NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business and Going Concern

Arrowhead Research Corporation is a clinical stage targeted therapeutics company with development programs in oncology, obesity, and chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Our novel delivery technologies have the potential to enable revolutionary new classes of drugs, such as RNAi interference and peptide drug conjugates, for a broad range of unmet medical needs. Our pipeline of targeted therapeutics are designed to have increased effectiveness through guided delivery and decreased toxicity through reduction of side effects associated with unwanted exposure in healthy cells and tissues.

Liquidity

Arrowhead has historically financed its operations through the sale of securities of Arrowhead and its Subsidiaries. Development activities have required significant capital investment since the Company’s inception and we expect our current operations to continue to require cash investment in fiscal 2013 and beyond to continue development.

At December 31, 2012, the Company had $2.9 million in cash to fund operations. During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, the Company’s cash position decreased by $0.5 million. The Company received $3.3 million from the issuance of equity, net of fees. Cash collections from licensing revenue was $0.3 million. The company had cash outflow of $4.1 million related to its continuing operating activities.

In September 2011, the Company entered into an equity line facility whereby it has the ability to draw capital up to $15 million, subject to certain provisions, including maintaining a minimum stock price of $2.00 per share. During fiscal 2012, the Company drew $1 million from this facility. During fiscal 2013, the Company has not made any draws on this facility.

In December 2012, the Company sold 1.8 million units at a price of $2.26 per unit in a public offering. Each unit consisted of one share of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.5 share of Common Stock. The exercise price of these warrants is $2.12. Proceeds net of expenses from the offering were $3.9 million, which included a $500,000 promissory note due February 1, 2013.

In January 2013, the Company sold 1.7 million units at a price of $2.12 per unit in a public offering. Each unit consisted of one share of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.5 share of Common Stock, exercisable at $2.14. Proceeds net of expenses from the offering were $3.3 million.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $140 million. The Company has funded its activities to date almost exclusively from equity financings.

The Company plans to fund its development activities as cash resources allow. However, the company is dependent on additional equity financing and/or the signing of collaboration/partnership arrangements to supply cash for future development. The Company cannot be certain that such funding will be available on acceptable terms or available at all. To the extent that the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, its stockholders may experience significant dilution. If the Company is unable to raise funds when required or on acceptable terms, it may have to delay, scale back, or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more product candidates, or relinquish or otherwise dispose of rights to technologies, product candidates, or products that it would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize itself and possibly cease operations.

7

In addition to the normal risks associated with a new business venture, there can be no assurance that the Company’s research and development will be successfully completed or that any product will be approved or commercially viable. The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the biotechnology industry including, but not limited to, dependence on collaborative arrangements, development by the Company or its competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, and compliance with Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and other governmental regulations and approval requirements.

These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements were prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

Although the Company has sources of liquidity, as described above, the Company anticipates that further equity financings, and/or asset sales and license agreements will be necessary to continue to fund operations in the future.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The September 30, 2012 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. This financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Arrowhead and its wholly-owned and majority-owned Subsidiaries. Prior to April 2008, Arrowhead’s Subsidiaries included Insert Therapeutics, Inc. (“Insert”), which was merged with Calando in April 2008. The merged entity is majority-owned by Arrowhead and continues to operate under the name of Calando. Arrowhead sold its interests in Unidym and Tego in 2011 and 2009, respectively. Unidym and Tego results are included in the Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations. Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations also includes Aonex Technologies, Inc. (“Aonex”), sold in 2008 and Nanotechnica, Inc. (“Nanotechnica”), dissolved in 2005. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation, and noncontrolling interests are accounted for in the Company’s financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, which amended the guidance in ASU 2011-08 to simplify the testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill for impairment. ASU 2012-02 becomes effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning on or after September 15, 2012 and earlier adoption is permitted. We adopted this standard in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. We believe adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)—Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08), to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If after performing the qualitative assessment an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step goodwill impairment test is unnecessary. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. ASU 2011-08 is effective for us in fiscal 2013 and earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 is not anticipated to have any impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2011-04”), which amended ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”), providing a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement and expands the disclosure requirements. ASU 2011-04 was effective for us beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In June 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-17, Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition. This ASU codifies the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 08-9, “Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition.” The amendments to the Codification provide guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. Consideration that is contingent on achievement of a milestone in its entirety may be recognized as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved only if the milestone is judged to meet certain criteria to be considered substantive. Milestones should be considered substantive in their entirety and may not be bifurcated. An arrangement may contain both substantive and nonsubstantive milestones, and each milestone should be evaluated individually to determine if it is substantive. This guidance was adopted effective October 1, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS

Roche Madison

On October 21, 2011, the Company entered into a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “RNAi Purchase Agreement”) with Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. and F Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd (collectively, “Roche”), pursuant to which the Company purchased from Roche (i) all of the outstanding common stock of Roche Madison Inc. (“Roche Madison”) and (ii) the intellectual property rights then held by Roche related to its RNAi business and identified in the RNAi Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”). In consideration for the purchase of Roche Madison and the Roche RNAi assets, the Company issued to Roche a promissory note with a principal value of $50,000 and 901,702 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for the 1-for-10 reverse stock split on November 17, 2011). Subsequently, pursuant to the RNAi Purchase Agreement, the Company issued an additional 239,894 shares of Common Stock. The acquisition provided additional technology, particularly related to RNAi delivery, and provided a state-of-the-art lab facility.

Pursuant to the RNAi Purchase Agreement, Roche has a right of first negotiation on certain product candidates developed by the Company and its affiliates relating to the purchased assets. If the Company proposes to out-license or enters into substantive negotiations to out-license, any Clinical Candidate or Existing Candidate (as such terms are defined in the RNAi Purchase Agreement), the Company must give notice of the Candidate it proposes to out-license and negotiate exclusively and in good faith with Roche for 90 days regarding the applicable out-license. This right of first negotiation applies to all Existing Candidates (as defined in the RNAi Purchase Agreement) and the first five Clinical Candidates for which the Company delivers notice to Roche and subsequently enters into an out-license.

In addition to the consideration paid by the Company as per the closing terms, the Company is obligated to make certain royalty and milestone payments to Roche upon the occurrence of certain events. For certain product candidates that are developed by the Company or its affiliates and that are covered by a valid claim by the patent rights transferred in the Transaction for which the Company and Roche do not enter into a licensing arrangement, the Company will be obligated to pay a 3% royalty on Net Sales (as defined in the RNAi Purchase Agreement), provided that the royalty rate may be reduced or offset in certain circumstances. The

9

obligation to pay royalties on such candidates will last until the later of (i) the expiration of the last to expire patent right related to such product candidate that was transferred in the Transaction and (ii) ten years after the first commercial sale of such product candidate.

The Company will also be obligated to make cash payments to Roche upon the achievement of various milestones, including the first regulatory approval of an Existing Candidate in certain jurisdictions and upon certain annual sales milestones for Existing Candidates that may receive regulatory approval. The potential payments range from $2,500,000 to $6,000,000 per milestone. Based on the Company’s estimate of future payments, a net present value of $84,935 was calculated as contingent consideration, and is recorded as a part of other noncurrent liabilities.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition:

Current assets |  | $ | 432,709 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 7,215,206 |
Intangible assets |  |  | 1,174,935 |
Other noncurrent assets |  |  | 6,264 |
Current liabilities |  |  | (414,122 | )
Noncurrent liabilities |  |  | (1,570,072 | )
Gain on purchase |  |  | (1,576,106 | )
Total purchase consideration |  | $ | 5,268,814 |

The purchase consideration was composed of the following:

Promissory note due Roche |  | $ | 50,000 |
Contingent consideration |  |  | 84,935 |
Shares issued to Roche |  |  | 5,133,879 |
Total purchase consideration |  | $ | 5,268,814 |

We estimated the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired through various valuation techniques including a market approach and an income approach. Because the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities were in excess of the purchase price, a gain on the purchase of $1.6 million was recorded. The most significant assets capitalized were research equipment and certain in-process research and development. We believe that we were able to acquire these assets at a reasonable purchase price and generate a gain on the transaction due in part from the seller’s desire to exit the relatively early stage of the RNAi business, as compared to the seller’s other business operations, as well as the seller’s desire to dispose of certain on-going costs associated with the facility, primarily lease costs and personnel costs, which were synergistic to the Company’s strategy to establish a research facility to advance development efforts for its drug product candidates.

