Full Year and Recent Business Highlights

Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) Antagonist Programs - Milestones and Next Steps

Rimegepant Zydis(®) ODT PDUFA date set for 1Q2020 - In September 2019, Biohaven provided an update on pipeline progress, which included an update on the NDA filing acceptances and PDUFA date for rimegepant Zydis(®) ODT and updates on other commercial launch activities. The Company also provided an update on the mid-cycle and in December 2019 provided an update on the late-cycle communication received from the FDA regarding the rimegepant NDA review. At the time of these communications:

    --  No major safety concerns were identified; the Company does not
        anticipate the need for a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy
        (REMS).
    --  There were no plans for an Advisory Committee meeting.
    --  There were no specific issues requiring input from the Company.

Announced positive topline results from Phase 2/3 trial evaluating intranasal vazegepant for the acute treatment of migraine - In December 2019, the Company announced positive topline results from its randomized, dose ranging, placebo controlled, pivotal Phase 2/3 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of intranasal vazegepant 5, 10 and 20 mg versus placebo in 1,673 patients for the acute treatment of migraine. Vazegepant 10 and 20 mg was statistically superior to placebo on the co-primary endpoints of pain freedom and freedom from most bothersome symptom (MBS, photophobia, phonophobia or nausea) at 2 hours using a single dose. The benefits of vazegepant were durable and sustained without rescue medication through 48 hours (nominal p < 0.05), including: sustained pain freedom 2 to 24 hours (5, 10 and 20 mg); sustained pain freedom 2 to 48 hours (5, 10 and 20 mg); sustained pain relief 2 to 24 hours (5, 10 and 20 mg); and sustained pain relief 2 to 48 hours (5 and 10 mg).

Completed enrollment of pivotal Phase 3 trial of rimegepant for the preventive treatment of migraine - In August 2019, the Company announced that it completed enrollment in its pivotal Phase 3 preventative treatment of migraine trial with rimegepant. Given rimegepant's high affinity for the CGRP receptor and its relatively long half-life, the Company believes that rimegepant may possess unique "dual-therapy" action with a potential ability to provide acute treatment of migraine attacks and preventive effects. To the Company's knowledge, rimegepant is currently the only small molecule CGRP antagonist being developed for both the acute and preventive indications in the treatment of migraine. The Company expects to report topline data in the first quarter of 2020.

Presented expanded data from long term clinical study demonstrating clinically important benefits after oral treatment of rimegepant on migraine-specific disability and quality of life at the International Headache Conference - In September 2019, the Company presented expanded data and post-hoc analyses from its long term clinical study demonstrating clinically important benefits of rimegepant on migraine-specific disability and quality of life in late breaking oral and poster sessions at the International Headache Conference in Dublin, Ireland.

    --  Acute treatment of migraine with rimegepant, an oral CGRP receptor
        antagonist, decreased disability by approximately 41% as measured by the
        Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS) questionnaire.
    --  Rimegepant treatment also demonstrated clinically significant
        improvements in daily functioning and health-related quality of life as
        measured by the Migraine-Specific Quality of Life Scale (MSQoL).
    --  Rimegepant dosed up to once daily for the acute treatment of migraine
        reduced lost productivity time by approximately 50% over the one-year
        treatment period.

Published Phase 3 data in leading medical journals and presented expanded data at the AHS Annual Scientific Meeting - In July 2019, the Company presented sixteen scientific presentations (oral and poster) at the American Headache Society (AHS) Annual Scientific Meeting highlighting new efficacy and safety data for rimegepant; notably, Biohaven presented the following data:

    --  Interim results from the long-term, open-label safety study of
        rimegepant 75 mg in over 1,780 patients with a combined exposure of over
        105,000 doses were presented for the first time at a scientific meeting.
    --  A pooled analysis of results from the three rimegepant Phase 3 trials
        looked at the efficacy of rimegepant in patients taking concurrent
        preventive medication and found rimegepant to be more effective than
        placebo for the acute treatment of migraine.
    --  A pooled analysis of results from the three rimegepant Phase 3 trials
        looked at the efficacy of rimegepant in patients with high migraine
        attack frequency (at least four attacks per month), a patient population
        that has previously been shown to be more difficult to treat, and found
        rimegepant was an effective acute treatment of migraine.
    --  The first clinical report evaluating the efficacy and safety of
        rimegepant for the acute treatment of migraine for breakthrough attacks
        in two patients concurrently receiving erenumab, a CGRP receptor binding
        monoclonal antibody, for preventive treatment of migraine was presented
        for the first time in a scientific meeting.

Announced expanded safety and preliminary preventive efficacy data from ongoing long-term safety study and presented case reports of using rimegepant to successfully treat breakthrough migraine attacks in patients taking preventive CGRP-targeting monoclonal antibodies - In May 2019, the Company announced expanded safety & efficacy data from an ongoing long-term safety study with rimegepant at the American Academy of Neurology Annual Meeting.

