1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
Cephalon is an international biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the
discovery, development and marketing of innovative products to treat sleep and
neurological disorders, cancer and pain. In addition to conducting an active
research and development program, we market three products in the United States,
PROVIGIL(R) (modafinil) tablets [C-IV], ACTIQ(R) (oral transmucosal fentanyl
citrate) [C-II], and GABITRIL(R) (tiagabine hydrochloride), as well as a number
of products in various countries throughout Europe. We are headquartered in West
Chester, Pennsylvania, and have offices in Salt Lake City, Utah, and
internationally in France, the United Kingdom, Germany and Switzerland. Our
research and development headquarters are located in the United States. We
operate manufacturing facilities in France for the production of bulk
pharmaceuticals, including modafinil, which is the active drug substance
contained in PROVIGIL. We also operate manufacturing facilities in Salt Lake
City, Utah, for the production of ACTIQ for distribution and sale in the
European Union.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnote disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in our annual report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, which includes audited financial statements as of December
31, 2001 and 2000 and for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 2001. The results of our operations for any interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results of our operations for any other interim
period or for a full year.
Revenue Recognition
Product sales are recognized upon the transfer of ownership and risk of
loss for the product to the customer and are recorded net of estimated reserves
for contractual allowances, discounts and returns. The estimated reserves are
reviewed at each reporting period and adjusted to reflect data available at that
time. To the extent our estimates are inaccurate, we will adjust the reserves
which will impact the amount of product sales revenue recognized in the period
of the adjustment.
Income Taxes
We have provided for income taxes related to our foreign subsidiaries in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax
assets and liabilities for the expected tax consequences of temporary
differences between the tax and financial reporting bases of assets and
liabilities. We have a history of losses in our U.S. operations, which has
generated significant federal and state tax net operating loss (NOL)
carryforwards of approximately $344,139,000 and $147,620,000, respectively, as
of December 31, 2001. United States generally accepted accounting principles
require us to record a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset
associated with this NOL carryforward if it is more likely than not that we will
not be able to utilize the NOL carryforward to offset future taxes. Due to the
size of the NOL carryforward in relation to our history of unprofitable
operations, we have provided a full valuation allowance against this deferred
tax asset.

Group Lafon
On December 28, 2001, we completed our acquisition of the outstanding
shares of capital stock of Laboratoire L. Lafon and affiliated entities
(collectively "Group Lafon"). With this acquisition, we control worldwide rights
to modafinil, marketed under the trade name PROVIGIL in the United States. To
date, the acquisition has increased our product sales, improved gross margins
for PROVIGIL, improved profitability and provided us with important research and
development, commercial and manufacturing infrastructure in France.
The purchase price for Group Lafon was approximately $456,654,000, which
was funded in part by the proceeds of our December 11, 2001 offering of
$600,000,000 of 2.50% convertible subordinated notes due December 2006. Of the
purchase price, $450,000,000 was paid in cash to the sellers with the remainder
primarily representing transaction costs of the acquisition and severance
payments, partially offset by an estimate of the amount expected to be refunded
by the seller under the terms of the acquisition agreement. The purchase
accounting for the acquisition may be revised for up to one year from the
transaction date due to changes in assessments of contingencies and our
integration plans. All such amounts are expected to be paid or received in 2002.
The following unaudited pro forma information shows the results of our
operations for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2001 as though
the acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2001:

