EPS were $67.2M/ ($0.88) compared to our estimates of $67.6M/($0.26). MDCO sold its hemostasis franchise in February to Mallinckrodt for an initial upfront payment of $174M, which brought the company's cash holding to ~$547M. A busy catalyst calendar lies ahead in 2016, including top-line data for the phase 2 ABP-700, Phase 2 MILANO-PILOT, Phase 3 Carbavance, and Phase 2 ALN-PCSsc trials. We view MDCO's pipeline assets as promising and innovative, but believe the shares are fairly priced. We note that progress on the development (in particular with the PCSK9si trial) or restructuring fronts this year would represent significant upside, including from strategic M&A interest. KEY POINTS The majority of 4Q15 revenues were derived from branded Angiomax sales and generic Angiomax royalties (Sandoz), totaling $18.7M and $29.4M, respectively. The timing of impact on these revenues from new generic bivalirudin entrants is unclear. Excluded from 4Q15 revenues were $18M of Recothrom sales. Total FY15 revenues/adj. EPS were $356M/($2.42) compared to our estimates $357M/($2.61) and consensus $353M/($2.71). Management provided FY2016 revenue guidance of $ M, and $ M for adj. SG&A, and $ M for adj. R&D. We are updating our model accordingly. Sales of "other" products, including launch products Orbactiv and Kengreal, totaled $14.6M in 4Q15, up 54% from $9.5M in 3Q15. Formulary access and the number of ordering accounts has increased for Orbactiv and Kengreal. MDCO will perform an interim analysis of the ORION-1 (90-day, ALN-PCSsc) trial in 3Q16 to help identify the proper dose to be used in ORION-2, which is planned to commence in Additionally, an interim analysis of MILANO PILOT (MDCO-216) will be performed mid-year. It is unclear how much the company will disclose to the Street from these analyses. Upcoming catalysts include: 1) top-line phase 3 TANGO1/2 data for Carbavance in 2H16; 2) top-line data for ORION-1 (PCSK9) in 4Q16; and 3) top-line Phase 2 ABP-700 data in Stock Price Performance Company Description is a pharmaceutical company focused on the identification, development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products to treat critical care patients.

2 MDCO (PERFORM) - NA 5-YEAR PRICE PERFORMANCE INVESTMENT THESIS Source: Bloomberg BASE CASE ASSUMPTION 2015 MDCO MDCO revenues slowly recover from Angiomax hit through newly launched hospital products There is success in one or two of the key pipeline assets (ALN- PCSsc, MDCO-216, Carbavance, ABP-700) 2016 We believe MDCO shares are fairly valued at current levels. While the loss of Angiomax exclusivity significantly affected earnings, the company's broad hospital platform of commercial and development-stage drugs could spur M&A interest and provides revenue that can be leveraged for the development of key pipeline assets. MDCO s decision to explore various restructuring options in order to focus on pipeline assets increases both upside potential and uncertainty. CATALYSTS Mid-2016: Interim analysis of MILANO PILOT study (first 40 patients) 2H16: Top-line TANGO1/2 Phase 3 trial data of Carbavance 4Q16: Top-line data from ORION-1 (ALN-PCSsc) 2016: Start of Phase 2 program of ABP-700 for general anesthesia and sedation UPSIDE SCENARIO Clinical trial success of pipeline assets allows MDCO to raise money to develop and commercialize these products Success in clinical trials of pipeline assets increases value of the pipeline, triggering interest from potential acquirers Differentiated profile of pipeline assets (ALN-PCSsc: longer duration of action; ABP-700: faster kinetics and safety profile) lead to blockbuster sales and gain of market share from standard of care DOWNSIDE SCENARIO Revenues grow slowly, and the company continues to burn cash, affecting its ability to continue development of its key pipeline assets MDCO is not able to restructure or raise the available funds (via divestment of hemostatic assets) needed to increase capital 2 Carlos Solorzano, Ph.D.:
