Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2019 was $232.5 million, or $4.05 per diluted share, compared to $214.6 million, or $3.49 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2018.

In the second quarter of 2019, the company recorded a one-time tax benefit of $112.3 million, or $1.96 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis, resulting from an intra-entity intellectual property asset transfer. This tax benefit has been excluded from adjusted net income and the related per share measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. In the second quarter of 2018, GAAP net income included an impairment charge of $42.9 million resulting from the company’s sale of its rights related to Prialt® (ziconotide) intrathecal infusion.

Corporate Updates
In July 2019, the company launched Sunosi™ (solriamfetol) in the U.S. after receiving a schedule IV designation from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). Sunosi is the first and only dual-acting dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor approved to improve wakefulness in adult patients with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) associated with narcolepsy or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

The company today announced the appointment of Neena M. Patil as General Counsel. Ms. Patil will oversee all legal matters for the company. Ms. Patil has been practicing law for nearly 20 years and was most recently Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary for Abeona Therapeutics Inc. Prior to Abeona, Ms. Patil was Vice President for Legal Affairs, Associate General Counsel and Assistant Corporate Secretary at Novo Nordisk and held various positions at other global pharmaceutical companies. Ms. Patil received a JD from the University of Michigan Law School, a Masters in Health Services Administration from the University of Michigan School of Public Health and an undergraduate Bachelor of Arts degree from Georgetown University.

Key Regulatory/R&D Updates
In June 2019, the Children's Oncology Group (COG) presented positive Phase 1/2 Vyxeos data at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) annual meeting in children and young adults with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Overall response rate1 was 81.1%, with 70% of patients achieving best response after cycle 1 with Vyxeos and the percent of patients who achieved minimal residual disease (MRD) negative status was 75% post-cycle 1 and 84% overall. Given the robust overall response rate, the company intends to discuss the data and its plans for regulatory submissions with health authorities.

In June 2019, Nippon Shinyaku Co., Ltd. announced that Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved the marketing authorization of Defitelio® injection 200mg (defibrotide sodium) for the treatment of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome/hepatic veno-occlusive disease.

In July 2019, the company acquired Redx Pharma plc’s (Redx) pan-RAF inhibitor program for the potential treatment of RAF and RAS mutant tumors. Under the terms of the agreement, the company made an upfront payment of $3.5 million.  Redx is eligible to receive up to $203 million in development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments from the company, and incremental tiered mid-single digit royalties, based on any future net sales.

In August 2019, the company announced positive results of a Phase 1 study for JZP-458, its recombinant crisantaspase product candidate, and plans to initiate a single-arm, pivotal Phase 2/3 study. JZP-458 is being evaluated as a potential treatment option for patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)/lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) who have had hypersensitivity to E. coli- based asparaginase products.

Erwinaze/Erwinase net product sales decreased 53% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 due to ongoing quality and supply issues at the sole manufacturer resulting in minimal supply during the quarter.

Defitelio/defibrotide net product sales increased 14% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to an increase in volumes.

Vyxeos net product sales increased 12% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to the ongoing EU launch.

Operating expenses changed over the prior year period primarily due to the following:
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 on a GAAP and on a non-GAAP adjusted basis primarily due to higher expenses related to the U.S. launch of Sunosi and an increase in headcount and other expenses to support expansion of the business.
Research and development (R&D) expenses increased in the second quarter of 2019 on a GAAP and on a non-GAAP adjusted basis primarily due to expenses related to the company's pre-clinical and clinical development programs and its partner programs.

Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
As of June 30, 2019, cash, cash equivalents and investments were $882.7 million and the outstanding principal balance of the company’s long-term debt was $1.8 billion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ financial results and guidance presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company uses certain non-GAAP (also referred to as adjusted or non-GAAP adjusted) financial measures in this press release and the accompanying tables. In particular, the company presents non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components, as well as certain non-GAAP adjusted financial measures derived therefrom, including non-GAAP adjusted gross margin percentage and non-GAAP adjusted effective tax rate. Non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components exclude from reported GAAP net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components certain items, as detailed in the reconciliation tables that follow, and in the case of non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure), adjust for the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments and the income tax benefit related to an intra-entity intellectual property asset transfer. In this regard, the components of non-GAAP adjusted net income, including non-GAAP cost of product sales, non-GAAP SG&A expenses and non-GAAP R&D expenses, are income statement line items prepared on the same basis as, and therefore components of, the overall non-GAAP adjusted net income measure.
The company believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to, and facilitates additional analysis by, investors and analysts. In particular, the company believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the company’s financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, can enhance investors’ and analysts' ability to meaningfully compare the company’s results from period to period and to its forward-looking guidance, and to identify operating trends in the company’s business. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are regularly used by investors and analysts to model and track the company’s financial performance. Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ management also regularly uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the company’s business and to make operating decisions, and compensation of executives is based in part on certain of these non-GAAP financial measures. Because these non-GAAP financial measures are important internal measurements for Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ management, the company also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and analysts since these measures allow for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics the company uses in assessing its own operating performance and making operating decisions.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures; should be read in conjunction with the company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP; have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, from time to time in the future there may be other items that the company may exclude for purposes of its non-GAAP financial measures; and the company has ceased, and may in the future cease, to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its non-GAAP financial measures. Likewise, the company

8



may determine to modify the nature of its adjustments to arrive at its non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions of non-GAAP financial measures, the non-GAAP financial measures as used by Jazz Pharmaceuticals in this press release and the accompanying tables have limits in their usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

“Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements related to Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ future financial and operating results, including its 2019 financial guidance, the company’s planned or expected 2019 milestones and the timing thereof, the company’s continuing activities to deliver innovative therapies to patients and value to shareholders, including its planned NDA for JZP-258, advancement of its R&D programs and potential approval of solriamfetol in the EU, the planned initiation of multiple Vyxeos studies, the planned initiation of a Phase 2/3 study for JZP-458, the company’s recombinant crisantaspase product candidate, the company’s intention to discuss data and plans for regulatory submissions with health authorities with respect to Vyxeos, planned activities under the company’s collaboration agreement with Redx, potential future payments to Redx, anticipated inter-quarter variability in Erwinaze net sales due to expected supply disruptions during the second half of 2019, the company’s expectations of inter-quarter variability in Defitelio net sales, potential expanded uses of Vyxeos, and other statements that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements are based on the company’s current plans, objectives, estimates, expectations and intentions and inherently involve significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of these risks and uncertainties, which include, without limitation, risks and uncertainties associated with: maintaining or increasing sales of and revenue from Xyrem; effectively commercializing the company’s other products and product candidates, including with respect to the recent commercial launch of Sunosi in the U.S. and potential launch in the EU; the time-consuming and uncertain regulatory approval process, including the risk that the company’s current and planned regulatory submissions, including the solriamfetol marketing authorization application in the EU and the planned JZP-258 NDA, may not be submitted, accepted or approved by applicable regulatory authorities in a timely manner or at all; costly and time-consuming pharmaceutical product development and the uncertainty of clinical success, including risks related to failure or delays in successfully initiating or completing clinical trials; protecting and enhancing the company’s intellectual property rights; delays or problems in the supply or manufacture of the company’s products and product candidates; the company’s ability to maintain rights to its products and product candidates, including Erwinaze; complying with applicable U.S. and non-U.S. regulatory requirements; government investigations and other actions; obtaining and maintaining adequate coverage and reimbursement for the company’s products; identifying and acquiring, in-licensing or developing additional products or product candidates, financing these transactions and successfully integrating acquired businesses; the company’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits of its collaborations with third parties for the development of product candidates; the company’s ability to achieve expected future financial performance and results and the uncertainty of future tax and other provisions and estimates; and other risks and uncertainties affecting the company, including those described from time to time under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports (Commission File No. 001-33500), including the company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and future filings and reports by the company, including the company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Other risks and uncertainties of which the company is not currently aware may also affect the company’s forward-looking statements and may cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from those anticipated.
