KEY EVENTS DURING THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2010

Orexo enters into an alliance and license agreement for new drugs to treat respiratory diseases

Orexo entered a research and development alliance and license agreement with Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Janssen Pharmaceutica NV (collectively "OMJ"). The licenses granted to OMJ under the agreement include worldwide licenses to Orexo's ongoing OX-CLI and OX-ESI programs focusing on discovering and developing innovative small-molecule treatments for asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and other inflammatory diseases. In addition, OMJ will add a third internal program focusing on discovering and developing innovative smallmolecules against an undisclosed target to the alliance on the same financial terms.

  • For Orexo, the alliance will bring a research funding contribution of up to MUSD 21.5 (MSEK 167) over the first three years, including an upfront payment of MUSD 10 (MSEK 77.8).
  • Upon the successful development and commercialization of all three initial alliance programs for multiple indications, Orexo will be entitled to total development milestone payments of up to MUSD 564 (MSEK 4,390), plus additional sales milestones for each program. Commercialized products will also provide royalties.
  • OMJ will be responsible for all clinical development and commercialization activities, including costs.

Orexo status report regarding review of Abstral

On June 2, the US Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") extended by three months the review period under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act ("PDUFA") for the registration application for AbstralTM. The FDA issued the extension following its earlier request for additional information on the Abstral Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy ("REMS"). ProStrakan has submitted this additional information to the FDA.

Convertible loan transaction from Novo A/S completed

Following approval by the extraordinary general meeting of the convertible bond issue to Novo A/S, the bond issue in the amount of SEK 111,150,000 was completed, together with Novo's acquisition of existing shares corresponding to 10.7 per cent of the total number of shares and votes in Orexo.

KEY EVENTS AFTER THE PERIOD

In a separate announcement today, Orexo reported that it is launching the next step in its strategy, new development programs and changing of CEO. The full press release can be found at www.orexo.com.

On August 10, 2010, Orexo announced that Robin Wright would be appointed as new Head of Finance and Strategy, replacing Claes Wenthzel who will be leaving the company as of August 20, 2010.

Operations

"In the second quarter of the year, the launch of Abstral continues to be successful. Abstral sales to end customers were up approximately 30% compared to the first quarter of 2010: invoiced sales were up approximately 17 %, measured in number of tablets. Abstral is a leading product for the treatment of breakthrough pain in cancer patients across several major European countries.

The most important occurrence during the period was the announcement of the partnership with Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Janssen Pharmaceutica NV, which are a part of the Johnson & Johnson Group. The agreement is not only one of the largest discovery stage license deals ever completed in the international arena but also validates the quality of the work at Orexo, the acquisition of Biolipox AB in 2007 and the communicated strategy to partner pre clinical assets with Big Pharma to reduce cost burdens while retaining major parts of the upside.

Clinical trials with OX219 have been initiated. The aim is to develop a patent-protected sublingual tablet for treatment of opioid dependence, with improved characteristics relative to the current market leader Suboxone which generates revenues of approximately US\$1 billion per year. OX219 is also the first program into the clinic in line with our new strategy to develop a proprietary pipeline of specialist products.

Meda AB has informed Orexo that they will further develop the nasal cetirizine NLA product to complement Meda's allergy product portfolio. The next stage of development of NLA is a clinical phase III program, for which the full cost will be carried by Meda AB.

As previously communicated, the total cost base for 2010 is projected to range between SEK 200- 220 million", says Torbjörn Bjerke, President and CEO.

Revenues

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues for the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 65.5 (144.6). Higher revenues in the year-earlier period were primarily related to milestone revenues from the partnership with Meda and non-recurring compensation for the approval of Edluar in the US in the first quarter of 2009.

For the period April-June 2010, consolidated net revenues totaled MSEK 29.1 (29.6).

During the second quarter, Orexo entered an alliance and license agreement with Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc. The research alliance funding component of this agreement runs initially for three years. The non-recurring compensation of MUSD 10 (MSEK 77.8) received on signing of the agreement will be distributed on a straight–line basis over that three-year period. This means that although cash flow for the quarter was positively impacted by the payment, only revenues corresponding to one month were recognized during the period. In addition, Orexo receives and recognizes compensation for the research alliance on a continuous basis over the period.

