Expansion of innovation Quarterly Statement First Nine Months 2017 (unaudited)

Evotec AG, 9M 2017, Publication date 08 November 2017

Forward-looking statement & General information

Information set forth in this presentation contains forward-looking statements, which involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements contained herein represent the judgement of Evotec as of the date of this presentation. Such forward-looking statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in these forward-looking statements. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any such statements to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

Note:

The 2016 and 2017 results are not fully comparable. The difference stems from the acquisitions of Cyprotex PLC ("Cyprotex"), effective 14 December 2016, and Aptuit, effective 11 August 2017. The results from Cyprotex are only included from 14 December 2016 onwards. The results from Aptuit are included from 11 August 2017 onwards. The accounting policies used to prepare this quarterly statement are the same as those used to prepare the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.

  • Liquidity position in 2017: Proceeds from capital increase with Novo Holdings A/S and own cash used for acquisition of Aptuit
  • Increase in intangible assets and goodwill resulting from Aptuit acquisition (still preliminary)1)
  • Increase in total stockholders' equity mainly due to capital increase; equity ratio of 49.4% (31 December 2016: 60.9%)
  • Increase in loans & finance leases following a senior debt bridge facility of € 140 m related to the Aptuit acquisition
  • Current liabilities mainly impacted by increased trade accounts payables, provisions and deferred revenues due to the Aptuit acquisition

1) The preliminary goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Aptuit amounts to € 218 m and

PAGE Evotec AG I Quarterly Statement 9M 2017 (unaudited) | 08 November 2017

was allocated to the EVT Execute segment. According to IFRS 3 and due to the preliminary assessment of valuation subjects for the acquisition of Aptuit, the initial accounting is provisional with regard to the purchase price, the opening balance sheet, the allocation of the purchase price and the determination of fair values. It will therefore be subject to material changes.

Cash flows from capital increase and operations utilised for growth investments

Cash flow – 9M 2017 versus prior-year period

  • Operating cash flow for 9M 2017 reduced compared to 2016 mainly due to a decrease in deferred revenues from Celgene as well as increased R&D tax credit receivables
  • Investing cash flow for 9M 2017 includes the acquisition of Aptuit and several equity investments
  • Cash flow from financing activities mainly impacted by the proceeds from capital increase in the amount of € 90.2 m, net and the € 140 m bridge loan to finance the Aptuit acquisition

1) Acquisition of Aptuit effective 11 August 2017, Guidance 2017 updated on 16 August 2017

2) Revenue guidance from 2017 onwards will be based on total Group revenues and no longer on revenues excluding milestones, upfronts and licences. Due to an increasing number of milestone bearing projects and factoring in a probability of success, total milestone-based revenues become more predictable and contribute more and more to the Company's total revenue and profitability.
