Mylan Comments on Recent Media Speculation

PRESS RELEASE

POTTERS BAR, England, April 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Mylan N.V. (NASDAQ: MYL) today commented on recent media speculation.

Mylan Executive Chairman Robert J. Coury commented, "We note that there has been some media speculation with regard to a potential bid for Mylan by Teva and that this rumor has been circulating for some time. Although it has been company policy not to comment on such media speculation, given current circumstances, we believe it is appropriate to do so now.

Mylan is fully committed to its stand-alone strategy, including its proposal to acquire Perrigo, and today's speculation has no impact whatsoever on this strategy.

We have studied the potential combination of Mylan and Teva for some time and we believe it is clear that such a combination is without sound industrial logic or cultural fit. Further, there would be significant overlap in the companies' businesses and we believe that it is unlikely that any such combination could obtain anti-trust regulatory clearances.

Of course, should any party make an actual offer to acquire Mylan, the Board would carefully consider it in exercising its fiduciary duties in the best interests of the company, our stockholders and other stakeholders.

We do not intend to comment further on media speculation and will maintain our unwavering focus on executing on our business plan and concluding a successful transaction with Perrigo."
