Highlight of Business Operations:

Dilutive common stock equivalents would include the dilutive effect of common stock options and warrants for common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents totaled approximately 8.5 million and 10.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were excluded from the diluted earnings per share denominator for all periods because of their anti-dilutive effect.

On July 17, 2012, we entered into the Expanded Collaboration Agreement with GSK pursuant to which we will continue to co-develop and commercialize with GSK, migalastat HCl, currently in Phase 3 development for the treatment of Fabry disease and we will commercialize all migalastat HCl products in the United States while GSK will commercialize all such products in the rest of the world. Due to a change in the accounting for revenue recognition for the Expanded Collaboration Agreement, all revenue recognition will be suspended until the total arrangement consideration becomes fixed and determinable. Any payments received from GSK will be recorded as deferred reimbursements on the balance sheet. In addition, future milestone payments we may pay GSK will be applied against the balance of this deferred reimbursements account. Revenue recognition would resume once the total arrangement consideration becomes fixed and determinable which would occur when the balance of the deferred reimbursements account is sufficient to cover all the remaining contingent milestone payments. As a result, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, we did not recognize any revenue related to Collaboration and Milestone Revenue or Research Revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded $1.7 million and $4.1 million of Collaboration and Milestone Revenue and Research Revenue, respectively. There is no cash effect of this change in accounting, and there is no scenario where Amicus would have to refund any of the upfront payment, milestone payments, or research reimbursement payments.
