(NASDAQ: ABRX) today announced financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2004. FOURTH QUARTER 2004 FINANCIAL RESULTS For the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company reported net sales of $31.4 million, a 38.2% increase from net sales of $22.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily due to the Company's expanded product family. The Company also reported operating income of $8.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2004, a 135.6% increase compared to operating income of $3.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2003. These results included an increase in research and development expenses of $409,000, or 10.9%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2003. Diluted earnings per share increased to $0.32 for the fourth quarter of 2004 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.13 for the fourth quarter of 2003. Gross profit was $16.5 million for the quarter, an increase of 54.7%, compared to $10.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2003. The Company's gross profit margin was 52.5%, compared to 46.9% for the fourth quarter of 2003. Gross margin increased as a percentage of net sales for the quarter primarily as a result of selling newly-approved products at higher gross margins. Dollars invested in research and development expenses increased as a result of additional research and development conducted to further develop the Company's product pipeline and costs associated with partnering arrangements. Research and development expenses were 13.2% of net sales for the fourth quarter of 2004 versus 16.4% of net sales for the fourth quarter of 2003. The Company currently has six ANDAs pending approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") addressing a total market size of approximately $500 million. In addition, the Company has 18 projects currently under development addressing a total market size of approximately $2.6 billion. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $3.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2004 compared to $3.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2003. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 12.1% of net sales for the quarter compared to 14.5% of net sales for the fourth quarter of 2003. The increase of $508,000 was primarily attributable to increased administrative, selling and marketing expenses to support the Company's growth. Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2004 was $8.5 million, or 27.2% of net sales, versus $3.6 million, or 15.9% of net sales, for the fourth quarter of 2003. The operating income increase is attributable to increased sales and higher gross profit margins offset by the $917,000 increase in operating expenses. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2004 was 25.8% compared to an effective tax rate of 36.4% for the fourth quarter of 2003. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the recognition of $864,000 of additional deferred income tax benefits. The recognition of the additional deferred income tax benefits increased diluted earnings per share by $0.04. Net income applicable to common stockholders for the quarter was $6.2 million versus $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2003. Fully diluted earnings per share increased 146.2% to $0.32 for the fourth quarter of 2004 versus the $0.13 reported for the fourth quarter of 2003. FISCAL 2004 FINANCIAL RESULTS For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company reported net sales of $103.2 million, a 33.0% increase from net sales of $77.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Gross margin increased as a percentage of net sales primarily as a result of selling newly-approved products at higher gross margins. Research and development expenses increased by $4.0 million, or 35.8%, to $15.2 million for 2004 compared to $11.2 million for 2003. Research and development expenses were 14.8% of net sales for 2004 versus 14.5% of net sales for 2003. The Company received FDA approval for 16 new products during 2004. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $14.0 million for 2004 compared to $10.7 million for 2003. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 13.6% of net sales for 2004 compared to 13.8% of net sales for 2003. The increase of $3.3 million was primarily attributable to increased expenses for salaries and benefits necessary to support the Company's growth. Operating income for 2004 was $22.5 million, or 21.8% of net sales, versus $14.3 million, or 18.4% of net sales, for 2003. The operating income increase is attributable to increased sales and higher gross profit margins partially offset by the $7.3 million increase in operating expenses. The effective tax rate for 2004 was 33.6% compared to an effective tax rate of 38.9% for 2003. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the recognition of $864,000 of additional deferred income tax benefits.

Net income applicable to common stockholders for 2004 was $14.6 million compared to $8.2 million for 2003.
