`results and trends for the periods presented. Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, the information

`

`Our Dermatology Specialty Pharmacy
`Strategy
`
`▪ We value our relationships with traditional wholesale and retail pharmacy channels,
`and continue to make our products available through those channels. We have an
`offering through specialty pharmacy for the smaller subset of physicians and patients
`who prefer this channel
`
`▪ Use of specialty pharmacies in dermatology is common
`
`▪ Our specialty pharmacy strategy originated from the Medicis Alternate Fulfillment
`Program
`
`▪ The strategy is designed to improve patients’ access to medications at an affordable
`price, and to help ensure doctors are able to prescribe the medications they believe
`are most appropriate for their patients
`
`▪ Philidor provides reimbursement support services to comply with managed care
`formulary restrictions such as prior-authorizations and step-edits
`
`▪ We have designed our programs to improve patient adherence to medications and
`contribute to improved patient outcomes
`

`
`Page 7 of 90
`
`

`

`Key Elements of the Philidor Program
`
`▪ For Commercially insured patients, Philidor dispenses
`Valeant medications before adjudication of the
`reimbursement may be finalized. Patients get their
`medicines more quickly and Valeant takes the risk for non-
`reimbursement
`
`▪ Affordable cash pay options exist for prescriptions which
`are not reimbursed by commercial insurance
`
`▪ Co-pay subsidies and cash pay options are designed to
`be affordable and are not eligible for prescriptions
`reimbursed in whole or in part by government insurance

`Channel economics
`
` In Q3 2015, Philidor represented 6.8% of total
`Valeant revenue
`
` In Q3 2015, Philidor represented ~7% of Valeant
`EBITA
`
`
` Prescriptions through Philidor are less profitable than
`traditional channels due to lower copay rates, lower
`cash pay rates and more cash pay scripts in Philidor
`than in retail and other channels

`

`

`Specialty Pharmacy - Q&A (3/6)
`
`Question: How are specialty pharmacies compensated?
`
`Answer:

`and patients, and often also receive fees for performing certain additional
`services on behalf of manufacturers such as refill reminders, processing
`copay assistance, or data reporting

`
`Page 14 of 90
`
`

`

`Specialty Pharmacy - Q&A (4/6)
`
`Question: How do specialty pharmacies interact with the PBMs?
`
`Answer:
`▪ Specialty pharmacies, like retail pharmacies, contract with PBMs to
`be included in their network. The ability for PBMs to restrict members
`is dependent on state law
`▪ A number of states have “Any Willing Provider” laws, which ensure
`all pharmacies have access to PBM networks
`▪ PBMs have audit rights with all of their network participants

`2. Valeant’s history with Philidor – Howard Schiller
`
`17
`
`Page 18 of 90
`
`

`

`Philidor History – Pre Option
`
`▪ Pilot program developed pre-acquisition by Philidor for Medicis
`– Original program covered Solodyn and Ziana in a limited
`number of states
`– Services agreement with Philidor signed January 2013
`
`▪ After seeing evidence of success in late 2013 the parties agreed
`to expand the program
`– At the time Philidor was a small start-up
`– Valeant did not invest or lend any money to the Philidor scale-
`up
`
`
`▪ Patients and doctors had strong positive feedback on the
`Philidor experience
`– Led to significant growth over calendar year 2014
`
`
`18
`
`Page 19 of 90
`
`

`

`Why an option to acquire Philidor? (1/2)
`
`▪ In fall of 2014, Philidor was at an inflection point with their business.
`Philidor had experienced significant growth and success with Valeant in
`dermatology, and was now looking to expand into more therapeutic
`offerings with additional partners
`
`
`▪ While we work with a number of specialty pharmacies, we believed that
`a strategic relationship with a specialty pharmacy would allow us to
`provide high service levels to physicians and affordable access to drugs
`for patients
`
`
`▪ We were protective about our successful new platform. If Philidor
`rapidly expanded with additional partners, we might have lost the high
`service levels to patients and doctors that had driven success
`
`
`▪ We wanted to maintain Access program exclusivity in our key
`therapeutic areas
`
`
`
`19
`
`Page 20 of 90
`
`

