Angus Russell, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“Shire delivered a strong first quarter with product sales from our diverse portfolio up 24%. Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS increased 22% in the quarter. Sales of our ADHD treatments INTUNIV, VYVANSE and ADDERALL XR were all up and the overall ADHD market in the US showed good growth (13%). GI sales performed well in the first quarter, driven by LIALDA.
 
Our rare disease treatments, particularly VPRIV and REPLAGAL, continued their success around the world with strong growth and represent 30% of our total product sales.

This quarter we were granted FDA approval of INTUNIV as adjunctive therapy to stimulants for ADHD, we filed our US complete response for FIRAZYR and were granted European approval for FIRAZYR self-administration. Our new HGT manufacturing site in Massachusetts is progressing as planned and we’ve now filed for European approval of REPLAGAL in this facility.

The successful advancement of our pipeline is driving increased investment in research and development. Early data from exploratory clinical trials for VYVANSE in potential new uses is very encouraging, including the most recent findings in negative symptoms of schizophrenia, announced today.  We have further plans for a study in binge eating disorder as well as the progression of our phase 3 program in major depressive disorder.  Our Carrier Wave Guanfacine program continues to make progress. We anticipate further pipeline news this year.

We have made a strong start to 2011, which underpins our previously stated financial guidance.”

·  
Product sales were up 24% to $889 million (Q1 2010: $718 million), driven by growth from VYVANSE® (up 31% to $202 million), LIALDA®/MEZAVANT® (up 37% to $87 million), REPLAGAL® (up 55% to $105 million) and VPRIV® (up $53 million to $59 million). On a constant exchange rate (“CER”) basis, which is a Non GAAP measure, product sales were up 24%.

·  
Total revenues were up 19% (CER: up 19%) to $972 million (Q1 2010: $816 million). Increased product sales were partially offset by lower royalties (down 23% to $74 million), due to lower royalty income from Impax Laboratories Inc’s (“Impax”) authorized generic version of ADDERALL XR® (down 59% to $17 million) as Q1 2010 included royalties on launch shipments not repeated in 2011.

·  
Non GAAP operating income was up 15% to $306 million (Q1 2010: $265 million). Higher total revenues were partially offset by higher operating costs in Q1 2011, as we have chosen to increase investment in research and development (“R&D”) to sustain the progression of our pipeline. In the first quarter, we have increased selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenditure to support our ongoing international expansion and anticipated future growth, and we also absorbed a full quarter's operating costs for Movetis and our commercial hub in Switzerland. On a US GAAP basis, operating income was up 22% to $267 million (Q1 2010: $218 million).
 
·  
Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS were up 22% to $1.23 (Q1 2010: $1.01), principally due to higher Non GAAP operating income and a lower quarterly Non GAAP effective tax rate of 22%. On a US GAAP basis, diluted earnings per ADS were up 25% to $1.11 (Q1 2010: $0.89).

·  
Cash generation, a Non GAAP measure, decreased by $68 million to $208 million (Q1 2010: $276 million). Cash generation in Q1 2011 was impacted by the timing and quantum of sales deduction payments, particularly for Medicaid, and lower Impax royalty receipts (Q1 2010 included royalty receipts for Impax’s initial Q4 2009 stocking). The effect of these items, together with the increase in operating expenditure, more than offset increased cash receipts from higher product sales in Q1 2011.

Free cash flow, also a Non GAAP measure, increased by $12 million to $155 million (Q1 2010: $143 million) as lower cash generation was more than compensated by lower cash tax payments in Q1 2011 compared to Q1 2010.

On a US GAAP basis, net cash provided by operating activities increased by $16 million to $202 million (Q1 2010: $186 million).

·  
Net debt at March 31, 2011 was $365 million (December 31, 2010: $531 million), a reduction of $166 million over the quarter.

2011 OUTLOOK

We have made a strong start to 2011, which underpins our previously stated financial guidance.

For the full year 2011 we continue to expect good product sales growth, in line with the growth rate achieved in 2010, driven by our young product portfolio, offsetting the impact of the sale of DAYTRANA last year.  We expect total royalty and other revenues to be down 10% compared to 2010. Gross margins we anticipate being at a similar percentage of product sales for the full year 2011 as seen in the first quarter.

