Teva Statement on European Commission Decision; Company to Appeal

Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd. (NYSE: and TASE: TEVA) is responding to the European Decision following its investigation into the company’s practices regarding COPAXONE® -- the standard-of-care treatment for multiple sclerosis – and announcing its intention to appeal the judgement and fine imposed.

The company is deeply disappointed by this decision and has been cooperating extensively with the EC since 2019. Teva disagrees with the Commission’s legal theories which are legally untested and, Teva believes, not supported by the facts. The company will vigorously defend its position on appeal and is well prepared financially to mount a defense.

Teva conducts its business lawfully and ethically and has been a strong partner to Europe, its patients, economy and healthcare systems. This misguided decision will not distract Teva from its unwavering support for patients living with MS and their families.