Alvos Therapeutics

On April 5, 2012, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Alvos Therapeutics, Inc., (“Alvos”), a privately held company that licensed a large platform of proprietary human-derived Homing Peptides, and the method for their discovery, from MD Anderson Cancer Center. In conjunction with the acquisition, Arrowhead hired one employee from Alvos, and retained one employee on a consulting basis. In exchange for all of the outstanding shares of Alvos, Arrowhead issued an upfront payment of 315,457 shares of Common Stock. The former Alvos stockholders are also eligible to receive additional issuances of stock valued at up to $23.5 million at the time of issuance based on the future achievement of clinical, regulatory and sales milestones. Based on the Company’s estimate of future payments, a net present value of $88,686 was calculated as contingent consideration, and is recorded as a part of other noncurrent liabilities. The Alvos acquisition provided key technology in targeted therapeutics.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition:

Current assets |  | $ | 29,332 |
In-process R&D |  |  | 2,172,387 |
Current liabilities |  |  | (113,033 | )
Total purchase consideration |  | $ | 2,088,686 |

The purchase consideration was comprised of shares of Arrowhead Common Stock issued to the former shareholders of Alvos Therapeutics, Inc.

10

Shares issued |  |  | 315,457 |
Price per share |  | $ | 6.34 |
Share consideration |  | $ | 2,000,000 |
Contingent consideration |  |  | 88,686 |
Total purchase consideration |  | $ | 2,088,686 |

NOTE 3. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consist of in-process research and development (IPR&D) not subject to amortization, and patents and other intangible assets subject to amortization, which were capitalized as a part of a business combination.

IPR&D represents projects that have not yet received regulatory approval and are required to be classified as indefinite assets until the successful completion or the abandonment of the associated R&D efforts. Accordingly, during the development period after the date of acquisition, these assets will not be amortized until approval is obtained in one or more jurisdictions which, individually or combined, are expected to generate a significant portion of the total revenue expected to be earned by an IPR&D project. At that time, we will determine the useful life of the asset, reclassify the asset out of IPR&D and begin amortization. If the associated R&D effort is abandoned the related IPR&D assets will likely be written off and we would record an impairment loss.

Intangible assets subject to amortization include license agreements and patents capitalized as part of a business combination.

The license agreements are being amortized over the estimated life remaining at the time of acquisition which was 4 years. Patents are amortized over a period of three years to twenty years. The weighted average original amortization period is twelve years. Amortization of license agreements and patents is expected to be approximately $222,000 for the balance of fiscal year 2013, and $300,000 for fiscal years 2014, and 2015, $250,000 in 2016, $240,000 in 2017 and $280,000 thereafter.

We review amounts capitalized as in-process research and development for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. In the event the carrying value of the assets is not expected to be recovered, the assets are written down to their estimated fair values. We continue to test our indefinite-lived IPR&D assets for potential impairment until the projects are completed or abandoned.

The below table provides details on our intangible asset balances:

|  | Intangible assets not subject to amortization |  |  | Intangible assets subject to amortization |  |  | Total Intangible assets |

Additionally, the Company filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares that may be issued to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. On January 30, 2012, the SEC declared the registration statement effective for the resale of such shares. The Company has the right, in its sole discretion, over a 36-month period to sell up to $15 million of Common Stock (subject to certain limitations) to LPC, depending on certain conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had drawn $1 million from the facility.

