Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 19, 2009, OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OSI) issued a press release regarding its
financial results for the year ended December 31, 2008. A copy of this release is attached hereto
as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
As previously announced, OSI is holding a conference call, open to the public, to discuss
these results at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on February 19, 2009. To access the live webcast or the
archive via the Internet, log on to www.osip.com. Alternatively, please call 1-877-852-6578 (U.S.)
or 1-719-325-4826 (International) to listen to the call. The conference ID number for the live call
is 2105141. Telephone replay is available approximately two hours
after the call through March 5, 2009. To access the replay, please call
1-888-203-1112 (U.S.) or 1-719-457-0820 (international). The conference ID number is 2105141. The
slides from the presentation, including the financial and statistical information contained
therein, will be available via the Investor Relations section of OSIs website for a twelve month
period following the webcast.
The attached press release contains, and the slides and conference call will contain, both
generally accepted accounting principals, or GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures for the quarter
and year ended December 31, 2008. The non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted net income from
continuing operations and adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations, each of which
have directly comparable GAAP financial measures. OSI has provided these non-GAAP financial
measures to adjust for the impact of the following significant non-cash accounting items:
|
|
|
a $337 million non-cash gain in the fourth quarter of 2008, based primarily on OSIs
expected utilization of its net operating loss carryforwards, or NOLs;
|
|
|
|
|
the adoption of FASB Staff Position APB 14-1 Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement), which will require OSI to recognize additional non-cash interest expense
related to its 2% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025 and 3% Convertible Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2038, or the Notes. APB 14-1 will be first effective for OSIs
financial statements issued for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 and will also apply
retrospectively for all prior periods for which the Notes were outstanding; and
|
|
|
|
|
the increase in the income tax expense that OSI will record on its financial statements
for the 2009 fiscal year to a 40% effective rate, even though OSI estimates that it will
continue to pay cash taxes at 2% to 4% alternative minimum tax rates.
|
OSI reports its financial results in compliance with GAAP, but believes that the inclusion of
these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with (i) additional, meaningful comparisons of
current results to prior periods results by excluding the impact of significant non-cash items
that OSI does not believe reflect its fundamental business performance and (ii) financial measures
that OSI uses in the management of its business. OSI has adjusted for the impact of the $337
million non-cash gain related to its NOLs as it will not be repeated in 2009 in this magnitude, if
at all, and therefore does not reflect OSIs expected profitability for future periods. OSI has
also adjusted for the impact of the adoption of APB 14-1 and the increase in its
effective tax rate for the 2009 fiscal year, as OSIs management believes that this non-cash
expense could distort OSIs fundamental business performance for future periods. Management uses
these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including
the allocation of resources as well as the planning and forecasting of future periods and believes
that these results are useful to others in analyzing operating performance and trends of OSI.
The
non-GAAP financial measures included in the press release attached
hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and in the slides and conference call,
have been reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures as required under the rules and
regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission. These non-GAAP measures have limitations,
however, because they do not include all items of income and expense that affect OSI, and therefore
should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measurements required by GAAP.
The information in this Item 2.02 (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.