Basic and diluted net loss per common share: $ (0.20) $ (0.54)
The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and
are not necessarily indicative of the actual results of operations had the
acquisition taken place as of January 1, 2001, or the results that may occur in
the future. Furthermore, the pro forma results do not give effect to all cost
savings or incremental costs that may occur as a result of the integration and
consolidation of the acquisition.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) finalized
SFAS No.142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 142 no longer requires the
amortization of goodwill; rather, goodwill will be subject to a periodic
assessment for impairment by applying a fair-value-based test. In addition, an
acquired intangible asset should be separately recognized if the benefit of the
intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if
the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged,
regardless of the acquirer's intent to do so. Such acquired intangible assets
will be amortized over the period in which the economic benefits of the
intangible asset are consumed or otherwise used up. The new criteria for
recording intangible assets separate from goodwill did not require us to
reclassify any of our intangible assets. We have only recorded goodwill related
to our acquisition of Group Lafon effective December 28, 2001; therefore, our
transitional impairment test indicated that there was no impairment of goodwill
upon our adoption of SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002.
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations," which requires recognition of the fair value of
liabilities associated with the retirement of long-lived assets when a legal
obligation to incur such costs arises as a result of the acquisition,
construction, development and/or the normal operation of a long-lived asset.
SFAS 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement
obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable
estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are
capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and
subsequently allocated to expense over the asset's useful life. SFAS 143 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2002. The adoption of
this new standard will not have any impact on our current financial statements.
On January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This Statement provides new guidance on the
recognition of impairment losses on long-lived assets to be held

and used or to be disposed of and also broadens the definition of what
constitutes a discontinued operation and how the results of a discontinued
operation are to be measured and presented. The adoption of this new standard
has not had any impact on our current financial statements.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145 "Rescission of FASB Statements
No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections." This Statement amends or rescinds certain existing authoritative
pronouncements related to lease accounting in order to make various technical
corrections, clarify meanings, or describe applicability under changed
conditions. SFAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15,
2002. The adoption of this new standard will not have any impact on our current
financial statements.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Exit or
Disposal Activities." This Statement addresses the recognition, measurement and
reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities,
including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for pursuant to
the guidance in EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee
Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain
Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The Statement requires that costs
associated with exit or disposal activities be recorded at their fair values
when a liability has been incurred. SFAS No. 146 is effective for disposal
activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of this new standard
will not have any impact on our current financial statements.
2. JOINT VENTURE
In December 2001, we formed a joint venture with an unaffiliated third
party investor to fund additional commercial activities in support of PROVIGIL
and GABITRIL in the United States. In exchange for our transfer to the joint
venture of certain intellectual property and other rights related to these two
products, we received a Class B interest, representing a 50% interest in the
joint venture. In exchange for its contribution of $50,000,000 in cash to the
joint venture, the investor received Class A interests, also representing a 50%
interest in the joint venture.
As of December 31, 2001, the $50,000,000 investor's Class A interest was
recorded on our balance sheet as debt, and the joint venture's cash balance of
$50,000,000 was included in our balance of cash and cash equivalents.
On March 29, 2002, we acquired the investor's Class A interests and ended
the joint venture by the issuance and sale in a private placement of $55,000,000
aggregate principal amount of 3.875% convertible subordinated notes due March
2007. The notes are convertible into our common stock, at the option of the
holder, at a price of $70.36 per share. See "Note 7--Long-Term Debt."
The purchase of the investor's Class A interests in the joint venture
resulted in the recognition of an extraordinary charge of $7,142,000 on the
early extinguishment of debt during the first quarter of 2002. The following
table summarizes the calculation of this extraordinary charge:

----------- -----------
$49,173,000 $47,513,000
=========== ===========
Effective January 1, 2002, we changed our method of valuing inventories from
the first-in, first-out, or FIFO method, to the last-in, first-out, or LIFO
method. We recognized a charge of $3,534,000 in the first quarter of 2002 as the
cumulative effect of adopting the LIFO inventory costing method. The acquisition
of Group Lafon's manufacturing operations and the planned expansion of our
internal manufacturing capacity for ACTIQ has reduced and is expected to further
reduce our reliance on third party manufacturers. The expansion of our internal
manufacturing capabilities should allow us to benefit from efficiencies of scale
and lead to lower per unit inventory costs. The LIFO method will reflect these
expected changes to manufacturing costs on the statement of operations on a more
timely basis, resulting in a better matching of current costs of products sold
with product revenues.
Cost of product sales under the LIFO inventory costing method was $4,545,000
lower for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $9,033,000 lower for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 than it would have been under the FIFO method. If we
had adopted LIFO effective January 1, 2001, the effect on our statement of
operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 would have been
immaterial.

