summary of Liabilities Recorded at Carrying Value The fair and carrying value of our debt instruments are detailed as follows (in thousands): The fair values of the Company's convertible notes were estimated using the (i) terms of the convertible notes; (ii) rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions of the underlying
security; (iii) time until any restriction(s) are released; (iv) fundamental financial and other characteristics of the Company; (v) trading characteristics of the underlying security (exchange,
volume, price, and volatility); and (vi) precedent sale transactions. The fair values of the Company's non-recourse Sensipar notes, recombinant human parathyroid hormone [1-84]
("rhPTH 1-84")-secured debt and Regpara-secured debt were estimated using a discounted cash flow model. Within the hierarchy of fair value measurements, these are
Level 3 fair values. 9
(4) Financial Instruments Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are accounts receivable and marketable investment securities. The majority of the
Company's accounts receivable are payable by pharmaceutical companies and specialty pharmacies and collateral is generally not required from these companies. Substantially all of the
Company's royalty revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were from three licensees and substantially all of the Company's accounts receivable balances at
June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were from three licensees. Substantially all of the Company's product sales revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013
and substantially all of the Company's trade accounts receivable balances at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, were from six specialty pharmacies. The Company's portfolio of
marketable investment securities is subject to concentration limits set within the Company's investment policy that help to mitigate its credit exposure. The following is a summary of the Company's marketable investment securities (in thousands): 10
Marketable investment securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are summarized as follows (in thousands): Summary of Contractual Maturities Maturities of marketable investment securities are as follows at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands): Impairments No impairment losses were recognized through earnings related to available for sale securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Proceeds from Available for Sale Securities The proceeds from maturities and sales of available for sale securities and resulting realized gains and losses, were as follows (in thousands): 11
(5) Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company began to capitalize inventory after the FDA approval of Gattex in December 2012. Inventory is as follows at
June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands): (6) Long-term Debt The following table reflects the carrying value of the Company's long-term debt under various financing arrangements as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands): (a) Convertible Notes On April 8, 2014, the holders of the 5.75% Convertible Notes ("5.75% Convertible Notes") converted the remaining outstanding notes at a conversion price of $5.44 per
share. The Company issued 3.0 million shares pursuant to this conversion and retired the remaining $16.5 million of the outstanding 5.75% Convertible Notes. (b) Non-recourse Debt Sensipar- and Mimpara-Secured Non-recourse Debt As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the outstanding principal balances on Sensipar- and Mimpara-secured non-recourse debt were $40.6 million and $54.4 million,
respectively. The Sensipar- and Mimpara-secured debt is non-recourse to the Company and solely secured and serviced by Sensipar and Mimpara (cinacalcet HCl) royalties. The
Company amended its agreement with Amgen effective September 30, 2011 whereby Amgen advanced $145.0 million of Sensipar and Mimpara royalties to the Company (the
"Sensipar Notes"). The Sensipar Notes accrue interest at an annual rate of 9%, compounded quarterly and payable 45 days after the close of each quarter. The payment of the
royalty advance and discount shall be satisfied solely by Amgen's withholding of royalties and except in the event of a breach of certain customary representations and warranties under the
agreement, the Company will have no obligation to repay any unsettled amount. The Company further amended the agreement with Amgen effective June 29, 2012, limiting the royalty
offset of the royalty advance up to $8.0 million per quarter with royalties in excess of $8.0 million paid to the Company for the respective quarter, thereby extending the royalty advance
repayment period. After the payment of the royalty advance and a 9% per annum discount on the balance of the advance, Amgen will resume paying NPS Pharma all royalties earned
through December 31, 2018. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company classified $7.1 million and $6.7 million, respectively, of the Sensipar Notes as current based on
royalty payments accrued as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Accrued interest on the Sensipar Notes was approximately $442,000 and $592,000 as of June 30, 2014 and
December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $96,000, in September 2011, which are being amortized using the effective interest method. The effective
interest rate on the Sensipar Notes, including debt issuance costs, is approximately 9%. 12
rhPTH 1-84-Secured Non-recourse Debt As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the outstanding principal balances on rhPTH 1-84-secured debt were $42.8 million, respectively. In July 2007, the Company entered into
an agreement (the "2007 DRI Agreement") with DRI Capital ("DRI"), formerly Drug Royalty L.P.3, in which the Company sold to DRI its right to receive future royalty
payments arising from sales of recombinant human parathyroid hormone 1-84 [rDNA origin] ("PTH") under its license agreement with Takeda (the "Takeda License
Agreement"). Under the 2007 DRI Agreement, DRI paid the Company an up-front purchase price of $50.0 million. If and when DRI receives two and a half times the amount paid to
the Company, the 2007 DRI Agreement will terminate and the remainder of the royalties, if any, will revert back to the Company. In connection with the Company's 2007 DRI Agreement,
the Company granted DRI a security interest in its Takeda License Agreement for Preotact and certain of its patents and other intellectual property underlying the Takeda License
Agreement. In the event of a default by NPS Pharma under the 2007 DRI Agreement, DRI would be entitled to enforce its security interest against the property described above. In December 2013, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement (the "Amendment and Restatement") to the 2007 DRI Agreement. Pursuant to the March 18,
2013 Termination and Transition Agreement between NPS Pharma and Takeda (the "Termination and Transition Agreement"), the Takeda License Agreement was terminated
and NPS Pharma re-acquired exclusive rights worldwide, excluding Israel, to develop and commercialize rhPTH 1-84. Preotact is the brand name that Takeda had used to market rhPTH 1-84 for
