For example, all statements we make relating to our estimated and projected costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results, our plans and objectives for future operations, growth or initiatives, strategies, our product pipeline and anticipated product approvals or the expected outcome or impact of pending or threatened litigation are forward-looking statements. In addition, this report contains forward-looking statements regarding the adequacy of our current cash balances to fund our ongoing operations; our utilization of our net operating loss carryforwards; our ability to realize the expected benefits from our acquisition of and investment in our China subsidiary; and the additional investments required to be made in our China subsidiary to achieve its manufacturing potential.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and the cautionary statements set forth below and those contained in Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors,” Item 7 under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by our forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to:

• we rely on our business partners for the manufacture of substantially all of our products, and if our business partners fail to supply us with high-quality active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) or finished products in the quantities we require on a timely basis, sales of our products could be delayed or prevented, our revenues and margins could decline, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations;

• if we or any of our business partners are unable to comply with the quality and regulatory standards applicable to pharmaceutical drug manufacturers, or if approvals of pending applications are delayed as a result of quality or regulatory compliance concerns or merely backlogs at the US Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), we may be unable to meet the demand for our products, may lose potential revenues and our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially adversely effected;

• changes in the regulations, enforcement procedures or regulatory policies established by the FDA and other regulatory agencies are expected to increase the costs and time of development of our products and could delay or prevent sales of our products and our revenues could decline and our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially adversely effected;

• three of our products, heparin, levofloxacin in a premix bag, and zoledronic acid vials, each of which is supplied to us by a single vendor, and two of which (heparin and zoledronic acid vials) are manufactured by a single supplier, represent a significant portion of our net revenues and, if the volume or pricing of any of these products declines, or we are unable to satisfy forecasted demand for any of these products, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations;

• we participate in highly competitive markets, dominated by a few large competitors, and if we are unable to compete successfully, our revenues could decline and our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially adversely effected;

1

• we rely on a limited number of pharmaceutical wholesalers to distribute our products;

• we depend to a significant degree upon our key personnel, the loss of whom could adversely effect our operations;

• we may be exposed to product liability claims that could cause us to incur significant costs or cease selling some of our products;

• our products may infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties, and we may incur substantial liabilities and may be unable to commercialize products in a profitable manner or at all;

• our business could suffer if reimbursement by government-sponsored or private sector insurance programs for our current or future products is reduced or modified;

• we are subject to risks associated with managing our international network of collaborations, which include business partners and other suppliers of components, API and finished products located throughout the world;

• we may never realize the expected benefits from our manufacturing facility in China and it will require substantial capital resources to reach its manufacturing potential and be profitable; and

• we may seek to engage in strategic transactions, including the acquisition of products or businesses, that could have a variety of negative consequences, and we may not realize the intended benefits of such transactions.

We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our work in preparing, reviewing and evaluating our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, it is impossible for us to anticipate or accurately calculate the impact of all factors that could affect our actual results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, include, but are not limited to, those disclosed under the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this report. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this report in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

We cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation and do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.

PART I

Item 1. Business.

General

We are a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing, sourcing and marketing injectable pharmaceutical products, which we sell primarily in the United States of America through our highly experienced sales and marketing team. Initially founded in 2006 as Sagent Holding Co., a Cayman Islands company, we reincorporated as Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation, in connection with our initial public offering, on April 26, 2011.

With a primary focus on generic injectable pharmaceuticals, which provide customers a lower-cost alternative to branded products when applicable patents have expired or been declared invalid, or when the products are determined not to infringe the patents of others, we offer our customers a broad range of products across anti-infective, oncolytic and critical care indications in a variety of presentations, including single- and multi-dose vials and ready-to-use pre-filled syringes and premix bags. We generally seek to develop injectable products where the form or packaging of the product can be enhanced to improve delivery, product safety or end-user convenience. Our management team includes industry veterans who have served critical functions at other injectable pharmaceutical companies and key customer groups and have long-standing relationships with customers, regulatory agencies, and suppliers. We have rapidly established a growing and diverse product portfolio and product pipeline as a result of our innovative business model. Our model combines an extensive network of international development, sourcing and manufacturing collaborations with our proven and experienced U.S.-based regulatory, quality assurance, business development, project management, and sales and marketing teams.

Products

Since our inception, we have focused on developing a broad product portfolio of injectable pharmaceuticals. As of December 31, 2013, our product portfolio has grown to a total of 53 products which can be classified into the following three product categories: anti-infective, oncology and critical care. Our anti-infective products assist in the treatment of various infections and related symptoms, our oncology products are used in the treatment of cancer and cancer-related medical problems, and our critical care products are used in a variety of critical care applications and include anesthetics, cardiac medications, steroidal products and sedatives. The table below presents the percentage of our total net revenue attributed to each product category for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.

	Percentage of Net Revenue
Product category	For the year ended December 31,
	2013			2012			2011
Anti-infective products		37	%		45	%		42	%
Oncology products		36	%		16	%		22	%
Critical care products		27	%		39	%		36	%
Total		100	%		100	%		100	%

Within our anti-infective product category, cefepime accounted for approximately 13% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011, and levofloxacin accounted for approximately 13% and 14% of our net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Within our critical care product category, our heparin products accounted for approximately 18%, 23% and 26% of our net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Within our oncology category, our zoledronic acid products accounted for approximately 15% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013. No other products accounted for more than 10% of our net revenue in any of the periods presented in the preceding table. We

3

expect that our heparin, levofloxacin and zoledronic acid products will continue to represent a significant portion of our net revenue for the foreseeable future, however, we expect these percentages to decline going forward with the launch of new products.

Anti-Infective Products

Our key anti-infective products include:

Cefepime. Cefepime is a fourth-generation cephalosporin, an antibiotic used to treat a variety of infections, including infections of the urinary tract, skin and skin structure, as well as moderate to severe pneumonia, complicated intra-abdominal infections, and as empiric therapy for febrile neutropenic patients. Cefepime is the generic equivalent of Elan Corporation, plc’s MAXIPIME^®. We launched cefepime for injection in April 2008 upon the expiration of the innovator patents. We are currently one of six competitors in the market.

Levofloxacin. Levofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibacterial indicated in adults 18 years of age or older with infections caused by designated, susceptible bacteria including: nosocomial and community acquired pneumonia, sinusitis, chronic bronchitis, skin and skin structure infections, prostatitis, urinary tract infection and pyelonephritis. Levofloxacin is the generic equivalent of Johnson & Johnson’s Levaquin^®. In July 2011, we were the first company to launch the generic form of levofloxacin in three ready-to-use premix bag strengths following patent expiry in June 2011, and we launched the generic form of levofloxacin in two vial presentations in March 2012. We are currently one of four generic competitors offering a premix bag. Our levofloxacin products accounted for approximately 13% and 14% of our net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Oncology Products

Our key oncology products include:

Docetaxel. Docetaxel is an antineoplastic agent used on its own to treat advanced or metastatic breast cancer after chemotherapy failure, or in connection with other agents in the treatment of breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, gastric adenocarcinoma, advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck cancer. Docetaxel is the generic equivalent of Sanofi-Aventis’ Taxotere^®. We launched Docetaxel in July 2013. We are currently one of seven competitors in the market.

Leucovorin Calcium. Leucovorin Calcium is a folic acid derivative used to prevent harmful effects of methotrexate when methotrexate is used to treat certain types of cancer. Leucovorin Calcium is also used to treat people who have accidentally received an overdose of methotrexate or similar medications. We launched Leucovorin Calcium in October 2012 and are currently one of four competitors in the market.

Zoledronic Acid. Zoledronic Acid is a bisphosphonate given intravenously to prevent skeletal fractures in patients with cancers such as multiple myeloma and prostate cancer, as well as for treating osteoporosis. Zoledronic Acid 4mg is the generic equivalent of Novartis’ Zometa^®, and Zoledronic Acid 5mg is the generic equivalent of Novartis’ Reclast^®. We launched zoledronic acid at market formation in a 4mg vial presentation in March 2013, a 4mg per 100mL premix bag presentation in August 2013, and a 5mg per 100mL premix bag presentation in October 2013. We are currently one of six generic competitors offering a 4mg presentation, and one of four generic competitors offering a 5mg presentation. Our zoledronic acid products accounted for approximately 15% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Critical Care Products

Our key critical care products include:

Heparin. Heparin is an anticoagulant used to prevent and treat blood clotting, especially during and after surgery and dialysis. In July 2010, we launched nine different presentations of heparin sodium injection in latex-free vials, including 1,000 USP units per mL, 10,000 USP units per 10 mL, 30,000 USP units per 30 mL, 10,000 USP units per mL, 40,000 USP units per 4 mL, 5,000 USP units per mL, 50,000 USP units per 10 mL, 2,000 USP

4

units per 2 mL and 20,000 USP units per mL. We are currently one of six suppliers of heparin finished product in the U.S. market. Our heparin products accounted for approximately 18%, 23% and 26% of our net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Sales and Marketing

Our sales and marketing team was comprised of 38 members as of December 31, 2013, including 26 seasoned sales representatives. Our nationwide sales force is comprised of representatives that typically have significant injectable pharmaceutical sales experience in their respective geographic regions. Collectively our sales force has an average of approximately 25 years of experience. We believe that our target markets are highly concentrated and can be penetrated effectively by our dedicated and experienced sales team with respect to both our existing and new products.

Our marketing efforts include a focus on enhanced delivery systems. We provide our products in a variety of convenient presentations, including ready-to-use pre-filled syringes and premix bags, eliminating unnecessary steps in the administration of our products to patients. All of our products are packaged and labeled using PreventIV Measures, our comprehensive, user-driven and patient-centered approach designed to improve patient safety by helping to prevent errors in the administration and delivery of medication to patients through the use of distinctive color coding and easy-to-read labels.

We market our products to group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”), specialty distributors and a diverse group of end-user customers. We have extensive experience contracting with, marketing to and servicing members of the major GPOs in the U.S. We currently derive, and expect to continue to derive, a large percentage of our revenue from end-user customers that are members of a small number of GPOs. For example, the five largest U.S. GPOs, AmeriNet, Inc. (“AmeriNet”), HealthTrust Purchasing Group (“HPG”), MedAssets Inc. (“MedAssets”), Novation, LLC (“Novation”), and Premier, Inc. (“Premier”) represented end-user customers that collectively accounted for approximately 39%, 33% and 30% of our net contract revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We have pricing agreements for specified products with the major GPOs in the U.S., including AmeriNet, HPG, MedAssets, Novation and Premier. The scope of products included in these agreements varies by GPO. Our strategy is to have substantially all of our products covered under these agreements as we launch new products and these agreements come up for renewal. These agreements are typically multi-year in duration, but most of them may be terminated by either party with 60 or 90 day notice.

Customers

As is typical in the pharmaceutical industry, we distribute our products primarily through pharmaceutical wholesalers and, to a lesser extent, specialty distributors that focus on particular therapeutic product categories, for use by a wide variety of end-users, including U.S. hospitals, integrated delivery networks and alternative site facilities. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the products we sold through our three largest wholesalers, AmerisourceBergen Corp. (“Amerisource”), Cardinal Health Inc. (“Cardinal Health”) and McKesson Corp. (“McKesson”), accounted for approximately 36%, 25% and 24%, respectively, of our net revenue.

As end-users have multiple channels to access our products, we believe that we are not dependent on any single GPO, wholesaler or distributor for the distribution or sale of our products, although sales made to customers that contract through Premier accounted for approximately 19%, 15% and 14% of our net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 respectively. No other single end-user customer or group of affiliated end-user customers accounted for more than 10% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Product Distribution

Like many other pharmaceutical companies, we utilize an outside third-party logistics contractor to distribute our products. Since May 2007, our third-party logistics provider has handled all aspects of our product logistics efforts and related order to cash processes. Our products are distributed through a 450,000 square foot facility located in Memphis, Tennessee. Under our agreement with our third-party logistics provider, we maintain

5

ownership of our finished products until sale to our customers. Our contract with our third-party logistics provider is scheduled to expire in December 2015, subject to automatic annual extensions unless either party elects not to extend the agreement by notifying the other party at least 90 days prior to expiration of the initial term or the applicable renewal term.

Seasonality

There are no significant seasonal aspects to our consolidated net sales.

Competition

Our industry is highly competitive and our principal competitors include large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and generic drug companies. Our principal competitors include Fresenius Kabi (“Fresenius”), a division of Fresenius SE, Hospira, Inc. (“Hospira”), Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”), Sandoz International GmbH (“Sandoz”), a division of Novartis AG, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”) and West-Ward Pharmaceutical Corp (“West-Ward”), a subsidiary of Hikma PLC. In most cases, these competitors have access to greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than we do. As a result, they may be able to devote more resources to the development, manufacture, marketing and sale of products, receive a greater share of the capacity from API suppliers and finished product manufacturers, obtain more support from independent distributors, initiate or withstand substantial price competition or more readily take advantage of acquisition or other growth opportunities. We believe that the key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of our current products and any future products that we may develop are price, reliability of supply, quality and enhanced product features.

Revenue and gross profit derived from sales of generic pharmaceutical products tend to follow a pattern based in large part on regulatory and competitive factors. As patents for branded products and related exclusivity periods expire or are ruled invalid, the first generic pharmaceutical manufacturer to receive regulatory approval for a generic version of the reference product is generally able to achieve significant market penetration and higher margins on that product. As competing generic manufacturers receive regulatory approval and begin to market this product, market share, revenue and gross profit typically decline for the original generic entrant. As more competitors enter a specific generic market, the average selling price per unit dose of the particular product typically declines for all competitors. The level of market share, revenue and gross profit attributable to a particular generic pharmaceutical product is significantly influenced by the number of competitors in that product’s market and the timing of that product’s regulatory approval and launch in relation to competing approvals and launches. We intend to continue to develop and introduce new products in a timely and cost-effective manner, identify niche products with significant barriers to entry and develop products with enhanced features or other competitive advantages in order to maintain and grow our revenue and gross margins. In addition, we may challenge proprietary product patents to seek first-to-market rights.

Intellectual Property

As a specialty and generic pharmaceutical company, we have limited intellectual property surrounding our generic injectable products. However, we are developing specialized devices, systems and branding strategies that we aggressively seek to protect through trade secrets, unpatented proprietary know-how, continuing technological innovation and traditional intellectual property protection through trademarks, copyrights and patents to preserve our competitive position. In addition, we seek copyright protection of our packaging and labels. Our current trademarks include “Sagent Pharmaceuticals,” “Sagent,” “Injectables Excellence,” “Discover Injectables Excellence” and “PreventIV Measures.”

Product Development

We maintain an active product development program. Our new product pipeline can generally be classified into two categories: (i) new products for which we have submitted or acquired Abbreviated New Drug Applications (“ANDAs”) that are filed and under review by the FDA; and (ii) new products for which we have begun initial

6

development activities such as sourcing of API and finished products and preparing the necessary ANDAs. As of December 31, 2013, our new product pipeline included: (i) 37 products represented by 62 ANDAs that we had filed, or licensed rights to, and were under review by the FDA, and two products represented by seven ANDAs that the FDA recently approved and are pending commercial launch; and (ii) approximately 24 additional products under initial development.

Our 62 ANDAs under review by the FDA as of December 31, 2013 have been on file for an average of approximately 33 months, with 12 of them being on file for less than 12 months, 12 of them being on file for between 12 and 24 months and 38 of them being on file for longer than 24 months.

Our product development activities also include expanding our product portfolio by adding new products through in-licensing and similar arrangements with manufacturers, virtual pharmaceutical development companies, and others that seek to utilize our U.S. sales and marketing expertise. We believe we provide our business partners with significant value under these arrangements by eliminating their need to develop and maintain a U.S.-focused sales and marketing organization. As of December 31, 2013, we marketed 31 of our 53 products under these types of in-licensing arrangements, and we intend to continue to expand our product portfolio in a cost-effective manner through these types of arrangements.

We generally own or license the rights to ANDAs for the products that we market and sell, which is determined based on the scope of services provided to us by a particular business partner. For example, we typically license the rights to ANDAs under collaborations in which the supplier only provides us with manufacturing services and typically own the ANDAs under collaborations in which the supplier also provides us with development services. When possible, we manage the regulatory submission of ANDAs for products developed in collaboration with our partners. We also assist our partners in developing ANDAs and will often lead FDA interactions post submission.

The goal of our product development activities is to select opportunities, develop finished products, complete and submit regulatory submissions and obtain regulatory approvals allowing product commercialization. Our product development efforts are customer focused and use our strong understanding of market needs from our long-term customer relationships to drive product selection. We now have the capability, through our SCP subsidiary, to develop and manufacture products. Once we identify a new product for development, we determine whether to perform the development and manufacturing at SCP or through one of our existing or new business relationships and secure API sourcing. We also select new products for development based on our ability to expand our existing collaborations to cover additional products that are currently manufactured or being developed by our business partners. We have made, and will continue to make, substantial investment in product development. Product development costs for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $20.3 million.

We utilize an in-house project management team of eight employees, three of whom have Ph.Ds and two of whom are located in China and India, to manage and coordinate our product development activities with our business partners. We also have 14 employees in China focused on product development activities at our wholly-owned manufacturing facility. Our experienced project management team has expertise in areas such as pharmaceutical formulation, analytical chemistry and drug delivery and experience working with our business partners. Actual development activities occur in the laboratories and other facilities of our business partners as well as at our manufacturing facility in Chengdu, China, and will expand to include our newly opened China National Research Center during 2014.

Our Collaboration Network

Overview

We have developed an international network of collaborations that provides us with extensive and diverse capabilities in the areas of new product development, API sourcing, finished product manufacturing and other business development opportunities. As of December 31, 2013, we had 46 business partners worldwide, including 14 in Europe, 12 in the Americas, ten in China and Taiwan, eight in India, one in the Middle East, and one in Australia.

7

In general, our business partners provide us with product development services, API or finished product manufacturing or a combination of the three with respect to one or more of our products. We typically enter into long-term agreements with our business partners. The specific terms of these agreements vary in a number of respects, including the scope of services being provided to us by the partner and the nature of the pricing structure. In general, we believe our agreements contain a degree of flexibility to ensure that both we and our partners can achieve attractive financial returns depending on changes in market conditions and the competitive landscape for specific products. Our most common types of collaborations are manufacture and supply, development, licensing or marketing agreements. The general terms of these types of agreements are summarized below.

Manufacture and Supply Agreements. Our manufacture and supply agreements typically consist of the following elements:

• the supplier agrees to manufacture and supply us with our finished product requirements, typically under its ANDA;

• we generally obtain the exclusive right to sell, market and distribute these products in the U.S., with, in some cases, such exclusivity subject to our obtaining and maintaining a specified market share;

• in the case of an exclusive agreement, we are required to obtain all of our requirements from the supplier;

• the term of the agreement is typically seven years, varying from three to eight years from the date of product launch, and thereafter automatically renews for periods of one or two years unless either party provides prior notice of termination;

• we agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to market the products, consistent with our usual methods of commercializing, marketing and selling other pharmaceutical products;

• we pay a specified transfer price for each unit of each product;

• the supplier has the right to change the transfer price to reflect actual changes in the costs of its raw materials, packaging, storage or regulatory compliance, from time to time;

• we and the supplier agree to discuss reductions in the transfer price due to changes in market conditions as may be required to keep the product competitively priced in the U.S. market;

• the terms may include our payment of a percentage of the net profit from sales of products covered by the agreement; and

• termination may generally be initiated by: (i) either party upon the uncured breach of a material provision of the agreement by the other party; (ii) either party if the other party files a petition for bankruptcy, is or becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; and, in certain agreements, (iii) us if we decide, in our sole discretion, to no longer market the product or if a regulatory body denies or revokes approval for or otherwise attempts to restrict or prohibit the manufacture, packaging, labeling, storage, importation, sale or use of the product.

Development, Manufacture and Supply Agreements. In addition to the preceding provisions relating to the manufacture and supply of a product, some agreements also include provisions under which the supplier will develop the product on our behalf. Such development terms typically include the following provisions:

• in collaboration with our technical, quality and regulatory teams, the supplier develops, produces exhibit batches and provides us with data necessary for the preparation and filing of an ANDA for a product;

• our regulatory group compiles and submits the ANDA to the FDA in our name;

• we pay the supplier specified portions of agreed development fees upon successful completion of certain development milestones, typically including: (i) execution of the definitive development agreement; (ii) completion of stability batches; (iii) submission of the ANDA to the FDA; and (iv) approval of the ANDA by the FDA; and

• in certain circumstances, we may agree to pay for or provide the API and innovator product samples used in the development.

Licensing or Marketing Agreements. In certain cases, we have entered licensing or marketing agreements under which we agree to market through our sales and marketing team certain proprietary or generic products owned by others to our end-user customers as well as facilitate contract negotiations with GPOs. These agreements also typically provide that we will utilize our established infrastructure to support the commercialization of the product, including providing some or all of the customer service, warehousing and distribution services and any required order-to-cash processes. The terms of these agreements generally provide for us to earn a royalty based on net sales or net profit and for reimbursement of our direct expenses plus an additional service fee. Our exclusive agreement with Actavis, an international pharmaceutical company, to commercialize for sale in the U.S. a portfolio of its injectable products, as further discussed below in “Key Suppliers and Marketing Partners”, is an example of this type of agreement.

Joint Venture

In addition to the foregoing types of agreements, we also utilize joint venture arrangements in sourcing our products. We currently have one joint venture which is summarized below.

Sagent Agila LLC

In January 2007, we and Strides Arcolab International Limited, a company based in the United Kingdom and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Strides Arcolab Limited (“Strides”), entered into a joint venture agreement pursuant to which the parties formed Sagent Agila LLC (formerly known as Sagent Strides LLC) (“Sagent Agila”). The joint venture was formed for the purpose of selling into the U.S. market a wide variety of generic injectable products manufactured by Strides in their Indian facilities. Thereafter, we and Sagent Agila entered into a number of agreements relating to distribution, manufacture, supply and quality, and, as of December 31, 2013, these agreements covered a total of 21 different products represented by 33 ANDA filings. As of December 31, 2013, one product was in initial development, seven products were subject to ANDAs under review by the FDA, one product has been approved by the FDA and 12 products have been launched by us. Products from the Sagent Agila joint venture accounted for 15% of our net revenue in the year ended December 31, 2012, and less than 10% of our net revenues in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2011. In December 2013, Mylan Inc. acquired Agila Specialties Private Limited (“Agila”), the manufacturer of products for Sagent Agila, and Strides Inc., our joint venture partner, from Strides. This transaction did not have a material impact on our operations or financial position.

In September 2013, a facility owned by Agila received a warning letter from the FDA related to the FDA inspection of Agila’s Specialty Formulation Facility (“SFF”) in Bangalore, India. The warning letter identified violations of current good manufacturing practice (“cGMP”) related to the prevention of microbiological contamination of sterile drug products and systems to monitor environmental conditions in aseptic processing. The warning letter also described other deficiencies in the quality management function of SFF. The warning letter stated that new drug applications may not be approved until the facility has completed and the FDA has confirmed the remediation efforts and compliance with cGMP. Delays in the approval of the six Sagent Agila ANDAs currently being reviewed by the FDA, or limitations on the importation of products from the SFF facility, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Key Suppliers and Marketing Partners

Two of our business partners, A.C.S. Dobfar S.p.a. (“Dobfar”) and Gland Pharma Limited (“Gland”), provided us with products that collectively accounted for approximately 30% and 20%, respectively, of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013, approximately 35% and 26%, respectively, of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012, and approximately 33% and 29%, respectively, of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011. Set forth below is a brief discussion of the terms of our arrangements with these two partners along with our agreement with Actavis.

9

Dobfar

In 2007, we entered into manufacture and supply agreements with ACS Dobfar SpA-Italy (“Dobfar”) and its distributor, WorldGen LLC (“WorldGen”), and with ACS Dobfar SA-Switzerland (“Info”). Pursuant to the agreements, Dobfar develops, manufactures and supplies us with presentations of cefepime through WorldGen, and Info develops, manufactures and supplies us with presentations of levofloxacin in premix bags. In addition, we also have supply agreements or other purchase commitments with Dobfar and/or WorldGen covering six currently marketed products – ampicillin, ampicillin sulbactam, cefazolin, cefoxitin, ceftazadime and ceftriaxone, and, with Info, covering three currently marketed products – ciprofloxacin, fluconazole, and zoledronic acid bags, in both 4mg and 5mg presentations. We have additional products currently under evaluation or development with both Dobfar and Info.

We have agreed to pay WorldGen the transfer price for each unit of cefepime provided under the agreement. The initial term of the agreement expired on April 1, 2013, after which we had the option to renew the agreement for successive additional one-year terms unless Dobfar provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least one year prior to its initial expiration date or at least six months prior to the expiration of a renewal term. In February 2014, we exercised our option to renew the agreement for another one-year term through April 1, 2015.

Under the agreement with Info, we have agreed to pay a transfer price for each unit of levofloxacin supplied, plus a percentage of the net profit from the sales of levofloxacin in premix bags. In addition, we have agreed to share equally with Info the cost of development activities. The initial term of the agreement expires on July 7, 2016, after which we have the option to renew the agreement for successive additional two year terms unless Info provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least two years prior to its initial expiration date or the expiration date of a renewal term.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, net gross profit from products marketed under our agreements with Dobfar and its affiliates ranged from -38% to 49%. Net gross profit represents: (i) net sales less the cost of finished goods and inbound freight, which ranges from -39% to 98% of net sales, and (ii) applicable profit sharing due to Dobfar which ranges from 0% to 49% of net sales.

Gland

In June 2008, we entered into a development and supply agreement with Gland. Pursuant to the agreement, we and Gland jointly developed our heparin products, and Gland agreed to supply us heparin for sale in the U.S. market. In addition, we have agreed to use Gland as our exclusive supplier for heparin and Gland has agreed not to, directly or indirectly, sell heparin to any other person or entity that markets or makes use of or sells heparin in the U.S., subject to certain exceptions. In addition, we also have other supply agreements with Gland covering four currently marketed products, adenosine, amiodarone, ondansetron and vancomycin, and additional products currently under initial development.

We have agreed to pay a transfer price for each unit of heparin supplied under the agreement, plus a percentage of the net profit from the sales of heparin. In addition, each of us has agreed to share the cost of development activities equally up to a specified amount.

The initial term of the agreement expires in June 2016, after which, the term automatically renews for consecutive periods of one year unless (a) a third party has rights to market heparin in the U.S. as a result of our discontinuing active sales of heparin there or (b) either party provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least 24 months prior to the desired date of termination.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, net gross profit from products marketed under our agreements with Gland ranged from 0% to 68%. Net gross profit represents: (i) net sales less the cost of finished goods and inbound freight, which ranges from 0% to 79% of net sales, and (ii) applicable profit sharing due to Gland which ranges from 0% to 42% of net sales.

Actavis

In April 2009, we entered into a development, manufacturing and supply agreement with Actavis, an international pharmaceutical company. Under the terms of this agreement, we became the exclusive U.S. marketing partner under certain conditions for a portfolio of six specialty injectable products developed and manufactured by Actavis under its ANDAs. In February 2010, this agreement was amended to include two additional products. Pursuant to this agreement, Actavis supplies these products to us at a specified transfer price and will receive a specified percentage of the net profit from sales of such products. As of December 31, 2013, this agreement with Actavis covered ten products, including zoledronic acid 4mg vials, all of which are currently marketed.

In March 2013, we agreed with Actavis to terminate the development, manufacturing and supply agreement effective December 31, 2014. As consideration for the termination of the agreement, we received a one-time payment of $5.0 million in March 2013 and will receive a greater percentage of the net profit from sales of products during the remaining term of the agreement.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, net gross profit from products marketed under our agreements with Actavis ranged from -46% to 75%. Net gross profit represents: (i) net sales less the cost of finished goods and inbound freight, which ranges from -26% to 83% of net sales, and (ii) applicable profit sharing due to Actavis which ranges from 0% to 24% of net sales.

Quality Assurance and Facility Compliance

An important component of our strategy is to actively partner with our international network of collaborators to focus on quality assurance (“QA”), U.S. cGMP compliance, regulatory affairs and product development. We have developed and implemented quality management systems, including our in-house QA and facility compliance teams, to inspect, assess, train and qualify our vendors’ facilities, work to ensure that the facilities and the products manufactured in those facilities for us are cGMP compliant, and provide support for product launches and regulatory agency facility inspections. Our QA team provides product distribution authorization for finished products before they are shipped under our name, releases product upon receipt at our Memphis distribution center and monitors on-going product quality throughout the product lifecycle. Our in-house facility compliance team qualifies new vendors through an extensive inspection process, implements our quality control systems and monitors on-going vendor compliance with cGMPs through on-going surveillance, cGMP training and periodic performance evaluations. We work with our business partners to evaluate facility design, systems and capabilities to ensure that their manufacturing facilities meet or exceed industry standards and are capable of maintaining on-going FDA compliance. As of December 31, 2013, our in-house facility compliance team had qualified over 100 vendor sites. We are committed to upholding and enforcing our quality standards and only establish collaboration with those business partners who we believe share our commitment to quality and regulatory compliance. In addition, we have robust on-going qualification and compliance programs in place, which include routine audits, performance evaluations and for-cause audits. We have undergone three FDA inspections at our corporate headquarters, in 2007, 2010 and 2012, and one FDA inspection, in 2012, at our Chinese manufacturing facility. We have no open items from FDA Form 483s, which identify compliance concerns or objectionable conditions arising out of such inspections.

