Exhibit 99.1
Unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information
On January 27, 2014, Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (“Vertex,” the “Company” or “we”) concluded that the intangible asset related to the HCV nucleotide analogue program (VX-135) had become fully impaired. This conclusion was based on, among other factors, (a) available safety, tolerability and efficacy data regarding VX-135, (b) the continuing partial clinical hold on VX-135 by the FDA and (c) a review of the competitive landscape for treatments for hepatitis C virus infection. Based on these factors, we evaluated the fair value of the VX-135 intangible asset from the perspective of a market participant and concluded that the fair value of this asset was zero as of December 31, 2013. Accordingly, a $250.6 million impairment charge and a benefit for income taxes of $102.1 million was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2013. In connection with this impairment charge, we determined that we no longer had a variable interest in Alios BioPharma, Inc. ("Alios") and deconsolidated the financial statements of Alios from the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013. The net effect of the impairment charge, tax benefit and related deconsolidation was a gain of approximately $68.2 million attributable to Vertex in 2013. In accordance with S-X Rule 11-02(b)(5), these amounts have not been reflected in the pro forma statements of operations.
The following supplemental pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only, to provide an understanding of the Company’s historical financial results as adjusted for the deconsolidation of Alios. These pro forma financial statements should not be considered a substitute for the actual historical financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as presented in the Company’s filings on Form 10-Q and 10-K. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information disclosed in this report is for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of results of operations that would have been achieved had the pro forma events taken place on the dates indicated, or our future consolidated results of operations.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012 present our condensed consolidated results of operations giving pro forma effect to the deconsolidation of Alios as if it had occurred on January 1, 2012. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2013 presents our condensed consolidated financial position giving pro forma effect to the deconsolidation of Alios as if it had occurred on September 30, 2013. These pro forma financial statements should be read in connection with the Company’s historical condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2013, which were included in the Form 10-Q filed on November 7, 2013 and the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, which were included in the Form 10-K filed on March 1, 2013.
The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information, estimates and assumptions that we believe are reasonable in order to reflect, on a pro forma basis, the impact of this deconsolidation on our historical financial information.
