Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The press release and presentation referenced below in item 8.01 include certain previously non-public financial information, some of which may be considered material.
    
Item 8.01 Other Events.
 
On April 21, 2015, Perrigo Company plc (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the Company’s board unanimously rejected the unsolicited indicative proposal from Mylan N.V. and made available a related investor presentation. Copies of the press release and the investor presentation are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 and are incorporated herein by reference.

The Directors of Perrigo Company plc accept responsibility for the information contained in this document. To the best of their knowledge and belief (having taken all reasonable care to ensure such is the case), the information contained in this document is in accordance with the facts and does not omit anything likely to affect the import of such information.

A person interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant securities of Perrigo Company plc or Mylan N.V. may have disclosure obligations under Rule 8.3 of the Irish Takeover Rules.

Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 contain certain non-GAAP measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the company. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of Operating income to adjusted Operating income within Exhibit 99.1, and has provided reconciliations of Cost of sales, Gross profit, Operating expenses, Operating income, Interest expense, net, Other expense, net, Income (loss) before income taxes, Income tax expense (benefit), Net income (loss), Diluted weighted average shares outstanding, and Earnings per share within Exhibit 99.2 to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures for these non-GAAP measures. Additionally, Exhibit 99.2 contains a reconciliation of organic and inorganic net sales to U.S. GAAP net sales.

The Company excludes the items listed below in the applicable period when monitoring and evaluating the on-going financial results and trends of its business, and believes that presenting operating results excluding these items is also useful for investors, since it provides important insight into the Company's on-going core business operations on a normalized basis. Management uses adjusted financial data such as adjusted gross profit and adjusted operating margin for planning and forecasting in future periods, including trending and analyzing the core operating performance of the Company’s business from period to period without the effect of the non-core business items indicated. Management also uses adjusted financial data to prepare operating budgets and forecasts and to measure the Company’s performance against those budgets and forecasts on a corporate and segment level.

Items excluded from reported results:

Amortization of acquired intangible assets related to business combinations and asset acquisitions
Acquisition and integration-related charges
Restructuring charges related to completed business acquisitions and for organizational improvements
Loss contingency accrual
Write-off of in process research and development costs
Litigation settlements
Adjustments of contingent consideration to fair value
Escrow settlement
Inventory step-ups
Intangible asset impairments
Fixed asset impairments
Loss on asset exchange
Proceeds from sale of pipeline development projects




Note receivable impairment
R&D payment made in connection with collaborative arrangement
Financing charges and extinguishment of debt incurred in connection with financing a complete acquisition
Losses on derivatives associated with hedging an acquisition's foreign currency-denominated purchase price
Equity method investment losses
Income from transfer of rights agreement
The weighted average effect of shares issued to finance an acquisition
Investment distribution

Calendar 2015 guidance:
    
Non-GAAP guidance for calendar 2015 excludes amortization of intangibles, restructuring, and unusual litigation charges, along with transaction and financing costs related to the Omega Pharma Invest NV (“Omega”) acquisition.  At this time, a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP guidance measures for calendar 2015 is not available without unreasonable effort.  The Company expects that the unavailable reconciling items, which primarily include the amortization of intangibles and non-cash charges related to Omega, along with other expenses not related to our core operations, which may be related to the integration of Omega, the Company’s change in fiscal year and a recent indication of interest for the acquisition of the Company, could significantly impact its financial results.