Financial Information on Geographic Areas

During 2013, 0.2% of our sales were made outside the United States of America and its territories, predominately in China. All of our sales were made in the United States of America and its territories in 2012 and 2011.

Employees

As of December 31, 2013, we had a total of 269 full-time employees, of which 38 were in sales and marketing, 34 were in regulatory affairs and facility compliance and 35 were in administration and finance in the United States, and 162 were employed by our Chengdu, China manufacturing facility. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppage and consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

You should read the following risk factors carefully in connection with evaluating our business and the forward-looking information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. While we believe we have identified and discussed below the key risk factors affecting our business, there may be additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known or that are not currently believed to be significant that may adversely affect our business, operating results or financial condition in the future.

We rely on our business partners for the manufacture of substantially all of our products, and if our business partners fail to supply us with high-quality API or finished products in the quantities we require on a timely basis, sales of our products could be delayed or prevented, and our revenues and margins could decline, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely upon our third-party business partners, principally located outside of the U.S., for the supply of all API and substantially all finished products. In most cases, we rely upon a limited number of business partners to supply us with the API or finished products for each of our products. If our business partners do not continue to provide these services or products to us we might not be able to obtain these services or products from others in a timely manner or on commercially acceptable terms. Likewise, if our business partners encounter delays or difficulties in producing API or our finished products, the distribution, marketing and subsequent sales of these products could be adversely affected. If, for any reason, our business partners are unable to obtain or deliver sufficient quantities of API or finished products on a timely basis or we develop any significant disagreements with our business partners, the manufacture or supply of our products could be disrupted, which may decrease our sales revenue, increase our operating expenses or otherwise negatively impact our operations. In addition, if we are unable to engage and retain business partners for the supply of API or finished product manufacturing on commercially acceptable terms, we may not be able to sell our products as planned.

Substantially all of our products are sterile injectable pharmaceuticals. The manufacture of our products is highly exacting and complex and our business partners may experience problems during the manufacture of API or finished products for a variety of reasons, including equipment malfunction, failure to follow specific protocols and procedures, manufacturing quality concerns, problems with raw materials, natural disaster related events or other environmental factors. In addition, the manufacture of certain API that we require for our products or the finished products require dedicated facilities and we may rely on a limited number or, in most cases, single vendors for these products and services. If problems arise during the production, storage or distribution of a batch of product, that batch of product may have to be discarded. If we are unable to find alternative qualified sources of API or finished products, this could, among other things, lead to increased costs, lost sales, damage to

12

customer relations, time and expense spent investigating the cause and, depending upon the cause, similar losses with respect to other batches or products. If problems are not discovered before the product is released to market, voluntary recalls, corrective actions or product liability related costs may also be incurred. For example, in June 2013 we initiated a voluntary recall of all lots of a critical care product that we sold from August 2011 through May 2013 due to the discovery of an elevated impurity result detected during routine quality testing of stability samples at the 18-month interval and in March 2011 we initiated a voluntary recall of all lots of one of our critical care products delivered in a pre-filled syringe that we sold from April 2010 to March 2011 due to reports of incompatibility of certain needleless I.V. sets with these products. Problems with respect to the manufacture, storage or distribution of our products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

While large finished product manufacturers have historically purchased API from foreign manufacturers and then manufactured and packaged the finished product in their own facility, recent growth in the number of foreign manufacturers capable of producing high-quality finished products at low cost have provided these finished product manufacturers opportunities to outsource the manufacturing of their products at lower costs than manufacturing such products in their own facilities. If the large finished product manufacturers continue to shift production from their own facilities to companies that we collaborate with to provide product development services, API or finished product manufacturing, we may experience added competition in obtaining these services which we rely upon to meet our customers’ demands.

If we or any of our business partners are unable to comply with the regulatory standards applicable to pharmaceutical manufacturers, we may be unable to meet the demand for our products, may lose potential revenues and our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

All of our business partners who supply us with API or finished products are subject to extensive regulation by governmental authorities in the U.S. and in other countries. Regulatory approval to manufacture a drug is site-specific. Our suppliers’ facilities and procedures are subject to ongoing regulation, including periodic inspection by the FDA and foreign regulatory agencies. Following an inspection, an agency may issue a notice listing conditions that are believed to violate cGMP or other regulations, or a warning letter for violations of “regulatory significance” that may result in enforcement action if not promptly and adequately cured. If any regulatory body were to require one of our vendors to cease or limit production, our business could be adversely affected.

Identifying alternative vendors and obtaining regulatory approval to change or substitute API or a manufacturer of a finished product can be time consuming and expensive. Any resulting delays and costs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations. We cannot assure you that our vendors will not be subject to such regulatory action in the future.

The FDA has the authority to revoke drug approvals previously granted and remove from the market previously approved products for various reasons, including issues related to cGMP. We may be subject from time to time to product recalls initiated by us or by the FDA. Delays in obtaining regulatory approvals, the revocation of prior approvals, or product recalls could impose significant costs on us and adversely affect our ability to generate revenue.

Furthermore, violations by us or our vendors of FDA regulations and other regulatory requirements could subject us to, among other things:

• warning letters;

• fines and civil penalties;

• total or partial suspension of production or sales;

• product seizure or recall;

• withdrawal of product approval; and

• criminal prosecution.

13

Any of these or any other regulatory action could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

In September 2013, a facility owned by Agila received a warning letter from the FDA related to the FDA inspection of Agila’s Specialty Formulation Facility (“SFF”) in Bangalore, India. The warning letter identified violations of current good manufacturing practice (“cGMP”) related to the prevention of microbiological contamination of sterile drug products and systems to monitor environmental conditions in aseptic processing. The warning letter also described other deficiencies in the quality management function of SFF. The warning letter stated that new drug applications may not be approved until the facility has completed and the FDA has confirmed the remediation efforts and compliance with cGMP. Delays in the approval of the six Sagent Agila ANDAs currently being reviewed by the FDA, or limitations on the importation of products from the SFF facility, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

We maintain our own in-house quality assurance and facility compliance teams that inspect, assess and qualify our business partners’ facilities for use by us, work to ensure that the facilities and the products manufactured in those facilities for us are cGMP compliant, and provide support for product launches and regulatory agency facility inspections. Despite these comprehensive efforts and our and our suppliers’ extensive quality systems, we cannot assure you that our business partners will adhere to our quality standards or that our compliance teams will be successful in ensuring that our business partners’ facilities and the products manufactured in those facilities are cGMP compliant. If our business partners fail to comply with our quality standards, our ability to compete may be significantly impaired and our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Any change in the regulations, enforcement procedures or regulatory policies established by the FDA and other regulatory agencies could increase the costs or time of development of our products and delay or prevent sales of our products and our revenues could decline and, as a result, our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Our products generally must receive appropriate regulatory clearance from the FDA before they can be sold in the U.S. Any change in the regulations, enforcement procedures or regulatory policies set by the FDA and other regulatory agencies could increase the costs or time of development of our products and delay or prevent sales of our products. For instance, beginning in October 2012, we began to pay a required filing fee to the FDA as part of every new ANDA submission and were required to pay an additional fee with respect to ANDAs previously filed, but not yet approved, as of October 1, 2012. We cannot determine what effect further changes in regulations, statutes, legal interpretation or policies, when and if promulgated, enacted or adopted, may have on our business in the future. Such changes could, among other things, require:

• changes to manufacturing methods;

• expanded or different labeling;

• recall, replacement or discontinuance of certain products;

• additional record keeping; and

• changes in methods to determine bio-equivalents

Such changes, or new legislation, could increase the costs of, delay or prevent sales of our products and, as a result, our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially adversely effected. In addition, increases in the time that is required for us to obtain FDA approval of ANDAs could delay our commercialization of new products. In that regard, the time required to obtain FDA approval of ANDAs has increased from an industry-wide median of approximately 22 months after initial filing in 2008 to an industry-wide median of approximately 34 months after initial filing in 2013. Approval times could continue to increase as a result of the upcoming expiration of the U.S. patents covering a number of key injectable pharmaceutical

14

products. No assurance can be given that ANDAs submitted for our products will receive FDA approval on a timely basis, if at all, nor can we estimate the timing of the ANDA approvals with any reasonable degree of certainty.

A relatively small group of products supplied by a limited number of our vendors represents a significant portion of our net revenue. If the volume or pricing of any of these products declines, or we are unable to satisfy market demand for these products, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Sales of a limited number of our products collectively represent a significant portion of our net revenue. If the volume or pricing of our largest selling products declines in the future or we are unable to satisfy market demand for these products, our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Additionally, the price volatility of generic pharmaceutical products launched at market formation, such as zoledronic acid in March 2013, is generally greater than the volatility in established generic markets. Should prices in newly formed markets decline more rapidly than anticipated, our financial position and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Three of our products, zoledronic acid, heparin and levofloxacin, collectively accounted for approximately 46% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013, while heparin and levofloxacin accounted for approximately 37% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012, and heparin, levofloxacin and cefepime collectively accounted for approximately 39% of our net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011. Our ten largest products accounted for approximately 70%, 70% and 76% of our net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We expect that our heparin, levofloxacin, and zoledronic acid products will continue to represent a significant portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable future. These and our other key products could be rendered obsolete or uneconomical by numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

• pricing actions by competitors;

• development by others of new pharmaceutical products that are more effective than ours;

• entrance of new competitors into our markets;

• loss of key relationships with suppliers, GPOs or end-user customers;

• technological advances;

• manufacturing or supply interruptions;

• changes in the prescribing practices of physicians;

• changes in third-party reimbursement practices;

• product liability claims; and

• product recalls or safety alerts.

Any factor adversely affecting the sale of our key products may cause our revenues to decline, and our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

In addition, we currently rely on single vendors to supply us with API and finished product manufacturing with respect to heparin, levofloxacin in a premix bag and zoledronic acid 4mg vials. If we are unable to maintain our relationships with these vendors on commercially acceptable terms, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Our markets are highly competitive and, if we are unable to compete successfully, our revenues could decline and our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

The injectable pharmaceutical market is highly competitive. Our competitors include large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and generic drug companies. Our principal

15

competitors include Fresenius, Hospira, Pfizer, Sandoz, Teva and West-Ward. In most cases, these competitors have access to greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than we do. As a result, they may be able to devote more resources to the development, manufacture, marketing and sale of their products, receive a greater share of the capacity from API suppliers and finished product manufacturers, obtain more support from independent distributors, initiate or withstand substantial price competition or more readily take advantage of acquisition or other growth opportunities.

The generic segment of the injectable pharmaceutical market is characterized by a high level of price competition, as well as other competitive factors including reliability of supply, quality and enhanced product features. To the extent that any of our competitors are more successful with respect to any key competitive factor, our business, results of operations and financial position could be adversely affected. Pricing pressure could arise from, among other things, limited demand growth or a significant number of additional competitive products being introduced into a particular product market, price reductions by competitors, the ability of competitors to capitalize on their economies of scale and create excess product supply, the ability of competitors to produce or otherwise secure API and/or finished products at lower costs than what we are required to pay to our business partners under our collaborations and the access of competitors to new technology that we do not possess.

The generic injectable pharmaceutical market has experienced a number of significant merger and acquisition transactions that are driving consolidation in the markets in which we compete. Such consolidations may create larger companies with which we must compete, eliminate actual or potential sources for API and finished products, reduce the number of vendors willing to supply us with products, and provide further pressure on prices, development activities or customer retention. The impact of consolidation in the industry could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial position.

In addition to competition from established market participants, new entrants to the generic injectable pharmaceutical market could substantially reduce our market share or render our products obsolete. Most of our products are generic injectable versions of branded products. As patents for branded products and related exclusivity periods expire or are ruled invalid, the first generic pharmaceutical manufacturer to receive regulatory approval for a generic version of the reference product is generally able to achieve significant market penetration and higher margins on that product. As competing generic manufacturers receive regulatory approval on, and begin to market, this product, market share, revenue and gross profit typically decline for the original generic entrant. In addition, as more competitors enter a specific generic market, the average selling price per unit dose of the particular product typically declines for all competitors. Our ability to sustain our level of market share, revenue and gross profit attributable to a particular generic pharmaceutical product is significantly influenced by the number of competitors in that product’s market and the timing of that product’s regulatory approval and launch in relation to competing approvals and launches.

Branded pharmaceutical companies often take aggressive steps to thwart competition from generic companies. The launch of our generic products could be delayed because branded drug manufacturers may, among other things:

• make last minute modifications to existing product claims and labels, thereby requiring generic products to reflect this change prior to the drug being approved and introduced in the market;

• file new patents for existing products prior to the expiration of a previously issued patent, which could extend patent protection for additional years;

• file patent infringement suits that automatically delay for a specific period the approval of generic versions by the FDA;

• develop and market their own generic versions of their products, either directly or through other generic pharmaceutical companies; and

• file citizens’ petitions with the FDA contesting generic approvals on alleged health and safety grounds.

16

Furthermore, the FDA may grant a single generic manufacturer other than us a 180-day period of marketing exclusivity under the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 as patents or other exclusivity periods for branded products expire.

If we are unable to continue to develop and commercialize new products in a timely and cost-effective manner, we may not achieve our expected revenue growth or profitability, or our business, results of operations and financial position could be adversely affected.

Our future success will depend to a significant degree on our ability to continue to develop and commercialize new products in a timely and cost-effective manner. The development and commercialization of new products is complex, time-consuming and costly and involves a high degree of business risk. As of December 31, 2013, we actively marketed 53 products, and our new product pipeline included 37 products represented by 62 ANDAs that we had filed, or licensed rights to, and were under review by the FDA, and two products represented by seven ANDAs that have been recently approved by the FDA and are pending commercial launch. We may, however, encounter unexpected delays in the launch of these products, or these products, if and when fully commercialized by us, may not perform as we expect. For example, our 62 pending ANDAs may not receive FDA approval on a timely basis, if at all.

The success of our new product offerings will depend upon several factors, including our ability to anticipate customer needs, obtain timely regulatory approvals and locate and establish collaborations with suppliers of API, product development and finished product manufacturing in a timely and cost-effective manner. In addition, the development and commercialization of new products is characterized by significant up-front costs, including costs associated with product development activities, sourcing API and manufacturing capability, obtaining regulatory approval, building inventory and sales and marketing. Furthermore, the development and commercialization of new products is subject to inherent risks, including the possibility that any new product may:

• fail to receive or encounter unexpected delays in obtaining necessary regulatory approvals;

• be difficult or impossible to manufacture on a large scale;

• be uneconomical to market;

• fail to be developed prior to the successful marketing of similar or superior products by third parties; and

• infringe on the proprietary rights of third parties.

We may not achieve our expected revenue growth or profitability or our business, results of operations and financial position could be adversely affected if we are not successful in continuing to develop and commercialize new products.

If we are unable to maintain our GPO relationships, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Most of the end-users of injectable pharmaceutical products have relationships with GPOs whereby such GPOs provide such end-users access to a broad range of pharmaceutical products from multiple suppliers at competitive prices and, in certain cases, exercise considerable influence over the drug purchasing decisions of such end-users. Hospitals and other end-users contract with the GPO of their choice for their purchasing needs. Collectively, we believe the five largest U.S. GPOs represented the majority of the acute care hospital market in 2013. We currently derive, and expect to continue to derive, a large percentage of our revenue from end-user customers that are members of a small number of GPOs. For example, the five largest U.S. GPOs represented end-user customers that collectively accounted for approximately 39%, 33% and 30% of our net contract revenue for each of the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Maintaining our strong relationships with these GPOs will require us to continue to be a reliable supplier, offer a broad product line, remain price competitive, comply with FDA regulations and provide high-quality products. Although our GPO pricing agreements are typically multi-year in duration, most of them may be terminated by either party with 60 or 90 days notice. The GPOs with whom we have relationships may have relationships with manufacturers that sell competing products, and such GPOs may earn higher margins from these products or combinations of competing

17

products or may prefer products other than ours for other reasons. If we are unable to maintain our GPO relationships, sales of our products and revenue could decline and our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

We rely on a limited number of pharmaceutical wholesalers to distribute our products.

As is typical in the pharmaceutical industry, we rely upon pharmaceutical wholesalers in connection with the distribution of our products. A significant amount of our products are sold to end-users under GPO pricing arrangements through a limited number of pharmaceutical wholesalers. We currently derive, and expect to continue to derive, a large percentage of our sales through the three largest wholesalers in the U.S. market, Amerisource, Cardinal Health and McKesson. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the products we sold through these wholesalers accounted for approximately 36%, 25% and 24%, respectively, of our net revenue. Collectively, our sales to these three wholesalers represented approximately 84%, 82% and 83% of our net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. If we are unable to maintain our business relationships with these major pharmaceutical wholesalers on commercially acceptable terms, it could have a material adverse effect on our sales and results of operations.

We depend upon our key personnel, the loss of whom could adversely affect our operations. If we fail to attract and retain the talent required for our business, our business could be materially harmed.

We are a relatively small company and we depend to a significant degree on the principal members of our management and sales team, which include Messrs. Yordon, our Chief Executive Officer, Hussey, our President, Singer, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Logerfo, our Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer and Patterson, our Executive Vice President, National Accounts and Corporate Development. The loss of services from any of these persons may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our product development or business objectives. We carry key man life insurance on Mr. Yordon in the amount of $5.0 million; we do not carry key man life insurance on any other key personnel. We have entered into employment agreements with certain of our key employees that contain restrictive covenants relating to non-competition and non-solicitation of our customers and employees for a period of 12 months after termination of employment. Nevertheless, each of our officers and key employees may terminate his or her employment at any time without notice and without cause or good reason, and so as a practical matter these agreements do not guarantee the continued service of these employees. Our success depends upon our ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition among pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies for qualified employees is intense, and the ability to attract and retain qualified individuals is critical to our success. We may not be able to attract and retain these individuals on acceptable terms or at all, and our inability to do so could significantly impair our ability to compete.

Our inability to manage our planned growth could harm our business.

As we expand our business and integrate our SCP manufacturing facility in China, we expect that our operating expenses and capital requirements will increase. As our product portfolio and product pipeline grow, we may require additional personnel on our project management, in-house quality assurance and facility compliance teams to work with our partners on quality assurance, U.S. cGMP compliance, regulatory affairs and product development. As a result, our operating expenses and capital requirements may increase significantly. In addition, we may encounter unexpected difficulties managing our worldwide network of collaborations with API suppliers and finished product developers and manufacturers as we seek to expand such network in order to expand our product portfolio. Our ability to manage our growth effectively requires us to forecast accurately our sales, growth and global manufacturing capacity and to expend funds to improve our operational, financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures. If we are unable to manage our anticipated growth effectively, our business could be harmed.

We may be exposed to product liability claims that could cause us to incur significant costs or cease selling some of our products.

Our business inherently exposes us to claims for injuries allegedly resulting from the use of our products. We may be held liable for, or incur costs related to, liability claims if any of our products cause injury or are found

18

unsuitable during development, manufacture, sale or use. These risks exist even with respect to products that have received, or may in the future receive, regulatory approval for commercial use. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantial liabilities. Even successful defense would require significant financial and management resources. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:

• decreased demand for our products;

• injury to our reputation;

• initiation of investigations by regulators;

• costs to defend the related litigation;

• a diversion of management’s time and resources;

• compensatory damages and fines;

• product recalls, withdrawals or labeling, marketing or promotional restrictions;

• loss of revenue; and

• exhaustion of any available insurance and our capital resources.

Our product liability insurance may not be adequate and, at any time, insurance coverage may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. A product liability claim could result in liability to us greater than our insurance coverage or assets. Even if we have adequate insurance coverage, product liability claims or recalls could result in negative publicity or force us to devote significant time and attention to those matters.

If our products conflict with the intellectual property rights of third parties, we may incur substantial liabilities and we may be unable to commercialize products in a profitable manner or at all.

We seek to launch generic pharmaceutical products either where patent protection or other regulatory exclusivity of equivalent branded products has expired, where patents have been declared invalid or where products do not infringe on the patents of others. However, at times, we may seek approval to market generic products before the expiration of patents relating to the branded versions of those products, based upon our belief that such patents are invalid or otherwise unenforceable or would not be infringed by our products. Our success depends in part on our ability to operate without infringing the patents and proprietary rights of third parties. The manufacture, use and sale of generic versions of products has been subject to substantial litigation in the pharmaceutical industry. These lawsuits relate to the validity and infringement of patents or proprietary rights of third parties. If our products were found to be infringing on the intellectual property rights of a third-party, we could be required to cease selling the infringing products, causing us to lose future sales revenue from such products and face substantial liabilities for patent infringement, in the form of either payment for the innovator’s lost profits or a royalty on our sales of the infringing product. These damages may be significant and could materially adversely affect our business. Any litigation, regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, would be costly and time consuming and we could incur significant costs and/or a significant reduction in revenue in defending the action and from the resulting delays in manufacturing, marketing or selling any of our products subject to such claims.

Recently enacted and future healthcare law and policy changes may adversely affect our business.

In March 2010, the U.S. Congress enacted the Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. This health care reform legislation is intended to broaden access to health insurance, reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for healthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms. While we will not know the full effects of this health care reform legislation until applicable federal and state agencies issue additional regulations or guidance under the new law, it appears likely to continue the pressure on pharmaceutical pricing, especially under the Medicare program, and may also increase our regulatory burdens and operating costs.

19

We expect both federal and state governments in the U.S. and foreign governments to continue to propose and pass new legislation, rules and regulations designed to contain or reduce the cost of healthcare while expanding individual healthcare benefits. Existing regulations that affect the price of pharmaceutical and other medical products may also change before any of our products are approved for marketing. Cost control initiatives could decrease the price that we receive for any product we develop in the future. In addition, third-party payors are increasingly challenging the price and cost-effectiveness of medical products and services. Significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of newly approved pharmaceutical products, including injectable products. Our products may not be considered cost effective, or adequate third-party reimbursement may not be available to enable us to maintain price levels sufficient to realize a return on our investments.

If reimbursement for our current or future products is reduced or modified, our business could suffer.

Sales of our products depend, in part, on the extent to which the costs of our products are paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare management organizations, or are reimbursed by government health administration authorities, private health coverage insurers and other third-party payors. These healthcare management organizations and third-party payors are increasingly challenging the prices charged for medical products and services. Additionally, as discussed above, the containment of healthcare costs has become a priority of federal and state governments, and the prices of drugs and other healthcare products have been targeted in this effort. Accordingly, our current and potential products may not be considered cost effective, and reimbursement to the consumer may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive basis. Legislation and regulations affecting reimbursement for our products may change at any time and in ways that are difficult to predict, and these changes may have a material adverse effect on our business. Any reduction in Medicare, Medicaid or other third-party payor reimbursements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Any failure to comply with the complex reporting and payment obligations under Medicare, Medicaid and other government programs may result in litigation or sanctions.

We are subject to various federal, state and foreign laws pertaining to foreign corrupt practices and healthcare fraud and abuse, including anti-kickback, marketing and pricing laws. Violations of these laws are punishable by criminal and/or civil sanctions, including, in some instances, imprisonment and exclusion from participation in federal and state healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. If there is a change in laws, regulations or administrative or judicial interpretations, we may have to change our business practices, or our existing business practices could be challenged as unlawful, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.

Current economic conditions could adversely affect our operations.

The current economic environment is marked by continued heightened unemployment rates and financial stresses on households. In addition, the securities and credit markets have been experiencing volatility, and in some cases, have exerted negative pressure on the availability of liquidity and credit capacity for certain borrowers. Demand for our products may decrease due to these adverse economic conditions, as the loss of jobs or healthcare coverage, decreases an individual’s ability to pay for elective healthcare or causes individuals to delay procedures. Interest rate fluctuations, changes in capital market conditions and adverse economic conditions may also affect our customers’ ability to obtain credit to finance their purchases of our products, which could reduce our revenue and materially adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.

We may need to raise additional capital in the event we change our business plan or encounter unexpected developments, which may cause dilution to our existing stockholders, restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights.

We may require significant additional funds earlier than we currently expect in the event we change our business plan, execute a strategic acquisition, or encounter unexpected developments, including unforeseen competitive conditions within our markets, changes in the general economic climate, changes in the regulatory environment,

20

the loss of key relationships with suppliers, GPOs or end-user customers or other unexpected developments that may have a material effect on the cash flows or results of operations of our business. If required, additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. Our ability to raise additional funding, if necessary, is subject to a variety of factors that we cannot predict with certainty, including our future results of operations, our relative levels of debt and equity, the volatility and overall condition of the capital markets and the market prices of our securities. We may seek additional capital through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financings and collaboration arrangements. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. In addition, additional debt financing may only be available to us on less favorable terms than our SVB Loan Facility, including higher interest rates or greater exposure to interest rate risk. If we raise additional funds through collaboration arrangements, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our products or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. We may elect to raise additional funds even before we need them if the conditions for raising capital are favorable.

We are subject to a number of risks associated with managing our international network of collaborations.

We have an international network of collaborations that includes 46 business partners worldwide as of December 31, 2013, including 14 in Europe, twelve in the Americas, ten in China and Taiwan, eight in India, one in the Middle East and one in Australia. As part of our business strategy, we intend to continue to identify further collaborations involving API sourcing, product development, finished product manufacturing and product licensing. We expect that a significant percentage of these new collaborations will be with business partners located outside the U.S. Managing our existing and future international network of collaborations could impose substantial burdens on our resources, divert management’s attention from other areas of our business and otherwise harm our business. In addition, our international network of collaborations subjects us to certain risks, including:

• legal uncertainties regarding, and timing delays associated with, tariffs, export licenses and other trade barriers;

• increased difficulty in operating across differing legal regimes, including resolving legal disputes that may arise between us and our business partners;

• difficulty in staffing and effectively monitoring our business partners’ facilities and operations across multiple geographic regions;

• workforce uncertainty in countries where labor unrest is more common than in the U.S.;

• unfavorable tax or trade restrictions or currency calculations;

• production shortages resulting from any events affecting raw material supply or manufacturing capabilities abroad; and

• changes in diplomatic and trade relationships.

Any of these or other factors could adversely affect our ability to effectively manage our international network of collaborations and our operating results.

We may never realize the expected benefits from our manufacturing facility in China and it may require substantial additional capital resources.

Our SCP manufacturing facility in China represents a significant investment by us. Through December 31, 2012, we had invested an aggregate of approximately $26.0 million in our KSCP joint venture, and on June 4, 2013, we completed the purchase of the remaining equity interests in SCP from our former joint venture partner for $25.0 million, payable in installments through 2015. Our SCP manufacturing facility was established to construct and operate an FDA approvable, cGMP, sterile manufacturing facility in Chengdu, China that will provide us with access to dedicated manufacturing capacity that utilizes state-of-the-art full isolator technology for aseptic filling. Through this facility, SCP is expected to manufacture finished products for us on an exclusive basis for sale in the U.S. and other attractive markets and for third parties on a contract basis for sale in other non-U.S. markets. SCP may also directly access the Chinese domestic market. The FDA inspected the facility in 2012, and the

21

facility received its first product approval during the first half of 2013. As such, SCP has only recently commenced commercial operations, and has historically incurred significant operating losses. We expect SCP to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future as it continues to ramp up its operations. Since the SCP Acquisition, we have consolidated its results of operations with our results of operations for accounting purposes. As a result, all of SCP’s operating losses are now reflected in our consolidated financial statements, which will have a negative impact on our reported operating results.

We may never, however, realize the expected benefits of our SCP manufacturing facility due to, among other things:

• the facility may never become commercially viable for a variety of reasons in and/or beyond our control;

• the facility may never receive appropriate FDA or other regulatory approvals to manufacture additional products or such approvals may be delayed;

• we may be required to incur substantial expenses and make substantial capital investments to enable the facility to operate efficiently and to contribute positively to our revenue or earnings; general political and economic uncertainty could impact operations at the facility, including multiple regulatory requirements that are subject to change, any future implementation of trade protection measures and import or export licensing requirements between the U.S. and China, labor regulations or work stoppages at the facility, fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rates and complying with U.S. regulations that apply to international operations, including trade laws and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; and operations at the facility may be disrupted for any reason, including natural disaster, related events or other environmental factors.

Any of these or any other action that results in the manufacturing facility being unable to operate as anticipated could materially adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.

