   THE "SAFE HARBOR" STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION 
REFORM ACT OF 1995 
 
   Statements included herein that are not historical facts, including 
without limitation statements concerning future strategy, plans, 
objectives, expectations and intentions, the anticipated timing of 
clinical trials and approvals for, and the commercial potential of, 
inline or pipeline products, are forward-looking statements. Such 
forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties 
and are subject to change at any time. In the event such risks or 
uncertainties materialize, Shire's results could be materially adversely 
affected. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, 
the following: 
 
 
   -- Shire's products may not be a commercial success; 
 
   -- increased pricing pressures and limits on patient access as a result of 
      governmental regulations and market developments may affect Shire's 
      future revenues, financial condition and results of operations; 
 
   -- Shire conducts its own manufacturing operations for certain of its 
      products and is reliant on third party contract manufacturers to 
      manufacture other products and to provide goods and services. Some of 
      Shire's products or ingredients are only available from a single approved 
      source for manufacture. Any disruption to the supply chain for any of 
      Shire's products may result in Shire being unable to continue marketing 
      or developing a product or may result in Shire being unable to do so on a 
      commercially viable basis for some period of time; 
 
   -- the manufacture of Shire's products is subject to extensive oversight by 
      various regulatory agencies. Regulatory approvals or interventions 
      associated with changes to manufacturing sites, ingredients or 
      manufacturing processes could lead to, among other things, significant 
      delays, an increase in operating costs, lost product sales, an 
      interruption of research activities or the delay of new product launches; 
 
   -- certain of Shire's therapies involve lengthy and complex processes, which 
      may prevent Shire from timely responding to market forces and effectively 
      managing its production capacity; 
 
   -- Shire has a portfolio of products in various stages of research and 
      development. The successful development of these products is highly 
      uncertain and requires significant expenditures and time, and there is no 
      guarantee that these products will receive regulatory approval; 
 
   -- the actions of certain customers could affect Shire's ability to sell or 
      market products profitably. Fluctuations in buying or distribution 
      patterns by such customers can adversely affect Shire's revenues, 
      financial conditions or results of operations; 
 
   -- Shire's products and product candidates face substantial competition in 
      the product markets in which it operates, including competition from 
      generics; 
 
   -- adverse outcomes in legal matters, tax audits and other disputes, 
      including Shire's ability to enforce and defend patents and other 
      intellectual property rights required for its business, could have a 
      material adverse effect on the Group's revenues, financial condition or 
      results of operations; 
 
   -- inability to successfully compete for highly qualified personnel from 
      other companies and organizations; 
 
   -- failure to achieve the strategic objectives, including expected operating 
      efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements, synergies or other 
      benefits at the time anticipated or at all with respect to Shire's 
      acquisitions, including of NPS Pharmaceuticals Inc. ("NPS"), Dyax Corp. 
      ("Dyax") or Baxalta Incorporated ("Baxalta"), may adversely affect 
      Shire's financial condition and results of operations; 
 
   -- Shire's growth strategy depends in part upon its ability to expand its 
      product portfolio through external collaborations, which, if unsuccessful, 
      may adversely affect the development and sale of its products; 
 
   -- a slowdown of global economic growth, or economic instability of 
      countries in which Shire does business, as well as changes in foreign 
      currency exchange rates and interest rates, that adversely impact the 
      availability and cost of credit and customer purchasing and payment 
      patterns, including the collectability of customer accounts receivable; 
 
   -- failure of a marketed product to work effectively or if such a product is 
      the cause of adverse side effects could result in damage to Shire's 
      reputation, the withdrawal of the product and legal action against Shire; 
 
   -- investigations or enforcement action by regulatory authorities or law 
      enforcement agencies relating to Shire's activities in the highly 
      regulated markets in which it operates may result in significant legal 
      costs and the payment of substantial compensation or fines; 
 
   -- Shire is dependent on information technology and its systems and 
      infrastructure face certain risks, including from service disruptions, 
      the loss of sensitive or confidential information, cyber-attacks and 
      other security breaches or data leakages that could have a material 
      adverse effect on Shire's revenues, financial condition or results of 
      operations; 
 
   -- Shire incurred substantial additional indebtedness to finance the Baxalta 
      acquisition, which has increased its borrowing costs and may decrease its 
      business flexibility; and 
 
 
   a further list and description of risks, uncertainties and other matters 
can be found in Shire's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in 
Shire's subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, in each case 
including those risks outlined in "ITEM 1A: Risk Factors", and in 
subsequent reports on Form 8-K and other Securities and Exchange 
Commission filings, all of which are available on Shire's website. 
 
   All forward-looking statements attributable to the Group or any person 
acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this 
cautionary statement. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance 
on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date 
hereof. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law, the

   Chief Executive Officer's review 
 
   We are pleased to enclose our financial results for the six-month period 
ended June 30, 2017. This Half-yearly Report includes condensed 
consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. 
GAAP"). 
 
   Flemming Ornskov, M.D., M.P.H. Shire's Chief Executive Officer, 
commented: 
 
   "Shire delivered strong top-line growth and significantly advanced our 
pipeline during the first half of 2017. We saw significant contributions 
from our broad and diverse portfolio and further realized cost synergies 
from our integration with Baxalta, which continued ahead of schedule. 
 
   "Total reported product sales in the first half of 2017 were $7.0 
billion, up 77% against first half of 2016, primarily due to the 
inclusion of Baxalta product revenues. We also delivered product sales 
growth in Shire's legacy business versus first half of 2016: Genetic 
Diseases up 8% to $1,401 million and Internal Medicine up 12% to $903 
million. 
 
   "We continued to drive the late-stage clinical pipeline, with milestones 
achieved in programs across our core therapeutic areas. Most recently, 
we announced positive topline data from our Phase 3 pivotal trial of 
SHP643 in Hereditary Angioedema, and anticipate submission of the BLA in 
late 2017 or early 2018. MYDAYIS, a once-daily treatment for patients 
with ADHD, received US FDA approval and will be launched in September. 
In addition, we were granted European Union (EU) Conditional Marketing 
Authorisation for NATPAR (Parathyroid Hormone) for the treatment of 
patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism, and received European 
Medicines Agency (EMA) validation of the VEYVONDI [von Willebrand factor 
(Recombinant)] Marketing Authorization Application for treatment of von 
Willebrand Disease (VWD). 
 
   "We are at an exciting inflection point, with both our rare disease and 
neuroscience businesses performing strongly and each having significant 
growth potential over the coming years. The strength and scale of our 
business provides us with the opportunity to further optimize our 
franchise portfolio - one of our key priorities communicated earlier 
this year. By year end, we expect to complete a formal evaluation of the 
full range of strategic options for the neuroscience franchise, 
including the potential for its independent public listing. 
 
   "As we enter the second half of 2017, we are focused on generating 
strong organic growth while continuing to deliver on our key priorities 
- launching more than 80 products globally by leveraging our expanded 
commercial platform, progressing our late-stage pipeline, integrating 
Baxalta, and paying down debt. We remain very confident about Shire's 
long-term prospects." 
 
   Flemming Ornskov, M.D., M.P.H.

   CINRYZE for the treatment of HAE 
 
 
   -- On March 16, 2017, the EC approved a label extension for CINRYZE (C1 
      inhibitor [human]), broadening its use to children with HAE. CINRYZE is 
      now the first and only treatment indicated for routine prevention of

by the Nomination & Governance Committee, will continue to evaluate 
Board and committee membership, including succession plans for the roles 
of Senior Independent Director and Chairman of the Science & Technology 
Committee, and will announce further changes once finalized. 
 
   Dividend 
 
   In respect of the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Board resolved to 
pay an interim dividend of 0.0509 U.S. dollars per ordinary share (2016: 
0.0463 U.S. dollars per ordinary share). 
 
   Dividend payments will be made in Pounds sterling to holders of ordinary 
shares and in U.S. dollars to holders of ADSs. A dividend of 0.0385 (1) 
Pounds sterling per ordinary share (2016: 0.0351 Pounds sterling) and 
0.1527 U.S. dollars per ADS (2016: 0.1389 U.S. dollars) will be paid on 
October 20, 2017, to shareholders on the register as of the close of 
business on September 8, 2017. 
 
   Holders of ordinary shares are notified that, in order to receive UK 
sourced dividends via Shire's Income Access Share arrangements ("IAS 
Arrangements"), they need to have submitted a valid IAS Arrangements 
election form to the Group's Registrar, Equiniti, by no later than 5pm 
(BST) on September 22, 2017. Holders of ordinary shares are advised 
that: 
 
 
   -- any previous elections made using versions of the IAS Arrangements 
      election form in use prior to February 16, 2016, and any elections deemed 
      to have been made prior to April 28, 2016, are no longer valid; and 
 
   -- if they do not elect, or have not elected using the newly formatted IAS 
      Arrangements election forms published on or after February 16, 2016, to 
      receive UK sourced dividends via Shire's IAS Arrangements, their 
      dividends will be Irish sourced and therefore incur Irish dividend 
      withholding tax, subject to applicable exemptions.

   Going Concern 
 
   As stated in Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, 
the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate 
resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable 
future. Accordingly, the Directors consider it appropriate to adopt the 
going concern basis of accounting in preparing the Half-yearly Report.

   N/M: Baxalta sales have only been included in the consolidated results 
of the Group since the date of acquisition; therefore, Product sales 
growth as a percentage is not meaningful. 
 
   Hematology 
 
   Hematology was acquired with Baxalta in June 2016 and includes sales of 
recombinant and plasma-derived hemophilia products (primarily factor 
VIII and factor IX) and inhibitor therapies. Hematology product sales, 
totaling $964.6 million and $1,835.5 million, respectively, are included 
in Product sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, 
representing 27% and 26% of Shire's reported Product sales, 
respectively. 
 
   Genetic Diseases 
 
   Genetic Diseases product sales for the three and six months ended June 
30, 2017 increased by 2% and 8%, respectively, compared to the 
corresponding periods in 2016. Growth was primarily driven by the 
Group's lysosomal storage diseases portfolio and CINRYZE. 
 
   ELAPRASE product sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 
increased by 5% and 9%, respectively, while REPLAGAL sales increased by 
3% and 5%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2016. 
Both products benefited from an increase in the number of patients on 
therapy. 
 
   CINRYZE product sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 
increased by 2% and 19%, respectively.  The growth in the three months 
ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to an increase in number of 
patients, partially offset by destocking during the second quarter of 
2017. The growth in the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due 
to an increase in number of patients and the impact of U.S. stocking in 
the first half of 2017. 
 
   Immunology 
 
   Immunology was acquired with Baxalta in June 2016 and includes product 
sales of antibody-replacement immunoglobulin and bio therapeutics 
therapies. Immunology product sales, totaling $682.7 million and 
$1,358.9 million, respectively, are included in Product sales for the 
three and six months ended June 30, 2017, representing 19% of Shire's 
reported Product sales, in each respective period. 
 
   Neuroscience 
 
   Neuroscience product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2017 
decreased by 3% compared to the corresponding period in 2016, primarily 
driven by ADDERALL XR. Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 
2017 increased less than 1% compared to the corresponding period in 
2016. 
 