We have identified significant opportunities for future growth both by advancing our pipeline and continuing the international expansion of our portfolio. As we support this growth, increase investment behind the positive progression of our pipeline and absorb a full year of Movetis's operating activities and the limited impact of US Healthcare reform, we expect the increase in combined Non GAAP R&D and SG&A compared to 2010 to be at the upper end of the 10 to 13% range. We continue to expect our Non GAAP effective tax rate to be between 22 and 24%.

Overall, the further operational leverage we expect to achieve will drive good earnings growth in 2011 and we reiterate our aspirational growth targets.

FIRST QUARTER 2011 AND RECENT PRODUCT AND PIPELINE DEVELOPMENTS

Products

VYVANSE/VENVANSETM – for the treatment of ADHD

·  
On April 18, 2011 Shire launched VENVANSE for the treatment of ADHD in children in Brazil, the first launch of lisdexsamfetamine dimesylate (marketed as VYVANSE in the US) outside of North America.

LIALDA – for the treatment of ulcerative colitis

·  
On February 10, 2011 Health Canada granted approval of LIALDA for the maintenance of remission of ulcerative colitis.

INTUNIV® – for the treatment of ADHD

·
On February 28, 2011 Shire announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) had approved the use of once-daily INTUNIV extended-release tablets as adjunctive therapy to stimulants for the treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 as part of a total treatment program.

REPLAGAL – for the treatment of Fabry disease

·  
REPLAGAL remains the global market leader for the treatment of Fabry disease. Shire expects to have manufacturing capacity to continue uninterrupted treatment for all patients currently on REPLAGAL and to continue to meet anticipated demand from new and switch patients in 2011.

·  
In April 2011, Shire filed for approval in Europe of the new manufacturing facility in Lexington, MA for the production of REPLAGAL. Approval will allow greater manufacturing flexibility. Shire has already cleared an important milestone with the successful inspection of the facility by European authorities in support of this submission.
 
VPRIV – for the treatment of Type 1 Gaucher disease
 
·  
Shire has seen rapid adoption of VPRIV worldwide, with market share of 34% in the US and 18% globally, and patients continue to initiate treatment. Approval of the new manufacturing facility in Lexington for VPRIV will provide substantial additional capacity; process validation runs are currently ongoing. Shire’s continuing priority is to ensure long-term, uninterrupted treatment for patients on VPRIV.

FIRAZYR – for the treatment of HAE

·
On March 3, 2011 Shire announced that the European Commission had approved FIRAZYR for self-administrated subcutaneous injections. FIRAZYR is the first and only treatment for acute Type I and Type II HAE attacks licensed for self-administration in Europe.

·  
On March 21, 2011 Shire announced that the FDA had assigned a Prescription Drug User Fee Act date of August 25, 2011 for the review of the New Drug Application (“NDA”) for FIRAZYR. This followed Shire’s submission of a complete response to the not approvable letter issued by the FDA regarding the NDA for FIRAZYR submitted by Jerini AG.

Pipeline

VYVANSE – for the treatment of other non-ADHD indications
 
·  
Data from a recently completed Phase 2 proof-of-concept clinical trial indicates a statistically significant improvement in negative symptoms of schizophrenia. In this 14-week, flexible dose, multi-center study with open-label and double-blind components, VYVANSE was administered as adjunctive therapy to clinically stable patients with predominant negative symptom schizophrenia and taking established maintenance doses of atypical antipsychotic medications, using an open-label, rater-blinded design. VYVANSE was well tolerated, and not associated with notable worsening of positive symptoms, or new vital sign, laboratory or ECG findings. No rebound or negative or withdrawal symptoms were found in the subsequent placebo-controlled, double-blind withdrawal portion of the study.
 

 
4

 
RESOLOR – for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation

·  
A Phase 3 clinical program has been initiated to assess the safety and efficacy of RESOLOR in the treatment of opioid-induced constipation in patients with chronic, non-cancer pain.
 

