• Net loss for the first quarter of 2013 was $11.6 million, or $0.21 per share, compared with net income of $7.6 million, or $0.14 per share, for the first quarter of 2012. The first quarter of 2013 includes one-time expenditures in the amount of $34.8 million, including licensing costs of $25 million for a transaction with Alnylam on the PCSK9 RNAi hypercholesterolemia program, a restructuring charge of $6.2 million, and $3.6 million of costs related to the Incline (IONSYS™ and Recothrom® transactions.

Glenn Sblendorio, President and Chief Financial Officer of The Medicines Company, stated, "First quarter 2013 revenue growth puts us on a positive trajectory this year and continues momentum from recent performance and net loss for the quarter is slightly better than our guidance. We also advanced our portfolio of acute and intensive care hospital medicines, as we recently completed enrollment in the oritavancin Phase 3 SOLO-2 trial and reported the positive results of the Phase 3 cangrelor PHOENIX trial. We also added to the portfolio three new assets, including the acquisition of IONSYS and the license of Recothrom and the PCSK9 program."

In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this press release also contains adjusted financial measures that we believe provide investors and management with supplemental information relating to operating performance and trends that facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to projected information. These adjusted measures are non-GAAP and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We typically exclude certain GAAP items that management does not believe affect our basic operations and that do not meet the GAAP definition of unusual or non-recurring items. Other companies may define these measures in different ways.