   ADDERALL XR sales decreased by 30% and 32%, respectively, during the 
three and six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the corresponding 
periods in 2016, primarily due to additional generic competition since 
August 2016. 
 
   VYVANSE product sales increased by less than 1% and 5% for the three and 
six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared with the 
corresponding periods in 2016. The three months ended June 30, 2017 
growth was impacted by destocking in the second quarter of 2017 compared 
to stocking in the corresponding period in 2016. During the six months 
ended June 30, 2017, VYVANSE sales increased due to year-over-year 
prescription growth in the U.S., the benefit of a price increase taken 
since the first quarter of 2016 and growth in international markets, 
partially offset by destocking. 
 
   MYDAYIS, approved by the FDA on June 20, 2017, contributed $15.7 million 
of product sales related to launch stocking. 
 
   Internal Medicine 
 
   Internal Medicine product sales increased by 15% and 12%, respectively, 
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the 
corresponding periods in 2016, with growth primarily driven by 
GATTEX/REVESTIVE and NATPARA. 
 
   GATTEX/REVESTIVE and NATPARA reported increased product sales of 69% and 
73% during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 50% and 81% during 
the six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, primarily due to an 
increase in the numbers of patients on therapy. 
 
   During the second quarter of 2017, a generic version of LIALDA was 
approved by the FDA; Shire expects generic competition to negatively 
impact future LIALDA product sales. 
 
   Oncology 
 
   Oncology was acquired with Baxalta in June 2016 and includes sales of 
ONCASPAR and ONIVYDE, the latter of which was approved in the EU on 
October 18, 2016. Oncology product sales, totaling reported sales of 
$62.5 million and $120.8 million respectively, are included in Product 
sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, representing 2% 
Shire's reported Product sales, in each respective period. 
 
   Ophthalmology 
 
   Ophthalmology product sales relate to XIIDRA, which was made available 
to patients starting on August 29, 2016. XIIDRA contributed $57.4 
million and $96.0 million of product sales during the three and six 
months ended June 30, 2017. 
 
   Royalties and other revenues 
 
   The following table provides an analysis of Shire's income from 
royalties and other revenues:

 other 
 revenues       $154.0  $107.0     44%      $314.0  $189.0    66% 
 
 
   Royalties and other revenues increased 44% and 66%, respectively, during 
the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the 
corresponding periods in 2016, primarily due to the inclusion of 
contract manufacturing revenue acquired with Baxalta. 
 
   Cost of sales 
 
   Cost of sales as a percentage of Total revenues decreased to 30% for the 
three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to 32% for the corresponding 
period in 2016, primarily due to lower expense related to the unwind of 
inventory fair value adjustments. Cost of sales as a percentage of Total 
revenues increased to 33% for the six months ended June 30, 2017, 
compared to 25% in the corresponding period in 2016, primarily due to 
the impact of the unwind of inventory fair value adjustments and 
increased depreciation following the acquisition of Baxalta on June 3, 
2016. 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Cost of sales included 
depreciation of $67.0 million and $139.1 million, respectively (2016: 
$22.4 million and $30.7 million, respectively). 
 
   Research and development 
 
   In the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Research and 
development expenses increased by $247.6 million and $409.8 million, or 
84% and 80%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 
2016, primarily due to milestone and upfront payments associated with 
license arrangements and the inclusion of Baxalta costs. 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Research and 
development included depreciation of $12.8 million and $26.2 million, 
respectively (2016: $5.8 million and $11.7 million, respectively). 
 
   Selling, general and administrative 
 
   In the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Selling, general and 
administrative expenses increased by $223.8 million and $637.8 million, 
or 33% and 55%, compared to the corresponding periods in 2016, primarily 
due to the inclusion of Baxalta related costs and increased XIIDRA 
marketing costs. 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Selling, general and 
administrative expenses included depreciation of $40.9 million and $78.3 
million, respectively (2016: $19.7 million and $39.8 million, 
respectively). 
 
   Amortization of acquired intangible assets 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Shire recorded 
Amortization of acquired intangible assets of $434.1 million and $798.1 
million, respectively, compared to $213.0 million and $347.6 million, 
respectively, in the corresponding periods in 2016. The increase is 
primarily related to amortization on the intangible assets acquired with 
the acquisition of Baxalta. 
 
   Integration and acquisition costs 
 
   In the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Shire recorded 
Integration and acquisition costs of $343.7 million and $459.7 million, 
respectively, compared to $363.0 million and $454.1 million, 
respectively, in the corresponding periods in 2016. 
 
   In 2017, Integration and acquisition costs included a net charge of 
$151.2 million, primarily relating to the change in fair value of 
contingent consideration for SHP643, which was acquired from Dyax in 
2016. The Baxalta integration and acquisition costs include $80.2 
million and $117.1 million, respectively, of employee severance and 
acceleration of stock compensation, $50.4 million and $85.6 million, 
respectively, of third-party professional fees and $17.2 million and 
$41.7 million, respectively, of expenses associated with facility 
consolidations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The 
Group also recognized $33.6 million of expenses during the three and six 
months ended June 30, 2017 related to asset impairments. 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, Integration and 
acquisition costs primarily consist of $67.1 million and $125.6 million, 
respectively, of acquisition costs including legal, investment banking 
and other transaction-related fees, $254.5 million and $265.5 million, 
respectively, of employee severance and acceleration of stock 
compensation, $79.2 million and $89.2 million, respectively, of 
third-party professional fees and $56.5 million and $45.1 million, 
respectively, of change in fair value of contingent consideration. 
 
   Interest expense 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Shire incurred 
Interest expense of $141.3 million and $283.6 million, respectively, 
primarily due to higher interest expense incurred on borrowings used to 
fund the acquisitions of Dyax and Baxalta. 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, Shire incurred 
Interest expense of $87.2 million and $131.9 million, respectively, 
primarily related to the interest and amortization of financing fees 
incurred on borrowings to fund the acquisition of Dyax and the 
amortization of one-time upfront arrangement fees incurred on borrowings 
associated with the acquisition of Baxalta. 
 
   Taxation 
 
   The effective tax rate on income from continuing operations for the 
three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was 9% and 5% (2016: -427% and 
2%), respectively. 
 
   The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 
and 2016 was driven by the combined impact of the relative quantum of 
profit before tax for the period by jurisdiction as well as acquisition 
and integration costs in higher tax territories. 
 
   Discontinued Operations 
 
   The loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 
30, 2017 was $1.2 million, net of taxes, and the gain for the six months 
ended June 30, 2017 was $19.0 million, net of taxes. The loss during the 
three months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily related to the divested 
DERMAGRAFT business and the gain during the six months ended June 30, 
2017 was primarily due to the return of funds previously held in escrow 
related to the acquisition of the DERMAGRAFT business. 
 
   The loss from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended 
June 30, 2016 was $248.7 million and $239.2 million, respectively, net 
of taxes, primarily related to the establishment of legal contingencies 
related to the divested DERMAGRAFT business. 
 
   Financial condition at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 
 
   Cash and cash equivalents: 
 
   Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $265.1 million to $263.7 million 
at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 2016:  $528.8 million).  The net decrease 
was primarily related to $1,681.9 million of net cash provided by 
operating activities, which was partially offset by net repayments of 
debt ($1,416.0 million), purchases of fixed assets ($391.1 million), and 
payment of dividends ($234.7 million). 
 
   Accounts receivable, net: 
 
   Accounts receivable, net increased by $138.7 million to $2,755.2 million 
at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 2016: $2,616.5 million) due to higher 
revenue, in part related to our newly launched product, MYDAYIS. 
 
   Inventories 
 
   Inventories decreased by $237.0 million to $3,325.3 million at June 30, 
2017 (December 31, 2016:  $3,562.3 million) primarily due to the 
amortization of the unwind of inventory fair value adjustments ($625.4 
million), offset by increases in inventory levels to support higher 
demand of immunology and hematology products and expected demand for our 
ophthalmology product. 
 
   Goodwill 
 
   Goodwill increased by $1,593.9 million to $19,482.1 million at June 30, 
2017 (December 31, 2016:  $17,888.2 million), principally due to 
finalizing the purchase accounting related to the Baxalta acquisition. 
 
   Intangible assets, net 
 
   Intangible assets, net decreased by $1,263.2 million to $33,434.3 
million at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 2016:  $34,697.5 million), 
principally due to finalizing the purchase accounting related to the 
Baxalta acquisition.  As of June 30, 2017, we completed our purchase 
accounting.  We had previously disclosed that the fair values of those 
assets were preliminary and subject to change pending the completion of 
our valuation work. 
 
   Accounts payable and accrued expenses 
 
   Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by $470.4 million to 
$3,842.0 at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 2016:  $4,312.4 million) 
primarily related to the settlement of legal contingencies 
(approximately $350 million) related to the divested Dermagraft 
business. 
 
   Short and long term borrowings and capital leases 
 
   Short and long term borrowings and capital leases decreased by a net of 
$1,407.8 million to $21,560.0 million at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 
2016:  $22,967.8 million) primarily related to the repayments of senior 
notes and other long term debt ($1,701.0 million), partially offset by 
an increase in short term borrowings under the revolving credit facility 
($285.0 million). 
 
   Non-current deferred tax liabilities 
 
   Non-current deferred tax liabilities decreased by $534.7 million to 
$7,788.0 million at June 30 2017 (December 31, 2016:  $8,322.7 million) 
primarily due to adjustments for the deferred tax liabilities arising on 
intangible assets acquired with Baxalta.  As of June 30, 2017 we 
completed our purchase accounting related to the Baxalta transaction. 
 
   Other non-current liabilities 
 
   Other non-current liabilities increased by $224.6 million to $2,346.2 
million at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 2016:  $2,121.6 million) 
principally due the increase in the fair value of contingent 
consideration payable primarily associated with the SHP643 (lanadelumab) 
IPR&D intangible asset acquired with the Dyax transaction, an increase 
in income tax payable as well as an increase in pension liability. 
 
   Liquidity and Capital Resources 
 
   General 
 
   The Group's funding requirements depend on a number of factors, 
including the timing and extent of its development programs; corporate, 
business and product acquisitions; the level of resources required for 
the expansion of certain manufacturing and marketing capabilities as the 
product base expands; increases in accounts receivable and inventory 
which may arise with any increase in product sales; technological 
developments; the timing and cost of obtaining required regulatory 
approvals for new products; the timing and quantum of milestone payments 
on business combinations, in-licenses and collaborative projects; the 
timing and quantum of tax and dividend payments; the timing and quantum 
of purchases by the Employee Benefit Trust of Shire shares in the market 
to satisfy awards granted under Shire's employee share plans and the 
amount of cash generated from sales of Shire's products and royalty 
receipts. 
 
   An important part of Shire's business strategy is to protect its 
products and technologies through the use of patents, proprietary 
technologies and trademarks, to the extent available. The Group intends 
to defend its intellectual property and as a result may need cash for 
funding the cost of litigation. 
 