Royalty revenues from marketed products, excluding license revenues, increased by more than 50 per cent compared with the first six months of 2009

Royalty revenues from Abstral amounted to MSEK 19.5 in the first six months, compared with MSEK 3.0 in the year-earlier period. Royalty revenues for the period April–June 2010 totaled MSEK 11 . According to IMS statistics, figures for numbers of tablets sold from distributors to end customers increased by more than 30 percent during Q2 compared to Q1 2010.

Kibion AB's sales were largely flat on a constant currency basis, with sales converted into SEK of MSEK 19.7 (21.5). This slight reduction is principally due to the weakening of the Euro in 2010 compared to the same period 2009.

ProStrakan AB's sales rose to MSEK 11.8 (10.9), of which 50 per cent was recognized as sales by Orexo. Abstral's sales through ProStrakan AB grew to MSEK 1.7 (0.5).

License revenues amounted to MSEK 8.4 (89.3) and related to the approval of Abstral in Italy. License revenues from the year-earlier period primarily related to milestone compensation for the approval of Edluar in the US.

Royalty revenues from Edluar during the period were nil, due mainly to the fact that sales of Edluar in the first half were still supplied from inventory sold at the end of 2009. The sales trend for Edluar in the US remains positive albeit from a low base, growing by +45 % in Q2 compared to Q1 2010, resulting in total sales of 1 MUSD during Q2.

Net sales were distributed as follows:

Expenses and earnings

Selling expenses

Selling expenses for the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 16.2 (18.8) and for the period April-June 2010 to MSEK 8.8 (9.5).

Selling expenses included business development expenses relating to the outlicensing of Orexo's projects, phase IV studies, and operations in Kibion AB and the joint venture company ProStrakan AB.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses for the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 19.3 (22.1). Lower expenses were related to cost cuts implemented in 2009 and that achieved full effect as of January 1, 2010. For the April-June 2010 period, administrative expenses amounted to MSEK 10.5 (11.3).

Research and development costs

Research and development costs for the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 78.1 (125.0). MSEK 12.1 (25.3) of these costs were reinvoiced during the period. Research and development costs for the period April-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 36.3 (58.9).

Lower costs were primarily related to the development of our product portfolio, which thus required less external research activities, but also to the cost cuts that were implemented in 2009 and that achieved full effect as of January 1, 2010.

Expenses for the company's employee stock options program

The company's expenses for the employee stock options program for the period January-June totaled MSEK 1.8, compared with MSEK 3.7 for the year-earlier period.

Other revenues and expenses

For the period January-June 2010, other revenues and expenses, primarily consisting of exchange-rate gains/losses, were MSEK 2.7 (loss: 1.7) and for the period April-June 2010 were MSEK 1.4 (1.1).

Depreciation/amortization

Depreciation/amortization for the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 4.0 (6.7) and for the period April-June 2010 to MSEK 2.0 (2.3).

Net financial items

Net financial items for the period January-June 2010 totaled an expense of MSEK 4.2 (income: 4.6). Net financial items include interest expenses of MSEK 2.9 related to the convertible loan, and unrealized losses in the share price and other credit expenses. Net financial items for the year-earlier period included income of MSEK 3.9 that was attributable to the fact that the second instalment payment in conjunction with the acquisition of PharmaKodex entailed that this be categorized as an embedded derivative, resulting in a positive earnings effect of a declining stock market price.

Tax

Tax revenues (deferred tax) for the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 0.0 (0.2).

Earnings

The operating loss for the period January-June 2010 was MSEK 58.7 (loss: 35.3). The loss after net financial items was MSEK 62.9 (loss: 30.7) and the loss after tax was MSEK 62.9 (loss: 30.5).

For the period April-June 2010, the operating loss totaled MSEK 32.0 (loss: 55.4). The loss after net financial items was MSEK 35.3 (loss: 56.9) and the loss after tax was MSEK 35.3 (loss: 56.8).