the treatment of osteoporosis in certain of its licensed territories. NPS Pharma is developing rhPTH 1-84 in the U.S. under the trade name Natpara® for the treatment of
hypoparathyroidism. NPS Pharma filed a Biologic License Application ("BLA") for Natpara with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") in
October 2013. Pursuant to the Amendment and Restatement, (i) DRI has consented to the commercialization of rhPTH 1-84 by the Company, (ii) the terms of the 2007 DRI Agreement
are tolled, and (iii) the parties' rights and obligations regarding PTH and related technology are governed by the Amendment and Restatement. The Company will be required to pay royalties in the mid-single digits to DRI based upon sales of rhPTH 1-84 by the Company and its licensees (if any) worldwide, excluding Israel. The
Company has agreed to undertake certain efforts to commercialize rhPTH 1-84. If the Company does not submit a Marketing Authorization Application to the European Medicines Agency
for rhPTH 1-84 in the European Union by an agreed upon date, DRI will have the right to revoke the consent granted in the Amendment and Restatement, reinstate the 2007 DRI
Agreement, and either cause the Company to enter into a new license agreement with a third party with respect to rhPTH 1-84 on terms that are substantially similar and no more extensive
(when taken as a whole) than the terms contained in the terminated Takeda License Agreement, or negotiate such an agreement on NPS Pharma's behalf. The Company's obligation to pay royalties to DRI under the Amendment and Restatement shall expire on a country-by-country basis upon the later of (i) the last to expire patent
controlled by the Company with claims covering rhPTH 1-84 in such country or (ii) the expiration of any period of regulatory exclusivity applicable to rhPTH 1-84 in such country. The
Company's obligation to pay royalties to DRI under the Amendment and Restatement shall terminate in its entirety once cumulative royalty payments made to DRI by Takeda and the
Company total $125.0 million. As of June 30, 2014, $45.5 million in royalties had been paid to DRI. DRI continues to maintain a security interest in NPS Pharma patents that contain claims covering rhPTH 1-84 and certain other NPS Pharma intellectual property related to rhPTH 1-84.
In the event of a default by NPS Pharma under the Amendment and Restatement, DRI would be entitled to enforce its security interest against NPS Pharma and such intellectual
property. The Company determined the initial up-front purchase price is debt and is being amortized into earnings using the effective interest method over the estimated life. Accrued interest
under the Amendment and Restatement was $3.1 million and $0 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively and is included as a component of other liabilities. The
repayment of the remaining $42.8 million principal is secured solely by future royalty payments arising from sales of rhPTH 1-84 by the Company. The rhPTH 1-84-secured debt is
non-recourse to the Company. 13
REGPARA-Secured Non-recourse Debt As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the outstanding principal balances on REGPARA-secured debt were $33.3 million and $35.2 million, respectively. In February 2010, the
Company entered into an agreement with an affiliate of DRI (the "2010 DRI Agreement"), in which the Company sold to DRI its right to receive future royalty payments arising
from sales of REGPARA® (cinacalcet HC1) under its license agreement with Kyowa Hakko Kirin. Under the 2010 DRI Agreement, DRI paid the Company an upfront
purchase price of $38.4 million. If and when DRI receives two and a half times the amount paid to the Company, the 2010 DRI Agreement will terminate and the remainder of the royalties, if
any, will revert back to the Company. In connection with the 2010 DRI Agreement, the Company granted DRI a security interest in its license agreement with Kyowa Hakko Kirin for
REGPARA and certain of its patents and other intellectual property underlying that agreement. In the event of a default by NPS Pharma under the 2010 DRI Agreement, DRI would be
entitled to enforce its security interest against NPS Pharma and the property described above. The Company classified the initial upfront purchase price as debt which is being amortized
using the effective interest method over the estimated life of approximately 11 years. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company classified $2.2 million and $0, respectively,
of the REGPARA-secured debt as current based on royalty payments accrued as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Accrued interest under the 2010 DRI Agreement was $1.1
million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Through June 30, 2014, $31.9 million has been paid to DRI. The repayment of the remaining $33.3 million principal as of
June 30, 2014, is secured solely by future royalty payments arising from sales of REGPARA by Kyowa Hakko Kirin. The effective interest rate under the 2010 DRI Agreement, including
issuance costs, is approximately 16.0%. The REGPARA-secured debt is non-recourse to the Company. (7) Income Taxes The Company files income tax returns in various jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The statute of limitations for income tax audits in the U.S. will commence upon
utilization of net operating losses and will expire three years from the filing of the tax return. In August 2012, the IRS completed its examination of the Company's U.S. federal income tax
returns for the year ended December 31, 2009. In May 2013, the State of New Jersey completed its examination of the Company's New Jersey income tax returns through the year
ended December 31, 2010. There were no adjustments as a result of these examinations. The Company accounts for penalties or interest related to uncertain tax positions as part of its provision for income taxes. Due to the Company's net operating loss carryforwards,
any adjustment related to a liability would not be expected to result in a cash tax liability. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued for penalties or interest for the U.S. (both federal and
state) as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Assuming the continued existence of a full valuation allowance on the Company's net deferred tax assets, future recognition of any of
the Company's unrecognized tax benefits would not impact the effective tax rate. (8) Commitments and Contingencies The Company has agreed to indemnify, under certain circumstances, certain manufacturers and service providers from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities
arising from services provided by such manufacturers and service providers or from any use, including clinical trials, or sale by the Company or any Company agent of any product supplied
by the manufacturers. The Company has entered into long-term agreements with various third-party contract manufacturers for the production and packaging of the active pharmaceutical
ingredient and drug product. Under the terms of these various agreements, the Company may be required to purchase certain minimum quantities of product each year. (9) Stock Options The Company recognized $3.5 million and $7.6 million of compensation expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $2.1 million and $5.1 million