   The Group finances its activities through cash generated from operating 
activities, credit facilities, private and public offerings of equity 
and debt securities and the proceeds of asset or investment disposals. 
 
   Shire's Consolidated Balance Sheets include $263.7 million of Cash and 
cash equivalents as of June 30, 2017. 
 
   Shire has a revolving credit facility ("RCF") of $2,100.0 million, which 
matures in 2021, $735.0 million of which was utilized as of June 30, 
2017. The RCF incorporates a $250.0 million U.S. dollar and Euro 
swingline facility operating as a sub-limit thereof. 
 
   In connection with the acquisition of Dyax, Shire entered into a $5.6 
billion amortizing term loan facility in November 2015. As of June 30, 
2017, $3.3 billion of this term loan facility was outstanding. The 
facility matures in different tranches through November 2018 and $1.7 
billion is due within the next twelve months. 
 
   In connection with the acquisition of Baxalta, Shire assumed $5.0 
billion of unsecured senior notes previously issued by Baxalta, of which 
$750.0 million is due within the next twelve months and issued $12.1 
billion of unsecured senior notes in September 2016, of which none are 
due for repayment in the next twelve months. 
 
   The details of these financing arrangements are included in Note 13, 
Borrowings and Capital Leases, to these Unaudited Consolidated Financial 
Statements. 
 
   In addition, Shire also has access to certain short-term uncommitted 
lines of credit which are available to utilize from time to time to 
provide short-term cash management flexibility. As of June 30, 2017, 
these lines of credit were not utilized. 
 
   The Group may also engage in financing activities from time to time, 
including accessing the debt or equity capital markets. 
 
   Financing 
 
   Shire anticipates that its operating cash flow together with available 
cash, cash equivalents, and the RCF will be sufficient to meet its 
anticipated future operating expenses, capital expenditures, tax and 
interest payments, lease obligations, repayment of borrowings and 
milestone payments as they become due over the next twelve months. 
 
   If the Group decides to acquire other businesses, it expects to fund 
these acquisitions from cash resources, the RCF and through new 
borrowings (including issuances of debt securities) or the issuance of 
new equity, if necessary. 
 
   Sources and uses of cash

   -- Net debt is a Non-GAAP measure. Net debt represents U.S. GAAP Cash and 
      cash equivalents less U.S. GAAP short and long term borrowings and 
      capital leases (see above). The Group believes that Net debt is a useful 
      measure as it indicates the level of borrowings after taking account of 
      the Cash and cash equivalents that could be utilized to pay down the 
      outstanding borrowings. 
 
   -- Substantially all of the Group's Cash and cash equivalents are held by 
      foreign subsidiaries (i.e., those subsidiaries incorporated outside of 
      Jersey, Channel Islands, the jurisdiction of incorporation of Shire plc, 
      Shire's holding company). The amount of Cash and cash equivalents held by 
      foreign subsidiaries has not had, and is not expected to have, a material 
      impact on the Group's liquidity and capital resources. 
 
 
   Cash flow activity 
 
   Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $701.5 million, 
or 72%, to $1,681.9 million (2016: $980.4 million) during the six months 
ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to increased cash receipts from 
higher sales, partially offset by a payment of $351.6 million associated 
with the settlement of the DERMAGRAFT litigation. 
 
   Net cash used in investing activities was $355.9 million during the six 
months ended June 30, 2017, principally relating to cash paid for 
purchases of PP&E and long term investments. 
 
   Net cash used in financing activities was $1,595.2 million during the 
six months ended June 30, 2017. This includes $1,700.0 million of 
scheduled and advance repayments under the November 2015 Facility B and 
a dividend payment of $234.7, which was partially offset by $285.0 
million of increased borrowings under the RCF and $79.5 million of cash 
proceeds from the exercise of options. 
 
   Obligations and commitments 
 
   There were no material changes to the Group's contractual obligations 
previously disclosed in Review of our Business in Shire's Annual Report 
and Accounts for the year ended December 31, 2016. 
 
   Recent Accounting Pronouncements 
 
   A description of recently issued accounting standards is included under 
the heading "New Accounting Pronouncements" in Note 1, Summary of 
Significant Accounting Policies. 
 
   Principal risks and uncertainties 
 
   The Group's risk management strategy is to identify, assess and mitigate 
any significant risks that it faces. Despite this, it should be noted 
that no risk management strategy can provide absolute assurance against 
loss. 
 
   The Group's processes for managing these risks are consistent with those 
outlined in Shire's Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 
December 31, 2016, which is available on the Group's website, 
www.shire.com. 
 
   The principal risks and uncertainties affecting the Group for the 
remaining six months of 2017 are those described under the headings 
below. It is not anticipated that the nature of the principal risks and 
uncertainties disclosed in full in Shire's Annual Report and Accounts 
for the year ended December 31, 2016, will change in respect of the 
second half of 2017. The Group believes that these risk factors apply 
equally and therefore all should be carefully considered before any 
investment is made in Shire. 
 
   Shire's combination with Baxalta closed on June 3, 2016. All references 
to the "Group," "Shire," "we," "us," or "our" used herein refer to Shire 
plc and its subsidiaries, including Baxalta and its subsidiaries. 
 
   In summary, these risks and uncertainties are as follows: 
 
   Risks Related to Our Business 
 
 
   -- The Group's products may not be a commercial success. 
 
   -- Increased pricing pressures and limits on patient access as a result of 
      governmental regulations and market developments may affect the Group's 
      future revenues, financial condition and results of operations. 
 
   -- The Group depends on third-parties to supply certain inputs and services 
      critical to its operations including certain inputs, services and 
      ingredients critical to its manufacturing processes. 
 
   -- Any disruption to the supply chain for any of the Group's products, or 
      any difficulties or delays in the manufacturing, distribution and sale of 
      its products may result in the Group being unable to continue marketing 
      or developing a product, or may result in the Group being unable to do so 
      on a commercially viable basis for some period of time. 
 
   -- The manufacture of the Group's products is subject to extensive oversight 
      by various regulatory agencies. Regulatory approvals or interventions 
      associated with changes to manufacturing sites, ingredients or 
      manufacturing processes could lead to significant delays, an increase in 
      operating costs, lost product sales, an interruption of research 
      activities or the delay of new product launches. 
 
   -- The nature of producing plasma-based therapies may prevent Shire from 
      timely responding to market forces and effectively managing its 
      production capacity. 
 
   -- The Group has a portfolio of products in various stages of research and 
      development. The successful development of these products is 
      highly uncertain and requires significant expenditures and time, and 
      there is no guarantee that these products will receive regulatory 
      approval. 
 
   -- The actions of certain customers could affect the Group's ability to sell 
      or market products profitably. Fluctuations in buying or distribution 
      patterns by such customers can adversely affect the Group's revenues, 
      financial conditions or results of operations. 
 
   -- Failure to comply with laws and regulations governing the sales and 
      marketing of its products could materially impact Shire's revenues and 
      profitability. 
 
   -- The Group's products and product candidates face substantial 
      competition in the product markets in which it operates. 
 
   -- The Group's patented products are subject to significant competition from 
      generics. 
 
   -- Adverse outcomes in legal matters and other disputes, including the 
      Group's ability to enforce and defend patents and other intellectual 
      property rights required for its business, could have a material adverse 
      effect on the Group's revenues, financial condition or results of 
      operations. 
 
   -- The Group may fail to obtain, maintain, enforce or defend the 
      intellectual property rights required to conduct its business. 
 
   -- The Group faces intense competition for highly qualified personnel from 
      other companies and organizations. 
 
   -- Failure to successfully execute or attain strategic objectives from the 
      Group's acquisitions and growth strategy may adversely affect the Group's 
      financial condition and results of operations. 
 
   -- Shire's growth strategy depends in part upon its ability to expand its 
      product portfolio through external collaborations, which, if unsuccessful, 
      may adversely affect the development and sale of its products. 
 
   -- A slowdown of global economic growth, or economic instability of 
      countries in which the Group does business, could have negative 
      consequences for the Group's business and increase the risk of 
      non-payment by the Group's customers. 
 
   -- Changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates could have 
      a material adverse effect on Shire's operating results and liquidity. 
 
   -- The Group is subject to evolving and complex tax laws, which may result 
      in additional liabilities that may adversely affect the Group's financial 
      condition or results of operations. 
 
   -- If a marketed product fails to work effectively or causes adverse side 
      effects, this could result in damage to the Group's reputation, the 
      withdrawal of the product and legal action against the Group. 
 
   -- The Group is dependent on information technology and its systems and 
      infrastructure face certain risks, including from service disruptions, 
      the loss of sensitive or confidential information, cyber-attacks and 
      other security breaches or data leakages that could have a material 
      adverse effect on the Group's revenues, financial condition or results of 
      operations. 
 
   -- Shire faces risks relating to the expected exit of the United Kingdom 
      from the European Union. 
 
 
   Risks Related to the Combination with Baxalta Incorporated 
 
 
   -- The Group may not successfully integrate the businesses of Shire 
      and Baxalta. 
 
   -- Shire has incurred significant additional indebtedness in connection with 
      the acquisition, which has decreased the Group's business flexibility and 
      increased its interest expense. All of the Group's debt obligations have 
      priority over the Group's Ordinary Shares and ADSs with respect to 
      payment in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up. 
 
   -- Uncertainties associated with the combination may cause a loss of 
      employees and may otherwise affect the future business and operations of 
      Shire and the combined Group. 
 
   -- Baxalta only operated as an independent company from July 1, 2015 until 
      the consummation of its merger with Shire on June 3, 2016, and Baxalta's 
      historical financial information is not necessarily representative of the 
      results that Baxalta would have achieved as a separate, publicly traded 
      company, and may not be a reliable indicator of future results of 
      Baxalta. Moreover, any pro forma financial information published by 
      the Group is not necessarily representative of the results that the Group 
      would have achieved, and may not be a reliable indicator of 
      future results. 
 
   -- Baxter may not satisfy its obligations under various transaction 
      agreements that have been executed as part of the separation or Shire may 
      fail to have necessary systems and services in place when certain of the 
      transaction agreements expire. 
 
   -- The acquisition of Baxalta could result in significant liability to the 
      Group if the combination causes the spin-off of Baxalta from Baxter or a 
      Later Distribution to be taxable. 
 
   -- In connection with the merger with Baxalta, the separation and the Later 
      Distributions could result in significant liability to the Group due to 
      Baxalta's spin-off from Baxter. 
 
   -- Certain Baxalta agreements may contain change of control provisions that 
      may have been triggered by the merger that, if acted upon or not waived, 
      could cause the Group to lose the benefit of such agreement and incur 
      liabilities or replacement costs, which could have a material adverse 
      effect on the Group. 
 
   -- New regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury may impact 
      the Group following the merger with Baxalta.

   NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
 
   1.            Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 
 
   Basis of Presentation 
 
   These interim financial statements of Shire plc and its subsidiaries 
(collectively "Shire" or the "Group") are unaudited. They have been 
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in 
the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). 
 
   The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016 was derived from 
the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of that date. 
 
   These interim Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read 
in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and 
accompanying notes included in the Group's Annual Report and Accounts 
for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC on February 
22, 2017. 
 
