Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE: TEVA) today reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

“This was a significant quarter for Teva as we remain on track to reach our financial goals for the year,” stated Dr. Jeremy Levin, Teva’s President and CEO. “The U.S. generics business continued to recover with a positive trend, our global branded division experienced strong growth, and our European generics business, while down from last year’s second quarter results due to macroeconomic conditions, showed solid sequential growth from the first quarter of this year. Overall, we continue to see tremendous opportunities ahead, and look forward to rebuilding shareholder value over time.”

Net revenues in the in the second quarter were $2.5 billion (representing 49% of total revenues), an increase of 28% compared to the second quarter of 2011, primarily as a result of strong revenues of both our generic medicines, including the launch of four new medicines, and our branded medicines, as well as the inclusion of Cephalon.

Net revenues in in the second quarter were $1.5 billion (representing 30% of total revenues), unchanged compared to the second quarter of 2011, and an increase of 12% in local currency terms. Revenues in Europe this quarter benefited from the inclusion of Cephalon’s revenues as well as stronger revenues from some of our branded medicines, primarily Copaxone. We grew our revenues in several markets in Europe, including Italy and Spain, where revenues in local currency terms increased approximately 10% and 6%, respectively. These positives were offset by the negative effect on our revenues of foreign currencies (primarily declines in the value of the euro and Hungarian forint), and to a lesser extent by lower generics sales due to ongoing macro-economic conditions and healthcare reforms in key European markets.

Net revenues in the in the second quarter totaled $1.1 billion (representing 21% of total revenues), up 30% compared to the second quarter of 2011. In local currency terms, ROW revenues grew by 36%. The growth in revenues resulted primarily from sales in Russia and other Eastern European countries, Latin America and Israel, as well as from the inclusion of Cephalon and Taiyo, our Japanese acquisition.

medicines net revenues in the second quarter were $2.6 billion (including API sales to third parties of $200 million), an increase of 9% compared to $2.4 billion in the second quarter of 2011. Generics revenues consisted of:

medicines net revenues in the second quarter were $1.9 billion, an increase of 37% compared to $1.4 billion in the second quarter of 2011. Branded revenues consist of:

Branded revenues comprised 39% of total revenues in the quarter, compared to 34% in the second quarter of 2011.

The increase in branded medicines revenues over the second quarter of 2011 was primarily due to the inclusion of Cephalon’s sales (mainly Treanda with $139 million, and Nuvigil with $91 million) and strong sales of Teva medicines. Sales of Provigildeclined substantially to $48 million this quarter due to the introduction of generic competition.

Global revenues recorded by Teva on Copaxone, the leading multiple sclerosis therapy in the U.S. and globally, increased 12% to $982 million compared to $877 million in the second quarter of 2011. In local currency terms, Copaxone® revenues increased 16% year over year. The increase is primarily due to Teva recording a first full quarter of sales since the completion of the successful take-back of distribution and marketing rights from Sanofi in Europe, as well as increased sales in ROW. In the U.S., sales increased 3% to $701 million, as a result of a price increase in the first quarter of 2012. Sales outside the U.S. were $281 million, an increase of 44%, or 62% in local currency terms, compared to the second quarter of 2011, mainly as a result of the take back and sales in Russia.

During the quarter there were favorable court rulings in both the U.S. and U.K. which should ensure protection of Copaxone from generic competition until September 2015. In addition, the recently-presented positive results from the Phase III GALA trial (40mg administered three times per week) demonstrate both a potential alternate dosing regimen and Teva’s commitment to improving the patient experience. We expect an FDA submission of the Phase III GALA results in the first quarter of 2013. Azilect revenues recorded by Teva increased 36% to $95 million, while global in-market revenues increased 11% to $108 million, primarily because of strong sales in the U.S., France and the U.K.

net revenues in the quarter were $219 million, an increase of 21%, or 31% in local currency terms, compared to $181 million in the second quarter of 2011 primarily due to sales to P&G.

net revenues in the quarter were $212 million, mostly from the distribution of third party medicines in Israel and Hungary, compared to $203 million in the second of 2011.

differences between this quarter and the second quarter of 2011 reduced our revenues by approximately $236 million, while having a minor negative impact on operating income. The impact on revenues resulted primarily from the weakening of certain currencies (primarily the euro, Hungarian forint and Russian ruble) relative to the U.S. dollar.