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, related to all stock based compensation. As of June 30, 2014, there was $34.5 million of total unrecognized
compensation cost related to all unvested share-based compensation arrangements that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.90 years. 14
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company's Board of Directors awarded a total of 1,130,700 performance condition options to certain of the Company's employees.
Vesting of these options is subject to the Company achieving certain performance criteria established at the grant date and the individuals fulfilling a service condition (continued
employment). As of June 30, 2014, the performance criteria of 884,590 of these options had been satisfied and have met the corresponding vesting criteria. The Company recognized $0
and $192,000 of compensation expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $83,000 and $244,000 of compensation expense during the three and six
months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, related to these options. The final performance criteria was not met and therefore the remaining 246,110 options have been forfeited. A summary of activity related to aggregate stock options under all plans is indicated in the following table (in thousands, except per share amounts): (10) Recent Accounting Pronouncements From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by
the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a
material impact on its financial position, results of operations or disclosures upon adoption. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with
Customers," which requires entities to recognize revenue in the way it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU
will replace most of the existing revenue recognition requirements in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. This pronouncement is effective for
annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period and is to be applied retrospectively, with early application not
permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this pronouncement will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. 15
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements The following discussion and analysis is provided to further the reader's understanding of our condensed consolidated financial statements, financial condition and results of operations
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our filings
with the SEC, including our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking
statements represent our management's judgment regarding future events. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may,"
"will," "should," "plan," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "predict," "intend," "potential"
or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other words of similar import, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. All statements other than
statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents incorporated by reference into this report regarding our financial position, business strategy
and plans or objectives for future operations are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the broader description of forward-looking statements above, we specifically note that
statements regarding potential drug candidates, their potential therapeutic effect, the possibility of obtaining regulatory approval, any anticipated timelines for making FDA or other regulatory
filings or submissions, or with respect to completion of milestones or targets with respect to regulatory filings, clinical studies, preclinical work and related matters, our ability or the ability of
our collaborators to manufacture and sell any products, market acceptance, or our ability to earn a profit from sales or licenses of any drug candidate or to discover new drugs in the future
are all forward-looking in nature. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of the forward-looking statements, and you should be aware that results and events could differ materially and
adversely from those described in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including: • our ability to effectively outsource activities critical to the advancement of our product candidates; • our ability to successfully complete clinical trials, make timely regulatory submissions, and receive required regulatory approvals and the length, time and cost of
obtaining such regulatory approvals and commercializing products; • the successful completion of our strategic collaborations or changes in our relationships with our collaborators; • competitive factors; • our ability to maintain the level of our expenses consistent with our internal budgets and forecasts; • our ability to successfully commercialize Gattex and Revestive; • the ability of our contract manufacturers to successfully produce adequate supplies of our product candidates and drug delivery devices to meet clinical trial and
commercial requirements; • variability of our royalty, license and other revenues; • our ability to enter into and maintain agreements with current and future collaborators on commercially reasonable terms; • our ability to successfully execute our strategic plans, including international expansion; • our ability to secure additional funds; • the demand for securities of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in general and our common stock in particular; • uncertainty regarding our patents and patent rights; • any concerns about the safety of our products or product candidates; • compliance with current or prospective governmental regulation; • ability to obtain sufficient coverage or reimbursement by third-party payers and our ability to maintain coverage or reimbursement at anticipated levels; • technological change; and • general economic and market conditions. 16
You should also consider carefully the statements set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 entitled "Risk Factors,"
which address these and additional factors that could cause results or events to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking

Overview We are a global biopharmaceutical company pioneering and delivering first-in- or best-in disease therapies that transform the lives of patients with rare diseases. Our vision is creating a
world where every person living with a rare disease has a treatment option. Our
current therapeutic areas of focus are rare gastrointestinal and endocrine disorders. These include Short Bowel Syndrome, a potentially fatal gastrointestinal disorder in which patients may
have to rely on parenteral support for their survival; Hypoparathyroidism, a complex endocrine disorder in which the parathyroid glands are either absent or damaged and the body produces
insufficient or no parathyroid hormone; and Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia (ADH), an ultra-rare genetic disorder of calcium homeostasis caused by mutations of the calcium-sensing
receptor gene. Our marketed product, Gattex® 0.05 mg/kg/d (teduglutide [rDNA origin]) for injection, for subcutaneous use was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the
