NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

Note 1.  Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for presentation of interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements include all the normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.  Operating results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012. You should read these unaudited financial statements in combination with the other Notes in this section; “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” appearing in Item 2; and the Financial Statements, including the Notes to the Financial Statements, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

Note 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Lannett Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Lannett”), develop, manufacture, package, market, and distribute active pharmaceutical ingredients as well as pharmaceutical products sold under generic chemical names.  The Company manufactures solid oral dosage forms, including tablets and capsules, topical and oral solutions, and is pursuing partnerships and research contracts for the development and production of other dosage forms, including ophthalmic, nasal and parenterals products.

Use of Estimates –The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the operating parent company, Lannett Company, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, as well as the consolidation of Cody LCI Realty, LLC, a variable interest entity.  See Note 15 regarding the consolidation of this variable interest entity.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Foreign Currency Translation - The local currency is the functional currency of its foreign subsidiary. Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end currency exchange rate and revenues and expenses are translated at an average currency exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustment is recorded in a separate component of shareholders’ equity and changes to such are included in comprehensive income (loss). Exchange adjustments resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.

Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue when its products are shipped.  At this point, title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer and provisions for estimates, including rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, returns, chargebacks, and other potential adjustments are reasonably

determinable.  Accruals for these provisions are presented in the consolidated financial statements as rebates, chargebacks and returns payable and reductions to net sales. The change in the reserves for various sales adjustments may not be proportionally equal to the change in sales because of changes in both the product and the customer mix. Increased sales to wholesalers will generally require additional accruals as they are the primary recipient of chargebacks and rebates. Incentives offered to secure sales vary from product to product. Provisions for estimated rebates and promotional credits are estimated based upon contractual terms.  Provisions for other customer credits, such as price adjustments, returns, and chargebacks, require management to make subjective judgments on customer mix. Unlike branded innovator drug companies, Lannett does not use information about product levels in distribution channels from third-party sources, such as IMS and Wolters Kluwer, in estimating future returns and other credits. Lannett calculates a chargeback/rebate rate based on contractual terms with its customers and applies this rate to customer sales.  The only variable is customer mix, and this assumption is based on historical data and sales expectations.

Chargebacks – The provision for chargebacks is the most significant and complex estimate used in the recognition of revenue.  The Company sells its products directly to wholesale distributors, generic distributors, retail pharmacy chains, and mail-order pharmacies.  The Company also sells its products indirectly to independent pharmacies, managed care organizations, hospitals, nursing homes, and group purchasing organizations, collectively referred to as “indirect customers.”  Lannett enters into agreements with its indirect customers to establish pricing for certain products.  The indirect customers then independently select a wholesaler from which to actually purchase the products at these agreed-upon prices.  Lannett will provide credit to the wholesaler for the difference between the agreed-upon price with the indirect customer and the wholesaler’s invoice price if the price sold to the indirect customer is lower than the direct price to the wholesaler.  This credit is called a chargeback.  The provision for chargebacks is based on expected sell-through levels by the Company’s wholesale customers to the indirect customers and estimated wholesaler inventory levels.  As sales to the large wholesale customers, such as Cardinal Health, AmerisourceBergen, and McKesson increase, the reserve for chargebacks will also generally increase.  However, the size of the increase depends on the product mix and the amount of those sales that end up at indirect customers with which the Company has specific chargeback agreements.  The Company continually monitors the reserve for chargebacks and makes adjustments when management believes that expected chargebacks on actual sales may differ from actual chargeback reserves.

Rebates – Rebates are offered to the Company’s key chain drug store, distributor and wholesaler customers to promote customer loyalty and increase product sales.  These rebate programs provide customers with rebate credits upon attainment of pre-established volumes or attainment of net sales milestones for a specified period.  Other promotional programs are incentive programs offered to the customers. As a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”) enacted in the U.S. in March 2010, the Company participates in a new cost sharing program for certain Medicare Part D beneficiaries designed primarily for the sale of brand drugs and certain generic drugs if their FDA approval was granted under a New Drug Application (“NDA”) or 505(b) NDA versus an Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”). Because our drugs used for the treatment of thyroid deficiency and our Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution product were approved by the FDA as a 505(b)(2) NDA, they qualify as “branded” drugs for purposes of the PPACA.  Drugs purchased under this program during Medicare Part D coverage gap (commonly referred to as the “donut hole”) result in additional rebates.  At the time of shipment, the Company estimates reserves for rebates and other promotional credit programs based on the specific terms in each agreement.  The reserve for rebates increases as sales to certain wholesale and retail customers increase.  However, since these rebate programs are not identical for all customers, the size of the reserve will depend on the mix of customers that are eligible to receive rebates.

