Independent Auditor’s Report
 
To the Board of Directors
Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC
New York, New York
 
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC, which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, changes in members’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
 
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
 
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
 
Auditor’s Responsibility
 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
 
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
 
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
 
Opinion
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
1. Description of the Company
 
Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC (the “Company”) was initially formed on May 5, 2011 as a limited liability company in the state of California and operations were initiated during 2011. Prior to this date, the Company operated as Manchester Pharmaceuticals, Inc. One of the members of the newly formed company was the shareholder of Manchester Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and as part of the formation of the new company, this member contributed cash as well as the internally developed product asset which was recorded at the carry-over basis. The Company is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the identification, development, FDA approval and commercialization of new therapeutic modalities to address the special needs of patients with ultra-rare diseases. The Company’s primary products are Chenodal® (chenodiol tablets) and Vecamyl™ (mecamylamine tablets).
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed Federally-insured limits. The Company has had interest-bearing cash accounts that are not insured. The Company has never experienced losses related to these balances. All of the Company’s noninterest-bearing cash balances were fully insured at December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Accounts Receivable, Net
 
Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales discounts. The Company’s assessment of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on several factors, including the overall creditworthiness of the customer, existing economic conditions, and the amount and age of past due accounts. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, no allowance for doubtful accounts was considered necessary.
 
Prepaid and Other Current Assets
 
Prepaid and other current assets include prepaid insurance expenses and prepaid facility fees. The Company recognizes these assets into expense over the period of the respective term of the arrangement.

Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC
 
Notes to Financial Statements
 
Inventories
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or estimated realizable value. The Company determines the cost of inventory using the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. The Company periodically analyzes its inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire prior to expected sale or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated realizable value, and writes down such inventories as appropriate. In addition, the Company’s products are subject to strict quality control and monitoring which the Company’s manufacturers perform throughout its manufacturing process. Management has evaluated the current level of inventory considering historical trends and other factors and, based on its evaluation, no allowance for obsolete inventory was considered necessary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. The cost of maintenance and repairs, which are not significant improvements, are expensed when incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company is a limited liability company and, therefore, is not a tax-paying entity for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, a provision for federal income taxes has not been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. Partnership income or losses are reflected in the members’ individual or corporate income tax returns in accordance with their ownership percentages.
 
The Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740-10, “Income Taxes”. This topic prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statements recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate audit settlement. Interest and penalties related to income tax matters are included in selling, general and administrative costs.
 
The Company files income tax returns on a calendar basis and its returns for 2011, 2012, and 2013 (upon filing) are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payables approximated fair value due to the short maturity of these financial instruments.

Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC
 
Notes to Financial Statements
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Product sales consist of U.S. sales of Chenodal and Vecamyl. Revenue from product sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title to product and associated risk of loss have passed to the customer, the price is fixed or determinable, collection from the customer is reasonably assured, the Company has no further performance obligations, and returns can be reasonably estimated. The Company records revenue from product sales upon delivery to its customer. The Company sells Chenodal and Vecamyl in the United States to a specialty pharmacy. Under this distribution model, the specialty pharmacy distributor takes title of the inventory FOB shipping point and sells directly to patients.
 
Government Rebates and Chargebacks
 
The Company estimates reductions to product sales for Medicaid programs, and for certain other qualifying federal and state government programs. Based upon the Company's contracts with government agencies, statutorily-defined discounts applicable to government-funded programs, historical experience, and estimated payer mix, the Company estimates and records an allowance for rebates and chargebacks. The Company's liability for Medicaid rebates consists of estimates for claims that a state will make for a current quarter, claims for prior quarters that have been estimated for which an invoice has not been received, and invoices received for claims from prior quarters that have not been paid. The Company's customer charges the Company for the difference between what they pay for the products and the ultimate selling price.
 
Distribution-Related Fees
 
The Company has written contracts with its customer that include terms for distribution-related fees. The Company estimates and records distribution and related fees due to its customer based on gross sales. These fees are recorded as part of cost of sales in the Company’s statements of operations.
 
Prompt Pay Discounts
 
The Company offers discounts to its customer for prompt payments. The Company estimates these discounts based on customer terms and historical experience, and expects that its customer will always take advantage of this discount. Therefore, the Company accrues 100% of the prompt pay discount that is based on the gross amount of each invoice, at the time of sale.
 
Product Returns
 
Consistent with industry practice, the Company offers its customer a limited right to return product purchased directly from the Company, which is principally based upon the product's expiration date. Product returned is generally not resalable given the nature of the Company's products and method of administration. The Company develops estimates for product returns based upon historical experience, inventory levels in the distribution channel, shelf life of the product, and other relevant factors. The Company monitors product supply levels in the distribution channel, as well as sales by its customer to patients using product-specific data provided by its customer. If necessary, the Company's estimates of product returns may be adjusted in the future based on actual returns experience, known or expected changes in the marketplace, or other factors.

