CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Total revenues decreased by 5 percent to $876 million in second-quarter 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to generic competition adversely impacting the Branded Established Products portfolio. GAAP net loss from continuing operations in second-quarter 2017 was $696 million compared to GAAP net income from continuing operations of $390 million during the same period in 2016. This decrease was primarily attributable to charges associated with the Company's manufacturing network restructuring; after-tax impairment charges associated with market and competitive factors impacting certain products' revenues, the pending Somar divestiture and the market removal of OPANA^® ER; and second-quarter 2016 recognition of certain net tax benefits. GAAP net loss per share from continuing operations for the second-quarter 2017 was $3.12, compared to diluted GAAP EPS from continuing operations of $1.75 in second-quarter 2016.

Adjusted income from continuing operations in second-quarter 2017 increased by 8 percent to $207 million compared to second-quarter 2016. This increase was driven primarily by improved adjusted gross margin, which resulted, in part, from strong revenue growth in Sterile Injectables and Branded Specialty Products, as well as lower operating expenses. Adjusted EPS from continuing operations in second-quarter 2017 increased 8 percent to $0.93 compared to second-quarter 2016.

U.S. GENERIC PHARMACEUTICALS

During second-quarter 2017, the U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment launched neostigmine methylsulfate injection following approval of its Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Company also received FDA approval of its ANDA for vigabatrin for oral solution and expects to launch the product in the third-quarter of 2017.

Second-quarter 2017 U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals results include:

• Revenues of $563 million, virtually unchanged from second-quarter 2016, as decline in the Generics Base business was substantially offset by strong growth in Sterile Injectables and New Launches and Alternative Dosages.
• Sterile Injectables increased 27 percent compared to second-quarter 2016; this increase was driven primarily by VASOSTRICT^® and ADRENALIN^®.
• The Generics Base business decreased 34 percent compared to second-quarter 2016; this decrease primarily resulted from the impact on second-quarter 2017 related to 2016 competitive events and previously announced product discontinuances.

U.S. BRANDED PHARMACEUTICALS

During second-quarter 2017, the FDA requested that Endo voluntarily withdraw OPANA^® ER from the market. After careful consideration and consultation with the FDA, the Company announced it would voluntarily remove the product from the market. In an effort to minimize treatment disruption for patients and allow patients sufficient time to seek guidance from their healthcare professionals, the Company has agreed with the FDA to cease shipments to customers by September 1, 2017.

Second-quarter 2017 U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals results include:

• Revenues of $245 million, a 15 percent decrease compared to second-quarter 2016; this decrease was primarily attributable to generic competition adversely impacting the Company's established products portfolio, including VOLTAREN^® Gel, LIDODERM^® and OPANA^® ER , along with the divestiture of STENDRA^®.
• Specialty Products increased 16 percent in second-quarter 2017 versus the same period in 2016, driven by strong performance from XIAFLEX^®, SUPPRELIN^® LA and AVEED^®. Sales of XIAFLEX^®, our flagship Branded product, increased 18 percent compared to second-quarter 2016; this increase was primarily attributable to strong volume growth.

INTERNATIONAL PHARMACEUTICALS

Endo's previously announced sale of its South African business, Litha Healthcare Group, to Acino Pharma AG closed on July 3, 2017. Also in July, the Company announced it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Mexican subsidiary, Somar, to Advent International. The transaction is expected to close in the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2017, subject to customary conditions, including the expiration or termination of any waiting periods under applicable laws.

Second-quarter 2017 International Pharmaceuticals revenues were $67 million, virtually unchanged from the same period in 2016.

2017 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

For the full twelve months ended December31, 2017, at current exchange rates, Endo is providing updated guidance on revenue, GAAP and adjusted diluted income (loss) per share from continuing operations and adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, along with certain assumptions used in determining these measures, to reflect the planned divestiture of Somar, the market removal of OPANA^® ER and the recently announced manufacturing network restructuring. The Company estimates:

• Total revenues to be between $3.38 billion to $3.53 billion;
• Reported diluted GAAP loss per share from continuing operations to be between $4.76 and $4.46;
• Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations to be between $3.35 to $3.65; and
• Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to be between $1.48 billion to $1.56 billion.

The Company's 2017 non-GAAP financial guidance is based on the following assumptions:

• Adjusted gross margin of approximately 62.5% to 63.5%;
• Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenues of approximately 22.5%;
• Adjusted interest expense of approximately $490 million to $500 million;
• Adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 14.0%; and
• Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations assumes full-year adjusted diluted shares outstanding of approximately 224 million shares.

BALANCE SHEET, LIQUIDITY AND OTHER UPDATES

As of June30, 2017, the Company had $617 million in unrestricted cash; debt of $8.3 billion; net debt of approximately $7.7 billion and a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 4.3.

Second-quarter 2017 cash provided by operating activities was $173 million, compared to $604 million of net cash provided by operating activities in the comparable 2016 period. The 2016 period benefited from the receipt of a significant federal income tax refund that did not reoccur to the same extent in the 2017 period. Mesh-related payments also decreased in second-quarter 2017 compared to the 2016 period based on timing.