Returns – Consistent with industry practice, the Company has a product returns policy that allows customers to return product within a specified period prior to and subsequent to the product’s lot expiration date in exchange for a credit to be applied to future purchases.  The Company’s policy requires that the customer obtain pre-approval from the Company for any qualifying return.  The Company estimates its provision for returns based on

Table of Contents

historical experience, changes to business practices, and credit terms.  While such experience has allowed for reasonable estimations in the past, history may not always be an accurate indicator of future returns.  The Company continually monitors the provisions for returns and makes adjustments when management believes that actual product returns may differ from established reserves.  Generally, the reserve for returns increases as net sales increase.  The reserve for returns is included in the rebates, chargebacks and returns payable account on the balance sheet.

Other Adjustments – Other adjustments consist primarily of price adjustments, also known as “shelf stock adjustments,” which are credits issued to reflect decreases in the selling prices of the Company’s products that customers have remaining in their inventories at the time of the price reduction.  Decreases in selling prices are discretionary decisions made by management to reflect competitive market conditions.  Amounts recorded for estimated shelf stock adjustments are based upon specified terms with direct customers, estimated declines in market prices, and estimates of inventory held by customers.  The Company regularly monitors these and other factors and evaluates the reserve as additional information becomes available.  Other adjustments are included in the rebates, chargebacks and returns payable account on the balance sheet.

The following tables identify the reserves for each major category of revenue allowance and a summary of the activity for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

For the six months ended December 31, 2011

The total reserve for chargebacks, rebates, returns and other adjustments increased from $13,564,395 at June 30, 2011 to $16,885,657 at December 31, 2011.  The increase in total reserves was mainly due to an increase in rebate reserves due to the additional rebate program the Company became obligated under Medicare Part D, as well as the timing of credits taken.  The increase in chargeback reserves related to sales to major wholesalers resulting in increased inventory levels at wholesaler distribution centers. The activity in the Other category for the six months ended December 31, 2011 includes shelf-stock, shipping, and other sales adjustments.

The Company ships its products to the warehouses of its wholesale and retail chain customers.  When the Company and a customer enter into an agreement for the supply of a product, the customer will generally continue to purchase the product, stock its warehouse(s), and resell the product to its own customers.  The Company’s customer will reorder the product as its warehouse is depleted.  The Company generally has no minimum size orders for its customers.  Additionally, most warehousing customers prefer not to stock excess inventory levels due to the additional carrying costs and inefficiencies created by holding excess inventory.  As such, the Company’s customers continually reorder the Company’s products.  It is common for the Company’s customers to order the same products on a monthly basis.  For generic pharmaceutical manufacturers, it is critical to ensure that customers’ warehouses are adequately stocked with its products.  This is important due to the fact that several generic competitors compete for the consumer demand for a given product.  Availability of inventory ensures that a manufacturer’s product is considered.  Otherwise, retail prescriptions would be filled with competitors’ products.  For this reason, the Company periodically offers incentives to its customers to purchase its products.  These incentives are generally up-front discounts off its standard prices at the beginning of a generic campaign launch for a newly-approved or newly-introduced product, or when a customer purchases a Lannett product for the first time.  Customers generally inform the Company that such purchases represent an estimate of expected resale for a period of time.  This period of time is generally up to three months.  The Company records this revenue, net of any discounts offered and accepted by its customers at the time of shipment.  The Company’s products generally have 24 months or 36 months of shelf-life at the time of manufacture.  The Company monitors its customers’ purchasing trends to attempt to identify any significant lapses in purchasing activity.  If the Company observes a lack of recent activity, inquiries will be made to such customer regarding the success of the customer’s resale efforts.  The Company attempts to minimize any potential return (or shelf life issues) by maintaining an active dialogue with the customers.

The products that the Company sells are generic versions of brand named drugs.  The consumer markets for such drugs are well-established markets with many years of historically-confirmed consumer demand.  Such consumer demand may be affected by several factors, including alternative treatments and costs.  However, the effects of changes in such consumer demand for the Company’s products, like generic products manufactured by other generic companies, are gradual in nature.  Any overall decrease in consumer demand for generic products generally occurs over an extended period of time.  This is because there are thousands of doctors, prescribers, third-party payers, institutional formularies and other buyers of drugs that must change prescribing habits and medicinal practices before such a decrease would affect a generic drug market.  If the historical data the Company uses and the assumptions management makes to calculate its estimates of future returns, chargebacks, and other credits do not accurately approximate future activity, its net sales, gross profit, net income and earnings per share could change.  However, management believes that these estimates are reasonable based upon historical experience and current conditions.

