6 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (in thousands, except per share data) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION K-V Pharmaceutical Company and its subsidiaries ("KV" or the "Company") are primarily engaged in the development, acquisition, manufacture, marketing and sale of technologically distinguished branded and generic/non-branded prescription pharmaceutical products. The Company was incorporated in 1971 and has become a leader in the development of advanced drug delivery and formulation technologies that are designed to enhance therapeutic benefits of existing drug forms. Through internal product development and synergistic acquisitions of products, KV has grown into a fully integrated specialty pharmaceutical company. The Company also develops, manufactures and markets technologically advanced, value-added raw material products for the pharmaceutical, nutritional, food and personal care industries. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations and cash flows for the three- and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations and cash flows that may be expected for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. The interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007. The balance sheet information as of March 31, 2007 has been derived from the Company's audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. 2. ACQUISITION In May 2007, the Company acquired the U.S. marketing rights to Evamist(TM), a new estrogen replacement therapy product delivered with a patented metered-dose transdermal spray system, from VIVUS, Inc. Under terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company paid $10,000 in cash at closing and agreed to make an additional cash payment of $141,500 upon final approval of the product by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). The agreement also provides for two future payments upon achievement of certain net sales milestones. If Evamist(TM) achieves $100,000 of net sales in a fiscal year, a one-time payment of $10,000 will be made, and if net sales levels reach $200,000 in a fiscal year, a one-time payment of up to $20,000 will be made. Because the product had not obtained FDA approval when the initial payment was made at closing, the Company recorded $10,000 of in-process research and development expense during the nine months ended December 31, 2007. In July 2007, FDA approval for Evamist(TM) was received and a payment of $141,500 was made to VIVUS, Inc. The preliminary purchase price allocation, which is subject to change based on the final fair value assessment, resulted in estimated identifiable intangible assets of $52,446 to product rights; $15,166 to trademark rights; $66,417 to rights under a sublicense agreement; and, $7,471 to a covenant not to compete. Upon FDA approval in July 2007, the Company began amortizing the product rights, trademark rights and rights under the sublicense agreement over 15 years and the covenant not to compete over nine years. 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE The Company has two classes of common stock: Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock that is convertible into Class A Common Stock. With respect to dividend rights, holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive cash dividends per share equal to 120% of the dividends per share paid on the Class B Common Stock. For purposes of calculating basic earnings per share, undistributed earnings are allocated to each class of common stock based on the contractual participation rights of each class of security. The Company also presents diluted earnings per share for Class B Common Stock for all periods using the two-class method which does not assume the conversion of Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock. The 7 Company presents diluted earnings per share for Class A Common Stock using the if-converted method which assumes the conversion of Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, if dilutive. Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period except that it does not include unvested common shares subject to repurchase. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, unvested common shares subject to repurchase, convertible preferred stock and the Convertible Subordinated Notes. The dilutive effects of outstanding stock options and unvested common shares subject to repurchase are reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. Convertible preferred stock and the Convertible Subordinated Notes are reflected on an if-converted basis. The computation of diluted earnings per share for Class A Common Stock assumes the conversion of the Class B Common Stock, while the diluted earnings per share for Class B Common Stock does not assume the conversion of those shares. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006:

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Effective April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense, based on estimated fair values, for all share-based compensation awards made to employees and directors over the vesting period of the awards. The Company adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective method and, as a result, did not retroactively adjust results from prior periods. Under the modified prospective method, stock-based compensation was recognized (1) for the unvested portion of previously issued awards that were outstanding at the initial date of adoption based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and (2) for any awards granted on or subsequent to the effective date of SFAS 123R based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of this statement. On August 30, 2002, the Company's shareholders approved KV's 2001 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "2001 Plan"), which allows for the issuance of up to 4,500 shares of common stock. Under the Company's stock option plan, options to acquire shares of common stock have been made available for grant to certain employees. Each option granted has an exercise price of not less than 100% of the market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The contractual life of each option is generally ten years and the options vest at the rate of 10% per year from the date of grant. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (the "Option Model"). The Option Model requires the use of subjective and complex assumptions, including the option's expected term and the estimated future price volatility of the underlying stock, which determine the fair value of the share-based awards. The Company's estimate of expected term was determined based on the average period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding considering current vesting schedules and the historical exercise patterns of existing option plans and the two-year forfeiture period. The expected volatility assumption used in the Option Model is based on historical volatility over a period commensurate with the expected term of the related options. The risk-free interest rate used in the Option Model is based on the yield of U.S. Treasuries with a maturity closest to the expected term of the Company's stock options. 10 The Company's stock option agreements include a post-exercise service condition which provides that exercised options are to be held by the Company for a two-year period during which time the shares cannot be sold by the employee. If the employee terminates employment voluntarily or involuntarily (other than by retirement, death or disability) during the two-year period the stock option agreements provide the Company with the option of repurchasing the shares at the lower of the exercise price or the fair market value of the stock on the date of termination. This repurchase option is considered a forfeiture provision and the two-year period is included in determining the requisite service period over which stock-based compensation expense is recognized. The requisite service period initially is equal to the expected term (as discussed above) and is revised when an option exercise occurs. If stock options expire unexercised or an employee terminates employment after options become exercisable, no compensation expense associated with the exercisable, but unexercised options, is reversed. In those instances where an employee terminates employment before options become exercisable or the Company repurchases the shares during the two-year forfeiture period, compensation expense for these options is reversed as a forfeiture. When an employee exercises stock options, the exercise proceeds received by the Company are recorded as a deposit and classified as a current liability for the two-year forfeiture period. The shares issuable upon exercise of these options are accounted for as issued when the two-year forfeiture period lapses. Until the two-year forfeiture requirement is met, the underlying shares are not considered outstanding and not included in calculating basic earnings per share. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R, share-based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of share-based awards that are expected to vest with employees. Accordingly, the recognition of share-based compensation expense beginning April 1, 2006 has been reduced for estimated future forfeitures. SFAS 123R requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant with adjustments recorded in subsequent period compensation expense if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Prior to implementing SFAS 123R, the Company accounted for forfeitures as they occurred for the disclosure of pro forma information presented in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for prior periods. Upon adoption of SFAS 123R on April 1, 2006, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle to reflect the effect of estimated forfeitures related to outstanding awards that were not expected to vest as of the adoption date. The cumulative adjustment increased net income for the nine months ended December 31, 2006 by $1,976, net of tax, and increased diluted earnings per share for Class A and Class B shares by $0.03 and $0.03, respectively. The Company recognized, in accordance with SFAS 123R, stock-based compensation of $1,332 and $4,089, respectively, and related tax benefits of $302 and $1,043, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 and stock-based compensation of $1,029 and $2,948, respectively, and related tax benefits of $289 and $859, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006. There was no stock-based employee compensation cost capitalized as of December 31, 2007. Cash received from stock option deposits was $195 and $1,247 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $868 and $3,667 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The actual tax benefit realized from tax deductions associated with stock option exercises (at expiration of two-year forfeiture period) was $526 and $339 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $1,055 and $762 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The following weighted average assumptions were used for stock options granted during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006:

As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $41,611 of total unrecognized compensation expense, related to stock option grants, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average period of 4.9 years. 5. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue is generally realized or realizable and earned when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and the customer's payment ability has been reasonably assured. Accordingly, the Company records revenue from product sales when title and risk of ownership have been transferred to the customer. The Company also enters into long-term agreements under which it assigns marketing rights for the products it has developed to pharmaceutical marketers. Royalties under these arrangements are earned based on the sale of products. Concurrently with the recognition of revenue, the Company records estimated sales provisions for product returns, sales rebates, payment discounts, chargebacks, and other sales allowances. Sales provisions are established based upon consideration of a variety of factors, including but not limited to, historical relationship to revenues, historical payment and return experience, estimated and actual customer inventory levels, customer rebate arrangements, and current contract sales terms with wholesale and indirect customers. Actual product returns, chargebacks and other sales allowances incurred are, however, dependent upon future events and may be different than the Company's estimates. The Company continually monitors the factors that influence sales allowance estimates and makes adjustments to these provisions when management believes that actual product returns, chargebacks and other sales allowances may differ from established allowances. Accruals for sales provisions are presented in the consolidated financial statements as reductions to net revenues and accounts receivable. Sales provisions totaled $57,201 and $42,617 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $164,629 and $114,811 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The reserve balances related to the sales provisions totaled $47,369 and $31,281 at December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2007, respectively, and are included in "Receivables, less allowance for doubtful accounts" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. 12 6. INVENTORIES Inventories consist of the following:

Management establishes reserves for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on an evaluation of inventory levels, forecasted demand, and market conditions. 7. INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL Intangible assets and goodwill consist of the following:
DECEMBER 31, 2007 MARCH 31, 2007 ------------------------------ ----------------------------- GROSS GROSS CARRYING ACCUMULATED CARRYING ACCUMULATED AMOUNT AMORTIZATION AMOUNT AMORTIZATION ------ ------------ ------ ------------ Product rights - Micro-K(R).................. $ 36,140 $ (15,867) $ 36,140 $ (14,513) Product rights - PreCare(R).................. 8,433 (3,549) 8,433 (3,233) Product rights - Evamist(TM)................. 52,446 (1,504) -- -- Trademarks acquired: Niferex(R).............................. 14,834 (3,523) 14,834 (2,967) Chromagen(R)/StrongStart(R)............. 27,642 (6,565) 27,642 (5,528) Evamist(TM)............................. 15,166 (435) -- -- License agreements - Evamist(TM)............. 66,417 (1,904) -- -- License agreements - other................... 4,400 (615) 4,400 (480) Covenant not to compete - Evamist(TM)........ 7,471 (357) -- -- Covenant not to compete - other ............. 375 (100) 375 (72) Trademarks and patents....................... 5,368 (1,011) 4,196 (774) ------------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Total intangible assets.................... 238,692 (35,430) 96,020 (27,567) Goodwill..................................... 557 -- 557 -- ------------- ---------- ----------- ---------- $ 239,249 $ (35,430) $ 96,577 $ (27,567) ============= ========== =========== ==========
As of December 31, 2007, the Company's intangible assets have a weighted average useful life of approximately 16 years. Amortization expense for intangible assets was $3,668 and $1,204 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $7,868 and $3,602 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Assuming no additions, disposals or adjustments are made to the carrying values and/or useful lives of the intangible assets, annual amortization expense on product rights, trademarks acquired and other intangible assets is estimated to be approximately $3,680 for the remainder of fiscal 2008 and approximately $14,700 in each of the four succeeding fiscal years. 8. REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT The Company has a credit agreement with ten banks that provides for a revolving line of credit for borrowing up to $320,000. This credit facility also includes a provision for increasing the revolving commitment, at the lenders' sole discretion, by up to an additional $50,000. The credit agreement is unsecured unless the Company, under certain specified circumstances, utilizes the facility to redeem part or all of its outstanding Convertible Subordinated Notes. Interest is charged under the credit facility at the lower of the prime rate or LIBOR plus 62.5 13 to 150 basis points depending on the ratio of senior debt to EBITDA. The credit facility has a five-year term expiring in June 2011. The credit agreement contains financial covenants that impose limits on dividend payments, require minimum equity, a maximum senior leverage ratio and minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. As of September 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants. In addition, the agreement requires that the Company submit quarterly financial statements within 45 days of the close of each fiscal quarter. The Company has obtained the consent of the lenders to extend the period for submission of the quarterly financial statements for this quarter to June 30, 2008. At December 31, 2007, the Company had $30,000 of borrowings outstanding under the credit facility (see Note 9). 9. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt consists of the following:
DECEMBER 31, 2007 MARCH 31, 2007 ----------------- -------------- Building mortgages.......................... $ 39,940 $ 41,348 Line of credit.............................. 30,000 -- Convertible notes........................... 200,000 200,000 ----------- ---------- 269,940 241,348 Less current portion........................ (201,984) (1,897) ----------- ---------- $ 67,956 $ 239,451 =========== ==========
In March 2006, the Company entered into a $43,000 mortgage loan agreement with one of its primary lenders, in part, to refinance $9,859 of existing mortgages. The $32,764 of net proceeds the Company received from the loan was used for working capital and general corporate purposes. This mortgage loan, which is secured by three of the Company's buildings, bears interest at a rate of 5.91% and matures on April 1, 2021. On May 16, 2003, the Company issued $200,000 principal amount of Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") that are convertible, under certain circumstances, into shares of Class A Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $23.01 per share. The Notes, which are due May 16, 2033, bear interest that is payable on May 16 and November 16 of each year at a rate of 2.50% per annum. The Company also is obligated to pay contingent interest at a rate equal to 0.5% per annum during any six-month period from May 16 to November 15 and from November 16 to May 15, with the initial six-month period commencing May 16, 2006, if the average trading price of the Notes per $1,000 principal amount for the five trading day period ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the first day of the applicable six-month period equals $1,200 or more. In November 2007, the average trading price of the Notes reached the threshold for the five-day trading period that results in the payment of contingent interest and beginning November 16, 2007, the Notes began to bear interest at a rate of 3.00% per annum. The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time on or after May 21, 2006, at a redemption price, payable in cash, of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest, if any. Holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes on May 16, 2008, 2013, 2018, 2023 and 2028 or upon a change in control, as defined in the indenture governing the Notes, at a purchase price, payable in cash, of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest, if any. The Company has classified the Notes as a current liability as of December 31, 2007, due to the right the holders have to require the Company to repurchase the Notes on May 16, 2008. Since the holders did not elect to cause the Company to repurchase any of the Notes, the Notes will be reclassified as long-term beginning with the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2008. The Notes are subordinate to all of the Company's existing and future senior obligations. 