The Company recently announced that it has reached agreements to resolve virtually all known U.S. mesh product liability claims. Endo agreed to make installment payments beginning in the fourth-quarter of 2017 and continuing through the fourth-quarter of 2019. The Company increased its mesh product liability accrual by $775 million which is expected to cover approximately 22,000 U.S. mesh claims, as well as all known international mesh product liability claims and other mesh-related matters.

During second-quarter 2017, the Company recorded total combined pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charges of $725 million, which primarily consisted of intangible asset impairment charges of $477 million and goodwill impairment charges of $206 million, including the following items:

• $501 million of non-restructuring goodwill and intangible asset impairments related to its U.S. Generic and Branded Pharmaceuticals segments, which included the market withdrawal of OPANA^® ER and $115 million of goodwill and other intangible assets related to the Company's planned Somar sale.
• As part of its recently announced manufacturing network restructuring initiative, the Company will be ceasing operations and closing its manufacturing and distribution facilities in Huntsville, Alabama. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $90 million related to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment associated with the planned closure.

As previously announced, the Company expects to pay approximately $60 million in cash related to the manufacturing network restructuring over the next 12 to 18 months. As a result of these restructuring actions, Endo expects to redeploy as an investment into its core growth areas approximately $55 million to $65 million in annual net run rate pre-tax cost savings that it expects to realize by the fourth quarter of 2018.

As a result, we assessed the recoverability of the impacted products, resulting in pre-tax, non-cash intangible asset impairment charges of approximately $58 million. We also recorded property, plant and equipment impairments related to this restructuring totaling $32 million. As a result of the decision to withdrawal OPANA® ER, we determined that the carrying amount of this intangible asset was no longer recoverable, resulting in a pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge of $21 million, representing the remaining carrying amount. As a result of the withdrawal of OPANA® ER from the market and the continued erosion of its U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals segment's Established Products portfolio, we initiated an interim goodwill impairment analysis of our Branded reporting unit. We recorded a pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charge of $180 million for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeded the reporting unit's fair value. We entered into a definitive agreement to sell Somar on June 30, 2017, which resulted in Somar's assets and liabilities being classified as held for sale. The initiation of held-for-sale accounting, together with the agreed upon sale price, triggered an impairment review. Accordingly, we performed an impairment analysis using a market approach and determined that impairment charges were required. We recorded pre-tax non-cash impairment charges of $26 million, $90 million and $10 million related to Somar's goodwill, other intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, respectively. The remaining charges during the second quarter were largely the result of market conditions impacting the recoverability certain indefinite and finite-lived intangible assets in our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals, U.S. Branded Pharmaceuticals and International Pharmaceuticals segments.
	During the first quarter of 2017, we recorded total impairment charges of $204 million. Pursuant to an existing agreement with Novartis AG, Endo's subsidiary, Paladin Labs Inc., licensed the Canadian rights to commercialize serelaxin, an investigational drug for the treatment of acute heart failure (AHF). On March 22, 2017, Novartis announced that a Phase III study of serelaxin in patients with AHF failed to meet its primary endpoints. As a result, Endo has concluded that its serelaxin in-process research and development intangible asset is fully impaired resulting in a$45 million non-cash impairment charge. As a result of the serelaxin intangible impairment, Endo assessed the recoverability of its Paladin goodwill balance and determined that the estimated fair value of the Paladin reporting unit was below its book value, resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $83 million. The remaining charges were largely the result of certain market conditions impacting the recoverability of developed technology intangible assets in Endo's U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment.
	During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded pre-tax, non-cash impairment charges of $40 million and $170 million, respectively, The charge for the three months ended June 30, 2016 resulted from certain market conditions impacting the commercial potential of certain intangible assets in our U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals segment. The charges for the six months ended June 30, 2016, were primarily driven by our 2016 U.S. Generic Pharmaceuticals restructuring initiative, which resulted in the discontinuation of certain commercial products and the abandonment of certain IPR&D projects.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company utilizes certain financial measures that are not prescribed by or prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). These Non-GAAP financial measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted earnings per share amounts. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, we stress that these are Non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations and its components (unlike U.S. GAAP net income from continuing operations and its components) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. These Non-GAAP financial measures are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. However, the Company does not provide reconciliations of projected non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures, nor does it provide comparable projected GAAP financial measures for such projected non-GAAP financial measures, except for projected adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations. The Company is unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for asset impairments, contingent consideration adjustments, legal settlements, loss on extinguishment of debt, adjustments to inventory and other charges reflected in the reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which could be significant.

See Endo's Current Report on Form 8-K furnished today to the Securities and Exchange Commission for an explanation of Endo's non-GAAP financial measures.

Because forecasts are inherently estimates that cannot be made with precision, Endo's performance at times differs materially from its estimates and targets, and Endo often does not know what the actual results will be until after the end of the applicable reporting period. Therefore, Endo will not report or comment on its progress during a current quarter except through public announcement. Any statement made by others with respect to progress during a current quarter cannot be attributed to Endo.

All forward-looking statements in this press release reflect Endo's current analysis of existing trends and information and represent Endo's judgment only as of the date of this press release.