   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in 
financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been 
condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. However, 
these interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting 
of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, 
necessary to fairly state the results of the interim period and the 
Group believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information 
presented not misleading. Interim results are not necessarily indicative 
of results to be expected for the full year. 
 
   On June 3, 2016, the Group completed its acquisition of Baxalta for 
$32.4 billion, representing the fair value of purchase consideration. 
The Group's Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the 
results of Baxalta from the date of acquisition. For further details 
regarding the acquisition, refer to Note 2, Business Combinations, of 
these Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. 
 
   Use of Estimates 
 
   The preparation of Financial Statements, in conformity with U.S. GAAP 
and SEC regulations, requires management to make estimates, judgments 
and assumptions that affect the reported and disclosed amounts of assets, 
liabilities and equity at the date of the Unaudited Consolidated 
Financial Statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
during the period. On an on-going basis, the Group evaluates its 
estimates, judgments and methodologies. Estimates are based on 
historical experience, current conditions and on various other 
assumptions that are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of 
which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of 
assets, liabilities and equity and the amounts of revenues and expenses. 
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different 
assumptions or conditions. 
 
   New Accounting Pronouncements 
 
   From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the 
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting 
bodies that the Group adopts as of the specified effective date. Unless 
otherwise discussed below, the Group does not believe that the impact of 
recently issued standards that are not yet effective will have a 
material impact on the Group's financial position or results of 
operations upon adoption. 
 
   Adopted during the current period 
 
   Inventory 
 
   In July 2015, the FASB issued new guidance which requires an entity to 
measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net 
realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the 
ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of 
completion, disposal and transportation. The Group adopted this standard 
as of January 1, 2017, which did not impact the Group's financial 
position or results of operations. 
 
   Share-Based Payment Accounting 
 
   In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 
2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to 
Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard requires 
recognition of the income tax effects of vested or settled awards in the 
income statement and involves several other aspects of the accounting 
for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax 
consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities 
and classification on the statement of cash flows and allows a one-time 
accounting policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The 
new standard was effective January 1, 2017. 
 
   The Group adopted ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017. Before 
adoption, excess tax benefits or deficiencies from the Group's equity 
awards were recorded as Additional paid-in capital in its Consolidated 
Balance Sheets. Upon adoption, the Group recorded any excess tax 
benefits or deficiencies from its equity awards in its Consolidated 
Statements of Operations in the reporting periods in which vesting or 
settlement occurs. 
 
   Amendments related to accounting for excess tax benefits have been 
adopted prospectively, resulting in recognition of excess tax benefits 
against Income taxes rather than Additional paid-in capital of $11.5 
million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. 
 
   As a result of the adoption, the Group recorded an adjustment to 
Retained earnings of $39.0 million to recognize net operating loss 
carryforwards attributable to excess tax benefits on stock compensation 
that had not been previously recognized to Additional paid-in capital. 
 
   Excess tax benefits for share-based payments are now included in Net 
cash provided by operating activities rather than Net cash provided by 
financing activities. The changes have been applied prospectively in 
accordance with the ASU and prior periods have not been adjusted. 
 
   Upon adoption of ASU 2016-09, the Group elected to account for 
forfeitures in relation to service conditions as they occur. The change 
was applied on a modified retrospective basis with a cumulative effect 
adjustment to Retained earnings of $10.7 million as of January 1, 2017. 
 
   Definition of a Business 
 
   In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations 
(Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This new standard 
clarifies the definition of a business and provides guidance to 
determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a 
business. The Group adopted this standard prospectively on January 1, 
2017. 
 
   To be adopted in future periods 
 
   Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment 
 
   In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill 
and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test of Goodwill Impairment. This 
new standard simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for 
impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 
2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair 
value of a reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying amount of that 
goodwill. This standard will be effective for the Group as of January 1, 
2020, with early adoption permitted for annual goodwill impairment tests 
performed after January 1, 2017. The Group does not expect the adoption 
of this standard to have a material impact on its financial position and 
results of operations. 
 
   Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
 
   In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts 
with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes all existing revenue 
recognition requirements, including most industry-specific guidance. The 
new standard requires a Group to recognize revenue when it transfers 
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the 
consideration that the Group expects to receive for those goods or 
services. The new standard also requires additional qualitative and 
quantitative disclosures. 
 
   In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts 
with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which 
delayed the effective date of the new standard from January 1, 2017 to 
January 1, 2018. The FASB also agreed to allow entities to choose to 
adopt the standard as of the original effective date. 
 
   The FASB has subsequently issued five additional ASUs amending the 
guidance in Topic 606, each with the same effective date and transition 
date of January 1, 2018. This amended guidance has been considered in 
the Group's overall assessment of the new standard. 
 
   Shire will adopt this standard on the effective date of January 1, 2018. 
The Group is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the 
potential impact on its financial position and results of operations of 
adopting this guidance. The Group has identified two primary revenue 
streams from contracts with customers as part of its initial assessment: 
1) product sales and 2) licensing arrangements. Shire is in the process 
of evaluating these contracts and is not yet able to estimate the 
anticipated impact to the Group's financial statements from the 
application of the new standard. 
 
   Financial Instrument Accounting 
 
   In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments 
- Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial 
Assets and Financial Liabilities. The new standard amends certain 
aspects of accounting and disclosure requirements of financial 
instruments, including the requirement that equity investments with 
readily determinable fair values be measured at fair value with changes 
in fair value recognized in the results of operations. This standard 
will be effective for the Group as of January 1, 2018. The Group is 
currently evaluating the method of adoption and the potential impact on 
its financial position and results of operations of adopting this 
guidance. 
 
   Leases 
 
   In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). 
The new accounting guidance will require the recognition of all lease 
assets and lease liabilities by lessees and sets forth new disclosure 
requirements for those lease assets and liabilities. The standard 
requires lessees to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities 
on the balance sheet using a modified retrospective approach at the 
beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial 
statements. This standard will be effective for the Group as of January 
1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Group is currently evaluating 
the potential impact on its financial position and results of operations 
of adopting this guidance. 
 
   Statement of Cash Flows 
 
   In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows 
(Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. 
The new standard clarifies certain aspects of the statement of cash 
flows, and aims to reduce diversity in practice regarding how certain 
transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. This 
standard will be effective for the Group as of January 1, 2018. Early 
adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to 
have a significant impact on the Group's Consolidated Statement of Cash 
Flows. 
 
   In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows 
(Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The new guidance is intended to reduce 
diversity in the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash 
equivalents in the statement.  The guidance requires that restricted 
cash and restricted cash equivalents be included as components of total 
cash and cash equivalents as presented on the statement of cash flows. 
This standard will be effective for the Group as of January 1, 2018. The 
adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact 
on the Group's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. 
 
   Income Taxes 
 
   In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 
740): Intra-Entity Transfers Other than Inventory. This standard removes 
the current exception in U.S. GAAP prohibiting entities from recognizing 
current and deferred income tax expenses or benefits related to transfer 
of assets, other than inventory, within the consolidated entity. The 
current exception to defer the recognition of any tax impact on the 
transfer of inventory within the consolidated entity until it is sold to 
a third party remains unaffected. This standard will be effective for 
the Group as of January 1, 2018, with the early adoption permitted. The 
Group is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the potential 
impact on its financial position and results of operations of adopting 
this guidance. 
 
   Retirement Benefits Income Statement Presentation 
 
   In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07 Compensation - Retirement 
Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension 
Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The standard amends 
the income statement presentation of the components of net periodic 
benefit cost for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. 
The standard requires entities to (1) disaggregate the 
current-service-cost component from the other components of net benefit 
cost (the "other components") and present it with other current 
compensation costs for related employees in the income statement and (2) 
present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and 
outside of income from operations if such a subtotal is presented. The 
standard also requires entities to disclose the income statement lines 
that contain the other components if they are not presented on 
appropriately described separate lines. This standard will be effective 
for the Group as of January 1, 2018. The Group does not expect the 
adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its financial 
position and results of operations. 
 
   Share-Based Payment Accounting 
 
   In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock 
Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Modification Accounting. The new 
standard clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a 
share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. This 
standard will be effective for the Group as of January 1, 2018. Early 
adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to 
have a significant impact on the Group's financial position and results 
of operations. 
 
   Going concern 
 
   The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate 
resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable 
future. Accordingly, the Directors consider it appropriate to adopt the 
going concern basis of accounting in preparing the Half-yearly Report. 
 
   2.         Business Combinations 
 
   Acquisition of Baxalta 
 
   On June 3, 2016, Shire acquired all of the outstanding common stock of 
Baxalta for $18.00 per share in cash and 0.1482 Shire American 
Depository Shares ("ADSs") per Baxalta share, or if a former Baxalta 
shareholder properly elected, 0.4446 Shire ordinary shares per Baxalta 
share. 
 
   Baxalta was a global biopharmaceutical company that focused on 
developing, manufacturing and commercializing therapies for orphan 
diseases and underserved conditions in hematology, immunology and 
oncology. 
 
   The purchase price consideration for the acquisition of Baxalta was 
finalized in the second quarter of 2017. The fair value of the purchase 
price consideration consisted of the following: 
 
 
 
 
(In millions)                                             Fair value 
Cash paid to shareholders                                $  12,366.7 
Fair value of stock issued to shareholders                  19,353.2 
Fair value of partially vested stock options and RSUs 
 assumed                                                       508.8 
Contingent consideration payable                               165.0 
Total purchase price consideration                       $  32,393.7 
 
 
   The acquisition of Baxalta was accounted for as a business combination 
using the acquisition method of accounting. Shire issued 305.2 million 
shares to former Baxalta shareholders at the date of the acquisition. 
For a more detailed description of the fair value of the partially 
vested stock options and RSUs assumed, refer to Note 27, Share-based 
Compensation Plans, of the Group's Annual Report and Accounts for the 
year ended December 31, 2016. 
 
   The assets acquired and the liabilities assumed from Baxalta have been 
recorded at their fair value as of June 3, 2016, the date of 
acquisition. The Group's Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements 
included the results of Baxalta from the date of acquisition. 
 
   The purchase price allocation for the acquisition of Baxalta was 
finalized in the second quarter of 2017. The Group's allocation of the 
purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the 
acquisition date, including measurement period adjustments, is outlined 
below.

   The measurement period adjustments for Intangible assets reflect changes 
in the estimated fair value of currently marketed products and IPR&D. 
Changes are mainly related to finalizing the unit of account judgments 
and other changes in estimates including Cost of sales allocation and 
royalty expense. The measurement period adjustments for Inventory 
primarily reflect refinements in the estimated selling price of 
inventory. The changes in the estimated fair values primarily are to 
more accurately reflect market participant assumptions about facts and 
circumstances existing as of the acquisition date. The measurement 
period adjustments did not result from intervening events subsequent to 
the acquisition date. 
 
   As a result of measurement period adjustments related to the change in 
fair value of currently marketed products and inventory, a charge of 
$85.2 million was recognized in Cost of sales and a benefit of $23.3 
million was recognized in Amortization of acquired intangible assets, 
respectively, in the Group's Unaudited Consolidated Statements of 
Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017. These adjustments 
would have been recorded during the year ended December 31, 2016 if 
these adjustments had been recognized as of the acquisition date. 
 