Cash and cash equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid securities purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.  Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist of certificates of deposit that are readily convertible to cash. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with several major financial institutions. Such amounts frequently exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits

Accounts Receivable - The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of current credit information. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within both the Company’s expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that it has in the past.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt obligations. The carrying values of these assets and liabilities approximate fair value based upon the short-term nature of these instruments.  The Company has estimated that the fair value of long-term debt associated with the 20 year mortgage on its land and building in Cody, Wyoming approximates its fair value.

Investment Securities - The Company’s investment securities consist of certificates of deposit, equity securities and marketable debt securities.  The Company’s certificates of deposit are classified as held-to-maturity, its equity securities are classified as trading and all of its marketable debt securities are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale and trading investment securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market

prices.  For trading investments, unrealized holding gains and losses are recorded on the consolidated statements of operations.  For available-for-sale investments, unrealized holding gains and losses are recorded, net of any tax effect, as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income.  No gains or losses on investment securities are realized until they are sold or a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary.  The Company reviews its investment securities and determines whether the investments are other-than-temporarily impaired. If the investments are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the investments are written down to their then current fair market value with a new cost basis being established.  There were no securities determined by management to be other-than-temporarily impaired during the six months ended December 31, 2011 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

Shipping and Handling Costs – The cost of shipping products to customers is recognized at the time the products are shipped, and is included in cost of sales.

Research and Development – Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred.

Other Assets - As of July 2010, Lannett stopped manufacturing and distributing Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution.  Lannett filed a 505(b)(2) New Drug Application (“MS NDA”) in February 2010 and received FDA approval on the submission in June 2011.  The filing fee related to this application totaled $1,405,500 and was initially recorded within other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets because part or all of this fee was thought to be refundable.  Lannett met with the FDA in January 2011 to review the status of the application.  At that time, the FDA stated that it will need to finalize and issue its Establishment Inspection Report for the February 2011 inspection of Lannett’s facilities before it could give final approval on the MS NDA.  Additionally, the Company corresponded with the FDA in March 2011 regarding whether any of the fee is refundable.  The FDA’s initial response was that all of the filing fee was not refundable, but the Company awaits a final decision from the FDA.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company received approval on the MS application, but it has not received final determination on whether any of the fee is refundable. The Company’s position is that the value related to the part of the fee that is not refunded is the cost of getting regulatory approval for its MS product and that this value should be properly recorded as an intangible asset based upon approval and amortized over the product’s estimated useful life upon shipment of the product.  The revenues and gross profit margins attained by the Company when it was previously selling its MS product currently substantiate its value as an intangible asset.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company has restarted shipments of the MS product, but it has not received final determination on whether any of the fee is refundable. As a result of the FDA approval of the MS NDA, an estimate of the nonrefundable amount totaling $398,400 determined based upon a third party analysis was reclassified to intangible assets upon shipment of the product which commenced in August 2011.

Intangible Assets – In March 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with Jerome Stevens Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (JSP) for the exclusive marketing and distribution rights in the United States to the current line of JSP products in exchange for four million (4,000,000) shares of the Company’s common stock.  As a result of the JSP agreement, the Company recorded an intangible asset for the exclusive marketing and distribution rights obtained from JSP.  The Company will incur annual amortization expense of approximately $1,785,000 for the JSP intangible asset over the remaining term of the agreement.

In April 2007, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire Cody Laboratories, Inc. (“Cody”) by purchasing all of the remaining shares of common stock of Cody. The consideration for the April 2007 acquisition was approximately $4,438,000, which represented the fair value of the tangible net assets acquired. The agreement also required Lannett to issue to the sellers up to 120,000 shares of unregistered common stock of the Company contingent upon the receipt of a license from a regulatory agency.  This license was subsequently received in July 2008 and triggered the payment of 105,000 shares (87.5% of the 120,000 shares to be issued as the Company already owned 12.5% of Cody) of Lannett stock to the former owners of Cody Labs, which was completed in October 2008.  Therefore, the Company recorded an intangible asset related

11

Table of Contents

to the acquisition of a drug import license in the original amount of $581,175 and recorded a corresponding deferred tax liability of approximately $150,700 due to the non-deductibility of the amortization for tax purposes.  The Company has assigned a 15 year life to this intangible asset based on average life cycles of Lannett products.