`

`Why an option to acquire Philidor? (2/2)
`
`▪ Our primary interest was ensuring that Philidor remained focused on
`our business
`
`
`▪ We considered the full spectrum from outright purchase to different
`exclusivity arrangements
`
`
`▪ Ultimately determined the structured option acquisition with the
`oversight rights we negotiated provided security and the flexibility in the
`future to acquire a new growth platform
`
`
`
`20
`
`Page 21 of 90
`
`

`

`Why this option purchase is different
`from typical Valeant transactions
`
`▪ Typical practice in Valeant integrations
`– Existing Valeant manager with operational responsibility for the business
`starting Day 1
`– Work to cut over all financial and IT systems ASAP post close
`– Employees are trained on Valeant policies and programs (e.g., compliance,
`HR)
`▪ Philidor
`– We do not own or control Philidor
`– No “day 1”, Philidor remains on their systems and policies
`– Philidor employees do not report to Valeant, though we:
`▫ maintain regular communication
`▫ have a joint steering committee
`▫ have rights (and have utilized them) to approve key positions (e.g., in-house
`lawyer, chief compliance officer)
`▫ included Philidor in Valeant’s SOX 404 Internal Control Testing and Internal
`Audit program for 2015
`
`21
`
`Page 22 of 90
`
`

`

`Philidor option terms
`
`▪ Upfront: ~$100M
`▪ Valeant has the right to exercise its option for up to 10 years to acquire
`Philidor for $0
`▪ Milestones: Up to $133M
`– $33M of milestones already paid
`
`▪ Philidor is independent, with Valeant having contractual rights including:
`– Joint Steering Committee
`– Right to require hires for certain positions
`– Substantial information rights
`– Covenants respecting Philidor’s compliance with all applicable laws
`
`▪ Philidor is a separate limited liability legal entity
`▪ We believe we do not have legal liability for Philidor
`
`22
`
`Page 23 of 90
`
`

`

`Indemnification from Philidor (1/2)
`
`▪ Valeant received representations, warranties, and covenants as
`to business practices/performance from Philidor
`– Representations that Philidor:
`▫ Was not in violation of any applicable law
`▫ Had all material permits required by law necessary for the
`conduct of its business
`– Covenants that Philidor is operating their business
`▫ In compliance with applicable law
`– Philidor indemnification of Valeant:
`▫ Third party claims relating to the operation of Philidor’s
`business and performance of its duties
`▫ Breach of representations, warranties, and covenants or for
`Philidor’s negligence or willful misconduct
`
`23
`
`Page 24 of 90
`
`

`

`Indemnification from Philidor (2/2)
`
`▪ Under the option agreement, for breaches of
`fundamental representations and certain covenants
`(including compliance with applicable law), Philidor’s
`equity holders’ obligation to indemnify Valeant
`survives indefinitely and is capped at the amount of
`the up-front payment plus all milestones paid or
`achieved (i.e., today that would be at least $133M)
`– Indemnification on other breaches of reps and covenants
`is capped at $25.4 million
`
`
`▪ For indemnification claims by Valeant, Valeant has
`right to set off such amounts against sales-based
`milestones owed to Philidor and/or seek directly from
`Philidor members
`
`24
`
`Page 25 of 90
`
`

`

`Philidor History – Post Option
`
`▪ December 2014 - acquired option to acquire Philidor
`– Rationale to acquire option for Philidor was to keep Philidor
`focused on Valeant’s business and to ensure continued strong
`customer service
`– Gave Valeant a level of contractual influence to benefit our
`business, while providing an option on long term ownership
`▪ Result:
`– High service levels and high customer satisfaction
`– Provided Valeant with another platform for growth
`
`
`
`
`25
`
`Page 26 of 90
`
`

`

`Valeant’s Management Rights
`
`▪ Unless and until Valeant exercises the option to acquire Philidor, Philidor
`remains independent and Valeant has no rights to remove CEO or
`management
`
`▪ Valeant has the right (but not the obligation) to appoint or cause Philidor to
`hire:
`
`– Advisor to the CEO
`
`– Head Compliance Officer
`
`– In-House lawyer
`
`– Head IT officer
`
`– Other employees as reasonably requested
`
`▪ Joint steering committee

`file the UCC-1 liens on Philidor’s members’ equity?
`
`Answer:

