ENZON COMPLETES SALE OF SPECIALTY PHARMACEUTICAL BUSINESS
 
BRIDGEWATER, NJ – January 29, 2010 – Enzon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ENZN) ("Enzon") announced today that it has closed the sale of its specialty pharmaceutical business to the sigma-tau Group ("sigma-tau"). Enzon is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery and development of important medicines for patients with cancer and other life-threatening conditions.  Enzon's business now consists of its royalties, Peg SN38, LNA and PEG technology platforms.
 
 
The specialty pharmaceutical business sold to sigma-tau includes four marketed products, Oncaspar®, Adagen®, DepoCyt®, and Abelcet®, as well as the manufacturing facility in Indianapolis, Indiana.
 
 
At the closing, Enzon received $300 million in cash. Due to the availability of net operating loss carry forwards, taxes payable on the gain of the sale are not anticipated to be significant. The purchase price is subject to a customary post-closing working capital adjustment. In addition, Enzon may be entitled to an additional amount of up to $27 million based on the achievement of success milestones and royalties of 5 to 10 percent on incremental net sales above a 2009 baseline amount through 2014 in respect of the four marketed specialty pharmaceutical products sold.
 
 
"We are very pleased to complete this transaction with sigma-tau.  Enzon will now focus on its innovative pipeline and technology platforms”, said Alex Denner, Enzon's Chairman of the Board of Directors. “We will continue to evaluate options to return value to our shareholders."
 
 
A portion of the proceeds from the sale will be used to commence an offer to repurchase its outstanding 4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2013.
 
 
This announcement is for informational purposes only and is not an offer to buy, or the solicitation of an offer to sell, any of Enzon's 4% Convertible Notes due 2013 (the "Notes"). Enzon will announce further information on the details of the tender offer in the near future. The tender offer will be made solely by and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a Schedule TO (including the Offer to Purchase and related Letter of Transmittal) that will be filed by Enzon with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Schedule TO will contain important information, including complete instructions on how to tender Notes into the offer, and should be read carefully and in its entirety before any decision is made with respect to the offer. The Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal will be delivered to all holders of Notes. Once
 

 
 

 

 
the Schedule TO and Offer documents are filed with the SEC, they will be available free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Enzon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and give effect to (i) the sale (the "Asset Sale") of Enzon's specialty pharmaceuticals business ("Specialty Pharmaceuticals") to Klee Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Defiante Farmacêutica, S.A. (together, the "Purchasing Parties") pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), dated as of November 9, 2009, by and between the Purchasing Parties and Sigma-Tau Finanziaria S.p.A. (solely with respect to certain sections of the Asset Purchase Agreement), on the one hand, and Enzon, on the other hand, (ii) the receipt of the net proceeds from the Asset Sale and (iii) the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect Enzon’s continued ownership of its royalties and the research and development operations.
 
Pro forma financial information is intended to provide investors with information about the continuing impact of a transaction by showing how a specific transaction might have affected historical financial statements, illustrating the scope of the change in the historical financial position and results of operations. The adjustments made to historical information give effect to events that are directly attributable to the Asset Sale, factually supportable, and expected to have a continuing impact.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements consist of:
 
 
·
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2009;
     
 
·
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008; and
     
 
·
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared giving effect to the Asset Sale as if it occurred as of September 30, 2009 for the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and as of January 1, 2006 for the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Enzon’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are incorporated herein by reference.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes and are based upon information and assumptions available at the time of the filing of this Current Report of Form 8-K proxy statement.
 
Enzon did not account for Specialty Pharmaceuticals as, and it was not operated as, a separate, stand-alone entity, subsidiary or division for the periods presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not purport to represent, and are not necessarily indicative of, what Enzon's actual financial position and results of operations would have been had the Asset Sale occurred on the dates indicated. In addition, these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should not be considered to be fully indicative of Enzon's future financial performance. For example, actions that management may undertake to reduce overhead expenses in light of the Asset Sale are not reflected.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Pro forma information is intended to reflect the impact of the Asset Sale on Enzon’s historical financial position and results of operations through adjustments that are directly attributable to the Asset Sale, that are factually supportable and that are expected to have continuing impact. In order to accomplish this, Enzon eliminated the historical results of Specialty Pharmaceuticals from Enzon's historical financials. This represents the assets and liabilities that will be conveyed to the Purchasing Parties as a result of the Asset Sale. It also represents the results of operations of Enzon’s products and contract manufacturing segments as well as the research and development activities conducted by Enzon in support of Enzon's four U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved products: Oncaspar for the treatment of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia; Adagen for the treatment of severe combined immunodeficiency disease; Abelcet, an antifungal agent, and DepoCyt for treatment of lymphomatous meningitis (the "Products"). The Products were sold to the Purchasing Parties as part of the Asset Sale. Enzon further adjusted for (i) continuing research and development activities to be performed by Enzon on a contract basis and (ii) allocated general and administrative expenses.
 
