Exhibit 99.3
PDL BioPharma, Inc.
Q4 2017
March 8, 2018
Following are some of the key points regarding PDL’s fourth quarter and year-end 2017 financial and business results.
Highlighted Financial Results from Q4 2017
• | Total revenues of $68.0 million and $320.1 million for the three and 12 months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. |
• | GAAP diluted EPS of $0.15 and $0.71 for the three and 12 months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. |
• | GAAP net income attributable to PDL’s shareholders of $22.3 million and $110.7 million for the three and 12 months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. |
• | Non-GAAP net income attributable to PDL’s shareholders of $24.8 million and $100.7 million for the three and 12 months ended December 31, 2017. |
• | PDL had cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and other investments of $532.1 million at December 31, 2017, compared to $242.1 million at December 31, 2016. |
• | PDL’s portfolio of assets has a net book value of $5.54 per share. |
Recent Developments
• | On February 1, 2018, PDL completed the retirement of the remaining $126.4 million of aggregate principal of its 4.0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 at their stated maturity by making a payment to the noteholders of $126.4 million, plus $2.6 million of accrued interest. |
Updates on royalty-bearing products relating to Queen et al. Patents
Tysabri® (Approved royalty-bearing product relating to Queen et al. patents)
• | While the Queen et al. patents have expired and the resulting royalty revenue has dropped substantially since the first quarter of 2016, we continue to receive royalty revenue from one product under the Queen et al. patent licenses, Tysabri®, as a result of sales of the product that was manufactured prior to patent expiry. In November 2017, we were notified by Biogen that product supply for Tysabri that was manufactured prior to patent expiry, and for which we would receive royalties on, had been extinguished in the United States and was rapidly being reduced in other countries. As a result, we anticipate royalties from product sales of Tysabri to be substantially lower in 2018 and cease after the first quarter of 2019. |
• | PDL recorded revenue of $4.5 million from Tysabri® in Q4 2017. |
Noden Pharma
• | Noden US is commercializing Tekturna® and Tekturna HCT® in the United States and Noden Pharma DAC, an Irish based company, is assuming commercialization responsibilities for Rasilez® and Rasilez HCT® in the rest of the world, starting in the second half of 2017. The products are indicated for the treatment of hypertension. |
• | PDL owns 100 percent of Noden and continues to hold three of five board seats. |
• | Noden and PDL are evaluating additional pharma products in the form of optimized, established medicines, to acquire for Noden. |
• | Noden net revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 was $25.1 million, with $14.5 million in US revenue and $10.6 million in the rest of world. |
◦ | Gross margins on the US revenue in the fourth quarter were 79 percent. |
◦ | The $10.6 million of revenue for the ex-U.S. includes one month of net of cost of goods and a fee to Novartis through its transition services agreement and two months of revenue which excludes the Novartis profit transfer since EU and Switerland marketing authorizations have been transferred to Noden as of November 1, 2017. |
◦ | As a result, we will see higher revenues (as ex-US revenue were previously reported net of COGS and fees from Novartis), but we will also see an increase in reported cost of sales. Noden’s overall goal is to maximize profits generated from its portfolio, and this led us to de-register the products in those few European countries where |

Rasilez was either not or only marginally profitable. Although this has had a negative impact on revenue, it has improved operating margins.
• | In December of 2017, Noden entered into an agreement with Lee’s Pharmaceutical Holdings Ltd. granting them exclusive sales rights to Rasilez in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, with guaranteed payments due to Noden. We had not forecasted sales in these territories during our acquisition of Rasilez, so this agreement represents an incremental opportunity. Also in December, Noden entered into an agreement with Orphan Pacific for the distribution of Rasilez in Japan. |

Updates on Notes Receivable
CareView
• | In February 2018, we entered into a modification agreement with CareView whereby we agreed, effective as of December 28, 2017, to modify the credit agreement before remedies could otherwise have become available to us under the credit agreement in relation to certain obligations of CareView that would potentially not be met, including the requirement to make principal payments. Under the modification agreement we agreed that (i) a lower liquidity covenant would be applicable and (ii) principal repayment would be delayed for a period of up to December 31, 2018. In exchange for agreeing to these modifications, among other things, the exercise price of our warrants to purchase 4.4 million shares of common stock of CareView was reduced and, subject to the occurrence of certain events, CareView agreed to grant us additional equity interests. |
Wellstat Diagnostics, LLC
• | In NY court action commenced by PDL to collect from related entities who are guarantors of the loan, the judge ruled in favor of PDL. On appeal, the appellate division of the NY court reversed on procedural grounds the portion of the decision granting PDL summary judgment, remanding the case to the trial division for a plenary action. The action is currently before the NY trial court and in the pre-trial phase. The parties will have the opportunity to conduct discovery and file dispositive motions prior to trial. No trial date has been set yet. |
• | In September 2017, Wellstat Therapeutics, one of the Wellstat Guarantors, obtained a decision against BTG International, Inc. in a breach of contract case which set the damages at $55.8 million plus interest and fees. Wellstat Therapeutics will only receive the award in a final court decision or settlement between the parties, and BTG has appealed the decision. |
• | On February 6, 2018, the NY Court issued an order from the bench which enjoins the Wellstat Guarantors from selling, encumbering, removing, transferring or altering the collateral, and further precludes PDL from foreclosing on certain collateral during the pendency of the case. The Guarantors have not yet posted the required $300,000 bond to implement the injunction on PDL’s foreclosure. |