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS for the quarter are adjusted to exclude the following items:

Teva believes that excluding such items facilitates investors' understanding of the Company's business. See the attached tables for a reconciliation of our GAAP results to the adjusted non-GAAP figures.

GAAP net income and GAAP EPS were $863 million and $0.99 in the quarter, an increase of 50% and 55%, respectively, compared to $576 million and $0.64 in the second quarter of 2011.

Quarterly non-GAAP of $1.4 billion, up 27% compared to the second quarter of 2011. Quarterly GAAP operating income totaled $1.0 billion, an increase of 69% compared to $597 million in the second quarter of 2011.

Non-GAAP was 59.5% in the quarter, compared to 57.3% in the second quarter of 2011. This reflects the increase in the contribution from branded medicines, primarily due to the integration of Cephalon, and the new launches in the U.S., slightly offset by the decrease in generics sales in Europe. GAAP gross profit margin was 53.2% in the quarter, compared to 52.2% in the second quarter of 2011.

expenditures in the quarter totaled $298 million, or 6.0% of revenues, compared to $243 million, or 5.8% of revenues in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in R&D spending primarily reflects the inclusion of Cephalon. Gross R&D in the second quarter of 2012, before reimbursement from third parties for certain R&D expenses, totaled approximately $329 million, or 6.6% of revenues.

expenditures (excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets) totaled $973 million, or 19.5% of revenues, in the quarter, compared to $794 million, or 18.9% of revenues in the second quarter of 2011. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of Cephalon and Taiyo and the take-back of Copaxone in Europe, partially offset by exchange rate differences and lower royalty payments made on generic medicines in the U.S.

expenditures totaled $316 million in the quarter, or 6.3% of revenues, compared with $284 million, or 6.7% of revenues, for the second quarter of 2011. The increase in expenditures was primarily due to the inclusion of Cephalon as well as Taiyo.

Non-GAAP net in the second quarter of 2012 totaled $97 million, compared with financial income of $20 million in the second quarter of 2011. The increase is mainly due to higher interest expenses resulting from the additional debt assumed in connection with the acquisitions of Cephalon and Taiyo, as well as from higher hedging costs.

The non-GAAP provision for the second quarter of 2012 amounted to $162 million on pre-tax non-GAAP income of $1.3 billion. The provision for tax in the second quarter of 2011 was

$113 million on pre-tax income of $1.1 billion. We expect a slightly higher annual tax rate for 2012 compared to the annual tax rate in 2011, primarily as a result of the change in geographical and product mix following the Cephalon acquisition.

from operations during the quarter was $1.2 billion, compared to $1.3 billion in the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of 10%. Free cash flow, excluding net capital expenditures and dividends was $709 million, a decrease of 21%.The decrease is primarily because cash flow in the second quarter of 2011 was atypically high. on June 30, 2012 amounted to $1.8 billion.

Duringthe quarter, totaled approximately 3.5 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $134 million. Since the beginning of 2012, Teva has repurchased 15.4 million shares for approximately $667 million as part of the $3.0 billion share repurchase plan that was authorized in December 2011. As a result of the repurchases, the fully diluted share count has been reduced by approximately eight million shares from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012.

For the second quarter of 2012, the weighted average for the fully diluted earnings per share calculation was 873 million on both a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis. At June 30, 2012, the share count for calculating Teva's market capitalization was approximately 868 million.

at June 30, 2012, was $22.9 billion, a decrease of $0.3 billion, compared to $23.2 billion at March 31, 2012. The decrease in total equity is primarily a result of currency translation adjustments, share repurchases and dividends paid, partially offset by GAAP net income of $863 million.

The Board of Directors, at its meeting on July 31, 2012, declared a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2012 of NIS 1.00 (approximately 25.0 cents according to the rate of exchange on July 31, 2012) per share.

The record date will be August 15, 2012, and the payment date will be September 9, 2012. Tax will be withheld at a rate of 16%.