On October 21, 2011 and October 24, 2011, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with certain accredited investors (the “Series A Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 1,015 shares of Series A Preferred Convertible Stock, $0.001 par value per share, at a purchase price of $1,000 per share.

NOTE 9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Arrowhead has two plans that provide for equity-based compensation. Under the 2000 Stock Option Plan, 153,200 shares of Arrowhead’s Common Stock are reserved for issuance upon exercise of non-qualified stock options. No further grants can be made

14

under the 2000 Stock Option Plan. Under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, 1,965,860 shares of Common Stock are reserved for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and performance unit/share awards by the Board of Directors to employees, consultants and others. As of December 31, 2012, there were options granted and outstanding to purchase 152,900 and 1,510,694 shares of Common Stock under the 2000 Stock Option Plan and the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, respectively, and 251,200 options outstanding that were issued outside of equity incentive plans, as inducement options to new employees hired in conjunction with the Company acquisition of its Madison research facility in October 2011.

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, 4,000 options were granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. All share and per share data in this footnote has been adjusted to reflect the 1 for 10 reverse stock split effected on November 17, 2011.

The following tables summarize information about stock options:

|  | Number of Options Outstanding |  |  | Weighted- Average Exercise Price Per Share |  |  | Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term |  |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value |
Balance At September 30, 2011 |  |  | 729,096 |  |  |  | 9.03 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Granted |  |  | 1,229,500 |  |  |  | 4.40 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Cancelled |  |  | (42,919 | ) |  |  | 11.77 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Exercised |  |  | 0 |  |  |  | 0 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Balance At December 31, 2012 |  |  | 1,914,794 |  |  | $ | 6.00 |  |  |  | 7.9 years |  |  | $ | — |
Exercisable At December 31, 2012 |  |  | 887,102 |  |  | $ | 7.61 |  |  |  | 7.2 years |  |  | $ | — |

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $395,674 and $251,878, respectively. There is no income tax benefit as the company is currently operating at a loss and an actual income tax benefit may not be realized. The loss creates a timing difference, resulting in a deferred tax asset, which is fully reserved by a valuation allowance.

The fair value of the options granted by Arrowhead during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is estimated at $6,023 and $1,392,584, respectively. The aggregate fair value of options granted by Calando during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is estimated at $0 and $33,690, respectively.

The intrinsic value of the options exercised during the three months ended December 31, 2011 was $0, there were no options exercised during the three months ended December 31, 2012.

As of December 31, 2012, the pre-tax compensation expense for all unvested stock options at Arrowhead in the amount of approximately $3,356,689 will be recognized in our results of operations over a weighted average period of 2.9 years. As of December 31, 2012, the pre-tax compensation expense for all unvested stock options at Calando in the amount of approximately $53,624 will be recognized in our results of operations over a weighted average period of 2.5 years.

The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which do not have vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The determination of the fair value of each stock option is affected by our stock price on the date of grant, as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. The assumptions used to value stock options are as follows:

|  | Three months ended December 31,
|  | 2012 |  | 2011
Dividend yield |  | — |  | —
Risk-free interest rate |  | 0.7% to 1.0% |  | 1.4% to 1.7%
Volatility |  | 69% |  | 100%
Expected life (in years) |  | 5.5 to 6.25 |  | 6.25
Weighted average grant date fair value per share of options granted |  | $1.51 |  | $3.71

The dividend yield is zero as the Company currently does not pay a dividend.

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury bond.

Volatility is estimated based on volatility average of the Company’s Common Stock price.

