CEO's comments

2013 has started at a fast pace. After the agreement with ProStrakan in 2012, we have evaluated the commercial alternatives for Abstral® on the US market. In March, we were pleased to present the result – the sale of the Abstral rights in the USA to Galena Biopharma, Inc., a committed partner that is wellpositioned to achieve similar sales growth for Abstral in the USA as in Europe.

The sale of Abstral means that we initially received USD 10 million and will receive a further USD 5 million within twelve months. In addition, there will be future royalties and milestone payments. The agreement with ProStrakan from June 2012 has been central for the financing of the development and commercialization of Zubsolv™ and will give us net payments of over MSEK 700. At the same time, we are very satisfied that the success of Abstral in Europe has continued with unabated strength. Sales increased by 26 percent compared with the corresponding period in 2012.

Our most important strategic and operational objective for the year is a successful launch Zubsolv™ in the USA. We expect that the FDA's decision regarding approval will be notified at the beginning of July and, as previously announced, we are planning for a launch in September. In order to prepare the launch, we initiated manufacturing at our contract manufacturer's facility in the USA during the first quarter. In addition we are entering into the necessary agreements for sales and distribution in order to secure that deliveries can start as soon as the product is approved. We are preparing the launch in the USA and are discussing different partnership solutions. The feedback from customers in the US market is very positive to Zubsolv and in September, irrespective of the structure, we will be ready for the most important launch in the history of Orexo.

Two generic Suboxone tablets have been launched on the American market during the first quarter. This was expected and does not change our launch plans or the anticipated market share. We still believe that our formulation has such great advantages for the patients that our vision of Zubsolv becoming a leading product and of reaching a turnover of MUSD 500 is unchanged. The competition from the two generic products is so far negligible, with list prices currently twenty percent higher than the price of the branded Suboxone Film. The Suboxone Film today accounts for 85% of the total market and will be main competitor of Zubsolv.

During the first quarter we have continued our work of developing further taste alternatives and further strengths for Zubsolv in order to strengthen the product's long-term competitive advantage and to create a broad selection of product variants that will suit all patients.

With this quarter showing a positive EBIT, we have taken an important step forward towards reaching a sustainable profitability at the end of the year.

I eagerly look forward to the near-term strategic events when Orexo begins its new commercial phase, something that we are well equipped for, both in terms of competence and financially.

Development programs

Zubsolv™ – opioid dependence

In September 2012 a New Drug Application was submitted in the USA to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, FDA. The estimated approval date is July 6, 2013. If this time plan is followed, a product launch is planned for September 2013.

In addition to the work at our production unit in Uppsala, our contract manufacturer in the US has begun production of Zubsolv ahead of the planned launch in September. Furthermore, we have developed child-resistant packages and systems that will enable traceability of the Zubsolv tablets on the market. This has been done to increase safety and to reduce the risk of diversion and abuse of Zubsolv. The entire distribution chain is being put into place and irrespective of the commercialization structure in the US, we are ready to supply patients with the product in September 2013.

During the fourth quarter of 2012, a comparative acceptance study between Zubsolv and Suboxone® Film was carried out. The study showed that 9 out of 10 participants would choose Zubsolv rather than Suboxone Film for daily treatment. This important study for Orexo will be presented at the end of April in Chicago at the largest and most important congress of the year for specialists in dependence medicine in the USA, ASAM (American Society of Addiction Medicine).

In parallel with the New Drug Application in the USA, Orexo is further developing Zubsolv. Three clinical studies are being initiated during the first half of 2013 to investigate the potential of using Zubsolv in initiation of treatment, and how well patients comply with the Zubsolv treatment, but also to further document patients' preference and health economic aspects. These studies will be ongoing during the launch of Zubsolv and the results are expected during 2014. With these studies, the documentation of Zubsolv och thus the advantages of Orexo formulation were strengthened.

Orexo assesses that Zubsolv has great market potential due to its unique properties in a rapidly growing market with great medical needs and a positive view of politicians and authorities in the USA regarding the medical treatment of opioid dependence. The company estimates that the product's market potential corresponds to annual sales of up to USD 500 million.

In February the American government classified opioid dependence as "essential healthcare" which should be covered by all insurance companies in the US. American experts assess that this, in combination with the ongoing healthcare reform in the USA, will double the number of patients receiving treatment for their dependence during 2014*. As only 10% of Americans who are opioiddependent receive adequate treatment today, we assess that the market will grow rapidly during the coming years. There are already more than 5 million Americans who today are opioid-dependent and access to paid diagnosis and treatment is important for the continued development of the market.