We rely on a single vendor to manage our order to cash cycle and our distribution activities, and the loss or disruption of service from this vendor could adversely affect our operations and financial condition

Our customer service, order processing, invoicing, cash application, chargeback and rebate processing and distribution and logistics activities are managed by Dohmen Life Science Services (“DLSS”). DLSS’ Business Process Outsourcing solution to life science companies connects finance, information systems, commercialization, supply chain, drug safety and sales support processes. If we were to lose the availability of DLSS’ services due to fire, natural disaster or other disruption, such loss could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Although multiple providers of such services exist, there can be no assurance that we could secure another source to handle these transactions on acceptable terms or otherwise to our specifications in the event of a disruption of services at either their Memphis, Tennessee logistics center or Milwaukee, Wisconsin order to cash cycle processing center.

Our revenue growth may not continue at historical rates, we may never achieve our business strategy of optimizing our gross and operating margins, and our business may suffer as a result of our limited operating history or lack of public company operating experience.

Since our inception in 2006, we have experienced rapid growth in our net revenue. Although we expect our revenue to continue to grow over the long term due to both continued commercial success with our existing products and the launch of new products, we cannot provide any assurances that our revenue growth will continue at historical rates, if at all. In addition, as part of our business strategy we intend to seek to optimize our gross and operating margins by improving the commercial terms of our supply arrangements and to gain access to additional, more favorable API, product development and manufacturing capabilities, including launching products from our wholly-owned SCP manufacturing facility. We may, however, encounter unforeseen difficulties in improving the commercial terms of our current supply arrangements, in gaining access to additional arrangements, or in successfully manufacturing products from our SCP facility, and, as a result, cannot provide any assurances that we will be successful in optimizing our margins. Finally, we have a limited operating

22

history at our current scale of operations, and as a public company. Our limited operating history and public company operating experience may make it difficult to forecast and evaluate our future prospects. If we are unable to execute our business strategy and grow our business, either as a result of our inability to manage our current size, effectively manage the business in a public company environment, manage our future growth or for any other reason, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be harmed.

Currency exchange rate fluctuations may have an adverse effect on our business.

We generally record sales in U.S. dollars, and pay our expenses in the local currency of the Sagent entity that incurs expenses, either U.S. dollars or Chinese Renminbi. Substantially all of our business partners that supply us with API, product development services and finished product manufacturing are located in foreign jurisdictions, such as India, China, Romania and Brazil, and we believe they generally incur their respective operating expenses in local currencies, and we generally pay for such API, services and products in U.S. dollars. As a result, both we and our business partners may be exposed to currency rate fluctuations and experience an effective increase in operating expenses in the event local currencies appreciate against the U.S. dollar. In this event, the cost of manufacturing product from our SCP facility may increase or such business partners may elect to stop providing us with these services or attempt to pass these increased costs back to us through increased prices for product development services, API sourcing or finished products that they supply to us, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business.

We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws.

The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to non-U.S. officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Our internal control policies mandate compliance with these laws. Many of our business partners who supply us with product development services, API sourcing and finished product manufacturing are located in parts of the world that have experienced governmental corruption to some degree, and, in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti-bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices. Despite our compliance program, we cannot assure you that our internal control policies and procedures always will protect us from reckless or negligent acts committed by our employees or agents. Violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could have a negative impact on our business, results of operations and reputation.

We may seek to engage in strategic transactions that could have a variety of negative consequences, and we may not realize the benefits of such transactions.

From time to time, we may seek to engage in strategic transactions with third parties, such as strategic partnerships, joint ventures, restructurings, divestitures, acquisitions and other investments. Any such transaction may require us to incur non-recurring and other charges, increase our near and long-term expenditures, pose significant integration challenges, require additional expertise and disrupt our management and business, which could harm our business, financial position and results of operations. We may face significant competition in seeking appropriate strategic partners and transactions, and the negotiation process for any strategic transaction could be time-consuming and complex. There is no assurance that, following the consummation of a strategic transaction, we will achieve the anticipated revenues, profits or other benefits from the transaction, and we may incur greater costs than expected.

Our inability to protect our intellectual property in the U.S. and foreign countries could limit our ability to manufacture or sell our products.

As a specialty and generic pharmaceutical company, we have limited intellectual property surrounding our generic injectable products. However, we are developing specialized devices, systems and branding strategies that we will seek to protect through trade secrets, unpatented proprietary know-how, continuing technological innovation, and traditional intellectual property protection through trademarks, copyrights and patents to preserve our competitive position. In addition, we seek copyright protection of our packaging and labels. Despite these measures, we may not be able to prevent third parties from using our intellectual property, copying aspects of our products and packaging, or obtaining and using information that we regard as proprietary.

23

Unforeseen problems with the implementation and maintenance of our equipment and information systems could interfere with our operations.

In the normal course of business, we must record and process significant amounts of data quickly and accurately and we rely on various computer and telecommunications equipment and information technology systems. Any failure of such equipment or systems could adversely affect our operations.

As part of our initiative to update our business processes and information technology systems, we are implementing new enterprise resource planning software and other related applications. We are likely to incur substantial costs associated with both implementation and maintenance of these new applications, and unforeseen problems could arise. We have engaged third-party consultants for the development and implementation of the new systems, and if the consultants fail to perform their obligations, development and implementation of the project could be delayed. If the new systems do not perform as originally planned, our business, financial position and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Investment funds managed by Vivo Ventures, LLC own a substantial percentage of our common stock, which may prevent other investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.

Investment funds managed by Vivo Ventures, LLC (“Vivo Ventures”) beneficially own approximately 7,799,737 shares, or 24.5% of our outstanding Common Stock as of December 31, 2013. As a result, Vivo Ventures will, for the foreseeable future, have significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including election of directors, adoption or amendments to equity-based incentive plans, amendments to our certificate of incorporation and certain mergers, acquisitions and other change-of-control transactions. In addition, one investment professional of Vivo Ventures currently serves on our board of directors. Vivo Ventures’ ownership of a large amount of our voting power may have an adverse effect on the price of our Common Stock. The interests of Vivo Ventures may not be consistent with your interests as a stockholder.

Our ability to use net operating and certain built-in losses to reduce future income tax obligations may be subject to limitation under the Internal Revenue Code as a result of past and future transactions.

Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 contain rules that limit the ability of a company that undergoes an ownership change, which is generally any change in ownership of more than 50% of its stock over a three-year period, to utilize its net operating loss, tax credit carryforwards, and certain built-in losses recognized in the years after the ownership change. These rules generally operate by focusing on ownership changes involving stockholders who directly or indirectly own 5% or more of the stock of a company, which may be triggered by a new issuance of stock by the company. Generally, if such a 50% ownership change occurs, the yearly limitation on the use of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and certain built-in losses against taxable income is equal to the product of the applicable long term tax exempt rate (currently around 4%) and the aggregate value of the company’s stock immediately before the ownership change.

In conjunction with our initial public offering, we underwent an ownership change as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As none of our operating loss carryforwards expire before 2027, we believe that we will have a reasonable opportunity to use all of such loss carryforwards prior to their expiry, but such loss carryforwards will only be usable to the extent we generate sufficient taxable income. It is possible that future transactions (including issuances of new shares of our common stock and sales of shares of our common stock) will cause us to undergo one or more ownership changes. In that event, we generally would not be able to use our pre-change loss or certain built-in losses prior to such ownership change to offset future taxable income in excess of the annual limitations imposed by Sections 382 and 383, and those attributes already subject to limitations (as a result of our prior ownership changes) may be subject to more stringent limitations. Because we have generated tax losses since our inception, our deferred tax asset currently reflects a full valuation allowance against our net operating loss and other tax credit carryforwards. As a result, an ownership change would not result in a reduction of our deferred tax asset or a change to our results of operations (unless this valuation allowance is reversed, in whole or in part, prior to such ownership change).

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties.

As of December 31, 2013, we conducted substantially all of our operations through an aggregate of approximately 23,500 square feet of office space in our headquarters in Schaumburg, Illinois under a lease that expires on December 31, 2016. We believe that our current facility is adequate for our corporate needs for the immediate future and that, should it be needed, suitable additional space will be available to accommodate expansion of our operations on commercially reasonable terms.

Our SCP subsidiary has completed construction of a manufacturing facility in Chengdu, China. The facility was inspected by the FDA in 2012, and the first product was approved from the facility in 2013. This facility occupies approximately 300,000 square feet. We do not currently have plans to purchase or lease additional facilities for manufacturing, packaging or warehousing, as such services are generally provided to us by our business partners and other third-party vendors.

In December 2013, we entered an initial two year lease on approximately 10,000 square feet of space in the Chengdu Hi-Tech Development Zone, where we will perform product development activities in conjunction with our SCP subsidiary.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

We are from time to time subject to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims may include assertions that our products infringe existing patents and claims that the use of our products has caused personal injuries. We intend to defend vigorously any such litigation that may arise under all defenses that would be available to us. We are currently party to the following litigation:

Zoledronic Acid (Generic versions of Zometa^® and Reclast^®). On February 20, 2013, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation (“Novartis”) sued the Company and several other defendants in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging, among other things, that sales of the Company’s (i) zoledronic acid premix bag (4mg/100ml), made by ACS Dobfar Info S.A. (“Info”), also a defendant, a generic version of Novartis’ Zometa^® ready to use bottle , would infringe U.S. Patent No. 7,932,241 (the “241 Patent”) and U.S. Patent No. 8,324,189 (the “189 Patent”) and (ii) zoledronic acid premix bag (5mg/100ml), also made by Info, a generic version of Novartis’ Reclast^® ready to use bottle, would infringe U.S. Patent No. 8,052,987 and the 241 Patent, and (iii) zoledronic acid vial (4mg/5ml), made by Actavis LLC, also a defendant, a generic version of Novartis’ Zometa^® vial, would infringe the 189 Patent. (Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation v. Actavis, LLC, et. al., Case No. 13-cv-1028) On March 1, 2013, the District Court denied Novartis’ request for a temporary restraining order against the Company and the other defendants, including Actavis and Info. On March 6, 2013, the Company, began selling Actavis’ zoledronic acid vial, the generic version of Zometa^®. Also, as of August 27, 2013 and October 1, 2013, the Company began selling zoledronic acid premix bags in 4mg/100ml and 5mg/100ml presentations, respectively. The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the case, and the Company has sold and will continue to sell these products. While an estimate of the potential loss resulting from an adverse final determination that one of the patents in suit is valid and infringed cannot currently be made as specific monetary damages have not been asserted, an adverse final determination could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

At this time, there are no proceedings of which management is aware that are considered likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following is a discussion and analysis of the consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows of our company as of and for the periods presented below. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in Item 8 under the heading “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on the beliefs of our management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in or implied by forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

Overview

We are a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing, sourcing and marketing injectable pharmaceutical products, which we sell primarily in the United States of America through our highly experienced sales and marketing team. With a primary focus on generic injectable pharmaceuticals, which provide customers a lower-cost alternative to branded products when patent protection has expired or been declared invalid, or the products are determined not to infringe the patents of others, we offer our customers a broad range of products across anti-infective, oncolytic and critical care indications in a variety of presentations, including single- and multi-dose vials, pre-filled ready-to-use syringes and premix bags. We seek generally to develop injectable products where the form or packaging of the product can be enhanced to improve delivery, product safety or end-user convenience. Our management team includes industry veterans who have previously served critical functions at other injectable pharmaceutical companies or key customer groups and have long-standing relationships with customers, regulatory agencies, and suppliers.

We have rapidly established a growing and diverse product portfolio and product pipeline as a result of our innovative business model. The model combines an extensive network of collaborations with API suppliers and finished product developers and manufacturers in Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Australia and the Americas with our proven and experienced U.S.-based regulatory, quality assurance, business development, project management, and sales and marketing teams. As of December 31, 2013, our network provided us access to over 100 worldwide manufacturing and development facilities, including several dedicated facilities used to manufacture specific complex APIs and finished products. Our 50/50 joint venture known as Sagent Agila LLC (formerly known as Sagent Strides LLC) with Agila Specialities Pvt. Ltd., a subsidiary of Mylan Inc. (“Agila”), was established to facilitate the sale in the U.S. market of a wide variety of generic injectable products manufactured by Agila.

In June 2013, we acquired the remaining 50% interest in Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., (“KSCP”) from our former joint venture partner. The entity, which has been renamed Sagent (China) Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. (“SCP”) provides us with a dedicated, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. The facility received its Establishment Inspection Report (“EIR”) in April 2013, and its first product approval in June 2013. We launched our first product from this facility, carboplatin, in the fourth quarter of 2013.

We are developing an extensive injectable product portfolio encompassing multiple presentations of a broad range of products across anti-infective, oncolytic and critical care indications. Our product portfolio has grown to a total of 53 marketed products that we offer in an aggregate of 144 presentations as of December 31, 2013.

We maintain an active product development program. Our new product pipeline can be generally classified into two categories: (i) new products for which we have submitted or acquired ANDAs that are filed and under review by the FDA; and (ii) new products for which we have begun initial development activities such as sourcing of API and finished products and preparing the necessary ANDAs. As of December 31, 2013, our new product pipeline included 37 products represented by 62 ANDAs that we had filed, or licensed rights to, that were under review by the FDA, and two products represented by seven ANDAs that have been recently approved by the FDA and are pending commercial launch. Our 62 ANDAs under review by the FDA as of December 31,

28

2013 have been on file for an average of approximately 33 months, with 12 of them being on file for less than 12 months, 12 of them being on file for between 12 and 24 months and 38 of them being on file for longer than 24 months. We also had approximately 24 additional products under initial development as of December 31, 2013. Our product development activities also include expanding our product portfolio by adding new products through in-licensing and similar arrangements with foreign manufacturers and domestic virtual pharmaceutical development companies that seek to utilize our U.S. sales and marketing expertise.

The specific timing of our new product launches is subject to a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including the timing of FDA approval for ANDAs currently under review or that we file with respect to new products. The timing of these and other new product launches will have a significant impact on our results of operations.

The following table provides a summary of certain aspects of our product development efforts for the periods presented:

Product Competition and Development Costs

Within the U.S. generic pharmaceutical industry, the level of market share, revenue and gross profit attributable to a particular generic product is influenced significantly by the number of competitors in that product’s market and the timing of the product’s regulatory approval and launch in relation to competing approvals and launches. In order to establish market presence, we initially selected products for development based in large part on our ability to rapidly secure API sourcing, finished product manufacturing and regulatory approvals despite such products facing significant competition from existing generic products at their time of launch. As a result, our gross margins associated with such products have been adversely impacted by competitive conditions. As we have continued to grow, we have focused on developing value-added differentiated products where we can compete on many factors in addition to price. Specifically, we have targeted injectable products where the form or packaging of the product can be enhanced to improve delivery, patient safety or end-user convenience and where generic competition is likely to be limited by product manufacturing complexity or lack of API supply. In addition, we may challenge proprietary product patents to seek first-to-market rights.

The development of generic injectable products is characterized by significant up-front costs, including costs associated with evaluating the patent landscape, developing products, sourcing API and manufacturing capability and obtaining regulatory approvals. As a result, we have made, and we expect to continue to make, substantial investments in product development. We expect that our overall level of product development activity in any

29

specific period may vary significantly based upon our business strategy to continue to identify and source new product opportunities. We anticipate our spending on product development activities will, over time, continue to increase, as we invest in additional opportunities arising from market consolidation and development activities at SCP, and we incur costs associated with patent-related litigation. Product development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 totaled approximately $20.3 million, $17.1 million and $12.8 million respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The most significant estimates in our consolidated financial statements are discussed below. Actual results could vary from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when our obligations to a customer are fulfilled relative to a specific product and all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectability is reasonably assured; and (iv) delivery has occurred. Delivery is deemed to have occurred upon customer receipt of product, upon fulfillment of acceptance terms, if any, and when no significant contractual obligations remain. Net sales reflect reductions of gross sales for estimated wholesaler chargebacks, estimated contractual allowances, and estimated early payment discounts. We provide for estimated returns at the time of sale based on historic product return experience. Subsequent adjustments to our prior year provisions and reserve requirements for chargebacks, allowances, discounts and returns have been less than 1% of total consolidated net revenue on an annual basis in each of the three fiscal years ended December 31, 2013.

In the case of new products for which the product introduction is not an extension of an existing line of product, where we determine that there are not products in a similar therapeutic category, or where we determine the new product has dissimilar characteristics with existing products, such that we cannot reliably estimate expected returns of the new product, we defer recognition of revenue until the right of return no longer exists or until we have developed sufficient historical experience to estimate sales returns.

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized in net revenue. Other shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

Revenue Recognition – Chargebacks

The majority of our products are distributed through independent pharmaceutical wholesalers. In accordance with industry practice, sales to wholesalers are transacted initially at wholesale list price. The wholesalers then generally sell to an end user, normally a hospital, alternative healthcare facility, or an independent pharmacy, at a lower price contractually established previously between the end user and Sagent.

When we record initially a sale to a wholesaler, the sale and resulting receivable are recorded at our list price. However, experience indicates that most of these selling prices will eventually be reduced to a lower, end-user contract price. Therefore, at the time of the sale, a contra asset is recorded for, and revenue is reduced by, the difference between the list price and the estimated average end-user contract price. This contra asset is calculated by product code, taking the expected number of outstanding wholesale units sold that will ultimately be sold under end-user contracts multiplied by the anticipated, weighted–average contract price. When the wholesaler ultimately sells the product, the wholesaler charges us, or issues a chargeback, for the difference between the list price and the end-user contract price and such chargeback is offset against the initial estimated contra asset. Periodically, we review the wholesale list prices for our products, and from time to time may reduce list prices based on market conditions or competitive pricing pressures. Reductions in the wholesale list price of our

30

products reduce both our gross sales and the revenue reduction recorded upon initial product sale, but do not change the end-user contract selling price.

The significant estimates inherent in the initial chargeback provision relate to wholesale units pending chargeback and to the end-user contract-selling price. We base the estimate for these factors on product-specific sales and internal chargeback processing experience, estimated wholesaler inventory stocking levels, current contract pricing and expectations for future contract pricing changes. Our chargeback provision is potentially impacted by a number of market conditions, including: competitive pricing, competitive products, and other changes impacting demand in both the distribution channel and with end users.

We rely on internal data, external data from our wholesaler customers and management estimates to estimate the amount of inventory in the channel subject to future chargeback. The amount of product in the channel is comprised of both product at the wholesaler and product that the wholesaler has sold, but not yet reported as end-user sales. Physical inventory in the channel is estimated by the evaluation of our monthly sales to the wholesalers and our knowledge of inventory levels and estimated inventory turnover at these wholesalers.

Our total chargeback accrual was $43.7 million and $24.3 million at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable. Our total chargeback expense was $300.8 million and $166.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our chargeback accrual and related chargeback expense increased in 2013 due to the introduction of new products with relatively high list prices, including zoledronic acid, and the impact of competitive pricing on products introduced before December 31, 2012. A 1% decrease in estimated end-user contract-selling prices would reduce net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013, by $0.3 million and a 1% increase in wholesale units pending chargeback for the year ended December 31, 2013, would reduce net revenue by $0.3 million.

Revenue Recognition – Cash Discounts

We offer cash discounts, approximating 2% of the gross sales price, as an incentive for prompt payment and occasionally offer greater discounts and extended payment terms in support of product launches or other promotional programs. Our wholesale customers typically pay within terms, and we account for cash discounts by reducing net sales and accounts receivable by the full amount of the discount offered at the time of sale. We consider payment performance and adjust the accrual to reflect actual experience.

Revenue Recognition – Sales Returns

Consistent with industry practice, our return policy permits customers to return products within a window of time before and after the expiration of product dating. We provide for product returns and other customer credits at the time of sale by applying historical experience factors. We provide specifically for known outstanding returns and credits. The effect of any changes in estimated returns is taken in the current period’s income.

For returns of established products, we determine our estimate of the sales return accrual primarily based on historical experience, but also consider other factors that could impact sales returns. These factors include levels of inventory in the distribution channel, estimated shelf life, timing of product returns relative to expiry, product recalls, product discontinuances, price changes of competitive products, and introductions of competitive new products.

Revenue Recognition – Contractual Allowances

Contractual allowances, generally rebates or administrative fees, are offered to certain wholesale customers, GPOs, and end-user customers, consistent with pharmaceutical industry practices. Settlement of rebates and fees may generally occur from one to five months from date of sale. We provide a provision for contractual allowances at the time of sale based on the historical relationship between sales and such allowances. Contractual allowances are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a reduction of revenues and as a current accrued liability.

31

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market value. Inventories consist of products currently approved for marketing and may include certain products pending regulatory approval. From time to time, we capitalize inventory costs associated with products prior to receiving regulatory approval based on our judgment of probable future commercial success and realizable value. Such judgment incorporates management’s knowledge and best judgment of where the product is in the regulatory review process, market conditions, competing products and economic expectations for the product post-approval relative to the risk of manufacturing the product prior to approval. If final regulatory approval for such products is denied or delayed, we may need to provide for and expense such inventory.

We establish reserves for our inventory to reflect situations in which the cost of the inventory is not expected to be recovered. In evaluating whether inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, management considers such factors as the amount of inventory on hand, estimated time required to sell such inventory, remaining shelf life and current expected market conditions, including level of competition. We record provisions for inventory to cost of goods sold.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as well as net operating loss and capital loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the financial statements in the period that includes the legislative enactment date.

In assessing the potential for realization of deferred tax assets and establishing valuation allowances, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We also consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income or losses, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon our history of aggregate tax losses over the past three years, we do not believe realization of these tax assets is more likely than not. As a result, full valuation allowances for the deferred tax assets were established.

Furthermore, even if we generate taxable income in future years, our ability to use our deferred tax assets, such as our net operating losses, to reduce future federal income tax liability may be limited as a result of previous or future changes in equity ownership of our company.

Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize compensation cost for all share-based payments (including employee stock options) at fair value. We use the straight-line attribution method to recognize share-based compensation expense over the vesting period of the award.

We measure and recognize stock based compensation expense for performance based options if the performance measures are considered probable of being achieved. We evaluate the probability of the achievement of the performance measures at each balance sheet date. If it is not probable that the performance measures will be achieved, any previously recognized compensation cost would be reversed.

We estimate the value of stock options on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that incorporates various assumptions. The risk-free rate of interest for the average contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The dividend yield is zero as we have not paid nor do we anticipate paying any dividends. For service-based awards, we use the “simplified method” described in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14 where the expected term of awards granted is based on the

32

midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term, as we do not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. For performance-based awards, we determine the expected term based on the anticipated achievement and exercise pattern of the underlying options. Our expected volatility is based on a weighted average of the historical volatility of similar companies’ stock and the historical volatility of our stock since our IPO. The weighted-average estimated values of employee stock option grants and rights granted under our 2007 Global Share Plan and 2011 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plans”) as well as the weighted-average assumptions that were used in calculating such values during the last three years were based on estimates at the date of grant as follows:

	Risk free interest rate			Expected life		Expected dividend yield			Expected volatility			Fair value at grant  date
2013		1.24	%		6 years		0	%		62	%	$	9.31
2012		1.05	%		6 years		0	%		61	%	$	10.67
2011		1.47	%		6 years		0	%		61	%	$	11.15

We have also granted performance based stock options with terms that allow the recipient to vest in a specific number of shares based upon the achievement of certain performance measures, as specified in the grants. Share-based compensation expense associated with these stock options is recognized over the requisite service period of the awards or the implied service period, if shorter.

While the assumptions used to calculate and account for share-based compensation awards represent management’s best estimates, these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if revisions are made to our underlying assumptions and estimates, our share-based compensation expense could vary significantly from period-to-period.

Valuation and Impairment of Marketable Securities

Our investments in available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses related to changes in the fair value of investments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, as reported in our consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of investments impact our net income (loss) only when such investments are sold or an other-than-temporary impairment is recognized. Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities are determined by specific identification of each security’s cost basis. We regularly review our investment portfolio to determine if any investment is other-than-temporarily impaired due to changes in credit risk or other potential valuation concerns, which would require us to record an impairment charge in the period any such determination is made. In making this judgment, we evaluate, among other things, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an investment is less than its cost, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and our intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the investment before recovery of the investment’s amortized cost basis. Our assessment on whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired or not could change in the future due to new developments or changes in assumptions related to any particular investment.

Product Development

Product development costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our internal product development efforts, acquired in-process research and development, as well as product development costs incurred in connection with our third-party collaboration efforts. Our third-party development collaborations typically provide for achievement-based milestones to be paid by us throughout the product development process, typically upon: (i) signing of the development agreement; (ii) manufacture of the submission batches used in conjunction with the filing of an ANDA with the FDA; (iii) filing of an ANDA with the FDA; and (iv) FDA approval. In addition, depending upon the nature of the product and the terms of our collaboration, we may also provide or pay for API and samples of the reference-listed drug.

33

Preapproval milestone payments made under contract research and development arrangements or product licensing arrangements prior to regulatory approval are expensed as a component of product development expense when the related milestone is achieved. Once the product receives regulatory approval, we record any subsequent milestone payments as an intangible asset to be amortized on a straight-line basis as a component of cost of sales over the related license period or the estimated life of the acquired product, which ranges from five years to eight years with a weighted-average of six years prior to the next renewal or extension as of December 31, 2013. We make the determination whether to capitalize or expense amounts related to the development of new products and technologies through agreements with third parties based on our ability to recover our cost in a reasonable period of time from the estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated pursuant to each agreement. Market, regulatory and legal factors, among other things, may affect the ability to realize projected cash flows that an agreement was initially expected to generate. We regularly monitor these factors and subject all capitalized costs to periodic impairment testing.

Intangible Assets

Certain amounts paid to third parties related to the development of new products and technologies, as described above, are capitalized and included in intangible assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Consolidations

The consolidated financial statements of Sagent include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On June 4, 2013, we acquired the remaining 50% equity interest in KSCP from our former joint venture partner. Prior to the SCP Acquisition, we accounted for our investment in KSCP using the equity method of accounting, as our interest in the entity provided for joint financial and operational control. Operating results of KSCP prior to the SCP Acquisition were reported on a one-month lag.

We account for investments in joint ventures, including Sagent Agila LLC and, prior to the SCP Acquisition, KSCP, under the equity method of accounting, as our interest in each entity provides for joint financial and operational control. Our equity in the net income (loss) of Sagent Agila LLC and, prior to the SCP Acquisition, KSCP, is included in the consolidated financial statements as equity in net income (loss) of joint ventures.

Goodwill

Goodwill is recognized as the excess cost of an acquired entity over the net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather tested for impairment on an annual basis and more often if circumstances require. Impairment losses are recognized whenever the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually on October 1.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

There are no new accounting pronouncements that have been adopted in 2013 or are currently approved but pending future adoption that will have a material impact on our financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

34

Adjusted Gross Profit

We use the non-GAAP financial measure “Adjusted Gross Profit” and corresponding ratios. We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit plus our share of the gross profit earned through our Sagent Agila joint venture which is included in the Equity in net (income) loss of joint ventures line on the consolidated statements of operations. We believe that Adjusted Gross Profit is relevant and useful supplemental information for our investors. Our management believes that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure, when considered together with our GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, provides a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting Sagent than could be obtained absent these disclosures. Management uses Adjusted Gross Profit and corresponding ratios to make operating and strategic decisions and evaluate our performance. We have disclosed this non-GAAP financial measure so that our investors have the same financial data that management uses with the intention of assisting you in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing our underlying performance. Our management believes that Adjusted Gross Profit provides a useful supplemental tool to consistently evaluate the profitability of our products that have profit sharing arrangements. The limitation of this measure is that it includes an item that does not have an impact on gross profit reported in accordance with GAAP. The best way that this limitation can be addressed is by using Adjusted Gross Profit in combination with our GAAP reported gross profit. Because Adjusted Gross Profit calculations may vary among other companies, the Adjusted Gross Profit figures presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Our use of Adjusted Gross Profit is not meant to and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, any GAAP financial measure. You should carefully evaluate the following tables reconciling Adjusted Gross Profit to our GAAP reported gross profit for the periods presented (dollars in thousands).

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA –

We use the non-GAAP financial measures “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” and corresponding growth ratios. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) less interest expense, net of interest income, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) less interest expense, net of interest income, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, the gain recorded on product rights acquired from our Sagent Agila joint venture, the gain recorded on our previously held equity interest in KSCP in connection with the acquisition of the remaining 50% equity interest in KSCP and the equity in net loss of our KSCP joint venture prior to the acquisition. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are relevant and useful supplemental information for our investors. Our management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, provides a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting Sagent than could be obtained absent these disclosures. Management uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and corresponding ratios to

35

make operating and strategic decisions and evaluate our performance. We have disclosed these non-GAAP financial measures so that our investors have the same financial data that management uses with the intention of assisting you in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing our underlying performance. Our management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental tools to evaluate the underlying operating performance of the company on an ongoing basis. The limitation of these measures is that they exclude items that have an impact on net income (loss). The best way that these limitations can be addressed is by using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in combination with our GAAP reported net income (loss). Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations may vary among other companies, the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA figures presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Our use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, any GAAP financial measure.