NOTE 10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS & DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the Company is required to provide disclosure and categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the assumptions (i.e., inputs) used in the valuation. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value while Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined as follows:

Level 1—Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices in markets that are not active for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3—Valuations are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The following table summarizes fair value measurements at December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

As part of the sale of proceeds from the sale of Unidym in January 2011, Arrowhead received a bond from Wisepower in the face amount of $2.5 million. The bond is convertible to Wisepower common stock at a price of $2.00 per share. The conversion feature is subject to derivative accounting as prescribed under ASC 815. Accordingly, the fair value of the conversion feature on the date of issuance was estimated using an option pricing model and recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as a derivative asset. The fair value of the conversion feature is estimated at the end of each reporting period and the change in the fair value of the conversion feature is recorded as a nonoperating gain/loss as change in value of derivatives in Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. A portion of the bond is owed to a third party, as such the company records a derivative asset for the entire conversion feature and records a derivative liability for the portion related to the third party. The original fair value of the derivative relating to the third party was $26,310; the fair value at September 30, 2012 was $10,645, and the fair value at December 31, 2012 was $0. The Company has concluded that there is no value in the conversion feature of the bond, and has reduced the value of the derivative asset to zero at December 31, 2012. The loss from the change in value of the derivative asset, net of the derivative liability, for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $239,605, and is reflected in the change in value of derivatives in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a loss from the change in fair value of the derivative asset of $250,250. The assumptions used in valuing the derivative asset were as follows:

As part of the equity financing on June 17, 2010, Arrowhead issued warrants to acquire up to 329,649 shares of Common Stock (the “2010 Warrants”), of which 322,150 warrants were outstanding at December 31, 2012, which contain a mechanism to adjust the strike price upon the issuance of certain dilutive equity securities. If during the term of the 2010 Warrants, the Company issues Common Stock at a price lower than the exercise price of the 2010 Warrants, the exercise price of the 2010 Warrants would be reduced to the amount equal to the issuance price of the Common Stock. Similarly, as part of a financing on December 12, 2012, Arrowhead issued warrants to acquire up to 912,543 shares of Common Stock (the “2012 Warrants”) which contain a mechanism to adjust the strike price upon the issuance of certain dilutive equity securities. If during the term of the 2012 Warrants, the Company issues Common Stock at a price lower than the exercise price of the 2012 Warrants, the exercise price of the 2012 Warrants would be reduced to the amount equal to the issuance price of the Common Stock.

As a result of these features, the 2010 Warrants and the 2012 Warrants are subject to derivative accounting as prescribed under ASC 815. Accordingly, the fair value of the Warrants on the date of issuance was estimated using an option pricing model and recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as a derivative liability. The fair value of the Warrants is estimated at the end of each reporting period and the change in the fair value of the Warrants is recorded as a nonoperating gain or loss in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a non-cash gain from the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $274,451. The assumptions used in valuing the derivative liabilities were as follows:

2010 Warrants |  | December 31, 2012 |  | September 30, 2012

In conjunction with the financing of Ablaris during the year ended September 30, 2011, Arrowhead sold exchange rights to certain investors whereby the investors have the right to exchange their shares of Ablaris for a prescribed number of shares of Arrowhead Common Stock based upon a predefined ratio. The exchange rights have a seven-year term. During the first year, the exchange right allows the holder to exchange one Ablaris share for 0.06 Arrowhead shares (as adjusted for a subsequent reverse stock split). This ratio declines to 0.04 in the second year, 0.03 in the third year and 0.02 in the fourth year. In the fifth year and beyond the exchange ratio is 0.01. Exchange rights for 675,000 Ablaris shares were sold during the year ended September 30, 2011, and remain outstanding. The exchange rights are subject to derivative accounting as prescribed under ASC 815. Accordingly, the fair value of the exchange rights on the date of issuance was estimated using an option pricing model and recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as a derivative liability. The fair value of the exchange rights is estimated at the end of each reporting period and the change in the fair value of the exchange rights is recorded as a nonoperating gain or loss in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a non-cash gain from the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $9,428. The assumptions used in valuing the derivative liability were as follows:

