<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;We have had a tremendous start to 2018 with continued strong demand for INGREZZA, positive Phase III uterine fibroids results announced by AbbVie, and
now have a well-defined path for a first half 2019 NDA for opicapone. One year into the commercial launch, INGREZZA&#146;s positive clinical impact is clear and we will be expanding our sales force by the fourth quarter to help more patients with
tardive dyskinesia,&#148; said Kevin Gorman, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Neurocrine Biosciences. &#147;In regards to our pipeline, together with AbbVie, we remain very confident in the NDA for elagolix in the treatment of
endometriosis-associated pain, with an FDA decision expected in the third quarter of this year. Finally, our clinical team remains focused on executing our CAH and Tourette syndrome programs with important data expected throughout 2018.&#148; </P>

product sales for INGREZZA of $71.1&nbsp;million for the first quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2018. No similar net product sales were reported for the comparable period of 2017. INGREZZA<I><SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top"> </SUP></I>was
made available for commercial distribution on May&nbsp;1, 2017. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the first quarter of 2018, the Company reported a net loss of $41.8&nbsp;million, or

(R&amp;D) expenses were $48.9&nbsp;million during the first quarter of 2018 compared to $51.9&nbsp;million for the first quarter of 2017.<B> </B>The decrease from the prior year is primarily due to a $30&nbsp;million payment in 2017 to BIAL &#150;
Portela&nbsp;&amp; CA, S.A. (BIAL) for the exclusive licensing of opicapone, partially offset by increased R&amp;D program activity spending, an approximately $8&nbsp;million <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-recurring</FONT> share-based
compensation charge, and a $10&nbsp;million event-based payment to BIAL resulting from the ability to file the opicapone New Drug Application (NDA) based on the existing clinical dataset. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company initiated a valbenazine Tourette syndrome study, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">T-Force</FONT> GOLD, in pediatric

moderate to severe Tourette syndrome over 12 weeks of treatment. The primary endpoint of this study is the change from baseline of the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale between placebo and active treatment groups at the end of week 12 with <FONT

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;27, 2017, AbbVie, in collaboration with Neurocrine, announced that the FDA had granted Priority Review to elagolix for the management of
endometriosis with associated pain. The FDA grants Priority Review to medicines that it determines have potential to provide significant improvements in the safety and effectiveness of the treatment of a serious disease. Priority Review shortens the
FDA review timeframe from ten months from acceptance of the NDA filing to six months. On April&nbsp;10, 2018, AbbVie announced that late in the elagolix NDA review cycle, it had submitted additional data to the FDA related to the impact of elagolix
on liver function. AbbVie was notified by the FDA that the submission of this data met the criteria for a major amendment which resulted in a three-month extension to the NDA review period; moving the PDUFA date into the third quarter of 2018. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">During the first quarter of 2018, AbbVie provided positive <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">top-line</FONT> efficacy data from two Phase III studies in women
with uterine fibroids. The ELARIS <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">UF-I&nbsp;and</FONT> <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">UF-II</FONT> studies of elagolix met all primary and ranked secondary endpoints at month six. These replicate Phase III studies
were randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials evaluating elagolix alone or in combination with <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">add-back</FONT> therapy in women with heavy uterine bleeding associated with uterine
fibroids. The studies enrolled approximately 400 subjects each for an initial <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">six-month</FONT> placebo-controlled dosing period. At the end of the six months of placebo-controlled evaluation, subjects were eligible
to enter an additional <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">six-month</FONT> safety extension study. The primary efficacy endpoint of the study was an assessment of the change in menstrual blood loss utilizing the alkaline hematin method comparing
baseline to month six. Additional secondary efficacy endpoints were evaluated including the change in fibroid volume and hemoglobin. Bone mineral density was assessed via dual-energy <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">x-ray</FONT> absorptiometry
(DEXA) scan at baseline, at the conclusion of dosing, and at six months post-dosing. Results from these studies will form the basis for an anticipated 2019 supplemental NDA submission to the FDA for the approval of elagolix in the treatment of
uterine fibroids. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Opicapone Update </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In February
2017, the Company entered into an exclusive licensing agreement with BIAL for the development and commercialization of opicapone in the United States and Canada. Opicapone is a once-daily, peripherally-acting, highly-selective <FONT

selective vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitor, is the first FDA approved product indicated for the treatment of adults with tardive dyskinesia, a condition associated with uncontrollable, abnormal and repetitive movements of the
trunk, extremities and/or face. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">INGREZZA is thought to work by reducing the amount of dopamine released in a region of the brain that controls movement
and motor function, helping to regulate nerve signaling in adults with tardive dyskinesia. VMAT2 is a protein in the brain that packages neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, for transport and release in presynaptic neurons. INGREZZA, developed in
Neurocrine&#146;s laboratories, is novel in that it selectively inhibits VMAT2 with no appreciable binding affinity for VMAT1, dopaminergic (including D2), serotonergic, adrenergic, histaminergic, or muscarinic receptors. Additionally, INGREZZA can
be taken for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia as one capsule, once-daily, together with psychiatric medications such as antipsychotics or antidepressants. </P>