Europe and other countries worldwide. Other product rights increased as a result
of payments for the acquisition of additional product rights in Europe and other
countries worldwide.

a private placement of 3.875% Convertible Notes due March 29, 2007. The notes
were issued and sold to the purchaser in a transaction exempt from registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, because the offer and
sale of the notes did not involve a public offering.

We are obligated to pay interest on the notes at a rate of 3.875% per year
on each of April 15 and October 15, beginning October 15, 2002. The notes also
are convertible into our common stock, at the option of the holders, at a price
of $70.36 per share, subject to adjustment upon certain events.
The holders of the notes may elect to require us to redeem the notes on
March 28, 2005 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of
notes submitted for redemption, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In certain
other circumstances, at the option of the holders, we may be required to
repurchase the notes at 100% of the principal amount of the notes submitted for
repurchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
We issued these notes in connection with our acquisition of the Class A
interest held by our joint venture partner. See "Note 2--Joint Venture."
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
In February 2001, a complaint was filed in Utah state court by Zars, Inc.
and one of its research scientists, against us and our subsidiary Anesta Corp.
The plaintiffs are seeking a declaratory judgment to establish their right to
develop transdermal or other products containing fentanyl and other
pharmaceutically active agents under a royalty and release agreement between
Zars and Anesta. The complaint also asks for unspecified damages for breach of
contract, interference with economic relations, defamation and slander. We
believe that we have valid defenses to all claims raised in this action. In any
event, we do not believe any judgment against us will have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
We are a party to certain other litigation in the ordinary course of our
business, including matters alleging employment discrimination, product
liability and breach of commercial contract. However, we are vigorously
defending ourselves in all of these actions and do not believe these matters,
even if adversely adjudicated or settled, would have a material adverse effect
on our financial condition or results of operations.
Related party
In August 1992, we exclusively licensed our rights to MYOTROPHIN(R) for
human therapeutic use within the United States, Canada and Europe to Cephalon
Clinical Partners, L.P., or CCP. We developed MYOTROPHIN on behalf of CCP under
a research and development agreement. Under this agreement, CCP granted an
exclusive license to manufacture and market MYOTROPHIN for human therapeutic use
within the United States, Canada and Europe, and we agreed to make royalty
payments equal to a percentage of product sales and a milestone payment of
approximately $16,000,000 upon regulatory approval. We have a contractual
option, but not an obligation, to purchase all of the limited partnership
interests of CCP, which is exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events
following the first commercial sale of MYOTROPHIN. If, and only if, we decide to
exercise this purchase option, we would make an advance payment of approximately
$40,275,000 in cash or, at our election, approximately $42,369,000 in shares of
common stock or a combination thereof. If we discontinue development of
MYOTROPHIN, or if we do not exercise this purchase option, our license will
terminate and all rights to manufacture or market MYOTROPHIN in the United
States, Canada and Europe will revert to CCP, which may then commercialize
MYOTROPHIN itself or license or assign its rights to a third party. In that
event, we would not receive any benefits from such commercialization, license or
assignment of rights.

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
We compute income (loss) per common share in accordance with SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share." Basic income (loss) per common share is computed based on
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average
shares outstanding and the dilutive impact of common stock equivalents
outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of employee stock options and
restricted stock awards is measured using the treasury stock method. Common
stock equivalents are not included in periods where there is a loss, as they are
anti-dilutive. The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) and
weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and
diluted income (loss) per common share:

On December 28, 2001, we completed our acquisition of Group Lafon. As a
result, we now have significant sales, manufacturing, and research operations in
Europe. Prior to 2002, our European operations accounted for 2%, 3% and 6% of
total product sales for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, our European operations
accounted for approximately 24% of total product sales.
The following summarized information presents our revenues and long-lived
assets by geographic segment. We have determined that all of our European
operations have similar economic characteristics and may be aggregated into a

