$462.5 million – The Company recognized$190.0 million in net product revenue from sales of NURTEC ODT in the fourth quarter of 2021, a40% increase compared to the third quarter of 2021, and a441% increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2020. - Entered strategic collaboration with Pfizer for the commercialization of rimegepant and zavegepant outside of the United States – In November 2021, Biohaven and Pfizer announced a strategic commercialization arrangement for NURTEC ODT in markets outside of the United States upon approval. The strategic commercialization arrangement closed in January 2022. At closing, Pfizer made an upfront payment to Biohaven of
$500.0 million , consisting of$150.0 million cash and$350.0 million in the purchase of Biohaven equity. Biohaven is also eligible to receive up to$740.0 million in future milestones and tiered, double-digit royalties on ex-U.S. net sales. In addition to the tiered double-digit royalties owed to Biohaven on net sales outside of the U.S., Pfizer will compensate Biohaven for a pro-rata share of certain of its sales-based milestone obligations owed to Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ("BMS") and for the related royalties on net sales outside of the U.S. owed under Biohaven's license and funding agreements with BMS and Royalty Pharma. - NURTEC ODT approved in the U.S. for the preventive treatment of migraine – In May 2021, the Company announced that the FDA approved NURTEC ODT for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine. This milestone approval makes NURTEC ODT the first and only medication approved to both treat and prevent migraine attacks, expanding the product label to include the use of NURTEC ODT 75 mg up to 18 doses per month. In the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial, NURTEC ODT rapidly and effectively prevented migraine, reducing migraine days by
30% after just 1 week of every other day treatment, and approximately half of patients experienced at least a50% reduction in moderate-to-severe migraine days by 3 months of treatment. - Received positive opinion recommending the granting of a marketing authorization for rimegepant 75 mg for the acute and preventive treatment of migraine, from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use, a committee of the European Medicines Agency - In February 2022, the Company was notified that CHMP adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a marketing authorization in the European Union ("EU") for rimegepant 75 mg (available as an orally dissolving tablet), intended for the prophylaxis and acute treatment of migraine. If approved, VYDURA™(rimegepant) will be the commercial name for rimegepant in the EU. The full indication for VYDURA is the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults and preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults who have at least four migraine attacks per month. Biohaven expects to receive determination regarding its Marketing Authorization Application in the EU for rimegepant in the first half of 2022.
- Reported positive topline results from pivotal trial of NURTEC ODT for the acute treatment of migraine in China and South Korea – In February 2022, the Company announced positive topline results from China and South Korea, Phase 3 clinical trial of NURTEC ODT in adults for the acute treatment of migraine. Led by BioShin Limited, a subsidiary of Biohaven, the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, regional, multi-center study met the co-primary endpoints evaluating the efficacy and safety of the orally dissolving tablet ("ODT") formulation of rimegepant, an oral CGRP receptor antagonist. This is the fifth positive pivotal study of rimegepant and the first to be conducted in Asia Pacific. The study met its co-primary endpoints of freedom from pain (p<0.0001) and freedom from most bothersome migraine–associated symptom ("MBS") including either nausea, phonophobia or photophobia (p<0.0001) at 2-hours following a single oral dose of rimegepant. The early onset and durable 48-hour efficacy observed in China and South Korea were consistent with previous clinical trial results. In addition to the co-primary endpoints, NURTEC ODT preliminary data demonstrated significant relief of multiple migraine symptoms with rapid onset efficacy that was statistically superior to placebo as early as 45 minutes for both pain relief and freedom from MBS (p<0.05), at 60 minutes for return to normal function (p = 0.0023), and at 90 minutes for pain freedom (p = 0.0012). NURTEC ODT demonstrated sustained efficacy on all four of these clinically important efficacy outcomes through 48 hours. The use of rescue medication within 24 hours was significantly lower for NURTEC ODT-treated patients than for placebo (p < 0.0001). Rimegepant also showed a favorable safety and tolerability profile among study participants that was consistent with prior clinical trial results in the United States. Detailed data from the study will be presented at future medical meetings to help inform ongoing and future research.
- NURTEC ODT approved in Israel for both acute and preventative treatment of migraine – In December 2021, the Company announced that the Ministry of Health of Israel approved NURTEC ODT for preventative treatment, the first global approval outside of the U.S. for prevention. In March 2021, the Company announced approval in the region for the acute treatment of migraine.
- NURTEC ODT approved in Kuwait for the acute treatment of migraine – In November 2021, the Company announced that NURTEC ODT obtained registrational approval from the Kuwait Ministry of Health. This marks the third approval in the Middle East region in 2021, joining prior market approvals in both Israel and the United Arab Emirates in March.
