Certain Information Regarding Participants

Medivation, its directors and certain of its executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of revocations in connection with any Sanofi solicitation. Information regarding the names of Medivation’s directors and executive officers and their respective interests in Medivation by security holdings or otherwise is set forth in Medivation’s proxy statement for the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, as amended, filed with the SEC on April 29, 2016. Additional information can also be found in Medivation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2016 and in Medivation’s latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The attached Exhibit 99.1 includes non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation between certain historical non-GAAP financial measures and corresponding GAAP financial measures is available on Medivation’s website at www.medivation.com within the investor relations section. Management believes this non-GAAP financial information is useful for management and investors, when considered in conjunction with Medivation’s GAAP financial statements, because management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. Non-GAAP financial information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of Medivation’s operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
