FULL YEAR 2013 REPORTED RESULTS
Total revenues for the full year 2013 were $33.9 million, compared to $32.7 million for 2012. Full year 2013 revenues included $7.1 million in Fanapt® royalties received from Novartis as compared to royalties of $5.9 million for the prior year. Both 2013 and 2012 revenues include $26.8 million recognized from the $200.0 million upfront payment previously received from Novartis for Fanapt® U.S. and Canadian rights.
Total operating expenses for 2013 were $54.3 million, compared to $61.0 million for 2012. Full year 2013 research and development expenses of $28.2 million included $3.5 million in milestone payments associated with the FDA acceptance of the HETLIOZ™ New Drug Application. The primary driver of the lower research and development expenses in 2013 as compared to $45.4 million in 2012 was the completion of the HETLIOZ™ Non-24 and Major Depressive Disorder efficacy studies. General and administrative expenses of $24.6 million for 2013 were $10.7 million higher than for 2012 and reflect the increased commercial activity in preparation for the launch of HETLIOZ™in the United States.

OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
On January 31, 2014, Vanda announced that the FDA approved HETLIOZ™ (tasimelteon) 20mg capsules for the treatment of Non-24. HETLIOZ™ is the first FDA approved medication for Non-24. Non-24 was first described more than 60 years ago, and is a chronic, circadian rhythm disorder resulting from the misalignment of the endogenous master body clock to the 24-hour day, disrupting the sleep-wake cycle. Non-24 affects the majority of totally blind individuals and it is estimated that approximately 80,000 Americans have the disorder.
Vanda recorded full year 2013 revenue of $33.9 million including Fanapt® royalties of $7.1 million and $26.8 million in licensing revenue related to the amortization of the upfront payment received from Novartis for U.S. and Canadian commercial rights to Fanapt®. Fanapt® prescriptions, as reported by IMS, were approximately 43,400 for the fourth quarter of 2013. This represents a 1% decrease versus third quarter 2013 prescriptions and a 14% increase over fourth quarter 2012 Fanapt® prescriptions.
KEY 2014 CORPORATE ACTIVITIES
During fiscal 2014, Vanda expects to focus on the following corporate initiatives:
| • | Commerical launch of HETLIOZ™ in the U.S., which is currently expected in the second quarter of 2014 |
| • | File a MAA for tasimelteon for the treatment of Non-24 in the European Union |
