`
`)1» After a spin-off of AIIergan's non-pharmaceutical
`
`businesses in 2002, the spotlight is focused on
`
`product growth opportunities in 2003 and beyond.
`
`1» Interestingly, in 2003 we believe Allergan faces
`
`generic risk in two products (Alphagan and
`
`Acular) and the U.S. launch of three products
`
`(Restasis, Acular new formulation, Gatafloxacin).
`
`I» We believe the financial model oflers flexibility
`
`but risks cloud this opportunity in the near term.
`
`1» we rate AGN In-line (2H), and our target of $57
`
`represents a 40% PIE premium to the industry.

`Allergan Pharmaceuticals — February ‘E2. 2003
`
`
`
`luetuumsengnoexg
`
`Allergan has a history of consistent revenue and eamings growth
`
`and in 2002 because a “pure—play” pharmaceutical company. We
`
`believe growth can continue in 2004 with the launch of three new
`
`products in the U.S.: Re-stasis for dry eye, gatafloxacin for ocular
`
`infections, and a new formulation ofAcular for ocular
`
`inflammation. However, Allergan’s 2003 risk (in our view) to
`
`Alphagan generic, Acular generics, the Botox lawsuit, and the
`
`stock’s current premium valuation weigh against our growth
`
`outlook.
`
`Allergan beat our fourth quarter EPS estimate by $0.01.
`
`Allergan reported fourth quarter 2002 EPS of $0.54, vs. our estimate and
`
`consensus of $0.53. Total sales were slightly light, by 2% vs. our forecast, and we
`
`thus do not view the EPS upside as significant.
`
`2003 appears to be an interesting year for Allergan"s pipeline.
`
`In 2003, Allergan expects to launch three products (Restasis for dry eye,
`
`Epinastine for allergies, Gatafloxacin for eye infections); to file potentially
`
`three more (Botox for movement disorders, Tazorac oral for psoriasis, and
`
`combination Lumigan+Timolol for glaucoma); and to gain greater clarity on
`
`the generic risk for two products (Alphagan for glaucoma and Acular for
`inflammation).
`
`Allergan is not riskless.
`
`We believe risks for AGN are related to the patent challenges to Alphagan, the
`
`growth forecast for Botox (use of which we are concemed may prove to be a
`
`fad), and the continued development of the R&D pipeline. Allergan is one of
`
`our globally diversified covered companies, with 30% of sales from outside the
`
`United States, which implies foreign exchange Concerns and lack of third-party
`
`data for product demand outside the United States.
`
`AGN outperformed the specialty pharma sector in 2002.
`
`For calendar 2002, the specialty pharmaceuticals sector was down 39%, the
`
`market (S&P 500) was down 13%, and AGN shares were down 20%. Year to
`
`date 2003, AGN is up 4% vs. the specialty phannaceutical sector, which is up
`9%, and the market, which is down 6%.
`
`We rate Allergan 2H (In-line, High Risk), with a $51 target.
`
`A|lergan’s $57 price target reflects a 40% WE premium on estimated calendar
`
`2003 EPS relative to its peer group of specialty pharmaceutical companies (25x
`
`our estimated calendar 2003 EPS of $2.31).
`
`We rate the specialty pharmaceuticals industry Illlarketweight.
`
`We believe the news flow and pipeline potential may support the specialty
`
`pharmaceutical industry's valuation. We continue to remain selective in our
`
`individual company recommendations and focused on new product
`
`deveiopmentllaunches to drive growth.