"FDA") in December 2012 for the treatment of adult patients with Short Bowel Syndrome ("SBS") who are dependent on parenteral support. SBS is an ultra-rare
potentially fatal disorder in which the body is unable to absorb enough nutrients and fluids through the gastrointestinal tract. In the European Union ("EU"), teduglutide (trade
name: Revestive®) is approved for the treatment of adult patients with SBS; patients should be stable following a period of intestinal adaptation after surgery. We are preparing to launch
Revestive in certain EU markets later this year. We are also implementing our regulatory strategy for Japan, which includes filing for orphan drug status. In addition, a global development
program in pediatric SBS is advancing and we expect reporting top-line results from this study in late 2014 or early 2015. Our second product, Natpara® (rhPTH[1-84]) for injection, has been developed for hypoparathyroidism, a rare multidimensional disorder characterized by deficient or absent
parathyroid hormone ("PTH"). Our Biologic License Application is currently undergoing FDA review and we are preparing for an FDA Advisory Committee meeting on September
12, 2014. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act goal date for a decision by the FDA is October 24, 2014. We expect to file our Marketing Authorization Application for Natpar®, which is
the European brand name for Natpara, in hypoparathyroidism to the European Medicines Agency in 2014. We are also developing NPSP795 for ADH and we recently launched a Phase 2a proof-of-concept study. ADH is caused by mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) gene that
increase the sensitivity of the receptor to serum calcium. NPSP795 is a selective calcium receptor antagonist (termed calcilytic), which binds to the CaSR and decreases its sensitivity to
serum calcium. NPSP795's mechanism of action is believed to restore the normal physiological action of the CaSR and address the underlying molecular defect in ADH to return normal
calcium homeostasis. The company expects to report preliminary top-line data from its Phase 2a study in late 2014 or early 2015. 17
Our strategy also includes pursuing in-licensing opportunities that align with our focus on first-in-rare disease or best-in-rare disease therapeutics. While SBS, Hypoparathyroidsim, and ADH are relatively rare disorders, we believe these indications represent a substantial commercial opportunity to us due to the significant
unmet need and lack of effective therapies, as well as the serious complications involved with and the chronic nature of these diseases. We have incurred cumulative losses from inception through June 30, 2014 of approximately $1.0 billion. We may continue to record losses as we incur sales and marketing costs
related to the commercialization of Gattex and Revestive, pre-launch costs for Natpara, and our expansion into the international market. As a result of the marketing approval for Gattex, we no longer expense manufacturing costs relating to this product as research and development expenses. We capitalize these costs
as inventory as they are incurred. There are currently no cost of sales associated with the sale of Gattex as we are selling the inventory that we produced in advance of the FDA's approval
of the New Drug Application ("NDA") for Gattex. This will result in current gross margins to be higher than those we will achieve once we begin selling Gattex manufactured after
the date of FDA approval of Gattex. Based on our current plans and assumptions, we believe that by the end of 2015, we will have sold off this supply of product on hand at the time of the
FDA's approval of the NDA for Gattex. We expect that the higher gross margins for Gattex will be partially off-set by the full cost of sales for Revestive, which did not have any inventory
expensed prior to approval. We also expect to record increased sales and incur additional marketing costs related to the commercialization of Gattex and Revestive, pre-launch costs for
Natpara, and our expansion into the international market. Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 The following table summarizes selected operating statement data for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 (amounts in thousands): 18
Revenues. Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were comprised of product sales of Gattex, which was launched in the U.S. in February 2013,
Revestive, which was distributed under a named-patient program, and royalties from our licensees and collaborators. Royalty revenues fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Our revenues
were $56.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to $36.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. We recognized royalty revenue under our research and license
agreements and product sales during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as follows (amounts in thousands): Product Sales, net. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized net product sales of $22.0 million and $4.8 million, respectively, for Gattex
and Revestive. We received approval from the FDA in December 2012 and subsequently launched Gattex in February 2013. Also, pursuant to the Termination and Transition Agreement
with Takeda, we received back the rights to market Revestive in certain territories outside of the U.S. Revestive was approved in the EU in 2012 and we plan to begin launching the product
in certain EU countries in the latter part of 2014. Product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future
period or for the year ending December 31, 2014. We expect that product sales of Gattex and Revestive will vary from period to period given the size of the patient population. We record product sales net of allowances and accruals for prompt pay discounts, rebates and chargebacks under U.S. governmental programs (including Medicaid), product returns,
and distribution-related fees. These allowances and accruals will continue to grow in relation to an increase in the sales of Gattex. The following table summarizes the provisions, and
credits/payments, for government rebates and chargebacks, distribution-related fees, and returns and other sales-related deductions (in thousands): Royalties. The increase in royalty revenue earned from Amgen's sales of Sensipar and Mimpara (cinacalcet HCl) for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was
primarily due to increased unit demand, which was partially offset by a non-recurring favorable adjustment which was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2013. We amended our
agreement with Amgen and Amgen began withholding the royalties on sales of Sensipar and Mimpara up to $8.0 million per quarter and credit them, net of the discount, to the Sensipar
Notes issued pursuant to the amended agreement. After the repayment of the royalty advance and a 9% per annum discount factor on the outstanding balance, Amgen will resume paying
us all royalties earned through December 31, 2018. 19
During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized royalty revenue of $1.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively, from Kyowa Hakko Kirin for sales of REGPARA.