14 The Notes are convertible, at the holders' option, into shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock prior to the maturity date under the following circumstances: o during any quarter commencing after June 30, 2003, if the closing sale price of the Company's Class A Common Stock over a specified number of trading days during the previous quarter is more than 120% of the conversion price of the Notes on the last trading day of the previous quarter. The Notes are initially convertible at a conversion price of $23.01 per share, which is equal to a conversion rate of approximately 43.4594 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes; o if the Company has called the Notes for redemption; o during the five trading day period immediately following any nine consecutive trading day period in which the trading price of the Notes per $1,000 principal amount for each day of such period was less than 95% of the product of the closing sale price of our Class A Common Stock on that day multiplied by the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $1,000 principal amount of the Notes; or o upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. The Company has reserved 8,692 shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance in the event the Notes are converted. Certain conversion features of the Notes and the contingent interest feature meet the criteria of and qualify as embedded derivatives. Although these features represent embedded derivative financial instruments, based on the de minimis value of them at the time of issuance and at December 31, 2007, no value has been assigned to these embedded derivatives. The Notes, which are unsecured, do not contain any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of additional indebtedness or the repurchase of the Company's securities, and do not contain any financial covenants. 10. TAXABLE INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS In December 2005, the Company entered into a financing arrangement with St. Louis County, Missouri related to expansion of its operations in St. Louis County. Up to $135,500 of industrial revenue bonds may be issued to the Company by St. Louis County relative to capital improvements made through December 31, 2009. This agreement provides that 50% of the real and personal property taxes on up to $135,500 of capital improvements will be abated for a period of ten years subsequent to the property being placed in service. Industrial revenue bonds totaling $109,397 were outstanding at December 31, 2007. The industrial revenue bonds are issued by St. Louis County to the Company upon its payment of qualifying costs of capital improvements, which are then leased by the Company for a period ending December 1, 2019, unless earlier terminated. The Company has the option at any time to discontinue the arrangement and regain full title to the abated property. The industrial revenue bonds bear interest at 4.25% per annum and are payable as to principal and interest concurrently with payments due under the terms of the lease. The Company has classified the leased assets as property and equipment and has established a capital lease obligation equal to the outstanding principal balance of the industrial revenue bonds. Lease payments may be made by tendering an equivalent portion of the industrial revenue bonds. As the capital lease payments to St. Louis County may be satisfied by tendering industrial revenue bonds (which is the Company's intention), the capital lease obligation, industrial revenue bonds and related interest expense and interest income, respectively, have been offset for presentation purposes in the consolidated financial statements. 11. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity during a period except those that resulted from investments by or distributions to the Company's shareholders. Other comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that, under generally accepted accounting principles, are included in comprehensive income, but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to shareholders' equity. For the Company, comprehensive income is comprised of net income and the net changes in unrealized gains and losses on available for sale marketable securities, net of applicable income taxes. Total comprehensive income totaled $32,666 and $18,632 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $79,052 and $40,856 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. 15 12. SEGMENT REPORTING The reportable operating segments of the Company are branded products, specialty generic/non-branded and specialty materials. The branded products segment includes patent-protected products and certain trademarked off-patent products that the Company sells and markets as brand pharmaceutical products. The specialty generics segment includes off-patent pharmaceutical products that are therapeutically equivalent to proprietary products. The Company sells its branded and generic/non-branded products primarily to pharmaceutical wholesalers, drug distributors and chain drug stores. The specialty materials segment is distinguished as a single segment because of differences in products, marketing and regulatory approval when compared to the other segments. Accounting policies of the segments are the same as the Company's consolidated accounting policies. Segment profits are measured based on income before taxes and are determined based on each segment's direct revenues and expenses. The majority of research and development expense, corporate general and administrative expenses, amortization and interest expense, as well as interest and other income, are not allocated to segments, but included in the "all other" classification. Identifiable assets for the three reportable operating segments primarily include receivables, inventory, and property and equipment. For the "all other" classification, identifiable assets consist of cash and cash equivalents, corporate property and equipment, intangible and other assets and all income tax related assets. The following tables present information for the Company's reportable operating segments for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

CONTINGENCIES - LITIGATION The Company and its subsidiaries Drugtech Corporation and Ther-Rx Corporation were named as defendants in a declaratory judgment case filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware by Lannett Company, Inc. ("Lannett") on June 6, 2008 and styled Lannett Company Inc. v. KV Pharmaceuticals et. al. Lannett has subsequently amended its complaint. The action seeks a declaratory judgment of patent invalidity, patent non-infringement, and patent unenforceability for inequitable conduct with respect to five patents owned by, and two patents licensed to, the Company or its subsidiaries and pertaining to the PrimaCare ONE(R) product marketed by Ther-Rx Corporation; unfair competition; deceptive trade practices; and antitrust violations. No specific amount of damages was stated in the complaint or amended complaint. The Company has not yet been served with either the complaint or the amended complaint. However, on June 17, 2008, the Company filed a counterclaim against Lannett in that action asserting patent infringement; federal and common law trademark infringement, false advertising, and unfair competition; federal false designation of origin, false description and false representation; and common law misappropriation. The Company has requested a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction against Lannett's continued sale of its product and continued infringement of the Company's trademarks and patents, unfair competition or misappropriation, and to require Lannett to recall all of its shipped product. A briefing schedule has been set by the court on the Company's motion and a hearing has been scheduled before the court on the Company's motion on June 25, 2008. No discovery has yet commenced nor a trial date been set. The Company is named as a defendant in a patent infringement case filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware by UCB, Inc. and Celltech Manufacturing CA, Inc. (collectively, "UCB") on April 21, 2008 and styled UCB, Inc. et al. v. KV Pharmaceutical Company. After the Company filed an ANDA with the FDA seeking permission to market a generic version of the 40 mg, 50 mg and 60 mg strengths of Metadate CD(R) methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release capsules, UCB filed this lawsuit under a patent owned by Celltech. In a Paragraph IV certification accompanying the ANDA, KV contended that its proposed 40 mg generic formulation would not infringe Celltech's patent. Because the patent was not listed in the Orange Book for the 50 mg and 60 mg dosages, a Paragraph I certification was filed with respect to them. Pursuant to the Hatch-Waxman Act, the filing of the suit against the Company instituted an automatic stay of FDA approval of the Company's ANDA with respect to the 40 mg strength of this product until the earlier of a judgment in the Company's favor, or 30 months from the date of suit. Inasmuch as the Celltech patent was not listed in the Orange Book with respect to the 50 mg and 60 mg strengths, it is the Company's belief that the automatic stay does not apply to the Company's 50 mg and 60 mg strengths of this product. UCB may, however, seek to keep these strengths tied up in the litigation. The Company has filed an answer, asserted certain affirmative defenses (including that Plaintiffs are estopped to assert infringement of the 50 mg and 60 mg dosages due to their not listing the Celltech patent in the Orange Book for these dosages), and has asserted a counterclaim in which it seeks a declaratory judgment of invalidity and non-infringement of the claims in the Celltech patent, and an award of attorneys fees and costs. The case has recently commenced and no trial date has yet been set. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests; however, it cannot give any assurance that it will prevail. The Company is named as a defendant in a patent infringement case filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey by Janssen, L.P., Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V. and Ortho-McNeil Neurologics, Inc. (collectively, "Janssen") on December 14, 2007 and styled Janssen, L.P. et al. v. KV Pharmaceutical Company. After the Company filed an ANDA with the FDA seeking permission to market a generic version of the 8 mg and 16 mg strengths of Razadyne(R) ER (formerly Reminyl(R)) galantamine hydrobromide extended-release capsules, Janssen filed this lawsuit for patent infringement under a patent owned by Janssen. In the Company's Paragraph IV certification, KV contended that its proposed generic versions do not infringe Janssen's patent. Pursuant to the Hatch-Waxman Act, the filing date of the suit against the Company instituted an automatic stay of FDA approval of the Company's ANDA until the earlier of a judgment, or 30 months from the date of the suit. The Company has filed an answer and counterclaim for declaratory judgment of non-infringement and patent invalidity. Discovery is on-going, but no trial date has yet been set. Following the Company's filing of an ANDA pertaining to a generic version of the 24 mg strength of Razadyne(R) ER (formerly Reminyl(R)) galantamine hydrobromide extended-release capsules and the Company's giving of notice of this filing to Janssen, Janssen has filed in June 2008 a second complaint in the same federal court, naming the Company as a defendant in a related patent infringement case 17 under the same Janssen patent with respect to such 24 mg generic version. The time to answer the new complaint has not yet run. The Company anticipates that both cases will be coordinated before the court. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests; however, it cannot give any assurance that it will prevail. The Company is named as a defendant in a patent infringement case filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey by Celgene Corporation ("Celgene") and Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation and Novartis Pharma AG (collectively, "Novartis") on October 4, 2007 and styled Celgene Corporation et al. v. KV Pharmaceutical Company. After the Company filed an ANDA with the FDA seeking permission to market a generic version of the 10 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, and 40 mg strengths of Ritalin LA(R) methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release capsules, Celgene and Novartis filed this lawsuit for patent infringement under the provisions of the Hatch-Waxman Act with respect to two patents owned by Celgene and licensed to Novartis. In the Company's Paragraph IV certification, KV contended that its proposed generic versions do not infringe Celgene's patents. Pursuant to the Hatch-Waxman Act, the filing date of the suit against the Company instituted an automatic stay of FDA approval of the Company's ANDA until the earlier of a judgment, or 30 months from the date of the suit. The Company has been served with this complaint and has filed its answer and a counterclaim in the case, seeking a declaratory judgment of non-infringement, patent invalidity, and inequitable conduct in obtaining the patents. The case is just commencing and no trial date has yet been set. Celgene has moved to disqualify the Company's counsel in the case, asserting a conflict of interest despite its signing of an advance waiver with such counsel, and this motion is pending before the court. Should this motion be granted, the Company will need to retain new counsel. The Company does not believe that this would materially delay the progress of the lawsuit. The Company has filed a motion for sanctions against plaintiffs pursuant to Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for bringing an action without proper basis and is seeking an order dismissing the patent infringement complaint filed by plaintiffs, and awarding the Company its costs and attorneys' fees. Celgene has asked the court to dismiss the Company's Rule 11 motion, and the matter is pending before the court. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests; however, it cannot give any assurance that it will prevail. The Company is named as a defendant in a patent infringement case brought by Purdue Pharma L.P., The P.F. Laboratories, Inc., and Purdue Pharmaceuticals L.P. ("Purdue") on January 17, 2007 against it and an unrelated third party and styled Purdue Pharma L.P. et al. v. KV Pharmaceutical Company et al. filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. After the Company filed an ANDA with the FDA seeking permission to market a generic version of the 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg, and 80 mg strengths of OxyContin(R) in extended-release tablet form, Purdue filed a lawsuit against KV for patent infringement under the provisions of the Hatch-Waxman Act with respect to three Purdue patents. In the Company's Paragraph IV certification, KV contended that Purdue's patents are invalid, unenforceable, or will not be infringed by KV's proposed generic versions. On February 12, 2007, a second patent infringement lawsuit was filed in the same court against the Company by Purdue, asserting patent infringement under the same three patents with respect to the Company's filing of an amendment to its ANDA with FDA to sell a generic equivalent of Purdue's OxyContin(R), 30 mg and 60 mg strengths, products. On June 6, 2007, a third patent infringement lawsuit was filed against the Company by Purdue in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, asserting patent infringement under the same three patents with respect to the Company's filing of an amendment to its ANDA with FDA to sell a generic equivalent of Purdue's OxyContin(R), 15 mg strength, product. The two lawsuits filed in federal court in Delaware have been transferred to the federal court in New York for multi-district litigation purposes together with an additional lawsuit by Purdue against another unrelated company, also in federal court in New York. Purdue currently has similar lawsuits pending against additional unrelated companies in federal court in New York. The Company filed answers and counterclaims against Purdue in all three lawsuits, asserting various defenses to Purdue's claims; seeking declaratory relief of the invalidity, unenforceability and non-infringement of the Purdue patents; and asserting counterclaims against Purdue for violations of federal antitrust law, including Sherman Act Section 1 and Section 2 for monopolization, attempt to monopolize, and conspiracy to monopolize with respect to the U.S. market for controlled-release oxycodone, and agreements in unreasonable restraint of competition, and for intentional interference with valid business expectancy. Purdue has filed replies to the Company's counterclaims. Pursuant to the Hatch-Waxman Act, the filing date of the suit against the Company instituted an automatic stay of FDA approval of the Company's ANDA until the earlier of a judgment, or 30 months from the date of the suit. The court initially stayed all proceedings pending determining whether Purdue committed inequitable conduct in its dealings with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office with respect to the issuance of its patents, which would 18 render such patents unenforceable, and the court's subsequent decision on the issue. On January 7, 2008, the court issued its decision finding that Purdue had not committed inequitable conduct with respect to the patents in suit. The Company, among others, has asked the court to lift the stay so that the remainder of the case may resume but the stay has not yet been lifted. Discovery in the suit has not yet commenced but is expected to commence shortly after the stay is lifted on the case. No trial date has yet been set. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests; however, it cannot give any assurance that it will prevail. The Company and ETHEX are named as defendants in a case brought by CIMA LABS, Inc. and Schwarz Pharma, Inc. and styled CIMA LABS, Inc. et. al. v. KV Pharmaceutical Company et. al. filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. CIMA alleged that the Company and ETHEX infringed on a CIMA patent in connection with the manufacture and sale of Hyoscyamine Sulfate Orally Dissolvable Tablets, 0.125 mg. The court has entered a stay pending the outcome of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's reexamination of a patent at issue in the suit. The Patent and Trademark Office has, to date, issued a final office action rejecting all existing and proposed new claims by CIMA with respect to this patent. CIMA has certain rights of appeal of this rejection of its claims and has exercised those rights. The product involved in this lawsuit is currently subject to a hold on the Company's inventory of certain unapproved products notified to the Company in March 2008 by representatives of the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and the FDA. In the event that such hold is lifted, ETHEX intends to resume marketing the product during the stay in the lawsuit with CIMA. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests when or if the stay is lifted; however, it cannot give any assurance it will prevail or that the stay will be lifted. The Company and ETHEX are named as defendants in a case brought by Axcan ScandiPharm Inc. and styled Axcan ScandiPharm Inc. v. ETHEX Corporation et. al., filed in U.S. District Court in Minnesota on June 1, 2007. In general, Axcan alleges that ETHEX's comparative promotion of its Pangestyme(TM) UL12 and Pangestyme(TM) UL18 products to Axcan's Ultrase(R) MT12 and Ultrase(R) MT18 products resulted in false advertising and misleading statements under various federal and state laws, and constituted unfair and deceptive trade practices. The Company filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings in its favor on several grounds. The motion has been granted in part and denied in part by the court on October 19, 2007, with the court applying the statute of limitations to cut off Axcan's claims concerning conduct prior to June 2001, determining that it was too early to determine whether laches or res judicata barred the suit, and rejecting the remaining bases for dismissal. Discovery has since commenced and a trial date has been set for January 2010. Plaintiffs have recently filed a motion to amend their complaint to seek declaratory judgments that Axcan does not have "unclean hands" nor violated any antitrust or unfair competition laws. This motion is pending before the court. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests; however, it cannot give any assurance that it will prevail. The Company has been advised that one of its former distributor customers is being sued in Florida state court in a case captioned Darrian Kelly v. K-Mart et. al. for personal injury allegedly caused by ingestion of K-Mart diet caplets that are alleged to have been manufactured by the Company and to contain phenylpropanolamine, or PPA. The distributor has tendered defense of the case to the Company and has asserted a right to indemnification for any financial judgment it must pay. The Company previously notified its product liability insurer of this claim in 1999 and again in 2004, and the Company has demanded that the insurer assume the Company's defense. The insurer has stated that it has retained counsel to secure additional factual information and will defer its coverage decision until that information is received. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests; however, it cannot give any assurance that it will not be impleaded into the action, or that, if it is impleaded, that it would prevail. KV's product liability coverage for PPA claims expired for claims made after June 15, 2002. Although the Company renewed its product liability coverage for coverage after June 15, 2002, that policy excludes future PPA claims in accordance with the standard industry exclusion. Consequently, as of June 15, 2002, the Company will provide for legal defense costs and indemnity payments involving PPA claims on a going forward basis as incurred. Moreover, the Company may not be able to obtain product liability insurance in the future for PPA claims with adequate coverage limits at commercially reasonable prices for subsequent periods. From time to time in the future, KV may be subject to further litigation resulting from products containing PPA that it formerly distributed. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests in the event of such future litigation; however, it cannot give any assurance it will prevail. 19 The Company was named as a defendant in a case filed in U.S. District Court in Missouri by AstraZeneca AB, Aktiebolaget Hassle and AstraZeneca LP (collectively, "AstraZeneca") and styled AstraZeneca AB et. al. v. KV Pharmaceutical Company. After the Company filed ANDAs with the FDA seeking permission to market a generic version of the 25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, and 200 mg strengths of Toprol-XL(R) in extended-release capsule form, AstraZeneca filed lawsuits against KV for patent infringement under the provisions of the Hatch-Waxman Act. In the Company's Paragraph IV certification, KV contended that its proposed generic versions do not infringe AstraZeneca's patents. Pursuant to the Hatch-Waxman Act, the filing date of the suit against the Company instituted an automatic stay of FDA approval of the Company's ANDA until the earlier of a judgment, or 30 months from the date of the suit. The Company filed motions for summary judgment with the District Court in Missouri alleging, among other things, that AstraZeneca's patent is invalid and unenforceable. These motions were granted and AstraZeneca appealed. On July 23, 2007, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the decision of the District Court below with respect to the invalidity of AstraZeneca's patent but reversed and remanded with respect to inequitable conduct by AstraZeneca. AstraZeneca filed for rehearing by the Federal Circuit, which was denied and the time has now run with respect to any petition for certiorari to the United States Supreme Court. As a result, the Company no longer faces the prospect of any liability to AstraZeneca in connection with this lawsuit. KV continued to proceed with its counterclaim against AstraZeneca for inequitable conduct in obtaining the patents that have been ruled invalid, in order to recover the Company's defense costs, including legal fees. In May 2008, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with AstraZeneca and settled its remaining counterclaims against AstraZeneca in exchange for a payment of $2,700. The Company and/or ETHEX have been named as defendants in certain multi-defendant cases alleging that the defendants reported improper or fraudulent pharmaceutical pricing information, i.e., Average Wholesale Price, or AWP, and/or Wholesale Acquisition Cost, or WAC, information, which caused the governmental plaintiffs to incur excessive costs for pharmaceutical products under the Medicaid program. Cases of this type have been filed against the Company and/or ETHEX and other pharmaceutical manufacturer defendants by the States of Massachusetts, Alabama, Mississippi, Utah and Iowa, New York City, and approximately 45 counties in New York State. The State of Mississippi effectively voluntarily dismissed the Company and ETHEX without prejudice on October 5, 2006 by virtue of the State's filing an Amended Complaint on such date that does not name either the Company or ETHEX as a defendant. In the remaining cases, only ETHEX is a named defendant. On August 13, 2007, ETHEX settled the Massachusetts lawsuit for $575 in cash and pharmaceutical products valued at $150, both of which are to be paid or delivered over the next two years, and received a general release; no admission of liability was made. The New York City case and all New York county cases (other than the Erie, Oswego and Schenectady County cases) have been transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings under the Average Wholesale Price Multidistrict Litigation (MDL No. 1456). The cases pertaining to the State of Alabama, Erie County, Oswego County, and Schenectady County were removed to federal court by a co-defendant in October 2006, but all of these cases have since been remanded to the state courts in which they originally were filed. A motion is pending in New York state court to coordinate the Oswego, Erie and Schenectady Counties cases. Each of these actions is in the early stages, with fact discovery commencing or ongoing in the Alabama case and the federal cases involving New York City and 42 New York counties. On October 24, 2007, ETHEX was served with a complaint filed in Utah state court by the State of Utah naming it and nine other pharmaceutical companies as defendants in a pricing suit. On November 19, 2007, the State of Utah filed an amended complaint. The Utah suit has been removed to federal court and a motion has been filed to transfer the case to the MDL litigation for pretrial coordination. The State is seeking to remand the case to state court, and the decision is pending before the court. The time for ETHEX to answer or respond to the Utah complaint has not yet run. On October 9, 2007, the State of Iowa filed a complaint in federal court in Iowa naming ETHEX and 77 other pharmaceutical companies as defendants in a pricing suit. ETHEX and the other defendants have filed a motion to dismiss the Iowa complaint. