“In the three months since I have stepped in as the Interim CEO, we have worked tirelessly to ensure that we extract synergies related to the Actavis Generics transaction, drive additional efficiencies throughout the organization, support cash generation, pay down debt, deliver on the promise of the specialty pipeline and execute key generic launches,” stated Dr. Yitzhak Peterburg, Interim Chief Executive Officer. “We are pleased that the transaction synergies and additional cost reductions are on track, and we now expect to realize cumulative net synergies and cost reduction of approximately $1.5 billion by the end of 2017, an increase of $200 million compared to our previous guidance.

In Specialty, we have received several important approvals, including the recent approval and launch of AUSTEDO™ for Huntington’s disease.”
