Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“SciClone” or the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) consistent with those applied in, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the SEC for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other information that are normally required by GAAP can be condensed or omitted.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The interim financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of results for subsequent interim periods or for the full year. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2012 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Customer Concentration

In China, pharmaceutical products are imported and distributed through a tiered method of distribution. For the Company’s proprietary product ZADAXIN^®, the Company manufactures its product using its US and European contract manufacturers, and it generates its product sales revenue through sales of ZADAXIN products to Sinopharm Lingyun Biopharmaceutical (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. (“Sinopharm”). Sinopharm and its affiliates act as an importer, and also as the top “tier” of the distribution system (“Tier 1”) in China. The Company’s ZADAXIN sales occur when the importer purchases product from the Company, without any right of return except for damaged product or quality control issues. Passage of title and risk of loss are transferred to Sinopharm at the time of shipment. After the Company’s sale, Sinopharm clears products through China import customs, sells directly to large hospitals and holds additional product it has purchased in inventory for sale to the next tier in the distribution system. The second-tier distributors are responsible for the further sale and distribution of the products they purchase from the importer, either through sales of product directly to the retail level (hospitals and pharmacies), or to third tier local or regional distributors who, in turn, sell products to hospitals and pharmacies.

The Company’s other product sales revenues result from the sale of the Company’s in-licensed products to importing agents and distributors. Promotion services revenues result from fees received for exclusively promoting products for certain partners. These importing agents, distributors and partners are the Company’s customers.

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, revenues from two customers in China accounted for 94% of the Company’s revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, revenues from three customers in China accounted for 83% of the Company’s revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, revenues from two customers in China accounted for 92% of the Company’s revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, revenues from three customers in China accounted for 86% of the Company’s revenues. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues during the three- or six-months ended June 30, 2013 or 2012. As of June 30, 2013, approximately $45.3 million, or 94%, of the Company’s accounts receivable were attributable to three customers in China. The Company generally does not require collateral from its customers.

7

Accounts Receivable

Receivable Reserve. The Company records a receivable reserve based upon a specific review of its overdue invoices. The Company’s estimate for a reserve is determined after considering its existing contractual payment terms, payment patterns of its customers and individual customer circumstances, the age of any outstanding receivables and its current customer relationships. As of June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a receivable reserve of approximately $1.1 million related to gross accounts receivable of $4.1 million related to three customers, two of which are related parties. As of December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a receivable reserve of approximately $1.0 million related to gross accounts receivable from one customer of $3.5 million. The receivable reserve reflects the Company’s best estimate of the ultimate collection, though actual collections may vary and the Company continues to pursue the full amount of the accounts receivables.

Reserve for Product Returns. The Company maintains a reserve for product returns based on estimates of the amount of product to be returned by its customers which may result from expired product or for price reductions on the related sales and is based on historical patterns, analysis of market demand and/or a percentage of sales based on industry trends, and management’s evaluation of specific factors that may increase the risk of product returns. Importing agents or distributors do not have contractual rights of return except under limited terms regarding product quality. However, the Company is expected to replace products that have expired or are deemed to be damaged or defective when delivered. The calculation of the product returns reserve requires estimates and involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment. As a result of the uncertainties involved in estimating the product returns reserve, there is a possibility that materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had estimated a product returns reserve of $0.1 million on its consolidated balance sheets related to oncology products and Aggrastat product sales.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or delivery has occurred, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

Product Revenue. The Company recognizes product revenue from selling manufactured ZADAXIN product at the time of delivery. Sales of ZADAXIN to Sinopharm and its affiliates are recognized at time of shipment when title to the product is transferred to them. The Company also earns product revenue from purchasing medical products from pharmaceutical companies and selling them directly to importers or distributors. Sales of Pfizer products, from the date of the acquisition of the NovaMed Pharmaceuticals (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. (“NovaMed”) subsidiary in April of 2011 into October 2012, were based on the “sell-through” method as the Company’s distribution arrangement for these products allowed for payment terms dependent on when the distributor sold the product. The Company did not maintain information on the timing of “sell-through” of the Pfizer products by the distributor through this period; therefore, the Company applied the cash receipts approach for the application of the “sell-through” method as it was the most reliable information available. Accordingly, during this period of time, revenue for sales of the Pfizer products was recognized upon receipt of cash from the distributor. The Company amended the agreement on October 21, 2012, which amendment removed any contingent payment terms. Prior to the amendment, the agreement allowed for delayed payment based on the timing of sales from the distributor to the next tier customer. The amendment changed the payment terms to 60 days, thus ensuring that the distributor could not withhold payment until after the distributor received payment upon sale of product to its next tier customer. The combination of the revised payment terms, together with all of the other contractual restrictions on the distributor (e.g., no return rights or other terms that may raise question as to whether or not they had taken title and assumed “risk of loss”), permitted revenue to be recognized on a “sell-in” basis upon the amendment. Therefore, from October 21, 2012 onward, the “sell-in” method was used by the Company for recognition of related revenue. All other product sales are also recognized on the “sell-in” method, or when the medical products have been delivered to the importers or distributors.

8

Promotion Services Revenue. The Company recognizes promotion services revenue after designated medical products are delivered to the distributors as specified in the promotion services contract, which marks the period when marketing and promotion services have been rendered and the revenue recognition criteria are met. In certain arrangements, the Company is required to return or refund a portion of promotion services fees received during interim periods from pharmaceutical customers if defined annual sales targets are not achieved. Under the Company’s agreements with these customers, if the agreement is terminated, and provided such targets have been met on a “pro rata” basis at the date of contract termination, the Company is entitled to retain the amounts paid. Due to the ability to retain amounts paid upon contract termination, provided applicable targets have been met on a “pro rata” basis at any interim date, we elected to recognize revenue during interim periods without reduction for amounts subject to refund based on Method 2 of Accounting Standards Codification 605-20-S99-1, “Accounting for Management Fees Based on a Formula.” The amount of revenue recognized during the three- and six-month periods under this method that is potentially subject to refund is $1.7 million and $3.9 million, respectively. If the Company achieves the defined annual sales targets, these amounts will not be refunded.

Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods products. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value), with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis, and include amounts related to materials, labor and overhead. The Company periodically reviews the inventory in order to identify excess and obsolete items. If obsolete or excess items are observed and there are no alternate uses for the inventory, the Company will record a write-down to net realizable value in the period that the impairment is first recognized. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, the Company has not recorded any write-down related to inventory.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share has been computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common equivalent shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share includes any dilutive impact from outstanding stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and the employee stock purchase plan using the treasury stock method. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the impact of stock options, RSUs and the employee stock purchase plan were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because the inclusion would provide an anti-dilutive effect.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominators of the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share computations (in thousands, except per share amounts):

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, outstanding stock options and RSUs for 5,055,114 were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because the inclusion would provide an anti-dilutive effect. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, outstanding stock options and RSUs for 2,922,545 shares, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect from the assumed exercise of these options and RSUs calculated under the treasury stock method would have been anti-dilutive.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, outstanding stock options and RSUs for 3,293,668 and 3,063,073 shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because the effect from the assumed exercise of these options and RSUs calculated under the treasury stock method would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, shares subject to market or performance conditions of 37,638 and 82,995 respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because the performance or market criteria had not been met.

2. Available-for-Sale Investments

The following is a summary of available-for-sale investments as of (in thousands):

	June 30, 2013
	Amortized Cost		Unrealized Gains		Unrealized Losses for More Than 12 Months			Estimated Fair Value

Total available-for-sale investments	$	44,031	$	—	$	(67	)	$	43,964

The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

The Company’s restricted Italian state bonds secure its Italian value added tax filing arrangements. The unrealized losses on the bonds mainly relate to loss on foreign currency translation. The Company has concluded that it has the ability and is more likely than not that it will hold its restricted Italian state bond investments until maturity or recovery of its cost basis.

The Company’s money market funds include $2.3 million of cash in a restricted account to secure a letter of credit associated with its loan agreement with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co. Ltd. Refer also to Note 5 for further information regarding the Company’s loan agreement.

3. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of input are:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

10

Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial assets (cash equivalents and investments) measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements as of June 30, 2013 Using

Contingent Consideration

As part of the acquisition of NovaMed, the Company would have been required to pay up to an additional $43.0 million in earn-out payments upon the successful achievement of revenue and earnings targets for the 2011 and 2012 fiscal years (the “earn-out” or “contingent consideration”). Under the Agreement, the earn-out was based upon certain financial performance metrics, including a revenue-based formula and an adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, depreciation and taxes) based formula. The earn-out provisions provided that: (i) if cumulative revenue in China for legacy NovaMed products for the two fiscal years ending December 31, 2012 exceeded $94.2 million, a cash payment ranging from $0 to $11.5 million would be paid, with the full amount payable if such revenue was $117.8 million or more; and (ii) if adjusted EBITDA for the two year period ended December 31, 2012 exceeded $91.8 million, a cash payment from $17.2 million to $21.5 million would have been paid with the full amount payable if such adjusted EBITDA was $137.8 million or more. Adjusted EBITDA was defined in the Agreement to exclude certain expenses which were not generally related to operating results in China, including SciClone’s US research and development expense, certain share-based compensation, license fees paid by SciClone for new products, certain legal and advisory fees related to the Agreement or to change-in-control transactions, and certain fees and expenses, including legal fees and governmental fines or settlements paid with respect to the pending formal, non-public investigation being conducted by the SEC.

11

The earn-out provisions were subject to a number of adjustments and acceleration provisions. The total earn-out payments described above could have been increased by $10.0 million (a total maximum contingent cash consideration of $43.0 million) or reduced by $10.0 million, depending upon whether the Company was able to achieve targets relating to the renewal of the Depakine services agreement with Sanofi. The earn-out payments would have been due 20 business days after completion of the Company’s audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. The earn-out provisions were subject to various limitations and conditions specified in the Agreement.

The fair value of the earn-out was re-measured each period, and changes in the fair value were recorded to “contingent consideration” in operating expenses. As of December 31, 2012, the earn-out was determined to be zero. Through September, 30, 2012, the Company used the assistance of a third-party valuation expert to estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was subject to fluctuations as a result of adjustments to certain performance metric projections used to estimate the fair value. As of June 30, 2012, the Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $13.3 million, resulting in a non-cash gain of $1.2 million and $2.1 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration were revenue volatility of 40%; revenue discount rate of 20%, risk free rate of 0.18%; earn-out discount rate, including counterparty risk of 5%; estimates of projected revenues and earnings before taxes; and other assumptions regarding customer conditions, and probability of change of control and employment termination considerations. Significant changes in the estimated revenues, earnings before taxes; customer conditions, and revenue volatility would have resulted in changes in the fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumptions used for the revenue discount rate was accompanied by a change in the fair value of the contingent consideration.

The following represented the change in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,

Stock Options

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company granted options to purchase a total of 1,360,500 shares of common stock and options to purchase 304,023 shares of common stock were exercised. As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $5.4 million of unrecognized compensation expense cost, net of forfeitures, related to non-vested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of approximately 2.87 years.

The Company has granted a total of 62,500 shares under two performance-based options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock as of the grant date. The options will fully vest upon meeting a performance goal within an established time frame. If the performance goal is met for the option within the established time frame, the option generally has a ten-year term measured from the date of grant. If the performance goal is not met within the established time frame, the option expires in its entirety. The grant date fair value per share of the performance-based awards has been calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: expected term of 5.13-5.22 years, volatility factor of 63.66-64.65%, and risk free interest rates of 0.95-.96%. The Company recognizes expense related to a performance-based option over the period of time the Company determines that it is probable that the performance goal will be achieved. If it is subsequently determined that the performance goal is not probable of achievement, the expense related to the performance-based option is reversed. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized $0 and $36,000, respectively, of expense related to performance-based options. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized $0 and $0.1 million, respectively, of expense related to performance-based options.

13

RSUs

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, 120,000 RSUs were granted and no RSUs vested as a result of the Company’s closed trading window. As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $1.0 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of forfeitures, related to non-vested RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of approximately 1.44 years.

Repurchase of Common Stock

In May and November 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of approximately $10.5 million and $10.0 million, respectively, to the $20 million share repurchase program initiated in October 2011, bringing the total authorized under the program since inception to approximately $40.5 million. The Company was unable to repurchase shares during the three months ended June 30, 2013 due to its closed trading window. The Company repurchased and retired 502,400 shares at a cost of $2.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, $9.9 million of the $40.5 million share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors was available for future share repurchases. Repurchased shares have been retired and constitute authorized but unissued shares.

8. Licensing Agreements

Zensun (Shanghai) Science & Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zensun”)

On May 13, 2013, the Company, through a designated affiliate, entered into a binding term sheet with Zensun for the exclusive promotion, marketing, distribution and sale of Neucardin^TM in China, Hong Kong and Macau. Neucardin is a novel, first-in-class therapeutic for the treatment of patients with intermediate to advanced heart failure, for which a New Drug Application was submitted to and accepted for review by the China Food and Drug Administration (“CFDA”) in 2012. The Zensun agreement provides the principal terms of the arrangement. The Company now is negotiating a supplemental license and supply agreement.

Subject to certain conditions, the Company has agreed to make payments of up to $18.5 million to Zensun, consisting of an upfront payment amount and further amounts upon the achievement of certain milestones, including the approval of a new drug application for Neucardin™, the granting of a manufacturing license, good manufacturing practices certificate and drug approval number in China. The Company has agreed under certain conditions to make milestone payments to Zensun of $10 million if approval is received for a new device to deliver Neucardin™ and of $25 million if approval is received for the use of Neucardin™ in additional indications. In addition, the Company has agreed, subject to the entry into mutually acceptable definitive agreements and the satisfaction of certain conditions, to provide a collateralized loan to Zensun of up to approximately $12.0 million. The Company anticipates funding all or some of the $12.0 million loan in the second half of 2013. Zensun is required to refund and return the upfront payment it received to the Company if Zensun terminates the agreement for failure of the Company to fund all or some of the loan to Zensun. Zensun will be responsible for manufacture of the product and the Company has agreed to purchase the product exclusively from Zensun for the duration of the agreement.

Taiwan Liposome Company (“TLC”)

In June 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with TLC granting the Company a license and the exclusive rights in China, Hong Kong and Macau to promote, market, distribute and sell ProFlow^® for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (“PAD”) and other indications. Under the terms of the agreement, TLC will be responsible for the continued development including potential clinical trials and regulatory activities, as well as the manufacture and supply of ProFlow, and the Company will be responsible for all aspects of commercialization including pre-and post-launch activities. ProFlow has been submitted to the CFDA for approval, and it is expected that some additional clinical testing may be required prior to approval. Financial terms of the agreement include clinical regulatory milestone payments and sales milestone payments up to an aggregate of $39.5 million. The agreement provides for the principal terms of the arrangement between SciClone and TLC, and the Company is negotiating a supplemental license and supply agreement.

14

For the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded upfront payments totaling $5.0 million in research and development expense related to its licensing arrangements with TLC and Zensun.

9. Other Corporate Matters

On August 5, 2010, SciClone was contacted by the SEC and advised that the SEC has initiated a formal, non-public investigation of SciClone, and the SEC issued a subpoena to SciClone requesting a variety of documents and other information. The subpoena requests documents relating to a range of matters including, but not limited to, potential payments or transfers of anything of value to regulators and government-owned entities in China, bids or contracts with state or government-owned entities in China, any joint venture partner, intermediary or local agent of the Company in China, the Company’s ethics and anti-corruption policies, training, and audits, and certain company financial and other disclosures. On August 6, 2010, the Company received a letter from the US Department of Justice (“DOJ”) indicating that the DOJ was investigating Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) issues in the pharmaceutical industry generally, and that the DOJ had information about the Company’s practices suggesting possible violations. The Company will continue to cooperate fully with the SEC and DOJ in the conduct of their investigations.

In response to these matters, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed a Special Committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) to oversee the Company’s response to the government inquiry. Based on an initial review, the Special Committee decided to undertake an independent investigation as to matters reflected in and arising from the SEC and DOJ investigations including, but not limited to, certain sales and marketing matters in China, in order to evaluate whether any violation of the FCPA or other laws occurred.

The Company received a further subpoena from the SEC in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and in order to respond to inquiries from the DOJ and SEC and to determine if any wrong-doing occurred, the Audit Committee determined to undertake an additional independent investigation as to additional matters including but not limited to matters related to our acquisition of NovaMed and FCPA matters, and certain sales and marketing expenses.