¹  Upon obtaining the controlling interest in the rights to Mesna and Acetylcysteine from our Sagent Agila joint venture in December 2013, we remeasured the previously held interest in these products to fair value, resulting in a gain of $1,700 reported as part of equity in net loss (income) of joint ventures in the consolidated statements of operations.

²  Upon obtaining the controlling interest in KSCP, we remeasured the previously held equity interest in KSCP to fair value, resulting in a gain of $2,936 reported as gain on previously held equity interest in the consolidated statements of operations. The gain includes $2,782 reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and previously recorded as currency translation adjustments.

³  Depreciation and amortization expense excludes $90, $506 and $465 of amortization in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to deferred financing fees, which is included within interest expense and other in our consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.

Net revenue: Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $244.8 million, an increase of $61.1 million, or 33%, as compared to $183.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The launch of 31 new codes or presentations of 12 products during 2013, including zoledronic acid vials at market formation, contributed $50.3 million of the net revenue increase in 2013. Net revenue for products launched before January 1, 2013 increased by $10.4 million, or 6%, to $194.2 million during 2013, due to the impact of annualizing sales and increased unit volumes. The increase was partially offset by lower volumes on certain products due primarily to reductions in demand driven by the abatement of market shortages and increased competitive pricing pressures.

Cost of sales: Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $167.2 million, an increase of $14.7 million, or 10%, as compared to $152.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue was 31.7% for the year ended December 31, 2013, and 16.9% for the year ended December 31, 2012. Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of net revenue was 32.8% for the year ended December 31, 2013, and 20.0% for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in both gross profit and Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of net revenue is primarily due to the introduction of higher margin products in the past twelve months, particularly zoledronic acid vials at market formation in March 2013, partially offset by $3.3 million of unabsorbed manufacturing costs at our SCP facility.

Product development: Product development expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $20.3 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 18%, as compared to $17.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in product development expense was primarily due to increased milestone expense for

37

projects in our pipeline, increased patent-related legal expenses and $0.7 million of costs associated with development activities at SCP, which were included as part of the equity in net loss (income) of joint ventures in 2012.

As of December 31, 2013, our new product pipeline included 37 products represented by 62 ANDAs which we had filed, or licensed rights to, that were under review by the FDA and two products represented by seven ANDAs that have been recently approved and were pending commercial launch. We also had an additional 24 products represented by 41 ANDAs under initial development at December 31, 2013.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013, totaled $36.2 million, an increase of $6.1 million, or 20%, as compared to $30.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was primarily due to increases in employee-related costs and $1.8 million of costs associated with our SCP facility, which were included as part of the equity in net loss (income) of joint ventures in 2012. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net revenue was 15% and 16% for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Management reorganization: Restructuring expenses, primarily severance related charges in connection with eliminated positions, for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $0.7 million. There were no such restructuring expenses in the year ended December 31, 2013.

Equity in net (income) loss of joint ventures: Equity in net income of joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $2.4 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 79%, as compared to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase was primarily due to a non-cash accounting gain on our acquisition of two products from Sagent Agila LLC and the inclusion of only six months of equity losses of our KSCP joint venture, prior to the SCP Acquisition, partially offset by reduced income generated by the Sagent Agila joint venture, principally from rocuronium, which was in short supply during the second half of 2012. Included in this amount are the following (amounts in thousands of dollars):

	Year Ended December 31,
	2013			2012
Sagent Agila LLC – Earnings directly related to the sale of product	$	(2,777	)	$	(5,685	)
Sagent Agila LLC – Product development costs		243			534
Sagent Agila LLC – Gain on sale of products		(1,686	)		—
Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co – net loss		1,825			3,814
Equity in net (income) loss of joint ventures	$	(2,395	)	$	(1,337	)

Termination fee: Termination fee for 2013 represents the $5.0 million one-time termination fee received in connection with our agreement in March 2013 to terminate our Manufacturing and Supply Agreement with Actavis effective December 31, 2014.

Gain on previously held equity interest: As a result of the SCP Acquisition, our previously held equity interest was remeasured to fair value, resulting in a gain of $2.9 million reported as gain on previously held equity interest in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The gain includes $2.8 million reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income, and previously recorded as currency translation adjustments.

Interest expense: Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $0.9 million, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 41%, as compared to $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease was principally due to $1.1 million of deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the early termination and partial extinguishment of our former senior secured revolving and term loan credit facilities in February 2012, partially offset by interest costs on debt assumed as part of our acquisition of SCP in June 2013. On January 2, 2014, we repaid our outstanding SCP loans in full.

38

Provision for income taxes: We have generated tax losses since inception and as a result, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets resulting in no tax benefits being recorded on any losses. The exercise of the overallotment option as part of our initial public offering in April 2011 triggered an ownership change as defined by Section 382 of the US Internal Revenue Code. This change will limit the amount of our net operating loss carryforwards which we could utilize to offset future taxable income. As none of our current net operating loss carryforwards expire before 2027, we expect that despite the use limitations triggered by our IPO, we will have a reasonable opportunity to utilize all of these loss carryforwards before they expire, but such loss carryforwards will be usable only to the extent that we generate sufficient taxable income.

Our provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013, was $0.9 million, representing the alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) payable in the United States for 2013. As we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, our AMT payable is recorded as tax expense in 2013. Of the total tax expense, $0.7 million related to the fourth quarter correction of AMT expense that was not recorded during the first three quarters of 2013.

Net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share: The net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $29.6 million. The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $16.8 million. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share increased by $1.59. The increase in diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is due to the following factors:

Diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2012	$	(0.60	)
Increase in earnings		1.55
Increase in diluted common shares outstanding		0.04
Diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2013	$	0.99

Net revenue: Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $183.6 million, an increase of $31.2 million, or 20%, as compared to $152.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The launch of 37 new codes or presentations of 16 products during 2012, including oxaliplatin and calcium leucovorin, contributed $20.8 million of the net revenue increase in 2012. Net revenue for products launched before January 1, 2012 increased by $10.4 million, or 7%, to $162.8 million during 2012, due to the impact of annualizing sales and increased unit volumes, especially on our rocuronium products, which were in short supply during the second half of 2012. These milestones were partially offset by lower pricing, especially on our heparin products and certain products launched initially in the third quarter of 2011.

Cost of sales: Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $152.5 million, an increase of $18.9 million, or 14%, as compared to $133.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue was 16.9% for the year ended December 31, 2012, and 12.3% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net revenue was driven primarily by pricing on products initially launched in 2012 and the sale of $1.4 million of heparin previously reserved as excess inventories, partially offset by reduced pricing on products initially launched in the third quarter of 2011. Gross profit in 2011 also included a $4.2 million reserve for certain excess heparin inventories. Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of net revenue was 20.0% for the year ended December 31, 2012, and 13.7% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of net revenue was driven primarily by the sale of rocuronium, of which there was a shortage during the second half of 2012 and products launched in 2012, partially offset by reduced pricing on products initially launched in the third quarter of 2011.

Product development: Product development expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $17.1 million, an increase of $4.4 million, or 34%, as compared to $12.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in product development expense was primarily due to the timing of milestone payments and FDA filing fees, including new, one-time backlog fees totaling $0.8 million, which were incurred with respect to all ANDAs pending FDA approval.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012, totaled $30.1 million, an increase of $4.9 million, or 20%, as compared to $25.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was primarily due to payroll-related costs, primarily stock compensation expense. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net revenue was 16% and 17% for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Management reorganization: Restructuring expenses, primarily severance related charges in connection with eliminated positions, for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $0.7 million. There were no such restructuring expenses in the year ended December 31, 2011.

Equity in net (income) loss of joint ventures: Equity in net income of joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $1.3 million, an increase of $3.9 million, or 153%, as compared to a loss of $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to increased income generated by the Sagent Agila joint venture, principally from rocuronium, which was in short supply during the second half of the year, partially offset by losses of our KSCP joint venture. Included in this amount are the following (amounts in thousands of dollars):

	Year Ended December 31,
	2012			2011
Sagent Agila LLC – Earnings directly related to the sale of product	$	(5,685	)	$	(2,091	)

Equity in net (income) loss of joint ventures	$	(1,337	)	$	2,531

Interest expense: Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $1.6 million, a decrease of $2.6 million, or 63%, as compared to $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease was principally due to lower borrowings during 2012, partially offset by $0.8 million of fees and the write-off of $0.4 million of deferred financing costs associated with the early termination and partial extinguishment of our senior secured revolving and term loan credit facilities in February 2012. We did not draw against our Silicon Valley Bank revolving loan facility following our entry into this agreement in February 2012. Excluding fees associated with the early termination and partial extinguishment of our credit facilities, interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $0.4 million.

Provision for income taxes: We have generated tax losses since inception and as a result, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets resulting in no tax benefits being recorded on any losses. The exercise of the overallotment option as part of our initial public offering in April 2011 triggered an ownership change as defined by Section 382 of the US Internal Revenue Code.

Net loss and net loss per common share: The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $16.8 million. The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $26.4 million. Net loss per common share decreased by $0.71, or 54%. The decrease in net loss per common share is due to the following factors:

Basic and diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2011	$	(1.31	)
Increase in common shares outstanding		0.37
Decrease in net loss		0.34
Basic and diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2012	$	(0.60	)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Funding Requirements

Our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including the continued commercial success of our existing products, launching the 37 products that are represented by our 62 ANDAs that have been recently approved and are pending commercial launch or are pending approval by the FDA as of December 31, 2013, successfully identifying and sourcing other new product opportunities, manufacturing products at our wholly-owned Chinese manufacturing facility, and business development activity.

Based on our existing business plan, we expect that cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $156.1 million as of December 31, 2013, together with borrowings available under our SVB revolving loan facility, will be sufficient to fund our planned operations, including the continued development of our product pipeline, the further payments required in respect of the SCP Acquisition and potential capital expansion at our Chinese facility, for at least the next 12 months. However, we may require additional funds in the event that we change our business plan, pursue additional strategic transactions, including the acquisition of businesses or products, or encounter unexpected developments, including unforeseen competitive conditions within our product markets, changes in the general economic climate, changes in the regulatory environment, the loss of or negative developments affecting key relationships with suppliers, group purchasing organizations or end-user customers or other unexpected developments that may have a material effect on the cash flows or results of operations of our business.

To the extent our capital resources are insufficient to meet our future capital requirements, we will need to finance our future cash needs through public or private equity offerings or debt financings, which may not be

41

available to us on terms we consider acceptable or at all. Our ability to raise additional funding, if necessary, is subject to a variety of factors that we cannot predict with certainty, including our future results of operations, our relative levels of debt and equity, the volatility and overall condition of the capital markets and the market prices of our securities. Debt financing, if available, may only be available to us on less favorable terms than our existing SVB revolving loan facility, including higher interest rates or greater exposure to interest rate risk. In addition, the terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of our stockholders.

If additional funding is not available, we may be required to terminate, significantly modify or delay the development or commercialization of new products and may not be able to achieve the manufacturing potential of our SCP facility. We may elect to raise additional funds even before we need them if we believe that the conditions for raising capital are favorable.

Cash Flows

Overview

On December 31, 2013, cash, cash equivalents and short term investments totaled $156.1 million, working capital totaled $172.3 million and our current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) was approximately 3.7 to 1.0.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Operating activities: Net cash provided by operating activities was $49.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $20.1 million and $20.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in cash provided by operations in 2013 was primarily due to the $41.4 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA. The decrease in the use of cash for operating activities in 2012 primarily relates to improvements in our Adjusted EBITDA, which was largely offset by increased investment in working capital.

Investing activities: Net cash used in investing activities was $97.2 million in 2013, compared to $32.6 million provided by investing activities in 2012 and $79.6 million used in investing activities in 2011. The change in cash flows in 2013 is primarily related to the investment of $70.6 million of proceeds from our September 2013 secondary stock offering in short-term available-for-sale securities and $13.0 million paid related to the SCP Acquisition and product acquisitions from Sagent Agila during the year. The cash provided by investing activities in 2012 primarily relates to the net sale of short-term investments of $36.4 million in 2012 to repay in full all amounts due under our former term loan and senior secured revolving credit facilities in February 2012. Cash used in investing activities in 2011 is primarily due to the investment of $74.8 million of the proceeds from our April 2011 IPO in short-term available-for-sale securities.

Financing activities: Net cash provided by financing activities was $62.3 million in 2013, compared to $37.0 million used in financing activities in 2012 and $117.9 million provided by financing activities in 2011. The change in cash flows in 2013 is primarily related to the $70.6 million of net proceeds received from our September 2013 secondary stock offering, partially offset by the repayment of $9.0 million of borrowings under the ABC Loans in November 2013, as compared to $37.1 million used to repay in full all amounts due under our former term loan and senior secured revolving credit facilities in February 2012. Cash provided by financing activities in 2011 primarily relates to $101.6 million from the issuance of common shares, including $95.6 million from our initial public offering, and $15.0 million from our term loan credit facility.

Credit facilities

Until February 2012, we maintained two active credit facilities; a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and a Term Loan Credit Facility, and in February 2012, we repaid all of our outstanding borrowings and terminated both facilities. We replaced these facilities with a new asset based revolving loan facility with Silicon Valley

42

Bank (“SVB”). In June 2013, our SCP subsidiary had two loan facilities with the Agricultural Bank of China (“ABC”) that existed prior to the SCP Acquisition. In September 2013, we entered into a Second Loan Modification agreement with SVB. Refer below for a description of our facilities with SVB, ABC, and the facilities that were terminated in February 2012.

Asset based revolving loan facility

On February 13, 2012, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with SVB (the “SVB Agreement”). The SVB Agreement provides for a $40.0 million asset based revolving loan facility, with availability determined by a borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and inventory and subject to certain conditions precedent specified in the SVB Agreement. The SVB Agreement matures on February 13, 2016, at which time all outstanding amounts will become due and payable. Borrowings under the SVB Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including funding working capital. Amounts drawn bear an interest rate equal to, at our option, either a Eurodollar rate plus 2.50% per annum or an alternative base rate plus 1.50% per annum. We also pay a commitment fee on undrawn amounts equal to 0.30% per annum. During the continuance of an event of default, at SVB’s option, all obligations will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 5.00% per annum above the otherwise applicable rate.

Loans under the SVB Agreement are secured by substantially all of our and our principal domestic operating subsidiary’s assets, other than our equity interests in our joint ventures and certain other limited exceptions.

The SVB Agreement contains various customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants restrict our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create or permit to exist liens, make certain investments, dividends and other payments in respect of capital stock, sell assets or otherwise dispose of our property, change our lines of business, or enter into a merger or acquisition, in each case, subject to thresholds and exceptions as set forth in the SVB Agreement. The financial covenants in the original SVB Agreement are limited to maintenance of a minimum adjusted quick ratio and a minimum free cash flow. The SVB Agreement also contains customary events of default, including non-payment of principal, interest and other fees after stated grace periods, violations of covenants, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, certain bankruptcy and liquidation events, certain material judgments and attachment events, cross-default to other debt in excess of a specified amount and material agreements, failure to maintain certain material governmental approvals, and actual or asserted invalidity of subordination terms, guarantees and collateral, in each case, subject to grace periods, thresholds and exceptions as set forth in the SVB Agreement.

In September 2013, we entered into the Second Loan Modification Agreement (the “Second Modification Agreement”) to the SVB Agreement. The Second Modification Agreement makes certain amendments to the SVB Agreement, including: modifying the calculation methodology of the borrowing base that is used to determine our borrowing availability; eliminating the covenant to maintain a specified level of free cash flow in quarters where we maintain eligible cash balances of $30.0 million or greater and modifying the covenant for the adjusted quick ratio to be tested at the end of each month; and providing us additional flexibility to make certain investments. The Second Modification Agreement did not amend the term of the SVB Agreement, the maximum availability under the SVB Agreement, or the interest rate applicable to amounts drawn under the SVB Agreement.

As of December 31, 2013, there were no borrowings outstanding under our SVB revolving loan facility, and we were in compliance with all covenants under this loan agreement. Total availability under our SVB revolving loan facility was $37.2 million at December 31, 2013, which is subject to adjustment on a monthly basis under our borrowing base calculation.

Chinese loan facilities

SCP had outstanding debt obligations with ABC at the time of the SCP Acquisition. SCP originally entered into two loan contracts with ABC for RMB 83.0 million ($13.6 million) and RMB 37.0 million ($6.1 million) in

43

August 2010 and June 2011, respectively (the “ABC Loans”). In November 2013, we repaid RMB 55.0 million ($9.0 million) of the then outstanding balance. At December 31, 2013, RMB 63.0 million ($10.3 million) of the original loan remains outstanding, and is subject to a repayment schedule, with all amounts due and payable by August 2015. The ABC Loans were used for the construction of the SCP facility and funding of the ongoing operations of SCP up to the date of the SCP Acquisition. Amounts outstanding under the ABC Loans bear an interest rate equal to the benchmark lending interest rate published by the People’s Bank of China. During the term of the loan, the rate is subject to adjustment every three months. The ABC Loans are secured by the property, plant and equipment of SCP. The ABC Loans contain various covenants, including covenants that restrict SCP’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, provide guarantees, pledge or incur liens on assets, enter into merger, consolidation or acquisition transactions, or transfer assets. In addition, the ABC Loans contain financial covenants that require SCP to achieve specified minimum revenue levels and to maintain a specified liability to assets ratio. As of December 31, 2013, the interest rate for the ABC Loans was 6.00%.

On January 2, 2014, we repaid in full all outstanding amounts (RMB 63.0 million, $10.3 million) under the ABC Loans, and the loan contracts were terminated.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On June 16, 2009, our principal operating subsidiary entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility with Midcap Financial, LLC. In December 2010, our principal operating subsidiary entered into an amendment to the senior secured revolving credit facility pursuant to which it is able to borrow up to $25.0 million in revolving loans, subject to borrowing availability. On March 8, 2011, our principal operating subsidiary further amended the senior secured revolving credit facility to, among other things, permit the entry into our new $15.0 million term loan credit facility, which we describe below, and the incurrence of debt and granting of liens thereunder.

Amounts drawn under the senior secured revolving credit facility bear an interest rate equal to either an adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a margin of 5.50%, or an alternate base rate plus a margin of 4.50%.

The interest rate on the senior secured revolving credit facility was 8.50% at December 31, 2011.

Term Loan Credit Facility

On March 8, 2011, our principal operating subsidiary entered into a $15.0 million term loan credit facility with Midcap Funding III, LLC, as agent and a lender, and the other financial institutions party thereto, as lenders. We borrowed the full amount of the facility at that time, and no further borrowings or re-borrowings are permitted. Loans outstanding under the term loan credit facility bear interest at LIBOR, plus a margin of 9.0%, subject to a 3.0% LIBOR floor. Equal monthly amortization payments in respect of the term loan are payable beginning September 1, 2011. At December 31, 2011, we had $12.3 million outstanding under our Term Loan Credit Facility.

⁽¹⁾  We had no material purchase commitments, individually or in the aggregate, under our manufacturing and supply agreements.

⁽²⁾ No amounts were drawn under the SVB Agreement at December 31, 2013. Includes amounts due under the ABC Loans assuming period-end foreign exchange rates. We repaid in full the ABC Loans on January 2, 2014.

⁽³⁾ Includes annual minimum lease payments related to non-cancelable operating leases.

⁽⁴⁾ Includes management’s estimate for contingent potential milestone payments and fees pursuant to strategic business agreements for the development and marketing of finished dosage form pharmaceutical products assuming all contingent milestone payments occur. Does not include contingent royalty payments, which are dependent on the introduction of new products.

⁽⁵⁾ Includes remaining purchase consideration payable under the SCP share purchase agreement.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At December 31, 2013, we were not party to any off-balance sheet arrangements, nor have we created any special-purpose or off-balance sheet entities for the purpose of raising capital, incurring debt or operating our business. With the exception of operating leases, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or relationships with entities that are not consolidated into or disclosed on our financial statements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that our sales or operating results have been materially impacted by inflation during the periods presented in our financial statements. There can be no assurance, however, that our sales or operating results will not be impacted by inflation in the future.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Our market risks relate primarily to changes in interest rates, and following the SCP Acquisition, currency rate fluctuations between the Chinese Renminbi and US dollar.

The revolving loan facility under the SVB Agreement bears floating interest rates that are tied to LIBOR and an alternate base rate, and therefore, our statements of operations and our cash flows will be exposed to changes in interest rates. As we had no borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2013, there is no impact related to potential changes in the LIBOR rate on our interest expense at December 31, 2013. Our ABC Loans bear floating interest rates that are tied to the benchmark lending interest rate published by the People’s Bank of China, and therefore

45

our statements of operations and our cash flows are exposed to changes in interest and foreign exchange rates. Based on the amounts outstanding at December 31, 2013, a one percentage point increase in the benchmark lending rate published by the People’s Bank of China would increase our ongoing interest expense by $0.1 million per year, and a 10% strengthening of the Chinese Renminbi relative to the US dollar, would increase our ongoing interest expense by $0.1 million per year. We historically have not engaged in hedging activities related to our interest rate or foreign exchange risks. On January 2, 2014, we repaid in full the then-outstanding balance of the ABC Loans, totaling RMB 63.0 million ($10.3 million).

At December 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $42.3 million and $113.8 million, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents are held primarily in cash and money market funds, and our short-term investments are held primarily in corporate debt securities and commercial paper. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value of our investment portfolio as a result of changes in interest rates.

We generally record sales in U.S. dollars and pay our expenses in the local currency of the Sagent entity that incurs the expense, either U.S. dollars or Chinese Renminbi. Substantially all of our business partners that supply us with API, product development services and finished product manufacturing are located in a number of foreign jurisdictions, and we believe those business partners generally incur their respective operating expenses in local currencies. As a result, both we and our business partners may be exposed to currency rate fluctuations and experience an effective increase in operating expenses in the event local currencies appreciate against the U.S. dollar. In this event, the cost of manufacturing product from our SCP facility may increase or such business partners may elect to stop providing us with these services or attempt to pass these increased costs back to us through increased prices for product development services, API sourcing or finished products that they supply to us. Historically we have not used derivatives to protect against adverse movements in currency rates.

We do not have any foreign currency or any other material derivative financial instruments.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Nature of Operations

Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Sagent”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a specialty pharmaceutical company that develops, sources, manufactures and markets pharmaceutical products, principally injectable-based generic equivalents to branded products. We completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) on April 26, 2011. In connection with our IPO, we incorporated (the “Reincorporation”) in Delaware as Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Prior to the Reincorporation, we were a Cayman Islands company, and our corporate name was Sagent Holding Co. (“Sagent Holding”). Our products are typically sold to pharmaceutical wholesale companies which then distribute the products to end-user hospitals, long-term care facilities, alternate care sites, and clinics. The injectable pharmaceutical marketplace is comprised of end users who have relationships with group purchasing organizations (GPOs) or specialty distributors that focus on a particular therapeutic class. GPOs enter into product purchasing agreements with Sagent and other pharmaceutical suppliers for products in an effort to secure favorable drug pricing on behalf of their end-user members.

We are organized as a single reportable segment comprised of operations which develop, source, manufacture and market generic injectable products for sale in the United States, deriving a significant portion of our revenues from a single class of pharmaceutical wholesale customers within the United States.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

The consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On June 4, 2013, we acquired the remaining 50% equity interest in Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (“KSCP”) from our former joint venture partner (the “SCP Acquisition”), and accordingly, the consolidated financial statements since that date include KSCP as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Prior to the SCP Acquisition, we accounted for our investment in KSCP using the equity method of accounting, as our interest in the entity provided for joint financial and operational control, and operating results of KSCP were reported on a one-month lag. In August 2013, we formally changed the name of this entity to Sagent (China) Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (“SCP”).

Sagent Agila LLC (“Sagent Agila”) is a joint venture incorporated in Wyoming with Strides Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Strides Arcolab International Limited (“Strides”), established in January 2007 with the principal business of development, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of generic pharmaceutical products to the U.S. market. In December 2013, Mylan Inc. (“Mylan”) acquired Strides’ Agila Specialities Pvt. Ltd., subsidiary (“Agila”), including Strides’ ownership share of the Sagent Agila joint venture.

We account for our 50% interest in Sagent Agila under the equity method of accounting as our interest in the entity provides for joint financial and operational control. Sagent’s equity in the net income (loss) of Sagent Agila is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as equity in net income (loss) of joint ventures.

Reincorporation

In connection with our 2011 IPO and concurrent with our Reincorporation in Delaware, the holders of our preferred stock exchanged each of their outstanding shares of preferred stock for 0.12759 shares of our common stock.

52

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currencies

We translate the results of operations of our foreign subsidiary using average exchange rates during each period, whereas balance sheet accounts are translated using exchange rates at the end of each period. We record currency translation adjustments as a component of equity. Transaction gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other in the statements of operations and were not significant for any of the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents and other current monetary assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid money market instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. These amounts are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. At December 31, 2013, cash equivalents were deposited in financial institutions and consisted of immediately available fund balances. The majority of our funds at December 31, 2013 were maintained at two stable financial institutions, each in an amount in excess of federally insured limits. This represents a concentration of credit risk. We have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents to date.

Cash collateral pledged under various lease agreements and cash restricted by financing agreements is classified as restricted cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as our ability to withdraw the funds is contractually limited.

Financial Instruments

We consider all highly liquid money market investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The fair values of these investments approximate their carrying values. Investments with original maturities of greater than three months and remaining maturities of less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Investments with maturities beyond one year are classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. All cash equivalents and short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale and realized gains and losses are recorded using the specific identification method. Changes in market value, excluding other-than-temporary impairments, are reflected in other comprehensive income (“OCI”).

Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. Fair value is calculated based on publicly available market information or other estimates determined by management. We employ a systematic methodology on a quarterly basis that considers available quantitative and qualitative evidence in evaluating potential impairment of our investments. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, we evaluate, among other factors, general market conditions, credit quality of debt instrument issuers, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost, and for equity securities, our intent and ability to hold, or plans to sell, the investment. For fixed income securities, we also evaluate whether we have plans to sell the security or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery.

53

We also consider specific adverse conditions related to the financial health of and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, changes in technology, and operational and financing cash flow factors. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded to other expense and a new cost basis in the investment is established.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market value. Inventories consist of products currently approved for marketing and may include certain products pending regulatory approval. From time to time, we capitalize inventory costs associated with products prior to receiving regulatory approval based on our judgment of probable future commercial success and realizable value. Such judgment incorporates management’s knowledge and best judgment of where the product is in the regulatory review process, market conditions, competing products and economic expectations for the product post-approval relative to the risk of manufacturing the product prior to approval. If final regulatory approval for such products is denied or delayed, we may need to reserve for and expense such inventory.

We establish reserves for inventory to reflect situations in which the cost of the inventory is not expected to be recovered. In evaluating whether inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, management considers such factors as the amount of inventory on hand, estimated time required to sell such inventory, remaining shelf life and current expected market conditions, including level of competition. We record provisions for inventory to cost of goods sold.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed when incurred, while expenditures for refurbishments and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Provisions for depreciation are computed for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset and for leasehold improvements over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the related asset or the term of the related lease as follows:

Land and land improvements	Remaining term of Chinese land use right (June 2057)
Building and improvements	5 to 40 years or remaining term of lease
Machinery, equipment, furniture, and fixtures	3 to 10 years

Property, plant and equipment that is purchased or constructed which requires a period of time before the assets are ready for their intended use are accounted for as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is recorded at acquisition cost, including installation costs and associated interest costs. Construction-in-progress is transferred to specific property, plant and equipment accounts and commences depreciation when these assets are ready for their intended use. The capitalization of interest costs commences when expenditures for the asset have been made, activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use are in progress and interest cost is being incurred. The capitalization period ends when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs related to the issuance of debt are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related debt instrument, which approximates the effective interest method. We capitalized deferred financing costs of $28 and $284 in 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to our SVB revolving loan facility and our former senior secured revolving credit facility and term loan credit facility. Deferred financing costs are recorded within Other Assets on our consolidated balance sheets, and totaled $206 and $268 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

54

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate long-lived assets, including intangible assets with definite lives, for impairment whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may no longer be recoverable. An evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the carrying values of the assets to projected future undiscounted cash flows, in addition to other quantitative and qualitative analyses. Judgments made by management related to the expected useful lives of long-lived assets and the ability to realize undiscounted cash flows in excess of the carrying amounts of such assets are affected by factors such as changes in economic conditions and changes in operating performance. Upon indication that the carrying values of such assets may not be recoverable, we recognize an impairment loss as a charge against current operations. We recorded an impairment charge within cost of sales of $44 related to one product license right in the year ended December 31, 2013. No impairment charges were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2012 or 2011.

