Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation
As Plan Administrator of the Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation 401(k) Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and 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 net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2005 is presented for the purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2005
1. Description of the Plan
General
The Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation 401(k) Plan, as amended, (the Plan) is a defined contribution plan available to eligible employees of Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation (the Company or Plan Sponsor). The Plan covers all employees who have attained age 21 and excludes individuals who are hired for a special project which is not expected to last more than 6 months. Eligible employees may elect to join the Plan on their initial employment date but must complete one year of service in order to receive non-elective contributions. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). For a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions please refer to the Plan document.
Contributions
Participants may make pre–tax contributions up to 100 percent of their annual compensation as defined by the Plan, and subject to the annual limits of the Internal Revenue Code. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified plans.
The Plan Sponsor matches participant contributions equal to 50 percent of the first 3 percent of the participant’s contribution. In addition, the Plan Sponsor may, at its sole discretion, make a profit sharing contribution to the Plan for any Plan year. Profit sharing contributions totaled $700,000 and matching contributions totaled $383,550 during 2005. The profit sharing contribution is provided to all eligible participants based on their relative compensation for the year.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s and Company contributions and the allocation of Plan earnings. The benefit to which a participant is allowed is limited to the vested balance in his account.

1. Description of the Plan (continued)
Vesting
Participants vest immediately in their elective contributions plus actual earnings thereon, and such amounts are nonforfeitable. Vesting in the Company contribution portion of their accounts plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of continuous service. A participant is 20 percent vested after two full years of service and vests 60 percent after three years and 100 percent after four years. A participant becomes fully vested upon disability or death or reaching normal retirement age, as defined by the Plan.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their vested account balance. Loan terms shall be no greater than five years.
Forfeitures
Forfeited balances of terminated participants’ nonvested accounts are used to pay Plan expenses not paid by the Plan Sponsor or will be used to reduce future Plan Sponsor contributions. Forfeited contributions totaled $21,293 in 2005 and the Plan used $17,464 to pay Plan expenses. At December 31, 2005 unallocated forfeitures totaled $22,414.
Benefit Payments
Upon termination of service for any reason, a participant’s account is generally distributed in a single lump-sum payment upon request. If the account balance is $1,000 or less, the entire balance is distributed to the participant.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right to terminate the Plan at any time, subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of a termination of the Plan, participants will become fully vested in their accounts.
Administrative Expenses
The Company typically pays the majority of the administrative fees for the Plan.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have been prepared on an accrual basis.
Investments Valuation
All Plan investments are held by The Charles Schwab Trust Company (“Charles Schwab” or the “Trustee”). Investments in registered investment company mutual funds are valued at quoted market prices which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. Investments in common collective trust funds are valued at fair market value as reported to the Plan by Charles Schwab. The shares of Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation common stock are valued at quoted market prices at year-end. Participant loans are valued at their outstanding balance, which approximates fair value.
The Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation Stock Fund (the Fund) is tracked on a unitized basis. The Fund consists of Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation common stock and cash sufficient to meet the Fund’s daily cash needs. Unitizing the Fund allows for daily trends. The value of a unit reflects the combined value of the common stock and the cash held by the Fund.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The realized gain or loss on investments is included with unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the current value of investments.
Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and market volatility risks. The Plan’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance of investments is limited to the carrying value of such investments. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term could materially affect the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

3. Investments

    2005   2004
     
Schwab Managed Retirement 2030
  $ 1,903,029     $ 1,371,181

    1,457,876       1,024,653  
UBS U.S. Small Cap Growth C1 Y

4. Income Tax Status
The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated September 4, 2003, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification. The Plan Sponsor believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.
5. Parties-In-Interest
Certain Plan investments are shares in mutual funds or units of common collective trust funds managed by Charles Schwab or its affiliates. Because Charles Schwab is the Plan’s trustee, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. In addition, certain Plan investments are in Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation Class A Common Stock. These transactions also qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Still other Plan investments are made in the form of loans to Plan participants. These transactions also qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
6. Subsequent Event
On February 2, 2006, the Plan was amended to change the amount that the Plan Sponsor matches participant contributions from 50% of the first 3% of the participant’s contribution to 50% of the first 6% of the participant’s contribution, effective April 1, 2006.