Financial position

At June 30, 2010, cash and cash equivalents amounted to MSEK 190.9 (137.2), while the corresponding figure at March 31, 2010 was MSEK 50.4. The increase is attributable mainly to the non-recurring compensation from Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc and to the convertible bond loan issued by Orexo during the quarter.

The convertible bond issue, which took place on April 7, has been recognized in the form of a liability share and an equity share, based on the fair value of the liability share. The division into both of these components was based on market interest rates of 10.5 per cent calculated from the option pricing model for the equity component.

Related transaction expenses were allocated proportionally to both of these components in relation to how the issue proceeds were distributed.

The convertible bond has a conversion rate of SEK 47.50, entailing a premium of about 25 per cent compared with the closing rate on March 12, 2010 of SEK 37.90, and is connected to an option that entitles Orexo AB to convert the loan when the share price exceeds the conversion rate by 50 per cent during a certain period. The convertible bond bears an annual rate of interest of 8 per cent. If the loan is not converted to shares, it shall be repaid not later than March 31, 2015.

Cash flow from operating activities for the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 11.2 (neg: 74.4). Cash flow after financing was MSEK 104.3 (neg: 50.7). During the period, current liabilities rose by MSEK 88. One of the reasons for this increase is the non-recurring compensation of MUSD 10, which has been retained to be distributed over a three-year period.

Cash flow from operation activities for the period April- June 2010 amounted to MSEK 27,7 (-11,8). Cash flow after financing was MSEK 138,1 (-12,7).

At June 30, 2010, shareholders' equity totaled MSEK 498.8 (581.6). The equity/assets ratio was 65 per cent (84 per cent).

Current funds will support all the three new development programs outlined below through clinical Phase I, and at least one of these programs through to approval, even in the absence of additional milestones from partnered discovery and development programs. Accordingly, it is the Board's assessment that the current level of financing is sufficient to pursue operations.

Investments

Gross investments in tangible fixed assets during the period January-June 2010 amounted to MSEK 2.1 (1.1) and for the period April-June 2010 to MSEK 0.8 (0.9).

Product portfolio

Three new development programs

A Phase I clinical study with OX219 has been initiated. Two additional new development programs, OX51 and OX27, targeted for different pain indications, have been initiated and will enter the clinic in Q4 2010 and in Q1 2011 respectively. Further information is presented in a separate release on www.orexo.com.

Parent Company

Most of the Group's business is carried out in the Parent Company, Orexo AB. Net revenues for the period January-June 2010 totaled MSEK 39.9 (110.1), with the loss after financial items amounting to MSEK 59.5 (loss: 24.9). Investments totaled MSEK 2.1 (1.1). Cash and cash equivalents in the Parent Company at June 30, 2010 totaled MSEK 161.0 (9.4), with current investments amounting to MSEK 0.0 (0.0).

Significant risks and uncertainties

Significant risks and uncertainties are detailed in the 2009 Annual Report. Since the Annual Report was published, significant changes have occurred as described below.

Financial risks

As a result of the implementation of the convertible loan, generating proceeds of MSEK 111 before expenses, and of the revenues in conjunction with the outlicensing of the OX-CLI and OX-ESI projects to Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Janssen Pharmaceutica NV (collectively "OMJ"), Orexo's financial risks have decreased significantly.

Share and market value

Orexo's share traded at SEK 40.9 at June 30, 2010. The company's market capitalization, based on the number of shares outstanding on June 30, 2010, amounted to MSEK 957.1.

Review report

We have reviewed the appended report for the period January 1 to June 30, 2010 for Orexo AB (publ). The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim report in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and IAS 34. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this interim report based on our review.

We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, as issued by FAR. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different direction and is substantially more restricted in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden RS and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the appended interim report has not in all significant respects been compiled in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and IAS 34 and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.

Notes

1. Accounting policies

This interim report was prepared pursuant to IAS 34. Orexo applies IFRS as approved by the EU.

The accounting principles stated below are the same as those applied in the preparation of the 2009 Annual Report.