OTHER FIRST QUARTER DEVELOPMENTS

Paragraph IV Notice Letter for ADDERALL XR
 
·  
In February 2011, Shire was notified by Watson Laboratories, Inc. (“Watson”) that it had submitted an Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) under the Hatch-Waxman Act seeking permission to market a generic version of all approved strengths of ADDERALL XR. This new ANDA is not covered under the existing settlement agreements entered into in November 2007 between Shire and Watson (the “Settlement Agreements”). The Settlement Agreements cover a different ANDA and do not provide any license for Watson to sell the products covered in Watson’s new ANDA. On April 5, 2011 Shire filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against Watson and its subsidiaries for infringement of certain of Shire’s ADDERALL XR patents and also for breach of contract in connection with the Settlement Agreements. The filing of the lawsuit triggered a stay of approval of this ANDA for up to 30 months. No trial date has been set.

Not sold in the US in Q1 2011.

VYVANSE – ADHD
 
The growth in VYVANSE product sales was due to an increase in US prescription demand, following 13% growth in the US ADHD market and increases to VYVANSE’s share of that market, together with the effect of price increases taken since Q1 2010. These positive effects were partially offset by higher sales deductions in Q1 2011 compared to Q1 2010.

ADDERALL XR – ADHD

The growth in product sales was due to an increase in US prescription demand, following 13% growth in the US ADHD market and increases to ADDERALL XR’s share of that market, together with the effects of stocking in Q1 2011 compared to de-stocking in Q1 2010. These positive effects were partially offset by higher sales deductions in Q1 2011 compared to Q1 2010.

REPLAGAL – Fabry disease
 
The growth in REPLAGAL product sales was driven by the treatment of new patients being both naïve patients and switches from the competing enzyme replacement therapy product. The majority of patients added in Q1 2011 were naïve patients.

ELAPRASE – Hunter syndrome
 
The growth in sales of ELAPRASE was driven by increased volumes across all regions in which ELAPRASE is sold, although the rate of growth in Q1 2011 was impacted by the timing of shipments to certain markets that order less frequently falling in April rather than March.
 

 
7

 
 
LIALDA/MEZAVANT – Ulcerative colitis
 
Product sales for LIALDA/MEZAVANT continued to grow in Q1 2011, driven primarily by increased US prescription demand as a result of an increase in US market share and price increases taken since Q1 2010.

PENTASA – Ulcerative colitis
 
The growth in PENTASA product sales was driven by price increases taken since Q1 2010, partially offset by higher sales deductions in Q1 2011 as compared to Q1 2010.

VPRIV – Gaucher disease

VPRIV has seen significant growth since its approval in the US in Q1 2010 and in Europe in Q3 2010. Growth in patients being treated with VPRIV continues in all major markets and we continue our launch plans in countries across Europe.

 INTUNIV – ADHD

INTUNIV prescription demand in the US continues to increase, up 10% from Q4 2010, although product sales declined slightly compared to Q4 2010 as stocking of $5 million in the fourth quarter was not repeated in Q1 2011.

Product sales were up 21% from Q1 2010, despite Q1 2010 benefiting from $17.6 million of previously deferred revenue from initial stocking shipments made in 2009.

FOSRENOL – Hyperphosphatemia
 
Product sales of FOSRENOL in the EU decreased primarily due to mandatory price reductions taken in Q2 2010. Product sales of FOSRENOL in the US decreased due to lower US prescription demand and higher sales deductions in Q1 2011 compared to Q1 2010.

Royalty income decreased in Q1 2011 compared to the same period in 2010, as Impax’s authorized generic version of ADDERALL XR contributed significantly lower royalties in Q1 2011 (Q1 2010 included royalties on launch shipments which were not repeated in Q1 2011). Other royalties (primarily FOSRENOL in Japan and REMINYL®) were up $3.4 million compared to Q1 2010.

Non GAAP SG&A costs increased by $43.2 million, or 14%, as the Company supported its continued product sales growth and absorbed a full quarter of Movetis’s operating costs. On a US GAAP basis, SG&A costs in Q1 2011 increased by $43.0 million, or 12% compared to Q1 2010.