The Company cannot predict what the outcome of those investigations will be, or the timing of any resolution. However, due to the significant uncertainty as to the outcome of the investigation, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the loss or range of loss that may be incurred. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has therefore not accrued a liability for the contingent loss related to the FCPA investigation. Any fines or penalties that may be imposed, or other losses that may be realized related to the investigations, could materially impact the Company’s financial statements. The Company will continue to reassess the potential liability related to the investigations and adjust its estimates accordingly in future periods.

NovaMed is a party to a Distribution and Supply Agreement with MEDA Pharma GmbH & Co. KG (“MEDA”). Following the Company’s acquisition of NovaMed, NovaMed continued to perform this agreement; however, MEDA claimed it had a right to terminate the agreement under a change of control provision. NovaMed does not believe that MEDA had a right of termination under the agreement. NovaMed and MEDA were in negotiations since the acquisition regarding potential amendments to the agreement that would resolve the disagreement. However no resolution was reached. MEDA notified NovaMed that the termination was effective as of May 2011, however as provided in the agreement, disputes, including disputes regarding termination must be resolved in binding arbitration. The Company does not expect any significant revenues from this agreement until 2014. NovaMed filed an application for binding arbitration with the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (“CIETAC”) on July 26, 2012. On October 10, 2012, MEDA filed an initial response and counterclaim with CIETAC claiming MEDA’s termination was valid and demanding the transfer of certain information and rights, as well as demanding the award of damages, including attorneys’ fees in an unspecified amount. On April 16, 2013, MEDA filed a further response stating their claims and facts in support of their initial response and counterclaim. A hearing on the merits of the matter is scheduled to be held before the CIETAC arbitration panel from August 20through August 22, 2013 in Shanghai.

15

On March 11, 2013, Adam Crum filed a derivative lawsuit, purportedly in the name of SciClone, against Friedhelm Blobel, Gary Titus, Jon Saxe, Peter Barrett, Richard Hawkins, Gregg Lapointe and Ira Lawrence in California Superior Court, San Mateo County, captioned Crum v. Blobel, et al, Case No. CIV520331. The lawsuit alleges, based on the restatement, that the Board of Directors and management breached their fiduciary duties to the Company by not exercising oversight in such a way that they allowed the Company to file consolidated financial statements that were materially inaccurate. Plaintiff asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control and mismanagement. Plaintiff seeks, among other things, injunctive relief, disgorgement, undisclosed damages and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company’s management believes that the claims lack merit and will vigorously defend against them.

10. Segment Information and Geographic Data

The Company reports segment information based on the internal reporting used by management for evaluating segment performance based on management’s estimates of the appropriate allocation of resources to segments.

The Company operates and manages its business primarily on a geographic basis. Accordingly, the Company determined its operating and reporting segments, which are generally based on the nature and location of its customers, to be 1) China and 2) Rest of the World, including the US and Hong Kong.

The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on revenues and operating income (loss). Revenues for geographic segments are generally based on the location of customers. Operating income for each segment includes revenues, related cost of sales and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment. Operating income (loss) for each segment excludes non-operating income and expense. Operating loss for the Rest of the World segment includes the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration, all research and development expense for the Company’s SCV-07 trial, which was discontinued in the first quarter of 2012, and upfront payments totaling $5.0 million related to the Company’s licensing arrangements with TLC and Zensun.

11. Subsequent Events

Escrow Settlement Agreement. On October 16, 2012, the Company made a claim against the former stockholders of NovaMed pursuant to the acquisition agreement relating to our acquisition of NovaMed. As a result of the Company’s claim, approximately $1.4 million in cash held in escrow and 622,363 shares of the Company’s common stock held in escrow were not released to the former NovaMed stockholders pending the outcome of the Company’s claim. The claim related to damages the Company incurred as a result of misrepresentations made by NovaMed regarding various matters, including the estimated product return reserves for Aggrastat product on the date of the acquisition, and related expenses and damages. On July 8, 2013, the Company and the representatives of the former stockholders of NovaMed entered into a Confidential “Escrow Settlement Agreement” pursuant to which the Company will retain approximately $0.8 million in cash and 342,300 shares of its common stock, having a combined value of approximately $2.6 million on the settlement date. The Company intends to cancel and retire the shares.

Chief Financial Officer. On July 15, 2013, the Company announced the appointment of Wilson W. Cheung as Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President, Finance.

Share Repurchase Program. In August 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of $10 million to the existing $40.5 million share repurchase program initiated in October 2011, bringing the total authorized under the program since inception to $50.5 million. In addition, the Board of Directors approved extending the repurchase program through December 31, 2014. As of August 7, 2013, $19.9 million of the total $50.5 million was available for share repurchase.

Overview

SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: SCLN) is a revenue-generating, United States (“US”)-based, China-focused, specialty pharmaceutical company with a substantial commercial business and a product portfolio of therapies for oncology, infectious diseases, cardiovascular, urological, respiratory and central nervous system disorders. We are focused on continuing to grow our revenue and profitability in the future. Our business and corporate strategy is focused primarily on the People’s Republic of China (“China”) where we have built a solid reputation and established a strong brand through many years of experience marketing our lead product, ZADAXIN (thymalfasin). In addition, we have an established product promotion business model with large pharmaceutical partners and we are focused on establishing profitability in all of these collaborations. We believe our sales and marketing strengths position us to benefit from the long-term expansion of the pharmaceutical market in China. This pharmaceutical market currently ranks third among the global pharmaceutical markets, and we believe China will rank second among global pharmaceutical markets by 2020. We seek to expand our presence in China and increase revenues by growing sales and profitability of our current product portfolio, launching new products from our development pipeline, adding new, profitable product services agreements and leveraging our strong cash position to in-license additional products.

We operate in two segments which are generally based on the nature and location of our customers: 1) China and 2) the rest of the world which includes our US and Hong Kong operations.

We have two categories of revenues: “product sales revenues” and “promotion services revenues.” Our product sales revenues result from our proprietary and in-licensed products, including our lead product, ZADAXIN, and products from Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”) and Correvio LLC. ZADAXIN has the highest margins in our portfolio as it is a premium proprietary product sold exclusively by SciClone. Aggrastat^®, an intervention cardiology product launched in China in 2009, is an in-licensed product with higher margins than the products we promote under services agreements and we anticipate revenues from this product will grow significantly as it further penetrates the China market. In addition, we anticipate that new marketed products, when and if introduced, can increase the future revenues and profitability of our pharmaceutical business in China over the coming years. Our “promotion services revenues” result from fees we receive for exclusively promoting products under services agreements with certain pharmaceutical partners, including Sanofi Aventis S.A. (“Sanofi”) and Baxter International, Inc. (“Baxter”) in China. We refer to these agreements as promotion agreements, service agreements and distribution contract rights agreements. We recognize promotion services revenues as a percentage of our collaborators’ product sales revenue for these exclusively promoted products, such as the anti-epileptic drug Depakine^®, the hypnotic Stilnox^® (marketed as Ambien^® in the US) and the ACE inhibitor Tritace^®. Over time, as additional proprietary or in-licensed products come to the market, we aim to shift our product mix towards those products providing higher margin for us.

18

In January 2013, our promotion agreement with Sanofi was renewed until December 31, 2013 under the same terms as previously negotiated. Revenues for 2011 and 2012 related to our agreement with Sanofi were approximately $19.7 million and $30.8 million, respectively. We are actively negotiating the further renewal or extension of this agreement. In June 2013, we renewed our promotion agreement with Baxter for a 5 year term, through December 2017. Our other significant promotion agreement with Pfizer International Trading (Shanghai) Ltd. (“Pfizer”) will be expiring August 31, 2013 unless renewed, extended or renegotiated. Revenues for 2011 and 2012 related to our agreement with Pfizer were approximately $5.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively. We are actively negotiating the renewal or extension of this agreement. We continue to assess the financial performance of the products we promote under our agreements and their overall value within our entire portfolio of products. As part of this process, we have recently discontinued promotion of our oncology products Adriamycin and Daunoblastina for Pfizer, and Perenan a primary care product for Sanofi. Revenues related to these products were approximately $2.7 million and $1.5 million in 2011 and 2012, respectively. Over time, we anticipate the product mix that we promote will change which may affect our revenues and profitability in the future. If any of these agreements are determined to no longer be beneficial to us and are allowed to expire, or if third parties will not renegotiate, renew or extend the agreements on terms acceptable to us, our revenues would be adversely affected and our profitability may be adversely or beneficially affected.

ZADAXIN is approved in over 30 countries and may be used for the treatment of HBV, HCV, and certain cancers, and as a vaccine adjuvant according to the local regulatory approvals we have in these countries. In China, thymalfasin is included in the treatment guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health (“MOH”) for liver cancer, as well as guidelines for treatment of chronic HBV (issued by both the Chinese Medical Association and the Asian-Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver) and invasive fungal infections of critically ill patients (issued by the Chinese Medical Association). Our sales force is focused on increasing sales to the country’s largest hospitals (class 3 with over 500 beds) as well as mid-size hospitals (class 2). These hospitals serve Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities located mostly in the eastern part of China which are the largest and generally have the most affluent populations. We are widening our market strategies by targeting numerous smaller hospitals as well as hospitals that are in more rural areas. We are also seeking to expand the indications for which ZADAXIN could be used, including sepsis.

We are also pursuing the registration of several other therapeutic products in China. These include: DC Bead^®, an embolic acting bead with drug loading capabilities that can be used for targeted delivery of cancer chemotherapy drugs directly to the tumor; Loramyc^®, a mucoadhesive tablet formulation of miconazole lauriad to treat oropharyngeal candidiasis; Rapinyl^®, a sublingual tablet formulation of fentanyl to treat breakthrough cancer pain; and RapidFilm^®, an oral film formulation of ondansetron to treat nausea induced by chemotherapy.

We continue to seek in-licensing arrangements for approved or late-stage branded, well-differentiated products which if not yet approved, have a clear regulatory approval pathway in China based on existing regulatory approval outside of China. Our objective is to in-license products that provide us with higher margins, augmenting our product sales revenue and profitability, and we continue to explore opportunities to optimize our promotion services revenues. In May 2013, we entered into a binding term sheet with Zensun (Shanghai) Science & Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zensun”) for the exclusive promotion, marketing, distribution and sale of Neucardin^TM in China, Hong Kong and Macau. Neucardin is a novel, first-in-class therapeutic for the treatment of patients with intermediate to advanced heart failure, for which a New Drug Application was submitted to and accepted for review by the China Food and Drug Administration (“CFDA”) in 2012.

In June 2013, we entered into a license agreement with Taiwan Liposome Company (“TLC”) which granted us a license and the exclusive rights in China, Hong Kong and Macau to promote, market, distribute and sell ProFlow^® for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (“PAD”) and other indications. PAD is a serious cardiovascular condition in which blood flow to the limbs (usually the legs) is restricted due to arterial plaque build-up. Under the terms of the agreement, TLC will be responsible for the continued development including potential clinical trials and regulatory activities, as well as the manufacture and supply of ProFlow, and we will be responsible for all aspects of commercialization including pre-and post-launch activities. ProFlow has been submitted to CFDA for approval, and it is expected that some additional clinical testing may be required prior to approval. The agreement provides for the principal terms of the arrangement between SciClone and TLC, and the companies have agreed to negotiate a supplemental license and supply agreement.

We believe that these licensing agreements for Neucardin and ProFlow provide us the opportunity to use our considerable sales and marketing expertise to expand our product portfolio with differentiated, high quality products that have significant therapeutic advantages and near-term commercial potential, and that can contribute to our long-term growth.

ZADAXIN Inventories and Sales

ZADAXIN revenues for the first half of 2013 were within our operating plan, but were lower compared to the same period in 2012. During the third quarter and particularly in September 2012, we estimate that there was a substantial increase in ZADAXIN channel inventory levels, and we believe that sales to our customers, importers and distributors exceeded the pace at which they were able to sell ZADAXIN through to hospital pharmacies and other parties, resulting in lower commercial sales to our importer in the fourth quarter of 2012 and first half of 2013. As anticipated, as a result of reduced sales to our importer, and of continued demand for ZADAXIN in the market, we believe ZADAXIN channel inventory returned to normal levels as of June 30, 2013. We have made significant organizational and management enhancements designed to improve our sales and marketing performance going forward, including the hiring of an experienced Chief Executive Officer for China Operations. We continue to believe that we will grow hospital demand for ZADAXIN in the future through increased penetration in the market. We believe ZADAXIN revenues for the second half of 2013 will increase approximately 50% compared to the first half of 2013, although we anticipate ZADAXIN revenues for the full year 2013 will be lower than ZADAXIN revenues for 2012.

Other Matters

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the US Department of Justice (“DOJ”) are each conducting formal investigations of SciClone regarding a range of matters, including the possibility of violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”). We will continue to cooperate fully with the SEC and DOJ in the conduct of their investigations. In response to these matters, our Board of Directors appointed a Special Committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) to oversee our response to the government inquiry. The Special Committee substantially concluded its original investigation, and on May 4 and 5, 2011 reported its findings and recommendations to the Board of Directors. The Special Committee has also reported findings to the SEC and DOJ. The SEC’s and DOJ’s formal investigations are continuing and the Company is continuing to cooperate with those investigations, including undertaking a review or investigation of additional matters, primarily related to our NovaMed Pharmaceuticals (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. (“NovaMed”) operations and certain sales and marketing expenses.

In our Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2012, filed with the SEC on November 9, 2012, we disclosed, among other things, a non-cash impairment loss to fully write down the value of intangible assets recorded as part of the NovaMed acquisition; a remeasurement of the valuation of the contingent consideration expense recorded as part of the NovaMed acquisition; a significant increase in ZADAXIN channel inventory levels; and internal control issues primarily within the NovaMed organization that was concluded to represent a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. Following our disclosure of these items, we received a subpoena from the SEC requesting documents related to these and various other matters regarding the NovaMed acquisition and our operations in China. After review of the subpoena, and in order to respond to inquiries from the DOJ and SEC and to determine if any wrong-doing occurred, our Audit Committee determined to undertake an additional independent investigation as to additional matters including, but not limited to, matters related to our acquisition of NovaMed and FCPA matters, including certain sales and marketing expenses.

We are unable to predict what consequences any investigation by any regulatory agency or the Special Committee or the Audit Committee may have on us. Our cooperation with these investigations has resulted in substantial legal and accounting expenses, has diverted management’s attention from other business concerns and could harm our business. The ongoing investigations and any other regulatory investigations that might be initiated in the future will result in similar substantial expenses, management diversion and harm to our business. If we fail to comply with regulations or to carry out controls on our Chinese or other foreign operations in a manner that satisfies all applicable laws, our business would be harmed. Any civil or criminal action commenced against us by a regulatory agency could result in administrative orders against us, the imposition of significant penalties and/or fines against us and/or the imposition of civil or criminal sanctions against certain of our officers, directors and/or employees. The investigations, results of the investigations, or remedial actions we have taken or may take as a result of such investigations may adversely affect our business in China. If we are subject to adverse findings resulting from the SEC and DOJ investigations, or from our own independent investigation, we could be required to pay damages or penalties or have other remedies imposed upon us. In addition, we will incur additional expenses related to remedial measures we are undertaking, and could incur fines or other penalties. The period of time necessary to resolve the investigations by the DOJ and the SEC is uncertain, and these matters are requiring significant management and financial resources which could otherwise be devoted to the operation of our business. We cannot predict what the outcome of those investigations will be, or the timing of any resolution.

On February 22, 2013, we announced that our reported financial results for each of the second and third quarters of 2011, the year ended December 31, 2011, and the first three quarters of fiscal 2012 could not be relied upon and that we would restate them. Subsequently, we received a purported derivative litigation naming certain of our officers and directors as defendants. Our management believes the claims lack merit and will vigorously defend against them.

Refer to Part I, Item 1 “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” Note 9 “Other Corporate Matters” and Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” in this Form 10-Q for further information regarding the investigation and remedial measures, and related litigation.

We believe our cash, cash equivalents, and investments as of June 30, 2013 and ongoing revenue generating business operations will be sufficient to support our current operating plan for at least the next 12 months. Our results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and we may report losses in the future.

