Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
Colin Goddard, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“OSI”), together
with other members of OSI’s management team, plan to present the information reflected in the
slides attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K at OSI’s R&D Analyst Day on
Thursday, December 4, 2008. As previously announced by OSI in its November 24, 2008 press release,
the R&D Analyst Day presentation will be simultaneously webcast on OSI’s website at www.osip.com.
Playback of the webcast presentation will be available on OSI’s website until December 31, 2008.
The information in this Item 7.01 (including Exhibit 99.1) is being “furnished” and shall not
be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be
deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the
Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date of this report, except as shall be expressly
set forth by specific reference in such filing.
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” that do not convey
historical information, but relate to predicted or potential future events, such as statements of
our plans, strategies and intentions. These statements can often be identified by the use of
forward-looking terminology such as “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” or
“anticipate” or similar terminology. All statements other than statements of historical facts
included in this Current Report on Form 8-K are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Except for OSI’s ongoing
obligations to disclose material information under the federal securities laws, OSI undertakes no
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise. In addition to the risks and uncertainties of ordinary
business operations and conditions in the general economy and the markets in which OSI competes,
the forward-looking statements of OSI contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K are also subject
various risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in OSI’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, as amended, and in its
subsequent filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