   Intangible assets 
 
   The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets has been estimated 
using an income approach, which is a valuation technique that provides 
an estimate of the fair value of an asset based on market participant 
expectations of the incremental after tax cash flows an asset would 
generate over its remaining useful life. The useful lives for currently 
marketed products were determined based upon the remaining useful 
economic lives of the assets that are expected to contribute to future 
cash flows. 
 
   Currently marketed products totaling $21,165.0 million relate to 
intellectual property ("IP") rights acquired for Baxalta's currently 
marketed products. The estimated useful life of the intangible assets 
related to currently marketed products range from 6 to 23 years 
(weighted average 21 years), with amortization being recorded on a 
straight-line basis. 
 
   IPR&D intangible assets totaling $160.0 million represent the value 
assigned to research and development ("R&D") projects acquired. The 
IPR&D intangible assets are capitalized and accounted for as 
indefinite-lived intangible assets and will be subject to impairment 
testing until completion or abandonment of the projects. Upon successful 
completion of each project, the Group will make a separate determination 
of the estimated useful life of the IPR&D intangible asset and the 
related amortization will be recorded as an expense over the estimated 
useful life. 
 
   Some of the more significant assumptions inherent in the development of 
those asset valuations include the estimated net cash flows for each 
year for each asset or product (including net revenues, cost of sales, 
R&D costs, selling and marketing costs, working capital/asset 
contributory asset charges and other cash flow assumptions), the 
appropriate discount rate to select in order to measure the risk 
inherent in each future cash flow stream, the assessment of each asset's 
life cycle, the potential regulatory and commercial success risks, 
competitive trends impacting the asset and each cash flow stream as well 
as other factors. 
 
   The discount rate used to arrive at the present value at the acquisition 
date of the IPR&D intangible assets was 9.5% to reflect the internal 
rate of return and incremental commercial uncertainty in the cash flow 
projections. No assurances can be given that the underlying assumptions 
used to prepare the discounted cash flow analysis will not change. For 
these and other reasons, actual results may vary significantly from 
estimated results. 
 
   Goodwill 
 
   Goodwill of $12,498.6 million, which is not deductible for tax purposes, 
includes the expected synergies that will result from combining the 
operations of Baxalta with Shire, intangible assets that do not qualify 
for separate recognition at the time of the acquisition, the value of 
the assembled workforce, and impacted by establishing a deferred tax 
liability for the acquired identifiable intangible assets which have no 
tax basis. 
 
   Contingent consideration 
 
   The Group acquired certain contingent obligations classified as 
contingent consideration related to Baxalta's historical business 
combinations. Additional consideration is conditionally due upon the 
achievement of certain milestones related to the development, regulatory, 
first commercial sale and other sales milestones, which could total up 
to approximately $1.5 billion. The Group may also pay royalties based on 
certain product sales. The Group estimated the fair value of the assumed 
contingent consideration to be $165.0 million using a probability 
weighting approach that considered the possible outcomes based on 
assumptions related to the timing and probability of the product launch 
date, discount rates matched to the timing of first payment and 
probability of success rates and discount adjustments on the related 
cash flows. 
 
   Inventory 
 
   The estimated fair value of work-in-process and finished goods inventory 
was determined utilizing the net realizable value, based on the expected 
selling price of the inventory, adjusted for incremental costs to 
complete the manufacturing process and for direct selling efforts, as 
well as for a reasonable profit allowance. The estimated fair value of 
raw material inventory was valued at replacement cost, which is equal to 
the value a market participant would pay to acquire the inventory. 
 
   The fair value adjustment related to inventory is expensed based on the 
expected product-specific inventory utilization, which is reviewed on a 
periodic basis and is recorded within Cost of sales in the Group's 
Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. 
 
   Retirement plans 
 
   The Group assumed pension plans as part of the acquisition of Baxalta, 
including defined benefit and post-retirement benefit plans in the U.S. 
and foreign jurisdictions, which had a net liability balance of $610.4 
million. As of June 3, 2016, the Baxalta defined benefit pension plans 
had assets with a fair value of $358.5 million. 
 
   Integration and acquisition costs 
 
   In the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Group expensed 
$192.4 million and $310.9 million, respectively, relating to the 
acquisition and integration of Baxalta, which have been recorded within 
Integration and acquisition costs in the Group's Unaudited Consolidated 
Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 4, Integration and Acquisition 
Costs, for further information regarding the Group's Integration and 
acquisition costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

following pro forma adjustments: 
 
 
   1. an adjustment to increase net income for the three and six months ended 
      June 30, 2016 by $371.8 million and $411.3 million, respectively, to 
      eliminate integration and acquisition related costs incurred by Shire and 
      Baxalta; 
 
   2. an adjustment to increase net income for the three and six months ended 
      June 30, 2016 by $218.5 million and $171.6 million, respectively, to 
      reflect the expense related to the unwind of inventory fair value 
      adjustments as inventory is sold; 
 
   3. an adjustment to increase amortization expense for the three and six 
      months ended June 30, 2016 by $121.8 million and $306.0 million, 
      respectively, related to the identifiable intangible assets acquired; and 
 
   4. an adjustment to decrease net income for the three and six months ended 
      June 30, 2016 by $33.8 million and $94.2 million, respectively, primarily 
      related to the additional interest expense associated with the debt 
      incurred to partially fund the acquisition of Baxalta and the 
      amortization of related deferred debt issuance costs. 
 
 
   The adjustments above are stated net of their tax effects, where 
applicable. 
 
   Acquisition of Dyax 
 
   On January 22, 2016, Shire acquired all of the outstanding common stock 
of Dyax for $37.30 per share in cash. Under the terms of the merger 
agreement, former Dyax shareholders may receive additional value through 
a non-tradable contingent value right worth $4.00 per share, payable 
upon U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") approval of SHP643 
(formerly DX-2930) in Hereditary Angioedema ("HAE"). 
 
   Dyax was a publicly-traded, Massachusetts-based rare disease 
biopharmaceutical company primarily focused on the development of plasma 
kallikrein ("pKal") inhibitors for the treatment of HAE. Dyax's most 
advanced clinical program was SHP643, a Phase 3 program with the 
potential for improved efficacy and convenience for HAE patients. SHP643 
has received Fast Track, Breakthrough Therapy, and Orphan Drug 
Designations by the FDA and has also received Orphan Drug status in the 
EU. Dyax's sole marketed product, KALBITOR, is a pKal inhibitor for the 
treatment of acute attacks of HAE in patients 12 years of age and older. 
 
   The acquisition of Dyax was accounted for as a business combination 
using the acquisition method. The acquisition-date fair value 
consideration was $6,330.0 million, comprising cash paid on closing of 
$5,934.0 million and the fair value of the contingent value right of 
$396.0 million (maximum payable $646.0 million). The assets acquired and 
the liabilities assumed from Dyax have been recorded at their fair value 
as of January 22, 2016, the date of acquisition. The Group's Unaudited 
Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of Dyax as of 
January 22, 2016. 
 
   The purchase price allocation for the acquisition of Dyax was finalized 
in the first quarter of 2017. The allocation of the total purchase price 
is outlined below.

   Currently marketed products 
 
   Currently marketed products totaling $135.0 million relate to 
intellectual property rights acquired for KALBITOR. The fair value of 
the currently marketed product has been estimated using an income 
approach, based on the present value of incremental after tax cash flows 
attributable to KALBITOR. 
 
   The estimated useful life of the KALBITOR intangible asset is 18 years, 
with amortization being recorded on a straight-line basis. 
 
   IPR&D 
 
   The IPR&D asset of $4,100.0 million relates to Dyax's clinical program 
SHP643, a Phase 3 program with the potential for improved efficacy and 
convenience for HAE patients. The IPR&D intangible asset is capitalized 
and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets and will be 
subject to impairment testing until completion or abandonment of the 
projects. The fair value of this IPR&D asset was estimated based on an 
income approach, using the present value of incremental after tax cash 
flows expected to be generated by this development project. The 
estimated cash flows have been probability adjusted to take into account 
the development stage of completion and the remaining risks and 
uncertainties surrounding the future development and commercialization. 
 
   The estimated probability adjusted after tax cash flows used to estimate 
the fair value of intangible assets have been discounted at 9%. 
 
   Royalty rights 
 
   Intangible assets totaling $425.0 million relate to royalty rights 
arising from licensing agreements of a portfolio of product candidates. 
This portfolio includes two approved products, marketed by Eli Lilly & 
Company, and various development-stage products. Multiple product 
candidates with other pharmaceutical companies are in various stages of 
clinical development for which the Group is eligible to receive future 
royalties and/or milestone payments. 
 
   The fair value of these royalty rights has been estimated using an 
income approach, based on the present value of incremental after-tax 
cash flows attributable to each royalty right. 
 
   The estimated useful lives of these royalty rights range from seven to 
nine years (weighted average eight years), with amortization being 
recorded on a straight-line basis. 
 
   Goodwill 
 
   Goodwill of $2,702.1 million, which is not deductible for tax purposes, 
includes the expected synergies that will result from combining the 
operations of Dyax with Shire; intangible assets that do not qualify for 
separate recognition at the time of the acquisition; the value of the 
assembled workforce; and impacted by establishing a deferred tax 
liability for the acquired identifiable intangible assets which have no 
tax basis.

   The unaudited pro forma financial information above reflects the 
following pro forma adjustments: 
 
 
   1. an adjustment to increase net income for the three and six months ended 
      June 30, 2016 by $2.0 million and $101.2 million, respectively, to 
      eliminate acquisition related costs incurred by Shire and Dyax; and 
 
   2. an adjustment to increase amortization expense for the six months ended 
      June 30, 2016 by $1.3 million related to the identifiable intangible 
      assets acquired. 
 
 
   The adjustments above are stated net of their tax effects, where 
applicable. 
 
   3.         Collaborative and Other Licensing Arrangements 
 
   The Group is party to certain collaborative or licensing arrangements. 
In some of these arrangements, Shire and the licensee are both actively 
involved in the development and commercialization of the licensed 
product and have exposure to risks and rewards dependent on its 
commercial success. 
 
   During the second quarter of 2017, Shire entered into an agreement to 
license the exclusive worldwide rights to SHP659 (formerly known as 
P-321) from Parion Sciences ("Parion"). SHP659 is a Phase 2 
investigational epithelial sodium channel inhibitor for the potential 
treatment of dry eye disease in adults. Under the terms of the agreement, 
Shire will develop, and if approved, commercialize this compound. Shire 
made an initial $20.0 million upfront license payment, which was 
included in Research and development expense in the Group's Unaudited 
Consolidated Statements of Operations. Parion will be entitled to 
receive additional potential milestone payments up to $515.0 million 
based on clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones and Parion has 
the option to co-fund through additional stages of development in 
exchange for enhanced tiered low double-digit royalties. In addition, 
Parion has the option to co-fund commercialization activities and 
participate in the financial outcome from those activities. 
 