============ ===========
Revenues-- Product sales in the second quarter of 2002 increased 146%
over the second quarter of 2001. The increase is attributable to a number of
factors including:
. Sales of PROVIGIL increased 58% due to increased market
acceptance. A domestic price increase of 5% was effective June 1,
2002.
. Sales of ACTIQ increased 192%. After our merger with Anesta in
October 2000, we established a dedicated sales force for ACTIQ and
have made ongoing changes to our marketing approach that have
contributed to higher sales. A domestic price increase of 4.9%
effective March 1, 2002 also contributed to higher sales.
. Sales of GABITRIL increased 116% as a result of both increased
demand in the U.S. market and the initiation of sales efforts in
Europe in the first quarter of 2002 following our December 2001
acquisition of European rights to GABITRIL. Additionally, an
average increase in domestic prices of 9.8% effective March 1,
2002 contributed to the sales increase.
. Product sales generated by Group Lafon, which we acquired on
December 28, 2001, were $23,109,000 during the second quarter of
2002. The most significant product sales during the period were
$10,988,000 of SPASFON(R), used for biliary/urinary tract spasm
and irritable bowel syndrome, and $6,612,000 of FONZYLANE(R), used
for the treatment of insufficient arterial circulation in the
lower limbs. Additionally, sales include $2,644,000 of MODIODAL,
the trade name for modafinil in France.
Total other revenues were essentially unchanged from period to period.
Revenue recognized in the second quarter of 2002 under our licensing,
development and marketing collaboration with Sanofi-Synthelabo, which began in
October 2001, was partially offset by $3,500,000 of milestone revenues
recognized in the second quarter of 2001 upon receiving ACTIQ marketing
authorization in certain European countries and by a decrease in revenue
recognized
16
under the former research and development collaboration with Schwarz Pharma AG
which terminated as of June 30, 2001.
Cost of Product Sales-- The cost of product sales in the second quarter
of 2002 decreased to approximately 14% of product sales from approximately 21%
in the second quarter of 2001 due principally to the fact that PROVIGIL related
manufacturing profit and royalties paid by Cephalon to Group Lafon, following
our acquisition of Lafon, represent intercompany profits which are eliminated in
consolidation.
Research and Development Expenses--Research and development expenses
increased 50% to $31,401,000 in the second quarter of 2002 from $20,894,000 in
the second quarter of 2001. An increase of $6,494,000 is attributable to higher
expenditures on drug development costs in the United States for our compounds
that have progressed into later stages of development and also for
infrastructure costs to support the growing number of ongoing clinical trials,
including Phase II/III clinical studies for CEP-1347 and studies related to our
efforts to expand the label for PROVIGIL beyond its current indication. In
addition, we incurred $5,308,000 of research and development expenses at Group
Lafon in the second quarter of 2002.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses--Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 65% to $44,911,000 for the quarter ended June
30, 2002 from $27,291,000 for the second quarter of 2001. Group Lafon
represented $7,808,000 of this increase. In addition, we incurred an increase of
$4,250,000 in U.S. sales and marketing costs as a result of the expansion of our
field sales forces.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses--Depreciation and amortization
expenses increased to $8,042,000 in the second quarter of 2002 from $3,562,000
in the second quarter of 2001 due primarily to amortization expense of
$2,733,000 for intangible assets acquired in our acquisition of Group Lafon.
Other Income and Expense--Interest income increased by $731,000 from the
second quarter of 2001 due to higher average investment balances, partially
offset by lower average rates of return. Interest expense increased by
$5,646,000 from the second quarter of 2001 due primarily to interest recorded on
the increase in outstanding convertible subordinated notes.
Dividends on Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock-- In May 2001, the
holders of 2,344,586 shares of the 2,500,000 shares outstanding of our
convertible exchangeable preferred stock converted their preferred shares into
an aggregate of 6,541,394 shares of our common stock, in accordance with the
terms of the preferred stock. As an inducement to the holders to convert their
preferred stock prior to August 2001, when we were initially permitted to redeem
the preferred stock, we agreed to pay immediately all dividends accrued through
the date of conversion as well as all dividends that would have accrued on the
converted shares through the August 2001 redemption date. In the second quarter
of 2001, we recognized a regular quarterly dividend of $2,265,000 and an
additional $1,063,000 of dividend expense associated with the early conversion.
The remaining 155,414 shares of preferred stock outstanding at June 30, 2001
were converted into 433,604 shares of common stock in the third quarter of 2001.
Extraordinary Gain on Early Extinguishment of Debt-- In May 2001, we paid
$24,438,000 to Novartis Pharma AG for deferred obligations due to them under our
continuing November 2000 collaboration agreement. In connection with this
payment, we recorded an extraordinary gain on the early extinguishment of debt
of $3,016,000.