In January 2005, Lannett Holdings, Inc. entered into an agreement in which the Company purchased for $100,000 and future royalty payments the proprietary rights to manufacture and distribute a product for which Pharmeral, Inc. owned the ANDA.  In May 2008, the Company and Pharmeral waived their rights to any royalty payments on the sales of the drug by Lannett under Lannett’s current ownership structure.  Should Lannett undergo a change in control transaction with a third party, this royalty will be reinstated.  In Fiscal 2008, the Company obtained FDA approval to use these proprietary rights.  Accordingly, the Company originally capitalized these purchased product rights as an indefinite lived intangible asset and tested this asset for impairment at least on an annual basis.  During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2009, it was determined that this intangible asset no longer had an indefinite life.  No impairment existed because the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying amount on that date. Accordingly, the $100,000 carrying amount of this intangible asset is being amortized on a straight line basis prospectively over its 10 year remaining estimated useful life.

In August 2009, the Company acquired eight new ANDAs covering three separate product lines from another generic drug manufacturer for a purchase price of $500,000.  The Company began shipping one of these product lines in October 2010.  Accordingly, the Company allocated $325,000 of the purchase price to this product line, based on the relative fair market values of the acquired ANDAs, which is being amortized on a straight line basis over its 15 year estimated product life. It is expected that the Company will be able to produce one of the other product lines by the first half of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.  Since it has no current plans to manufacture the third product line acquired under these new ANDAs, the Company wrote off the purchase price that was allocated to that product line during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2011 which amounted to $26,000.  Amortization will begin on the remaining $149,000 when the Company starts shipping this product.

An intangible asset that is not subject to amortization shall be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.  An impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value, calculated using a discounted future cash flow method.  Our discounted cash flow models are highly reliant on various assumptions which are considered level 3 inputs, including estimates of future cash flow (including long-term growth rates), discount rate, and expectations about variations in the amount and timing of cash flows and the probability of achieving the estimated cash flows.  As of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, no impairment existed with respect to these non-amortized assets.

As of July 2010, Lannett stopped manufacturing and distributing Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution.  Lannett filed a MS NDA in February 2010 and received FDA approval on the submission in June 2011.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company has restarted shipments of the MS product, but it has not received final determination on whether any of the fee is refundable. As a result of the FDA approval of the MS NDA, an estimate of the nonrefundable amount totaling $398,400 determined based upon a third party analysis was reclassified to intangible assets upon shipment of the product which commenced in August 2011.  Amortization began upon shipment of the product in August 2011 over the products estimated 15 year remaining useful life.  Amortization will be adjusted prospectively once the nonrefundable amount is finalized.  See “Other Assets” above.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred amortization expense of approximately $470,000 and $473,000, respectively.  For the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred amortization expense of approximately $939,000 and $922,000, respectively.  As of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, accumulated amortization totaled approximately $12,272,000 and $11,334,000, respectively.

Future annual amortization expense consists of the following as of December 31, 2011:

The amounts above do not include the non-amortized product line covered by the ANDAs purchased in August 2009 for $149,000 as amortization will begin when the Company starts shipping this product.

Advertising Costs - The Company charges advertising costs to operations as incurred.  Advertising expense for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $18,000 and $20,000, respectively.

Income Taxes - The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse.  Deferred tax expense/(benefit) is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities.  The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position claimed on a tax return only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.  The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The authoritative standards issued by the FASB also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures.

Segment Information - The Company operates one business segment - generic pharmaceuticals; accordingly the Company has one reporting segment.  The Company aggregates its financial information for all products and reports as one operating segment.  The following table identifies the Company’s approximate net product sales by medical indication for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

Concentration of Market and Credit Risk - The following table identifies certain of the Company’s products, defined as generics containing the same active ingredient or combination of ingredients, which accounted for greater than 10% of net sales in either of the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The following table identifies certain of the Company’s customers which accounted for greater than 10% of net sales in either of the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

At December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, four customers accounted for 69% of the Company’s accounts receivable balances.  Credit terms are offered to customers based on evaluations of the customers’ financial condition. Generally, collateral is not required from customers.  Accounts receivable payment terms vary and are