Results of Operations

Revenues:

The following table summarizes the period over period changes in our product sales and promotion services (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,							Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012		Change			2013		2012		Change
Product Sales	$	21,683	$	33,284		-35	%	$	42,216	$	66,447		-36	%
Promotion Services		7,609		8,085		-6	%		16,882		15,990		6	%
Total Net Revenues	$	29,292	$	41,369		-29	%	$	59,098	$	82,437		-28	%

Product sales were $21.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $33.3 million for the corresponding period in 2012, a decrease of $11.6 million, or 35%, for the three-months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in the prior year. ZADAXIN sales were $21.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $30.4 million for the corresponding period of 2012, a decrease of $8.6 million. The decrease in ZADAXIN revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to same period in the prior year was substantially all attributable to a decrease in unit sales. The additional decrease of $3.0 million related to oncology and Aggrastat product sales. Product sales were $42.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $66.4 million for the corresponding period in 2012, a decrease of $24.2 million, or 36%, for the six-months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in the prior year. ZADAXIN sales were $40.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $60.2 million for the corresponding period of 2012, a decrease of $19.4 million. The decrease in ZADAXIN revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to same period in the prior year was substantially all attributable to a decrease in unit sales. The additional decrease of $4.8 million related to oncology and Aggrastat product sales.

During the third quarter of 2012 and particularly in September 2012, we estimate that there was a substantial increase in ZADAXIN channel inventory levels and we believe that our sales to our customers exceeded the pace at which our customers were able to sell ZADAXIN through to other parties, primarily hospital pharmacies. As anticipated, as a result of reduced sales to our importer, and of continued demand for ZADAXIN in the market, we believe ZADAXIN channel inventory returned to normal levels as of June 30, 2013. We have made significant organizational and management enhancements designed to improve our sales and marketing performance going forward, including the hiring of an experienced Chief Executive Officer for China Operations. We believe ZADAXIN sales for the second half of 2013 will increase approximately 50% compared to the first half of 2013, although we anticipate ZADAXIN revenues for the full year 2013 will be lower than ZADAXIN revenues for 2012. We continue to believe that we will grow future hospital demand for ZADAXIN through increased penetration in the market.

21

Promotion services revenue was $7.6 million, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $8.1 million for the corresponding period in 2012, and related to the distribution of products under promotional contracts. Promotion services revenue was $16.9 million, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $16.0 million for the corresponding period in 2012. The $0.5 million and $0.9 million decrease in promotion services revenue for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively, were primarily as a result of weaker demand for our primary care products Xatral^® and Tritace^®, and the discontinuance of Perenan^®.

Total China revenues were $28.2 million, or 96% of total revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $40.5 million, or 98% of total revenues for the corresponding period in 2012. Total China revenues were $57.0 million, or 96% of total revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $80.9 million, or 98% of total revenues for the corresponding period in 2012.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, revenues from two customers in China accounted for approximately 24% and 71% of our revenues. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, revenues from three customers in China accounted for approximately 34%, 31% and 18% of our revenues. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, revenues from two customers in China accounted for approximately 27% and 65% of our revenues. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, revenues from three customers in China accounted for approximately 51%, 18% and 17% of our revenues. Our experience with our largest customers has been good and we anticipate that we will continue to sell a majority of our product to them.

In China, pharmaceutical products are imported and distributed through a tiered method of distribution. For our proprietary product ZADAXIN, we manufacture our product using our US and European contract manufacturers, and we generate our product sales revenue through sales of ZADAXIN product to Sinopharm Lingyun Biopharmaceutical (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. (“Sinopharm”). Sinopharm and its affiliates act as an importer, and also as the top “tier” of the distribution system (“Tier 1”) in China. Our ZADAXIN sales occur when Sinopharm purchases product from us without any right of return except for damaged product or quality control issues. Passage of title and risk of loss are transferred to Sinopharm at the time of shipment. After the sale, Sinopharm clears products through China import customs, sells directly to large hospitals and holds additional product it has purchased in inventory for sale to the next tier in the distribution system. The second-tier distributors are responsible for the further sale and distribution of the products they purchase from the importer, either through sales of product directly to the retail level (hospitals and pharmacies), or to third tier local or regional distributors who, in turn, sell products to hospitals and pharmacies.

Our other product sales revenues result from the sale of the Company’s in-licensed products to importing agents. Our promotion services revenues result from fees received for exclusively promoting products for certain partners. These importing agents, distributors and partners are the Company’s customers. It takes approximately seven weeks for our China importation customer to clear a shipment of ZADAXIN through the importation process for sale in China. Our customers tend to purchase infrequent large orders of ZADAXIN inventory to facilitate the distribution and sale to Chinese hospital pharmacies. The timing of infrequent large orders may significantly affect the ZADAXIN channel inventory levels and may cause fluctuations to our reported sales and profitability for each quarterly period.

In January 2013, our promotion agreement with Sanofi was renewed until December 31, 2013 under the same terms as previously negotiated. Revenues for 2011 and 2012 related to our agreement with Sanofi were approximately $19.7 million and $30.8 million, respectively. We are actively negotiating the renewal or extension of this agreement. In June 2013, we renewed our promotion agreement with Baxter for a 5 year term, through December 2017. Our other significant promotion agreement with Pfizer will be expiring August 31, 2013 unless renewed, extended or renegotiated. Revenues for 2011 and 2012 related to our agreement with Pfizer were approximately $5.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively. We are actively negotiating the renewal or extension of this agreement. We continue to assess the financial performance of the products we promote under our agreements and their overall value within our entire portfolio of products. As part of this process, we have recently discontinued promotion of our oncology products Adriamycin and Daunoblastina for Pfizer, and the primary care product, Perenan, for Sanofi. Revenues related to these products were approximately $2.7 million and $1.5 million in 2011 and 2012, respectively. Over time, we anticipate the product mix that we promote will change which may affect our revenues and profitability in the future. If any of these agreements are determined to no longer be beneficial to us and are allowed to expire, or if third parties will not renegotiate, renew or extend the agreements on terms acceptable to us, our revenues would be adversely affected and our profitability may be adversely or beneficially affected.

Cost of Product Sales:

The following table summarizes the period over period changes in our cost of product sales (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June  30,							Six Months Ended June  30,
	2013		2012		Change			2013		2012		Change
Cost of Product Sales	$	3,205	$	5,664		-43	%	$	7,823	$	11,196		-30	%

Cost of product sales was $3.2 million and $5.7 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. A decrease of $1.0 million, or 24%, for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was attributable to a decrease in ZADAXIN cost of sales to $3.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $4.2 million for the corresponding period in 2012, and related to a decrease in ZADAXIN unit sales. A decrease of $1.5 million in oncology and Aggrastat cost of sales related to a decrease in part to unit volumes and in part to unit price decreases for those products. Gross margin for ZADAXIN was 85.4% and 86.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in gross margin for ZADAXIN for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, was due primarily to a reduction in the list price of ZADAXIN since October 2012.

Cost of product sales was $7.8 million and $11.2 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. A decrease of $1.4 million, or 17%, for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was attributable to a decrease in ZADAXIN cost of sales to $6.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $8.3 million for the corresponding period in 2012, and related to a decrease in ZADAXIN unit sales. A decrease of $2.0 million in oncology and Aggrastat cost of sales related to a decrease in part to unit volumes and in part to unit price decreases for those products. Gross margin for ZADAXIN was 83.0% and 86.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in gross margin for ZADAXIN for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, was due primarily to costs incurred related to planned manufacturing process improvements for ZADAXIN, costs incurred for product warehousing fees related to the renewal of our ZADAXIN China import license, and to a reduction in the list price of ZADAXIN since October 2012.

We expect our ZADAXIN cost of product sales and gross margins to fluctuate from period to period depending upon the level of sales and price of our products, the absorption of product-related fixed costs, currency exchange fluctuations, any charges associated with excess or expiring finished product inventory, and the timing of other inventory period costs such as manufacturing process improvements for the goal of future cost reductions.

Overall, we expect our gross margin percentages in 2013 to remain comparable to 2012, although they may fluctuate from quarter to quarter.

Sales and Marketing:

The following table summarizes the period over period changes in our sales and marketing expenses (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,							Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012		Change			2013		2012		Change
Sales and Marketing	$	14,269	$	17,504		-18	%	$	25,468	$	35,144		-28	%

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased by $3.2 million, or 18%, compared to the same period in 2012. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 decreased by $9.7 million, or 28%, compared to the same period in 2012. In 2013, we began expense-saving measures in our sales and marketing activities although the continued impact in the future is uncertain. We have also strategically reduced our sales force by over 150 salespersons compared to June 30, 2012. In addition, certain training and promotional events were postponed and are anticipated to occur during the second half of 2013.We expect sales and marketing expenses for the year ending December 31, 2013 to be lower compared to those incurred for the year ended December 31, 2012.

23

Amortization and Impairment of Acquired Intangible Assets:

For the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized $0.9 million and $1.8 million in amortization of acquired intangible assets expense. Amortization of acquired intangible assets reflects the amortization of services and distribution contract intangible assets acquired as part of the NovaMed acquisition on April 18, 2011.

During the third quarter ended September 30, 2012, we identified an impairment indicator with respect to the intangible assets related to our promotion and distribution contract rights. We determined that the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the intangible assets were less than the carrying amounts. We further performed a discounted cash flow analysis related to the intangible assets and determined that a full impairment should be recorded. As a result, we recognized a non-cash impairment loss of approximately $42.7 million in the third quarter of 2012. No further amortization expense will be recorded related to our NovaMed acquired intangible assets.

Research and Development (“R&D”):

The following table summarizes the period over period changes in our R&D expenses (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,							Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012		Change			2013		2012		Change
Research and Development	$	5,406	$	1,493		262	%	$	5,771	$	4,886		18	%

R&D expenses for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2013, increased by $3.9 million, or 262%, and $0.9 million, or 18%, compared to the same periods in 2012.

For the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded $5.0 million in research and development expense related to upfront payments payable under its recent in-license arrangements with Zensun and TLC. This increase in R&D was partially offset by decreases to R&D expenses during the 2013 periods related to the announcement in March 2012 of the discontinuation of our SCV-07 phase 2b clinical trial for the delay to onset of severe oral mucositis based on the results of the pre-planned interim analysis that indicated that the trial would not meet the pre-specified efficacy endpoints.

The major components of R&D expenses include salaries and other personnel-related expenses, including associated stock-based compensation, facility-related expenses, depreciation of facilities and equipment, license-related fees, services performed by clinical research organizations and research institutions and other outside service providers.

We expect our research and development expenses to increase in 2013, compared to 2012, related to our arrangements with Zensun and TLC which include $5.0 million in upfront fees recorded in the second quarter of 2013, and may include an additional milestone payment to TLC of $0.8 million upon clinical trial application approval which the Company anticipates may occur in the fourth quarter of 2013 or the first quarter of 2014, offset by decreases in research and development expenses as a result of the discontinuation of the SCV-07 phase 2b clinical trial. We continue to evaluate opportunities to in-license the marketing rights to proprietary products primarily in China, which may result in increased research and development expenses due to license fee payments, local registration clinical trials, or other expenses related to in-licensing and development of new products in the future.

General and Administrative:

The following table summarizes the period over period changes in our general and administrative expenses (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,							Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012		Change			2013		2012		Change
General and Administrative	$	7,954	$	4,455		79	%	$	16,554	$	8,416		97	%

24

General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 increased by $3.5 million, or 79%, compared to the same period in 2012. The increases included higher professional expenses of approximately $1.7 million related to legal matters associated with the ongoing government investigation and our ongoing improvements to our FCPA compliance efforts, approximately $0.4 million related to legal matters associated with our MEDA Pharma GmbH & Co. KG (“MEDA”) arbitration and with our escrow claim on the NovaMed sellers, and increases related to accounting matters involving consultant with the Securities and Exchange Commission related to one aspect of our accounting for one of our contracts. General and administrative expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 increased by $8.1 million, or 97%, compared to the same period in 2012. The increases included higher professional expenses of approximately $3.3 million related to legal matters associated with the ongoing government investigation and our ongoing improvements to our FCPA compliance efforts, approximately $0.7 million related to legal matters associated with our MEDA arbitration and escrow claim on the NovaMed sellers; and approximately $1.0 million related to accounting matters associated with the restatement of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 and certain quarters of 2011 and 2012 and matters involving consultation with the Securities and Exchange Commission related to one aspect of our accounting for one of our contracts, as well as higher general and administrative personnel-related costs.

We expect our general and administrative expenses in 2013 to increase compared to 2012 as we anticipate higher legal and accounting costs in 2013. Our ongoing government investigations are unpredictable and we expect they will result in continuing legal costs or fines or penalties and could affect our expenses or the timing thereof. We do not expect to incur any significant acquisition-related costs in 2013, however we anticipate an increase in legal and accounting expenses in 2013 compared to 2012 due primarily to our restatement and transition to new auditors. We continue to evaluate opportunities in China, which may result in increased general and administrative expenses in the future. See Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings”.

Contingent Consideration:

As part of the acquisition of NovaMed, we would have been required to pay up to an additional $43.0 million in earn-out payments upon the successful achievement of revenue and earnings targets for the 2011 and 2012 fiscal years (the “earn-out” or “contingent consideration”). We initially recorded $18.9 million as the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration. The fair value of the contingent consideration was remeasured each quarter, and changes to the fair value were recorded to contingent consideration expense or gain. As of December 31, 2012, the fair value of the earn-out was determined to be $0, resulting in a gain of $15.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Through September 30, 2012, the Company used the assistance of a third-party valuation expert to estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was subject to fluctuations as a result of adjustments to certain performance metric projections used to estimate the fair value that resulted in gains of $1.2 million and $2.1 million for the three-and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012. Our fair value estimates were based on a variety of factors that significantly fluctuated from period to period, including the likelihood that earn-out targets would be achieved and present value factors associated with the timing of the earn-out targets. The significant reduction in the valuation of the contingent consideration expense as of December 31, 2012 was primarily due to revenue and EBITDA (earnings before interest, depreciation and taxes) targets not being achieved and to the reduced probability of renewal relating to NovaMed’s product distribution agreements including, in particular, the target of renewing the Depakine services agreement with Sanofi for a five-year term. The Depakine services agreement was extended through December 31, 2013, a term less than five years.

Provision for Income Tax:

The provision for income tax relates to our foreign operations in China. The provision for income tax was $0.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $1.3 million of expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2012. The tax expense decreased $0.8 million for the three-month period, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of lower taxable income. The provision for income tax relates to our foreign operations in China. The provision for income tax was $1.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $2.1 million of expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012. The tax expense decreased $0.8 million for the six-month period, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of lower taxable income. Our statutory tax rate in China was 25% in 2012 and 2013. We expect the provision for income tax to increase for the year ending December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, as we do not expect the tax benefits we recorded during 2012 related to the reversal of deferred tax liabilities, due to the impairment loss recorded on our intangible assets in 2012, to recur in 2013.

25

Subsequent Event:

On July 8, 2013, we and the representatives of the former stockholders of NovaMed entered into a Confidential “Escrow Settlement Agreement” pursuant to which we will retain approximately $0.8 million in cash and 342,300 shares of our common stock, having a combined fair value of approximately $2.6 million on the settlement date. As a result, we anticipate our results will be positively impacted by approximately $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2013 related to this settlement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We continue to closely manage our liquidity and capital resources. We rely on our operating cash flows, cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and our short-term loan arrangement to provide for our liquidity requirements. We continue to believe that we have the ability to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months to fund our working capital requirements of our operations, including investments in our business, share repurchases, to pay down our short-term borrowing arrangements, and to fund our business development activities.

The following tables summarize our cash and investments and our cash flow activities as of the end of, and for each of, the years presented (in thousands):

	As of		As of
	June 30, 2013		December 31, 2012
Cash, cash equivalents and investments	$	78,018	$	86,987

As of June 30, 2013, we had $78.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments of which $61.6 million was located in subsidiaries of the Company outside the US. Cash and cash equivalents held by subsidiaries outside the US is held primarily in US dollars. Such cash and cash equivalents are used to fund the operating activities of our foreign subsidiaries and for further investment in foreign operations which may include in-licensing new products, particularly for China, and for potential acquisitions. We historically have considered undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely reinvested outside of the US, and accordingly, no US taxes have been provided thereon. We currently intend to continue to indefinitely reinvest the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries outside of the US. Based on our current operating plan for the next 12 months, we do not anticipate the repatriation of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries, if any, would result in payment of US Federal taxes.