   4.         Integration and Acquisition Costs 
 
   In the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Shire recorded 
Integration and acquisition costs of $343.7 million and $459.7 million, 
respectively, primarily due to the acquisition and integration of 
Baxalta and Dyax. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, 
$151.2 million and $147.7 million is included in Integration and 
acquisition costs relating to the change in fair value of contingent 
consideration payable. 
 
   During the second quarter of 2017, Shire entered its second phase of 
integration activities. The costs associated with this phase will 
primarily relate to headcount reduction as The Group continues to 
advance and complete activities related to exiting the transition 
services agreements ("TSA") with Baxter, integrating legal entities and 
rationalization of the Group's manufacturing facilities. The Group also 
plans to drive savings through the continued prioritization of its 
research and development programs and continued consolidation of its 
commercial operations. The integration of Baxalta is estimated to be 
completed by mid to late 2019. 
 
   The Baxalta integration and acquisition costs include $80.2 million and 
$117.1 million, respectively, of employee severance and acceleration of 
stock compensation, $50.4 million and $85.6 million, respectively, of 
third-party professional fees and $17.2 million and $41.7 million, 
respectively, of expenses associated with facility consolidations for 
the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The Group expects the 
majority of these expenses, except for certain costs related to facility 
consolidations, to be paid within the next 12 months. The Group also 
recognized $33.6 million of expenses during the three and six months 
ended June 30, 2017 related to asset impairments in Integration and 
acquisition costs. 
 
   The following table summarizes the type and amount of integration costs 
recorded as of June 30, 2017:

   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, Shire recorded 
Integration and acquisition costs of $363.0 million and $454.1 million, 
respectively, primarily related to the acquisition and integration of 
Dyax and Baxalta. These costs primarily consist of $67.1 million and 
$125.6 million, respectively, of acquisition costs including legal, 
investment banking and other transaction-related fees, $254.5 million 
and $265.5 million, respectively, of employee severance and acceleration 
of stock compensation, $79.2 million and $89.2 million, respectively, of 
third-party professional fees and offset by $56.5 million and $45.1 
million, respectively, of change in fair value of contingent 
consideration. 
 
   5.         Results of Discontinued Operations 
 
   Following the divestment of the Group's DERMAGRAFT business in January 
2014, the operating results associated with the DERMAGRAFT business have 
been classified as discontinued operations in the Group's Unaudited 
Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Group recorded a 
loss of $1.2 million and gain of $19.0 million (net of tax benefit of 
$0.6 million and expense of $10.9 million), respectively, primarily 
related to legal contingencies related to the divested DERMAGRAFT 
business and the release of escrow to Shire, respectively. 
 
   In January 2017, Shire entered into a final settlement agreement with 
the Department of Justice ("DOJ") in the amount of $350.0 million, plus 
interest which was accrued in 2016 and paid during the six months ended 
June 30, 2017. 
 
   After the civil settlement with the DOJ had been finalized, Shire and 
ABH's equity holders entered into a settlement agreement and ABH's 
equity holders released the $37.5 million escrow to Shire. Shire 
released the claims against ABH equity holders upon receiving the entire 
amount held in escrow. 
 
   For a more detailed description of the DERMAGRAFT legal proceedings, 
refer to Note 25, Legal and Other Proceedings, of Shire's Annual Report 
and Accounts for the year ended December 31, 2016. 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Group recorded a 
loss of $248.7 million and $239.2 million (net of tax benefit of $100.9 
million and $95.4 million), respectively, related to costs associated 
with the divestment. 
 
   6.            Accounts Receivable, Net

   Depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 
was $120.7 million and $243.6 million, respectively, and for the three 
and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $47.9 million and $82.2 million, 
respectively. 
 
   During the second quarter of 2017, the Group determined it would divest 
certain facilities as part of the Group's integration efforts. The Group 
classified $74.8 million of property, plant and equipment as held for 
sale, which is reported in Prepaid expenses and other current assets. 
The $74.8 million of property, plant and equipment is net of a $25.4 
million impairment charge reported in Integration and acquisition costs 
during the second quarter of 2017.

   The decrease in Intangible assets, net during the six months ended June 
30, 2017 relates to the measurement period adjustments of the 
acquisition of Baxalta. For a more detailed description of measurement 
period adjustments, refer to Note 2, Business Combinations, to these 
Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. 
 
   In connection with the acquisition of Baxalta, the Group acquired IP 
rights related to currently marketed products of $21,165.0 million, 
IPR&D assets of $160.0 million and other contract rights of $42.2 
million. For a more detailed description of this acquisition, refer to 
Note 2, Business Combinations, to these Unaudited Consolidated Financial 
Statements. 
 
   In connection with the acquisition of Dyax on January 22, 2016, the 
Group acquired IP rights related to currently marketed products of 
$135.0 million, IPR&D assets of $4,100.0 million and royalty rights of 
$425.0 million. For a more detailed description of this acquisition, 
refer to Note 2, Business Combinations, to these Unaudited Consolidated 
Financial Statements. 
 
   The Group reviews its amortized intangible assets for impairment 
whenever events or circumstances suggest that their carrying value may 
not be recoverable. Unamortized intangible assets are reviewed for 
impairment annually or whenever events or circumstances suggest that 
their carrying value may not be recoverable. 
 
   Estimated amortization expense can be affected by various factors 
including future acquisitions, disposals of product rights, regulatory 
approval and subsequent amortization of acquired IPR&D projects, foreign 
exchange movements and the technological advancement and regulatory 
approval of competitor products. The estimated future amortization of 
acquired intangible assets for the next five years is expected to be as 
follows:

   Marketable equity and debt securities are included within Investments in 
the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contingent consideration 
receivable is included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets 
and Other non-current assets in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance 
Sheets. Contingent consideration payable is included within Other 
current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Unaudited 
Consolidated Balance Sheets. For information regarding the Group's 
derivative arrangements, refer to Note 12, Financial Instruments, to 
these Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. 
 
   Certain estimates and judgments were required to develop the fair value 
amounts. The estimated fair value amounts shown above are not 
necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Group would realize upon 
disposition, nor do they indicate the Group's intent or ability to 
dispose of the financial instrument. 
 
   The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair 
value of each material class of financial instrument: 
 
 
   -- Marketable equity securities: the fair values of marketable equity 
      securities are estimated based on quoted market prices for those 
      investments. 
 
   -- Marketable debt securities: the fair values of debt securities are 
      obtained from pricing services or broker/dealers who either use quoted 
      prices in an active market or proprietary pricing applications, which 
      include observable market information for like or same securities. 
 
   -- Contingent consideration receivable: the fair value of the contingent 
      consideration receivable has been estimated using the income approach 
      (using a probability weighted discounted cash flow method). 
 
   -- Derivative instruments: the fair values of the swap and forward foreign 
      exchange contracts have been determined using the month-end interest rate 
      and foreign exchange rates, respectively. 
 
   -- Contingent consideration payable: the fair value of the contingent 
      consideration payable has been estimated using the income approach (using 
      a probability weighted discounted cash flow method). 
 
 
   Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Using 
Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) 
 
   The following table provides a roll forward of the fair values of the 
Group's contingent consideration receivable and payables which include 
Level 3 measurements:

Balance as of June 30,                      $1,190.3   $993.8 
 
 
   In 2017, the increase in contingent consideration payable was primarily 
related to the Group's change in fair value of contingent consideration 
resulting from positive topline data for SHP643. In 2016, the increase 
in contingent consideration payable was related to the Group's 
acquisition of Dyax and Baxalta. Other contingent consideration payable 
primarily relates to foreign currency adjustments. 
 
   Of the $1,190.3 million of contingent consideration payable as of June 
30, 2017, $67.4 million is recorded within Other current liabilities and 
$1,122.9 million is recorded within Other non-current liabilities in the 
Group's Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. 
 
   Joint venture net written option 
 
   During the six months ended June 30, 2017, Shire executed option 
agreements related to a joint venture that provides Shire with a call 
option on the partner's investment in joint venture equity and the 
partner with a put option on its investment in joint venture equity. 
The Group has recorded a liability of $25.0 million for the net written 
option based on the estimated fair value of these options as of June 30, 
2017 and in the future will re-measure the instrument to fair value 
through the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

   Contingent consideration payable represents future milestones and 
royalties the Group may be required to pay in conjunction with various 
business combinations and license agreements. Contingent consideration 
receivable represents future royalties the Group may be entitled to 
receive in conjunction with sales and purchase agreements. The fair 
value of the Group's contingent consideration receivable and payable 
could significantly increase or decrease due to changes in certain 
assumptions which underpin the fair value measurements. Each set of 
assumptions is specific to the individual contingent consideration 
receivable or payable. 
 
   Financial assets and liabilities that are disclosed at fair value 
 
   The carrying amounts and estimated fair values as of June 30, 2017 and 
December 31, 2016 of the Group's financial assets and liabilities that 
are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows: 
 
 
 
 
                   June 30, 2017        December 31, 2016

   The estimated fair values of long-term debt were based upon recent 
observable market prices and are considered Level 2 in the fair value 
hierarchy. The estimated fair value of capital lease obligations is 
based on Level 2 inputs. 
 
   The carrying amounts of other financial assets and liabilities 
approximate their estimated fair value due to their short-term nature, 
such as liquidity and maturity of these amounts, or because there have 
been no significant changes since the asset or liability was last 
re-measured to fair value on a non-recurring basis.

   Due to the global nature of its operations, portions of the Group's 
revenues and operating expenses are recorded in currencies other than 
the U.S. dollar. The value of revenues and operating expenses measured 
in U.S. dollars is therefore subject to changes in foreign currency 
exchange rates. The main trading currencies of the Group are the U.S. 
dollar, Euro, British pound sterling, Swiss franc, Canadian dollar and 
Japanese yen. 
 
   Transactional exposure arises where transactions occur in currencies 
different to the functional currency of the relevant subsidiary. It is 
the Group's policy that these exposures are minimized to the extent 
practicable by denominating transactions in the subsidiary's functional 
currency. Where significant exposures remain, the Group uses foreign 
exchange contracts (spot, forward and swap contracts) to manage the 
exposure for balance sheet assets and liabilities that are denominated 
in currencies different to the functional currency of the relevant 
subsidiary. 
 
   The Group has master netting agreements with a number of counterparties 
to these foreign exchange contracts and on the occurrence of specified 
events, the Group has the ability to terminate contracts and settle them 
with a net payment by one party to the other. The Group has elected to 
present derivative assets and derivative liabilities on a gross basis in 
the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Group does not have credit 
risk related contingent features or collateral linked to the 
derivatives. 
 
   Designated Foreign Currency Derivatives 
 
   Certain foreign currency forward contracts were designated as cash flow 
hedges and accordingly, to the extent effective, any unrealized gains or 
losses on these foreign currency forward contracts were reported in 
AOCI. Realized gains and losses for the effective portion of such 
contracts were recognized in revenue or cost of sales when the sale of 
product in the currency being hedged was recognized. To the extent 
ineffective, hedge transaction gains and losses were reported in Other 
income/(expense), net. 
 
