Metabolic Portfolio

2




Strensiq (asfotase alfa): Strensiq received a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommending marketing authorization for long-term enzyme replacement therapy in patients with pediatric-onset HPP. Strensiq was also approved by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) for the treatment of patients with HPP. The regulatory process for Strensiq in the U.S. is ongoing. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) previously granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for Strensiq and accepted Alexion’s Biologics License Application (BLA) for Priority Review.

Kanuma™ (sebelipase alfa): Kanuma received a positive CHMP opinion from the EMA recommending marketing authorization for long-term enzyme replacement therapy in patients of all ages with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D). In Q2, a New Drug Application for Kanuma was also submitted to Japan’s MHLW as a treatment for patients with LAL-D. The regulatory process for Kanuma in the U.S. is ongoing. The FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for Kanuma for LAL-D presenting in infants and accepted the BLA for Priority Review.

Preclinical Portfolio
Alexion has more than 30 diverse pre-clinical programs across a range of therapeutic modalities, with four of these programs expected to enter the clinic in 2016.


2015 Financial Guidance

Alexion today announced that the Company is revising upward its revenue guidance for 2015 from the previous range of $2.55 to $2.6 billion, now to the higher and narrower range of $2.6 to $2.62 billion, which includes an approximately negative 6 percent, or $160 million, foreign exchange impact compared to 2014 exchange rates.

Alexion is reducing its 2015 tax rate guidance to the lower range of 3 percent to 4 percent, from the previous range of 7 percent to 9 percent. Alexion is also reducing its longer-term tax rate guidance to the lower range of 12 percent to 14 percent in 2019 and beyond, from the previous range of 14 percent to 16 percent, a reduction of 2 percent.

Alexion is also revising 2015 non-GAAP financial guidance as follows, which reflects the inclusion of Synageva financial results into Alexion’s consolidated results beginning June 22, 2015, the acquisition closing date:

Cost of sales
8% to 9% of net product sales
Research and development expense
$520 to $540 million
Selling, general and administrative expense
$690 to $710 million
Interest expense
$55 million
Effective tax rate
3% to 4%
Diluted shares outstanding
219 million

As a result of these changes, Alexion is revising 2015 non-GAAP EPS guidance to the range of $4.70 to $4.80 per share, from the previous range of $5.60 to $5.80 per share.

About Soliris® (eculizumab)

Soliris is a first-in-class terminal complement inhibitor developed from the laboratory through regulatory approval and commercialization by Alexion. Soliris is approved in the U.S. (2007), European Union (2007), Japan (2010) and other countries as the first and only treatment for patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) to reduce hemolysis. PNH is a debilitating, ultra-rare and life-threatening blood disorder, characterized by complement-mediated hemolysis (destruction of red blood cells). Soliris is also approved in the U.S. (2011), European Union (2011), Japan (2013) and other countries as the first and only treatment for patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) to inhibit complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy, or TMA (blood clots in small vessels). aHUS is a debilitating, ultra-rare and life-threatening genetic disorder characterized by complement-mediated TMA. Soliris is not indicated for the treatment of patients with Shiga-toxin E. coli-related hemolytic uremic syndrome (STEC-HUS). For the breakthrough medical innovation in complement inhibition, Alexion and Soliris have received some of the pharmaceutical industry's highest honors: the Prix Galien USA (2008, Best Biotechnology Product) and France (2009, Rare Disease Treatment).

More information, including the full U.S. prescribing information on Soliris, is available at www.soliris.net.

About Strensiq™ (asfotase alfa)

Strensiq™ (asfotase alfa) is an investigational first-in-class bone-targeted enzyme replacement therapy designed to address the underlying cause of hypophosphatasia (HPP)-deficient alkaline phosphatase (ALP). By replacing deficient ALP, treatment with Strensiq aims to improve the elevated enzyme substrate levels and improve the body's ability to mineralize bone, thereby preventing serious skeletal and systemic patient morbidity and premature death.


4




The FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for Strensiq and accepted Alexion’s Biologics License Application (BLA) for Priority Review. Alexion has also submitted a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for Strensiq to the EMA. Strensiq is approved by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) for the treatment of patients with HPP.

About Kanuma™ (sebelipase alfa)

Kanuma™ (sebelipase alfa) is an investigational first-in-class enzyme replacement therapy designed to address the underlying cause of lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D). By replacing deficient LAL, treatment with Kanuma aims to reduce substrate accumulation and improve lipid metabolism to prevent chronic lipid accumulation, vital organ damage and premature death.

The FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for Kanuma for LAL Deficiency presenting in infants. The FDA accepted the Kanuma BLA for Priority Review, and the EMA validated the MAA for Kanuma and is reviewing it under accelerated assessment. In addition, a New Drug Application for Kanuma has been submitted to Japan’s MHLW.

Forward-looking statements are subject to factors that may cause Alexion's results and plans to differ from those expected, including for example, decisions of regulatory authorities regarding marketing approval or material limitations on the marketing of our products, delays, interruptions or failures in the manufacture and supply of our products and our product candidates, progress in establishing and developing commercial infrastructure, failure to satisfactorily address the issues raised by the FDA in regulatory correspondence, the possibility that results of clinical trials are not predictive of safety and efficacy results of our products in broader patient populations in the disease studied or other diseases, the risk that strategic transactions will not result in short-term or long-term benefits, the possibility that current results of commercialization are not predictive of future rates of adoption of Soliris in PNH, aHUS or other diseases, the possibility that clinical trials of our product candidates could be delayed or that additional research and testing is required by regulatory agencies, the adequacy of our pharmacovigilance and drug safety reporting processes, the risk that third party payors (including governmental agencies) will not reimburse or continue to reimburse for the use of

5




our products at acceptable rates or at all, risks regarding government investigations, the risk that estimates regarding the number of patients with PNH, aHUS or other diseases are inaccurate, and a variety of other risks set forth from time to time in Alexion's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to the risks discussed in Alexion's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2015 and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on May 22, 2015. Alexion does not intend to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, except when a duty arises under law.

In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, this news release also contains non-GAAP financial measures that Alexion believes, when considered together with the GAAP information, provide investors and management with supplemental information relating to performance, trends and prospects that promote a more complete understanding of our operating results and financial position during different periods. The non-GAAP results exclude the impact of the following GAAP items: share-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs, upfront and milestone payments related to license and collaboration agreements, intangible asset impairments, restructuring expenses, and non-cash taxes. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP and should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the attached Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Results for explanations of the amounts adjusted to arrive at non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share amounts for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Non-cash taxes represents the adjustment from GAAP tax expense to the amount of taxes that are payable (receivable) in cash in the current period. In the second quarter 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Synageva which resulted in a benefit to both GAAP and non-GAAP taxes from the utilization of Synageva's operating losses in 2015. The tax benefit recorded in the second quarter is resulting from the application of the lower full year tax rate to the first half of the year.
