Columbia Laboratories Announces Preliminary Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2013 Results

Revenue Growth of 12%-14% Expected Year-over-Year

BOSTON, MA – January 9, 2014—Columbia Laboratories, Inc. (Nasdaq: CBRX) today announced preliminary, unaudited financial results of the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.

For the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company expects to report:

For fiscal 2013, the Company expects to report:

“Our year-on-year fourth quarter revenue growth was largely driven by the contributions of our world-class pharmaceutical development subsidiary, Molecular Profiles,” said Frank Condella, Columbia’s president and CEO. “We are well positioned for continued growth within the $21.5 billion-and-growing global outsourced pharmaceutical development market.”

As previously disclosed, Merck Serono was building inventory of CRINONE^® (progesterone gel) during the first three quarters of 2013 in one of its higher-volume, higher-margin markets ahead of a routine license renewal. During the renewal period, which is expected to continue through the first half of 2014, Merck Serono is not expected to ship CRINONE into this market. As a result, product revenue from Merck Serono was lower for the fourth quarter of 2013; this is expected to continue through the first half of 2014. CRINONE revenues fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year based in part on the timing of product batch shipments to Merck Serono. However, underlying CRINONE worldwide in-market sales are expected to continue to increase throughout 2014 and beyond driven by Merck Serono’s continued growth in emerging markets and entry into new markets.