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests in the actions described above; however, it cannot give any assurance it will prevail. The Company believes that various other governmental entities have commenced investigations into the generic and branded pharmaceutical industry at large regarding pricing and price reporting practices. Although the Company believes its pricing and reporting practices have complied in all material respects with its legal obligations, it cannot give any assurance that it would prevail if legal actions are instituted by these governmental entities. The Company and ETHEX were named as co-defendants in a suit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida filed by the personal representative of the estate of Joyce Hoyle and her children in connection 20 with Ms. Hoyle's death in 2003, allegedly from oxycodone toxicity styled Thomas Hoyle v. Purdue Pharma et al. The suit alleged that between June 2001 and May 2003 Ms. Hoyle was prescribed and took three different opiate pain medications manufactured and sold by the defendants, including one product, oxycodone, that was manufactured by the Company and marketed by ETHEX, and that such medications were promoted without sufficient warnings about the side effect of addiction. The causes of action were strict liability for an inherently dangerous product, negligence, breach of express and implied warranty and breach of implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose. The discovery process had not yet begun, and the court had set the trial to commence in July 2007. The plaintiff and the Company agreed, however, to a tolling agreement, under which the plaintiff dismissed the case without prejudice in return for the Company's agreement to toll the statute of limitations in the event the plaintiff refiled its case in the future. The case was dismissed without prejudice. On January 18, 2008, the Company and ETHEX were served with a new complaint, substantially similar to the earlier law suit. KV and ETHEX have filed an answer to the new complaint, as well as a motion to dismiss the lawsuit based on expiration of the statute of limitations. This motion is pending before the court, with a hearing scheduled by the court on July 7, 2008. A trial date has been set for November 2008. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests; however, it cannot give any assurance that it will prevail. On September 15, 2006, a shareholder derivative suit, captioned Fuhrman v. Hermelin et al., was filed in state court in St. Louis, Missouri against the Company, as nominal defendant, and seven present or former officers and directors, alleging that defendants had breached their fiduciary duties and engaged in unjust enrichment in connection with the granting, dating, expensing and accounting treatment of past grants of stock options between 1995 and 2002 to six current or former directors or officers. Relief sought included damages, disgorgement of backdated stock options and their proceeds, attorneys' fees, and equitable relief. On February 26, 2007, the Fuhrman lawsuit was dismissed without prejudice by the plaintiff in state court, and a lawsuit, captioned Krasick v. Hermelin et al., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri by the same law firms as in the Fuhrman lawsuit, with a different plaintiff. The Krasick lawsuit was also a shareholder derivative suit filed against the Company, as nominal defendant, and 19 present or former officers and directors. The complaint asserted within its fiduciary duties claims allegations that the officers and/or directors of KV improperly (including through collusion and aiding and abetting) backdated stock option grants in violation of shareholder-approved plans, improperly recorded and accounted for the allegedly backdated options in violation of GAAP, improperly took tax deductions under the Internal Revenue Code, disseminated and filed false financials and false SEC filings in violation of federal securities laws and rules thereunder, and engaged in insider trading and misappropriation of information. Relief sought included damages, a demand for accounting and recovery of the benefits allegedly improperly received, rescission of the allegedly backdated stock options and disgorgement of their proceeds, and reasonable attorney's fees, in addition to equitable relief, including an injunction to require the Company to change certain of its corporate governance and internal control procedures. On May 11, 2007, the Company learned of the filing of another lawsuit, captioned Gradwell v. Hermelin et al., also in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. The complaint was brought by the same law firms that brought the Krasick litigation and was substantively the same as in the Krasick litigation, other than being brought on behalf of a different plaintiff and eliminating one individual defendant from the suit. On July 18, 2007, the Krasick and Gradwell suits were refiled as a consolidated action in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, styled In re K-V Pharmaceutical Company Derivative Litigation, which was substantively the same as the Krasick and Gradwell suits. The Company moved to terminate the litigation based on a determination by members of a Special Committee of the Board of Directors that continuation of the litigation was not in the best interest of KV and its shareholders. All individual officer and director defendants joined in that motion. Plaintiffs filed a motion for rule to show cause why the defendants' motion to terminate the lawsuit should not be stricken and dismissed. On February 15, 2008, the court stayed proceedings in the case until April 9, 2008, to permit mediation pursuant to the parties' stipulation. Mediation occurred on April 2, 2008. On May 23, 2008, all remaining parties to the litigation filed a proposed settlement with the court which, if approved by the court, would resolve all claims asserted in the Action. The proposed settlement provides for a payment of fees and expenses to plaintiffs' counsel not to exceed $1,650, which amount is expected to be covered by insurance. The proposed settlement received preliminary approval by the court on June 3, 2008. Notice of the terms of the settlement has been mailed to all shareholders of record as of May 23, 2008 and a final fairness hearing has been scheduled by the court to be conducted on August 26, 2008. In the course of the Special Committee's investigation, by letter dated December 18, 2006, the Company was notified by the SEC staff that it had commenced an investigation with respect to the Company's stock option plans, 21 grants, exercises, and accounting treatment. The Company has cooperated with the SEC staff in its investigation and, among other things, has provided them with copies of the Special Committee's report and all documents collected by the Special Committee in the course of its review. In December 2007, the SEC staff, pursuant to a formal order of investigation, issued subpoenas for additional documents and testimony by certain employees. The production of additional documents called for by the subpoena and the testimony of the employees was completed in May 2008. The Company has received a subpoena from the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services, seeking documents with respect to two of ETHEX's nitroglycerin products. Both are unapproved products, that is, they have not received FDA approval. (FDA approval is not necessarily required for all drugs to be sold in the marketplace, such as pre-1938 "grandfathered" products or certain drugs reviewed under the so-called DESI process. The Company believes that its two products come within these exceptions.) The subpoena states that it is in connection with an investigation into potential false claims under Title 42 of the U.S. Code, and appears to pertain to whether these products are eligible for reimbursement under federal health care programs, such as Medicaid and VA programs. Resolution of any of the matters discussed above could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or financial condition. From time to time, the Company is involved in various other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. While it is not feasible to predict the ultimate outcome of such other proceedings, the Company believes the ultimate outcome of such other proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition. There are uncertainties and risks associated with all litigation and there can be no assurance the Company will prevail in any particular litigation. 14. INCOME TAXES The Company adopted FASB Interpretation 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" ("FIN 48") effective April 1, 2007. FIN 48 prescribes accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax positions. This interpretation addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition of tax positions, financial statement classification, recognition of interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure and transition requirements. The Company's adoption of FIN 48 was not material to its consolidated financial position; however, certain reclassifications of various income tax-related balance sheet amounts were required. At April 1, 2007, upon adoption of FIN 48, the Company had $12,980 of gross unrecognized tax benefits, which if recognized would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. As of December 31, the consolidated balance sheet reflects a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $11,884, excluding liabilities for interest and penalties. Accrued interest and penalties included in the consolidated balance sheet were $2,082 as of December 31, 2007. The Company recognizes interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense in the consolidated statement of income. It is anticipated the Company will recognize approximately $1,300 of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months as a result of the expected expiration of the relevant statute of limitations. 