Reorganization costs
 
For the three months to March 31, 2011 Shire recorded reorganization costs of $5.5 million (Q1 2010: $5.0 million) relating to the transfer of manufacturing from its Owings Mills facility and the establishment of an international commercial hub in Switzerland.

Integration and acquisition costs

For the three months to March 31, 2011 Shire recorded net income from integration and acquisition related activities totaling $6.4 million (Q1 2010: costs $0.6 million), which comprise integration costs for Movetis and adjustments to the estimated contingent consideration for EQUASYM.
 

 
9

 
 
Interest expense

For the three months to March 31, 2011 the Company incurred interest expense of $9.2 million (Q1 2010: $9.0 million). Interest expense principally relates to the coupon and amortization of issue costs on Shire’s $1,100 million 2.75% convertible bonds due 2014.

Taxation

The effective rate of tax for the three months to March 31, 2011 was 19% (Q1 2010: 24%), and the effective rate of tax on Non GAAP income was 22% (Q1 2010: 26%).

The effective rate of tax on Non GAAP income in 2011 is lower than the same period in 2010 due to favourable changes in profit mix and the release of provisions for uncertain tax positions following settlement of certain tax audits in Q1 2011.

Non GAAP Measures

This press release contains financial measures not prepared in accordance with US GAAP. These measures are referred to as “Non GAAP” measures and include: Non GAAP operating income; Non GAAP net income; Non GAAP diluted earnings per ADS; effective tax rate on Non GAAP income from continuing operations before income taxes and earnings of equity method investees (“Effective tax rate on Non GAAP income”); Non GAAP cost of product sales; Non GAAP research and development; Non GAAP selling, general and administrative; Non GAAP other income; Non GAAP cash generation; Non GAAP free cashflow and net debt. These Non GAAP measures exclude the effect of certain cash and non-cash items, that Shire's management believes are not related to the core performance of Shire’s business.

These Non GAAP financial measures are used by Shire’s management to make operating decisions because they facilitate internal comparisons of Shire’s performance to historical results and to competitors’ results. Shire’s Remuneration Committee uses certain key Non GAAP measures when assessing the performance and compensation of employees, including Shire’s executive directors.

The Non GAAP measures are presented in this press release as Shire’s management believe that they will provide investors with a means of evaluating, and an understanding of how Shire’s management evaluates, Shire’s performance and results on a comparable basis that is not otherwise apparent on a US GAAP basis, since many non-recurring, infrequent or non-cash items that Shire’s management believe are not indicative of the core performance of the business may not be excluded when preparing financial measures under US GAAP.

These Non GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

Where applicable the following items, including their tax effect, have been excluded from both 2011 and 2010 Non GAAP earnings, and from our 2011 Outlook:

Amortization and asset impairments:
·  
Intangible asset amortization and impairment charges; and
·  
Other than temporary impairment of investments.

Acquisitions and integration activities:
·  
Upfront payments and milestones in respect of in-licensed and acquired products;
·  
Costs associated with acquisitions, including transaction costs, fair value adjustments on contingent consideration and acquired inventory;
·  
Costs associated with the integration of companies; and
·  
Noncontrolling interest in consolidated variable interest entities.
 
Divestments, re-organizations and discontinued operations:
·  
Gains and losses on the sale of non-core assets;
·  
Costs associated with restructuring and re-organization activities;
·  
Termination costs; and
·  
Income / (losses) from discontinued operations.

Depreciation, which is included in Cost of product sales, Research and development and Selling, general and administrative costs in our US GAAP results, has been separately disclosed for the presentation of 2010 and 2011 Non GAAP earnings.

Cash generation represents net cash provided by operating activities, excluding up-front and milestone payments for in-licensed and acquired products, tax and interest payments.

Free cashflow represents net cash provided by operating activities, excluding up-front and milestone payments for in-licensed and acquired products, but including capital expenditure in the ordinary course of business.

A reconciliation of Non GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measure under US GAAP is presented on pages 17 to 19.

Sales growth at CER, which is a Non GAAP measure, is computed by restating 2011 results using average 2010 foreign exchange rates for the relevant period.
