Report for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012

Stockholm, 21 February 2013

Geoffrey  McDonough, CEO: "2012 was a year  of significant progress for Sobi. We
recorded  double  digit  growth  for  Kineret®  and  Orfadin®,  revitalized  our
distribution  partnerships  and  extended  our  ReFacto® manufacturing agreement
through  2020. We  made  significant  progress  with  our  pipeline and released
positive  top-line  data  for  both  of  our  long-lasting  clotting factors for
haemophilia in development with Biogen Idec, and with the approval of Kineret in
NOMID(1))  by the US FDA. Finally, we  have achieved our cost discipline targets
for  the year, and have executed on our strategy to improve the gross margin. At
the outset of 2013 we initiated an important partnership in the Partner Products
portfolio  with Valeant®/PharmaSwiss,  and we  have also  signed a collaboration
with Savient for the co-promotion of Kineret in the United States. Today we will
offer  an additional placement of  up to SEK 200 M  against our existing bond to
ensure that we can meet the opportunities presented by the pace and scale of our
Haemophilia programs."