The decrease was primarily due to decreased demand during the quarter. In February 2010, we sold our rights to receive certain future royalty payments from Kyowa Hakko Kirin's sale of
REGPARA to an affiliate of DRI. The agreement provides DRI with the right to receive payments related to sales of REGPARA occurring on or after July 1, 2009 and we therefore do not
receive any such royalty payments until the REGPARA-secured debt is repaid. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized royalty revenue of $691,000 and $756,000, respectively, from Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for sales of
Nucynta. The decrease in royalty revenue earned from Nucynta for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to higher deductions from gross sales, which were partially
offset by increased demand. Cost of Sales. Upon marketing approval from the FDA in December 2012, we began capitalizing inventory costs
associated with commercial supplies of Gattex subsequent to receipt of marketing approval from the FDA. Costs for manufacturing supplies of Gattex prior to receipt of FDA approval were
recognized as research and development expenses in the period that the costs were incurred. Therefore, these costs are not being included in cost of sales when revenue is recognized
from the sale of those supplies of Gattex. Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $2.7 million and $473,000, respectively, and consisted primarily of royalty
costs related to Gattex commercial supplies. Accordingly, we expect our current product gross margins to decrease from approximately 90% to the 80% to 85% range as we begin sales of
product that has been capitalized to inventory. Based on our current plans and assumptions, we believe that by the end of 2015, we will have sold off this supply of product on hand at the
time of the FDA's approval of the NDA for Gattex. Research and Development. Our research and development expenses are categorized into three areas: clinical development costs, product development costs and
other research and development costs. Clinical development costs were $5.6 million and $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Clinical development costs are primarily comprised of
costs paid to outside parties to conduct and manage clinical trials related to Gattex, Natpara and NPSP795 as well as costs associated with regulatory functions.
Product development costs
were $5.5 million and $19.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Product development costs are costs related to the drug needed for our clinical
studies and pre-approval inventory. Other research and development costs were $10.1 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Other research and
development costs consist primarily of personnel, personnel-related costs and overhead costs that relate to clinical and product development activities. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, our research and development expenses decreased to $21.2 million from $30.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The
decrease in research and development for the three months ended June 30, 2014 is primarily due to a $14.0 million decrease in costs related to the production of pre-approval Natpara
inventory. This decrease was partially offset by a $3.5 million increase in personnel and personnel-related costs. Selling, General and Administrative. Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation for employees in executive, finance, legal and
sales and marketing functions as well as facility costs and professional fees for accounting and legal services. Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $26.4 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $14.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily relates to an
increase in personnel and external costs related to launch activities for Gattex, Revestive and pre-launch activities for Natpara.
