CEO’s comments

I am pleased with the positive EBIT and cash flow result of the third quarter. The result is primarily driven by positive Zubsolv® and Abstral® revenue growth with 30 percent versus Q3 2015. However, this quarter we also benefited from inventory built up in Maryland, lower expenses than expected and favorable currency development. In addition to the positive financial results the quarter has been highlighted by two significant events, the patient cap lift in the US and the progression towards launching Zubsolv in Europe as well.

In July the US Government ruled to take action and expand access to treatment of opioid dependence. I am encouraged to see over 1,500 physicians have received the certification to expand to 275 patients as of mid-October. Our ambition is to win a disproportionate share of the new patients in the regions where Zubsolv is reimbursed and have market access comparable to our main branded competitors. Though early in the process I am pleased to find this is beginning to occur especially with physicians covered by our field force today. With regards to market access we have maintained or improved our position with all major insurance plans and we have strengthened our position in all payer segments, both winning new contracts and renewing existing ones. Although encouraged by the improving market access especially in the public segment, an increased importance of the public segment will increase the average rebate level for Zubsolv US.

In Europe we took a first important step to be able to launch Zubsolv. We have worked intensively in collaboration with Mundipharma throughout the quarter to finalize the bio-equivalence study required to complete the European filing and prepare the dossier. Earlier than expected, on October 3rd, we submitted the file and expect approval in Q4 2017.

Apart from the progression of our commercialization of Zubsolv, the court case against Actavis has required a lot of our attention during the quarter and 2016. We maintain a high degree of confidence in the strengths of our patents i.e. they are valid and Actavis is infringing. In parallel with the court case our patent portfolio around Zubsolv has continued to expand and this has led to additional litigation processes against Actavis. The first decision from the court is expected in the fourth quarter of 2016.1)

In August we finalized the REZOLV study and in early October, we announced the approval of a new low dosage of Zubsolv. These announcements mark the completion of the pharmaceutical and clinical development program for Zubsolv. With the finalization of the Zubsolv development programs we are now ready to look ahead and strengthen our long term product pipeline beyond Zubsolv. We are currently working on some early internal projects and are evaluating our opportunities moving forward together with the Board of Directors. My colleagues at Orexo and I are looking forward to the continued positive evolution of the company with confidence of an exciting future for Orexo.