   The Group did not have any designated foreign currency contracts as of 
June 30, 2017. As of December 31, 2016 the Group had designated foreign 
currency forward contracts with a total notional value of $78.7 million, 
a maximum duration of six months; the fair value of these contracts was 
a net asset of $4.2 million. 
 
   The amount of ineffectiveness for the three and six months ended June 
30, 2017 was immaterial. 
 
   As of June 30, 2017, the Group had a total of $0.4 million of deferred 
gains included in AOCI which are expected to be recognized in earnings 
during the next 12 months, coinciding with when the hedged items are 
expected to impact earnings. 
 
   Undesignated Foreign Currency Derivatives 
 
   The Group uses forward contracts to mitigate the foreign currency risk 
related to certain balance sheet positions, including intercompany and 
third-party receivables and payables. The Group has not elected hedge 
accounting for these derivative instruments as the duration of these 
contracts is typically three months or less. The changes in fair value 
of these derivatives are reported in earnings. 
 
   The table below presents the notional amount, maximum duration and fair 
value for the undesignated foreign currency derivatives: 
 
 
 
 
(In millions, except duration)    June 30, 2017     December 31, 2016 
Notional amount                   $      1,495.1    $         1,309.1 
Maximum duration (in months)            3 months               3 months 
Fair value - net asset            $         10.9    $             6.7 
 
 
 
   The Group considers the impact of its and its counterparties' credit 
risk on the fair value of the contracts as well as the ability of each 
party to execute its contractual obligations. As of June 30, 2017, 
credit risk did not materially change the fair value of the Group's 
foreign currency contracts. 
 
   Interest Rate Contracts 
 
   The Group is exposed to the risk that its earnings and cash flows could 
be adversely impacted by fluctuations in benchmark interest rates 
relating to its debt obligations on which interest is set at floating 
rates. The Group's policy is to manage this risk to an acceptable level. 
The Group is principally exposed to interest rate risk on any borrowings 
under the Group's various debt facilities and on part of the senior 
notes assumed in connection with the acquisition of Baxalta. Interest on 
each of these debt obligations is set at floating rates, to the extent 
utilized. Shire's exposure under these facilities is to changes in U.S. 
dollar interest rates. For further details related to interest rates on 
the Group's various debt facilities, refer to Note 13, Borrowings and 
Capital Leases, to these Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. 
 
   Designated Interest Rate Derivatives 
 
   The effective portion of the changes in the fair value of interest rate 
swap contracts are recorded as a component of the senior notes assumed 
in connection with the acquisition of Baxalta with the ineffective 
portion recorded in Interest expense. Any net interest payments made or 
received on the interest rate swap contracts are recognized as a 
component of Interest expense in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements 
of Operations. 
 
   The table below presents the notional amount, maturity and fair value 
for the designated interest rate derivatives: 
 
 
 
 
(In millions, 
except maturity)          June 30, 2017             December 31, 2016

   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Group recognized 
losses of $0.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively, as 
ineffectiveness related to these contracts as a component of Interest 
expense. 
 
   Undesignated Interest Rate Derivatives 
 
   As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Group did not have any 
outstanding undesignated interest rate derivative instruments.

   Revolving Credit Facilities Agreement 
 
   On December 12, 2014, Shire entered into a $2.1 billion revolving credit 
facilities agreement (the "RCF") with a number of financial 
institutions. As of June 30, 2017, the Group utilized $735.0 million of 
the RCF. The RCF, which terminates on December 12, 2021, may be used for 
financing the general corporate purposes of Shire. The RCF incorporates 
a $250.0 million U.S. dollar and Euro swingline facility operating as a 
sub-limit thereof. 
 
   Term Loan Facilities Agreements 
 
   November 2015 Facilities Agreement 
 
   On November 2, 2015, Shire entered into a $5.6 billion facilities 
agreement (the "November 2015 Facilities Agreement"), which is comprised 
of three amortizing credit facilities with the following amounts 
outstanding as of June 30, 2017, and their respective ultimate maturity 
dates: 
 
 
 
 
(In millions)                     Amount outstanding       Maturity 
November 2015 Facility A           $            400.0  November 2, 2017

Total November 2015 Facilities     $          3,300.0 
 
 
 
   For the six month period ended June 30, 2017, the Group made $1.7 
billion of scheduled and advance repayments under the November 2015 
Facility B; consequently, $3.3 billion is outstanding as of June 30, 
2017. 
 
   Short-term uncommitted lines of credit ("Credit lines") 
 
   Shire has access to various Credit lines from a number of banks which 
are available to be utilized from time to time to provide short-term 
cash management flexibility. These Credit lines can be withdrawn by the 
banks at any time. The Credit lines are not relied upon for core 
liquidity. As of June 30, 2017, these Credit lines were not utilized. 
 
   Capital Lease Obligations 
 
   The capital leases are primarily related to office and manufacturing

   Reclassifications from AOCI to net income/loss during the three and six 
months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were not material. 
 
   16.          Taxation 
 
   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the effective tax rate 
on income from continuing operations was 9% (2016: -427%) and 5% (2016: 
2%), respectively. 
 
   The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 
was affected by the combined impact of the relative quantum of the 
profit before tax for the period by jurisdiction as well as significant 
acquisition and integration costs. 
 
   The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 
was affected by the combined impact of the relative quantum of the 
profit before tax for the period by jurisdiction and of the reversal of 
deferred tax liabilities from the acquisition of Baxalta (including in 
higher tax territories such as the U.S.) of inventory and intangible 
assets amortization as well as significant acquisition and integration 
costs. 
 
   17.          Earnings Per Share 
 
   The following table reconciles net income and loss and the weighted 
average ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per 
share ("EPS") for the periods presented:

   Weighted average number of basic shares excludes shares purchased by the 
Employee Benefit Trust and those under the shares buy-back program, 
which are both presented by Shire as treasury stock. Share-based awards 
to employees are calculated using the treasury method. 
 
   The share equivalents not included in the calculation of the diluted 
weighted average number of shares are shown below:

   Certain stock options have been excluded from the calculation of diluted 
EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 because 
either their exercise prices exceeded Shire's average share price during 
the calculation period, the required performance conditions were not 
satisfied as of the balance sheet date or their inclusion would have 
been antidilutive. 
 
   18.          Share-based Compensation Plans 
 
   Total share-based compensation recorded by the Group during the three 
and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 by line item is as follows:

   The table above includes pre-tax expense related to replacement and 
other awards held by Baxalta employees. This includes integration 
related expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 from 
the acceleration of unrecognized expense associated with certain 
employee terminations. 
 
   For further details on existing share-based compensation plans, refer to 
Note 27, Share-based Compensation Plans, of Shire's Annual Report and 
Accounts for the year ended December 31, 2016. 
 
   The Group made immaterial equity compensation grants to employees during 
the three months ended June 30, 2017. During the six months ended June 
30, 2017, the Group made equity compensation grants to employees 
consisting of 8.9 million of stock-settled share appreciation rights 
("SARs"), 2.1 million of restricted stock units ("RSUs") and 0.5 million 
of performance share units ("PSUs") equivalent in ordinary shares. 
 
   19.        Commitments and Contingencies 
 
   Leases 
 
   The Group leases land, facilities, motor vehicles and certain equipment 
under operating leases expiring through 2039. For the three and six 
months ended June 30, 2017, lease and rental expense totaled $42.4 
million and $85.0 million (2016: $22.8 million and $30.3 million, 
respectively), which is predominantly included in Cost of sales and 
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Group's Unaudited 
Consolidated Statements of Operations. 
 
   Letters of credit and guarantees 
 
   As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Group had irrevocable 
standby letters of credit and guarantees with various banks and 
insurance companies totaling $190.1 million and $139.7 million (being 
the contractual amounts), respectively, providing security for the 
Group's performance of various obligations. These obligations are 
primarily in respect of the recoverability of insurance claims, lease 
obligations and supply commitments. 
 
   Commitments 
 
   Clinical testing 
 
   As of June 30, 2017, the Group had committed to pay approximately 
$1,108.3 million (December 31, 2016: $1,037.4 million) to contract 
vendors for administering and executing clinical trials. The timing of 
these payments is dependent upon actual services performed by the 
organizations as determined by patient enrollment levels and related 
activities. 
 
   Contract manufacturing 
 
   As of June 30, 2017, the Group had committed to pay approximately $458.3 
million (December 31, 2016: $528.9 million) in respect of contract 
manufacturing. The Group expects to pay $190.3 million of these 
commitments in 2017. 
 
   Other purchasing commitments 
 
   As of June 30, 2017, the Group had committed to pay approximately 
$1,774.4 million (December 31, 2016: $1,745.4 million) for future 
purchases of goods and services, predominantly relating to active 
pharmaceutical ingredients sourcing. The Group expects to pay $876.8 
million of these commitments in 2017. 
 
   Investment commitments 
 
   As of June 30, 2017, the Group had outstanding commitments to purchase 
common stock and interests in companies and partnerships, respectively, 
for amounts totaling $58.5 million (December 31, 2016: $76.4 million) 
which may all be payable in 2017, depending on the timing of capital 
calls. The investment commitments include additional funding to certain 
variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which Shire is not the primary 
beneficiary. 
 
   Capital commitments 
 
   As of June 30, 2017, the Group had committed to spend $136.4 million 
(December 31, 2016: $100.5 million) on capital projects. 
 
   Baxter related tax indemnification 
 
   Baxter International Inc. ("Baxter") and Baxalta entered into a tax 
matters agreement, effective on the date of Baxalta's separation from 
Baxter, which employs a direct tracing approach, or where direct tracing 
approach is not feasible, an allocation methodology, to determine which 
company is liable for pre-separation income tax items for U.S. federal, 
state and foreign jurisdictions. With respect to tax liabilities that 
are directly traceable or allocated to Baxalta but for which Baxalta was 
not the primary obligor, Baxalta recorded a tax indemnification amount 
that would be due to Baxter upon Baxter discharging the associated tax 
liability to the taxing authority. As of June 30, 2017, the amount of 
the net tax indemnification amount was $25.5 million. 
 
   20.          Legal and Other Proceedings 
 
   The Group expenses legal costs when incurred. 
 
   The Group recognizes loss contingency provisions for probable losses 
when management is able to reasonably estimate the loss. When the 
estimated loss lies within a range, the Group records a loss contingency 
provision based on its best estimate of the probable loss. If no 
particular amount within that range is a better estimate than any other 
amount, the minimum amount is recorded.  Estimates of losses may be 
developed before the ultimate loss is known, and are therefore refined 
each accounting period as additional information becomes known. An 
outcome that deviates from the Group's estimate may result in an 
additional expense or release in a future accounting period. As of June 
30, 2017, provision for litigation losses, insurance claims and other 
disputes totaled $64.0 million (December 31, 2016: $415.0 million). 
 
   The Group's principal pending legal and other proceedings are disclosed 
below. The outcomes of these proceedings are not always predictable and 
can be affected by various factors. For those legal and other 
proceedings for which it is considered at least reasonably possible that 
a loss has been incurred, the Group discloses the possible loss or range 
of possible loss in excess of the recorded loss contingency provision, 
if any, where such excess is both material and estimable. 
 