    --  The Company reported that rimegepant was well tolerated with long-term
        dosing up to one year in patients with migraine. At that point in time,
        105,192 doses of rimegepant 75 mg were administered up to once daily to
        over 1,780 patients with migraine. Interim hepatic data were reviewed by
        an external independent panel of liver experts who concluded that there
        was no liver safety signal and compared to placebo arms of other
        migraine treatments, there was a very low incidence of overall
        elevations of liver laboratory abnormalities (1% incidence of serum ALT
        or AST > 3x the upper limit of normal (ULN) through the data analysis
        cut-off date).

For the first time, the Company also reported Study 201 safety & preliminary efficacy data from the 286 cohort of patients with a history of 4 to 14 moderate to severe migraine attacks per month, treated with rimegepant 75 mg every other day for up to 12 consecutive weeks. During the on-treatment period, no rimegepant-treated patients (N=281) experienced ALT or AST levels >3x the ULN. There were also no rimegepant-treated patients who experienced alkaline phosphatase or bilirubin >2x the ULN. With regard to efficacy, 48.4% of subjects in the scheduled dosing cohort experienced a >=50% reduction in the frequency of monthly migraine days with moderate-to-severe pain intensity during the third month of treatment.

    --  The Company also presented the first clinical reports suggesting that
        oral rimegepant has the potential to be safe and consistently effective
        for the treatment of breakthrough migraine attacks in patients taking
        injectable CGRP-targeting monoclonal antibody preventive therapy.

Launched the "Demand More" migraine disease awareness campaign at the 2019 American Headache Society Annual Scientific Meeting - In July 2019, the Company announced the launch of the "Demand More" campaign based on research that suggests patients are not getting the relief they want and need from their current acute treatments. In surveys of patients with migraine, 56 percent of patients reported they still experienced migraine pain two hours post-treatment, and 54 percent of patients taking existing acute treatments reported inadequate pain relief at 24 hours. Approximately 48 percent of patients weren't satisfied with their ability to function after taking their current acute treatment. Approximately 67 percent of patients reported they delayed or avoided acute medications due to concerns about side effects. More information about the campaign can be found at: www.realrelieffrommigraine.com.

Announced Acceptance of IND Filing for Rimegepant in China - In January 2019, the Company, together with its wholly-owned Asia-Pacific subsidiary company BioShin, announced that the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) had accepted its IND application for rimegepant, Biohaven's lead oral CGRP receptor antagonist product candidate, for the treatment of migraine. Rimegepant is the first small molecule, orally administered, CGRP receptor antagonist potentially being developed for both the acute and preventive treatment of migraine in China. Biohaven's wholly-owned Asia-Pacific subsidiary, BioShin, is developing and potentially commercializing Biohaven's late-stage product portfolio in China.

Glutamate Modulation Platform - Milestones and Next Steps

Verdiperstat receives may proceed letter from FDA for ALS - In January 2020, Biohaven announced that the FDA has notified its collaborators at the Sean M. Healey & AMG Center for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) that they may proceed with clinical investigation of verdiperstat, Biohaven's novel myeloperoxidase (MPO) inhibitor, in ALS. This will be the second potentially registrational trial of verdiperstat in neurodegenerative disorders. Biohaven has already initiated a separate trial of verdiperstat in multiple system atrophy.

In September 2019, the Company announced that verdiperstat was selected as an investigational therapy in the first ALS platform trial, a program designed by the Sean M. Healey & AMG Center for ALS at MGH to help accelerate a path to new and effective ALS treatments. An independent advisory council selected verdiperstat for inclusion in the platform based on a thorough scientific and clinical review.

Successful completion of pre-planned futility analysis in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease - In December 2019, the Company announced completion of a pre-planned futility analysis for the T2 Protect AD Study, an ongoing Phase 2/3 clinical trial of troriluzole in Alzheimer's disease led by the Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study (ADCS) at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine. In order to pass the interim futility analysis, troriluzole had to demonstrate numerically greater benefit over placebo on at least one of the two pre-specified criteria at 26 weeks: either (i) cognitive function as measured by the ADAS-cog or (ii) hippocampal volume as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging. Biohaven announced that based upon the interim futility and safety analysis performed by the independent DMSB that the study would continue. The Company had previously reported completion of enrollment in the study, which includes over 700 patients, in November 2019. The Company anticipates reporting topline data from this trial around the end of 2020.

Troriluzole misses primary endpoint in GAD study - In February 2020, the Company reported negative topline results in its pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial assessing troriluzole in Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). The eight-week trial randomized 402 adult patients equally at more than 45 centers in the United States. In this trial, troriluzole monotherapy at 100mg twice daily did not differentiate from placebo on the primary endpoint of the mean change from baseline on the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) after eight weeks of treatment. The Company will not continue development of troriluzole as a monotherapy in GAD but continues to evaluate troriluzole in strategic indications where smaller trials have shown glutamate modulation may have an impact.