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2013			2012
Cash (used in) provided by:
Operating activities	$	(7,648	)	$	21,775
Investing activities	$	(87	)	$	(864	)
Financing activities	$	(1,226	)	$	(6,031	)

Net cash used in operating activities was $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and primarily reflected the net income for the period, adjusted for non-cash items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Such changes included an $8.8 million decrease in cash received from customers for accounts receivable related to an $18.0 million customer payment in transit as of June 30, 2013 that was subsequently received in July 2013. In addition, accounts receivable decreased as of June 30, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012 related to lower 2013 sales for the first half of 2013. As of June 30, 2013, we have accounts receivable totaling approximately $4.1 million which are substantially delinquent and which we are actively trying to collect, and for which we have recorded a reserve of $1.0 million. The customers have a binding obligation to pay us, but we may have to pursue legal remedies, and there can be no assurance if we are not paid and we pursue legal action what the timing or result of such action would be. Inventory also decreased $2.2 million in the 2013 period, related to a planned reduction in inventory levels associated with the renewal of our ZADAXIN China import license. The changes also included a $1.0 million and $3.5 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses, respectively, mainly related to payments for goods sold, manufacturing costs, legal and professional expenses, and clinical trial services.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $21.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and primarily reflected the net income for the period adjusted for non-cash items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense and changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and was related to the purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.2 million and $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we used $2.5 million and $8.9 million to repurchase and retire 502,400 and 1,581,229 shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we also received $0.7 million and $2.9 million of proceeds, respectively, from the issuances of common stock made under our stock award plans. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, our subsidiary borrowed $0.6 million under its loan agreement with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co. Ltd.

There have been no material changes in our future contractual obligations during the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the disclosure in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

On March 15, 2012, we filed a shelf registration with the SEC under which we may offer and sell up to $100.0 million of our securities, assuming we continue to meet the SEC’s eligibility requirements for primary offerings on Form S-3. Subsequently, affiliates of Sigma-Tau sold approximately 6.3 million shares for an aggregate price of approximately $33.1 million under this registration statement, and we have approximately $66.9 million available for future use.

In August 2013, our Board of Directors approved an increase of $10.0 million to the Company’s stock repurchase program, bringing the total authorized since the program’s inception in October 2011 to $50.5 million and the Board of Directors extended the program through December 31, 2014. Under this program, we repurchased and retired 502,400 shares at a cost of $2.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 bringing the total repurchases since the program’s inception to approximately 6.0 million shares at a cost of $30.8 million through June 30, 2013. We consider several factors in determining when to make share repurchases including, among other things, our cash needs, the availability of funding and the market price of our stock. We expect that cash provided by future operating activities, as well as available cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, will be the sources of funding for our share repurchase program.

In August 2012, our subsidiary, NovaMed entered into a loan agreement with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co. Ltd to borrow up to 12.5 million renminbi (approximately $2.0 million as of June 30, 2013). As of June 30, 2013, there were 12.5 million renminbi ($2.0 million) in borrowings under the loan agreement. The loan agreement is secured by a $2.3 million letter of credit. We are required to maintain $2.3 million of cash in a restricted bank account to secure the letter of credit. The loan agreement bears interest on borrowed funds at 7.5% and expires on August 29, 2013. Any amounts borrowed must be repaid by the expiration date. We anticipate the full repayment of this loan by August 29, 2013, and we intend to enter into a new facility later this year.

In May 2013, as part of our binding term sheet with Zensun, we agreed to enter into a $12.0 million loan facility to Zensun. We anticipate finalization of the licensing agreement with Zensun in the next quarter and we anticipate the $12.0 million loan will be either partially or fully funded later this year.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and investments and ongoing revenue generating business operations will be sufficient to support our current operating plan for at least the next 12 months. We have no current commitments to offer and sell any securities that may be offered or sold pursuant to our registration statement. To the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, may subject us to restrictive covenants and significant interest costs. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, we would be required to relinquish some rights to our technologies, product candidates or marketing territories. Additional financing or collaboration and licensing arrangements may not be available when needed either at all or, on favorable terms.

27

We intend to continue to explore alternatives for financing to provide additional flexibility in managing our operations, in-licensing new products, particularly for China, and potential acquisitions, as may be required. The unavailability or the inopportune timing of any financing could prevent or delay our long-term product development and commercialization programs, either of which could hurt our business. We cannot assure you that funds from financings, if any, will be sufficient to in-license additional products. The need, timing and amount of any such financing would depend upon numerous factors, including the status of the pending regulatory investigations and pending litigations, the level and price of our products, the timing and amount of manufacturing costs related to our products, the availability of complementary products, technologies and businesses, the initiation and continuation of preclinical and clinical trials and testing, the timing of regulatory approvals, developments in relationships with existing or future collaborative parties, the status of competitive products, and various alternatives for financing. We have not determined the timing or structure of any transaction.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Our revenue recognition policy is as follows.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or delivery has occurred, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

Product Revenue. We recognize product revenue from selling ZADAXIN product at the time of delivery. Sales of ZADAXIN to Sinopharm and its affiliates are recognized at time of shipment when title to the product is transferred to them. We also earn product revenue from purchasing medical products from pharmaceutical companies and selling them directly to importers or distributors. Sales of Pfizer products, from the date of the acquisition of NovaMed into October 2012, were based on the “sell-through” method as our distribution arrangement for these products allowed for payment terms dependent on when the distributor sold the product. We did not maintain information on the timing of “sell-through” of the Pfizer products by the distributor through this period, therefore we applied the cash receipts approach for the application of the “sell-through” method as it was the most reliable information available. Accordingly, during this period of time, revenue for sales of the Pfizer products was recognized upon receipt of cash from the distributor. We amended the agreement on October 21, 2012, which amendment removed any contingent payment terms. Prior to the amendment, the agreement allowed for delayed payment based on the timing of sales from the distributor to the next tier customer. The amendment changed the payment terms to 60 days, thus ensuring that the distributor could not withhold payment until after the distributor received payment upon sale of product to its next tier customer. The combination of the revised payment terms, together with all of the other contractual restrictions on the distributor (e.g., no return rights or other terms that may raise question as to whether or not they had taken title and assumed “risk of loss”), permitted revenue to be recognized on a “sell-in” basis upon the amendment. Therefore, from October 21, 2012 onward, we used the “sell-in” method for recognition of related revenue. All other product sales are also recognized on the “sell-in” method, or when the medical products have been delivered to the importers or distributors.

Promotion Services Revenue. We recognize promotion services revenue after designated medical products are delivered to the distributors as specified in the promotion services contract, which marks the period when marketing and promotion services have been rendered, and the revenue recognition criteria are met. In certain arrangements, we are required to return or refund a portion of promotion services fees received during interim periods from pharmaceutical customers if defined annual sales targets are not achieved. Under our agreements with these customers, if the agreement is terminated, and provided such targets have been met on a “pro rata” basis at the date of contract termination, we are entitled to retain the amounts paid. Due to these contractual provisions, we recognize revenue during interim periods without reduction for amounts subject to refund based on Method 2 of Accounting Standards Codification 605-20-S99-1, “Accounting for Management Fees Based on a Formula.” The amount of revenue recognized during the three- and six-month periods under this method that is potentially subject to refund is $1.7 million and $3.9 million, respectively. If we achieve the defined annual sales targets, these amounts will not be refunded.

28

For a discussion of the Company’s other significant accounting policies, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies, estimates and judgments during the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the disclosures in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes in our market risk during the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the disclosure in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is disclosed below.

Changes in Internal Controls

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we identified deficiencies in the design and operating effectiveness of controls primarily associated with the timing of revenue recognition for our Pfizer products and product returns reserves related to our Aggrastat product line, the override of certain controls in the financial statement close process related to our NovaMed subsidiary, and the corporate monitoring thereof. We concluded that the aggregation of these deficiencies is a material weakness.

We discussed these matters with our independent registered public accounting firm and our Audit Committee. Further, with the oversight of management and our audit committee, we have implemented, and are continuing to monitor the effectiveness of, additional controls to address these deficiencies. In the fourth quarter of 2012, we implemented additional controls related to our revenue recognition and product return reserve processes to strengthen our controls. We also re-evaluated the operation of our controls at our NovaMed subsidiary and made adjustments to strengthen these controls, including the recent hiring of our Chief Financial Officer, China Operations who joined the Company in the third quarter of 2012. We terminated personnel who were involved in the override of certain controls in the financial statement close process at our NovaMed subsidiary that resulted in the material weakness. We also hired a Chief Executive Officer, China operations who began April 1, 2013. Our remediation activities are not complete and we continue to seek ways to strengthen the operation of our controls at our NovaMed subsidiary, and our corporate monitoring thereof, and we may need to continue effective operation of these controls for one or more quarters before we can conclude that the material weakness has been corrected.

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in any control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. We are continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations and of our internal controls. This results in refinements to processes throughout our organization.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The SEC and the DOJ are each conducting formal investigations of us regarding a range of matters including the possibility of violations of the FCPA. We will continue to cooperate fully with the SEC and DOJ in the conduct of their investigations.

In response to these matters, our Board of Directors appointed a Special Committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) to oversee our response to the government inquiry. Based on an initial review, the Special Committee decided to undertake an independent investigation as to matters reflected in and arising from the SEC and DOJ investigations including, but not limited to, certain sales and marketing matters in China, in order to evaluate whether any violation of the FCPA or other laws occurred.

During the investigation, the Special Committee instructed management to (i) evaluate and to expand the Company’s training of employees regarding understanding and compliance with laws including the FCPA and other anti-bribery laws and regulations, (ii) evaluate existing compliance and anti-bribery policies and guidelines and to prepare new, more detailed policies and guidelines for implementation after review by our Board of Directors and/or committees of the Board of Directors, (iii) implement a pre-approval policy for certain expenses including payments for, or reimbursement of, travel and entertainment expenses, and sponsorships of certain third party events, and (iv) hire a Vice President of Compliance and Internal Audit to monitor and enforce compliance with our policies.

The Special Committee substantially concluded its investigation of those matters and on May 4 and 5, 2011 reported its findings and recommendations to the Board of Directors. The Special Committee has also reported those findings to the SEC and DOJ, and the Special Committee and the Company have continued to cooperate with the on-going SEC and DOJ investigations.

In the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2012, filed with the SEC on November 9, 2012, the Company disclosed, among other things, a non-cash impairment loss to fully write down the value of intangible assets recorded as part of the NovaMed acquisition; a remeasurement of the valuation of the contingent consideration expense recorded as part of the NovaMed acquisition; a significant increase in ZADAXIN channel inventory levels; and internal control issues primarily within the NovaMed organization that was concluded to represent a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. Following our disclosure of these items, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC requesting documents related to these and various other matters regarding the NovaMed acquisition and the Company’s operations in China. After review of the subpoena, and in order to respond to inquiries from the DOJ and SEC and to determine if any wrong-doing occurred, the Audit Committee determined to undertake an independent investigation as to additional matters, including but not limited to our acquisition of NovaMed and FCPA matters, including certain sales and marketing expenses.

We are unable to predict what consequences that any investigation by any regulatory agency or by our Audit Committee may have on us. Our cooperation with these investigations has resulted in substantial legal and accounting expenses, has diverted management’s attention from other business concerns and could harm our business. The ongoing investigations and any other regulatory investigations that might be initiated in the future, will result in similar substantial expenses, management diversion and harm to our business. If we fail to comply with regulations or to carry out controls in our Chinese or other foreign operations in a manner that satisfies all applicable laws, our business would be harmed. Any civil or criminal action commenced against us by a regulatory agency could result in administrative orders against us, the imposition of significant penalties and/or fines against us, and/or the imposition of civil or criminal sanctions against certain of our officers, directors and/or employees. The investigations, results of the investigations or remedial actions we have taken or may take, if any, as a result of such investigations, may adversely affect our business in China. If we are subject to adverse findings resulting from the SEC and DOJ investigations, or from our own independent investigation, we could be required to pay damages or penalties or have other remedies imposed upon us. In addition, we will incur additional expenses related to remedial measures we are undertaking, and could incur fines or other penalties. The period of time necessary to resolve the investigations by the DOJ and the SEC is uncertain, and these matters are requiring significant management, Board of Directors and financial resources which could otherwise be devoted to the operation of our business.

NovaMed is a party to a Distribution and Supply Agreement with MEDA. Following our acquisition of NovaMed, NovaMed continued to perform this agreement; however, MEDA claimed it had a right to terminate the agreement under a change of control provision. NovaMed does not believe that MEDA had a right of termination under the agreement. NovaMed and MEDA were in negotiations since the acquisition regarding potential amendments to the agreement that would resolve the disagreement. However no resolution was reached. MEDA notified NovaMed that the termination was effective as of May 2011, however as provided in the agreement, disputes, including disputes regarding termination must be resolved in binding arbitration. We do not expect any significant revenues from this agreement until 2014. NovaMed filed an application for binding arbitration with the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (“CIETAC”) on July 26, 2012. On October 10, 2012, MEDA filed an initial response and counterclaim with CIETAC claiming MEDA’s termination was valid and demanding the transfer of certain information and rights, as well as demanding the award of damages, including attorneys’ fees in an unspecified amount. On April 16, 2013, MEDA filed a further response stating their claims and facts in support of their initial response and counterclaim. A hearing on the merits of the matter is scheduled to be held before the CIETAC arbitration panel from August 20 through August 22, 2013 in Shanghai. NovaMed continues to perform its obligations under the agreement pending resolution of the dispute, and has notified MEDA that the dispute has been submitted to arbitration. We cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.

On October 16, 2012, we made a claim against the former stockholders of NovaMed pursuant to the acquisition agreement relating to our acquisition of NovaMed. As a result of our claim, approximately $1.4 million in cash held in escrow and 622,363 shares of our common stock held in escrow were not released to the former NovaMed stockholders pending the outcome of our claim. The claim related to damages we incurred as a result of various matters, including in particular the understatement of product return reserves for Aggrastat product in the balance sheet of NovaMed at the date of the acquisition, and related expenses and damages. On July 8, 2013, the Company and the representatives of the former stockholders of NovaMed entered into a Confidential “Escrow Settlement Agreement” pursuant to which the Company will retain approximately $0.8 million in cash and 342,300 shares of its common stock, representing 55% of the remaining cash and shares held in escrow.

On March 11, 2013, Adam Crum filed a derivative lawsuit, purportedly in the name of SciClone, against Friedhelm Blobel, Gary Titus, Jon Saxe, Peter Barrett, Richard Hawkins, Gregg Lapointe and Ira Lawrence in California Superior Court, San Mateo County, captioned Crum v. Blobel, et al, Case No. CIV520331. The lawsuit alleges, based on the restatement resulting from the timing of revenue recognition for certain products sold by the Company’s subsidiary NovaMed, that the Board of Directors and management breached their fiduciary duties to the Company by not exercising oversight in such a way that they allowed the Company to file financial statements that were materially inaccurate. Plaintiff asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control and mismanagement. Plaintiff seeks, among other things, injunctive relief, disgorgement, undisclosed damages and attorneys’ fees and costs. Our management believes that the claims lack merit and will vigorously defend against them.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Consider these risks and uncertainties before investing in our common stock. We have marked with an asterisk (*) those risk factors below that reflect substantive changes from the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2013.

Our stock price may be volatile, and an investment in our stock could suffer a decline in value. *

Although we reported net income of $2.2 million and $20.9 million, for the six-months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, we reported a net loss of $2.0 million for the three-months ended June 30, 2013. In addition, we have experienced significant operating losses in the past, and as of June 30, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $135 million. If our operating expenses were to increase or if we were not able to increase or sustain revenue, we may not achieve profitability over the next 12 months.

The market price of our common stock has experienced, and may continue to experience, substantial volatility due to many factors, some of which we have no control over, including:

• developments related to the pending SEC and DOJ investigations, our efforts to cooperate with the investigations and events related to pending litigation;

• government regulatory action affecting our Company or our drug products or our competitors’ drug products in China, the US and other foreign countries, including the effect of government initiatives in China, particularly actions intended to reduce pharmaceutical prices such as the reduction in the governmentally permitted maximum listed price for our products and increased oversight of the health care market and pharmaceutical industry;

31

• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results some of which may result from licensing or acquisition-related expenses including up-front fees, milestone payments and, and periodic impairment charges that have and may result from the goodwill and intangible assets recorded in the acquisition;

• progress and results of clinical trials and the regulatory approval process in Europe and in China;

• our ability to manage the risks associated with our acquisition of NovaMed;

• timing and achievement of our corporate objectives;

• charges related to expired inventory or bad debt;

• terminations of, or changes in our agreements or relationships with collaborative partners;

• announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;

• announcement and completion of corporate acquisition, merger, licensing or marketing arrangements, or sales of assets;

• developments or disputes concerning patent or proprietary rights;

• changes in the composition of our management team or board of directors;

• changes in company assessments or financial estimates by securities analysts;

• changes in assessments of our internal control over financial reporting;

• general stock market conditions and fluctuations for the emerging growth and pharmaceutical market sectors;

• unanticipated increases in our G&A expense due to legal and accounting expenses, including expenses relating to the governmental investigations, our disputes with MEDA, and arising out of matters relating to any additional or uncorrected control deficiency or related matters;

• economic and political conditions in the US or abroad particularly in China; and

• broad financial market fluctuations in the US, Europe or Asia.