As we continue our international expansion and continue our pre-launch Natpara plan, we expect that these costs would continue to increase. 20
Interest Income. Interest income increased to $103,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $58,000 from the comparative period in 2013. Interest Expense. Our interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 increased to $3.6 million compared to $3.0 million for the three months ended June
30, 2013. Our long-term sales forecast for Natpara and royalty forecast for REGPARA are used to calculate the implicit interest rate and the related interest expense for our non-recourse
debt. Interest expense increased due primarily to a higher effective interest rate due to an increase in the forecast of Natpara sales related to the non-recourse debt ($1.6 million). This
increase was partially offset by decreases in interest expense for (i) the lower principal balance on our Sensipar Notes ($583,000), (ii) lower interest expense due to the conversion of our
remaining outstanding convertible notes during the quarter ($224,000) and (iii) a lower effective interest rate due to a decrease in the forecast of REGPARA royalties related to the
non-recourse debt associated with the sale of certain of our REGPARA royalty rights ($166,000). Income Taxes. Income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2014 increased to $263,000 compared to $4,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in
income tax expense relates to certain state and foreign income taxes. Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 The following table summarizes selected operating statement data for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 (amounts in thousands): Revenues. Our revenues were $100.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $61.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. We
recognized royalty revenue under our research and license agreements and product sales during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as follows (amounts in
thousands): 21
Product Sales, net. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized net product sales revenue of $39.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively, for
Gattex and Revestive. We received approval from the FDA in December 2012 and subsequently launched Gattex in February 2013. Also, pursuant to the Termination and Transition
Agreement with Takeda, we received back the rights to market Revestive in certain territories outside of the U.S. Revestive was approved in the EU in 2012 and we plan to launch in certain
countries in the EU in the second half of 2014. Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period
or for the year ending December 31, 2014. We expect that product sales of Gattex and Revestive will vary from period to period given the size of the patient population. We record product sales net of allowances and accruals for prompt pay discounts, rebates and chargebacks under U.S. governmental programs (including Medicaid), product returns,
and distribution-related fees. These allowances and accruals will continue to grow in relation to an increase in the sales of Gattex. The following table summarizes the provisions, and
credits/payments, for government rebates and chargebacks, distribution-related fees, and returns and other sales-related deductions (in thousands): Royalties. The increase in royalty revenue earned from Amgen's sales of Sensipar and Mimpara (cinacalcet HCl) for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily
due to increased unit demand, which was partially offset by a non-recurring favorable adjustment which was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2013. We amended our agreement
with Amgen and Amgen began withholding the royalties on sales of Sensipar and Mimpara up to $8.0 million per quarter and credit them, net of the discount, to the Sensipar Notes issued
pursuant to the amended agreement. After the repayment of the royalty advance and a 9% per annum discount factor on the outstanding balance, Amgen will resume paying us all royalties
earned through December 31, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized royalty revenue of $4.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively, from Kyowa Hakko Kirin for sales of REGPARA. The
increase was primarily due to increased demand which was partially offset by fluctuations in foreign currencies. In February 2010, we sold our rights to receive certain future royalty
payments from Kyowa Hakko Kirin's sale of REGPARA to an affiliate of DRI. The agreement provides DRI with the right to receive payments related to sales of REGPARA occurring on or
after July 1, 2009 and we therefore do not receive any such royalty payments until the REGPARA-secured debt is repaid. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized royalty revenue of $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively, from Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for sales of
Nucynta. The decrease in royalty revenue earned from Nucynta for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to higher deductions from gross sales. Cost of Sales. Upon marketing approval from the FDA in December 2012, we began capitalizing inventory costs associated with commercial supplies of Gattex
subsequent to receipt of marketing approval from the FDA. Costs for manufacturing supplies of Gattex prior to receipt of FDA approval were recognized as research and development
expenses in the period that the costs were incurred. Therefore, these costs are not being included in cost of sales when revenue is recognized from the sale of those supplies of Gattex.
Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $4.6 million and $538,000, respectively, and consisted primarily of royalty costs related to Gattex commercial supplies.
Accordingly, we expect our current product gross margins to decrease from approximately 90% to the 80% to 85% range as we begin sales of product that has been capitalized to inventory.
Based on our current plans and assumptions, we believe that by the end of 2015, we will have sold off this supply of product on hand at the time of the FDA's approval of the NDA for
Gattex. Research and Development. Our research and development expenses are categorized into three areas: clinical development costs, product development costs and
other research and development costs. 22
Clinical development costs were $10.7 million and $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Clinical development costs are primarily comprised of
costs paid to outside parties to conduct and manage clinical trials related to Gattex, Natpara and NPSP795 as well as costs associated with regulatory functions.
Product development costs
were $11.0 million and $26.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Product development costs are costs related to the drug needed for our clinical studies
and pre-approval inventory. Other research and development costs were $20.0 million and $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Other research and
development costs consist primarily of personnel, personnel-related costs and overhead costs that relate to clinical and product development activities. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, our research and development expenses decreased to $41.7 million from $46.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease
in research and development for the six months ended June 30, 2014 is primarily due to a $16.5 million decrease in the costs related to the production of pre-approval Natpara inventory.
This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $6.1 million in personnel and
personnel-related costs and a $4.9 million increase in clinical and regulatory costs for Gattex/Revestive and Natpara/Natpar. Selling, General and Administrative. Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation for employees in executive, finance, legal and
sales and marketing functions as well as facility costs and professional fees for accounting and legal services. Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $51.0 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $28.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily relate to an
increase in personnel and external costs related to launch activities for Gattex, Revestive and pre-launch activities for Natpara. As we continue our international expansion and continue our
pre-launch Natpara plan, we expect that these costs would continue to increase. Interest Income. Interest income increased to $224,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $113,000 from the comparative period in 2013. Interest Expense. Our interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased to $7.7 million compared to $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
2013. Our long-term sales forecast for Natpara and royalty forecast for REGPARA are used to calculate the implicit interest rate and the related interest expense for our non-recourse debt.
