ICOS Corporation (Nasdaq:ICOS) today released its financial results
for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and summarized recent
events. "ICOS is off to a strong start in 2006," stated Paul Clark,
ICOS Chairman and CEO. "Cialis continues to gain market share. In
March 2006, Cialis captured 25.8% share of U.S. total
prescriptions, an increase of 4.0 percentage points of share since
March 2005(1). In February 2006, Cialis held 34.0% aggregate market
share in Europe, Canada and Mexico, an increase of 4.7 percentage
points of share since February 2005(2)." Lilly ICOS(3) posted solid
profitability, in the 2006 first quarter, as a result of continued
sales growth and reduced selling, general and administrative
expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, Lilly ICOS
reported net income of $65.0 million, a $106.7 million improvement
compared to the net loss of $41.7 million reported for the 2005
first quarter. Worldwide sales of Cialis totaled $222.7 million
during the 2006 first quarter, a 48% increase compared to the first
quarter of 2005. 2006 first quarter sales of Cialis in North
America and Europe were $167.3 million, a 50% increase compared to
the same period in 2005, when it is estimated that U.S. wholesalers
reduced inventory levels by approximately $27 million. In February
2006, Cialis was the market share leader in eleven countries,
including France, where it has been the market leader for 14
consecutive months. In Portugal, Cialis became the market leader in
January 2006 and captured 41.4% share of tablets from wholesalers
to pharmacies in February 2006(4). Other countries where Cialis is
the market leader include Saudi Arabia, South Africa and Venezuela.
2006 First Quarter Financial Results ICOS' 2006 first quarter
adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure equal to reported net loss
before stock-based compensation expense) was $7.2 million ($0.11
per share)(5), compared to the net loss of $46.4 million ($0.73 per
share) reported for the 2005 first quarter. For the 2006 first
quarter, ICOS reported a net loss of $0.7 million ($0.01 per
share), compared to a proforma net loss of $54.1 million ($0.85 per
share) for the 2005 first quarter. ICOS adopted the new accounting
requirements related to expensing stock-based compensation (FAS
123R) beginning January 1, 2006. The accompanying Schedules 2, 4
and 5 include additional information regarding the impact of this
accounting change. Our 50% share of Lilly ICOS' earnings was $32.6
million in the first quarter of 2006, compared to equity in losses
of $20.7 million in the first quarter of 2005. The $53.3 million
improvement reflects growth in sales of Cialis around the world,
planned reductions in marketing and selling costs, and the impact
on Lilly ICOS of an approximate $27 million estimated aggregate
reduction of U.S. wholesaler inventories of Cialis during the 2005
first quarter. ICOS Corporation's total revenue was $18.7 million
in the first quarter of 2006, compared to $13.8 million in the
first quarter of 2005. Collaboration revenue from Lilly ICOS
totaled $15.0 million in the 2006 first quarter, compared to $10.4
million in the first quarter of 2005. The increase primarily
reflects incremental research and development activities performed
by ICOS personnel on behalf of Lilly ICOS and reimbursable costs
for 40 contract (non-employee) sales representatives retained to
promote Cialis in the U.S. beginning in January 2006. Total
operating expenses were $51.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2006, compared to proforma $47.2 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2005. Marketing and selling expenses were
$13.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared
to proforma $11.6 million for the three months ended March 31,
2005. The increase primarily reflects incremental costs for the
aforementioned contract sales representatives. At March 31, 2006,
we had cash, cash equivalents, investment securities and associated
interest receivable of $170.5 million. -0- *T (1) IMS National

Financial Guidance On February 7, 2006, ICOS stated that it
expected 2006 worldwide sales of Cialis between $860 million and
$900 million. ICOS now anticipates that 2006 worldwide sales of
Cialis will be near the upper end of that range. Based on this
revenue outlook, ICOS now expects Lilly ICOS' 2006 net income to be
near the upper end of the $210 million to $240 million range
previously communicated. Consistent with our improved outlook for
Lilly ICOS, ICOS now expects its 2006 net loss to be near the lower
end of the $5.0 million ($0.08 per share) to $25.0 million ($0.39
per share) net loss range previously communicated. ICOS