22 The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and is subject to examinations by those authorities. The Company's federal statute of limitations has expired for fiscal years prior to 2005 and the relevant state statutes vary. The Company currently is being audited by the IRS for its March 31, 2006 and 2007 tax years. The IRS is also currently auditing the employment tax returns of the Company for calendar years 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. Various information requests with respect to the periods under audit have been received and responded to. We expect the IRS to issue additional information requests. The Company does not have any state examinations in progress at this time. An income tax benefit has resulted from the determination that certain non-qualified stock options for which stock-based compensation expense was recorded will create an income tax deduction. This tax benefit has resulted in an increase to the Company's deferred tax assets for stock options prior to the occurrence of a taxable event or the forfeiture of the related options. Upon the occurrence of a taxable event or forfeiture of the underlying options, the corresponding deferred tax asset is reversed and the excess or deficiency in the deferred tax asset is recorded to paid-in capital in the period in which the taxable event or forfeiture occurs. The Company determined that certain options previously classified as Incentive Stock Option ("ISO") grants were determined to have been granted with an exercise price below the fair market value of the Company's stock on the revised measurement dates. Under Internal Revenue Code Section 422, ISOs may not be granted with an exercise price less than the fair market value on the date of grant, and therefore these grants would not likely qualify for ISO tax treatment. The disqualification of ISO classification exposes the Company and the affected employees to payroll related withholding taxes once the underlying shares are released from the post exercise two-year forfeiture period and the substantial risk of forfeiture has lapsed, which creates a taxable event. The Company and the affected employees may also be subject to interest and penalties for failing to properly withhold taxes and report the taxable event on their respective tax returns. The Company is currently reviewing the potential disqualification of ISO grants and the related withholding tax implications with the IRS in an effort to reach agreement on the resulting tax liability. The Company recorded liabilities related to this matter of $8,806 as of December 31, 2007, in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Management regularly reevaluates the Company's tax positions taken on filed tax returns using information about recent court decisions and legislative activities. Many factors are considered in making these evaluations, including past history, recent interpretations of tax law, and the specific facts and circumstances of each matter. Because tax law and regulations are subject to interpretation and tax litigation is inherently uncertain, these evaluations can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. The recorded tax liabilities are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management. However, if our estimates are not representative of actual outcomes, recorded tax liabilities could be materially impacted. 15. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"), which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability, provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP and expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 157 at the beginning of fiscal 2009 and is evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its financial condition and results of operations. In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" ("SFAS 159"), which permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Companies are not allowed to adopt SFAS 159 on a retrospective basis unless they choose early adoption. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 159 at the beginning of fiscal 2009 and is evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on its financial condition and results of operations. 23 In March 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") in Issue No. 06-10, "Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements" ("Issue 06-10"). Issue 06-10 requires companies with collateral assignment split-dollar life insurance policies that provide a benefit to an employee that extends to postretirement periods to recognize a liability for future benefits based on the substantive agreement with the employee. Recognition should be in accordance with FASB Statement No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," or APB Opinion No. 12, "Omnibus Opinion - 1967," depending on whether a substantive plan is deemed to exist. Companies are permitted to recognize the effects of applying the consensus through either (1) a change in accounting principle through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings or to other components of equity or net assets as of the beginning of the year of adoption or (2) a change in accounting principle through retrospective application to all prior periods. Issue 06-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt Issue 06-10 at the beginning of fiscal 2009 and is evaluating the impact of the adoption of Issue 06-10 on its financial condition and results of operations. In June 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the EITF on Issue No. 07-3, "Accounting for Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use in Future Research and Development Activities" ("Issue 07-3"), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007 and is applied prospectively for new contracts entered into on or after the effective date. Issue 07-3 addresses nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services for use in future research and development activities. Issue 07-3 will require that these payments that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities be deferred and capitalized and recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or the related services are performed. If an entity does not expect the goods to be delivered or the services to be rendered, the capitalized advance payments should be expensed. The Company plans to adopt Issue 07-3 at the beginning of fiscal 2009 and is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this issue on its financial condition and results of operations. In September 2007, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 07-1 ("Issue 07-1"), "Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements." The scope of Issue 07-1 is limited to collaborative arrangements where no separate legal entity exists and in which the parties are active participants and are exposed to significant risks and rewards that depend on the success of the activity. The EITF concluded that revenue transactions with third parties and associated costs incurred should be reported in the appropriate line item in each company's financial statements pursuant to the guidance in Issue 99-19, "Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent." The EITF also concluded that the equity method of accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion 18, "The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock," should not be applied to arrangements that are not conducted through a separate legal entity. The EITF also concluded that the income statement classification of payments made between the parties in an arrangement should be based on a consideration of the following factors: the nature and terms of the arrangement; the nature of the entities' operations; and whether the partners' payments are within the scope of existing GAAP. To the extent such costs are not within the scope of other authoritative accounting literature, the income statement characterization for the payments should be based on an analogy to authoritative accounting literature or a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election. The provisions of Issue 07-1 are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and companies will be required to apply the provisions through retrospective application. The Company plans to adopt Issue 07-1 at the beginning of fiscal 2010 and is evaluating the impact of the adoption of Issue 07-1 on its financial condition and results of operations. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141(R)") which replaces SFAS 141 but retains the fundamental concept of purchase method of accounting in a business combination and improves reporting by creating greater consistency in the accounting and financial reporting of business combinations, resulting in more complete, comparable, and relevant information for investors and other users of financial statements. To achieve this goal, the new standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and any non-controlling interest at the acquisition date at their fair value as of that date. This statement requires measuring a non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value which will result in recognizing the goodwill attributable to the non-controlling interest in addition to that attributable to the acquirer. This statement also requires the recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date, measured at their acquisition fair values. SFAS 141(R) is effective for business combinations for which the 24 acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and early adoption is prohibited. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 141(R) at the beginning of fiscal 2010 and is evaluating the impact of SFAS 141(R) on its financial condition and results of operations. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements" ("SFAS 160") an amendment of ARB No. 51, which will affect only those entities that have an outstanding non-controlling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary by requiring all entities to report non-controlling (minority) interests in subsidiaries in the same way as equity in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, SFAS 160 eliminates the diversity that currently exists in accounting for transactions between an entity and non-controlling interests by requiring they be treated as equity transactions. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.The Company plans to adopt SFAS 160 at the beginning of fiscal 2010 and is evaluating the impact of SFAS 160 on its financial condition and results of operations. In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-a, "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)." Under the new rules for convertible debt instruments that may be settled entirely or partially in cash upon conversion, an entity should separately account for the liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer's economic interest cost. The effect of the proposed new rules for the debentures is that the equity component would be included in the paid-in-capital section of shareholders' equity on an entity's consolidated balance sheet and the value of the equity component would be treated as original issue discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component of convertible debt. The FSP will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with retrospective application required. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the proposed new rules and the impact on its financial condition and results of operations. 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In January 2008, the Company entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement with CYTYC Prenatal Products and Hologic, Inc. ("CYTYC") to acquire the U.S. and worldwide rights to Gestiva(TM) (17-alpha hydroxyprogesterone caproate). The NDA for Gestiva(TM) is currently before the FDA, pending approval for use in the prevention of preterm birth in certain categories of pregnant women. The proposed indication is for women with a history of at least one spontaneous preterm delivery (i.e., less than 37 weeks), who are pregnant with a single fetus. Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, the Company agreed to pay $82,000 for Gestiva(TM), $7,500 of which was paid at closing and recorded as in-process research and development expense. The remainder is payable on the completion of two milestones: (1) $2,000 on the earlier to occur of CYTYC's receipt of acknowledgement from the FDA that their response to the FDA's October 20, 2006 "approvable" letter is sufficient for the FDA to proceed with their review of the NDA or the receipt of FDA's approval of the Gestiva(TM) NDA and (2) $72,500 on FDA approval of a Gestiva(TM) NDA, transfer of all rights in the NDA to the Company and receipt by the Company of defined launch quantities of finished Gestiva(TM) suitable for commercial sale. In January 2008, the 133 employees represented by the Teamsters Union voted to decertify union representation effective February 7, 2008. As a result of the decertification, the Company incurred a withdrawal liability for the portion of the unfunded benefit obligation associated with the multi-employer pension plan administered by the union applicable to its employees covered by the plan. The withdrawal liability of $923 was recorded as an expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008. At March 31, 2008, the Company had invested $83,900 in the principal amount of auction rate securities ("ARS"). The Company's investments in ARS represent interests in securities that have student loans as collateral that are guaranteed by the U.S. Government. Accordingly, ARS that are backed by student loans are viewed as having low default risk and very low risk of downgrade. The interest rates on these securities are reset through an auction process that resets the applicable interest rate at pre-determined intervals, up to 35 days. The auctions have historically provided a liquid market for these securities. The ARS investments held by the Company all had AAA credit ratings at the time of purchase and at the end of the Company's fiscal 2008 year end. With the liquidity issues experienced in global credit and capital markets, the ARS held by the Company at March 31, 2008 experienced failed auctions beginning in February 2008 as the amount of securities submitted for sale exceeded the 25 amount of purchase orders. Given the failed auctions, the Company's ARS will continue to be illiquid until there is a successful auction for them. The Company cannot predict how long the current imbalance in the auction rate market will continue. The estimated fair value of the Company's ARS holdings at March 31, 2008 was 81,516, which reflected a $2,384 difference from the principal amount of $83,900. The estimated fair value of the ARS was based on a discounted cash flow model that considered, among other factors, the time to work out the market disruption in the traditional trading mechanism, the stream of cash flows (coupons) earned until maturity, the prevailing risk free yield curve, credit spreads applicable to a portfolio of student loans with various tenures and ratings and an illiquidity premium. These factors were used in a Monte Carlo simulation based methodology to derive the estimated fair value of the ARS. Although the ARS continue to pay interest according to their stated terms, the Company recorded during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 an unrealized loss of $1,550, net of tax, as a reduction to shareholders' equity in accumulated other comprehensive loss, reflecting adjustments to the ARS holdings that the Company has concluded have a temporary decline in value. ARS have historically been classified as short-term marketable securities in the Company's consolidated balance sheet. Given the failed auctions, the Company has reclassified the $81,516 of ARS as of March 31, 2008 from current assets to non-current assets. The Company believes that as of March 31, 2008, based on its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances of $126,893 and its current borrowing capacity under its credit facility of $290,000, the current lack of liquidity in the auction rate market will not have a material impact on the Company's ability to fund its operations or interfere with its external growth plans, although the Company cannot assure you that this will continue to be the case. In March 2008, representatives of the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, accompanied by representatives of the FDA, notified the Company of a hold on its inventory of certain unapproved drug products, restricting the Company's ability to remove or dispose of those inventories without permission. The hold relates to a misinterpretation about the intended scope of recent FDA notices setting limits on the marketing of unapproved guaifenesin products. In response to notices issued by the FDA in 2002 and 2003 with respect to single-entity timed-release guaifenesin products, and a further notice issued in 2007 with respect to combination timed-released guaifenesin products, the Company timely discontinued a number of its guaifenesin products and believed that, by doing so, had complied with those notices. The recent action to place a hold on certain of the Company's products indicates that additional guaifenesin products should also have been discontinued. In addition, the FDA expanded the hold to include other products that did not contain guaifenesin but were being marketed by the Company without FDA approval under certain "grandfather clauses" and statutory and regulatory exceptions to the pre-market approval requirement for "new drugs" under the FDA. FDA policies permit the agency to initiate broad action against the marketing of additional categories of the Company's unapproved products, if the FDA deems approval necessary, even if the agency has not instituted similar actions against the marketing of such products by other parties. Pursuant to discussions with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and with the FDA, the affected Morphine and Oxycodone products have been released from the hold. The Company will discontinue manufacturing and marketing substantially all unapproved products subject to the hold. The FDA has not proposed, nor does the Company expect them to propose, that the products subject to the hold be recalled from the distribution channel. As such, the Company has written-off the value of the products subject to the hold in its inventory as of March 31, 2008. The Company also evaluated the active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients used in the manufacture of the hold products and determined that they should also be written-off since the Company will be discontinuing further manufacturing and many of them cannot be returned or sold to other manufacturers. The write-off included in the results of operations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 totaled $5,500. During most of fiscal 2008, the Company marketed approximately 30 products in its generic/non-branded respiratory line, which consisted primarily of cough/cold products. The cough/cold line accounted for $38,536, or 10.5%, of the Company's specialty generic net revenues in fiscal 2008. As a result of the FDA hold discussed above, the Company is currently marketing one generic cough/cold product with four strengths that has been approved by the FDA. Since its launch in December 2007, this approved product generated sales of $884 during fiscal 2008. 26 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION This Form 10-Q, including the documents that we incorporate herein by reference, contains various forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which may be based on or include assumptions concerning our operations, future results and prospects.