Commenced Enrollment in Phase 3 Clinical Trial of troriluzole in SCA - In March 2019, the Company announced enrollment commencement in a Phase 3 clinical trial assessing the efficacy and safety of troriluzole in SCA. The trial will randomize approximately 230 patients across two treatment arms, 200 mg of troriluzole versus placebo, and enrollment completion is anticipated in the second quarter of 2020. Based on findings from the previous Phase 2b/3 clinical trial, Biohaven enriched the trial with specific genotypes, extended the treatment period of the trial to one year, implemented the use of a modified SARA scale and increased the dose of troriluzole from 140 to 200 mg.

The Company also announced results from a post-hoc analysis of patients enrolled in the short-term randomization and long-term extension phase of Study BHV4157-201, an initial Phase 2b/3 randomized controlled trial of troriluzole in patients with SCA, compared to patients selected from a natural history cohort of SCA patients who were matched on multiple eligibility criteria. Based on analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) least square mean changes after one year were -0.34 points (representing numerical improvement with a 95% confidence interval of -0.94 to 0.26) for 81 troriluzole-treated patients versus +1.07 points (representing numerical decline with a 95% confidence interval of 0.56 to 1.58) for 112 natural history cohort patients (increasing score indicates worsening disease status). The LS Mean difference between cohorts was -1.41 points (95% confidence interval of -2.22 to -0.60) suggesting therapeutic benefits of troriluzole (p=0.0007). Patients in Study BHV4157-201 were treated with 140 mg of troriluzole administered daily for one year.

Myeloperoxidase Inhibition Platform - Milestones and Next Steps

Enrolled first patient in phase 3 clinical trial of verdiperstat for the treatment of multiple system atrophy - In July 2019, the Company announced that it enrolled the first patient in a Phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of verdiperstat in subjects with MSA. The study will enroll subjects with MSA diagnosed using consensus clinical criteria and include both subtypes of MSA, MSA-Parkinsonism (MSA-P) and MSA-Cerebellar (MSA-C). Researchers will evaluate the efficacy of verdiperstat, compared to placebo, as measured by a change from baseline in a modified version of the Unified MSA Rating Scale (UMSARS) at Week 48.

In February 2019, the Company announced receipt of orphan drug designation from the FDA for verdiperstat. Verdiperstat completed Phase 1 clinical trials at doses up to 900mg twice a day and preliminary results from a Phase 2a trial in patients with MSA showed numerical improvements on the change from baseline Unified MSA Rating Scale. The Company had received notification from the FDA in January 2019 that it may proceed with its clinical investigation of verdiperstat. The FDA "May Proceed" Letter was received following Biohaven's reactivation of the IND application initially filed by AstraZeneca prior to licensing the compound to Biohaven.

Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2019

Cash Position: Cash as of December 31, 2019, was $316.7 million, excluding $1.0 million of restricted cash, compared to $264.2 million as of December 31, 2018. In addition, the Company received $282.8 million in net proceeds in the first quarter 2020 from our public offering of common shares.

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses including one-time regulatory and license fees were $344.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to $190.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase of $154.7 million was primarily due to:

    --  one-time $105.0 million payment for a priority review voucher to
        expedite the FDA review of the Zydis ODT formulation of rimegepant in
        the second quarter of 2019;
    --  filing fees of $7.6 million related to our rimegepant NDA submissions to
        the FDA in the second quarter of 2019;
    --  expense for development milestone paid in the fourth quarter of 2019 to
        BMS of $7.5 million for rimegepant NDA submissions in the second quarter
        of 2019;
    --  increases in costs for the rimegepant commercial drug supply and product
        validation batches of $12.7 million in 2019;
    --  increases in direct costs of $24.6 million for our troriluzole program,
        which include increases for our GAD, OCD, and Alzheimer's Disease
        trials;
    --  increases in direct costs of $33.6 million for our vazegepant program,
        including expenses for development milestones payable to BMS of $10.0
        million in 2019;
    --  increase of $6.2 million for our preclinical research programs mainly
        due to a $5.6 million non-cash research and development expense due to
        the issuance of common shares in the second quarter of 2019 relating to
        the collaborative discovery program with FCCDC; and
    --  increases in personnel costs of $25.8 million resulting from an increase
        of $17.9 million in non-cash share-based compensation in 2019 as a
        result of additional share-based compensation awards and hiring
        additional research and development personnel.

The increase in R&D expenses was partially offset by the $50.0 million one-time upfront payment to BMS in the year ended December 31, 2018.

General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses were $134.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $34.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase of $99.8 million was primarily due to preparation for rimegepant commercialization activities, including increases in personnel-related costs, including non-cash share-based compensation, due to the hiring of additional personnel, and professional and consulting fees supporting the potential commercial launch of rimegepant. Non-cash share-based compensation expense was $28.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, an increase of $20.1 million as compared to the same period in 2018.

Net Loss: The Company reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2019 of $528.8 million, or $10.91 per share, compared to $240.9 million, or $6.15 per share for the same period in 2018.