Product Development Agreements

Product development costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our internal product development efforts and acquired in-process research and development, as well as product development costs incurred in connection with our third-party collaboration efforts. Non-refundable milestone payments made under contract research and development arrangements or product licensing arrangements prior to regulatory approval may be deferred and are expensed as the related services are delivered and the milestone is achieved. If we determine that it is no longer probable that the product will be pursued, any related capitalized amount is expensed in the current period.

Once a product receives regulatory approval, we record any subsequent milestone payments as an intangible asset to be amortized on a straight-line basis as a component of cost of sales over the related license period or the estimated life of the acquired product. At December 31, 2013, the amortization period for intangible assets arising from approved products ranges from five to eight years with a weighted-average period prior to the next renewal or extension of six years. We make the determination whether to capitalize or expense amounts related to the development of new products and technologies through agreements with third parties based on our ability to recover our cost in a reasonable period of time from the estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated pursuant to each agreement. Market, regulatory, and legal factors, among other things, may affect the realizability of the projected cash flows that an agreement was initially expected to generate. We regularly monitor these factors and subject capitalized costs to periodic impairment testing.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is recognized as the excess of fair value of consideration transferred to acquire an entity over the fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather tested for impairment on an annual basis and more often if circumstances require. We assess goodwill impairment risk by first performing a qualitative review of entity-specific, industry, market and general economic factors for our reporting unit. If significant potential goodwill impairment risk exists, we apply a two-step quantitative test. Impairment losses are recognized whenever the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually on October 1. No impairment of goodwill was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2013.

Certain amounts paid to third parties that are capitalized related to the development of new products and technologies are included within intangible assets. We determine the estimated fair values of certain intangible assets with definitive lives utilizing valuations performed by management at the time of their acquisition, based on anticipated future cash flow activity.

We test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by first performing a qualitative review by assessing events and circumstances that could affect the fair value or carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. If significant potential impairment risk exists for a specific non-amortizable intangible asset, we quantitatively

55

test for impairment by comparing the fair value of each intangible asset with its carrying value. Fair value of non-amortizable intangible assets is determined using planned growth rates, market-based discount rates and estimates of royalty rates. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value, the intangible asset is considered impaired and is reduced to its estimated fair value.

Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and evaluated for impairment as long-lived assets.

Acquired In-Process Research and Development

The fair value of in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) projects acquired in a business combination are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until the underlying project receives regulatory approval, at which point the intangible asset will be accounted for as a definite-lived intangible asset, or discontinuation, at which point the intangible asset will be written off. Development costs incurred after the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Indefinite- and definite-lived assets are subject to impairment reviews as discussed previously.

Advertising and Promotion Expense

All advertising and promotion costs are expensed as selling, general, and administrative expenses when incurred. Total direct advertising and promotion expense incurred was $766, $683, and $679 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the financial statements in the period that includes the legislative enactment date. We recognize the financial statement effects of a tax position only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination and recognize any interest and penalties accrued in relation to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. We establish valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the realization of those deferred tax assets will not occur.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We also consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income or losses, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon our history of aggregate tax losses over the past three years, we do not believe realization of these tax assets is more likely than not. As such, full valuation allowances for the deferred tax assets were established.

Revenue Recognition – General

We recognize revenue when our obligations to a customer are fulfilled relative to a specific product and all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectability is reasonably assured; and (iv) delivery has occurred. Delivery is deemed to have occurred upon customer receipt of product, upon fulfillment of acceptance terms, if any, and when no significant contractual obligations remain. Net sales reflect reductions of gross sales for estimated wholesaler chargebacks, estimated contractual allowances, and estimated early payment discounts. We provide for estimated returns at the time of sale based on historic product return experience.

56

In the case of new products for which the product introduction is not an extension of an existing line of product, where we determine that there are not products in a similar therapeutic category, or where we determine the new product has dissimilar characteristics with existing products, such that we cannot reliably estimate expected returns of the new product, we defer recognition of revenue until the right of return no longer exists or until we have developed sufficient historical experience to estimate sales returns.

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized in net revenue. Other shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

Revenue Recognition – Chargebacks

The majority of our products are distributed through independent pharmaceutical wholesalers. In accordance with industry practice, sales to wholesalers are initially transacted at wholesale list price. The wholesalers then generally sell to an end user, normally a hospital, alternative healthcare facility, or an independent pharmacy, at a lower price previously contractually established between the end user and Sagent.

When we initially record a sale to a wholesaler, the sale and resulting receivable are recorded at our list price. However, experience indicates that most of these selling prices will eventually be reduced to a lower, end-user contract price. Therefore, at the time of the sale, a contra asset is recorded for, and revenue is reduced by, the difference between the list price and the estimated average end-user contract price. This contra asset is calculated by product code, taking the expected number of outstanding wholesale units sold that will ultimately be sold under end-user contracts multiplied by the anticipated, weighted-average contract price. When the wholesaler ultimately sells the product, the wholesaler charges us, or issues a chargeback, for the difference between the list price and the end-user contract price and such chargeback is offset against the initial estimated contra asset. Periodically, we review the wholesale list prices for our products, and from time to time may reduce list prices based on market conditions or competitive pricing pressures. Reductions in the wholesale list price of our products reduce both our gross sales and the revenue reduction recorded upon initial product sale, but do not change the end-user contract selling price.

The significant estimates inherent in the initial chargeback provision relate to wholesale units pending chargeback and to the ultimate end-user contract-selling price. We base the estimate for these factors on product-specific sales and internal chargeback processing experience, estimated wholesaler inventory stocking levels, current contract pricing and our expectation for future contract pricing changes. Our chargeback provision is potentially impacted by a number of market conditions, including: competitive pricing, competitive products, and other changes impacting demand in both the distribution channel and end users.

We rely on internal data, external data from our wholesaler customers, and management estimates to estimate the amount of inventory in the channel subject to future chargeback. The amount of product in the channel is comprised of both product at the wholesaler and product that the wholesaler has sold, but not yet reported as end-user sales. Physical inventory in the channel is estimated by the evaluation of our monthly sales to the wholesalers and our knowledge of inventory levels and estimated inventory turnover at these wholesalers.

Our total chargeback accrual was $43,682 and $24,265 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable. Our total chargeback expense was $300,835, $166,051 and $167,521 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Revenue Recognition – Cash Discounts

We offer cash discounts, approximating 2% of the gross sales price, as an incentive for prompt payment and occasionally offer greater discounts and extended payment terms in support of product launches or other promotional programs. Our wholesale customers typically pay within terms, and we account for cash discounts by reducing net sales and accounts receivable by the full amount of the discount offered at the time of sale. We consider payment performance and adjust the accrual to reflect actual experience.

57

Our total accrual for cash discounts was $2,414 and $1,373 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable.

Revenue Recognition – Sales Returns

Consistent with industry practice, our return policy permits customers to return products within a window of time before and after the expiration of product dating. We provide for product returns and other customer credits at the time of sale by applying historical experience factors. We provide specifically for known outstanding returns and credits. The effect of any changes in estimated returns is taken in the current period’s income.

For returns of established products, we determine our estimate of the sales return accrual primarily based on historical experience, but also consider other factors that could impact sales returns. These factors include levels of inventory in the distribution channel, estimated shelf life, product recalls, timing of product returns relative to expiry, product discontinuances, price changes of competitive products, and introductions of competitive new products.

Our total accrual for returns and credits was $4,895 and $3,262 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable.

Revenue Recognition – Contractual Allowances

Contractual allowances, generally rebates or administrative fees, are offered to certain wholesale customers, GPOs, and end-user customers, consistent with pharmaceutical industry practices. Settlement of rebates and fees may generally occur from one to five months from date of sale. We provide a provision for contractual allowances at the time of sale based on the historical relationship between sales and such allowances. Contractual allowances are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a reduction of revenues and as a current accrued liability.

Stock Based Compensation

We recognize compensation cost for all share-based payments (including employee stock options) at fair value. We use the straight-line attribution method to recognize stock based compensation expense over the vesting period of the award. Options currently granted generally expire ten years from the grant date and vest ratably over a four-year period.

Stock based compensation expense for performance based options is measured and recognized if the performance measures are considered probable of being achieved. We evaluate the probability of the achievement of the performance measures at each balance sheet date. If it is not probable that the performance measures will be achieved, any previously recognized compensation cost would be reversed.

Stock based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is measured and recognized at fair value on a periodic basis.

We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of options granted under our equity incentive plans and rights to acquire stock granted under the stock participation plan. Stock-based compensation expense was $5,293, $5,552 and $2,545 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Note 2. Acquisitions:

Remaining equity interest of SCP

On April 30, 2013, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Chengdu Kanghong Pharmaceuticals (Group) Co. Ltd. (“CKT”) to acquire CKT’s 50% equity interest in KSCP for $25,000, payable in installments through September 2015. The SCP Acquisition closed on June 4, 2013, following approval by the Chengdu Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone Bureau of Investment Services. Concurrent with the closing of the SCP Acquisition, we paid $10,000 of the aggregate purchase consideration, and recorded a liability of $13,836 representing the fair value of our future payments as of the acquisition date to CKT under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement. Upon the execution of the Share Purchase Agreement, we entered into a Share Pledge Agreement with CKT pursuant to which we pledged a portion of the shares to be acquired as collateral securing our future installment payment obligations. In December, we paid $2,500 of the installment payment obligation. Future installment payments are payable as follows:

	(in thousands)
2014		3,500
2015		9,000

The SCP Acquisition was financed with cash and short term investments. The SCP Acquisition provided us with full control of the SCP manufacturing facility and served our long term strategic goals of additional investment in product development and vertically integrated capacity expansion.

As a result of the SCP Acquisition, we remeasured the previously held equity interest in KSCP to fair value, resulting in a gain of $2,936 reported as gain on previously held equity interest in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The gain includes $2,782 reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and previously recorded as currency translation adjustments. Both the gain on previously held equity interest and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in SCP that we acquired were based on an asset approach valuation method. Acquisition related costs of $479 were recognized as product development expenses.

The acquisition date fair value transferred for the purchase of SCP is as follows:

	(in thousands)
Cash	$	10,000
Present value of remaining purchase consideration		13,836
Previously held equity interest		15,949
Gain on remeasurement of previously held equity interest in KSCP		154
Total purchase consideration	$	39,939

The fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the SCP acquisition is shown in the table below:

	(in thousands)
Goodwill	$	6,038
Acquired tangible assets, net of assumed liabilities		33,901
Total allocation of fair value	$	39,939

The net tangible assets acquired consist primarily of cash of $2,704, inventory of $2,396, prepaid assets of $196, and property, plant and equipment of $56,654, net of assumed liabilities, primarily long term bank loans of $19,095 and accrued compensation and other liabilities of $8,954. We recorded goodwill of $6,038 due to the synergies achieved by having control over the products and manufacturing at the SCP facility.

SCP’s revenues of $344 and losses of $6,137 are included in the company’s consolidated results from the date of acquisition.

59

Product rights acquisitions

On August 30, 2013, we entered into an agreement with Mylan to acquire two products rights, Mesna and Acetylcysteine, owned by Sagent Agila. The acquisition closed on December 12, 2013, following the completion of Mylan’s acquisition of Agila from Strides. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired the product rights from Sagent Agila. The total fair value of consideration transferred was $3,400, consisting of $3,200 of cash and $200 of contingent consideration. Sagent Agila deconsolidated its ownership in the product rights, recognizing a gain of $3,400, which the joint venture partners shared through their equity interests in Sagent Agila.

We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $200 using a probability weighting approach that considered the possible outcomes based on assumptions related to the timing and probability of the Acetylcysteine product approval date. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase of a business, and consequently, results of operations reflect the new basis of accounting from the date of the acquisition. The acquisition of these two products provides us with full control of the product rights and enhanced profitability, as we will no longer be required to share the profitability with our joint venture partner. The acquisition was financed with cash. Acquisition related costs related to this transaction were nominal.

The estimated fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Mesna and Acetylcysteine is shown in the table below:

	(in thousands)
Definite-lived intangible asset	$	2,180
In-process research and development		1,220
Total allocation of fair value	$	3,400

The following unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the consolidated results of operations of Sagent as if the acquisitions had taken place on January 1, 2012 and January 1, 2013. The pro forma information includes acquisition and integration expenses. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the transaction been effected on the assumed date.

	Year Ended December 31,

Note 3. Investments

Our investments at December 31, 2013 were comprised of the following:

	Fair value		Unrealized losses			Fair value		Unrealized losses
Commercial paper	$	19,294	$	(3	)	$	23,247	$	(2	)
Corporate bonds and notes		50,922		(53	)		—		—

Unrealized losses from fixed-income securities are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates. Because we do not intend to sell these investments, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell our investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, we do not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013 or 2012.

The original cost and estimated current fair value of our fixed-income securities are set forth below.

	Cost basis		Estimated fair value
Due in one year or less	$	54,032	$	54,020
Between one and five years		59,788		59,790

Note 4. Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

We typically establish multi-year contractual agreements with GPOs and individual hospital groups to offer our products to end-user customers. As is common in the pharmaceutical industry, a significant amount of our pharmaceutical products are sold to end users under these GPO contracts through a relatively small number of drug wholesalers, which comprise the primary pharmaceutical distribution chain in the United States. Three wholesalers collectively represented approximately 84%, 82% and 83% of net revenue in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and represented approximately 87% and 89% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. To help control our credit exposure, we routinely monitor the creditworthiness of customers, review outstanding customer balances, and record allowances for bad debts as necessary. Historical credit loss has not been significant. We had a reserve of $23 and $124 for bad debts as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We do not require collateral.

We placed $49,744 of assets related to our Chinese manufacturing facility into service in September 2013, as production of the first commercial batches from the facility occurred at that time.

Note 7. Investment in Sagent Agila

We account for our 50% interest in Sagent Agila under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, our share of income or loss is recorded as “equity in net income (loss) of joint ventures” in the consolidated statements of operations.

Note 11. Debt

Credit facilities acquired under the SCP Acquisition

In connection with the acquisition of the remaining 50% equity interest in SCP, we assumed two loan contracts with the Agricultural Bank of China Ltd. in the amount of RMB 37,000 ($6,069) and RMB 83,000 ($13,613) originally entered into in June 2011 and August 2010, respectively, (the “ABC Loans”) each with a five year term. Amounts outstanding under the ABC Loans bear an interest rate equal to the benchmark lending interest rate published by the People’s Bank of China. During the term of the loan, the rate is subject to adjustment every three months. The ABC Loans are secured by the property, plant and equipment of SCP. As of December 31, 2013, RMB 63,000 ($10,333) was outstanding under the ABC Loans, at an interest rate of 6.00% per annum. As the interest rate resets on a quarterly basis, the fair value of our long-term debt approximates its carrying value. Repayment will be accelerated if the liabilities to assets ratio exceed 70% and 80% during the term of the RMB 37,000 and RMB 83,000 credit facilities, respectively, or if our SCP subsidiary is unable to achieve 50% of its projected revenues when it commences commercial activities.

On January 2, 2014, we repaid in full the then-outstanding balance of the ABC Loans, totaling RMB 63.0 million ($10.3 million). Upon prepayment of the ABC Loans, the loan contracts were terminated. No early termination fees were incurred as part of the prepayment of the ABC Loans.

Silicon Valley Bank Loan and Security Agreement

In 2009, our principal operating subsidiary entered into a $15,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) with Midcap Financial, LLC (“Midcap”), which was to expire in June 2012. In December 2010, the Revolver was amended to increase the facility by $10,000, to $25,000, and the expiration date was extended to June 2013. In March 2011, our principal operating subsidiary amended the Revolver to permit, among other things, the entry into a new $15,000 term loan credit facility (the “Term Loan”) and the incurrence of debt and granting of liens thereunder. The amendment also required that we become a borrower under the Revolver. The Revolver and Term Loan were further amended in September 2011 primarily to include our parent company as a co-borrower under the facilities. Availability under the Revolver was based on our accounts receivable and

65

inventory balances, and was $24,867 as of December 31, 2011. All available amounts as of this date had been drawn, with the net proceeds of the notes having been used for general corporate purposes. Financing costs associated with the Revolver, including commitment fees, were deferred and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the agreement.

The interest rate on the Revolver, which bore interest at a rate equal to either an adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a margin of 5.50%, or an alternate base rate plus a margin of 4.50%, was 8.50% at December 31, 2011.

In March 2011, our principal operating subsidiary entered into a $15,000 Term Loan with Midcap as agent and lender, and Silicon Valley Bank as lender. The interest rate on the Term Loan, which bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 9.0%, subject to a 3.0% LIBOR floor, was 12.0% at December 31, 2011. Equal monthly amortization payments in respect to the Term Loan were payable beginning September 1, 2011. Under the agreement, we were required to maintain the lesser of $15,000 or 65% of our consolidated cash balances with a single financial institution and were also required to pay a financing fee of $600 when the Term Loan was repaid. The financing fee was amortized to interest expense over the life of the loan, and the related obligation was included in other long-term liabilities on our balance sheet.

In February 2012, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “SVB Agreement”). The SVB Agreement provides for a $40,000 asset based revolving loan facility, with availability subject to a borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and inventory and the satisfaction of conditions precedent specified in the SVB Agreement. The SVB Agreement matures on February 13, 2016, at which time all outstanding amounts will become due and payable. Borrowings under the SVB Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including funding working capital. Amounts drawn bear an interest rate equal to, at our option, either a Eurodollar rate plus 2.50% per annum or an alternative base rate plus 1.50% per annum. We also pay a commitment fee on undrawn amounts equal to 0.30% per annum.

The SVB Agreement contains various customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants restrict our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create or permit to exist liens, make certain investments, dividends and other payments in respect of capital stock, sell assets or otherwise dispose of our property, change our lines of business, or enter into a merger or acquisition, in each case, subject to thresholds and exceptions as set forth in the SVB Agreement. The financial covenants in the SVB Agreement are limited to maintenance of a minimum adjusted quick ratio and a minimum free cash flow. The SVB Agreement also contains customary events of default, including non-payment of principal, interest and other fees after stated grace periods, violations of covenants, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, certain bankruptcy and liquidation events, certain material judgments and attachment events, cross-default to other debt in excess of a specified amount and material agreements, failure to maintain certain material governmental approvals, and actual or asserted invalidity of subordination terms, guarantees and collateral, in each case, subject to grace periods, thresholds and exceptions as set forth in the SVB Agreement.

During the continuance of an event of default, at Silicon Valley Bank’s option, all obligations will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 5.00% per annum above the otherwise applicable rate. At March 31, 2012, we were not in compliance with the free cash flow covenant in the SVB Agreement. On May 10, 2012, Silicon Valley Bank agreed to waive our non-compliance with the covenant at March 31, 2012 and modified the covenant for the remainder of 2012. In connection with the waiver and modification, we paid a fee of $100. As of December 31, 2012, no borrowings were outstanding and we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the SVB Agreement.

Concurrent with entering into the SVB Agreement, we repaid in full with cash on hand all outstanding amounts under our former Term Loan and Revolver, plus certain associated fees, and terminated the agent’s and lender’s commitments to extend further credit under those facilities. Concurrent with the repayment and termination of these agreements, all liens and security interests against our property that secured the obligations under these

66

agreements were released and discharged. Loans under the SVB Agreement are secured by a lien on substantially all of our and our principal operating subsidiary’s assets, other than our equity interests in our joint ventures and certain other limited exceptions.

As part of the termination of these prior agreements, we were required to pay to the lenders under those facilities $1,500 of early termination fees and a $600 exit fee associated with the Term Loan; however, $1,050 of such fees owing to Silicon Valley Bank under these agreements were deferred in connection with the execution of the SVB Agreement and will only be payable upon the occurrence of certain early termination events as set forth in the SVB Agreement. We have accounted for the termination of these prior agreements as the extinguishment of the Term Loan, and the partial extinguishment of the Revolver. We recorded $1,124 in the year ended December 31, 2012 to account for early termination fees and the acceleration of deferred financing costs related to the partial extinguishment of these facilities within interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

On September 23, 2013, we entered into a Second Loan Modification Agreement to the SVB Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Modification”). The Modification altered the calculation methodology of the borrowing base that is used to determine our borrowing availability and the covenant for the Adjusted Quick Ratio tested at the end of each month and eliminated the covenant to maintain a specified level of free cash flow in quarters where we maintain eligible cash balances of $30 million or greater. We did not amend the term, the maximum availability, or the interest rate applicable to the amounts drawn under the SVB Agreement. As of December 31, 2013, no borrowings were outstanding and we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the SVB Agreement

Note 13. Employee Benefit Plan

We sponsor a 401(k) defined-contribution plan (the “401(k) Plan”) covering substantially all eligible employees. Employee contributions to the 401(k) Plan are voluntary. We contribute an amount equal to 50% of a covered employee’s eligible contribution up to 6% of a participant’s compensation. Employer contributions vest over a period of three years. Participants’ contributions are limited to their annual tax deferred contribution limit as allowed by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company’s total matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan were $338, $340 and $310 for years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We may contribute additional amounts to the 401(k) Plan at our discretion. Discretionary employer contributions vest over the same three-year period. We made no discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan during the three-year period ended December 31, 2013.

Note 14. Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

We are authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock as of both December 31, 2013 and 2013. We have reserved 5,892,670 shares at December 31, 2013 and 2012, for the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of outstanding stock options.

On September 16, 2013, we completed a registered equity offering, issuing 3,542,470 new shares of our common stock at $21.25 per share in exchange for total consideration of $75,277. We received proceeds from the offering, net of the underwriting discount and expenses, of $70,580.

Preferred Stock

Prior to the initial public offering, Sagent Holding was authorized to issue 113,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock (“Series A preferred”), 7,000,000 shares of Series B preferred stock (“Series B preferred”) and 30,136,052 shares of Series B-1 preferred stock (“Series B-1 preferred” and, with Series A preferred and Series B preferred, collectively, “preferred stock”).

68

The total shares of Series A preferred stock that were issued at December 31, 2010 was 113,000,000, all at $1.00 per share. In March 2010, Sagent Holding issued 7,000,000 Series B preferred shares for $1.40 per share. In April and August 2010, Sagent Holding issued a total of 25,714,284 Series B-1 preferred shares for $1.40 per share.

In connection with our IPO and concurrent with our Reincorporation in Delaware, the holders of Sagent Holding preferred stock exchanged each of their outstanding shares of preferred stock for 0.12759 shares of our common stock.

Following the initial public offering, we were authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. No preferred stock was issued or outstanding at December 31, 2013.

Voting Rights

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record upon such matters and in such manner as may be provided by law. Prior to our IPO, each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which such shares could be converted as of the record date. Each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to vote on all matters on which common stockholders shall be entitled to vote. Each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to receive notice of all stockholders’ meetings within the same time frame and in the same manner as notice given to all stockholders entitled to vote.

Dividends

We accrue dividends when, and if, declared by our Board of Directors (the “Board”). We have never declared a dividend on any class of stock.

Liquidation

In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or wind up, each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to a preferential payment in the amount of the redemption value thereof. The redemption value was equal to the liquidation value of the Series A and B preferred stock; $1.00 and $1.40, respectively, plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends. The holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and liquidation preferences of any outstanding shares of preferred stock. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights or rights to convert their common stock into any other securities.

Conversion

The shares of Series A and B preferred stock were each convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock, at any time, at the option of the holder.

Redemption

According to Sagent Holding’s Sixth Amended and Restated Articles of Association, Sagent Holdings preferred stock was capable of being redeemed by us at such price and on all such other terms as the Board of Directors may determine. This redemption feature was deemed not to be in our control with respect to Sagent Holdings preferred stock, and, therefore, Sagent Holdings preferred stock was reported as temporary equity in the consolidated balance sheets.

Preferred Stock Warrants

In connection with the issuance of our Series B-1 preferred stock, Sagent Holding issued 2,380,952 Series B-1 preferred stock warrants at $2.10 and 2,040,816 Series B-1 stock warrants at $2.45, all of which were immediately exercisable and expired at the earlier of (i) four years from issuance, (ii) the acquisition of Sagent by another entity, subject to certain conditions or (iii) immediately prior to the closing of our first firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement.

69

Each warrant entitled its owner to purchase Series B-1 shares or shares of the class and series of Preferred Shares issued by Sagent Holding to investors in a subsequent financing, subject to the terms and conditions of the warrant agreement. The warrant holders were not entitled to vote, to receive dividends or to exercise any of the rights of common or preferred shareholders for any purpose until such warrants have been duly exercised.

The fair value of these warrants was recorded on the balance sheet at issuance and marked to market at each balance sheet date. The change in the fair value of the warrants was recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. Upon the expiry or exercise of the warrants immediately prior to the Company’s initial public offering, the then carrying value of the warrants were adjusted against equity. On April 26, 2011, the holder of our preferred stock warrants exercised all of the warrants concurrent with our IPO, acquiring 454,500 shares of our common stock having a fair value at the IPO of $7,272, for $5,001 of cash.

Note 16. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Because of their anti-dilutive effect, 1,194,717, 2,280,106 and 2,151,135 of common share equivalents, comprised of restricted stock and unexercised stock options, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The table below presents the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.

Note 17. Stock-Based Compensation

Prior to the initial public offering, we had a stock plan, the 2007 Global Share Plan (the “2007 Plan”), for key employees and nonemployees, which provided for the grant of nonqualified and incentive stock options and/or shares of restricted stock, deferred stock, and other equity awards in our common stock. Concurrent with the initial public offering, our Board adopted the 2011 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2011 Plan”, with the 2007 Plan, the “Plans”), for employees and nonemployees, which provides for the grant of nonqualified and incentive stock options and/or shares of restricted stock, deferred stock and other equity awards in our common stock. The Board administers the Plans. A total of 2,475,184 and 4,000,000 shares are authorized under the 2007 Plan and 2011 Plan, respectively, as of December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, we had 413,036 shares of common stock available for grant under the 2007 Plan and 2,600,488 shares of common stock available for grant under the 2011 Plan.

Stock options, exercisable for shares of our common stock, generally vest over a four-year period from the grant date and expire ten years from the grant date. The strike price of the options granted under the 2007 Plan is established at or above the fair value of our stock as of the grant date. The strike price of stock options granted under the 2011 Plan is established as the closing price of our stock on the business day prior to the grant date.

In 2010, the Board approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan which permits employees to exercise their stock options prior to vesting. Once purchased, we have the right to repurchase unvested stock from the employee upon termination of their services. The repurchase price is equal to the original exercise price of the option.

71

Restricted Stock

The Company measures the fair value of the restricted stock on the date of grant based on the estimated fair value of the common stock on that day. The fair value is amortized to stock-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, ratably over the vesting period. As of December 31, 2013, the total amount of unrecognized stock-based compensation related to grants of restricted stock was approximately $1,257. The Company expects to recognize this expense over an average period of approximately 33 months. The following table summarizes restricted stock activity during the year ended December 31, 2013:

	Restricted stock			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Balance at January 1, 2013		50,039		$	19.93
Granted		56,224			16.65
Vested		(9,677	)		14.92
Forfeited		(7,378	)		9.31
Balance at December 31, 2013		89,208		$	18.64

Stock options – Valuation Information

We estimate the value of stock options on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The risk-free rate of interest for the average contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The dividend yield is zero as we have not paid nor do we anticipate paying any dividends. For service-based awards, we used the “simplified method” described in Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 14, Share-Based Payment, where the expected term of awards granted is based on the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term, as we do not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. For performance-based awards, we determine the expected term based on the anticipated achievement and exercise pattern of the underlying options. Our expected volatility is based on a weighted average of the historical volatility of similar companies’ stock and the historical volatility of our stock since our IPO. The weighted-average estimated values of employee stock option grants and rights granted under the Plans as well as the weighted-average assumptions that were used in calculating such values during the last three years were based on estimates at the date of grant as follows:

	Risk free interest rate			Expected life		Expected dividend yield			Expected volatility			Fair value at grant date
2013		1.24	%		6 years		0	%		62	%	$	9.31
2012		1.05	%		6 years		0	%		61	%	$	10.67
2011		1.47	%		6 years		0	%		61	%	$	11.15

Stock options outstanding that have vested and are expected to vest as of December 31, 2013, were as follows:

	Number of shares		Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value(1)
Vested		1,450,992	$	10.75		6.5	$	21,242
Expected to vest		1,010,168	$	17.67		8.3		7,805
Total		2,461,160	$	13.59		7.2	$	29,047

⁽¹⁾  The Aggregate Intrinsic Value amounts represent the difference between the exercise price and $25.38, the fair value of our stock on December 31, 2013, for in-the-money options.

