"Recent acquisitions and organic growth, combined with cost reduction initiatives and efficiency efforts, contributed to our continued strong performance.

With the addition of Gadea Pharmaceuticals, we've tripled the number of commercial APIs in our portfolio, providing us with a solid foundation in our API business in targeted segments. These APIs are approved and sold globally, providing us expanded market access for the rest of our portfolio.

Our integrated drug discovery center in Buffalo NY is now operational to meet the demands of customers who are looking for a US-based discovery service offering. The integration of biology and chemistry along with state of the art technology and our informatics partnership with PerkinElmer, as well as the high caliber of talent we are recruiting, will facilitate fast data turnaround and program progression.

Outsourcing trends continue to expand, and as industry assets and capacity continue to shift, we see opportunities for AMRI. As we continue to grow, we will continue to integrate, align and scale our capabilities and asset base to respond to our customer's expanding needs as we look to be a leading provider of discovery services, API and drug product to the industry."

Third Quarter 2015 Results

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $104.6 million, an increase of 67% compared to total revenue of $62.5 million reported in the third quarter of 2014.

Total contract revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $101.4 million, an increase of 76% compared to total contract revenue of $57.5 million reported in the third quarter of 2014. Adjusted contract margins were 25% for the third quarter of 2015, compared with 8% for the third quarter of 2014. Margins benefited from recent acquisitions, product mix within the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) segment and the impact of the cost reduction initiatives and facility optimization activities.

Royalty revenue in the third quarter of 2015 was $3.2 million, a decrease of 35% from $5.0 million in the third quarter of 2014 due primarily to lower royalties on Allegra (fexofenadine) products which have ended. Royalty revenue for the third quarter of 2015 includes royalties from the net sales of certain amphetamine salts sold by Allergan (formerly Actavis) and royalties from net sales of an API sourced in Spain.

Net loss under U.S. GAAP was $(4.2) million, or $(0.12) per share, in the third quarter of 2015, compared to U.S. GAAP net loss of $(8.6) million, or $(0.27) per share for the third quarter of 2014. Net income on an adjusted non-GAAP basis in the third quarter of 2015 was $5.1 million or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $(0.6) million or $(0.02) per diluted share for 2014. For a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP net income and earnings per diluted share as reported to adjusted net income and earnings per diluted share for the 2015 and 2014 reporting periods, please see Tables 2 and 3 at the end of this press release.

Beginning in the second quarter 2015, AMRI implemented an updated non-GAAP definition, which includes the impact of cash interest expense and excludes the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation, both of which had previously been excluded and included, respectively in the Company's calculations of these non-GAAP financial measures. These changes have redefined non-GAAP cost of contract revenue, SG&A, interest expense, net income, and EBITDA financial measures from the prior non-GAAP definition. We believe these financial measures provide investors with appropriate non-GAAP measurements that emphasize the cash earnings potential of the business and better reflect the underlying financial performance of the business. Historic non-GAAP reported operating results have been adjusted to match this new definition.

Year-to-Date Results

Total revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 was $275.9 million, an increase of 45% compared to total revenue of $190.0 million reported for the nine-month period of 2014.

Royalty revenue in the first nine months of 2015 was $14.2 million, a decrease of 29% from $20.0 million in 2014 due primarily to lower royalties on Allegra (fexofenadine) products. Royalty revenue for the first nine months of 2015 includes royalties from the fexofenadine products, royalties from the net sales of certain amphetamine salts sold by Allergan and royalties from the net sales of an API sourced in Spain. Net loss under U.S. GAAP was $(4.1) million, or $(0.12) per share, in the first nine months of 2015, compared to U.S. GAAP net loss of $(1.4) million, or $(0.05) per share in 2014.

    (1) Refer to Table 1 included in this release for the reconciliation of U.S. GAAP contract gross loss and contract gross margin to adjusted contract gross profit (loss) and
     adjusted contract gross margin as a percentage of contract revenue.

Drug Product Manufacturing contract revenue for the third quarter of 2015 increased $12.2 million or 124% compared to the third quarter 2014, and includes $4.1 million of revenue from the Glasgow facility that was acquired in January 2015. Drug Product adjusted contract margins for the third quarter of 2015 increased 3 percentage points, driven primarily by the addition of the Glasgow business. In the third quarter 2014, Drug Product contract revenue and gross margin were impacted due to a business disruption at the Albuquerque facility.

For the first nine months of 2015, Drug Product contract revenue increased $47.1 million, due primarily to increased revenue at the Albuquerque facility and the addition of $11.5 million in revenue from Glasgow. Drug Product adjusted gross margins improved 17 percentage points, due to the addition of the Glasgow business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2015, AMRI had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $82.4 million, compared to $45.6 million at June 30, 2015. The increase in cash and cash equivalents for the quarter ended September 30 2015 was primarily due to cash generated by operating activities of $18.5 million, net proceeds from debt financing of $16.3 million, and $11.0 million from the Gadea acquisition, which was partially offset by $6.1 million in capital expenditures. Total common shares outstanding, net of treasury shares, were 35,497,776 at September 30, 2015.

Readers should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to, trends in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies' outsourcing of manufacturing services and chemical research and development, including softness in these markets; the success of the sales of the products for which the company receives royalties; the risk that the company will not be able to replicate either in the short or long term the revenue stream that has been derived from the royalties payable under the Allegra® license agreements; the risk that clients may terminate or reduce demand under any strategic or multi-year deal; the company's ability to enforce its intellectual property and technology rights; the company's ability to obtain financing sufficient to meet its business needs; the company's ability to successfully comply with heightened FDA scrutiny on aseptic fill/finish operations; the results of further FDA inspections; the company's ability to effectively maintain compliance with applicable FDA and DEA regulations; the company's ability to integrate past or future acquisitions, including the Gadea Pharmaceutical Group, Aptuit West Lafayette and Glasgow operations, Cedarburg Pharmaceuticals and Oso Biopharmaceuticals Manufacturing, and make such acquisitions accretive to the company's business model, the company's ability to take advantage of proprietary technology and expand the scientific tools available to it, the ability of the company's strategic investments and acquisitions to perform as expected, as well as those risks discussed in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2015, and the company's other SEC filings. All financial guidance offered by senior management today represents a point-in-time estimate and are based on information as of the date of this press release.

Non-GAAP Adjustment Items

To supplement our financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we have presented non-GAAP measures of contract gross profit, contract gross margin, income from operations, and net income and income per diluted share as adjusted to exclude certain impairment charges, restructuring charges, executive transition costs, non-cash debt interest and amortization charges, business acquisition costs, share-based compensation expense, non-recurring professional fees, ERP implementation costs, depreciation and amortization of purchase accounting adjustments, write-offs of deferred financing costs, insurance recoveries, non-recurring income tax adjustments, and postretirement benefit plan settlement gains in the 2015 and 2014 periods. We have also presented non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA, which in addition to the items excluded above, further excluded the impact of interest income and expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and income tax expense or benefit. Exclusion of these non-recurring items allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time. We believe presentation of these non-GAAP measures enhances an overall understanding of our historical financial performance because we believe they are an indication of the performance of our base business. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as a basis for evaluating our financial performance as well as for budgeting and forecasting of future periods. For these reasons, we believe they can be useful to investors. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) or income (loss) per diluted share, prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in Tables 1-3.
