England : Mylan N.V. (NASDAQ, TASE: MYL) announced that it has successfully completed the acquisition of the non-sterile, topicals-focused specialty and generics business of Renaissance Acquisition Holdings, LLC ("Renaissance").

Mylan CEO Heather Bresch commented, "By bringing together the Renaissance topicals business with Mylan's existing assets and the pending addition of Meda and its dermatology portfolio, we will become a leader in this very attractive category. We see significant opportunities in this area as we maximize our combined assets across our customer channels and geographies, and expect dermatology/topicals to be another key global franchise for us.

We are confident that we will be able to drive significant growth from this Business by taking their portfolio and pipeline, in combination with the Mylan and Meda assets, into new markets outside of North America. We also look forward to continuing to provide the Business's valued customers with high quality products and services they expect."

This press release references the non-GAAP financial measure "adjusted diluted earnings per share." On a U.S. GAAP basis, the transaction is expected to be neutral to diluted earnings per share in year one following closing and accretive thereafter. To calculate adjusted diluted earnings per share, Mylan starts with U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share and adjusts for various items, including acquisition related amortization; litigation settlements, net; non-cash accretion of contingent consideration liability; certain R&D milestone payments; clean energy investments pre-tax losses; acquisition related costs; restructuring and other special items; and the tax effect of these items. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered only as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or as a superior measure to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