Our acquisition of NovaMed involves a number of risks. Although we believe we have substantially completed the integration there are some challenges that still could affect us and we have not realized all the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. We may acquire other companies or products that present similar risks.

We believe we have substantially completed the integration of our NovaMed acquisition and the two companies’ operations and personnel and have begun to utilize common business, information and communication systems, operating procedures, financial controls and human resources practices. We have experienced a number of challenges in the process of integration which have had, and could have further adverse affects on our business. These challenges include:

• diversion of management’s attention from normal daily operations of the business which have and could continue to adversely affect ongoing operations, including matters relating to the restatement of our financial results and material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting identified in the third and fourth quarters of 2012;

• retaining key employees of both organizations, including recently announced executive departures and potential additional turnover;

• managing the acquisition and continuing operations in both organizations to successfully achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition;

• preserving important relationships of both SciClone and NovaMed, including NovaMed’s contractual relationships with pharmaceutical partners;

• costs and delays in implementing common systems and procedures;

• consolidating and rationalizing information technology and administrative infrastructures;

32

• the potential for further disputes or litigation related to the acquisition by us or by the former NovaMed stockholders, and the uncertainty as to the results of such dispute or any further dispute;

• the effectiveness of our efforts to improve the performance of NovaMed, including our effort to negotiate renewals of agreements with third parties and to improve the financial terms for agreements relating to promotional service revenues;

• implementing procedures, policies and processes related to FCPA compliance; and

• integrating and documenting processes and controls in conformance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which were not applicable to NovaMed prior to the acquisition.

We may enter into other acquisition transactions in the future which could present similar risks and may also cause us to:

• issue common stock that would dilute our current shareholders’ percentage ownership;

• assume liabilities, some of which may be unknown at the time of such acquisitions;

• record goodwill and intangible assets that have been and will be subject to impairment testing and potential periodic impairment charges;

• incur amortization expenses related to certain intangible assets; and

• incur large and immediate write-offs of in-process research and development costs; or become subject to litigation.

Any one or all of these factors, many of which are outside of our control, may increase operating costs or lower anticipated financial performance following the NovaMed acquisition, or following any future acquisition. In addition, the combined company may lose customers, distributors, suppliers, manufacturers, partners and employees. Any diversion of management’s attention to address these factors and any difficulties associated with the acquisition of NovaMed, or of companies or products we may acquire in the future could have a material adverse effect on the operating results of the company and on the value of our common stock, and could result in our not achieving the anticipated synergies and benefits of the acquisition underlying the two companies’ reasons for the merger. Failure to achieve our objectives could have a material adverse effect on the business and operating results of the company.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we determined that the carrying value of our intangible assets related to the promotion and distribution contract rights we acquired as part of the acquisition of NovaMed were no longer recoverable. As a result, we recognized a non-cash impairment loss of approximately $42.7 million, which adversely affected our financial results and could adversely affect the market value of our common stock. If the value of our goodwill asset becomes impaired, we may be required to incur further material impairment charges.

Our revenue will continue to be substantially dependent on our sale of ZADAXIN in China. The China government recently imposed price restrictions on ZADAXIN, Aggrastat and several of our oncology products. If we experience difficulties in our sales efforts as a result, our operating results and financial condition will be harmed. *

Our product revenue is highly dependent on the sale of ZADAXIN in China. As a result of additional product sales resulting from the NovaMed acquisition in 2011, we expect that the percentage of our revenues that come from the sale of ZADAXIN in China will decline significantly. However, we anticipate that sales of ZADAXIN will continue to be a majority of our revenue for at least the next two years. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, approximately 96% of our ZADAXIN sales were to customers in China. Sales of ZADAXIN in China may be limited due to the low average personal income, lack of patient cost reimbursement, poorly developed infrastructure and competition from other products, including generics. ZADAXIN sales growth in recent years has benefited from the rapidly growing Chinese economy and growing personal disposable income. Sales of ZADAXIN in China could be adversely affected by a slowing or downturn of the Chinese economy and from the recent and future decisions of the National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) and provincial agencies pricing reform.

33

In China, ZADAXIN is approved for the treatment of hepatitis B virus (“HBV”) and as a vaccine adjuvant. We face competition from pharmaceutical companies who are aggressively marketing competing products for the treatment of HBV and for other indications where we believe ZADAXIN may be used on an off-label basis. In addition, several local companies are selling lower-priced, locally manufactured generic thymalfasin, which is a competitive product and is selling in substantial and increasing quantities. While generic products outsell ZADAXIN in unit volumes, we have been able to maintain a pricing advantage through the reputation of our imported, branded product. We believe such competition will continue with added new local manufacturers of generic thymalfasin and there could be a negative impact on the price and the volume of ZADAXIN sold in China, which would harm our business. Our efforts to in-license or acquire other pharmaceutical products for marketing in China and other markets may be unsuccessful or even if successful may not have a meaningful effect on our dependence on ZADAXIN sales in those markets.

Sales of ZADAXIN may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter due to financing limitations on importers, changes in inventory levels at our customers, and surges in sales and inventories due to epidemics. Importers and distributors of ZADAXIN borrow funds in China from banks to purchase, hold and distribute ZADAXIN. Substantial increases in restrictions on fund availability and/or increases in borrowing costs could limit the ability of our importers and distributors to finance their import and distribution process. Further, our customers tend to purchase large orders, and inventory levels may fluctuate significantly as a result, or as a result of changes in the distribution channel, potentially affecting quarterly periodic results.

During the third quarter of 2012, we estimate that there was a substantial increase in ZADAXIN channel inventory levels and we believe that our sales to our customers exceeded the pace at which our customers were able to sell ZADAXIN through to other parties, primarily hospital pharmacies. As a result, ZADAXIN revenues were lower in the first half of 2013, compared to the comparable period in 2012. We have revised and we are implementing changes in our strategy for ZADAXIN market penetration and we continue to believe that we will grow demand for ZADAXIN through increased penetration in the market, however we may not be successful or we may experience future fluctuations in channel inventory either of which could adversely affect our future ZADAXIN revenue.

We could experience fluctuations in channel inventory due to actual or expected epidemics. For example, during the second quarter of 2009, we experienced a strong upsurge in ZADAXIN sales which we believe was attributable both to the increasing penetration of ZADAXIN within the Chinese market, as well as concerns in China from the H1N1 influenza virus. If distributors and hospitals that purchase ZADAXIN stockpile more ZADAXIN than needed for current use, our subsequent sales of ZADAXIN may suffer as distributors and hospitals use ZADAXIN already in their inventory before purchasing additional product from us. This could lead to uneven future revenue results for ZADAXIN and in turn materially impact our cash flow and business condition.

The Chinese government is increasing its efforts to reduce overall health care costs, including pricing controls on pharmaceutical products. Individual provinces in China and, in some cases, individual hospitals can and have established pricing requirements for a product to be included on formulary lists. In some cases, these prices have been significantly lower than our distributors have been selling ZADAXIN, in which case we have been removed from formulary lists, which consequently has reduced sales to certain hospitals and could adversely affect our future sales. The price for pharmaceutical products is regulated in China both at the national and at the provincial level. The process and timing for price restrictions is unpredictable. In addition, we are aware that ZADAXIN may be used on an off-label basis, and the Chinese government’s pricing, reimbursement or other actions might reduce such uses.

In November 2009, thymalfasin, the generic chemical name for our pharmaceutical product ZADAXIN, was included as a Category B product in the NRDL and pricing for ZADAXIN on the NRDL was recently reviewed by the authorities. As a result of the China government’s review of pharmaceutical prices once a product has been included in the Reimbursement Drug List (“RDL”), the national reimbursement retail list price of ZADAXIN in China (i.e., the price at the hospital pharmacy level) was reduced by approximately 18% effective October 8, 2012. Sinopharm, our primary importer of ZADAXIN into China agreed to take a larger share of the impact of this price reduction in exchange for certain exclusive importation rights into China. As a result, we anticipated that the actual impact on SciClone of this price reduction would be a decrease of less than 5% in our sales price of ZADAXIN to Sinopharm. Since the date the terms of our new agreement with Sinopharm went into effect, the average impact on our sales price per unit has been a decrease of approximately 3%. As Sinopharm is now our exclusive importer of ZADAXIN into China, we have not made any subsequent sales of ZADAXIN to other importers. In addition, the NDRC price of Aggrastat, as well as several of our oncology products exclusively promoted in China for Pfizer and Baxter were reduced ranging from 10 to 20%.

These pricing regulations, as well as regulation of the importation of pharmaceutical products have reduced and may further reduce prices for ZADAXIN or our other products to levels significantly below those that would prevail in an unregulated market, limit the volume of product which may be imported and sold or place high import duties on the product, any of which may limit the growth of our revenues or cause them to decline.

Our revenue will continue to be substantially dependent on our maintaining regulatory licenses and compliance with other regulations.

We have received regulatory approvals to import and market ZADAXIN in China and to manufacture ZADAXIN and export the product from Italy. In order to continue our sales to China, we need to maintain these approvals. Our license to import ZADAXIN into China needs to be renewed every five years and the next renewal is required in 2017. Although we were successful in obtaining a renewal in 2003, 2008 and 2012, there is no assurance that we will receive renewals in the future when applied for or that the renewals will not be conditioned or limited in ways that limit our ability to sell ZADAXIN to China.

Our licenses to manufacture and export ZADAXIN from Italy are dependent upon our continuing compliance with regulations in Italy. Our business would be adversely affected if we are not able to maintain these approvals. In order to sell ZADAXIN to the licensed importers in China, our manufacturers must 1) be approved by the Italian Ministry of Health (“AIFA”) and 2) be accepted by the State Food and Drug Administration of China (“SFDA”). Some manufacturing changes may require: 1) approval by AIFA in Italy and/or 2) be accepted by the SFDA, the Chinese equivalent of the FDA. In addition, we must obtain an Imported Drug License (“IDL”) from the SFDA permitting the importation of ZADAXIN into China in order to sell ZADAXIN to the licensed importers in China. ZADAXIN registration in Italy has been essential to the renewal of our IDL from the SFDA permitting the importation of ZADAXIN into China. Our ability to continue to renew our IDL from the SFDA permitting the importation of ZADAXIN into China could be adversely affected, if we were to fail to maintain ZADAXIN registration in Italy. The SFDA, AIFA and other regulatory agencies may, and have, changed their internal administrative rules in ways that may delay or complicate the regulatory approval process. Those changes are not always disclosed or known to us and we may experience unexpected delays or additional costs as a result of such changes. Our product has been distributed in Italy through BioFutura Pharma Srl (“BioFutura”), a subsidiary of Sigma-Tau Finanziaria, S.p.A. (“Sigma-Tau”). In August 2012, we entered into an agreement with BioFutura to continue to distribute ZADAXIN for SciClone in Italy. However, if we are not able to continue this arrangement, we will need to establish alternative distribution operations in Italy to ensure continuing compliance with regulations in Italy and maintain our Italian licenses.

Our ZADAXIN sales and operations in other parts of China and the world are subject to a number of risks and increasing regulations, including difficulties and delays in obtaining registrations, renewals of registrations, permits, pricing approvals and reimbursement, increasing regulation of product promotion and selling practices, unexpected changes in regulatory requirements and political instability.

We face risks related to the potential outcomes of the SEC and DOJ investigations regarding FCPA compliance and other matters, including potential penalties, substantial expense, the use of significant management time and attention, and changes in our marketing and sales practices that could affect our ability to generate revenue, any of which could adversely affect our business.

In August 2010, we received notices of investigations by US government agencies that relate to our operations in China including compliance with the FCPA and we subsequently initiated an internal investigation regarding these matters. In connection with the formal, non public SEC investigation, the SEC issued a subpoena to us requesting documents regarding a range of matters including but not limited to documents relating to potential payments or transfer of anything of value to regulators and government-owned entities in China; documents relating to bids or contracts with state or government-owned entities in China; documents relating to intermediary or local agent of the Company in China; documents regarding the Company’s ethics and anti-corruption policies, training, and audits; and documents relating to certain Company financial and other disclosures made by the Company. The DOJ is currently conducting an investigation of us in connection with compliance with the FCPA, as to which they have advised us that the DOJ has information about the Company’s practices suggesting possible violations. We have been cooperating with, and will continue to cooperate with, the investigations by and inquiries from the SEC and DOJ. In response to these matters, our Board of Directors appointed the Special Committee of independent directors to oversee our response to the government inquiry. The Special Committee conducted an independent investigation as to matters reflected in and arising from the SEC and DOJ investigations including, but not limited to, certain sales and marketing matters in China, in order to evaluate whether any violation of the FCPA or other laws occurred.

35

The Special Committee substantially concluded its investigation of those matters and on May 4 and 5, 2011 reported its findings and recommendations to the Board of Directors. The Special Committee reached a number of findings, including that we lacked appropriate internal controls to assure compliance with laws, including the FCPA, with respect to sales and marketing practices including payments for, or reimbursement of, third party gifts, travel and entertainment expenses, and sponsorships of certain conferences and symposia. The Special Committee identified evidence of sales and marketing activities that might constitute potential violations of the FCPA. We are undertaking certain remedial measures recommended by the Special Committee and adopted by our Board of Directors.

In the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2012, filed with the SEC on November 9, 2012, the Company disclosed, among other things, a non-cash impairment loss to fully write down the value of intangible assets recorded as part of the NovaMed acquisition; a remeasurement of the valuation of the contingent consideration expense recorded as part of the NovaMed acquisition; a significant increase in ZADAXIN channel inventory levels; and internal control issues primarily within the NovaMed organization that were concluded to represent a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. Following our disclosure of these items, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC requesting documents related to these and various other matters regarding the NovaMed acquisition and the Company’s operations in China. After review of the subpoena, and in order to respond to inquiries from the DOJ and SEC and to determine if any wrong-doing occurred, the Audit Committee determined to undertake an additional independent investigation as to additional matters, including, but not limited to, matters related to our acquisition of NovaMed and FCPA matters, and certain sales and marketing expenses.

We are unable to predict what consequences any investigation by any regulatory agency or by our Audit or Special Committees may have on us. Our cooperation with these investigations has resulted in substantial legal and accounting expenses, has diverted management’s attention from other business concerns and could harm our business. The ongoing investigations and any other regulatory investigations that might be initiated in the future will result in similar substantial expenses, management diversion and harm to our business. If we fail to comply with regulations or to carry out controls on our Chinese or other foreign operations in a manner that satisfies all applicable laws, our business would be harmed. Any civil or criminal action commenced against us by a regulatory agency could result in administrative orders against us, the imposition of significant penalties and/or fines against us, and/or the imposition of civil or criminal sanctions against certain of our officers, directors and/or employees. The investigations, results of the investigations, or remedial actions we have taken or may take as a result of such investigations may adversely affect our business in China. If we are subject to adverse findings resulting from the SEC and DOJ investigations, or from our own independent investigation, we could be required to pay damages or penalties or have other remedies imposed upon us. In addition, we will incur additional expenses related to remedial measures we are undertaking, and could incur fines or other penalties. The period of time necessary to resolve the investigations by the DOJ and the SEC is uncertain, and these matters are requiring significant management and financial resources which could otherwise be devoted to the operation of our business.

If we fail to achieve or maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to protect from fraudulent, illegal or unauthorized transactions. If we cannot establish effective controls and provide reliable financial reports, our business and operating results could be harmed. Moreover, as a US-based corporation doing business in China, these controls often need to satisfy the requirements of Chinese law as well as the requirements of US law which frequently differ in certain aspects. We have in the past discovered, and may in the future discover, areas of our internal controls that need improvement. For example, during the third quarter of 2012, our management determined that we had a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to the design and operation of our controls primarily associated with product returns reserves and the override of certain controls in the financial statement close process related to our NovaMed subsidiary. Furthermore, during the fourth quarter of 2012, our management determined that we had an additional indicator of the same material weakness related to the timing of revenue recognition for our Pfizer products and the override of related controls at our NovaMed subsidiary, and the corporate monitoring thereof. As of December 31, 2010, we also had two material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting related to our controls over (i) our implementation of our policy on compliance with laws and (ii) our accounting for income taxes. We continue to work on improvements to our internal controls and there can be no assurance that these or other material weaknesses will not occur in the future, or otherwise cause us to inaccurately report our financial statements. For example, our recently announced restatement of our financial statements for each of our first, second, and third quarters of 2012, and our financial statements for each of the second and third quarters of 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2011, were in part caused by our material weakness related to the design and operation of our controls discussed above. Any failure to implement and maintain controls over our financial reporting or difficulties encountered in the implementation of improvements in our controls, could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Any failure to improve our internal controls or to address identified weaknesses in the future, if they were to occur, could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative impact on the trading price of our stock.

