HENDERSON, Nevada — October 28, 2011— Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NasdaqGS: SPPI), a biotechnology company with fully integrated commercial and drug development operations with a primary focus in hematology and oncology, today reported record financial results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011.
“We are pleased that we are fulfilling our mission of bringing novel cancer treatments to patients while continuing to build shareholder value,” said Rajesh C. Shrotriya, MD, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President of Spectrum Pharmaceuticals. “Our cash flow from operations and financial condition, record revenues and profitability place Spectrum at the strongest position in our history. We believe the growing and robust sales of FUSILEV demonstrate the sustainability of the brand. We continue to work with the FDA regarding the removal of the bioscan requirement for ZEVALIN, which we believe is the most effective single-agent treatment for follicular non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Looking forward, we plan to expand the indications for both FUSILEV and ZEVALIN, and are currently on track to file two New Drug Applications in 2012 for apaziquone and belinostat.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures contained herein are a supplement to the corresponding financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures presented exclude the items summarized in the below table. Management believes that adjustments for these items assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that these items are not indicative of the Company’s on-going core operating performance.
Management uses non-GAAP net income (loss) in its evaluation of the Company’s core after-tax results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Management believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures allows investors to view the Company’s financial results in the way that management views the financial results.
The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of the Company’s business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