OX51 – prevention of acute episodes of intense pain

OX51 is a proprietary sublingual tablet formulation of alfentanil, the first oral alfentanil product for the prevention of acute intense pain episodes in connection with diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. A clinical study was performed during the first half of 2012 where the results confirmed the choice of formulation for the ongoing phase II study, which was begun during autumn 2012. The study comprises approximately 200 patients undergoing prostate biopsies. It is estimated that the results from this European study will come during the summer of 2013 and will be important data for future development.

OX27 – breakthrough pain in cancer patients

OX27 is designed to improve the treatment of breakthrough pain in cancer patients. The preparation is a fast-acting sublingual formulation of an existing treatment.

The OX27 project has been dormant since the spring of 2012 and will not be pursued during 2013. The reason is that the company's resources have to a large extent been focused on Zubsolv™ and its further development.

Collaboration projects

OX-MPI – PGE2 inhibition (Prostaglandin E2)

The aim is to develop a completely new pharmaceutical class based on Orexo's prostaglandin research. The OX-MPI project is in the preclinical phase and evaluation of potential clinical strategies is ongoing. Boehringer Ingelheim has sole responsibility for all research and development and commercialization of future products. Boehringer Ingelheim will make payments to Orexo as and when certain milestones are achieved. In addition to this, royalty is to be paid on future sales.

OX-CLI – respiratory diseases

Orexo entered into a collaboration agreement with AstraZeneca in January 2013 regarding OX-CLI, a preclinical program for potential new treatment of respiratory tract diseases. Under the agreement AstraZeneca gains the rights to perform extensive preclinical research and evaluation of substances in Orexo's OX-CLI program. AstraZeneca also has an option to acquire all substances linked to the program. Transfer and a licensing agreement will then be agreed on by the parties, whereby Orexo will receive milestone payments during the development phase and royalty payments based on future revenues. AstraZeneca is responsible for all development costs for the project.

OX17 – gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

The licensing agreement regarding OX17, which was entered into by Novartis AG and Orexo in 2009, was terminated in February 2013. Orexo will not continue development of the program.

Launched products

Abstral®

In March Orexo sold Abstral in the USA to Galena Biopharma, Inc. Orexo initially received USD 10 million and will receive a further USD 5 million within twelve months. Furthermore, low double digit royalties will be paid, and payments will be made when certain milestones based on predetermined sales levels are reached. This sale means that Orexo has secured net payments related to Abstral of more than MSEK 700 over the past twelve months. To this should be added future milestone and royalty payments.

Abstral continues its positive development in Europe and grew by 26% during the first quarter compared with the corresponding period in 2012. At the present sales rate Orexo will receive royalties for Abstral in Europe during 2013, for sales exceeding EUR 42.5 million.

Furthermore, Orexo will also receive royalties for Abstral in the future from other markets where the product is approved. We expect that Abstral will be launched shortly in additional markets. Next in line is Japan, where Orexo's partner Kyowa Hakko Kirin submitted a New Drug Application for KW-2246 (Abstral) at the end of 2012.

Edluar™

Sales of Edluar grew during the first quarter by 50% in the USA and Canada. Edluar is planned to be launched in Europe during 2013 by our global collaboration partner Meda AB.

5. Pledged assets and contingent liabilities

As the Inflazyme project has been discontinued, the entire supplementary purchase consideration of MSEK 43.1 is recognized as a contingent liability.

Warrants were issued to Pyrinox AB as cash-flow hedging for social security fees pertaining to the employee stock options issued by Biolipox. Orexo has pledged to handle any deficits exceeding the cover provided by the warrants during their lifetime through December 31, 2016.

Orexo acquired the UK drug company PharmaKodex in February 2009. This acquisition included conditional payments based on Orexo's possible use of the PharmaKodex technology in product development. As this has not been the case, these are not recognized as a liability.

Operations in PharmaKodex are being closed down. The acquired technology was written down in its entirety during 2011 and 2012.

6. Significant risks and uncertainties

Significant risks and uncertainties are presented in the Annual Report for 2012. The financial risk has decreased since the beginning of the year through the sale of Abstral® in the USA. There have been no other significant changes. The planned launch of Zubsolv in the USA during 2013 will entail risk exposure of an operational nature.
