The decrease in GAAP net income and EPS in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 was primarily due to the amortization of the $111.1 million cost of the priority review voucher utilized in connection with the company's JZP-258 new drug application (NDA) submission.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $253.2 million, or $4.42 per diluted share, compared to $220.0 million, or $3.64 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018.

Operating expenses increased over the prior year periods primarily due to the following:

    --  Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased in 2019
        and in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018
        on a GAAP and on a non-GAAP adjusted basis primarily due to expenses
        related to the expansion of the company's business, including the U.S.
        launch of Sunosi.
    --  Research and development (R&D) expenses increased in 2019 and in the
        fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 on a GAAP
        and on a non-GAAP adjusted basis primarily due to expenses related to
        the company's expanding pre-clinical and clinical development programs
        and support of its partner programs, including milestone payments of
        $26.0 million in 2019 to Pfenex, Inc. under a license and option
        agreement to develop and commercialize multiple early stage hematology
        product candidates.

The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2019 on both a GAAP and on a non-GAAP adjusted basis included a benefit of $31.6 million for the years 2015 to 2019 resulting from the application of the Italian patent box incentive. The effective tax rate for 2019 on a GAAP basis included a one-time tax benefit of $112.3 million resulting from an intra-entity intellectual property asset transfer.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Jazz Pharmaceuticals' financial results and guidance presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company uses certain non-GAAP (also referred to as adjusted or non-GAAP adjusted) financial measures in this press release and the accompanying tables. In particular, the company presents non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components, as well as certain non-GAAP adjusted financial measures derived therefrom, including non-GAAP adjusted gross margin percentage and non-GAAP adjusted effective tax rate. Non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components exclude from reported GAAP net income (and the related per share measure) and its line item components certain items, as detailed in the reconciliation tables that follow, and in the case of non-GAAP adjusted net income (and the related per share measure), adjust for the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments and, as applicable, the income tax benefit related to an intra-entity intellectual property asset transfer and the impact of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Job Act (U.S. Tax Act). In this regard, the components of non-GAAP adjusted net income, including non-GAAP cost of product sales, non-GAAP SG&A expenses and non-GAAP R&D expenses, are income statement line items prepared on the same basis as, and therefore components of, the overall non-GAAP adjusted net income measure.

The company believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to, and facilitates additional analysis by, investors and analysts. In particular, the company believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the company's financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, can enhance investors' and analysts' ability to meaningfully compare the company's results from period to period and to its forward-looking guidance, and to identify operating trends in the company's business. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are regularly used by investors and analysts to model and track the company's financial performance. Jazz Pharmaceuticals' management also regularly uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the company's business and to make operating decisions, and compensation of executives is based in part on certain of these non-GAAP financial measures. Because these non-GAAP financial measures are important internal measurements for Jazz Pharmaceuticals' management, the company also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and analysts since these measures allow for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics the company uses in assessing its own operating performance and making operating decisions.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures; should be read in conjunction with the company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP; have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, from time to time in the future there may be other items that the company may exclude for purposes of its non-GAAP financial measures; and the company has ceased, and may in the future cease, to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its non-GAAP financial measures. For example, commencing with the presentation of the company's financial guidance for 2020, the company will no longer exclude upfront and milestone payments from the company's non-GAAP adjusted net income, its line item components and non-GAAP adjusted EPS. Accordingly, while certain of such payments are excluded from its non-GAAP financial measures for the year ended December 31, 2019, as detailed in the reconciliation tables that follow, such presentation is made solely for comparability and transition purposes and will not be continued going forward. Likewise, the company may determine to modify the nature of its adjustments to arrive at its non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions of non-GAAP financial measures, the non-GAAP financial measures as used by Jazz Pharmaceuticals in this press release and the accompanying tables have limits in their usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Other risks and uncertainties of which the company is not currently aware may also affect the company's forward-looking statements and may cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from those anticipated.