These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the pro forma results of operations and financial position.
 
In the preparation of the pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2009, the assumption was made that the assets were sold and liabilities were assumed by the Purchasing Parties pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement on September 30, 2009. The assumption made for purposes of the statements of operations was that the Asset Sale took place on January 1, 2006.
 
(a)
Reflects estimated proceeds to be received at the closing of sale of Specialty Pharmaceuticals. The sale price is $300.0 million. Transaction-related costs and expenses amounting to an estimated $7.5 million – $8.5 million will be offset against the proceeds in calculating the accounting gain. The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma statements of operations do not reflect these expenses as they are nonrecurring in nature; however, these expenses will be reflected in Enzon's financial statements when the Asset Sale is consummated. Additionally, there is the potential for a working capital adjustment. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, if the working capital balance at the time of closing exceeds the target amount of working capital as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, then the purchase price will be adjusted upward in an amount equal to the excess, and if the working capital balance at the time of closing is less than the target amount, then the purchase price will be adjusted downward in an amount equal to the deficiency.
   
(b)
The excess of the net proceeds from the sale (the $300.0 million purchase price less transaction costs) over the net book value of the net assets being sold will be the overall measure of the gain to Enzon. The sale is expected to be accounted for in two parts: a sale of net assets of the discontinued operations and a sale of Enzon's in-process research and development related to ongoing development work on the Oncaspar and Adagen sourcing programs. The purchase price will be allocated between the net assets and the in-process research and development. At the closing of the Asset Sale, any excess of purchase price received by Enzon, less transaction expenses, over the book value of the assets sold will be recognized as a gain for financial accounting purposes. In subsequent reporting periods, Specialty Pharmaceuticals for current and prior periods, including the gain on the sale of the assets, will be presented as a discontinued operation for financial reporting purposes. The portion of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development will be recognized in earnings from continuing operations as earned in future periods along with related milestone payments payable pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, if any. While the final allocation of the sales price to the various components of the Asset Sale will not be completed until after the closing date, it is estimated that the amount that may be allocated to in-process research and development could approximate $40.0 million.
   
 
The pro forma disclosures do not take into account the allocation of the sales price nor the timing of earnings recognition. Furthermore, no income taxes are assumed to be payable on the Asset Sale due to the underlying tax basis of the assets being sold and the availability of net operating loss carryforwards. The Asset Sale is expected to be subject to nominal amounts of Federal alternative minimum tax and state income tax.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
 
(c)
The adjustment adds back the allocated corporate general and administrative expense that was included in the operating results of Specialty Pharmaceuticals. These expenses will continue to be recorded as an expense of the retained Enzon business in whole or in part. The actual effect on Enzon’s corporate overhead resulting from the Asset Sale cannot be objectively measured. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect actions that may have been taken by management subsequent to the Asset Sale to reduce costs nor do they reflect the cost structure that will exist in the future.
   
(d)
As part of a transition services agreement with the Purchasing Parties, Enzon will continue to provide research and development services to Defiante Farmacêutica, S.A. Costs to be incurred will be reimbursed to Enzon and Enzon will receive a mark-up on those costs at percentages provided for in the transition services agreement. The amount of the mark-up cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The duration of this contract research and development effort is anticipated to be between one and three years.
   
(e)
No income tax provisions have been made due either to current period operating losses or the utilization of deferred tax assets to offset taxes that would otherwise accrue to operating income.
 
The pro forma adjustments to the statements of operations do not include the following revenues, expenses and events:
 
 
·
milestone payments related to research and development efforts that may be received in the event of achievement of certain regulatory approvals;
     
 
·
royalty payments that Enzon would be entitled to receive upon the achievement of Product sales revenues through 2014 in excess of baseline sales levels as outlined in the Asset Purchase Agreement;
     
 
·
expense related to the vesting of unvested and unrecognized stock options and nonvested shares upon the closing of the Asset Sale (the estimated amount of the accelerated vesting is approximately $1.5 million);
     
 
·
expense related to the possible vesting of unvested and unrecognized stock options and nonvested shares held by Enzon’s executive officers under circumstances to be agreed upon by Enzon and such executive officers (the estimated amount of the possible accelerated vesting for such executive officers is approximately $4.6 million); and
     
 
·
potential uses of net proceeds from the Asset Sale, including repurchase of $0 to $250 million of Enzon's 4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2013.
