FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This release contains both historical and forward-looking statements, including concerning the closing of the agreement to purchase Cook Pharmica and the

financing that Catalent intends to obtain to finance the initial purchase price. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities

Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified because they relate to the topics set forth above or by the use of statements that include

phrases such as believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, plan, project, foresee, likely, may, will,

would or other words or phrases with similar meanings. Similarly, statements that describe Catalent s objectives, plans or goals are, or may be, forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations of

future events. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from Catalent s expectations and projections. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to

differ include, but are not limited to, the following: antitrust or other regulatory actions that may delay or interfere with the closing of the acquisition or result in other changes to Catalent s business; other unanticipated events that may

prevent a closing of the acquisition or may make it more difficult to realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction; inability to complete the anticipated financing on the anticipated terms, or at all; participation in a highly competitive

market and increased competition may adversely affect the business of Catalent or of Cook Pharmica; demand for Catalent s or Cook Pharmica s offerings which depends in part on their customers research and development and the clinical

and market success of their products; product and other liability risks that could adversely affect the results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and cash flows of Catalent or Cook Pharmica; failure to comply with existing and future

regulatory requirements; failure to provide quality offerings to customers could have an adverse effect on the business and subject it to regulatory actions and costly litigation; problems providing the highly exacting and complex services or

support required; global economic, political, and regulatory risks to the operations of Catalent and Cook Pharmica; inability to enhance existing or introduce new technology or service offerings in a timely manner; inadequate patents, copyrights,

trademarks, and other forms of intellectual property protections; fluctuations in the costs, availability, and suitability of the components of the products Catalent and Cook Pharmica manufacture, including active pharmaceutical ingredients,

excipients, purchased components, and raw materials; changes in market access or healthcare reimbursement in the United States or internationally; fluctuations in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies including as a

result of the recent U.K. referendum to exit from the European Union; adverse tax legislation initiatives or challenges to Catalent s tax positions; loss of key personnel; risks generally associated with information systems; inability to

complete any future acquisitions and other transactions that may complement or expand the business of Catalent or divest of non-strategic businesses or assets and Catalent s ability to successfully integrate acquired business and realize

anticipated benefits of such acquisitions; offerings and customers products that may infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties; environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations, which could increase costs and restrict

operations; labor and employment laws and regulations; additional cash contributions required to fund Catalent s existing pension plans; substantial leverage resulting in the limited ability of Catalent to raise additional capital to fund

operations and react to changes in the economy or in the industry; exposure to interest rate risk to

the extent of Catalent s variable rate debt and preventing Catalent from meeting its obligations under its indebtedness. For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors, see the

information under the caption Risk Factors in Catalent s preliminary prospectus filed September 25, 2017 with the SEC and Catalent s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, filed August 28,