3. Significant Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed federally-insured limits. The Company has never experienced any losses related to these balances. Beginning January 1, 2013, all noninterest-bearing cash balances were insured up to $250,000 per depositor at each financial institution. The Company extends credit to its specialty distributor, which accounts for 100% of its gross product sales and accounts receivable.
 
4. Inventory
 
The Company states inventories at the lower of cost or market. Inventories, net of allowances, at December 31, 2013 and 2012 consist of the following:

Purchase and Sale Commitments and Contingencies
 
In October 2009, the Company entered into a services agreement (the “Chenodyl Services Agreement”) with the specialty distributor for a term of five years ending October 2014. Under the terms of the Chenodyl Services Agreement, the specialty distributor is the exclusive distributor of Chenodyl.

In November 2009, the Company entered into a license and manufacturing agreement (the “Chenodyl Manufacturing Agreement”) for a term of five years beginning on the product launch date with a contract manufacturer (the “contract manufacturer”) to manufacture Chenodyl. In addition to production cost the Company is required to pay the contract manufacturer $15,000 per quarter when sales exceed $100,000 for manufacturing availability.
 
In January 2013, the Company entered into a services agreement (the “Vecamyl Services Agreement”) with the specialty distributor for a term of five years beginning on the launch date of the product.

Contingencies
 
The Company operates in a highly regulated industry and is subject to the regulatory authority of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”). In the normal course of business, the Company may be party to litigation from time to time. The Company is not involved in any litigation as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
 
6. Income Taxes
 
The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions. The Company continues to remain subject to examination by U.S. federal authorities for the years 2010 through 2013 and for various state authorities for the years 2010 through 2013. In accordance with the accounting under ASC 740-10, the Company has recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to certain tax positions taken on its various income tax returns. If recognized, the entire amount of these unrecognized tax benefits would impact the effective tax rate that is reported in future periods. Interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities are included as a component of general and administrative expense in the accompanying statements of operations.

The allocation of the purchase price to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective fair values, requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgments. The more significant assumptions included determining the timing of projected revenues, estimating future cash flows, and developing appropriate discount rates. Preliminary estimates have been used, such estimates are subject to change during the measurement period as such estimates, analysis and valuations are finalized.

The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of operations is based on the separate historical statement of operations of Retrophin and Manchester after giving effect to the acquisition and related financing and the assumptions and preliminary pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of operations. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 is presented as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2013 and combines the historical results of Retrophin and Manchester for year ended December 31, 2013. The historical financial results have been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are i) directly attributable to the acquisition, ii) factually supportable, and iii) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results of the companies.

The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of operations is provided for informational purposes only. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of operations is not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the results that would have been achieved had the acquisition been completed as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future and should not be taken as representative of future consolidated results of operations or financial condition of the Company. Furthermore, no effect has been given in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of operations for synergistic benefits and potential cost savings, if any, that may be realized through the combination of the two companies or the costs that may be incurred in integrating their operations.

Note 1 – Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

On March 26, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding membership interests of Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“Manchester”). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid $29.5 million upon consummation of the transaction, of which $3.2 million was paid by Retrophin Therapeutics International LLC, a newly formed indirect wholly owned subsidiary, for rights of product sales outside of the United States. The Company entered into a noninterest-bearing promissory note with Manchester principals for $33 million which was discounted to $31.3 million to be paid in three equal installments of $11 million within three, six, and nine months after closing. In addition, the Company agreed to make contractual payments to the former members of Manchester based on 10% of net sales of the products Chenodal and Vecamyl. Additional contingent payments will be made based on 5% of net sales from new products derived from the existing products. Contingent consideration will be revalued at each reporting period and any change in valuation will be recorded in the Company’s statement of operations.
 
 
 

 
 
The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, with the excess purchase price over the fair market value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed allocated to goodwill. Based on the preliminary purchase price allocation, the purchase price of $73.23 million has resulted in goodwill of $1.04 million and is primarily attributed to the synergies expected to arise after the acquisition. The $1.04 million of goodwill resulting from the acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes.

The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based upon a preliminary valuation and the Company’s estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period. Critical estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include but are not limited to future expected cash flows from customer relationships and developed technology, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.

The purchase included $72 million of intangible assets with definite lives related to product rights, trade names, and customer relationships with values of $71.4 million, $0.2 million, and $0.4 million, respectively. The useful lives related to the acquired product rights, trade names, and customer relationships are expected to be approximately 16, 1 and 10 years, respectively. Under the terms of the agreement, the sellers agreed to indemnify the Company for uncertain tax liabilities, any breach of any representation or warranty the sellers made to the purchaser, failure of the sellers to perform any covenants or obligations made to the purchaser, and third party claims relating to the operation of the Company and events occurring prior to the Closing Date. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has recorded an indemnification asset with a corresponding liability in the amount of $1.5 million related to uncertain tax liabilities.