36

Compliance with changing regulations concerning corporate governance and public disclosure has resulted in and may continue to result in additional expenses. Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, new SEC regulations and The NASDAQ Stock Market rules, are creating uncertainty for companies such as ours and costs are increasing as a result of this uncertainty and other factors. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure. As a result, we intend to invest all reasonably necessary resources to comply with evolving standards, and this investment has and may continue to result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.

We may not be able to effectively manage our employees and distribution network, and our reputation, business, prospects and brand may be materially and adversely affected by actions taken by our distributors and third party marketing firms.

Our company policies prohibit our employees from making improper payments to hospitals or otherwise engaging in improper activities to influence the procurement decisions of hospitals, and we take remedial actions, including termination, when employees do not adhere to our policies. However, we may not be able to effectively ensure that every employee complies at all times with our policies. The compensation of our sales and marketing personnel is partially linked to their sales performance. Although we have made numerous changes to ensure compliance with our policies and to attempt to avoid any violation of law, we cannot assure you that employees will not violate the anticorruption laws of China, the United States and other countries. Such violations could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, prospects and brand.

Furthermore, our employees in China have access to our facilities and internal systems and we have identified from time to time certain minor instances of improperly submitted expense reporting by our employees. Although these instances have involved insignificant sums, our employees may seek to create additional opportunities to engage in misappropriation or other employee malfeasance. If our controls and procedures to prevent such activities fail or are circumvented, our business would be negatively affected by, among other things, the related financial losses, diminished reputation and threat of litigation and regulatory inquiry and investigation.

We do not control, and therefore have limited ability to manage, the activities of third-parties who assist us in marketing and distributing our products. Our distributors or other third parties with whom we do business could take actions which violate the anti-corruption laws of China, the United States or other countries. Failure to adequately manage our employees, and third parties and, or their non-compliance with employment, distribution or marketing agreements, could harm our corporate image among hospitals and end users of our products and disrupt our sales, resulting in a failure to meet our sales goals. Furthermore, we could be liable for actions taken by our employees, distributors or third-party marketing or third party firms, including any violations of applicable law in connection with the marketing or sale of our products, including China’s anticorruption laws and the FCPA of the United States, or the FCPA. In particular, if our employees, distributors or third-party marketing firms make any payments that are forbidden under the FCPA, we could be subject to civil and criminal penalties imposed by the US government.

Recently, the Chinese government has increased its anti-corruption measures. In the pharmaceutical industry, corrupt practices include, among others, acceptance of kickbacks, bribes or other illegal gains or benefits by the hospitals and medical practitioners from pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors in connection with the prescription of certain pharmaceuticals. Our employees, affiliates, distributors or third-party marketing firms may violate these laws or otherwise engage in illegal practices with respect to their sales or marking of our products or other activities involving our products. If our employees, affiliates, distributors or third-party marketing firms violate these laws, we could be required to pay damages or fines, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, Chinese laws regarding what types of payments to promote or sell our products are impermissible are not always clear, and local regulatory authorities enforcing these laws are not always consistent. As a result, we, our employees, affiliates, our distributors or third-party marketing firms could make certain payments in connection with the promotion or sale of our products or other activities involving our products which at the time are considered by us or them to be legal but are later deemed impermissible by the Chinese government, or we may be asked to make payments by local government authorities that may not be permissible under China’s anticorruption laws or the FCPA. Furthermore, our brand and reputation, our sales activities or the price of our common stock could be adversely affected if we become the target of any negative publicity as a result of actions taken by our employees, affiliates, distributors or third-party marketing firms.

37

Our compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act may put us at a competitive disadvantage, while our failure to comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act may result in substantial penalties.

As a US reporting company, we are required to comply with the FCPA. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in practices in violation of the FCPA, we could suffer severe penalties. Non-US companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to the provisions of the FCPA. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time to time in mainland China. If our competitors engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in their business dealings, which would put us at a disadvantage.

Retaliation from terminated employees may damage our reputation or make claims that could subject us to further regulatory action.

From time to time we have terminated the employment of certain employees for performance related reasons, including, in particular, our policies intended to prevent corruption. Employees who are terminated may seek more favorable terms of separation by threatening to damage our reputation in the marketplace. Further, they may seek to retaliate against us by making so-called “whistleblower” claims under the provisions enacted by the Dodd-Frank Act that may entitle persons who report alleged wrong-doing to the SEC to cash rewards. We anticipate that these provisions will result in a significant increase in whistleblower claims across our industry, and dealing with such claims could generate significant expenses and take up significant management time, even for frivolous and non-meritorious claims. Any investigations of whistleblower claims may impose additional expense on us, may require the attention of senior management and members of the Board of Directors and may result in fines and/or reputational damage whether or not we are deemed to have violated any regulations. Furthermore, terminated employees may also seek to retaliate against us by making claims against us to other regulatory agencies, including local regulatory authorities. Inquiries by local regulatory agencies about such claims, even if frivolous and non-meritorious, could also generate significant expenses and take up significant management and Board of Director’s time.

We may incur unexpected charges relating to our operations. *

Although we have generally experienced minimal product returns and our customers have historically paid all invoiced amounts, we could incur future charges relating to inventory that expires or as a result of customer failures to pay invoiced amounts timely or in full. In particular we could experience a charge for inventory returns related to Aggrastat if our customers are unable to sell units of Aggrastat that are nearing their expiry dates, or for bad debt if a former distributor does not pay an outstanding receivable in full. Those or similar future events would have an adverse impact upon our operating results.

We are at risk of additional securities class action and derivative lawsuits.

Securities class action and derivative lawsuits are often filed against public companies following a decline in the market price of their securities. After our announcement regarding SEC and DOJ investigations in 2010, we and certain of our officers and directors were named as parties in purported stockholder class actions and derivative lawsuits. Those class action lawsuits were dismissed and we have settled those derivative lawsuits. Our stock price declined following the announcement of a restatement of our financial statements for fiscal 2011 and the first three quarters of fiscal 2012, and that our independent auditing firm had elected not to stand for reappointment for the 2013 fiscal year. Soon after that announcement, we and certain of our officers and directors were named as parties in a purported derivative lawsuit relating to the restatement. We may experience stock price volatility in the future, either related to announcements regarding the SEC and DOJ investigation, our own investigations related thereto or other matters. This risk is especially relevant for us because biotechnology companies have experienced greater than average stock price volatility in recent years. We may be named in additional litigation, which will require significant management time and attention and result in significant legal expenses and may result in an unfavorable outcome which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Such litigation could result in additional substantial costs and a diversion of management’s and the Board of Director’s attention and resources, which could harm our business.

38

We may not be able to successfully develop or commercialize our products. *

We have numerous products under development in China, some of which were acquired in the NovaMed acquisition and others were in-licensed by us. We have recently in-licensed two additional product candidates, Neucardin from Zensun and ProFlow from TLC, for each of which our future development expenses and milestone payments could be material.

Clinical trials are inherently risky and may reveal that our product candidates are ineffective or have unanticipated side effects and/or drug interactions that may significantly decrease the likelihood of regulatory approval. For example, in March 2012 we announced the discontinuation of our phase 2b clinical trial evaluating SCV-07 for the delayed onset of oral mucositis. This decision was based on the results of a pre-planned interim analysis that indicated that the trial would not meet the pre-specified efficacy endpoints, and we have no plans to proceed with further development of SCV-07 at this time.

The regulatory approval processes in the US, Europe and China are demanding, lengthy and expensive. We have committed significant resources, including capital and time, to develop and seek approval for products under development, and if we do not obtain approvals we are seeking, we may be unable to achieve any revenue from these products. All new drugs, including our product candidates, are subject to extensive and rigorous regulation by the FDA, SFDA and similar regulatory agencies. These regulations govern, among other things, the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, storage, pre-market approval, importation, advertising, promotion, sale and distribution of our products. These regulations may change from time to time and new regulations may be adopted.

Satisfaction of government regulations may take several years and the time needed to satisfy them varies substantially based on the type, complexity and novelty of the pharmaceutical product. As a result, government regulation may cause us to delay the introduction of, or prevent us from marketing, our existing or potential products for a considerable period of time and impose costly procedures upon our activities. We have experienced delays in the regulatory process and continue to experience delays, and there exists risk that we may not receive approval, including with the approval process for DC Bead or other in-licensed products. In addition, the Chinese government is increasing its efforts to reduce overall health care costs, including pricing controls on pharmaceutical products. We cannot determine what the potential government pricing constraints are likely to be for products in development in advance. Therefore, we may be required to abandon the development or commercialization of a product after significant effort and expense if we determine at any time that trends in government pricing constraints will make the commercialization of a product unprofitable.

To fully develop these products and other products we may acquire, substantial resources are required for extensive research, development, pre-clinical testing, clinical trials, and manufacturing scale-up and regulatory approval prior to the potential products being ready for sale. We cannot assure that our efforts will produce commercially viable products. We face significant technological risks inherent in developing these products. We may also abandon some or all of our proposed products before they become commercially viable. We are obligated to make a milestone payment upon regulatory approval of certain products under development. If any of our products, even if developed and approved, cannot be successfully commercialized in a timely manner, our business will be harmed and the price of our stock may decline.

Market acceptance of any product that is successfully developed and approved will depend on many factors, including our ability to convince prospective customers to use our products as an alternative to other treatments and therapies. In addition, doctors must opt to use treatments involving our products. If doctors elect to use a different course of treatment, demand for our drug products would be reduced. In addition, for certain products we may need to convince partners to manufacture or market our products. Failure to do any of the above will lead to an unfavorable outcome on the results of our operations.

39

Our success is dependent upon the success of our sales and marketing efforts in China, and we may experience difficulties in complying with regulations, slow collections or other matters that could adversely affect our revenue in China.

Following the acquisition of NovaMed, we have numerous products on the market in China in addition to ZADAXIN. Our future revenue growth depends to a great extent on increased sales of ZADAXIN to China and increased sales of the products promoted or marketed by NovaMed. If we fail to continue to successfully market ZADAXIN or NovaMed’s product portfolio, our revenue and operating results will be limited. If unexpected and serious adverse events are reported, or if expected efficacy results are not achieved, it would have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our sales are concentrated in China and we face risks relating to operating in China, including pricing and other regulations, slow payment cycles and exposure to fluctuations in the Chinese economy. *

The Chinese government is increasing its efforts to reduce overall health care costs, including pricing controls on pharmaceutical products. Individual provinces in China and, in some cases, individual hospitals can and have established pricing requirements for a product to be included on formulary lists. The Chinese government has recently imposed price restrictions on ZADAXIN, Aggrastat and various oncology products we promote. As a result of the China government’s review of pharmaceutical prices once a product has been included in the Reimbursement Drug List (“RDL”), the national reimbursement retail list price of ZADAXIN in China (i.e., the price at the hospital pharmacy level) was reduced by approximately 18% effective October 8, 2012. Sinopharm, our primary importer of ZADAXIN into China agreed to take a larger share of the impact of this price reduction in exchange for certain exclusive importation rights into China. As a result, we anticipated that the actual impact on SciClone of this price reduction would be a decrease of less than 5% in our sales price of ZADAXIN to Sinopharm. Since the date the terms of our new agreement with Sinopharm went into effect, the average impact on our sales price per unit has been a decrease of approximately 3%. As Sinopharm is now our exclusive importer of ZADAXIN into China, we have not made any subsequent sales of ZADAXIN to other importers.

Over the long term, we believe that the price reductions may positively affect our sales volumes and result in broader penetration into Tier 3 and Tier 2 cities in target geographies, potentially increasing our total sales revenues from these products. However, the process and timing for any price restrictions is unpredictable and further price reduction could be imposed that could adversely affect our business. Further, the successful sales and marketing of all of our products requires continuing compliance with other regulations in China relating to the import, manufacture, approval and distribution of products and if we or our partners are not able to obtain or maintain necessary licenses or other approvals, our operations would be adversely affected.

We experience other issues with managing sales operations in China including long payment cycles, potential difficulties in timely accounts receivable collection and, especially from significant customers, fluctuations in the timing and amount of orders and the adverse effect of any of these issues on our business could be increased due to the concentration of our business with a small number of distributors. Problems with collections from, or sales to, any one of those distributors could materially adversely affect our results. Operations in foreign countries including China also expose us to risks relating to difficulties in enforcing our proprietary rights, currency fluctuations and adverse or deteriorating economic conditions. If we experience problems with these matters, or if significant political, economic or regulatory changes occur, our results could be adversely affected. As of June 30, 2013, we have accounts receivable totaling approximately $4.1 million which are substantially delinquent and which we are actively trying to collect. The customers have a binding obligation to pay us, but we may have to pursue legal remedies, and there can be no assurance if we are not paid and we pursue legal action what the timing or result of such action would be.

Our operations throughout the world including China are potentially subject to the laws and regulations of the US including the FCPA, in addition to the laws and regulations of the other countries. Regulation in China of the activities in the pharmaceutical industry has increased and may continue to undergo significant and unanticipated changes. A number of companies have faced significant expenses or fines as a result of the increasing regulation of, and enforcement activity regarding, the pharmaceutical industry. The Chinese government has recently made arrests of pharmaceutical company employees for allegedly illegal sales and marketing activities. Recent or future arrests of sales personnel, doctors or others in the pharmaceutical industry, whether or not the individuals violated laws or regulations, could impact the operations and results of pharmaceutical companies in China, including our own. The Chinese government has also been investigating the costs to manufacture approximately 40 pharmaceutical products sold in China. While SciClone was not involved in either of these actions, these actions may be an indication of heightened Chinese government oversight of the pharmaceutical industry, and of multinational pharmaceutical companies in particular. Such activities could have long term implications for the pharmaceutical industry in China including increased pricing pressure and a heightened level of government oversight and investigations, either of which could adversely affect the industry as a whole or individual companies, including SciClone.

40

Currently all of our revenue is generated from customers located outside the US, and a substantial portion of our assets, including employees, are located outside the US. US income taxes and foreign withholding taxes have not been provided on undistributed earnings of non-US subsidiaries, because such earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested in the operations of those subsidiaries. The US government may propose initiatives that would substantially reduce our ability to defer US taxes including: repealing deferral of US taxation of foreign earnings, eliminating utilization or substantially reducing our ability to claim foreign tax credits, and eliminating various tax deductions until foreign earnings are repatriated to the US. If any of these proposals are constituted into legislation, they could increase our US income tax liability and as a result have a negative impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Our business strategy is dependent in part upon our agreements with third parties for the rights to develop and commercialize products, or promote products, particularly in China. If we fail to maintain such agreements, or if we fail to enter into additional agreements, our business will suffer. *

Our sales and marketing strategy in China depends significantly upon agreements with third parties, and potentially upon entering into additional agreements with third parties, or renegotiating agreements with third parties. Except for ZADAXIN, our rights to develop, market and sell our products in China, including the products recently licensed from Zensun and TLC and products currently promoted or sold by our subsidiary, NovaMed, are held by us under license, promotion, distribution or marketing agreements with third parties. These agreements for products on the market including Depakine, Stilnox, Tritace and Aggrastat, and products in the regulatory review process, including DC Bead and several of NovaMed’s products in clinical trials, are held under license, distribution or marketing agreements. In addition, our success in the future may be dependent upon entering into similar agreements with other parties and the renewal of any such agreements. The third parties to these agreements are generally not under an obligation to renew the agreements. If any of these agreements are terminated, or if they are not renewed, our ability to distribute, or develop, the products or product candidates could be terminated and our business could be affected. In addition, if any of such agreements acquired in our NovaMed acquisition are not renewed, we could incur a decline in sales revenues.

All of our products were originally obtained by us under licenses, promotion, distribution or similar third-party agreements. We do not conduct product discovery and our ability to bring new products to market is dependent upon our entering into additional acquisition, in-licensing, promotion or distribution agreements, particularly in China. The competition for attractive products is intense, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to negotiate in-license, promotion or distribution agreements for additional products in the future on acceptable terms, if at all.

