QLT ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER RESULTS FOR 2009
For Immediate Release April 28, 2009
VANCOUVER, CANADA—QLT Inc. (NASDAQ: QLTI; TSX: QLT) (“QLT” or the “Company”) today
reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009. Unless specified otherwise, all
amounts are in U.S. dollars and in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
“We are pleased to report another quarter of profitability, driven by our revenue streams from Visudyne®
and Eligard®,” said Bob Butchofsky, President and Chief Executive Officer of QLT. “Our main driver
this year however, continues to be our ophthalmology-focused clinical programs and we look forward to
sharing the results from our on-going Phase II punctal plug program in the third quarter. In addition, in
the second quarter we are anticipating 12-month results from our RADICAL Visudyne combination study
and the Novartis-sponsored MONTBLANC Visudyne combination study, which could help drive
Visudyne usage.”
2009 FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
Worldwide Product Sales
Visudyne sales for the first quarter were $27.8 million, a decrease of 23.9% from sales in the first quarter
of 2008. Sales in the U.S. were $8.7 million, down 6.1% from the prior-year first quarter, while sales
outside the U.S. were $19.0 million, down 30.0% from the prior year. The drop in Visudyne sales was
primarily due to the approval and reimbursement in Europe of alternative therapeutics for age-related
macular degeneration.
Worldwide Eligard sales in the first quarter were $58.6 million, an increase of 16.4% over the first quarter
of 2008. U.S. sales of $21.1 million were up 8.2% from last year’s first quarter, while sales outside the
U.S. increased 21.5% to $37.4 million.
QLT Revenues
For the first quarter, total revenue of $30.1 million was up 12.7% from the first quarter of 2008 due to the
increase in revenue related to Eligard. Revenue from Visudyne was $11.8 million in the quarter, down
only 1.1% from the prior-year first quarter despite the 23.9% drop in Visudyne sales, as QLT’s share of
profit from Visudyne sales was 30.3% compared to 21.5% a year ago. The increase in profitability
resulted because the reduction in Visudyne marketing and distribution expenses was greater than the drop
in top-line product sales. Revenue related to Eligard (royalty and product revenue combined) was $17.9
million, up 24.5% from the first quarter of 2008.
QLT Expenses
For the first quarter of 2009, Research and Development (R&D) expense was $5.9 million compared to
$8.0 million in the same period of 2008, while Selling General and Administrative (SG&A) expense was
$5.2 million, down from $7.2 million last year. Combined, spending of $11.1 million was down 27.1%
from last year as operating savings realized from the restructuring and streamlining efforts initiated in the
first quarter of 2008 more than offset higher spending related to our punctal plug program.
Page 1 of 7
2. Operating Income / Loss
Operating income for the first quarter was $5.5 million, compared to an operating loss of $8.9 million in
the prior-year first quarter. Last year’s first quarter loss was driven by a $7.6 million restructuring charge.
Excluding that charge, there was still a significant improvement in operating income year-over-year,
driven by lower operating expenses and higher revenue related to Eligard.
Earnings Per Share (EPS) / Loss Per Share
EPS of $0.02 in the first quarter compared to a loss per share of $0.14 in the prior-year quarter. The
improvement was driven by the restructuring charge in last year’s loss, as well as lower operating
expenses and higher revenue related to Eligard in the first quarter this year. The effective tax rate for the
quarter was high, and is expected to remain high throughout the year, since we are providing a valuation
allowance against the tax benefit of punctal plug development expenditures. The effective tax rate also
includes a provision for income taxes on the earnings of our QLT USA subsidiary, even though on a cash
basis loss carryforwards are expected to be available to offset a portion of its taxable income.
In the first quarter, non-GAAP EPS was $0.02, as licensing and milestone revenue, stock compensation
expense, litigation charges, a restructuring adjustment, and interest income related to a tax refund were
backed out of GAAP EPS. The full reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP EPS for the first quarter is
provided in Exhibit 1.
Cash and Short-Term Investments
The Company’s consolidated cash balance at March 31, 2009 consisted of $130.1 million of cash and
cash equivalents and $124.8 million of restricted cash. The restricted cash balance related to the bond
posted to stay the execution of the July 17, 2007 judgment in the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary
(“MEEI”) litigation. Subsequent to quarter-end, we completed payment of the judgment liability to MEEI,
totaling $127.1 million, which was funded from restricted cash plus $2.2 million of cash and cash
equivalents.

(1) The adjusted non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning under GAAP and are not comparable between companies. Management believes that
the adjusted non-GAAP financial measures are useful for the purpose of financial analysis. Management uses these measures internally to evaluate the Company's
operating performance before items that are considered by management to be outside of the Company's core operating results.