- Investigational New Drug ("IND") Applications filed for NURTEC ODT for the indications of chronic rhinosinusitis and temporomandibular disorder ("TMD") – In the first quarter of 2022, Biohaven received "Study May Proceed" communications from the FDA regarding the Company's proposed clinical trials for the use of NURTEC ODT in chronic rhinosinusitis and TMD. Both clinical trials are expected to commence in the first quarter of 2022.
- Reported positive topline results from pivotal Phase 3 trial of intranasal zavegepant for the acute treatment of migraine – In December 2021, the Company announced positive topline results from its pivotal Phase 3 trial of intranasal zavegepant for the acute treatment of migraine. The results of the study showed that zavegepant was statistically superior to placebo on the co-primary endpoints of pain freedom (
24% vs15% , p <.0001) and freedom from most bothersome symptom (40% vs31% , p = 0.0012) at 2 hours. Zavegepant was superior to placebo demonstrating pain relief as early as 15 minutes, with patients achieving return to normal function as early as 30 minutes after dosing (p < 0.006). The efficacy benefits of zavegepant were durable, including superiority versus placebo (p < 0.05) on: sustained pain freedom 2 to 24 hours; sustained pain freedom 2 to 48 hours; sustained pain relief 2 to 24 hours; and sustained pain relief 2 to 48 hours. Previously, the efficacy and safety of intranasal zavegepant were shown in a randomized controlled Phase 2/3 dose-ranging trial with a total of over 1,000 patients treated. Biohaven plans to file a New Drug Application ("NDA") for intranasal zavegepant with the U.S. FDA in the first half of 2022 and other countries thereafter. - Enrolled first patient in Phase 2/3 clinical trial of oral zavegepant for the preventive treatment of migraine – In March 2021, the Company enrolled the first patient in a Phase 2/3 clinical trial for the use of oral zavegepant for the preventive treatment of migraine. As a part of the previously announced funding agreement with Royalty Pharma to advance the development of zavegepant, Biohaven concurrently received a
$100.0 million milestone payment. The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial will enroll approximately 2,900 people with migraine and will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 100 mg and 200 mg doses of oral zavegepant. Topline results for the Phase 2/3 clinical trial is expected in the second half of 2022. Biohaven's zavegepant program also encompasses intranasal zavegepant as well as oral formulations of zavegepant for non-migraine indications.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), and also certain non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, Biohaven has provided non-GAAP adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share, adjusted to exclude the items below. Non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. However, Biohaven believes the presentation of non-GAAP adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, provides investors with a more meaningful understanding of ongoing operating performance. These measures exclude (i) non-cash share-based compensation, which is substantially dependent on changes in the market price of common shares, (ii) interest expense related to the accounting for our mandatorily redeemable preferred shares and liability related to sale of future royalties, which are in excess of the actual interest owed, (iii) changes in the fair value of derivative liability, which does not correlate to actual cash payment obligations in the relevant periods, (iv) gains or losses from equity method investment, which are non-cash and based on the financial results and valuation of another company that we did not manage or control, (v) collaboration and license upfront expenses, which the Company does not believe are normal, recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of amounts, and lack of predictability as to occurrence and/or timing, and (vi) non-routine accrued development milestone expenses.
Biohaven believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding Biohaven's results of operations. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with these non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of Biohaven's ongoing operating performance and are better able to compare Biohaven's performance between periods. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators Biohaven uses as a basis for evaluating performance, and planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation between these non-GAAP measures and the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided later in this press release.

About NURTEC ODT
NURTEC ODT (rimegepant) is the first and only calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist available in a quick-dissolve ODT formulation that is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura and the preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults. The activity of the neuropeptide CGRP is thought to play a causal role in migraine pathophysiology. NURTEC ODT is a CGRP receptor antagonist that works by reversibly blocking CGRP receptors, thereby inhibiting the biologic activity of the CGRP neuropeptide. The recommended dose of NURTEC ODT is 75 mg, taken as needed, up to once daily to treat or every other day to help prevent migraine attacks. For more information about NURTEC ODT, visit www.nurtec.com. The most common adverse reaction was nausea and abdominal pain/indigestion. Avoid concomitant administration of NURTEC ODT with strong inhibitors of CYP3A4, strong or moderate inducers of CYP3A or inhibitors of P-gp or BCRP. Avoid another dose of NURTEC ODT within 48 hours when it is administered with moderate inhibitors of CYP3A4.