In January 2013, our promotion agreement with Sanofi was renewed until December 31, 2013 under the same terms as previously negotiated. Revenues for 2011 and 2012 related to our agreement with Sanofi were approximately $19.7 million and $30.8 million, respectively. We are actively negotiating the renewal or extension of this agreement. In June 2013, we renewed our promotion agreement with Baxter for a 5 year term, through December 2017. Our other significant promotion agreement with Pfizer will be expiring August 31, 2013 unless renewed, extended or renegotiated. Revenues for 2011 and 2012 related to our agreement with Pfizer were approximately $5.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively. We are actively negotiating the renewal or extension of this agreement. We continue to assess the financial performance of the products we promote under our agreements and their overall value within our entire portfolio of products. As part of this process, we have recently discontinued promotion of the oncology products Adriamycin and Daunoblastina for Pfizer, and the primary care product, Perenan, for Sanofi. Revenues related to these products were approximately $2.7 million and $1.5 million in 2011 and 2012, respectively. Over time, we anticipate the product mix that we promote will change which may affect our revenues and profitability in the future. Terminations or failures to renew these or any other agreement as to some or all of the products covered by the agreement could result in a decline in revenue and to other costs including restructuring charges if a resulting revenue decline required us to reduce costs.

41

We may lose market share or otherwise fail to compete effectively in the intensely competitive pharmaceutical industry.

Competition in the pharmaceutical industry in China is intense, and we believe that competition will increase. Our success depends on our ability to compete in this industry, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete with our competitors. Increased competitive pressure could lead to intensified price-based competition resulting in lower prices and margins, which would hurt our operating results. We cannot assure you that we will compete successfully against our competitors or that our competitors, or potential competitors, will not develop drugs or other treatments for our targeted indications that will be superior to ours.

We depend on sales to China, and global conditions could negatively affect our operating results or limit our ability to expand our operations in and outside of China. Changes in China’s political, social, regulatory and economic environment may affect our financial performance.

Our business is concentrated in China. Heightened tensions resulting from the current geopolitical conditions in the Middle East, North Korea and elsewhere could worsen, causing disruptions in foreign trade, which would harm our sales. In particular, our commercial product is manufactured in Europe and distributed by us from our operations in Hong Kong. Any disruption of our supply and distribution activities due to geopolitical conditions could decrease our sales and harm our operating results.

With respect to China, our financial performance may be affected by changes in China’s political, social, regulatory and economic environment. The role of the Chinese central and local governments in the Chinese economy is significant. Chinese policies toward economic liberalization, and laws and policies affecting foreign companies, currency exchange rates and other matters could change, resulting in greater restrictions on our ability to do business in China. Any imposition of surcharges or any increase in Chinese tax rates could hurt our operating results. The Chinese government could revoke, terminate or suspend our license for national security and similar reasons without compensation to us. If the government of China were to take any of these actions, we would be prevented from conducting all or part of our business. Any failure on our part to comply with governmental regulations could result in the loss of our ability to market our products in China.

Because of China’s tiered method of importing and distributing finished pharmaceutical products, our quarterly results may vary substantially from one period to the next; we are dependent upon Sinopharm as the exclusive importer of ZADAXIN.

Imported products in China, including ZADAXIN and NovaMed’s imported products, are distributed through a tiered method to import and distribute finished pharmaceutical products. Promoted products are typically sold from our partner companies within China to the primary distributor with the following distribution being the same for imported as well as promoted products. At each port of entry, and prior to moving the product forward to the distributors, government-licensed importing agents must process and evaluate each imported product shipment to determine whether it satisfies China’s quality assurance requirements. In order to efficiently manage this process, the importing agents typically place large, and therefore relatively few, orders within an annual period. Therefore, sales to an importing agent can vary substantially from quarter to quarter depending on the size and timing of the orders, which has in the past and may in the future cause our quarterly results to fluctuate. We rely on a limited number of importers, in any given quarter, to supply our products and most of our ZADAXIN sales have been through three importers. Our receivables from those importers are material, and if we were unable to collect receivables from those importers or any other importer, our business and cash-flow would be adversely affected.

Generally, our importers are not obligated to place purchase orders for our product, and if they determined for any reason not to place purchase orders, we would need to seek alternative licensed importers, which could cause fluctuations in our revenue. As a result of our recent agreement granting certain exclusive importation rights to Sinopharm for ZADAXIN, we are dependent upon Sinopharm’s performance of its obligations under that agreement. We have a long-standing and we believe excellent relationship with Sinopharm, however, if Sinopharm was unable to adequately perform its obligations under, or breached, the agreement our business would be adversely affected.

The existence of counterfeit pharmaceutical products in China’s pharmaceutical retail market may damage our brand and reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Certain medicine products distributed or sold in China’s pharmaceutical retail market, including those appearing to be our products, may be counterfeit. Counterfeit products are products sold under the same or very similar brand names and/or have a similar appearance to genuine products. Counterfeit products, including counterfeit pharmaceutical products, are a significant problem in China. Such products divert sales from genuine products, often are of lower cost, often are of lower quality (having different ingredients or formulations, for example), and have the potential to damage the reputation for quality and effectiveness of the genuine product. The counterfeit pharmaceutical product regulation control and enforcement system in China is not able to completely eliminate production and sale of counterfeit pharmaceutical products. Any sale of counterfeit products resulting in adverse side effects to consumers may subject us to negative publicity and expenses. It could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We may be subject to currency exchange rate fluctuations, which could adversely affect our financial performance.

A majority of our product sales are denominated in US dollars and a significant portion of our sales and expenses are denominated in renminbi. Fluctuation in the US dollar exchange rate with local currency directly affects the customer’s cost for our product. In particular, a stronger US dollar vis-à-vis the local currency would tend to have an adverse effect on sales and potentially on collection of accounts receivable. China currently maintains the value of the renminbi in a narrow currency trading band that may or may not fluctuate based upon government policy. Depending on market conditions and the state of the Chinese economy, China has intervened in the foreign exchange market in the past to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the renminbi exchange rate, and it could make future adjustments, including moving to a managed float system, with opportunistic interventions. This reserve diversification may negatively impact the US dollar and US interest rates. A trend to a stronger US dollar would erode margins earned by our Chinese importers and prompt them to ask us to lower our prices. A weaker US dollar would increase our in-country China operating expenses, and with the addition of NovaMed, our China operating expenses have increased. We are subject to currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of expenses incurred by our foreign operations. In particular, one of our supply arrangements under which we purchase finished products is denominated in euros and costs of our operations in China are paid in local currency. Consequently, changes in exchange rates could unpredictably and adversely affect our operating results and could result in exchange losses. To date, we have not hedged against the risks associated with fluctuations in exchange rates and, therefore, exchange rate fluctuations could have a material adverse impact on our future operating results and stock price.

We cannot predict the safety profile of the use of ZADAXIN, Depakine, or other drugs we may develop or market when used in combination with other drugs.

Many of our prior trials involved the use of ZADAXIN in combination with other drugs. We cannot predict how ZADAXIN, Depakine, or other drugs we may develop or market will work with other drugs, including causing possible adverse side effects not directly attributable to the other drugs that could compromise the safety profile of ZADAXIN, Depakine, or other drugs we may develop or market when used in certain combination therapies.

If third-party reimbursement is not available or patients cannot otherwise pay for ZADAXIN, Depakine, or other drugs we may develop we may not be able to successfully market them.

Significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of therapeutic products, such as ZADAXIN and Depakine or other drugs we may develop. We cannot assure you that third-party insurance coverage and reimbursement will be available for therapeutic products we might develop. Although ZADAXIN receives some limited reimbursement in certain provinces in China, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain existing reimbursements or increase third-party payments for ZADAXIN or obtain third-party payments for other products which we sell or develop in China. The failure to obtain or maintain third-party reimbursement for our products would harm our business. Further, we cannot assure you that additional limitations will not be imposed in the future in the US or elsewhere on drug coverage and reimbursement due to proposed health care reforms. In many emerging markets where we have marketing rights to ZADAXIN, but where government resources and per capita income may be so low that our products will be prohibitively expensive, we may not be able to market our products on economically favorable terms, if at all.

Recent efforts by governmental and third-party payers to contain or reduce health care costs and the announcement of legislative proposals and reforms to implement government controls has caused us to reduce the prices at which we market our drugs in China, and additional reforms, if they were to occur, could cause us to further reduce our prices which could reduce our gross margins and may harm our business.

43

We rely on third parties who are our sole source suppliers for our clinical trial and commercial products and their inability to deliver products that meet our quality-control standards could delay or harm one or more important areas of our business including our sales, clinical trials or the regulatory approval process. *

We rely on third parties, who are subject to regulatory oversight, to supply our commercial products. Any deficiencies or shortages in supply of our commercial products would adversely affect our ability to realize our sales plans. For example, the manufacturing of the raw material and the processing to finished product of ZADAXIN is done in few batches in any given three-month period and any manufacturing errors have the potential to require a product recall. We currently have only one approved finished vial manufacturer and two approved active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) suppliers. If we experience a problem with the manufacturer or our suppliers our sales may suffer. We and NovaMed have each experienced difficulties with obtaining product from manufacturers in the past. During 2012, we have experienced limitations on supply of Depakine IV, Perenan, Methotrexate, and Rulide and the growth in the sales of those products has been affected. During 2011, we experienced manufacturing delays related to repairs for general, non-production-related facilities equipment at one of our API suppliers. During 2010, we experienced difficulties validating upgrades to equipment with one of our API manufacturers. Although we are taking steps to ensure that such problems do not continue, there is no assurance that we will either be successful in doing so with our current supplier or be able to timely and cost-effectively qualify new suppliers for this component. Manufacturing interruptions or failure or delay of product to meet quality assurance specifications could adversely affect shipments and recognition of sales of our products in any period and impair our relationships with customers and our competitive position and may increase the cost of material produced. In addition, each of the products that are marketed through our NovaMed subsidiary is manufactured by, or obtained from, a single source.

Our two API suppliers for ZADAXIN are both working on the development of a more efficient manufacturing process to increase the per batch manufacturing process scale in anticipation of growth in future commercial demand. There are technical and regulatory risks associated with the development of the new process that may be beyond our control. If the new process fails to allow for scale-up of API production while also providing API that meets regulatory specifications and/or shelf-life stability, or if the new manufacturing process approval is delayed or denied by regulatory authorities, the commercial supply of ZADAXIN could be limited as we would have to continue with the current scale of manufacturing with the current manufacturing process.

China has mandated a unique serialization barcode for the smallest unit carton of each pharmaceutical product intended for importation and commercial sale in China. We are required to have the serialization for ZADAXIN in effect by 2015. Implementation of the new unique barcode on each unit carton involves a long lead time including physical hardware and software changes to the only approved existing packaging line at our sole finished product packaging contract manufacturing site. There are technical and regulatory risks associated with the packaging line changes that may be beyond our control. If the packaging line changes and/or validation are delayed or if the packaging line change regulatory submission to the Italian regulatory authorities is not approved in a timely manner, the commercial supply of ZADAXIN could be limited or stopped completely until barcode serialization is successfully implemented at the contract manufacturer and subsequently approved by regulatory authorities in Italy, which could materially adversely affect our sales and operating results.

We also rely on third parties, who are subject to regulatory oversight, to supply drug product. For example, Bioalliance is the sole supplier of Loramyc. Any unanticipated deficiencies in this supplier, or the suppliers of our raw materials, and/or recall of the manufacturing lots could also impede commercialization of our products and impair our competitive position. In addition, any unanticipated deficiencies in suppliers used in our clinical trials could delay the trials or detract from the integrity of the trial data and its potential use in future regulatory filings. In addition, manufacturing interruptions or failure to comply with regulatory requirements by any of these suppliers could significantly delay clinical development of potential products and reduce third-party or clinical researcher interest and support of proposed trials.

If our thymalfasin API or ZADAXIN products are not shipped and stored at precision temperatures, the products could become damaged, which could negatively affect our sales and operating results.

Thymalfasin API and ZADAXIN are temperature sensitive products. SciClone relies on third party organizations to provide controlled temperature shipping logistics services from the point of ownership transfer from the API contract manufacturer to the point where thymalfasin API is converted to ZADAXIN drug product, and from the ZADAXIN drug product manufacturing site to our storage locations in Hong Kong and then to China. Although some temperature excursions are allowable and thymalfasin and ZADAXIN are relatively stable when exposed to temperatures higher than recommended, if any third party logistics or equipment provider fails to perform their required oversight duties with respect to temperature control or a shipment is delayed in transit for a prolonged period of time, the thymalfasin API or ZADAXIN drug product could become unsuitable for subsequent processing or commercial use. Although we have not experienced cold chain interruptions in the past and our distributor in China may maintain several months supply of our product, were our cold chain distribution or warehouse capability to be interrupted, our ability to timely deliver finished product to China could be adversely affected which in turn could materially adversely affect our sales and operating results.

44

We rely on third parties for development of our products and the inability of any of these parties to reliably, timely or cost-effectively provide us with their obligated services could materially harm the timing of bringing our products to market and accordingly adversely affect our business.

We rely on third parties, such as contract research organizations, medical institutions, clinical investigators, contract laboratories, and collaborative partners in the conduct of clinical trials for our product candidates. If these parties, whom we do not control, do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or regulatory obligations or meet expected deadlines or choose not to continue their relationship with us, if the third parties need to be replaced, or if the quality or accuracy of the data they obtain is compromised due to the failure to adhere to our clinical protocols or regulatory requirements or for other reasons, our pre-clinical or clinical activities may be extended, delayed, suspended or terminated, and we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for, or successfully commercialize our product candidates.

Commercialization of some of our products depends on collaborations with others. If our collaborators are not successful, or if we are unable to find future collaborators, we may not be able to properly develop and commercialize our products.

We depend in part on our distributors and business partners to develop or promote our drugs, and if they are not successful in their efforts or fail to do so, our business will suffer. For example, Biocompatibles is providing SciClone with product samples, clinical and product data, and the necessary supporting documents to obtain regulatory approval in China for DC Bead. We generally do not have control over the amount and timing of resources that our business partners devote to our collaborative efforts, and some have not always performed as or when expected. If they do not perform their obligations as we expect, particularly obligations regarding clinical trials, our development expenses would increase and the development or sale of our products could be limited or delayed, which could hurt our business and cause our stock price to decline. In addition, our relationships with these companies may not be successful. Disputes may arise with our collaborators, including disputes over ownership rights to intellectual property, know-how or technologies developed with our collaborators. We may not be able to negotiate similar additional arrangements in the future to develop and commercialize ZADAXIN or other products.

If we are unable to retain our key personnel, or are unable to attract and retain additional, highly skilled and experienced personnel, including the ability to expand our sales staff, our business will suffer. *

We are highly dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel because of the specialized, scientific and worldwide nature of our business. We are also dependent on our ability to appropriately staff these personnel in appropriate positions as our business fluctuates. Further, our efforts to in-license or acquire, develop and commercialize product candidates for China may require the addition of clinical and regulatory personnel and the expansion of, or changes in our sales and marketing operation. In addition, we assign numerous key responsibilities to a limited number of individuals, and we would experience difficulty in finding immediate replacements for any of them were any one of them to choose to leave employment with us. There is intense competition for qualified management, scientific, clinical, regulatory, and sales and marketing personnel in the pharmaceutical industry.

Our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer resigned from the Company on May 31, 2013 to pursue other opportunities. Our Vice President, Finance resigned from the Company on August 2, 2013 to pursue other opportunities. We hired a new Chief Financial Officer and a new Vice President, Finance and Controller in July 2013.

There is significant turnover in the industry, in China in particular, and we have also experienced turnover in our sales personnel and key employees. We may not be able to attract and retain the qualified personnel we need to grow and develop our business globally. In particular, if we are unable to retain key personnel from the acquisition of NovaMed, particularly sales and marketing personnel with expertise in the products they promote and regulatory personnel, our business may suffer and could result in our not achieving the anticipated benefits of the acquisition.

45

The former Chief Executive Officer and the former Chief Operating Officer of our China operations resigned in the fourth quarter of 2012 and we have also had departures in our senior sales personnel. We may experience other departures. In addition, we have terminated personnel for violations of our policies and procedures as well as for lack of performance. Our future success will depend in part on our retaining key personnel and on recruiting additional senior sales and other personnel in China. We are continuously recruiting executives and other level personnel to address departures and to expand and strengthen our China operations and hired a new Chief Executive Officer of SciClone’s China operations, who began on April 1, 2013. Conversely, if we need to reduce the size of a particular aspect of our business including if we have contracts that are not renewed or renegotiated for products we market or promote, we are also dependent on our ability to make such adjustments while retaining suitably skilled personnel. We have taken corrective measures based upon the findings of our Special Committee relating to its investigation of matters relating to the FCPA and have, and expect to continue to take corrective measures relating to managements’ evaluation of internal control over financial reporting which could have adverse effects on our business, including the loss of personnel, and changes in marketing, sales and educational practices or programs.