`
`Sector Valuation
`
`)- The specialty pharmaceutical sector is currently trading at a 17.0):
`multiple based on forward 2003 earnings estimates. The current
`
`multiple is significantly lower than the five-year average multiple of
`
`29.9): and the ten-year average multiple of 31.21:. We believe this is
`
`more due to general market fears and war concerns than anything
`
`more industry-specific as the sector remains at a premium to the
`
`market (currently at 12% premium vs. the last-ten-year average of a
`
`57% premium).
`
`AGN is currently trading at a 26.4): multiple based on forward 2003
`
`earnings estimates. The current multiple is lower than the five-year
`
`average multiple for Allergan of 32.8x and is slightly higher than the
`
`ten-year average multiple of 24.71:.
`
`AGN is trading at a 53% premium to the sector although the five-
`
`year historical average is a 10°/o premium to the group.
`
`AGN's year-to-date performance has not matched that of the sector,
`
`up 4% versus up 9%, respectively (the S&P 500 is down 6%).
`
`We believe the specialty pharmaceutical stocks that have
`
`outperformed the sector have been driven by new product launches
`
`and pipeline news flow supporting revenuelearnings growth.
`
`We have a Marketweight rating on the specialty pharmaceutical
`
`industry.
`
`As brand companies
`have defined their
`business models, the
`range of multiples has
`contracted.
`
`In Few Valuation Comments
`The brand—focused specialty phannaceuticals sector has experienced quite a bit of
`
`volatility in its absolute forward PIE multiples in the past ten years. ranging from
`
`17x to 52x. The range contracts only slightly, to 18x to 42x, if we reduce our
`
`analysis to just the past five years. We believe this consistently wide range is due to
`
`a variety of conditionsfopportunities that have Caused the companies in our
`
`composite to behave very independently of one another. These factors include the
`
`following:
`
`>- various business models in the sector, ranging from ones with a therapeutic
`
`focus supported by R&D activity to ones that without a therapeutic focus and
`
`with minimal R&D capabilities;
`
`)- difierent maturity levels ofbusiness strategies. including self-marketing of
`
`products (which offers greater self—eontroI of the longer—term corporate destiny);
`
`>-
`
`a wide variety of representation of selfimarketcd products in total revenues in
`
`comparison with historical sources (i.e., generics. drug delivery, and non-
`
`phannaeeuticals);
`

`
`
`Allergan Pharmaceuticals — February 12. 2003
`
`We continue to believe the specialty pharmaceuticals sector can hold its premium to
`
`the market (and even the large-cap pharmaceuticals sector) due to our forecast for
`
`higher comparative rcvenuefeamings growth. In addition, we believe revenues and
`
`earnings are now of greater quality than in the past due to the increasing reliance on
`
`self-marketing and selfldevelopment efforts. The group is rather diverse in many
`
`aspects. We continue to prefer companies with the following attributes:
`
`P earnings growth driven by new productfrevenue growth;
`
`D»
`
`a diversified but consistent revenue base (i.e., more than one product but with
`
`tight end-market focus);
`
`YYYY
`
`late—stage R&D capabilities (phase 3 development capabilities);
`
`medium-stage R&D visibility (early phase 3 and phase 2 programs identified);
`
`buying opportunities for shares at a reasonable valuation; and
`
`a strong, experienced management team.

