MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

Financial Highlights

Consolidated revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016

increased to $357.1 million from $42.4 million for the three months

ended June 30, 2015. The 2016 period includes revenue from

BioReference Laboratories and EirGen which were acquired in August and

May 2015, respectively. In addition, the 2016 period includes $50.0

million of revenue related to our license of RAYALDEE to VFMCRP.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $15.5 million

compared with net loss of $42.8 million for the 2015 period. Net

income (loss) during the three month periods include significant

non-recurring and non-cash activities, including

Upfront payment for the license of RAYALDEE to VFMCRP of

$50.0 million; and

Other income and (expense) was $5.1 million and ($16.8) million in

the 2016 and 2015 periods, respectively, primarily related to the

change in fair value of derivative instruments. The change in fair

value is principally related to an embedded derivative in OPKO’s

January 2013 convertible senior notes due in 2033.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $171.6 million

as of June 30, 2016.

Business Highlights

VFMCRP and OPKO Health Enter into License and Option Agreement for

OPKO’s RAYALDEE : OPKO entered into an agreement with VFMCRP

for the development and commercialization of RAYALDEE in

Europe, Canada, Mexico, Australia, South Korea and certain other

international markets for the treatment of secondary

hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with chronic kidney disease

(CKD) and vitamin D insufficiency. Under the terms of the agreement,

OPKO received an upfront payment of $50 million, and will receive up

to $232 million in regulatory and sales based milestones. In addition,

VFMCRP will pay OPKO tiered, double digit royalties on sales of the

product. OPKO and VFMCRP will also collaborate to develop and

commercialize a new dosage form of RAYALDEE for the treatment

of SHPT in dialysis patients. OPKO granted VFMCRP an option to acquire

rights to this dosage form for the US market; if exercised, OPKO will

receive up to $555 million in additional milestones and double digit

royalties.

RAYALDEE Approved in June 2016: The FDA approved RAYALDEE

extended release capsules for the treatment of secondary

hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in adults with stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney

disease (CKD) and serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels less than 30

ng/mL. RAYALDEE is a patented extended release product

containing 30 mcg of a prohormone called calcifediol

(25-hydroxyvitamin D3).

Transition Therapeutics: The acquisition of Transition

Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: TTHI, TSX: TTH), a Toronto based

biotechnology company, is expected to close during the third quarter

of 2016. Transition Therapeutics has two drugs in mid-stage clinical

development; TT401, a long acting GLP-1/glucagon dual agonist for the

treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity; and TT701, an orally

administered selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) being

developed for the treatment of certain features of androgen deficiency

without androgenic effects on the prostate gland.

reimbursement coverage negotiations continued: Reimbursement of

the 4Kscore test is progressing; pricing agreements are already

in place with several payors, and the Company is working to obtain a

positive coverage decision by its local Medicare administrator.

Through June 30, 2016, over 5,000 clinicians have utilized the test

and in the month of June, alone, over 5,300 4Kscore tests were

performed.

“Our improved financial performance this quarter was fueled by continued

growth in our diagnostics business through increases in patient volume

at BioReference Laboratories and its GeneDx unit, as well as continued

growth in the utilization of our innovative 4Kscore test for

predicting the probability of aggressive prostate cancer,” stated

Phillip Frost, M.D., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of OPKO. “We

were pleased with the FDA’s decision to approve RAYALDEE before

its PDUFA date, and we are building an impressive commercial team to

make this important medicine available to the large number of chronic

kidney disease patients suffering from SHPT. Other drug development

programs are progressing well and we anticipate having topline data from

our phase 3 clinical trial for long acting human growth hormone in

adults later this year. We also anticipate clinical data late this year

or early next year for our long acting Factor VIIa-CTP, as well as

clinical data for our Phase 1 clinical trial for long acting

oxyntomodulin. We look forward to the closing of the Transition

Therapeutics acquisition and adding Transition’s important products to

our robust late stage drug pipeline,” continued Dr. Frost.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking statements," as that

term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of

1995 (PSLRA), which statements may be identified by words such as

"expects," "plans," "projects," "will," "may," "anticipates,"

"believes," "should," "intends," "estimates," and other words of similar

meaning, including statements regarding expected financial performance,

our product development efforts and the expected benefits of our

products, including whether our ongoing and future clinical trials will

be completed on a timely basis or at all and whether the data from any

of our trials will support approval, validation and/or reimbursement for

our products, the expected timing for launch of our products in

development, including RAYALDEE and hGH-CTP, the expected timing of our

clinical trials, enrollment in clinical trials, and disclosure of

results for the trials, the timing of completion for our trials, our

ability to market and sell any of our products in development, including

RAYALDEE, the 4Kscore, and hGH-CTP, expectations about potential

milestone payments and royalties from our partners, our ability to

obtain broad reimbursement coverage for the 4Kscore test, increased

adoption rates for the 4Kscore by Urologists, our ability to increase

the number of 4Kscore tests performed, and expectations about the

Transition acquisition, including the closing date, as well as other

non-historical statements about our expectations, beliefs or intentions

regarding our business, technologies and products, financial condition,

strategies or prospects. Many factors could cause our actual activities

or results to differ materially from the activities and results

anticipated in forward-looking statements. These factors include those

described in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K filed and to be filed with

the Securities and Exchange Commission and in our other filings with the

Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as integration challenges

for Bio-Reference, EirGen, Transition, and other acquired businesses,

the risks inherent in funding, developing and obtaining regulatory

approvals of new, commercially-viable and competitive products and

treatments, that earlier clinical results of effectiveness and safety

may not be reproducible or indicative of future results, that the

4Kscore, RAYALDEE, Varubi™, hGH-CTP, and/or any of our compounds or

diagnostic products under development may fail, may not achieve the

expected results or effectiveness and may not generate data that would

support the approval or marketing of products for the indications being

studied or for other indications, that currently available

over-the-counter and prescription products, as well as products under

development by others, may prove to be as or more effective than our

products for the indications being studied. In addition, forward-looking

statements may also be adversely affected by general market factors,

competitive product development, product availability, federal and state

regulations and legislation, the regulatory process for new products and

indications, manufacturing issues that may arise, patent positions and

litigation, among other factors. The forward-looking statements

contained in this press release speak only as of the date the statements
