Questcor Reports Third Quarter Financial Results
Date:10/25/2011

ANAHEIM, Calif., Oct. 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: QCOR) today reported record net sales of $59.8 million for its third quarter ended September 30, 2011, a 91% increase from $31.3 million in the year ago quarter.  Net income for the quarter was up 98% from the year ago quarter to $22.9 million or $0.35 per diluted share.

A 174% year-over-year increase in the number of paid H.P. Acthar® Gel (Acthar) prescriptions for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) exacerbations led to increased shipments of Acthar vials.  Paid Acthar prescriptions for the treatment of nephrotic syndrome (NS) increased to 60 during the quarter, up from 45 in the second quarter and eight in the third quarter of 2010.  In addition, at 112, paid Acthar prescriptions for the treatment of infantile spasms (IS) were at the highest quarterly level since the third quarter of 2008.

"Questcor's strategy to sell more Acthar continues to generate increasing net sales and earnings," said Don M. Bailey, President and CEO of Questcor.  "Our commercial organization is steadily expanding the number of neurologists, nephrologists, and child neurologists prescribing Acthar.  We believe Acthar has the potential to benefit many more MS, NS, IS and possibly lupus patients in the future."

"Our 77 person Specialty Sales Force continues to drive expanded usage of Acthar as second-line therapy for MS exacerbations, a key Acthar market," commented Steve Cartt, Executive Vice President and Chief Business Officer. "Furthermore, during the third quarter we completed the expansion of our Nephrology Sales Force from 5 to 28 representatives, with all new personnel being fully trained and making initial sales calls by October 1st.  Despite the inherent disruption involved with this expansion, paid nephrotic syndrome Acthar prescriptions increased duri
