Acquisitions

Receptos, Inc. (Receptos): On August 27, 2015 (Acquisition Date), we acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Receptos, resulting in Receptos becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary. Receptos' lead drug candidate, ozanimod, is a small molecule that modulates sphingosine 1-phosphate 1 and 5 receptors and it is in development for immune-inflammatory indications, including inflammatory bowel disease and relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). In clinical trial results, ozanimod demonstrated several areas of potential advantage over existing oral therapies for the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) and RMS, including its cardiac, hepatotoxicity and lymphocyte recovery profile. The phase III TRUE NORTH trial in UC is currently underway with data expected in 2018. The phase III RADIANCE and SUNBEAM RMS trials are ongoing and data are expected in the first half of 2017. Receptos is also developing RPC4046, for the treatment of an allergic/immune-mediated disorder, Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE), which has been designated as an orphan disease. RPC4046 was licensed from AbbVie Bahamas Ltd. and AbbVie Inc. (collectively referred to as AbbVie) and is currently in phase II testing for EoE. The results of operations for Receptos are included in our consolidated financial statements from the Acquisition Date and the assets and liabilities of Receptos have been recorded at their respective fair values on the Acquisition Date and consolidated with our assets and liabilities.

We paid approximately $7.626 billion, consisting of $7.311 billion for common stock outstanding and $0.315 billion for the portion of equity compensation attributable to the pre-combination period. In addition, we will pay $0.197 billion for the portion of equity compensation attributable to the post-combination service period, which will be recorded as expense over the required service period ending in the fourth quarter of 2015.
The acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date and requires the fair value of acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) to be classified as indefinite-lived assets until the successful completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. A preliminary purchase price allocation has been performed and the recorded amounts for intangible assets, goodwill and associated deferred tax assets and liabilities are subject to change pending finalization of valuation efforts.

The amounts recognized will be finalized as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained, but no later than one year after the acquisition date.

The total consideration for the acquisition of Receptos was $7,626.2 million, consisting of cash and is summarized as follows:

(1)  $28.6 million for equity compensation attributable to pre-combination service remained payable at September 30, 2015 and will be paid prior to December 31, 2015.

The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in the following amounts being allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date based upon their respective preliminary fair values summarized below:

(1)  Includes cash and cash equivalents, available for sale marketable securities, other current assets, accounts payable and other current liabilities.

The fair values of current assets, current liabilities and property, plant and equipment were determined to approximate their book values.

The fair value assigned to acquired IPR&D was based on the present value of expected after-tax cash flows attributable to ozanimod, which is in phase II and III testing. The present value of expected after-tax cash flows attributable to ozanimod and assigned to IPR&D was determined by estimating the after-tax costs to complete development of ozanimod into a commercially viable product, estimating future revenue and ongoing expenses to produce, support and sell ozanimod, on an after-tax basis, and discounting the resulting net cash flows to present value. The revenue and costs projections used were reduced based on the probability that compounds at similar stages of development will become commercially viable products. The rate utilized to discount the net cash flows to their present value reflects the risk associated with the intangible asset and is benchmarked to the cost of equity. Acquired IPR&D will be accounted for as an indefinite-lived intangible asset until regulatory approval in a major market or discontinuation of development.
The excess of purchase price over the fair value amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents the goodwill amount resulting from the acquisition. The goodwill recorded as part of the acquisition is primarily attributable to the broadening of our product portfolio and research capabilities in the inflammation and immunology therapeutic area and the assembled workforce. We do not expect any portion of this goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill attributable to the acquisition has been recorded as a non-current asset in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and is not amortized, but is subject to review for impairment annually.

As a result of the exclusive development license from AbbVie for RPC4046 that Receptos held prior to our acquisition of Receptos, AbbVie holds an option to enter into a global collaboration for RPC4046 with us following the availability of results from the current phase II study. If AbbVie does not exercise its option, we will have an exclusive worldwide license for the development and commercialization of RPC4046 that will be unlimited as to indications. We do not consider this potential collaboration arrangement to be significant.

From the Acquisition Date through September 30, 2015, our Consolidated Statements of Operations included expenses of $235.3 million associated with the acquisition and operations of Receptos as follows(1):

The unaudited pro forma financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and was based on the historical financial information of Celgene and Receptos. The pro-forma financial information assumes that the acquisition-related transaction fees and costs incurred were removed from the three-month period ended September 30, 2015 and were assumed to have been incurred during the first quarter of 2014. The unaudited pro forma results do not reflect any operating efficiencies or potential cost savings that may result from the combined operations of Celgene and Receptos. Accordingly, these unaudited pro forma results are presented for illustrative purposes and are not intended to represent or be indicative of the actual results of operations of the combined company that would have been achieved had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the period presented, nor are they intended to represent or be indicative of future results of operations.

Quanticel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Quanticel): On October 19, 2015, we completed our previously announced acquisition of Quanticel, a privately held biotechnology company focused on cancer drug discovery, for consideration consisting of $100.0 million in cash at closing plus contingent consideration consisting of future payments of up to $385.0 million for achieving specified discovery and development targets. We have had a research collaboration arrangement with Quanticel since 2011. Through this purchase, Quanticel has become our wholly-owned subsidiary, and we will benefit from full access to Quanticel’s proprietary platform for the single-cell genomic analysis of human cancer, as well as Quanticel’s programs that target specific epigenetic modifiers, which we expect will advance our pipeline of innovative cancer therapies.

The acquisition will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations which requires the assets and liabilities of Quanticel to be recorded at their respective fair values on the acquisition date and consolidated into our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The results of operations for Quanticel will be included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Due to the limitations on access to Quanticel information prior to the acquisition date and the limited time since the acquisition date, the initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete at this time. As a result, we are unable to provide contingent consideration disclosures and the amounts recognized as of the acquisition date for the major classes of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the information required for net working capital, pre-acquisition contingencies, intangible assets and goodwill. This information will be included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Nogra Pharma Limited (Nogra): On April 23, 2014, we entered into a license agreement with Nogra, pursuant to which Nogra granted us an exclusive, royalty-bearing license in its intellectual property relating to GED-0301, an antisense oligonucleotide targeting Smad7, to develop and commercialize products containing GED-0301 for the treatment of Crohn’s disease and other indications. Based on our evaluation of the license agreement, our level of control and decision making authority over the development and application of the intellectual property, the associated transfer of manufacturing agreements and knowhow, and access to employees of Nogra, we concluded that the acquired assets met the definition of a business and we have accounted for the GED-0301 license as IPR&D acquired in a business combination. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Nogra were recorded on our balance sheet as of May 14, 2014 (Effective Date), at their respective fair values. Nogra's results of operations are included in our consolidated financial statements from the Effective Date.
We made an upfront payment of $710.0 million and may make additional contingent developmental, regulatory and sales milestone payments as well as payments based on percentages of annual sales of licensed products. The maximum aggregate amount payable for development and regulatory milestones is approximately $815.0 million, which covers such milestones relating to Crohn’s disease and other indications. Starting from global annual net sales of $500.0 million, aggregate tiered sales milestone payments could total a maximum of $1.050 billion if global annual net sales reach $4.000 billion.
Subsequent to the Effective Date, we have measured the contingent consideration at fair value each period with changes in fair value recognized in operating earnings. Changes in fair values reflect new information about the IPR&D assets and the passage of time. At September 30, 2015, the balance of the contingent consideration was $1.213 billion, of which $25.0 million is included in other current liabilities and $1.188 billion included in other non-current liabilities.