If we were unable to attract and retain qualified personnel as needed or promptly replace those employees who are critical to our sales, development and other operations, and in particular senior executives, our financial results and operations would be adversely affected. At this time, we do not maintain “key person” life insurance for any of our personnel.

We may need to obtain additional funding to support our long-term product development and commercialization programs. *

We believe our existing cash and investments and ongoing revenue generating business operations will be sufficient to support our current operating plan for at least the next 12 months. In November and May 2012, we announced that our Board of Directors has approved increases in our share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to a total of $40.5 million of its outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 2013, $9.9 million of the $40.5 million remained available under the repurchase program for future share repurchases. Subsequent to June 30, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of $10.0 million to our stock repurchase program, bringing the total authorized to $50.5 million and extended the program through December 31, 2014. Further, we may use cash to acquire additional product rights or for future acquisitions. Our ability to achieve and sustain operating profitability is dependent on numerous factors including our ability to achieve our goal of increasing sales of ZADAXIN, securing regulatory approval for DC Bead in China, and for our other products and products we acquired as a result of the NovaMed acquisition, the execution and successful completion of clinical trials in China, securing partnerships for those programs that lead to regulatory approvals in major pharmaceutical markets, and successfully continuing NovaMed’s sales and integrating NovaMed into our business. We cannot assure you that such funds from operating activities will be sufficient, or that we will attain profitable operations in future periods. In addition, we intend to develop other products and we may need additional funds in the future to support such development and to support future growth and achieve profitability. If we need to raise additional funds in the future and such funds are not available on reasonable terms, if at all, our commercialization efforts may be impeded, our revenues may be limited and our operating results may suffer.

We are subject to the risk of increased income taxes which could reduce our future operating income.

We have structured our operations in a manner designed to maximize income in countries where:

• tax incentives have been extended to encourage foreign investment; or

• income tax rates are low.

Our taxes could increase if certain tax holidays or incentives are not renewed upon expiration, or if tax rates applicable to us in such jurisdictions are otherwise increased. For example, on March 16, 2007, the Chinese government passed a unified enterprise income tax law which became effective on January 1, 2008. Among other things, the law cancels many income tax incentives previously applicable to one of our subsidiaries in China. The law provides a transition rule which increased the tax rate of one of our subsidiaries in China over a 5 year period to 25% by 2012. The law also increased the standard withholding rate on earnings distributions to between 5% and 10% depending on the residence of the shareholder. The ultimate effect of these and other changes in Chinese tax laws on our overall tax rate will be affected by, among other things, our China income, the manner in which China interprets, implements and applies the new tax provisions, and by our ability to qualify for any exceptions or new incentives.

46

In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries are regularly subject to tax return audits and examinations by various taxing jurisdictions, particularly in the US and China. In determining the adequacy of our provision for income taxes, we regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from tax examinations. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of the resolution of a tax examination, we believe that our reserves for uncertain tax positions reflect the outcome of tax positions that are more likely than not to occur. However, we cannot be certain that the final determination of any tax examinations will not be materially different than that which is reflected in our income tax provisions and accruals. Should additional taxes be assessed as a result of a current or future examination, there could be a material adverse effect on our tax provision, operating results, financial position and cash flows in the period or periods for which that determination is made.

If we fail to protect our products, technologies and trade secrets, we may not be able to successfully use, manufacture, market or sell our products, or we may fail to advance or maintain our competitive position, and we have limited intellectual property protection in China. *

Our success depends significantly on our ability to obtain and maintain meaningful patent protection for our products and technologies and to preserve our trade secrets. Our pending patent applications may not result in the issuance of patents in the future. Our patents or patent applications may not have priority over others’ applications. Our existing patents and additional patents that may be issued, if any, may not provide a competitive advantage to us or may be invalidated or circumvented by our competitors. Others may independently develop similar products or design around patents issued or licensed to us. Patents issued to, or patent applications filed by, other companies could harm our ability to use, manufacture, market or sell our products or maintain our competitive position with respect to our products. Although many of our patents relating to thymalfasin have expired, including composition of matter patents, we have rights to other patents and patent applications relating to thymalfasin and thymalfasin analogues, including method of use patents with respect to the use of thymalfasin for certain indications. Additionally, thymosin alpha 1 (“thymalfasin”), the chemical composition of thymalfasin, has received Orphan Drug designation in the US for the treatment of stage 2b through stage 4 melanoma, for the treatment of chronic active hepatitis B, for the treatment of DiGeorge anomaly with immune defects, and for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. If other parties develop generic forms of thymalfasin for other indications, including conducting clinical trials for such indications, our patents and other rights might not be sufficient to prohibit them from marketing and selling such generic forms of thymalfasin or their brands of thymalfasin. If other parties develop analogues or derivatives of thymalfasin, our patents and other rights might not be sufficient to prohibit them from marketing these analogues or derivatives.

Pharmaceutical products are either not patentable or have only recently become patentable in some of the countries in which we market or may market thymalfasin. We do not have composition patent claims directed to the thymalfasin that is currently marketed in China, our largest market, although we do have other type of patent claims, pending or issued, directed to other aspects of thymalfasin therapy. Other companies market generic thymalfasin in China, potentially in violation of our patent, trademark or other rights which, to date, we have defended by informing physicians and hospitals of the practice. Past enforcement of intellectual property rights in many of these countries, including China in particular, has been limited or non-existent. Future enforcement of patents and proprietary rights in many other countries will likely be problematic or unpredictable. Moreover, the issuance of a patent in one country does not assure the issuance of a similar patent in another country. Claim interpretation and infringement laws vary by nation, so the extent of any patent protection is uncertain and may vary in different jurisdictions.

If we are involved in intellectual property claims and litigation, the proceedings may divert our resources and subject us to significant liability for damages, substantial litigation expense and the loss of our proprietary rights.

Our commercial success depends in part on our not infringing valid, enforceable patents or proprietary rights of third parties, and not breaching any licenses that may relate to our technologies and products. In addition, we may not be aware of all patents or patent applications that may impact our ability to make, use or sell any of our potential products. For example, US patent applications may be kept confidential for 12 or more months while pending in the Patent and Trademark Office, and patent applications filed in foreign countries are often first published nine months or more after filing. It is possible that we may unintentionally infringe these patents or other patents or proprietary rights of third parties. We may in the future receive notices claiming infringement from third parties as well as invitations to take licenses under third-party patents. Any legal action against us or our collaborative partners claiming damages and seeking to enjoin commercial activities relating to our products and processes affected by third-party rights may require us or our collaborative partners to obtain licenses in order to continue to manufacture or market the affected products and processes. Our efforts to defend against any of these claims, regardless of merit, would require us to devote resources and attention that could have been directed to our operations and growth plans. In addition, these actions may subject us to potential liability for damages. We or our collaborative partners may not prevail in a patent action and any license required under a patent may not be made available on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. Any conflicts resulting from the patent rights of others could significantly reduce the coverage of our patents and limit our ability to obtain meaningful patent protection.

47

If other companies obtain patents with conflicting claims, we may be required to obtain licenses to those patents or develop or obtain alternative technology to manufacture or market the affected products and processes. We may not be able to obtain any such licenses on acceptable terms or at all. Any failure to obtain such licenses could delay or prevent us from pursuing the development or commercialization of our potential products. Our efforts to defend against any of these claims would require us to devote resources and attention that could have been directed to our operations and growth plans.

We may need to initiate litigation, which could be time-consuming and expensive, to enforce our proprietary rights or to determine the scope and validity of others’ rights. If litigation results, a court may find our patents or those of our licensors invalid or may find that we have infringed on a competitor’s rights. If any of our competitors have filed patent applications in the US which claim technology we also have invented, the Patent and Trademark Office may require us to participate in expensive interference proceedings to determine who has the right to a patent for the technology. These actions may subject us to potential liability for damages. We or our collaborative partners may not prevail in a patent action and any license required under a patent may not be made available on commercially acceptable terms, or at all.

Substantial sales of our stock or the exercise or conversion of options may impact the market price of our common stock.

In March 2012, we filed a Form S-3 Shelf registration with the SEC under which we may offer and sell up to $100.0 million of our securities, assuming we continue to meet the SEC’s eligibility requirements for primary offerings on Form S-3. Subsequently, affiliates of Sigma-Tau sold approximately 6.3 million shares for an aggregate price of approximately $33.1 million under this registration statement, and we have approximately $66.9 million available for future use. In addition, we issued 8,298,110 shares of the Company’s common stock to NovaMed under the terms of the acquisition in April 2011, and former NovaMed stockholders own approximately 15% of our outstanding common stock after the transaction. We have granted registration rights for those shares and the shares are freely tradable. Sales of the shares could lead to a decrease in the market price of our common stock.

Future issuances of substantial amounts of our common stock could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Similarly, if we raise additional funds through the issuance of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock or sell equity in a subsidiary, the percentage ownership of our present stockholders of the respective entities will be reduced and the price of our common stock may fall.

Our cash, cash equivalents and investments are subject to certain risks which could materially adversely affect our overall financial position. *

We invest our cash and cash equivalents in accordance with an established internal policy and customarily in instruments which historically have been highly liquid and carried relatively low risk. However, with turmoil in the credit markets, similar types of investments have experienced losses in value or liquidity issues which differ from their historical pattern. For example, we routinely have invested in money market funds with large financial institutions. One or more of these funds could experience losses or liquidity problems and, although to date some of the largest financial institutions who sponsor such funds have offset similar losses, there is no assurance that our financial institutions would either not incur losses or would offset any losses were they to occur.

Any adjustment to decrease the ratings of our investments by an Interest Rate Rating Agency may have a negative impact on the value of our investments.

Should any of our cash investments permanently lose value or have their liquidity impaired, it would have a material and adverse effect on our overall financial position by imperiling our ability to fund our operations and forcing us to seek additional financing sooner than we would otherwise and such financing may not be available on commercially attractive terms.

In addition, financial instruments may subject us to a concentration of credit risk. Most of our cash, and cash equivalents are held by a limited number of financial institutions. To date, we have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents. However, if any of these instruments permanently lost value or have their liquidity impaired, it would also have a material and adverse effect on our overall financial position by imperiling our ability to fund our operations and forcing us to seek additional financing sooner than we would otherwise and such financing may not be available on commercially attractive terms.

48

We expect that we may need to transfer capital to NovaMed from time to time to fund its operations. We need to obtain regulatory approval from China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) in order to make such transfers and there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such approval in a timely manner. We have been able to fund the operations of NovaMed to date through a commercial loan, but we could face difficulties in the future if our efforts to improve profitability and cash flow in NovaMed are not successful, or if we are unable to obtain SAFE approval or obtain further loans.

Furthermore, a majority of our cash is held by our foreign subsidiaries. While such cash is used to fund the operating activities of our foreign subsidiaries and for further investment in foreign operations, and we do not anticipate the need to repatriate cash held by foreign subsidiaries under our current operating plan, if we were to repatriate cash to the US, these amounts may be subject to US income tax upon repatriation.

Our ability to utilize our tax attributes may be limited by an “ownership change.”

Our ability to use our tax attributes, such as our US federal income tax net operating loss carryforwards and our tax credit carryforwards, may be substantially restricted if we have had in the past, or have in the future, an “ownership change” as defined in Section 382 of the US Internal Revenue Code. An ownership change occurs if increases in the percentage of our stock held by “5-percent shareholders” (within the meaning of Section 382, which provides that certain public groups can be treated as 5-percent shareholders) collectively exceed more than fifty percent, comparing the lowest percentage of stock owned by each 5-percent shareholder at any time during the testing period (which is generally a three-year rolling period) to the percentage of stock owned by the 5-percent shareholder immediately after the close of any owner shift testing date. Our issuance of Common Stock in the acquisition of NovaMed, our repurchases of our Common Stock and trading in our stock by stockholders, may have increased the possibility that in the future we could experience an ownership change. Trading by our stockholders, our stock repurchases or other transactions could, in the future, cause an ownership change, resulting in an annual limitation on utilization of our tax attributes. If our tax attribute usage is subject to limitation and if we are profitable, our future cash flows could be adversely affected due to an increased tax liability.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law may make an acquisition of us, which may be beneficial to our stockholders, more difficult.

Certain anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and our charter documents as currently in effect may make a change in control of our company more difficult, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our stockholders. Our charter documents contain certain anti-takeover provisions, including provisions in our certificate of incorporation providing that stockholders may not cumulate votes, stockholders’ meetings may be called by stockholders only if they hold 25% or more of our common stock and provisions in our bylaws providing that the stockholders may not take action by written consent. Additionally, our Board of Directors has the authority to issue 10 million shares of preferred stock and to determine the terms of those shares of stock without any further action by the stockholders. The rights of holders of our common stock are subject to the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued. The issuance of preferred stock could make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Delaware law also prohibits corporations from engaging in a business combination with any holders of 15% or more of their capital stock until the holder has held the stock for three years unless, among other possibilities, the board of directors approves the transaction. Our Board of Directors may use these provisions to prevent changes in the management and control of our company. Also, on December 18, 2006, our Board of Directors declared a dividend distribution of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right (collectively, the “Rights”) for each outstanding share of our Common Stock, each Right which entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value, at a price of $25.00 pursuant to a Rights Agreement dated as of December 19, 2006, between the Company and Mellon Investor Services LLC. The Rights have certain anti-takeover effects. Under certain circumstances the Rights could cause substantial dilution to a person or group who attempts to acquire the Company on terms not approved by our Board of Directors. Although the Rights should not interfere with an acquisition of the Company approved by the board, the Rights may have the effect of delaying and perhaps improving the terms of an acquisition for our stockholders, or deterring an acquisition of the Company. Also, under applicable Delaware law, our Board of Directors may adopt additional anti-takeover measures in the future.

49

We may be subject to product liability lawsuits, and our insurance may be inadequate to cover damages.

Clinical trials of any of our current and potential products or the actual commercial sales of our product may expose us to liability claims from the use of these products. We currently carry product liability insurance. However, we cannot be certain that we will be able to maintain insurance on acceptable terms, if at all, for clinical and commercial activities, that any insurance we have will cover any particular claim that is asserted, or that the insurance would be sufficient to cover any potential product liability claim or recall. If we fail to have sufficient coverage, our business, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

If we are unable to comply with environmental and other laws and regulations, our business may be harmed.

We are subject to various federal, state and local laws, regulations and recommendations relating to the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of hazardous materials and waste products (including radioactive compounds and infectious disease agents), as well as safe working conditions, laboratory and manufacturing practices and the experimental use of animals. The extent of government regulation that might result from future legislation or administrative action in these areas cannot be accurately predicted.

We do not currently maintain hazardous materials at our facilities. While we outsource our research and development programs involving the controlled use of biohazardous materials, if in the future we conduct these programs ourselves, we might be required to incur significant cost to comply with environmental laws and regulations. Further, in the event of an accident, we would be liable for any damages that result, and the liability could exceed our resources.

Our business and operations are subject to the risks of being based in particular locations known for earthquakes, other natural catastrophic disasters and service interruptions.

Our corporate headquarters are located in the Silicon Valley area of Northern California, a region known for seismic activity. Although we maintain a disaster recovery policy that includes storage of important corporate data in a different geographic region of the US, all of our significant corporate data is stored in our headquarters facility and accordingly, a significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake, could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Most of our sales are into China for which we maintain our warehouses for finished goods in Hong Kong, which can experience severe typhoon storms, earthquakes or other natural catastrophic disasters. Although our distributors in China may maintain several months supply of our product, were our warehouse capability to be interrupted, either through a natural disaster such as flooding or through a service interruption, such as a lack of electricity to power required air conditioning, our ability to timely deliver finished product to China could be adversely affected which in turn would materially adversely affect our sales and ensuing operating results.

We may be affected by climate change and market or regulatory responses to climate change.

Climate change, including the impact of global warming, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity if it were to disrupt the demand, supply or delivery of product, management of our business, or result in cost increases as a result of government regulation.

Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer. *

In the ordinary course of our business, we store sensitive data, including intellectual property, our proprietary business information, certain information regarding our business partners, and personally identifiable information of our employees, in our computer networks. The secure maintenance and transmission of this information is critical to our operations and reputation. Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach could compromise our computer networks and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, and regulatory penalties, and damage our reputation, any of which could adversely affect our business and competitive position.