`Allergan Pharmaceuticals — February 12. 2003
`
`Growth Now, and Growth Beyond
`
`On January 29, 2003, Allergan reported fourth quarter 2002 EPS of
`
`$0.54 (excluding one-time items), $0.01 above our estimate. Total
`
`sales reported were slightly light (by 2%) versus our forecast, and
`
`we thus do not view the EPS upside as significant.
`
`Ailergarfs EPS excluding
`one-time items beat our
`
`estimate by $0.01.
`
`Allergan management outlined its guidance for 2003. While our
`
`sales forecast was in line with guidance, SG&A and gross margins
`
`were guided to lower-than-expected levels, and such revisions
`
`generally drive our estimate changes.
`
`We believe 2003 looks to be an interesting year for Allergan, with
`
`the potential of four U.S. launches (three brand new products), two
`
`European launches, the filing of potentially three more, and generic
`
`risk for two products likely to become reality.
`
`We rate AGN shares 2H (In-line, High Risk) and our price target
`
`remains $57. We have a Marketweight rating on the Specialty
`Pharmaceutical sector.
`
`We believe Allergen
`became a pure-play
`specialty
`phannaceuticais
`company in 2002.
`
`Icompany Description
`Allergan, Inc. is a global specialty pharmaceuticals company that currently has three
`
`core therapeutic focuses: ophthalmology (61 % of 2002 sales), movement disorders
`
`(32% of 2002 sales), and dermatology (7% of 2002 sales). On July 1, 2002, the
`
`company announced a spin—off of its non—pharrr1accutical franchises and became a
`
`purc—play pharmaceutical company. Allergan sells products in more than 100
`countries and receives approximately 30% of corporate revenues from outside the
`
`United States.
`
`In 2002, Allergan reported pharmaceutical revenues of $1 .42]
`
`billion, up 19% year over year.
`
`Iwe Are Here
`Allergan reported fourth quarter EPS of$0.S4 excluding one-time charges, above
`
`our and consensus estimates of $0.53.
`
`It also reported full year results. We tend to
`
`view product sales as the key indicator to a company’s growth strength as
`
`nonoperating one-time items seldom affect product growth. On this front, Allergan
`
`reported total sales just slightly (2%) below our forecast ($328 million versus $383
`
`million). Accordingly, we view the quarter reported as solid, although we are not
`
`overly impressed with the $0.01 of EPS upside.

`QIUOZA
`
`Allergan has an extended history of meeting or beating consensus expectations, but
`
`recently results have been clouded by the reporting comparison post the spin-off of
`
`American Medical Optics (AMO), or non—pharmaceutical business. Because the
`
`spin-off has created a highengrowth, more nimble company, we expect upside
`
`surprises to continue, but Allergan’s strong history of financial discipline makes us
`
`believe the upside surprises are likely to be a penny or two.

`
`IProducts for Today
`Allergan reported total fourth quarter sales of $3'r'8 million, which was 2% below
`
`our forecast of $383 million. Growth in sales were reported by all three distinct
`
`franchises: ophthalmology, which made up 58% of sales; movement disorders,
`
`which consists of Botox and accounted for 38% of total sales; and dermatological
`
`products, which represented 6% of sales.
`
`Botox (neurotoxin for movement disorders)
`
`Sales of Botox were reported at $128.2 million, above our forecast of$l 20 million
`
`for the quarter. While we expect continued growth due to the launch of cosmetic
`
`approval in the U.S., the company also highlighted the potential growth from the
`
`cosmetic approvals outside North America. Specifically, Allergan continues to
`
`expect cosmetic approval in first quarter 2003 in France — which is to serve as the
`
`reference country for the EU approval} launch process. Botox is to have a separate
`
`brand name and price structure from the currently marketed Botox brand in Europe
`
`for therapeutic purposes. Botox has an interesting historical quarterly growth
`
`pattern: first quarter sales typically approximate fourth quarter sales, and second
`
`quarter sales typically exceed the first quarter’s by about $10-$15 million. While
`
`this pattern has held consistent for the last few years, Allergan’s Botox sales mix and
`
`promotional expenditures have not been consistent. For example, in early 2002,
`
`Botox received cosmetic approval in the U.S. but the free publicity as well as
`
`company efforts did not break sales trends. Allergan estimates 40% of Botox sales
`are now for cosmetic uses.
`
`Looking forward to 2003, there are two possible diverging issuesiopportunities:
`
`P Continued internationai launches to support growth — With Evistabel rolling
`
`out in Europe, we believe new users are likely to join the existing therapeutic
`users.
`
`P A lawsuit in the US. could bring adverse publicity — In February, Allergan
`
`announced a lawsuit had been filed by a patient claiming chronic adverse
`
`reaction to use. Given the profile of the product, we believe Allergan‘s claim
`
`that the suit is frivolous. However, we worry the suit filer could seek public
`
`attention that may affect U.S. cosmetic trends.
`
`We view Botox as a critical growth driver of the Allergan model. The company
`
`offered product sales guidance for 2003 of $540-$580 million. We estimate the $40
`
`million variance could represent a $0.19 swing in 2003 EPS (see modeling
`
`sensitivity analysis to follow). We raised our 2003 sales forecast for Botox to $560
`
`million from $520 million, still following historical quarterly growth trends.