|  | December 31, 2012 |  | September 30, 2012

During the year ended September 30, 2012, contingent consideration was recorded upon the acquisitions of Roche Madison, Inc. and Alvos Therapeutics, Inc., totaling $173,621. The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligations is determined using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of contingent consideration obligations is based on a discounted cash flow model using a probability-weighted income approach. The measurement is based upon unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity based on our own assumptions and experience. Estimating timing to complete the development, and obtain approval of products is difficult, and there are inherent uncertainties in developing a product candidate, such as obtaining U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other regulatory approvals. In determining the probability of regulatory approval and commercial success, we utilize data regarding similar milestone events from several sources, including industry studies and our own experience. These fair value measurements represent Level 3 measurements as they are based on significant inputs not observable in the market. Significant judgment is employed in determining the appropriateness of these assumptions as of the acquisition date and for each subsequent period. Accordingly, changes in assumptions could have a material impact on the amount of contingent consideration expense we record in any given period. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations are recorded in our consolidated statement of operations. There were no changes in contingent consideration fair value.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s other financial instruments, which include accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s debt obligations approximates fair value based on market interest rates.

Overview

Arrowhead Research Corporation is a nanomedicine company developing innovative therapies at the interface of biology and nanoengineering to cure disease and improve human health. Arrowhead has one of the most advanced and broadest technology

19

platforms for therapeutics based on RNA interference (RNAi), including access to several different RNAi delivery systems and small interfering RNA (siRNA) structures in commercial development for RNAi therapeutics. This broad technology platform enables optimization of siRNA therapeutic candidates for delivery based on siRNA chemistry, tissue type, disease state, target gene and siRNA type and chemistry on a target-by-target basis. Through its acquisition of Alvos Therapeutics, Arrowhead has access to a large platform of proprietary human-derived homing peptides and the method for their discovery. These targeting peptide sequences can be linked to our siRNA delivery vehicles as well as to traditional small molecule drugs to preferentially shuttle them into target cells. Arrowhead is leveraging its in-house R&D expertise and capabilities, as well as a broad intellectual property portfolio for RNAi therapeutics, and RNAi and peptide delivery vehicles and targeting methods to seek development partnerships with other pharmaceutical and biotech companies committed to bringing RNAi therapeutics to market, as well as continuing the preclinical and clinical development of its own clinical candidates. Arrowhead’s non-RNAi development programs include a unique therapeutic candidate that shows promise in pre-clinical studies for the potential treatment of obesity and advanced bioactive materials for the regeneration of injured tissues.

Arrowhead’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Arrowhead Madison Inc., operates a lab facility in Madison, Wisconsin, supporting the company’s initiatives including the development of RNAi therapeutics. In addition to its wholly owned subsidiaries, Arrowhead Madison and Alvos Therapeutics, Arrowhead operates two majority owned subsidiaries, Calando, a leader in delivering small interfering RNAs for gene silencing, and Ablaris, an anti-obesity therapeutics company, and has minority investments in Nanotope, a regenerative medicine company and Leonardo, a multistage drug delivery company.

The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 225 South Lake Avenue, Suite 1050, Pasadena, California 91101, and its telephone number is (626) 304-3400.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a development stage company, Arrowhead has historically financed its operations through the sale of securities of Arrowhead and its subsidiaries. Research and development activities have required significant capital investment since the Company’s inception, and are expected to continue to require significant cash investment for the foreseeable future.

At December 31, 2012, the Company had cash on hand of approximately $2.9 million. Cash and cash equivalents decreased during the first three months of fiscal 2013 by $446,000 from $3.4 million at September 30, 2012.

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, cash used in operating activities was $3.8 million, which represents the on-going expenses for research and development activities, business development, and corporate overhead. Cash expenses were partially offset by cash received from revenues and other inflows of $0.3 million.

Cash provided by investing activities was $0.1 million, primarily related to proceeds from the disposition of fixed assets.

Cash provided by financing activities was $3.3 million, primarily related to cash received from the sale of Common Stock.

Recent Financing Activity:

On January 25, 2013, the Company sold 1.7 million units at a price of $2.12 per unit in a public offering. Each unit consisted of one share of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.5 share of Common Stock, exercisable at $2.14. Gross proceeds from the offering were $3.5 million; net proceeds were $3.3 million after deducting commissions and other offering expenses.

