To supplement its consolidated financial statements presented on a US
GAAP basis, Elan provides readers with EBITDA (Earnings Before
Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA,
non-GAAP measures of operating results. EBITDA is defined as net loss
from continuing operations plus or minus depreciation and amortization
of costs and revenues, provisions for income tax and net interest
expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus or minus
share-based compensation, net gains or losses on divestment of
products and businesses, other net gains or charges, net investment
gains or losses and net charge on debt retirement. EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA are not presented as and should not be considered alternative
measures of operating results or cash flow from operations, as
determined in accordance with US GAAP. Elan's management uses EBITDA
and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of Elan and
its business and these measures are among the factors considered as a
basis for Elan's planning and forecasting for future periods. Elan
believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are measures of performance used
by some investors, equity analysts and others to make informed
investment decisions. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used as
analytical indicators of income generated to service debt and to fund
capital expenditures. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not give effect to
cash used for interest payments related to debt service requirements
and do not reflect funds available for investment in the business of
Elan or for other discretionary purposes. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA,
as defined by Elan and presented in this press release, may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net loss from
continuing operations are set out in the tables above titled,
"Non-GAAP Financial Information Reconciliation Schedule."

Net Loss The net loss for the second quarter of 2006 amounted to $90.5 million, a decrease of 37% over the $142.6 million reported in the same quarter of 2005. The decrease in net loss is principally due to strong growth in product revenue, improved operating margins and the inclusion in 2005 of a charge associated with retiring debt early, partially offset by the impact of expensing share-based compensation in the second quarter of 2006 and the inclusion in 2005 of a gain on the divestment divestment to strip one's investment from an entity. of Zonegran Zonegran® Zonisamide Neurology An agent used to manage partial seizures in adults with epilepsy.

The adoption of SFAS 123R resulted in a charge for share-based compensation of $13.5 million for the second quarter of 2006, which is comprised of $1.1 million of cost of goods sold Cost of goods sold The total cost of buying raw materials, and paying for all the factors that go into producing finished goods. cost of goods sold , $8.1 million of selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense, and $4.3 million of research and development (R&D) expense.

Product Revenue Total product revenue increased 17% to $130.8 million in the second quarter of 2006 from $111.6 million recorded in the same quarter of 2005 primarily due to increased revenue from marketed products and manufacturing revenue and royalties, as further analyzed below. Revenue from marketed products Revenue from marketed products was $65.5 million in the second quarter of 2006, compared to $55.2 million recorded in the same period of 2005. The increase of 19% is due to higher sales of Maxipime Max·i·pime A trademark for the drug cefepime hydrochloride. cefepime hydrochloride Maxipime Pharmacologic class: Fourth-generation cephalosporin Therapeutic class: , Azactam A·zac·tam A trademark for the drug aztreonam. aztreonam Azactam Pharmacologic class: Monobactam Therapeutic class: Anti-infective Pregnancy risk category B and Prialt. Revenue from Maxipime for the quarter increased by 7% to $42.6 million from $39.9 million in the second quarter of 2005. Azactam revenue for the quarter increased to $20.0 million from $14.8 million in the second quarter of 2005, or 35%. These increases reflect increased demand. Azactam lost its patent exclusivity in October 2005 and its sales are expected to be negatively impacted by generic competition. However, to date no generic form of Azactam product has been approved. Revenue from Prialt for the second quarter of 2006 was $3.0 million, compared to $1.8 million recorded in the second quarter of 2005.

Except as noted above, no other product accounted for more than 10% of total manufacturing revenue and royalties in the second quarter of 2006 or 2005. Of the total of $56.8 million (2005: $47.7 million) in manufacturing revenue and royalties, 42% (2005: 35%) consisted of royalties received on products that were not manufactured by Elan. Amortized product revenue The results for the second quarters of 2006 and 2005 include $8.5 million of amortized revenue related to the licensing of rights to Elan's generic form of Adalat Ad·a·lat A trademark for the drug nifedipine.

The remaining unamortized revenue on these products of $18.2 million, which is included in deferred income, will be recognized as revenue through June 2007 (generic Adalat CC), and November 2006 (Avinza), reflecting Elan's ongoing involvement in the manufacturing of these products. Amortized revenue for the full-year 2006 is expected to be $30.7 million for these two products.