Interest expense increased due primarily to a higher effective interest rate due to an increase in the forecast of Natpara sales related to the non-recourse debt ($3.1 million). This increase
was partially offset by decreases in interest expense for (i) the lower principal balance on our Sensipar Notes ($1.2 million), (ii) a lower effective interest rate due to a decrease in the
forecast of REGPARA royalties related to the non-recourse debt associated with the sale of certain of our REGPARA royalty rights ($486,000) and (iii) lower interest expense due to the
conversion of our remaining outstanding convertible notes during the six months ended June 30, 2014 ($224,000). Income Taxes. Income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased to $274,000 compared to $4,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in
income tax expense relates to certain state and foreign income taxes. Liquidity and Capital Resources The following table summarizes selected financial data (amounts in thousands): 23
Historically, we have not been a self-sustaining business and certain economic, operational and strategic factors may require us to secure additional funds. If we are unable to generate
sufficient cash flows from operations or obtain sufficient funding at any time in the future, we may not be able to develop or commercialize our products, take advantage of business
opportunities or respond to competitive pressures. Our current and anticipated operations require substantial capital. Our actual needs will depend on numerous factors, including, without
limitation, the progress and scope of our internally funded commercialization and development activities related to the launch of Gattex and the launch of Revestive and the pre-launch of
Natpara; the success of our collaborators in developing and marketing products under their respective collaborations with us; our success in producing commercial and clinical supplies of
our products and product candidates generally, and on a timely basis sufficient to meet the needs of our commercial activities and clinical trials; our ability to successfully execute our
strategic plans, including international expansion; the costs we incur in obtaining and enforcing patent and other proprietary rights or gaining the freedom to operate under the patents of
others; and our success in acquiring and integrating complementary products, technologies or businesses. Our commercial activities may not be successful for many reasons, including,
without limitation, our inability to effectively market and distribute our products in the United States and other territories; our patients' ability to obtain sufficient coverage or reimbursement by
third-party payors for our products at the prices we set, if at all; the risk that safety concerns may develop with respect to our products; the risk that our manufacturers may not be able to
supply sufficient quantities of our products to support our commercialization activities or that other manufacturing problems may occur; and the risk that our products may face competition
from new products or technologies that may be developed. Our clinical trials may be modified, disrupted or terminated and our commercial activities and clinical filings could be delayed for
several reasons including the risk that our product candidates will demonstrate safety concerns; the risk that regulatory authorities may not approve our product candidates for further
development or may require additional or expanded clinical trials to be performed; and the risk that our manufacturers may not be able to supply sufficient quantities of our drug candidates
to support our clinical trials, our regulatory filings or commercial launches, or that other manufacturing problems may occur. We may also be required to conduct unanticipated preclinical or
clinical trials to obtain regulatory approval of our product candidates, Natpara and NPSP795. If any of the events that pose these risks comes to fruition, our actual capital needs may
substantially exceed our anticipated capital needs and we may have to substantially modify or terminate current and planned clinical trials or postpone conducting future clinical trials. As a
result, our business may be materially harmed, our stock price may be adversely affected, and our ability to raise additional capital may be impaired. We may need to raise additional funds to support our long-term research, product development, business development activities, and commercialization programs. We regularly
consider various fund raising alternatives, including, for example, debt or equity financing, and monetizing of potential revenue streams. We may also seek additional funding through
strategic alliances, collaborations, or license agreements and other financing mechanisms. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at
all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of our efforts to commercialize Gattex/Revestive or Natpara, if it receives regulatory approval, delay,
reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our research and development programs, including NPSP795, or to obtain funds through arrangements with licensees or others that may
require us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or product candidates that we may otherwise seek to develop or commercialize on our own. We require cash to fund our operating expenses, to make capital expenditures, acquisitions and investments. We have financed operations since inception primarily through payments
received under collaborative research and license agreements; the private and public issuance and sale of equity securities; the issuance and sale of non-recourse debt, convertible debt
and lease financing; and sales of Gattex/Revestive. Through June 30, 2014, we have recognized $939.5 million of cumulative revenues from payments for research support, license
fees, product sales, milestone and royalty payments; $891.7 million from the sale of equity securities for cash; $738.6 million from the sale of non-recourse debt and convertible debt for
cash; and $71.6 million from sales of Gattex since its launch in February 2013. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash, cash equivalents, and marketable investment securities, which totaled $169.5 million at June 30, 2014. The primary objectives for our
marketable investment security portfolio are liquidity and safety of principal. Investments are intended to achieve the highest rate of return to us, consistent with these two objectives. Our
investment policy limits investments to certain types of instruments issued by institutions with investment grade credit ratings and places restrictions on maturities and concentration by type
and issuer. 24
On April 8, 2014, the holders of the 5.75% Convertible Notes converted the remaining outstanding notes at a conversion price of $5.44 per share. We issued 3,041,451 shares
pursuant to this conversion and retired the remaining $16.5 million of the outstanding 5.75% Convertible Notes. The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 (amounts in thousands): Net cash used in operating activities was $12.7 million and $18.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The decrease in net
cash used in 2014 was primarily due to the decrease in interest expense and non-cash royalty receivable related to the issuance of non-recourse Sensipar Notes to Amgen. The REGPARA