   LIALDA 
 
   In May 2010, Shire was notified that Zydus Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. 
("Zydus") had submitted an ANDA under the Hatch-Waxman Act seeking 
permission to market a generic version of LIALDA. Within the requisite 
45-day period, Shire filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the 
District of Delaware against Zydus and Cadila Healthcare Limited, doing 
business as Zydus Cadila. A Markman hearing took place on January 29, 
2015 and a Markman ruling was issued on July 28, 2015. A trial took 
place between March 28, 2016 and April 1, 2016. On September 16, 2016 
the court issued its ruling finding that the proposed generic product 
would not infringe the asserted claims. Shire appealed the ruling to the 
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC"). On May 9, 2017, the 
CAFC affirmed the ruling of the district court. 
 
   In February 2012, Shire was notified that Osmotica Pharmaceutical 
Corporation ("Osmotica") had submitted an ANDA under the Hatch-Waxman 
Act seeking permission to market a generic version of LIALDA. Within the 
requisite 45-day period, Shire filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District 
Court for the Northern District of Georgia against Osmotica. A Markman 
hearing took place on August 22, 2013 and a Markman ruling was issued on 
September 25, 2014. The court issued an Order on February 27, 2015 in 
which all dates in the scheduling order have been stayed. 
 
   In March 2012, Shire was notified that Watson Laboratories Inc.-Florida 
had submitted an ANDA under the Hatch-Waxman Act seeking permission to 
market a generic version of LIALDA. Within the requisite 45-day period, 
Shire filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern 
District of Florida against Watson Laboratories Inc.-Florida and Watson 
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Watson Pharma, Inc. and Watson Laboratories, Inc. 
(collectively, "Watson") were subsequently added as defendants. A trial 
took place in April 2013 and on May 9, 2013 the trial court issued a 
decision finding that the proposed generic product infringes the 
patent-in-suit and that the patent is not invalid. Watson appealed the 
trial court's ruling to the CAFC and a hearing took place on December 2, 
2013. The ruling of the CAFC was issued on March 28, 2014 overruling the 
trial court on the interpretation of two claim terms and remanding the 
case for further proceedings. Shire petitioned the Supreme Court for a 
writ of certiorari which was granted on January 26, 2015. The Supreme 
Court also vacated the CAFC decision and remanded the case to the CAFC 
for further consideration in light of the Supreme Court's recent 
decision in Teva v. Sandoz. On June 3, 2015, the CAFC reaffirmed their 
previous decision to reverse the District Court's claims construction 
and remanded the case to the U.S. District Court for the Southern 
District of Florida. A trial was held on January 25-27, 2016. A ruling 
was issued on March 28, 2016 upholding the validity of the patent and 
finding that Watson's proposed ANDA product infringes the 
patent-in-suit. Watson appealed the ruling to the CAFC and oral argument 
took place on October 5, 2016. The CAFC issued a ruling on February 10, 
2017 reversing the trial court's ruling of infringement and remanding 
the case to the lower court for entry of a ruling of non-infringement. 
On May 18, 2017, the lower court entered judgment of non-infringement. 
 
   In April 2012, Shire was notified that Mylan had submitted an ANDA under 
the Hatch-Waxman Act seeking permission to market a generic version of 
LIALDA. Within the requisite 45-day period, Shire filed a lawsuit in the 
U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida against Mylan. A 
Markman hearing took place on December 22, 2014. A Markman ruling was 
issued on March 23, 2015. Following a four-day bench trial in September 
2016 in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, the 
court handed down a ruling that Mylan's proposed generic version of 
LIALDA infringes claims 1 and 3 of the Orange Book listed patent for 
LIALDA. In connection with this finding of infringement, the court also 
entered an injunction prohibiting Mylan from making, using, selling, 
offering for sale and/or importing their proposed ANDA product before 
the expiration of the patent (June 8, 2020) and requiring that the 
approval date for their ANDA be on or after the expiration of the 
patent. On June 14, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the Middle 
District of Florida granted Mylan's Motion for Reconsideration and 
entered judgment of non-infringement. Shire filed an appeal on July 7, 
2017. 
 
   In March 2015, Shire was notified that Amneal had submitted an ANDA 
under the Hatch-Waxman Act seeking permission to market a generic 
version of LIALDA. Within the requisite 45 day period, Shire filed a 
lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey 
against Amneal, Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC and Amneal 
Pharmaceuticals Co. India Pvt. Ltd. A Markman hearing took place on July 
25, 2016. A Markman ruling was issued on August 2, 2016. No trial date 
has been set. 
 
   In September 2015, Shire was notified that Lupin Ltd. had submitted an 
ANDA under the Hatch-Waxman Act seeking permission to market a generic 
version of LIALDA. Within the requisite 45 day period, Shire filed a 
lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland against 
Lupin Ltd., Lupin Pharmaceuticals Inc., Lupin Inc. and Lupin Atlantis 
Holdings SA. A Markman hearing originally scheduled to take place on 
November 10, 2016, was cancelled and has not yet been rescheduled. No 
trial date has been set. 
 
   VANCOCIN 
 
   On April 6, 2012, ViroPharma Incorporated ("ViroPharma") received a 
notification that the United States Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") was 
conducting an investigation into whether ViroPharma had engaged in 
unfair methods of competition with respect to VANCOCIN which Shire 
acquired in January 2014. Following the divestiture of VANCOCIN in 
August 2014, Shire retained certain liabilities including any potential 
liabilities related to the VANCOCIN citizen petition. 
 
   On August 3, 2012, and September 8, 2014, ViroPharma and Shire 
respectively received Civil Investigative Demands from the FTC 
requesting additional information related to this matter. Shire has 
fully cooperated with the FTC's investigation. 
 
   On February 7, 2017, the FTC filed a Complaint against Shire alleging 
that ViroPharma engaged in conduct in violation of U.S. antitrust laws 
arising from a citizen petition ViroPharma filed in 2006 related to Food 
& Drug Administration's policy for evaluating bioequivalence for generic 
versions of VANCOCIN. The complaint seeks equitable relief, including an 
injunction and disgorgement. The Group filed a motion to dismiss on 
April 10, 2017. 
 
   At this time, Shire is unable to predict the outcome or duration of this 
case. 
 
   ELAPRASE 
 
   On September 24, 2014, Shire's Brazilian affiliate, Shire Farmaceutica 
Brasil Ltda, was served with a lawsuit brought by the State of Sao Paulo 
and in which the Brazilian Public Attorney's office has intervened 
alleging that Shire is obligated to provide certain medical care 
including ELAPRASE for an indefinite period at no cost to patients who 
participated in ELAPRASE clinical trials in Brazil, and seeking 
recoupment to the Brazilian government for amounts paid on behalf of 
these patients to date, and moral damages associated with these claims. 
 
   On May 6, 2016, the trial court judge ruled on the case and dismissed 
all the claims under the class action, which was appealed. On February 
20, 2017, the Court of Appeals in Sao Paulo issued the final decision on 
merit in favor of Shire and dismissed all the claims under the class 
action. The final decision can be appealed through the Superior Court of 
Justice or through the Supreme Court; however, the likelihood of one of 
those courts accepting the appeal is remote. 
 
   21.          Agreements and Transactions with Baxter 
 
   In connection with Baxalta's separation from Baxter on July 1, 2015, 
Baxalta and Baxter entered into several separation-related agreements 
that provided a framework for Baxalta's relationship with Baxter after 
the separation. These agreements, among others, included a manufacturing 
and supply agreement, a transition services agreement and a tax matters 
agreement. For further details on existing agreements with Baxter, refer 
to Note 28, Agreements and Transactions with Baxter, of Shire's Annual 
Report and Accounts for the year ended December 31, 2016. 
 
   The Group reported revenues associated with the manufacturing and supply 
agreement with Baxter during the three and six months ended June 30, 
2017 of approximately $30.4 million and $70.7 million, respectively, and 
approximately $16.0 million during both the three and six months ended 
June 30, 2016. The Group reported Selling, general and administrative 
expenses associated with the transition services agreement with Baxter 
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 of approximately 
$14.8 million and $33.7 million, respectively, and approximately $8.4 
million during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.  Net 
tax-related indemnification liabilities as of June 30, 2017 associated 
with the tax matters agreement with Baxter are discussed in Note 19, 
Commitments and Contingencies, of these Unaudited Consolidated Financial 
Statements. 
 
   As of June 30, 2017, the Group had total amounts due from or to Baxter 
of $72.5 million reported in Prepaid expenses and other current assets, 
$33.6 million reported in Other non-current assets, $59.2 million 
reported in Other current liabilities and $59.6 million reported in 
Other non-current liabilities. 
 
   22.          Segment Reporting

   23.        Subsequent Events 
 
   As part of the Board's ongoing commitment to optimize Shire's portfolio 
and strategic focus, Shire is assessing strategic options for its 
Neuroscience franchise. These options may include the independent public 
listing of the Neuroscience franchise. Shire intends to complete this 
strategic review by year end. 
 
   On July 18, 2017, Shire entered into a licensing agreement with 
Novimmune S.A. ("Novimmune"). The license grants Shire exclusive 
worldwide rights to develop and commercialize a bi-specific antibody in 
pre-clinical development for the treatment of hemophilia A and 
hemophilia A patients with inhibitors. Under the terms of the agreement, 
Shire will develop, and if approved, commercialize the product. Shire 
made an initial $5.0 million upfront license payment. Novimmune will be 
entitled to receive additional potential milestone payments up to $335.0 
million based on clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones and 
single-digit royalties. 
 
   Independent Review Report to Shire plc 
 
   We have been engaged by Shire plc to review the condensed set of 
financial statements for Shire plc and its subsidiaries (the "Group") in 
the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended June 30, 2017 
which comprises the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements 
of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, 
consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated statements of 
cash flows and related notes 1 to 23. We have read the other information 
contained in the half-yearly financial report and considered whether it 
contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the 
information in the condensed set of financial statements. 
 
   This report is made solely to the group in accordance with International 
Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim 
Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the 
Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board.  Our work has been 
undertaken so that we might state to the group those matters we are 
required to state to it in an independent review report and for no other 
purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or 
assume responsibility to anyone other than the group, for our review 
work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed. 
 
   Directors' responsibilities 
 
   The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been 
approved by, the directors.  The directors are responsible for preparing 
the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure 
Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial 
Conduct Authority. 
 
   As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are 
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in 
the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The condensed set of 
financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has 
been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies the Group 
intends to use in preparing its next financial statements. 
 
   Our responsibility 
 
   Our responsibility is to express to the Group a conclusion on the 
condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial 
report based on our review. 
 
   Scope of review 
 
   We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on 
Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial 
Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued 
by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review 
of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily 
of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and 
applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is 
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with 
International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently 
does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all 
significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, 
we do not express an audit opinion. 
 
   Conclusion 
 
   Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to 
believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the 
half-yearly financial report for the six months ended June 30, 2017 is 
not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. GAAP and 
the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's 
Financial Conduct Authority.