Note 20. Management reorganization:

In August 2012, we completed a reorganization of our executive management team in which we eliminated certain positions within the Company. Costs associated with the reorganization, primarily severance related charges, are reflected in the management reorganization caption in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Note 21. Income Taxes:

Components of income (loss) before income taxes are as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2013			2012			2011
Domestic	$	36,671		$	(16,817	)	$	(24,066	)
Foreign		(6,182	)		—			(2,356	)
Income (loss) before income taxes	$	30,489		$	(16,817	)	$	(26,422	)

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and other tax credit carryforwards. These items are measured using the enacted tax rates applicable to the period when the differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred income tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

We have generated tax losses since incorporation and do not believe that it is more likely than not that the losses and other deferred tax assets will be utilized. As such, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. A summary of our net operating loss carryforwards, including the timing of expiry, is as follows:

Year of Expiry	Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
2030		16,967
2031		13,256
2032		8,674
Total	$	38,897

Additional carryforwards of $27,678, principally related to our China subsidiary, will expire between 2014 and 2018. Net operating losses and carryforwards are available for use against our consolidated federal taxable income.

The following is a reconciliation of our income tax provision (benefit) computed at the U.S. federal statutory rate to the income tax provision (benefit) reported in the consolidated statements of operations:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2013			2012			2011
Provision (benefit) at statutory rate	$	10,366		$	(5,718	)	$	(8,983	)
State income taxes, net of federal income tax		230			(37	)		(236	)
Foreign rate differential		560			—			801
Valuation allowance		(9,998	)		4,561			7,799
Permanent book / tax differences		(263	)		1,194			619
Provision for income taxes	$	895		$	—		$	—

Of the total 2013 provision for income taxes, $707 related to the fourth quarter correction of AMT expense that was not recorded during the first three quarters of 2013.

The tax effects of temporary differences giving rise to deferred income tax assets and liabilities were:

	December 31,
	2013			2012
Deferred tax assets:
Product development and start-up costs	$	12,039		$	10,142

Net deferred tax assets (liabilities)	$	—		$	—

Our loss and credit carryforwards include $940 of windfall tax benefits that would reverse to accumulated paid-in-capital upon realization.

We classify uncertain tax positions as noncurrent income tax liabilities unless expected to be paid within one year. Classification of net deferred tax assets (liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets is as follows:

	December 31,

Current assets	$	6		$	6
Noncurrent liabilities		(6	)		(6	)

Note 22. Commitments and Contingencies

Product Development Agreements

We have entered into various business agreements for the development and marketing of finished dosage form pharmaceutical products, including (i) development and supply agreements, some of which contain contingent milestone payments, as well as (ii) straight-supply agreements, which may contain minimum purchase commitments.

These agreements may include future payment commitments for contingent milestone payments. We will be responsible for contingent milestone payments based upon the occurrence of future events. Each agreement defines the triggering event of its future payment schedule, such as meeting development progress timelines, successful product testing and validation, successful clinical studies, various FDA and other regulatory approvals, and other factors as negotiated in each case.

We have entered into significant development, marketing, and supply agreements with A.C.S. Dobfar S.p.a. (“Dobfar”), A.C.S. Dobfar SA-Switzerland (“Info”), Gland Pharma Limited (“Gland”), and Actavis, an international pharmaceutical company. Key terms of these agreements are set forth below.

75

Dobfar

Pursuant to a manufacture and supply agreement with Dobfar and its distributor, WorldGen LLC (“WorldGen”), Dobfar develops, manufactures and supplies us with presentations of cefepime through WorldGen. We have agreed to pay WorldGen the transfer price for each unit of cefepime provided under the agreement.

Under a manufacture and supply agreement with Info, Info develops, manufactures, and supplies us with presentations of levofloxacin in premix bags. We have agreed to pay a transfer price for each unit of levofloxacin supplied, plus a percentage of the net profit from the sales of levofloxacin in premix bags. In addition, we have agreed to share with Info the cost of development activities equally. The initial term of the agreement expires on July 7, 2016, after which we have the option to renew the agreement for successive additional two year terms unless Info provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least two years prior to its initial expiration date or the expiration date of a renewal term.

The current renewal term of the cefepime agreement expires on April 1, 2015, after which we have the option to renew the agreement for successive additional one-year terms unless Dobfar provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least six months prior to the expiration of a renewal term. In addition, we also have supply agreements or other purchase commitments with Dobfar and/or WorldGen covering six currently marketed products – ampicillin, ampicillin sulbactam, cefazolin, cefoxitin, ceftazadime and ceftriaxone – and, with Info, covering three currently marketed products – ciprofloxacin, fluconazole, and zoledronic acid bags, in both 4mg and 5mg presentations, and additional products currently under development.

Gland

Pursuant to our development and supply agreement with Gland, we jointly developed our heparin products with Gland, and Gland agreed to supply us heparin for sale in the U.S. market. In addition, we have agreed to use Gland as our exclusive supplier for heparin and Gland has agreed not to, directly or indirectly, sell heparin to any other person or entity that markets or makes use of or sells heparin in the U.S., subject to certain exceptions.

We have agreed to pay a transfer price for each unit of heparin supplied under the agreement, plus a percentage of the net profit from the sales of heparin. In addition, each party has agreed to share the cost of development activities equally up to a specified amount.

The initial term of the agreement expires in June 2016, after which, unless a third party has rights to market heparin in the U.S. as a result of our discontinuing active sales of heparin there, the agreement automatically renews for consecutive periods of one year unless either party provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least 24 months prior to the desired date of termination.

In addition, we also have other supply agreements with Gland covering four currently marketed products, adenosine, amiodarone, ondansetron and vancomycin, and additional products currently under initial development.

Actavis

In April 2009, we entered into a development, manufacturing and supply agreement with Actavis. Under the terms of this agreement, we became the exclusive U.S. marketing partner under certain conditions for a portfolio of six specialty injectable products developed and manufactured by Actavis under its ANDAs. In February 2010, this agreement was amended to include two additional products. Pursuant to this agreement, Actavis will supply these products to us at a specified transfer price and will receive a specified percentage of the net profit from sales of such products. In March 2013, we agreed to with Actavis to terminate the development, manufacturing and supply agreement, effective December 31, 2014. As consideration for the termination of the agreement, we will receive a greater percentage of the net profit from sales of products during the remaining term of the agreement and a one-time payment of $5,000. As of December 31, 2013, this agreement with Actavis covered ten marketed products.

76

The table below summarizes our estimate for contingent potential milestone payments and fees for the year ended December 31, 2013 and beyond assuming all contingent milestone payments occur. These payments do not include sales-based royalty payments, which are dependent on the introduction of new products. As new products are launched, sales-based royalty payments are recognized as an element of cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations.

Contingent milestone payments are as follows at December 31, 2013:

2014		18,805
2015		7,528
2016		2,293
2017		3,227
2018		204
Thereafter		—
Total	$	32,057

Leases

We have entered into various operating lease agreements for office space, communications, information technology equipment and software, and office equipment. Total rental expense amounted to $431, $467 and $422 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

As of December 31, 2013, total future annual minimum lease payments related to noncancelable operating leases are as follows:

2014		297
2015		306
2016		315
Total	$	918

Regulatory Matters

We are subject to regulatory oversight by the FDA and other regulatory authorities with respect to the development, manufacturing and sale of our products. Failure to comply with regulatory requirements could have a significant adverse effect on our business and operations.

Litigation

From time to time, we are subject to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims may include assertions that our products infringe existing patents and claims that the use of our products has caused personal injuries. We intend to vigorously defend any such litigation that may arise under all defenses that would be available to us. Currently, we are party to the following claim.

Zoledronic Acid (Generic versions of Zometa^® and Reclast^®). On February 20, 2013, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation (“Novartis”) sued the Company and several other defendants in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging, among other things, that sales of the Company’s (i) zoledronic acid premix bag (4mg/100ml), made by ACS Dobfar Info S.A. (“Info”), also a defendant, a generic version of Novartis’ Zometa^® ready to use bottle, would infringe U.S. Patent No. 7,932,241 (the “241 Patent”) and U.S. Patent No. 8,324,189 (the “189 Patent”) and (ii) zoledronic acid premix bag (5mg/100ml), also made by Info, a generic version of Novartis’ Reclast^® ready to use bottle, would infringe U.S. Patent No. 8,052,987 and the 241 Patent, and (iii) zoledronic acid vial (4mg/5ml), made by Actavis LLC, also a defendant, a generic version of Novartis’ Zometa^® vial, would infringe the 189 Patent. (Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation v. Actavis, LLC, et. al.,

77

Case No. 13-cv-1028) On March 1, 2013, the District Court denied Novartis’ request for a temporary restraining order against the Company and the other defendants, including Actavis and Info. On March 6, 2013, the Company, began selling Actavis’ zoledronic acid vial, the generic version of Zometa^®. Also, as of August 27, 2013 and October 1, 2013, the Company began selling zoledronic acid premix bags in 4mg/100ml and 5mg/100ml presentations, respectively. The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the case, and the Company has sold and will continue to sell these products. While an estimate of the potential loss resulting from an adverse final determination that one of the patents in suit is valid and infringed cannot currently be made as specific monetary damages have not been asserted, an adverse final determination could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

At this time, there are no other proceedings of which we are aware that are considered likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 23. Related party transactions:

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, we had a receivable of $3,644 and $1,404 from Sagent Agila LLC, which is expected to offset future profit-sharing payments. These amounts are included within due from related party on the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, we had a payable of $3,129 and $7,026 to Sagent Agila LLC, principally for the acquisition of inventory and amounts due under profit-sharing arrangements. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Sagent Agila LLC distributed $8,635 and $10,310 to its joint venture partners. As the Sagent Agila joint venture was in a cumulative loss position during 2011, our share of the 2011 distribution was treated as a return of capital in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (a) were effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (b) include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those written policies and procedures that:

• pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets;

• provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America;

• provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with management and director authorization; and

• provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Internal control over financial reporting includes the controls themselves, monitoring and internal auditing practices and actions taken to correct deficiencies as identified.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. Management based this assessment on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 Framework) (“COSO”). Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We acquired the remaining 50% equity interest in Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (“SCP”) on June 4, 2013, and it represents approximately $73.6 million of our total assets, $48.2 million of our net assets, $344 thousand of our net revenue and $6.2 million of our net loss as of and

79

for the year ended December 31, 2013. As SCP was acquired in a purchase business combination during 2013, the scope of our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting does not include SCP. This exclusion is in accordance with the SEC’s general guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from our scope in the year of acquisition.

Management reviewed the results of our assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of December 31, 2013, we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, who audited and reported on the consolidated financial statements included in this report, has issued an audit report on their assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, which is included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management, together with our CEO and CFO, evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2013. We determined that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 framework) and our report dated March 7, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

We have audited Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 framework) (the COSO criteria). Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As indicated in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of Sagent (China) Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd., which is included in the 2013 consolidated financial statements of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and constituted $73,600,000 and $48,200,000 of total and net assets, respectively as of December 31, 2013, and $344,000 and $6,200,000 of revenues and net losses, respectively, for the year then ended. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of Sagent (China) Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd.

In our opinion, Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013 of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and our report dated March 7, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (a development stage company) (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of loss, comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 and for the period from December 29, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2012, 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 conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of 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 and in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 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 Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (a development stage company) at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 and for the period from December 29, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2012 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

S-1

The Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has recurring operating losses and has a working capital deficiency. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

1. Organization and Description of Business

Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on December 29, 2006 in the province of Sichuan of the People’s Republic of China and is a joint venture formed between Chengdu Kanghong Technology (Group) Co., Ltd. (“Kanghong”) and Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Sagent”) (collectively, the “Shareholders”) to establish a production facility in Chengdu, China with the primary business objective of developing and manufacturing pharmaceutical products, principally injectable-based generic equivalents to branded products. Operations of the Company substantially commenced in March 2007 and have consisted principally of raising capital, establishing facilities, and recruiting personnel for the purpose of conducting development activities in preparation for site validation by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). As the planned commercial operations have not commenced, the Company is considered a development stage company.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern even though the Company has incurred operating losses since inception and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $22 million as at December 31, 2012. The Company expects to incur further operating losses in the next 12 months as it continues to incur pre-production related expenses as it works to complete the FDA approval process of its production facility, which was previously inspected by the FDA in July 2012. Currently, the Company will have to raise additional funds to sustain operations and execute on its operating plan. In order to assist the Company through to the date of a potential financing event, if any, Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Sagent”), with the approval of its Board of Directors, issued a unilateral, unconditional and legally-binding financial support letter to the Company, whereby Sagent will provide the Company with all the necessary funding it requires to continue its operations through September 30, 2013. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital from the shareholders or others or that such financing will be available on satisfactory terms, if at all.

Additionally, the Company’s existing long-term credit facilities (see Note 8) have a financial operating covenant that becomes operable once the Company commences the sales of their products. However, given its limited operating history there can be no assurances that it will comply with this operating covenant and therefore the credit facilities would be due on demand.

On April 30, 2013, Sagent entered into a Share Purchase Agreement, with Kanghong pursuant to which Sagent agreed to acquire Kanghong’s 50% interest in the Company in exchange for $25,000, payable in installments through September 2015. The acquisition was subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by the Chengu Hi-Tech Industrial Zone Bureau of Investment Services (“BIS”). On June 4, 2013, Sagent received final approval for the transaction from the BIS. Accordingly, the transaction has been completed. As a result of the completion of the transaction, we are now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sagent.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S GAAP”). The financial statements from the period from January 1, 2013 to June for 2013 and from the period from December 29, 2006 (date of inception) to June 4, 2013 are unaudited.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the period. Areas where management uses subjective judgment include, but are not limited to, assessment for inventory reserves, estimating the useful lives of long-lived assets and intangible assets, assessing for impairment of long-lived assets, and accounting for deferred income taxes. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and as such, differences may be material to the financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of their short-term maturities.

Foreign Currency

The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi (RMB). Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities are remeasured at the balance sheet date exchange rate. Exchange gains and losses are recognized in the statements of operations.

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars (US$). Assets and liabilities of the Company are translated into US$ at fiscal year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of shareholders’ equity.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use and have original maturities less than three months.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the weighted-average method or market value. Market is defined principally as net realizable value. Raw material cost is based on purchase price. Provisions are made for excess, slow moving and obsolete inventory as well as inventory which has a carrying value that is in excess of net realizable value.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

Buildings	20 years
Machinery	5 -10 years
Office equipment	3 -5 years
Vehicles	5 years

Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense when incurred, whereas the cost of betterments that extends the useful life of property, plant and equipment are capitalized as additions to the related assets. Retirement, sale and disposals of assets are recorded by removing the cost and related accumulated depreciation with any resulting gain or loss reflected in the statements of operations.

Property, plant and equipment that are purchased or constructed which require a period of time before the assets are ready for their intended use are accounted for as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is recorded at acquisition cost, including installation costs and associated interest costs. Construction-in-progress is transferred to specific property and equipment accounts and commences depreciation when these assets are ready for their intended use. The capitalization of interest costs commences when expenditures for the asset have been made, activities that are necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use are in progress and interest cost is being incurred. The capitalization period ends when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets include a land use right and purchased software. They are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment, if any. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the intangible assets. The estimated useful life for the acquired intangible assets is as follows:

Purchased software	2 years
Land use right	50 years

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets or asset group, including intangible assets with finite lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or a group of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When these events occur, the Company evaluates for impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company would recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset group over its fair value. Fair value is generally determined by discounting the cash

flows expected to be generated by the assets, when the market prices are not readily available for the long-lived assets. The Company did not record impairment charges associated with its long-lived assets or intangible assets during the period from January 1, 2013 to June 4, 2013 the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and for the period from December 29, 2006 (date of inception) to June 4, 2013.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Pre-production Expenses

Pre-production costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of the Company’s product development efforts, including formulation, design and production processes and the testing and evaluation of pre-production prototypes.

Government Grants

Government grants received from the period of inception through June 4, 2013 are to subsidize the funding of the Company’s purchases of its manufacturing assets. The fair value of the government grants is recorded as deferred government grants and will be amortized over the weighted average useful life of the related manufacturing assets once all attaching conditions are complied with and the related assets are substantially complete and ready for their intended use.

Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive loss is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income is reported in the statement of comprehensive loss and the statement of shareholders’ equity. Comprehensive loss of the Company includes net loss and foreign currency translation differences for the period from January 1, 2013 to June 4, 2013, each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2012 and for the period from December 29, 2006 (date of inception) to June 4, 2013.

3. Concentration of Risk

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. As of June 4, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were all deposited with two financial institutions located in the PRC. Management believes that the

(Amounts in thousands of U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated)

3. Concentration of Risk (continued)

financial institutions are of high credit quality and continually monitors the credit worthiness of the financial institutions. Historically, deposits in Chinese banks are secure due to the state policy on protecting depositors’ interests. However, China promulgated a new Bankruptcy Law in August 2006 that came into effect on June 1, 2007, which contains a separate article expressly stating that the State Council may promulgate implementation measures for the bankruptcy of Chinese banks based on the Bankruptcy Law. Under the new Bankruptcy Law, a Chinese bank may go into bankruptcy. In addition, since China’s concession to the World Trade Organization, foreign banks have been gradually permitted to operate in China and have been significant competitors against Chinese banks in many aspects, especially since the opening of the Renminbi business to foreign banks in late 2006. Therefore, the risk of bankruptcy of the Chinese banks in which the Company has deposits has increased. In the event of bankruptcy of the banks which hold the Company’s deposits, it is unlikely to claim its deposits back in full since it is unlikely to be classified as a secured creditor based on PRC laws.

Currency Convertibility Risk

A significant portion of the Company’s businesses are transacted in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The RMB is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. The appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar was approximately 1.7%, 0.2% and 4.9% in the period from January 1, 2013 to June 4, 2013 and the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Both credit facilities are secured by certain fixed assets of the Company. The interest rate of the credit facilities is the prevailing interest rate of People’s Bank of China on the date of the draw downs. Repayment will be accelerated if the liabilities to assets ratio of the Company exceeds 70% and 80% during the term of the RMB37,000 and RMB83,000 credit facilities, respectively, or if the Company is unable to achieve 50% of its projected revenues when the Company commences commercial activities. During the period from January 1, 2013 to June 4, 2013 and as of June 4, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these covenants. All interest costs were capitalized in all periods presented as the funds were used to finance the build-out of the Company’s manufacturing facility (see Note 5).

8. Long-Term Bank Loans (continued)

Principal payments due on the long-term bank loans as of June 4, 2013 are as follows:

Year ending June 4,
2014	$	4,855
2015		4,855
2016		9,385
	$	19,095

In November 2013 and January 2014, the Company repaid RMB55, 000 ($8,221) and in full RMB63,000 ($10,333) of the then-outstanding balances of the loan. Upon prepayment of the loan, the loan contracts were terminated. No early termination fees were incurred as part of the prepayment of the loans.

9. Income Taxes

In accordance with the PRC Corporate Income Tax Law (the “New CIT Law”) which was approved and became effective on January 1, 2008, the provision for Mainland China current income tax has been based on a statutory rate of 25% of the assessable profits of the Company for period from January 1, to June 4, 2013 and each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Loss before income taxes for the period from January 1, 2013 to June 4, 2013 and the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was derived in the PRC.

The Company’s total income tax expense for the period from January 1, 2013 to June 4, 2013, the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and for the period from December 29, 2006 (date of inception) to June 4, 2013 is zero, and differs from the theoretical amount that would arise using the PRC statutory income tax rate primarily due to the effects of valuation allowances on the deferred tax assets generated during the respective years.

Deferred tax assets reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company has deferred tax assets of $6,049 as of June 4, 2013, which are fully offset by a valuation allowance. The significant components of deferred tax assets are related to pre-operating expenses.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not, that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the Company’s historical taxable losses and their projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will not be realized.

9. Income Taxes (continued)

Based upon the Company’s evaluation of its income tax positions as of June 4, 2013, the Company has no unrecognized tax positions. As of June 4, 2013, the tax years ended December 31, 2008 through 2012 and for the period January1, 2013 to June 4, 2013 for the PRC entities remain open for statutory examination by the PRC tax authorities.

10. Shareholder Contribution

Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc., one of the Company’s shareholders, granted stock options to two of the Company’s employees and also provided cash compensation to one of these employees in 2013, 2012 and 2011. Twenty-five percent of these options are to be vested on each anniversary date from the vesting commencement date of the respective grants over a four year period. These stock options are accounted for as non-employee stock options given these stock options were granted to employees of an investee by a non-controlling shareholder. Therefore, these grants are recorded at fair value at each reporting date during the vesting period. The Company recorded $33, $313, $1,178 and $1,524 as a shareholder contribution and recognized the associated stock-based and cash compensation expense in the general and administrative expense for the period ended January 1, 2013 to June 4, 2013 and years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and for the period from December 29, 2006 (date of inception) to June 4, 2013.

11. Commitment and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

As of June 4, 2013, the Company had outstanding purchase commitments related to property, plant and equipment in the amount of $508, which are all due within one year.

12. Fair Value Measurement

The Company applies ASC topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 requires disclosures to be provided around fair value measurement.

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — Includes other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

ASC 820 describes three main approaches to measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach; and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant

12. Fair Value Measurement (continued)

information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.

In accordance with ASC 820, the Company measures cash equivalents at fair value. Cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 as the cash equivalents are valued using quoted market prices.

As of June 4, 2013, we had a related party payable of $4,868 to Sagent. The amounts were for material purchased on our behalf, a $1,000 advanced payment of a finished goods inventory, and a related party loan of $2,000.

14. Subsequent Events

On January 2, 2014, we repaid in full the then-outstanding balance of the ABC Loans, totaling RMB 63,000 ($10,333) million ($10.3 million). Upon prepayment, the loan contracts were terminated. No early termination fees were incurred as part of the prepayment of the loans. No other subsequent events requiring disclosure were noted.

Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors and Members of Sagent Agila LLC.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Sagent Agila LLC, which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations and comprehensive income, statement of members’ equity and statement of cash flow for the year 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 conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of 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 audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 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 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 Sagent Agila LLC at December 31, 2012 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Nature of Operations

Sagent Agila LLC (“Sagent Agila”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a limited liability company incorporated in Wyoming between Strides Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Strides Arcolab International Limited (“Strides US”), and Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Sagent”). Sagent Agila was established in January 2007 with the principal business of development, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of generic pharmaceutical products to the U.S. market. In December 2013, Mylan Incorporated (“Mylan”) acquired Strides’ Agila Specialities (“Agila”) subsidiary, including Strides’ ownership share of the Sagent Agila joint venture.

All of our products are sold to Sagent, who sells the products into the U.S. market. The initial term of the venture expires upon the tenth anniversary of its formation. Sagent and Agila may agree to extend the term of the venture.

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The financial statements as of December 31, 2013 and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2011 are unaudited.

The financial statements include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of Sagent Agila LLC.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash

At December 31, 2013, our cash balances were deposited in financial institutions and consisted of immediately available fund balances. The majority of our funds at December 31, 2013, were maintained at one stable financial institution, in an amount in excess of federally insured limits. This represents a concentration of credit risk. We have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents to date.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities such as cash and other current liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate long-lived assets, consisting of intangible assets with definite lives, for impairment whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may no longer be recoverable. An evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the carrying values of the assets to projected future undiscounted cash flows, in addition to other quantitative and qualitative analyses. Judgments made by management related to the expected useful lives of long-lived assets and the ability to realize undiscounted cash

S-23

flows in excess of the carrying amounts of such assets are affected by factors such as changes in economic conditions and changes in operating performance. Upon indication that the carrying values of such assets may not be recoverable, we recognize an impairment loss as a charge against current operations. There were no impairment charges recorded during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 or 2011.

Product Development Agreements

Product development costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our internal product development efforts and acquired in-process research and development, as well as product development costs incurred in connection with our third-party collaboration efforts. Non-refundable milestone payments made under contract research and development arrangements or product licensing arrangements prior to regulatory approval may be deferred and are expensed as the related services are delivered and the milestone is achieved. If we determine that it is no longer probable that the product will be pursued, any related capitalized amount is expensed in the current period.

Once a product receives regulatory approval, we record any subsequent milestone payments as an intangible asset to be amortized on a straight-line basis as a component of cost of sales over the related license period or the estimated life of the acquired product. At December 31, 2013, the amortization period for intangible assets arising from approved products ranges from three to seven years with a weighted-average period prior to the next renewal or extension of five years. We make the determination whether to capitalize or expense amounts related to the development of new products and technologies through agreements with third parties based on our ability to recover our cost in a reasonable period of time from the estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated pursuant to each agreement. Market, regulatory, and legal factors, among other things, may affect the realizability of the projected cash flows that an agreement was initially expected to generate. We regularly monitor these factors and subject capitalized costs to periodic impairment testing.

Intangible Assets

Certain amounts paid to third parties which are capitalized related to the development of new products and technologies are included within intangible assets. We determine the estimated fair values of certain intangible assets with definitive lives utilizing valuations performed by management at the time of their acquisition, based on anticipated future cash flow activity.

Non-refundable milestone payments made under contract research and development arrangements or product licensing arrangements prior to receiving regulatory approval for a product may be deferred, and are expensed as the related services are delivered and related milestones are achieved.

Income Taxes

We are treated as a partnership for US tax purposes. Earnings of the partnership are passed through to each individual member, and as such, no income taxes are recorded in our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition – Product revenue

Product revenue represents the sale of products to Sagent. We recognize revenue when our obligations are fulfilled relative to a specific product and all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectability is reasonably assured; and (iv) delivery has occurred. Delivery is deemed to have occurred upon receipt of product, upon fulfillment of acceptance terms, if any, and when no significant contractual obligations remain. We do not incur shipping and handling fees.

S-24

Revenue Recognition – License fees

We provide Sagent with the right to market products manufactured under our Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) in exchange for a licensing fee. We recognize our license fee revenue based on the net gross profit earned on the sale of product by Sagent, less a marketing fee charged by Sagent on each sale.

Note 2. Deconsolidation of product rights

On August 30, 2013, Sagent entered into an agreement with Mylan to acquire the rights to our Mesna and Acetylcysteine product rights. The fair value of purchase consideration for the transaction was $3,400, which was based on the aggregate purchase consideration transferred to Mylan by Sagent for one-half of the asset value. The transaction closed on December 12, 2013, subsequent to the completion of Mylan’s acquisition of Agila from Strides. We accounted for the transaction as the deconsolidation of our ownership in these assets, and recognized a gain equal to the net fair value of the assets, $3,372.

Note 3. Intangible assets, net

Intangible assets at December 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

	December 31, 2013 (unaudited)							December 31, 2012
	Gross carrying amount		Accumulated amortization			Intangible assets, net		Gross carrying amount		Accumulated amortization			Intangible assets, net

	$	808	$	(286	)	$	522	$	933	$	(163	)	$	770

Movements in intangible assets were due to the following:

	2013 (unaudited)						2012
	Product licensing rights			Product development rights			Product licensing rights			Product development rights
Balance at January 1	$	645		$	125		$	698		$	275
Acquisition of product rights		—			—			35			—
Amortization of product rights		(123	)		(125	)		(88	)		(150	)
Balance at December 31	$	522		$	—		$	645		$	125

Amortization expense related to our product development rights was $125 and $150 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We incurred no amortization expense related to our product development rights in 2011. Amortization expense related to our product licensing rights was $123, $88 and $54 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The weighted-average period prior to the next extension or renewal for the 14 products comprising our product licensing rights intangible asset was 60 months at December 31, 2013.

We currently estimate amortization expense over each of the next five years as follows:

For the year ending December 31,	Amortization expense
2014	$	108
2015		108
2016		104
2017		91
2018		62

Note 4. Members’ Equity

Common Stock

We are authorized to issue 3,400,000 shares of common stock as of both December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Voting Rights

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record upon such matters and in such manner as may be provided by law.

Dividends

We accrue dividends when, and if, declared by our Members. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we distributed $8,635 and $10,309, respectively, to our joint venture partners.

Note 5. Commitments and Contingencies

Product Development Agreements

We have entered into a series of business agreements with Sagent and Agila for the development, manufacturing and marketing of finished dosage form pharmaceutical products, some of which contain contingent milestone payments.

These agreements may include future payment commitments for contingent milestone payments. We will be responsible for contingent milestone payments based upon the occurrence of future events. Each agreement defines the triggering event of its future payment schedule, such as meeting development progress timelines, successful product testing and validation, successful clinical studies, various FDA and other regulatory approvals, and other factors as negotiated in each case.

The table below summarizes our estimate for contingent potential milestone payments and fees for the year ended December 31, 2013 and beyond assuming all contingent milestone payments occur.

Contingent milestone payments are as follows at December 31, 2013:

2014	$	58
2015		148
2016		—
2017		—
2018		—
Thereafter		—
Total	$	206

Regulatory Matters

We are subject to regulatory oversight by the FDA and other regulatory authorities with respect to the development, manufacturing and sale of our products. Failure to comply with regulatory requirements could have a significant adverse effect on our business and operations.

Litigation

From time to time, we are subject to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims may include assertions that our products infringe existing patents and claims that the use of our products has

S-26

caused personal injuries. We intend to vigorously defend any such litigation that may arise under all defenses that would be available to us. At this time, there are no proceedings of which we are aware that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations.