============ ============
Revenues-- Product sales in the first half of 2002 increased 140% over
the first half of 2001. The increase is attributable to a number of factors
including:
. Sales of PROVIGIL increased 60% due to increased market
acceptance. A domestic price increase of 5% was effective June 1,
2002.
. Sales of ACTIQ increased 192%. After our merger with Anesta in
October 2000, we established a dedicated sales force for ACTIQ and
have made ongoing changes to our marketing approach that have
contributed to higher sales. A domestic price increase of 4.9%
effective March 1, 2002 also contributed to higher sales.
. Sales of GABITRIL increased 71% as a result of both increased
demand in the U.S. market and the initiation of sales efforts in
Europe during the first quarter of 2002 following our December
2001 acquisition of European rights to GABITRIL. Additionally, an
average increase in domestic prices of 9.8% effective March 1,
2002 contributed to the sales increase.
. Product sales generated by Group Lafon, which we acquired on
December 28, 2001, were $45,306,000 during the first half of 2002.
The most significant product sales during the period were
$22,100,000 of SPASFON, used for biliary/urinary tract spasm and
irritable bowel syndrome, and $12,828,000 of FONZYLANE, used for
the treatment of insufficient arterial circulation in the lower
limbs. Additionally, sales include $5,258,000 of MODIODAL, the
trade name for modafinil in France.
Total other revenues increased by $9,495,000 or 52%. Revenue recognized
in the first half of 2002 under our licensing, development and marketing
collaboration with Sanofi-Synthelabo, which began in October 2001, was partially
offset by $3,500,000 in milestone revenues recognized in the second quarter of
2001 upon receiving ACTIQ marketing authorization in certain European countries
and by a decrease in revenue recognized under the former research and
development collaborations with Schwarz Pharma AG and TAP Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
which terminated as of June 30, 2001 and March 31, 2001, respectively.
Cost of Product Sales-- The cost of product sales in the first half of
2002 decreased to approximately 14% of product sales from approximately 21% in
the first half of 2001 due principally to the fact that PROVIGIL related
18
manufacturing profit and royalties paid by Cephalon to Group Lafon, following
our acquisition of Lafon, now represent intercompany profits which are
eliminated in consolidation.
Research and Development Expenses--Research and development expenses
increased 51% to $61,224,000 in the first half of 2002 from $40,505,000 in the
first half of 2001. An increase of $11,198,000 is attributable to higher
expenditures on drug development costs in the United States for our compounds
that have progressed into later stages of development and also for
infrastructure costs to support the growing number of ongoing clinical trials,
including Phase II/III clinical studies for CEP-1347 and studies related to our
efforts to expand the label for PROVIGIL beyond its current indication. In
addition, we incurred $10,346,000 of research and development expenses at Group
Lafon in the first half of 2002.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses--Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 65% to $85,195,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 from $51,656,000 for the first half of 2001. Group Lafon
represented $16,227,000 of this increase. In addition, we incurred an increase
of $9,847,000 in U. S. sales and marketing costs as a result of the expansion of
our field sales forces.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses--Depreciation and amortization
expenses increased to $16,335,000 in the first half of 2002 from $7,051,000 in
the first half of 2001 due primarily to amortization expense of $5,466,000 for
intangible assets acquired in our acquisition of Group Lafon.
Other Income and Expense--Interest income increased by $2,094,000 from the
first half of 2001 due to higher average investment balances, partially offset
by lower average rates of return. Interest expense increased by $15,824,000 from
the first half of 2001 due primarily to interest recorded on the increase in
outstanding convertible subordinated notes.
Income Taxes--Income taxes of $1,985,000 recorded in the first half of 2002
represent foreign income tax expense associated with our Group Lafon operations.
Dividends on Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock--In May 2001, the
holders of 2,344,586 shares of the 2,500,000 shares outstanding of our
convertible exchangeable preferred stock converted their preferred shares into
an aggregate of 6,541,394 shares of our common stock, in accordance with the
terms of the preferred stock. As an inducement to the holders to convert their
