Allergan, Inc. (NYSE: AGN) (“Allergan” or the “Company”) today announced that it has filed an investor presentation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and posted the presentation under the “Investors” section of the Company’s website describing “Further Thoughts on Potential Business Risks and Issues with Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. (“Valeant”).” This is a follow on presentation to Allergan’s May 27, 2014 presentation, “Certain Potential Business Risks and Issues with Valeant,” and June 10, 2014 presentation, “Allergan: A Specialist in the Biopharmaceutical & Medical Device Industries.”

As previously announced, Allergan and important members of the investment community have raised serious concerns about Valeant’s anemic organic growth driven by unsustainable price increases, among other fundamental business model issues. Valeant has recognized that its current disclosures lack transparency and has committed to improving its disclosures. Allergan believes such improved disclosures are important, and expects those additional disclosures will confirm the concerns Allergan has raised with respect to Valeant’s business model.

Highlights of the presentation include:

  • Valeant has promised more transparency in financial disclosures

    In an investor presentation on June 17, 2014, Michael Pearson, chairman and chief executive officer of Valeant, stated he would improve financial and operational disclosures. Allergan also expects additional disclosures, including a full list and respective performance of the top 15 products (both $ and % growth, including price and volume detail), organic growth by segment, convergence in GAAP and Non-GAAP EPS and organic growth, organic growth metrics for Bausch & Lomb and segment reporting detailing business lines.
  • Valeant’s responses to many of Allergan’s concerns were not substantiated with transparent supporting data

    Valeant has yet to refute many of the concerns Allergan highlighted in its investor presentation filed with the SEC on June 10, 2014. When Valeant addressed these concerns, it neglected to provide either sufficient or transparent supporting data. According to Valeant, 13 of its top 15 products are growing; however, Valeant failed to deliver data supporting this claim. Allergan welcomes Valeant’s promise to disclose sales for its top 15 products and respective product performance (including price and volume detail) during the upcoming 2Q earnings call and going forward.
  • Valeant’s statements are inconsistent and demonstrates a lack of ability to forecast their business

    For nearly two years, Valeant’s management team, specifically, Michael Pearson and Howard Schiller, Valeant CFO, have provided inconsistent statements regarding Valeant’s products. Valeant has also demonstrated an inability to forecast branded drug sales, including Solodyn®, one of Valeant’s top five products, and generic deterioration.
  • Valeant’s view of “fast growing” therapeutics areas for Bausch & Lomb is inconsistent with reality

    Bausch & Lomb, which Valeant acquired in August 2013, appears to be losing market share in pharmaceuticals, lenses and intraocular lens. However, Valeant claims that the business is growing at a double-digit rate. Allergan looks forward to Valeant disclosing Bausch & Lomb’s true business performance, as Valeant has stated it will do, including sales by segment, market share, price and volume.
  • Medicis performance has deteriorated post-Valeant acquisition

    Most recently, Valeant completed the sale of its filler and toxin assets to Galderma, a disposition we believe is a desperate attempt by Valeant to disassociate itself from the rapid performance decline of the Medicis business’ injectable products. The poor performance of those products under Valeant is a striking example of the weaknesses of the Valeant model of rapid acquisitions, underinvestment and restructurings.

    We continue to believe Allergan’s franchises would be significantly at risk under Valeant’s ownership.