`would acquire if we exercised the option

`

`Philidor at a Glance
`
`▪ Pharmacy headquartered in Pennsylvania
`– CEO Andrew Davenport
`– Locations in Hatboro and Horsham, Pennsylvania and
`Phoenix, Arizona
`– Licensed to dispense in 46 states + DC
`– Presently Philidor’s network of pharmacies includes
`pharmacies located in California, Florida, New Jersey,
`South Carolina and Texas
`▫ Valeant has retained and discussed the Philidor
`structure with knowledgeable counsel
`▫ Valeant understands that the structure, including
`Philidor’s use of an unaffiliated acquisition vehicle,
`meets legal requirements
`
`32
`
`Page 33 of 90
`
`

`

`Evolution of the Philidor model
`
`Original strategy:
`• Single hub in
`Pennsylvania
`• Added state
`licenses and
`back-end
`capacity over
`time
`
`Future:
`• Further expand
`network via
`partnering with
`existing
`pharmacies on
`a contract
`basis
`
`Phase 2:
`• Testing different
`expansion models:
`increased network
`by acquiring
`interests in
`additional
`Pharmacies and
`partnering with
`independent
`pharmacies

`Philidor’s network and operations - Q&A
`(1/12)
`
`Question: How does Philidor distribute drugs in states, like
`California, where they are not licensed? Does Philidor contract with
`sub-contractors?
`
`Answer:
`• We understand that Philidor holds non-resident licenses in 45 states, the
`District of Columbia and its resident license in Pennsylvania
`In the few states where it is not directly licensed, like California, Philidor
`does not dispense products to patients. Philidor has agreements with
`affiliated pharmacies that have California licenses, and those pharmacies
`have dispensed products to patients in California

`

`

`Philidor’s network and operations - Q&A
`(3/12)
`
`Question: How do you compensate Philidor?
`
`Answer:
`▪ We pay Philidor a per prescription service fee as
`consideration for the various services provided by Philidor in
`the administration of our alternate fulfillment program.
`However this fee is eliminated in consolidation and we
`recognize all of their operating expenses in our consolidated
`financial statements

`(4/12)
`
`Question: Is the Isolani structure intended to avoid continued

`

`Philidor’s network and operations - Q&A
`(5/12)
`
`Question: Did Valeant have an ownership interest at the time
`that Philidor applied for its non-resident license in California?
`
`Answer:

`Philidor. Valeant acquired its option after Philidor had
`submitted its August 2013 application

`

`Philidor’s network and operations - Q&A
`(6/12)
`Question: Does Philidor auto-refill RXs? If so, when? What is
`the full process?
`
`Answer:
`▪ We understand that Philidor patients are contacted by a
`customer service representative between 24 and 28 days
`after Philidor dispenses the initial fill on a particular
`prescription, to inquire whether the patient would like to
`have the prescription refilled (if there are refills written for
`the prescription). Patients who agree to refill their
`prescription and who are eligible for a $0 co-pay are offered
`auto-refill on all subsequent fills left on their prescription .
`Patients can opt-out from auto-refill at any time

`Revenue Recognition Policies for
`Philidor
`
`▪ Valeant consolidates financials with Philidor and the Philidor
`network, ensuring that revenue recognition and financial
`statement presentation is appropriate
`
`▪ Third party revenue is not recognized when products are
`shipped to Philidor and its network (these shipments are
`recorded as intercompany sales, which are eliminated in
`Valeant’s consolidation process)
`
`▪ Instead, Valeant recognizes revenue only when products are
`dispensed to patients and records this at net realized price

`

`Accounting for Philidor
`
`Before Purchase Option Agreement (1)
`
` All sales to Philidor accounted for as
`Valeant does with any third party
` Sales recognized upon transfer of
`inventory to Philidor
`
`After Purchase Option Agreement (1)
`
` Inventory held at Philidor remains on
`Valeant’s consolidated balance sheet
` Revenues only recognized in Valeant’s
`consolidated income statement when
`products dispensed to the patient
`
`
`
` Consolidating financials of Philidor delays revenue recognition relative
`to third party transactions
` No way to “stuff the channel” of consolidated VIEs, since all
`inventory remains on Valeant’s consolidated balance sheet until
`dispensed to patients