SG&A expenses, excluding depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation, related to the rest of the business decreased by 11% to $48.4 million in the second quarter of 2006 from $54.4 million in the second quarter of 2005, principally due to the inclusion in 2005 of litigation An action brought in court to enforce a particular right. The act or process of bringing a lawsuit in and of itself; a judicial contest; any dispute. When a person begins a civil lawsuit, the person enters into a process called litigation. related settlement costs of $8.0 million. The SG&A expenses related to Tysabri, excluding amortization and share-based compensation, were $20.8 million in the second quarter of 2006, compared to $17.9 million in the second quarter of 2005. R&D expenses were $52.6 million in the second quarter of 2006 (including $4.3 million of share-based compensation expense), compared to $64.3 million in the same period of 2005 (including $nil of share-based compensation expense). The decrease of 18% is primarily due to reduced expenses related to Tysabri and Prialt, offset by the impact of expensing of share-based compensation and increased development costs associated with our key Alzheimer's programs, including the AAB-001 Phase 2 trials and ACC-001 Phase 1 trial. Included in R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2006 is $7.1 million related to Tysabri (including $0.6 million of share-based compensation expense), compared to $19.5 million in the same period of 2005. The decrease principally reflects the completion of the Tysabri safety evaluation in 2005. Net Gain/Loss on Divestment of Products and Businesses The net loss on divestment of products and businesses in the second quarter of 2006 was $0.9 million, compared to a net gain of $21.0 million in the same period of 2005. The net gain in the second quarter of 2005 included consideration related to the divestment of Zonegran to Eisai Co. Ltd. in April 2004.

The $3.4 million charge in the second quarter of 2006 principally consists of a $7.0 million in-process research and development charge arising from an upfront payment under our recent alliance with Archemix (see page 14), offset by a net $3.6 million credit principally related to the reversal of previously provided costs for severance The act of dividing, or the state of being divided. The term severance has unique meanings in different branches of the law. Courts use the term in both civil and criminal litigation in two ways: first, when dividing a lawsuit into two or more parts, and second, when and restructuring activities. Net Interest and Investment Gains and Losses Net interest and investment losses were $28.4 million for the second quarter of 2006, compared to net interest and investment losses of $88.6 million for the same period of 2005. In the second quarter of 2006, net interest expense amounted to $27.2 million, compared to $34.7 million in the same period of 2005. Net interest expense decreased in the second quarter of 2006 over the corresponding period in 2005 primarily as a result of interest savings due to the early retirement of $242.8 million of debt in June 2005, and higher interest income earned on cash balances due to increased interest rates. During the second quarter of 2005, Elan incurred a net charge of $52.2 million as a result of the early retirement of $242.8 million of 2008 debt. Research & Development Autoimmune Tysabri - US In June 2006, Elan and Biogen Idec received the approval from the FDA to re-introduce Tysabri in the US as a monotherapy monotherapy /mono·ther·a·py/ (-ther´ah-pe) treatment of a condition by means of a single drug. mon·o·ther·a·py n.

Tysabri - Europe In June 2006, Elan and Biogen Idec received approval from the European Commission European Commission, branch of the governing body of the European Union (EU) invested with executive and some legislative powers. Located in Brussels, Belgium, it was founded in 1967 when the three treaty organizations comprising what was then the European Community to market Tysabri as a treatment for relapsing remitting MS to delay the progression of disability and reduce the frequency of relapses. Tysabri is indicated as a single disease modifying therapy in highly active relapsing remitting MS for patients with high disease activity despite treatment with a beta-interferon beta-interferon n. A family of glycoproteins that are produced by fibroblasts, have antiviral properties, and are used in the treatment of multiple sclerosis. or in patients with rapidly evolving severe relapsing remitting MS. Tysabri was launched in Germany, Ireland, UK and Sweden in July 2006 and will be launched in other EU countries over the next twelve months. Tysabri - Crohn's Disease Crohn's disease: see colitis.

Tysabri also met all secondary endpoints of clinical remission as defined by a CDAI score less than 150 at both weeks 8 and 12, clinical response at week 12 and clinical remission at week 12. In addition, significant response and remission rates were seen with Tysabri treatment by week 4. There were no notable differences in the overall rates of adverse events or serious adverse events between the Tysabri and placebo placebo (pləsē`bō), inert substance given instead of a potent drug. Placebo medications are sometimes prescribed when a drug is not really needed or when one would not be appropriate because they make patients feel well taken care of. treatment groups. The most common adverse events seen in both treatment groups were headache headache Pain in the upper portion of the head.