`
`Alphagan Line (glaucoma)
`Sales of Alphagan franchise (Alphagan and Aiphagan P) were reported at
`approximately $65 million, relatively in line with our forecast of $62 million.
`However, we are significantiy lowering our 2003 outlook for the franchise, to $206
`
`million from $248 million (1 7''% drop), for a few reasons.
`
`>- Year-over-year growth trends for the franchise in the U.S. have slowed, coming
`
`in at down 1% in fourth quarter 2002 versus up 4% in third quarter 2002. We
`
`believe this is partially due to Allergan’s strong marketing support of its various
`
`prostaglandin products, which are viewed as a first- line therapy in treating
`
`glaucoma, leaving Alphagan in more of a second-line position.
`
`12
`
`
`
`
`
`Allergan Pharmaceuticals — February 12. 2003
`
`D» Allergan intends to shift its marketing resources away from the Alphagan line to
`
`the various new 2003 launches (Restasis, gatifloxacin, Aculat), and this is very
`
`likely to hurt Alphagan’s growth.
`
`)- Finally, we recognize the risk that generic Alphagan emerges in the U.S. in the
`
`course of the next year, as we await a federal Circuit Court of Appeals ruling on
`this issue expected to come in the next few weeks.
`
`We no ionger view the Aiphaganfiranehise as a significant growth driverfor
`
`Ailergan. but at $206 miiiion in 2003 revenues. or I4"o oftoral sales, rhefiranchises’

`
`What is most fascinating to us in 2003 for Al|ergan’s eye care franchise is the
`
`inflection point in segment importance. While we forecast continued growth in total
`
`franchise supported by new product launches as well as strong demographic trends,
`
`the sales contribution from glaucoma, whose revenues grew for several years to
`
`make this area an important one for the company, has probably flattened, in our
`
`view. While we look for the drug eye franchise to become a more significant
`
`growth driver going forward, we are cautious as we may be underestimating the
`
`anti-infective and allergy segment growth in the face of new product launches in
`
`2002. Suddenly, it appears that the Street‘s myopic focus on the glaucoma franchise
`
`for eye care sales growth may need to change.

`
`Tazorac (acne, psoriasis)
`
`Sales of Tazorac were reported at $15 million, significantly below our forecast of
`
`$22 million for the quarter. This is partially due to the launch of Avage in first
`
`quarter 2003 rather than fourth quarter 2002, but we are lowering our 2003 outlook
`significantly for the combined Tazorac and Avage products significantly (by 21%),
`to $88 million from $1 1 1 million, for a few reasons:
`
`)~ Slowing prescription trends for Tazorac in the U.S., which while up 31% year
`
`over year in fourth quarter 2002, slowed from up 42% in third quarter 2002. We
`
`believe this is partially due to the typically expected product launch’growth
`
`pattern, but may also reflect the economic sensitivity of the market and the
`
`continued strong competition overall.
`
`Iv Avage to treat facial fine wrinkling, mottled hypo- and hyperpigmentation
`
`(blotchy skin discoloration), and benign facial lentigines (flat patches of skin
`
`discoloration) was approved in October 2002. Some stocking began in early
`
`2002, but the sales force promotion has yet to occur.
`
`We view the Tazorac and Avage products as growth opportunities for Aiiergon, with
`
`aforecast of$88 miiiior: in 2003, which represents 6% of rotor! product sales — in
`
`our View not quite yet a criricaifactor to our modeiirig.