`1. Philidor for itself or affiliates sends an order to Valeant
`
`2. Valeant ships to Philidor for itself or affiliates in response to that
`order
`
`3. Valeant records these shipments as intercompany sales, which
`are eliminated in consolidation, and bills Philidor for itself or
`affiliates at Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC), and records an
`intercompany receivable from Philidor for itself or affiliates
`
`4. Philidor for itself or affiliates records receipt of inventory in the
`appropriate subledger (Philidor for itself or affiliates) and records
`an intercompany payable in the appropriate ledger
`
`5. Philidor for itself or affiliates dispenses prescription to patients
`and records 3rd party revenue (which appears in Valeant’s
`consolidated income statement at the net realized price)

`Philidor or affiliates’ operating accounts
`
`8. Intercompany payable is repaid bi-weekly to Valeant from

`

`Policy on Consolidating VIEs
`
`▪ Valeant evaluates the accounting treatment of Variable Interest Entities
`(VIEs) in accordance with ASC 810
`
`▪ Philidor was considered a VIE prior to the Purchase Option Agreement, but
`since Valeant was not determined to be the primary beneficiary,
`consolidation was not appropriate
`
`▪ A Purchase Option Agreement for Philidor was executed in December 2014:
`
`– Finance and Transactions Committee, Audit and Risk Committee and Full
`Board reviewed the transaction
`
`– The appropriate accounting treatment was determined by management
`and reviewed with the Audit and Risk Committee
`
`▪ After the Purchase Option Agreement was executed, the VIE analysis was
`updated and Valeant was determined to be the primary beneficiary and
`consolidation became a requirement
`
`51

`
`

`

`Financial control approach to Philidor
`
`▪ Philidor is included in Valeant’s SOX 404 Internal Control Testing and
`Internal Audit program for 2015
`– This includes both Business Processes and IT General Controls testing
`– We co-source with a Big 4 Firm that conducts the testing for these
`programs
`
`
`▪ Valeant reviews the financials of Philidor network pharmacies on a regular
`basis
`– Credit and collections team at Valeant, along with Philidor CFO monitors
`payment activity to ensure receipt of bi-weekly payments
`– Financial statements of Philidor network pharmacies are consolidated
`and reviewed monthly by Valeant, including review of accounts
`receivable and inventory balances as well as reconciliation of all
`intercompany balances
`

`
`

`

`Materiality of Philidor for Disclosure
`Purposes
`
`▪ Philidor is not considered material to Valeant’s business for reporting purposes
`– At the time of the Purchase Option Agreement in December, 2014, Philidor YTD
`net sales were $111 million
`– The GAAP requirement for disclosing sales to large customers is 10% of
`revenue; revenue from the smallest customer disclosed in 2014 was $0.9 billion
`– Philidor is no longer a customer for accounting purposes (since its financials are
`consolidated) but if it were, it would still not require disclosure when applying the
`10% threshold
`▪ Valeant has a pre-established internal threshold for specifically disclosing
`transactions in business combination footnotes
`– The purchase of the option to acquire Philidor did not meet this threshold
`– Valeant reviews this threshold (at a minimum annually) with its audit committee
`and external auditors, and makes adjustments as appropriate. This review
`includes benchmarking disclosures of other pharmaceutical companies and
`companies that are similarly acquisitive
`▪ Even if Valeant had acquired Philidor it would not have met the pre-established
`threshold

`

`Disclosures of Philidor, Past and Future
`
`▪ As Philidor was not considered material to Valeant for reporting purposes, it was not
`reported prior to October 2015
`▪ Consolidation of VIEs was disclosed in Valeant’s 2014 10-K in two places
`– Footnote 2 Significant Accounting Policies
`– Footnote 3 Business Combinations
`▪ Philidor was not specifically mentioned as it has not been material to consolidated
`financial statements (1% or less of total assets, 7% or less of consolidated net
`revenues since Q4 2014)
`▪ On our Q3 earnings call Valeant disclosed its relationship with Philidor given the
`October 3rd announced litigation with R&O and investor interest
`– No obligation to disclose this as amounts are not material
`– Materiality of the Philidor arrangement is evaluated quarterly as part of Valeant’s
`disclosure checklist
`▪ We will continue to share financial information on Philidor for the foreseeable future

`recorded when they take ownership of the inventory