royalty revenue is pledged to service the principal and interest on our non-recourse notes and is not available to fund operations. The decrease in net cash used was also related to the
cash received from the sales of Gattex during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The above decreases in net cash used in 2014 were partially offset by increased spending related to the
pre-launch activities for Natpara and costs associated with the launch of Revestive in the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net cash provided by investing activities was $10.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $28.6 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2013. The net cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily the result of using proceeds from the sale and maturity
of marketable investment securities to fund operations. The net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was primarily the result of investing excess cash
that was not currently required to fund operations. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $1.1 million and $364,000, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities was $4.7 million and $99.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities during
the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily consisted of approximately $6.6 million received from the exercise of employee stock options and the sale of shares for the employee stock
purchase plan. This provision of net cash from financing activities was partially offset by using $2.0 million to pay taxes that were due from the withholding of shares upon the vesting of
certain restricted stock units. Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2013 primarily consisted of the $93.5 million received from the public sale of 6.9
million common shares in May 2013 and approximately $6.0 million received from the exercise of employee stock options and the sale of shares for the employee stock purchase plan. We could receive future milestone payments from all our agreements of up to $16.8 million in the aggregate if each of our current licensees accomplishes the specified research,
development and/or sales milestones provided in the respective agreements. In addition, all of the agreements require the licensees to make royalty payments to us if they sell products
covered by the terms of our license agreements; however, we do not control the subject matter, timing or resources applied by our licensees to their development programs. Thus, potential
receipt of milestone and royalty payments from these licensees is largely beyond our control. Each of these agreements may be terminated before its scheduled expiration date by the
respective licensee either for any reason or under certain conditions. We have entered into certain license agreements that may require us to pay milestone payments or royalties. For example, we are required to make royalty payments to certain
licensors on Gattex and Revestive net sales and cinacalcet HCl royalty revenues. We expect to enter into additional sponsored research and license agreements in the future. 25
We have entered into long-term agreements with certain manufacturers and suppliers that require us to make contractual payment to these organizations. We expect to enter into
collaborative research, contract research, manufacturing, and supplier agreements in the future, which may require up-front payments and long-term commitments of cash.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
Interest Rate Risk.
Our interest rate risk exposure results from our investment portfolio and our non-recourse notes. Our primary objectives in managing our investment portfolio are to preserve principal, maintain proper liquidity to meet operating needs and maximize yields. The securities we hold in our investment portfolio are subject to interest rate risk. At any time, significant changes in interest rates can affect the fair value of the investment portfolio and its interest earnings. After a review of our marketable investment securities, we believe that in the event of a hypothetical ten percent increase in interest rates, the resulting decrease in fair market value of our marketable investment securities would be insignificant to the consolidated financial statements. Currently, we do not hedge these interest rate exposures. We have established policies and procedures to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. We place our investments with high quality issuers and limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer and do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. We invest in highly liquid, investment-grade securities and money market funds of various issues, types and maturities. These securities are classified as available for sale and, consequently, are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component in stockholders' deficit, unless a loss is considered other than temporary, in which case the loss is recognized in earnings.Our 9% non-recourse Sensipar Notes have a fixed interest rate. As of June 30, 2014, our Sensipar Notes had $40.6 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding. The fair value of the Sensipar Notes is affected by changes in interest rates and by historical and projected rates of royalty revenues from cinacalcet HCl sales.
Foreign Currency Risk. We have significant clinical and commercial-scale manufacturing agreements as well as foreign subsidiaries which are denominated in other foreign currencies. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as a change in the foreign currency exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies, or by weak economic conditions in other countries. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against the foreign currencies, the cost of expenses outside the U.S. decreases. When the U.S. dollar weakens against other foreign currencies, the cost of expenses in other countries increases. The monetary assets and liabilities in our foreign subsidiaries which are impacted by the foreign currency fluctuations are cash, accounts payable, and certain accrued liabilities. A hypothetical ten percent increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies from the June 30, 2014 rate would cause the fair value of such monetary assets and liabilities in our foreign subsidiary to change by an insignificant amount. We are not currently engaged in any foreign currency hedging activities.
Item 4. |
Controls and Procedures. |
We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures" within the meaning of Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures, or Disclosure Controls, are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Our Disclosure Controls are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
26
regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our Disclosure Controls, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of June 30, 2014, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, which was done under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. Immediately following the Signatures section of the Quarterly report on Form 10-Q are certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. This Controls and Procedures section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented. Based on the controls evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the date of their evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their intended purpose.
Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