On December 6, 2012, the Company sold 1.8 million units at a price of $2.26 per unit in a public offering. Each unit consisted of one share of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.5 share of Common Stock. The exercise price of these warrants is $2.12. Gross proceeds from the offering were $4.1 million, including a $500,000 promissory note due February 1, 2013. Net proceeds were approximately $3.6 million after deducting commissions and other offering expenses.

On August 10, 2012, the Company sold 2.3 million units at a price of $2.76 per unit in a registered offering to institutional and individual investors. Each unit consisted of one share of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.75 share of Common Stock exercisable at $3.25 per share. Gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $6.2 million, with net proceeds of approximately $5.8 million after deducting commissions and other offering expenses.

On October 20, 2011, the Company and Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (“LPC”) entered into a $15 million purchase agreement, together with a registration rights agreement, whereby LPC agreed to purchase up to $15 million of Common Stock, subject to certain limitations, from time to time during the three-year term of the agreement. Additionally, the Company filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares that may be issued to LPC under the agreement. On January 30, 2012, the SEC declared the registration statement effective for the resale of such shares. The Company has the right, in its sole discretion, over a 36-month period to sell up to $15 million of Common Stock (subject to certain limitations) to LPC, depending on certain conditions as set forth in the agreement. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had drawn $1 million from the facility. The use of this facility requires a minimum share price of $2.00, as defined in the agreement.

20

Although the Company has sources of liquidity, as described above, the Company anticipates that further equity financings, and/or asset sales and license agreements will be necessary to continue to fund operations in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management makes certain judgments and uses certain estimates and assumptions when applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and base our estimates on historical experience and on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our experience and assumptions form the basis for our judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may vary from what we anticipate and different assumptions or estimates about the future could change our reported results. We believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to us, in that they are important to the portrayal of our consolidated financial statements and require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. For further information, see Note 1, Organization and Basis of Presentation, to our Consolidated Financial Statements which outlines our application of significant accounting policies and new accounting standards.

Stock Compensation Expense

We recognize stock-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes options pricing model, which requires us to make assumptions regarding certain variables including the risk-free interest rate, expected stock price volatility, and the expected life of the award. The assumptions used in calculating stock-based compensation expense represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties, and if factors change or the Company used different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Derivative Financial Instruments

During the normal course of business, and associated with certain equity financings, the Company may issue warrants or become party to other agreements which require the use of derivative accounting treatment under GAAP. The company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes. We account for derivatives under the provisions of ASC Topic 815, which generally requires that derivative assets and liabilities be measured at fair value each reporting period with changes in fair value reflected as a current period income or loss, unless the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting treatment. The valuation of such derivatives are made using option pricing models which require various assumptions, some of which may be subjective, including but not limited to the Company’s stock price, the expected life of the instrument, a risk-free interest rate, and expected stock price volatility. Subjective assumptions are estimated by management, but other reasonable assumptions could provide differing results.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from product sales are recorded when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title has passed and delivery has occurred, a price is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

We may generate revenue from technology licenses, collaborative research and development arrangements, research grants and product sales. Revenue under technology licenses and collaborative agreements typically consists of nonrefundable and/or guaranteed technology license fees, collaborative research funding, and various milestone and future product royalty or profit-sharing payments.

Revenue associated with research and development funding payments under collaborative agreements is recognized ratably over the relevant periods specified in the agreement, generally the research and development period. Revenue from up-front license fees, milestones and product royalties are recognized as earned based on the completion of the milestones and product sales, as defined in the respective agreements. Payments received in advance of recognition as revenue are recorded as deferred revenue.

Overview for the three months ended December 31, 2012

Based on the completion of vesting of a number of stock options during the second half of fiscal 2012, compensation expense related to those awards ended. This was mostly offset by additional options granted to new and existing employees in fiscal 2012.

The primary component of other income during the three months ended December 31, 2011, was a noncash gain recorded upon the acquisition of Roche Madison, Inc.
