Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This presentation includes information about certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), including non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share. The Company provides these non-GAAP financial measures of the Company’s performance to investors because management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with the Company’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, are useful in identifying underlying trends in ongoing operations. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

This decrease was driven by Janssen’s partial termination of the license agreement related to sales of the long-acting INVEGA products in the U.S., effective Feb. 2, 2022. In April 2022, Alkermes commenced binding arbitration proceedings related to, among other things, Janssen’s partial termination of the license agreement and Janssen’s royalty and other obligations under the agreement. † In Q3'22, the Company recorded a one-time reversal of royalty revenue of approximately $21.5 million due to the outcome of recent arbitration proceedings related to agreements pertaining to AMPYRA, which includes a $16.5 million arbitration award and other royalty revenue that was previously recognized.