During the period, Orexo issued a convertible bond. This compound financial instrument is initially recognized in the following manner: the liability share is measured at fair value and the equity share as the difference between the fair value of the entire convertible bond less the portion recognized as a liability. Transaction expenses have been allocated to the liability share and equity share in proportion to the value initially recognized.

The Parent Company's financial statements were prepared in accordance with RFR 2.2 (Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council's recommendation) and chapter 9 of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

New and amended accounting policies as of 2010

No new or revised IFRS have come into effect that are expected to have any significant impact on the Group.

The list below shows the change in the number of options during the period January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2010 distributed by category.

1 All information regarding options issued by Orexo AB has been restated to take into account the 1:250 share split conducted in November 2005. The 2005 Annual Report states that older option certificates provide entitlement to subscribe for 250 shares after the split. The reported data regarding options issued by Orexo AB refer to the number of shares to which each option provides entitlement to subscribe for shares following the share split. All data regarding options issued by Biolipox AB are restated using a factor of 0.45854, which corresponds to the computed value of the options related to the share price for the Orexo share on the acquisition date. The reported data regarding the options issued by Biolipox refer to the number of shares for which each option may be exchanged after recalculation.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

During the period January-June 2010, no employee stock options from Orexo's options program were exercised. During the period January-June 2010, 56,461 of Biolipox' employee stock options were exercised, entailing that holders exercised their options in exchange for 56,461 shares held by the independent company Pyrinox AB. Exercise did not entail any new share issues by Orexo.

On January 1, 2010, the 926,000 warrants pertaining to the additional purchase consideration for the Biolipox acquisition expired. They could have been exercised if certain events had occurred before December 31, 2009, but since these events never occurred, the warrants expired.

Costs for the program pertain to the expected cost of the value of employee earnings during the period, as measured at market value on the date of distribution, and to the portion of estimated social security expenses related to the increase in value that were earned during the period. The company will have to pay social security expenses on gains that may arise in connection with the exercise of employee stock options, calculated as the difference between the redemption price of the employee stock options and the market value of the share. All things being equal, this means that a rise in the share price during the quarter increases the costs of the estimated social security fees.

The social security fees that may arise due to the employee stock option have been hedged financially and thus also in terms of cash flow through the issuance of warrants to a subsidiary of Orexo. This hedging does not qualify for hedge accounting in accordance with IFRS.

Allotment of Board member options in May 2010

In May 2010, a total of 23,316 Board member options were allotted that provide entitlement to subscribe for a total of 23,316 shares in Orexo. These Board member options have been allotted free of charge to the Board members elected at the 2010 AGM. Vesting of the Board member options takes the form of 25 percent after the date for the publication of Orexo's interim report for the first quarter and 25 percent after the publication of the interim reports for quarters two to four during the mandate period for the 2010 financial year. The right of Board members to request exercise arises two years after the 2010 AGM. The final exercise date for Board member options is December 31, 2017 and the strike price is SEK 0.40 per share. The market value, calculated using the Black & Scholes method, was SEK 37.86 on the allotment date.

6. Pledged assets and contingent liabilities

In the acquisition of Inflazyme in November 2007, a supplemental payment was agreed contingent on certain goals being met. MSEK 11.1 of the supplemental payment is reported as a provision and MSEK 38.5 was reported as a contingent liability, since the latter is not assessed as a probable payment based on pharmaceutical development statistics. The supplemental payment was adjusted for changes in exchange rates during the year. As cash-flow hedging for social security fees pertaining to the employee stock options issued by Biolipox, warrants were issued to Pyrinox AB. Orexo has pledged to handle any deficits exceeding the cover provided by the warrants during their lifetime through December 31, 2016.

Orexo acquired the British drug company PharmaKodex in February 2009. This corporate acquisition also includes conditional payments based on revenues from licenses for the current PharmaKodex program and technologies, as well as being based on payments for certain milestones, which are not reported as a liability.

The overdraft facility of MSEK 35 that was secured from Nordea during the period led to a rise in chattel mortgages to MSEK 44 and pledging of all shares of Kibion AB.