Note 6. Related party transactions:

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had a receivable of $3,129 and $7,440, respectively, from Sagent, which is related to inventory shipments and license fees due. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we also had a deposit of $3,638 and $1,982, respectively, with Strides Arcolab related to future inventory purchases and prepayment of certain license fee revenues. These amounts are included within due from Sagent and due from Agila, respectively, on the balance sheets. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had a payable of $3,654 and $1,828, respectively, to Sagent for inventory markups on certain products and shipment related charges and a payable of $674 and $5,525, respectively, to Strides Arcolab, principally related to inventory shipments.

Note 7. Subsequent events:

We evaluated subsequent events through March 7, 2014, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. No subsequent events requiring disclosure were noted.

Acquisitions

Note 2. Acquisitions:

Remaining equity interest of SCP

On April 30, 2013, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Chengdu Kanghong Pharmaceuticals (Group) Co. Ltd. (“CKT”) to acquire CKT’s 50% equity interest in KSCP for $25,000, payable in installments through September 2015. The SCP Acquisition closed on June 4, 2013, following approval by the Chengdu Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone Bureau of Investment Services. Concurrent with the closing of the SCP Acquisition, we paid $10,000 of the aggregate purchase consideration, and recorded a liability of $13,836 representing the fair value of our future payments as of the acquisition date to CKT under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement. Upon the execution of the Share Purchase Agreement, we entered into a Share Pledge Agreement with CKT pursuant to which we pledged a portion of the shares to be acquired as collateral securing our future installment payment obligations. In December, we paid $2,500 of the installment payment obligation. Future installment payments are payable as follows:

	(in thousands)
2014		3,500
2015		9,000

The SCP Acquisition was financed with cash and short term investments. The SCP Acquisition provided us with full control of the SCP manufacturing facility and served our long term strategic goals of additional investment in product development and vertically integrated capacity expansion.

As a result of the SCP Acquisition, we remeasured the previously held equity interest in KSCP to fair value, resulting in a gain of $2,936 reported as gain on previously held equity interest in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The gain includes $2,782 reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and previously recorded as currency translation adjustments. Both the gain on previously held equity interest and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in SCP that we acquired were based on an asset approach valuation method. Acquisition related costs of $479 were recognized as product development expenses.

The acquisition date fair value transferred for the purchase of SCP is as follows:

	(in thousands)
Cash	$	10,000
Present value of remaining purchase consideration		13,836
Previously held equity interest		15,949
Gain on remeasurement of previously held equity interest in KSCP		154
Total purchase consideration	$	39,939

The fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the SCP acquisition is shown in the table below:

	(in thousands)
Goodwill	$	6,038
Acquired tangible assets, net of assumed liabilities		33,901
Total allocation of fair value	$	39,939

The net tangible assets acquired consist primarily of cash of $2,704, inventory of $2,396, prepaid assets of $196, and property, plant and equipment of $56,654, net of assumed liabilities, primarily long term bank loans of $19,095 and accrued compensation and other liabilities of $8,954. We recorded goodwill of $6,038 due to the synergies achieved by having control over the products and manufacturing at the SCP facility.

SCP’s revenues of $344 and losses of $6,137 are included in the company’s consolidated results from the date of acquisition.

Product rights acquisitions

On August 30, 2013, we entered into an agreement with Mylan to acquire two products rights, Mesna and Acetylcysteine, owned by Sagent Agila. The acquisition closed on December 12, 2013, following the completion of Mylan’s acquisition of Agila from Strides. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired the product rights from Sagent Agila. The total fair value of consideration transferred was $3,400, consisting of $3,200 of cash and $200 of contingent consideration. Sagent Agila deconsolidated its ownership in the product rights, recognizing a gain of $3,400, which the joint venture partners shared through their equity interests in Sagent Agila.

We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $200 using a probability weighting approach that considered the possible outcomes based on assumptions related to the timing and probability of the Acetylcysteine product approval date. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase of a business, and consequently, results of operations reflect the new basis of accounting from the date of the acquisition. The acquisition of these two products provides us with full control of the product rights and enhanced profitability, as we will no longer be required to share the profitability with our joint venture partner. The acquisition was financed with cash. Acquisition related costs related to this transaction were nominal.

The estimated fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Mesna and Acetylcysteine is shown in the table below:

	(in thousands)
Definite-lived intangible asset	$	2,180
In-process research and development		1,220
Total allocation of fair value	$	3,400

The following unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the consolidated results of operations of Sagent as if the acquisitions had taken place on January 1, 2012 and January 1, 2013. The pro forma information includes acquisition and integration expenses. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the transaction been effected on the assumed date.

Note 23. Related party transactions:

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, we had a receivable of $3,644 and $1,404 from Sagent Agila LLC, which is expected to offset future profit-sharing payments. These amounts are included within due from related party on the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, we had a payable of $3,129 and $7,026 to Sagent Agila LLC, principally for the acquisition of inventory and amounts due under profit-sharing arrangements. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Sagent Agila LLC distributed $8,635 and $10,310 to its joint venture partners. As the Sagent Agila joint venture was in a cumulative loss position during 2011, our share of the 2011 distribution was treated as a return of capital in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Commitments and Contingencies

Note 22. Commitments and Contingencies

Product Development Agreements

We have entered into various business agreements for the development and marketing of finished dosage form pharmaceutical products, including (i) development and supply agreements, some of which contain contingent milestone payments, as well as (ii) straight-supply agreements, which may contain minimum purchase commitments.

These agreements may include future payment commitments for contingent milestone payments. We will be responsible for contingent milestone payments based upon the occurrence of future events. Each agreement defines the triggering event of its future payment schedule, such as meeting development progress timelines, successful product testing and validation, successful clinical studies, various FDA and other regulatory approvals, and other factors as negotiated in each case.

We have entered into significant development, marketing, and supply agreements with A.C.S. Dobfar S.p.a. (“Dobfar”), A.C.S. Dobfar SA-Switzerland (“Info”), Gland Pharma Limited (“Gland”), and Actavis, an international pharmaceutical company. Key terms of these agreements are set forth below.

Dobfar

Pursuant to a manufacture and supply agreement with Dobfar and its distributor, WorldGen LLC (“WorldGen”), Dobfar develops, manufactures and supplies us with presentations of cefepime through WorldGen. We have agreed to pay WorldGen the transfer price for each unit of cefepime provided under the agreement.

Under a manufacture and supply agreement with Info, Info develops, manufactures, and supplies us with presentations of levofloxacin in premix bags. We have agreed to pay a transfer price for each unit of levofloxacin supplied, plus a percentage of the net profit from the sales of levofloxacin in premix bags. In addition, we have agreed to share with Info the cost of development activities equally. The initial term of the agreement expires on July 7, 2016, after which we have the option to renew the agreement for successive additional two year terms unless Info provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least two years prior to its initial expiration date or the expiration date of a renewal term.

The current renewal term of the cefepime agreement expires on April 1, 2015, after which we have the option to renew the agreement for successive additional one-year terms unless Dobfar provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least six months prior to the expiration of a renewal term. In addition, we also have supply agreements or other purchase commitments with Dobfar and/or WorldGen covering six currently marketed products – ampicillin, ampicillin sulbactam, cefazolin, cefoxitin, ceftazadime and ceftriaxone – and, with Info, covering three currently marketed products – ciprofloxacin, fluconazole, and zoledronic acid bags, in both 4mg and 5mg presentations, and additional products currently under development.

Gland

Pursuant to our development and supply agreement with Gland, we jointly developed our heparin products with Gland, and Gland agreed to supply us heparin for sale in the U.S. market. In addition, we have agreed to use Gland as our exclusive supplier for heparin and Gland has agreed not to, directly or indirectly, sell heparin to any other person or entity that markets or makes use of or sells heparin in the U.S., subject to certain exceptions.

We have agreed to pay a transfer price for each unit of heparin supplied under the agreement, plus a percentage of the net profit from the sales of heparin. In addition, each party has agreed to share the cost of development activities equally up to a specified amount.

The initial term of the agreement expires in June 2016, after which, unless a third party has rights to market heparin in the U.S. as a result of our discontinuing active sales of heparin there, the agreement automatically renews for consecutive periods of one year unless either party provides notice of its intent to terminate the agreement at least 24 months prior to the desired date of termination.

In addition, we also have other supply agreements with Gland covering four currently marketed products, adenosine, amiodarone, ondansetron and vancomycin, and additional products currently under initial development.

Actavis

In April 2009, we entered into a development, manufacturing and supply agreement with Actavis. Under the terms of this agreement, we became the exclusive U.S. marketing partner under certain conditions for a portfolio of six specialty injectable products developed and manufactured by Actavis under its ANDAs. In February 2010, this agreement was amended to include two additional products. Pursuant to this agreement, Actavis will supply these products to us at a specified transfer price and will receive a specified percentage of the net profit from sales of such products. In March 2013, we agreed to with Actavis to terminate the development, manufacturing and supply agreement, effective December 31, 2014. As consideration for the termination of the agreement, we will receive a greater percentage of the net profit from sales of products during the remaining term of the agreement and a one-time payment of $5,000. As of December 31, 2013, this agreement with Actavis covered ten marketed products.

The table below summarizes our estimate for contingent potential milestone payments and fees for the year ended December 31, 2013 and beyond assuming all contingent milestone payments occur. These payments do not include sales-based royalty payments, which are dependent on the introduction of new products. As new products are launched, sales-based royalty payments are recognized as an element of cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations.

Contingent milestone payments are as follows at December 31, 2013:

2014		18,805
2015		7,528
2016		2,293
2017		3,227

Leases

We have entered into various operating lease agreements for office space, communications, information technology equipment and software, and office equipment. Total rental expense amounted to $431, $467 and $422 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

As of December 31, 2013, total future annual minimum lease payments related to noncancelable operating leases are as follows:

2014		297
2015		306
2016		315
Total	$	918

Regulatory Matters

We are subject to regulatory oversight by the FDA and other regulatory authorities with respect to the development, manufacturing and sale of our products. Failure to comply with regulatory requirements could have a significant adverse effect on our business and operations.

Litigation

From time to time, we are subject to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims may include assertions that our products infringe existing patents and claims that the use of our products has caused personal injuries. We intend to vigorously defend any such litigation that may arise under all defenses that would be available to us. Currently, we are party to the following claim.

Zoledronic Acid (Generic versions of Zometa^® and Reclast^®). On February 20, 2013, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation (“Novartis”) sued the Company and several other defendants in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging, among other things, that sales of the Company’s (i) zoledronic acid premix bag (4mg/100ml), made by ACS Dobfar Info S.A. (“Info”), also a defendant, a generic version of Novartis’ Zometa^® ready to use bottle, would infringe U.S. Patent No. 7,932,241 (the “241 Patent”) and U.S. Patent No. 8,324,189 (the “189 Patent”) and (ii) zoledronic acid premix bag (5mg/100ml), also made by Info, a generic version of Novartis’ Reclast^® ready to use bottle, would infringe U.S. Patent No. 8,052,987 and the 241 Patent, and (iii) zoledronic acid vial (4mg/5ml), made by Actavis LLC, also a defendant, a generic version of Novartis’ Zometa^® vial, would infringe the 189 Patent. (Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation v. Actavis, LLC, et. al., Case No. 13-cv-1028) On March 1, 2013, the District Court denied Novartis’ request for a temporary restraining order against the Company and the other defendants, including Actavis and Info. On March 6, 2013, the Company, began selling Actavis’ zoledronic acid vial, the generic version of Zometa^®. Also, as of August 27, 2013 and October 1, 2013, the Company began selling zoledronic acid premix bags in 4mg/100ml and 5mg/100ml presentations, respectively. The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the case, and the Company has sold and will continue to sell these products. While an estimate of the potential loss resulting from an adverse final determination that one of the patents in suit is valid and infringed cannot currently be made as specific monetary damages have not been asserted, an adverse final determination could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

At this time, there are no other proceedings of which we are aware that are considered likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Nature of Operations

Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Sagent”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a specialty pharmaceutical company that develops, sources, manufactures and markets pharmaceutical products, principally injectable-based generic equivalents to branded products. We completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) on April 26, 2011. In connection with our IPO, we incorporated (the “Reincorporation”) in Delaware as Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Prior to the Reincorporation, we were a Cayman Islands company, and our corporate name was Sagent Holding Co. (“Sagent Holding”). Our products are typically sold to pharmaceutical wholesale companies which then distribute the products to end-user hospitals, long-term care facilities, alternate care sites, and clinics. The injectable pharmaceutical marketplace is comprised of end users who have relationships with group purchasing organizations (GPOs) or specialty distributors that focus on a particular therapeutic class. GPOs enter into product purchasing agreements with Sagent and other pharmaceutical suppliers for products in an effort to secure favorable drug pricing on behalf of their end-user members.

We are organized as a single reportable segment comprised of operations which develop, source, manufacture and market generic injectable products for sale in the United States, deriving a significant portion of our revenues from a single class of pharmaceutical wholesale customers within the United States.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

The consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On June 4, 2013, we acquired the remaining 50% equity interest in Kanghong Sagent (Chengdu) Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (“KSCP”) from our former joint venture partner (the “SCP Acquisition”), and accordingly, the consolidated financial statements since that date include KSCP as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Prior to the SCP Acquisition, we accounted for our investment in KSCP using the equity method of accounting, as our interest in the entity provided for joint financial and operational control, and operating results of KSCP were reported on a one-month lag. In August 2013, we formally changed the name of this entity to Sagent (China) Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (“SCP”).

Sagent Agila LLC (“Sagent Agila”) is a joint venture incorporated in Wyoming with Strides Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Strides Arcolab International Limited (“Strides”), established in January 2007 with the principal business of development, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of generic pharmaceutical products to the U.S. market. In December 2013, Mylan Inc. (“Mylan”) acquired Strides’ Agila Specialities Pvt. Ltd., subsidiary (“Agila”), including Strides’ ownership share of the Sagent Agila joint venture.

We account for our 50% interest in Sagent Agila under the equity method of accounting as our interest in the entity provides for joint financial and operational control. Sagent’s equity in the net income (loss) of Sagent Agila is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as equity in net income (loss) of joint ventures.

Reincorporation

In connection with our 2011 IPO and concurrent with our Reincorporation in Delaware, the holders of our preferred stock exchanged each of their outstanding shares of preferred stock for 0.12759 shares of our common stock.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currencies

We translate the results of operations of our foreign subsidiary using average exchange rates during each period, whereas balance sheet accounts are translated using exchange rates at the end of each period. We record currency translation adjustments as a component of equity. Transaction gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other in the statements of operations and were not significant for any of the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents and other current monetary assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid money market instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. These amounts are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. At December 31, 2013, cash equivalents were deposited in financial institutions and consisted of immediately available fund balances. The majority of our funds at December 31, 2013 were maintained at two stable financial institutions, each in an amount in excess of federally insured limits. This represents a concentration of credit risk. We have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents to date.

Cash collateral pledged under various lease agreements and cash restricted by financing agreements is classified as restricted cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as our ability to withdraw the funds is contractually limited.

Financial Instruments

We consider all highly liquid money market investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The fair values of these investments approximate their carrying values. Investments with original maturities of greater than three months and remaining maturities of less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Investments with maturities beyond one year are classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. All cash equivalents and short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale and realized gains and losses are recorded using the specific identification method. Changes in market value, excluding other-than-temporary impairments, are reflected in other comprehensive income (“OCI”).

Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. Fair value is calculated based on publicly available market information or other estimates determined by management. We employ a systematic methodology on a quarterly basis that considers available quantitative and qualitative evidence in evaluating potential impairment of our investments. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, we evaluate, among other factors, general market conditions, credit quality of debt instrument issuers, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost, and for equity securities, our intent and ability to hold, or plans to sell, the investment. For fixed income securities, we also evaluate whether we have plans to sell the security or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery. We also consider specific adverse conditions related to the financial health of and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, changes in technology, and operational and financing cash flow factors. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded to other expense and a new cost basis in the investment is established.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market value. Inventories consist of products currently approved for marketing and may include certain products pending regulatory approval. From time to time, we capitalize inventory costs associated with products prior to receiving regulatory approval based on our judgment of probable future commercial success and realizable value. Such judgment incorporates management’s knowledge and best judgment of where the product is in the regulatory review process, market conditions, competing products and economic expectations for the product post-approval relative to the risk of manufacturing the product prior to approval. If final regulatory approval for such products is denied or delayed, we may need to reserve for and expense such inventory.

We establish reserves for inventory to reflect situations in which the cost of the inventory is not expected to be recovered. In evaluating whether inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, management considers such factors as the amount of inventory on hand, estimated time required to sell such inventory, remaining shelf life and current expected market conditions, including level of competition. We record provisions for inventory to cost of goods sold.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed when incurred, while expenditures for refurbishments and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Provisions for depreciation are computed for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset and for leasehold improvements over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the related asset or the term of the related lease as follows:

Land and land improvements	Remaining term of Chinese land use right (June 2057)
Building and improvements	5 to 40 years or remaining term of lease
Machinery, equipment, furniture, and fixtures	3 to 10 years

Property, plant and equipment that is purchased or constructed which requires a period of time before the assets are ready for their intended use are accounted for as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is recorded at acquisition cost, including installation costs and associated interest costs. Construction-in-progress is transferred to specific property, plant and equipment accounts and commences depreciation when these assets are ready for their intended use. The capitalization of interest costs commences when expenditures for the asset have been made, activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use are in progress and interest cost is being incurred. The capitalization period ends when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs related to the issuance of debt are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related debt instrument, which approximates the effective interest method. We capitalized deferred financing costs of $28 and $284 in 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to our SVB revolving loan facility and our former senior secured revolving credit facility and term loan credit facility. Deferred financing costs are recorded within Other Assets on our consolidated balance sheets, and totaled $206 and $268 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate long-lived assets, including intangible assets with definite lives, for impairment whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may no longer be recoverable. An evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the carrying values of the assets to projected future undiscounted cash flows, in addition to other quantitative and qualitative analyses. Judgments made by management related to the expected useful lives of long-lived assets and the ability to realize undiscounted cash flows in excess of the carrying amounts of such assets are affected by factors such as changes in economic conditions and changes in operating performance. Upon indication that the carrying values of such assets may not be recoverable, we recognize an impairment loss as a charge against current operations. We recorded an impairment charge within cost of sales of $44 related to one product license right in the year ended December 31, 2013. No impairment charges were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2012 or 2011.

Product Development Agreements

Product development costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our internal product development efforts and acquired in-process research and development, as well as product development costs incurred in connection with our third-party collaboration efforts. Non-refundable milestone payments made under contract research and development arrangements or product licensing arrangements prior to regulatory approval may be deferred and are expensed as the related services are delivered and the milestone is achieved. If we determine that it is no longer probable that the product will be pursued, any related capitalized amount is expensed in the current period.

Once a product receives regulatory approval, we record any subsequent milestone payments as an intangible asset to be amortized on a straight-line basis as a component of cost of sales over the related license period or the estimated life of the acquired product. At December 31, 2013, the amortization period for intangible assets arising from approved products ranges from five to eight years with a weighted-average period prior to the next renewal or extension of six years. We make the determination whether to capitalize or expense amounts related to the development of new products and technologies through agreements with third parties based on our ability to recover our cost in a reasonable period of time from the estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated pursuant to each agreement. Market, regulatory, and legal factors, among other things, may affect the realizability of the projected cash flows that an agreement was initially expected to generate. We regularly monitor these factors and subject capitalized costs to periodic impairment testing.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is recognized as the excess of fair value of consideration transferred to acquire an entity over the fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather tested for impairment on an annual basis and more often if circumstances require. We assess goodwill impairment risk by first performing a qualitative review of entity-specific, industry, market and general economic factors for our reporting unit. If significant potential goodwill impairment risk exists, we apply a two-step quantitative test. Impairment losses are recognized whenever the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually on October 1. No impairment of goodwill was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2013.

Certain amounts paid to third parties that are capitalized related to the development of new products and technologies are included within intangible assets. We determine the estimated fair values of certain intangible assets with definitive lives utilizing valuations performed by management at the time of their acquisition, based on anticipated future cash flow activity.

We test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by first performing a qualitative review by assessing events and circumstances that could affect the fair value or carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. If significant potential impairment risk exists for a specific non-amortizable intangible asset, we quantitatively test for impairment by comparing the fair value of each intangible asset with its carrying value. Fair value of non-amortizable intangible assets is determined using planned growth rates, market-based discount rates and estimates of royalty rates. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value, the intangible asset is considered impaired and is reduced to its estimated fair value.

Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and evaluated for impairment as long-lived assets.

Acquired In-Process Research and Development

The fair value of in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) projects acquired in a business combination are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until the underlying project receives regulatory approval, at which point the intangible asset will be accounted for as a definite-lived intangible asset, or discontinuation, at which point the intangible asset will be written off. Development costs incurred after the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Indefinite- and definite-lived assets are subject to impairment reviews as discussed previously.

Advertising and Promotion Expense

All advertising and promotion costs are expensed as selling, general, and administrative expenses when incurred. Total direct advertising and promotion expense incurred was $766, $683, and $679 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the financial statements in the period that includes the legislative enactment date. We recognize the financial statement effects of a tax position only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination and recognize any interest and penalties accrued in relation to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. We establish valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the realization of those deferred tax assets will not occur.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We also consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income or losses, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon our history of aggregate tax losses over the past three years, we do not believe realization of these tax assets is more likely than not. As such, full valuation allowances for the deferred tax assets were established.

Revenue Recognition – General

We recognize revenue when our obligations to a customer are fulfilled relative to a specific product and all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectability is reasonably assured; and (iv) delivery has occurred. Delivery is deemed to have occurred upon customer receipt of product, upon fulfillment of acceptance terms, if any, and when no significant contractual obligations remain. Net sales reflect reductions of gross sales for estimated wholesaler chargebacks, estimated contractual allowances, and estimated early payment discounts. We provide for estimated returns at the time of sale based on historic product return experience.

In the case of new products for which the product introduction is not an extension of an existing line of product, where we determine that there are not products in a similar therapeutic category, or where we determine the new product has dissimilar characteristics with existing products, such that we cannot reliably estimate expected returns of the new product, we defer recognition of revenue until the right of return no longer exists or until we have developed sufficient historical experience to estimate sales returns.

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized in net revenue. Other shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

Revenue Recognition – Chargebacks

The majority of our products are distributed through independent pharmaceutical wholesalers. In accordance with industry practice, sales to wholesalers are initially transacted at wholesale list price. The wholesalers then generally sell to an end user, normally a hospital, alternative healthcare facility, or an independent pharmacy, at a lower price previously contractually established between the end user and Sagent.

When we initially record a sale to a wholesaler, the sale and resulting receivable are recorded at our list price. However, experience indicates that most of these selling prices will eventually be reduced to a lower, end-user contract price. Therefore, at the time of the sale, a contra asset is recorded for, and revenue is reduced by, the difference between the list price and the estimated average end-user contract price. This contra asset is calculated by product code, taking the expected number of outstanding wholesale units sold that will ultimately be sold under end-user contracts multiplied by the anticipated, weighted-average contract price. When the wholesaler ultimately sells the product, the wholesaler charges us, or issues a chargeback, for the difference between the list price and the end-user contract price and such chargeback is offset against the initial estimated contra asset. Periodically, we review the wholesale list prices for our products, and from time to time may reduce list prices based on market conditions or competitive pricing pressures. Reductions in the wholesale list price of our products reduce both our gross sales and the revenue reduction recorded upon initial product sale, but do not change the end-user contract selling price.

The significant estimates inherent in the initial chargeback provision relate to wholesale units pending chargeback and to the ultimate end-user contract-selling price. We base the estimate for these factors on product-specific sales and internal chargeback processing experience, estimated wholesaler inventory stocking levels, current contract pricing and our expectation for future contract pricing changes. Our chargeback provision is potentially impacted by a number of market conditions, including: competitive pricing, competitive products, and other changes impacting demand in both the distribution channel and end users.

We rely on internal data, external data from our wholesaler customers, and management estimates to estimate the amount of inventory in the channel subject to future chargeback. The amount of product in the channel is comprised of both product at the wholesaler and product that the wholesaler has sold, but not yet reported as end-user sales. Physical inventory in the channel is estimated by the evaluation of our monthly sales to the wholesalers and our knowledge of inventory levels and estimated inventory turnover at these wholesalers.

Our total chargeback accrual was $43,682 and $24,265 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable. Our total chargeback expense was $300,835, $166,051 and $167,521 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Revenue Recognition – Cash Discounts

We offer cash discounts, approximating 2% of the gross sales price, as an incentive for prompt payment and occasionally offer greater discounts and extended payment terms in support of product launches or other promotional programs. Our wholesale customers typically pay within terms, and we account for cash discounts by reducing net sales and accounts receivable by the full amount of the discount offered at the time of sale. We consider payment performance and adjust the accrual to reflect actual experience.

Our total accrual for cash discounts was $2,414 and $1,373 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable.

Revenue Recognition – Sales Returns

Consistent with industry practice, our return policy permits customers to return products within a window of time before and after the expiration of product dating. We provide for product returns and other customer credits at the time of sale by applying historical experience factors. We provide specifically for known outstanding returns and credits. The effect of any changes in estimated returns is taken in the current period’s income.

For returns of established products, we determine our estimate of the sales return accrual primarily based on historical experience, but also consider other factors that could impact sales returns. These factors include levels of inventory in the distribution channel, estimated shelf life, product recalls, timing of product returns relative to expiry, product discontinuances, price changes of competitive products, and introductions of competitive new products.

Our total accrual for returns and credits was $4,895 and $3,262 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable.

Revenue Recognition – Contractual Allowances

Contractual allowances, generally rebates or administrative fees, are offered to certain wholesale customers, GPOs, and end-user customers, consistent with pharmaceutical industry practices. Settlement of rebates and fees may generally occur from one to five months from date of sale. We provide a provision for contractual allowances at the time of sale based on the historical relationship between sales and such allowances. Contractual allowances are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a reduction of revenues and as a current accrued liability.

Stock Based Compensation

We recognize compensation cost for all share-based payments (including employee stock options) at fair value. We use the straight-line attribution method to recognize stock based compensation expense over the vesting period of the award. Options currently granted generally expire ten years from the grant date and vest ratably over a four-year period.

Stock based compensation expense for performance based options is measured and recognized if the performance measures are considered probable of being achieved. We evaluate the probability of the achievement of the performance measures at each balance sheet date. If it is not probable that the performance measures will be achieved, any previously recognized compensation cost would be reversed.

Stock based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is measured and recognized at fair value on a periodic basis.

We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of options granted under our equity incentive plans and rights to acquire stock granted under the stock participation plan. Stock-based compensation expense was $5,293, $5,552 and $2,545 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Transaction gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other in the statements of operations and were not significant for any of the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents and other current monetary assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid money market instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. These amounts are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. At December 31, 2013, cash equivalents were deposited in financial institutions and consisted of immediately available fund balances. The majority of our funds at December 31, 2013 were maintained at two stable financial institutions, each in an amount in excess of federally insured limits. This represents a concentration of credit risk. We have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents to date.

Cash collateral pledged under various lease agreements and cash restricted by financing agreements is classified as restricted cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as our ability to withdraw the funds is contractually limited.

Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments

We consider all highly liquid money market investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The fair values of these investments approximate their carrying values. Investments with original maturities of greater than three months and remaining maturities of less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Investments with maturities beyond one year are classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. All cash equivalents and short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale and realized gains and losses are recorded using the specific identification method. Changes in market value, excluding other-than-temporary impairments, are reflected in other comprehensive income (“OCI”).

Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. Fair value is calculated based on publicly available market information or other estimates determined by management. We employ a systematic methodology on a quarterly basis that considers available quantitative and qualitative evidence in evaluating potential impairment of our investments. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, we evaluate, among other factors, general market conditions, credit quality of debt instrument issuers, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost, and for equity securities, our intent and ability to hold, or plans to sell, the investment. For fixed income securities, we also evaluate whether we have plans to sell the security or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery. We also consider specific adverse conditions related to the financial health of and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, changes in technology, and operational and financing cash flow factors. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded to other expense and a new cost basis in the investment is established.

Inventories

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market value. Inventories consist of products currently approved for marketing and may include certain products pending regulatory approval. From time to time, we capitalize inventory costs associated with products prior to receiving regulatory approval based on our judgment of probable future commercial success and realizable value. Such judgment incorporates management’s knowledge and best judgment of where the product is in the regulatory review process, market conditions, competing products and economic expectations for the product post-approval relative to the risk of manufacturing the product prior to approval. If final regulatory approval for such products is denied or delayed, we may need to reserve for and expense such inventory.