preferred stock prior to August 2001, when we were initially permitted to redeem
the preferred stock, we agreed to pay immediately all dividends accrued through
the date of conversion as well as all dividends that would have accrued on the
converted shares through the August 2001 redemption date. In the second quarter
of 2001, we recognized a regular quarterly dividend of $2,265,000 and an
additional $1,063,000 of dividend expense associated with the early conversion.
The remaining 155,414 shares of preferred stock outstanding at June 30, 2001
were converted into 433,604 shares of common stock in the third quarter of 2001.
Extraordinary Gain (Charge) on Early Extinguishment of Debt--The purchase
of the investor's Class A interests in the joint venture resulted in the
recognition of an extraordinary charge of $7,142,000 during the first quarter of
2002.
In May 2001, we paid $24,438,000 to Novartis Pharma AG for deferred
obligations due to them under our continuing November 2000 collaboration
agreement. In connection with this payment, we recorded an extraordinary gain on
the early extinguishment of debt of $3,016,000.
Cumulative Effect of Changing Inventory Costing Method from FIFO to LIFO--
Effective January 1, 2002, we changed our method of valuing inventories from the
first-in, first-out, or FIFO method, to the last-in, first-out, or LIFO method.
We recognized a charge of $3,534,000 in the first quarter of 2002 as the
cumulative effect of adopting the LIFO inventory costing method. The acquisition
of Group Lafon's manufacturing operations and the planned expansion of our
internal manufacturing capacity for ACTIQ has reduced and is expected to further
reduce our reliance on third party manufacturers. The expansion of our internal
manufacturing capabilities should allow us to benefit from efficiencies of scale
and lead to lower per unit inventory cost. The LIFO method will reflect these
19
expected changes to manufacturing costs on the statement of operations on a more
timely basis, resulting in a better matching of current costs of products sold
with product revenues.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The preparation of financial statements requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are developed and adjusted
periodically by management based on historical experience and on various other
factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual
results may differ from these estimates.
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and Note
1 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of our Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2001. Management considers the following
policies to be the most critical in understanding the more complex judgments
that are involved in preparing our consolidated financial statements and the
uncertainties that could impact its results of operations, financial position
and cash flows.
Revenue recognition--Product sales are recognized upon the transfer of
ownership and risk of loss for the product to the customer and are recorded net
of estimated reserves for contractual allowances, discounts and returns.
Contractual allowances result from sales under contracts with managed care
organizations and government agencies. The reserve for contractual allowances is
based on an estimate of prescriptions to be filled for individuals covered by
government agencies and managed care organizations with whom we have contracts.
Product returns are permitted with respect to unused pharmaceuticals based on
expiration dating of our product. The reserve for product returns is determined
by reviewing the history of each product's returns and by utilizing reports
purchased from external, independent sources which produce prescription data and
estimates of wholesale stocking levels and wholesale sales to retail pharmacies.
This data is reviewed to monitor product movement through the supply chain to
identify remaining inventory in the supply chain that may result in reserves for
contractual allowances or returns. To date, product returns have not been
material. The reserves are reviewed at each reporting period and adjusted to
reflect data available at that time. To the extent our estimates prove
inaccurate, we will adjust the reserves, which will impact the amount of product
sales revenue recognized in the period of the adjustments.
Other revenue, which includes revenues from collaborative agreements,
consists of up-front fees, ongoing research and development funding, milestone
payments and payments under co-promotional or managed services agreements.
Effective January 1, 2000, we adopted the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No.
101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" (SAB 101). In accordance with
SAB 101, non-refundable up-front fees are deferred and amortized to rev
