"We recently achieved an important milestone in the program for ALKS 2680, our novel, investigational, oral orexin 2 receptor agonist, completing enrollment in our first phase 2 study in the program, Vibrance-1, in narcolepsy type 1. We now expect topline results from Vibrance-1 early in the third quarter. We expect to complete enrollment in the Vibrance-2 phase 2 study, in narcolepsy type 2, mid-year, with topline data from that study expected in the fall. Enrollment in Vibrance-3, our phase 2 study in idiopathic hypersomnia, is now also underway. Across the ALKS 2680 development program, we have strong momentum and are preparing for the phase 3 program. With the potential to transform the treatment of central disorders of hypersomnolence, orexin 2 receptor agonists are one of the most exciting new therapeutic categories in development."

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresThis press release includes information about certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. EBITDA represents earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes share-based compensation expense in addition to the components of EBITDA from earnings. The company's management and board of directors utilize these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the company's performance. The company provides these non-GAAP financial measures of the company's performance to investors because management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with the company's results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, are useful in identifying underlying trends in ongoing operations. However, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures as indicators of operating performance. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered measures of the company's liquidity. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables included in this press release.