We establish reserves for inventory to reflect situations in which the cost of the inventory is not expected to be recovered. In evaluating whether inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, management considers such factors as the amount of inventory on hand, estimated time required to sell such inventory, remaining shelf life and current expected market conditions, including level of competition. We record provisions for inventory to cost of goods sold.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed when incurred, while expenditures for refurbishments and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Provisions for depreciation are computed for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset and for leasehold improvements over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the related asset or the term of the related lease as follows:

Land and land improvements	Remaining term of Chinese land use right (June 2057)
Building and improvements	5 to 40 years or remaining term of lease
Machinery, equipment, furniture, and fixtures	3 to 10 years

Property, plant and equipment that is purchased or constructed which requires a period of time before the assets are ready for their intended use are accounted for as construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is recorded at acquisition cost, including installation costs and associated interest costs. Construction-in-progress is transferred to specific property, plant and equipment accounts and commences depreciation when these assets are ready for their intended use. The capitalization of interest costs commences when expenditures for the asset have been made, activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use are in progress and interest cost is being incurred. The capitalization period ends when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs related to the issuance of debt are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related debt instrument, which approximates the effective interest method. We capitalized deferred financing costs of $28 and $284 in 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to our SVB revolving loan facility and our former senior secured revolving credit facility and term loan credit facility. Deferred financing costs are recorded within Other Assets on our consolidated balance sheets, and totaled $206 and $268 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate long-lived assets, including intangible assets with definite lives, for impairment whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may no longer be recoverable. An evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the carrying values of the assets to projected future undiscounted cash flows, in addition to other quantitative and qualitative analyses. Judgments made by management related to the expected useful lives of long-lived assets and the ability to realize undiscounted cash flows in excess of the carrying amounts of such assets are affected by factors such as changes in economic conditions and changes in operating performance. Upon indication that the carrying values of such assets may not be recoverable, we recognize an impairment loss as a charge against current operations. We recorded an impairment charge within cost of sales of $44 related to one product license right in the year ended December 31, 2013. No impairment charges were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2012 or 2011.

Product Development Agreements

Product Development Agreements

Product development costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our internal product development efforts and acquired in-process research and development, as well as product development costs incurred in connection with our third-party collaboration efforts. Non-refundable milestone payments made under contract research and development arrangements or product licensing arrangements prior to regulatory approval may be deferred and are expensed as the related services are delivered and the milestone is achieved. If we determine that it is no longer probable that the product will be pursued, any related capitalized amount is expensed in the current period.

Once a product receives regulatory approval, we record any subsequent milestone payments as an intangible asset to be amortized on a straight-line basis as a component of cost of sales over the related license period or the estimated life of the acquired product. At December 31, 2013, the amortization period for intangible assets arising from approved products ranges from five to eight years with a weighted-average period prior to the next renewal or extension of six years. We make the determination whether to capitalize or expense amounts related to the development of new products and technologies through agreements with third parties based on our ability to recover our cost in a reasonable period of time from the estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated pursuant to each agreement. Market, regulatory, and legal factors, among other things, may affect the realizability of the projected cash flows that an agreement was initially expected to generate. We regularly monitor these factors and subject capitalized costs to periodic impairment testing.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is recognized as the excess of fair value of consideration transferred to acquire an entity over the fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather tested for impairment on an annual basis and more often if circumstances require. We assess goodwill impairment risk by first performing a qualitative review of entity-specific, industry, market and general economic factors for our reporting unit. If significant potential goodwill impairment risk exists, we apply a two-step quantitative test. Impairment losses are recognized whenever the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually on October 1. No impairment of goodwill was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2013.

Certain amounts paid to third parties that are capitalized related to the development of new products and technologies are included within intangible assets. We determine the estimated fair values of certain intangible assets with definitive lives utilizing valuations performed by management at the time of their acquisition, based on anticipated future cash flow activity.

We test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by first performing a qualitative review by assessing events and circumstances that could affect the fair value or carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. If significant potential impairment risk exists for a specific non-amortizable intangible asset, we quantitatively test for impairment by comparing the fair value of each intangible asset with its carrying value. Fair value of non-amortizable intangible assets is determined using planned growth rates, market-based discount rates and estimates of royalty rates. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value, the intangible asset is considered impaired and is reduced to its estimated fair value.

Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and evaluated for impairment as long-lived assets.

Acquired In-Process Research and Development

Acquired In-Process Research and Development

The fair value of in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) projects acquired in a business combination are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until the underlying project receives regulatory approval, at which point the intangible asset will be accounted for as a definite-lived intangible asset, or discontinuation, at which point the intangible asset will be written off. Development costs incurred after the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Indefinite- and definite-lived assets are subject to impairment reviews as discussed previously.

Advertising and Promotion Expense

Advertising and Promotion Expense

All advertising and promotion costs are expensed as selling, general, and administrative expenses when incurred. Total direct advertising and promotion expense incurred was $766, $683, and $679 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the financial statements in the period that includes the legislative enactment date. We recognize the financial statement effects of a tax position only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination and recognize any interest and penalties accrued in relation to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. We establish valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the realization of those deferred tax assets will not occur.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We also consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income or losses, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon our history of aggregate tax losses over the past three years, we do not believe realization of these tax assets is more likely than not. As such, full valuation allowances for the deferred tax assets were established.

Revenue Recognition - General

Revenue Recognition – General

We recognize revenue when our obligations to a customer are fulfilled relative to a specific product and all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectability is reasonably assured; and (iv) delivery has occurred. Delivery is deemed to have occurred upon customer receipt of product, upon fulfillment of acceptance terms, if any, and when no significant contractual obligations remain. Net sales reflect reductions of gross sales for estimated wholesaler chargebacks, estimated contractual allowances, and estimated early payment discounts. We provide for estimated returns at the time of sale based on historic product return experience.

In the case of new products for which the product introduction is not an extension of an existing line of product, where we determine that there are not products in a similar therapeutic category, or where we determine the new product has dissimilar characteristics with existing products, such that we cannot reliably estimate expected returns of the new product, we defer recognition of revenue until the right of return no longer exists or until we have developed sufficient historical experience to estimate sales returns.

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized in net revenue. Other shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

Revenue Recognition - Chargebacks

Revenue Recognition – Chargebacks

The majority of our products are distributed through independent pharmaceutical wholesalers. In accordance with industry practice, sales to wholesalers are initially transacted at wholesale list price. The wholesalers then generally sell to an end user, normally a hospital, alternative healthcare facility, or an independent pharmacy, at a lower price previously contractually established between the end user and Sagent.

When we initially record a sale to a wholesaler, the sale and resulting receivable are recorded at our list price. However, experience indicates that most of these selling prices will eventually be reduced to a lower, end-user contract price. Therefore, at the time of the sale, a contra asset is recorded for, and revenue is reduced by, the difference between the list price and the estimated average end-user contract price. This contra asset is calculated by product code, taking the expected number of outstanding wholesale units sold that will ultimately be sold under end-user contracts multiplied by the anticipated, weighted-average contract price. When the wholesaler ultimately sells the product, the wholesaler charges us, or issues a chargeback, for the difference between the list price and the end-user contract price and such chargeback is offset against the initial estimated contra asset. Periodically, we review the wholesale list prices for our products, and from time to time may reduce list prices based on market conditions or competitive pricing pressures. Reductions in the wholesale list price of our products reduce both our gross sales and the revenue reduction recorded upon initial product sale, but do not change the end-user contract selling price.

The significant estimates inherent in the initial chargeback provision relate to wholesale units pending chargeback and to the ultimate end-user contract-selling price. We base the estimate for these factors on product-specific sales and internal chargeback processing experience, estimated wholesaler inventory stocking levels, current contract pricing and our expectation for future contract pricing changes. Our chargeback provision is potentially impacted by a number of market conditions, including: competitive pricing, competitive products, and other changes impacting demand in both the distribution channel and end users.

We rely on internal data, external data from our wholesaler customers, and management estimates to estimate the amount of inventory in the channel subject to future chargeback. The amount of product in the channel is comprised of both product at the wholesaler and product that the wholesaler has sold, but not yet reported as end-user sales. Physical inventory in the channel is estimated by the evaluation of our monthly sales to the wholesalers and our knowledge of inventory levels and estimated inventory turnover at these wholesalers.

Our total chargeback accrual was $43,682 and $24,265 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable. Our total chargeback expense was $300,835, $166,051 and $167,521 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Revenue Recognition - Cash Discounts

Revenue Recognition – Cash Discounts

We offer cash discounts, approximating 2% of the gross sales price, as an incentive for prompt payment and occasionally offer greater discounts and extended payment terms in support of product launches or other promotional programs. Our wholesale customers typically pay within terms, and we account for cash discounts by reducing net sales and accounts receivable by the full amount of the discount offered at the time of sale. We consider payment performance and adjust the accrual to reflect actual experience.

Our total accrual for cash discounts was $2,414 and $1,373 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable.

Revenue Recognition - Sales Returns

Revenue Recognition – Sales Returns

Consistent with industry practice, our return policy permits customers to return products within a window of time before and after the expiration of product dating. We provide for product returns and other customer credits at the time of sale by applying historical experience factors. We provide specifically for known outstanding returns and credits. The effect of any changes in estimated returns is taken in the current period’s income.

For returns of established products, we determine our estimate of the sales return accrual primarily based on historical experience, but also consider other factors that could impact sales returns. These factors include levels of inventory in the distribution channel, estimated shelf life, product recalls, timing of product returns relative to expiry, product discontinuances, price changes of competitive products, and introductions of competitive new products.

Our total accrual for returns and credits was $4,895 and $3,262 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included as a reduction of accounts receivable.

Revenue Recognition - Contractual Allowances

Revenue Recognition – Contractual Allowances

Contractual allowances, generally rebates or administrative fees, are offered to certain wholesale customers, GPOs, and end-user customers, consistent with pharmaceutical industry practices. Settlement of rebates and fees may generally occur from one to five months from date of sale. We provide a provision for contractual allowances at the time of sale based on the historical relationship between sales and such allowances. Contractual allowances are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a reduction of revenues and as a current accrued liability.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock Based Compensation

We recognize compensation cost for all share-based payments (including employee stock options) at fair value. We use the straight-line attribution method to recognize stock based compensation expense over the vesting period of the award. Options currently granted generally expire ten years from the grant date and vest ratably over a four-year period.

Stock based compensation expense for performance based options is measured and recognized if the performance measures are considered probable of being achieved. We evaluate the probability of the achievement of the performance measures at each balance sheet date. If it is not probable that the performance measures will be achieved, any previously recognized compensation cost would be reversed.

Stock based compensation expense for cash-settled awards is measured and recognized at fair value on a periodic basis.

We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of options granted under our equity incentive plans and rights to acquire stock granted under the stock participation plan. Stock-based compensation expense was $5,293, $5,552 and $2,545 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Debt

Note 11. Debt

Credit facilities acquired under the SCP Acquisition

In connection with the acquisition of the remaining 50% equity interest in SCP, we assumed two loan contracts with the Agricultural Bank of China Ltd. in the amount of RMB 37,000 ($6,069) and RMB 83,000 ($13,613) originally entered into in June 2011 and August 2010, respectively, (the “ABC Loans”) each with a five year term. Amounts outstanding under the ABC Loans bear an interest rate equal to the benchmark lending interest rate published by the People’s Bank of China. During the term of the loan, the rate is subject to adjustment every three months. The ABC Loans are secured by the property, plant and equipment of SCP. As of December 31, 2013, RMB 63,000 ($10,333) was outstanding under the ABC Loans, at an interest rate of 6.00% per annum. As the interest rate resets on a quarterly basis, the fair value of our long-term debt approximates its carrying value. Repayment will be accelerated if the liabilities to assets ratio exceed 70% and 80% during the term of the RMB 37,000 and RMB 83,000 credit facilities, respectively, or if our SCP subsidiary is unable to achieve 50% of its projected revenues when it commences commercial activities.

On January 2, 2014, we repaid in full the then-outstanding balance of the ABC Loans, totaling RMB 63.0 million ($10.3 million). Upon prepayment of the ABC Loans, the loan contracts were terminated. No early termination fees were incurred as part of the prepayment of the ABC Loans.

Silicon Valley Bank Loan and Security Agreement

In 2009, our principal operating subsidiary entered into a $15,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) with Midcap Financial, LLC (“Midcap”), which was to expire in June 2012. In December 2010, the Revolver was amended to increase the facility by $10,000, to $25,000, and the expiration date was extended to June 2013. In March 2011, our principal operating subsidiary amended the Revolver to permit, among other things, the entry into a new $15,000 term loan credit facility (the “Term Loan”) and the incurrence of debt and granting of liens thereunder. The amendment also required that we become a borrower under the Revolver. The Revolver and Term Loan were further amended in September 2011 primarily to include our parent company as a co-borrower under the facilities. Availability under the Revolver was based on our accounts receivable and inventory balances, and was $24,867 as of December 31, 2011. All available amounts as of this date had been drawn, with the net proceeds of the notes having been used for general corporate purposes. Financing costs associated with the Revolver, including commitment fees, were deferred and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the agreement.

The interest rate on the Revolver, which bore interest at a rate equal to either an adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a margin of 5.50%, or an alternate base rate plus a margin of 4.50%, was 8.50% at December 31, 2011.

In March 2011, our principal operating subsidiary entered into a $15,000 Term Loan with Midcap as agent and lender, and Silicon Valley Bank as lender. The interest rate on the Term Loan, which bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 9.0%, subject to a 3.0% LIBOR floor, was 12.0% at December 31, 2011. Equal monthly amortization payments in respect to the Term Loan were payable beginning September 1, 2011. Under the agreement, we were required to maintain the lesser of $15,000 or 65% of our consolidated cash balances with a single financial institution and were also required to pay a financing fee of $600 when the Term Loan was repaid. The financing fee was amortized to interest expense over the life of the loan, and the related obligation was included in other long-term liabilities on our balance sheet.

In February 2012, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “SVB Agreement”). The SVB Agreement provides for a $40,000 asset based revolving loan facility, with availability subject to a borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and inventory and the satisfaction of conditions precedent specified in the SVB Agreement. The SVB Agreement matures on February 13, 2016, at which time all outstanding amounts will become due and payable. Borrowings under the SVB Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including funding working capital. Amounts drawn bear an interest rate equal to, at our option, either a Eurodollar rate plus 2.50% per annum or an alternative base rate plus 1.50% per annum. We also pay a commitment fee on undrawn amounts equal to 0.30% per annum.

The SVB Agreement contains various customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants restrict our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create or permit to exist liens, make certain investments, dividends and other payments in respect of capital stock, sell assets or otherwise dispose of our property, change our lines of business, or enter into a merger or acquisition, in each case, subject to thresholds and exceptions as set forth in the SVB Agreement. The financial covenants in the SVB Agreement are limited to maintenance of a minimum adjusted quick ratio and a minimum free cash flow. The SVB Agreement also contains customary events of default, including non-payment of principal, interest and other fees after stated grace periods, violations of covenants, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, certain bankruptcy and liquidation events, certain material judgments and attachment events, cross-default to other debt in excess of a specified amount and material agreements, failure to maintain certain material governmental approvals, and actual or asserted invalidity of subordination terms, guarantees and collateral, in each case, subject to grace periods, thresholds and exceptions as set forth in the SVB Agreement.

During the continuance of an event of default, at Silicon Valley Bank’s option, all obligations will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 5.00% per annum above the otherwise applicable rate. At March 31, 2012, we were not in compliance with the free cash flow covenant in the SVB Agreement. On May 10, 2012, Silicon Valley Bank agreed to waive our non-compliance with the covenant at March 31, 2012 and modified the covenant for the remainder of 2012. In connection with the waiver and modification, we paid a fee of $100. As of December 31, 2012, no borrowings were outstanding and we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the SVB Agreement.

Concurrent with entering into the SVB Agreement, we repaid in full with cash on hand all outstanding amounts under our former Term Loan and Revolver, plus certain associated fees, and terminated the agent’s and lender’s commitments to extend further credit under those facilities. Concurrent with the repayment and termination of these agreements, all liens and security interests against our property that secured the obligations under these agreements were released and discharged. Loans under the SVB Agreement are secured by a lien on substantially all of our and our principal operating subsidiary’s assets, other than our equity interests in our joint ventures and certain other limited exceptions.

As part of the termination of these prior agreements, we were required to pay to the lenders under those facilities $1,500 of early termination fees and a $600 exit fee associated with the Term Loan; however, $1,050 of such fees owing to Silicon Valley Bank under these agreements were deferred in connection with the execution of the SVB Agreement and will only be payable upon the occurrence of certain early termination events as set forth in the SVB Agreement. We have accounted for the termination of these prior agreements as the extinguishment of the Term Loan, and the partial extinguishment of the Revolver. We recorded $1,124 in the year ended December 31, 2012 to account for early termination fees and the acceleration of deferred financing costs related to the partial extinguishment of these facilities within interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

On September 23, 2013, we entered into a Second Loan Modification Agreement to the SVB Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Modification”). The Modification altered the calculation methodology of the borrowing base that is used to determine our borrowing availability and the covenant for the Adjusted Quick Ratio tested at the end of each month and eliminated the covenant to maintain a specified level of free cash flow in quarters where we maintain eligible cash balances of $30 million or greater. We did not amend the term, the maximum availability, or the interest rate applicable to the amounts drawn under the SVB Agreement. As of December 31, 2013, no borrowings were outstanding and we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the SVB Agreement

Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

Note 4. Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

We typically establish multi-year contractual agreements with GPOs and individual hospital groups to offer our products to end-user customers. As is common in the pharmaceutical industry, a significant amount of our pharmaceutical products are sold to end users under these GPO contracts through a relatively small number of drug wholesalers, which comprise the primary pharmaceutical distribution chain in the United States. Three wholesalers collectively represented approximately 84%, 82% and 83% of net revenue in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and represented approximately 87% and 89% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. To help control our credit exposure, we routinely monitor the creditworthiness of customers, review outstanding customer balances, and record allowances for bad debts as necessary. Historical credit loss has not been significant. We had a reserve of $23 and $124 for bad debts as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We do not require collateral.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

Note 17. Stock-Based Compensation

Prior to the initial public offering, we had a stock plan, the 2007 Global Share Plan (the “2007 Plan”), for key employees and nonemployees, which provided for the grant of nonqualified and incentive stock options and/or shares of restricted stock, deferred stock, and other equity awards in our common stock. Concurrent with the initial public offering, our Board adopted the 2011 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2011 Plan”, with the 2007 Plan, the “Plans”), for employees and nonemployees, which provides for the grant of nonqualified and incentive stock options and/or shares of restricted stock, deferred stock and other equity awards in our common stock. The Board administers the Plans. A total of 2,475,184 and 4,000,000 shares are authorized under the 2007 Plan and 2011 Plan, respectively, as of December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, we had 413,036 shares of common stock available for grant under the 2007 Plan and 2,600,488 shares of common stock available for grant under the 2011 Plan.

Stock options, exercisable for shares of our common stock, generally vest over a four-year period from the grant date and expire ten years from the grant date. The strike price of the options granted under the 2007 Plan is established at or above the fair value of our stock as of the grant date. The strike price of stock options granted under the 2011 Plan is established as the closing price of our stock on the business day prior to the grant date.

In 2010, the Board approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan which permits employees to exercise their stock options prior to vesting. Once purchased, we have the right to repurchase unvested stock from the employee upon termination of their services. The repurchase price is equal to the original exercise price of the option.

Restricted Stock

The Company measures the fair value of the restricted stock on the date of grant based on the estimated fair value of the common stock on that day. The fair value is amortized to stock-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, ratably over the vesting period. As of December 31, 2013, the total amount of unrecognized stock-based compensation related to grants of restricted stock was approximately $1,257. The Company expects to recognize this expense over an average period of approximately 33 months. The following table summarizes restricted stock activity during the year ended December 31, 2013:

	Restricted stock			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Balance at January 1, 2013		50,039		$	19.93
Granted		56,224			16.65
Vested		(9,677	)		14.92
Forfeited		(7,378	)		9.31
Balance at December 31, 2013		89,208		$	18.64

Stock options – Valuation Information

We estimate the value of stock options on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The risk-free rate of interest for the average contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The dividend yield is zero as we have not paid nor do we anticipate paying any dividends. For service-based awards, we used the “simplified method” described in Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 14, Share-Based Payment, where the expected term of awards granted is based on the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term, as we do not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. For performance-based awards, we determine the expected term based on the anticipated achievement and exercise pattern of the underlying options. Our expected volatility is based on a weighted average of the historical volatility of similar companies’ stock and the historical volatility of our stock since our IPO. The weighted-average estimated values of employee stock option grants and rights granted under the Plans as well as the weighted-average assumptions that were used in calculating such values during the last three years were based on estimates at the date of grant as follows:

	Risk free interest rate			Expected life		Expected dividend yield			Expected volatility			Fair value at grant date
2013		1.24	%		6 years		0	%		62	%	$	9.31
2012		1.05	%		6 years		0	%		61	%	$	10.67
2011		1.47	%		6 years		0	%		61	%	$	11.15

Stock options outstanding that have vested and are expected to vest as of December 31, 2013, were as follows:

	Number of shares		Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value(1)
Vested		1,450,992	$	10.75		6.5	$	21,242
Expected to vest		1,010,168	$	17.67		8.3		7,805
Total		2,461,160	$	13.59		7.2	$	29,047

⁽¹⁾  The Aggregate Intrinsic Value amounts represent the difference between the exercise price and $25.38, the fair value of our stock on December 31, 2013, for in-the-money options.

Stock Option Activity

The following table sets forth stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2013:

	Options Outstanding					Exercisable Options
	Number of shares			Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Number of shares		Weighted-Average Exercise Price

Outstanding at December 31, 2013		2,461,160		$	13.59		1,450,992	$	10.75

As of December 31, 2011, the weighted-average remaining contractual lives of options outstanding and options exercisable were 8.5 years and 7.4 years, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, the weighted-average remaining contractual lives of options outstanding and options exercisable were 7.8 years and 6.9 years, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the weighted-average remaining contractual lives of options outstanding and options exercisable were 7.2 years and 6.5 years, respectively

The total intrinsic value of options exercised in 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $1,860, $2,210 and $2,100, respectively. The total fair value of options vested was approximately $5,036, $3,388 and $2,476 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, there was $6,903 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

We sponsor a 401(k) defined-contribution plan (the “401(k) Plan”) covering substantially all eligible employees. Employee contributions to the 401(k) Plan are voluntary. We contribute an amount equal to 50% of a covered employee’s eligible contribution up to 6% of a participant’s compensation. Employer contributions vest over a period of three years. Participants’ contributions are limited to their annual tax deferred contribution limit as allowed by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company’s total matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan were $338, $340 and $310 for years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We may contribute additional amounts to the 401(k) Plan at our discretion. Discretionary employer contributions vest over the same three-year period. We made no discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan during the three-year period ended December 31, 2013.

Unrealized losses from fixed-income securities are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates. Because we do not intend to sell these investments, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell our investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, we do not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013 or 2012.

Income Taxes

Note 21. Income Taxes:

Components of income (loss) before income taxes are as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2013			2012			2011
Domestic	$	36,671		$	(16,817	)	$	(24,066	)

Income (loss) before income taxes	$	30,489		$	(16,817	)	$	(26,422	)

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and other tax credit carryforwards. These items are measured using the enacted tax rates applicable to the period when the differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred income tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

We have generated tax losses since incorporation and do not believe that it is more likely than not that the losses and other deferred tax assets will be utilized. As such, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. A summary of our net operating loss carryforwards, including the timing of expiry, is as follows:

Year of Expiry	Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
2030		16,967
2031		13,256
2032		8,674
Total	$	38,897

Additional carryforwards of $27,678, principally related to our China subsidiary, will expire between 2014 and 2018. Net operating losses and carryforwards are available for use against our consolidated federal taxable income.

The following is a reconciliation of our income tax provision (benefit) computed at the U.S. federal statutory rate to the income tax provision (benefit) reported in the consolidated statements of operations:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2013			2012			2011
Provision (benefit) at statutory rate	$	10,366		$	(5,718	)	$	(8,983	)

Valuation allowance		(9,998	)		4,561			7,799
Permanent book / tax differences		(263	)		1,194			619
Provision for income taxes	$	895		$	—		$	—

Of the total 2013 provision for income taxes, $707 related to the fourth quarter correction of AMT expense that was not recorded during the first three quarters of 2013.

The tax effects of temporary differences giving rise to deferred income tax assets and liabilities were:

	December 31,
	2013			2012
Deferred tax assets:
Product development and start-up costs	$	12,039		$	10,142

Net deferred tax asset		42,109			46,657
Valuation allowance		(42,109	)		(46,657	)
Net deferred tax assets (liabilities)	$	—		$	—

Our loss and credit carryforwards include $940 of windfall tax benefits that would reverse to accumulated paid-in-capital upon realization.

We classify uncertain tax positions as noncurrent income tax liabilities unless expected to be paid within one year. Classification of net deferred tax assets (liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets is as follows:

	December 31,
	2013			2012
Current assets	$	6		$	6
Noncurrent liabilities		(6	)		(6	)

Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2013

Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity

Note 14. Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

We are authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock as of both December 31, 2013 and 2013. We have reserved 5,892,670 shares at December 31, 2013 and 2012, for the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of outstanding stock options.

On September 16, 2013, we completed a registered equity offering, issuing 3,542,470 new shares of our common stock at $21.25 per share in exchange for total consideration of $75,277. We received proceeds from the offering, net of the underwriting discount and expenses, of $70,580.

Preferred Stock

Prior to the initial public offering, Sagent Holding was authorized to issue 113,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock (“Series A preferred”), 7,000,000 shares of Series B preferred stock (“Series B preferred”) and 30,136,052 shares of Series B-1 preferred stock (“Series B-1 preferred” and, with Series A preferred and Series B preferred, collectively, “preferred stock”).

The total shares of Series A preferred stock that were issued at December 31, 2010 was 113,000,000, all at $1.00 per share. In March 2010, Sagent Holding issued 7,000,000 Series B preferred shares for $1.40 per share. In April and August 2010, Sagent Holding issued a total of 25,714,284 Series B-1 preferred shares for $1.40 per share.

In connection with our IPO and concurrent with our Reincorporation in Delaware, the holders of Sagent Holding preferred stock exchanged each of their outstanding shares of preferred stock for 0.12759 shares of our common stock.

Following the initial public offering, we were authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. No preferred stock was issued or outstanding at December 31, 2013.

Voting Rights

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record upon such matters and in such manner as may be provided by law. Prior to our IPO, each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which such shares could be converted as of the record date. Each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to vote on all matters on which common stockholders shall be entitled to vote. Each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to receive notice of all stockholders’ meetings within the same time frame and in the same manner as notice given to all stockholders entitled to vote.

Dividends

We accrue dividends when, and if, declared by our Board of Directors (the “Board”). We have never declared a dividend on any class of stock.

Liquidation

In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or wind up, each holder of Series A and B preferred stock was entitled to a preferential payment in the amount of the redemption value thereof. The redemption value was equal to the liquidation value of the Series A and B preferred stock; $1.00 and $1.40, respectively, plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends. The holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and liquidation preferences of any outstanding shares of preferred stock. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights or rights to convert their common stock into any other securities.

Conversion

The shares of Series A and B preferred stock were each convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock, at any time, at the option of the holder.

Redemption

According to Sagent Holding’s Sixth Amended and Restated Articles of Association, Sagent Holdings preferred stock was capable of being redeemed by us at such price and on all such other terms as the Board of Directors may determine. This redemption feature was deemed not to be in our control with respect to Sagent Holdings preferred stock, and, therefore, Sagent Holdings preferred stock was reported as temporary equity in the consolidated balance sheets.

Preferred Stock Warrants

In connection with the issuance of our Series B-1 preferred stock, Sagent Holding issued 2,380,952 Series B-1 preferred stock warrants at $2.10 and 2,040,816 Series B-1 stock warrants at $2.45, all of which were immediately exercisable and expired at the earlier of (i) four years from issuance, (ii) the acquisition of Sagent by another entity, subject to certain conditions or (iii) immediately prior to the closing of our first firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement.

Each warrant entitled its owner to purchase Series B-1 shares or shares of the class and series of Preferred Shares issued by Sagent Holding to investors in a subsequent financing, subject to the terms and conditions of the warrant agreement. The warrant holders were not entitled to vote, to receive dividends or to exercise any of the rights of common or preferred shareholders for any purpose until such warrants have been duly exercised.

The fair value of these warrants was recorded on the balance sheet at issuance and marked to market at each balance sheet date. The change in the fair value of the warrants was recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. Upon the expiry or exercise of the warrants immediately prior to the Company’s initial public offering, the then carrying value of the warrants were adjusted against equity. On April 26, 2011, the holder of our preferred stock warrants exercised all of the warrants concurrent with our IPO, acquiring 454,500 shares of our common stock having a fair value at the IPO of $7,272, for $5,001 of cash.
