Item 8.01 Other Events.
     Subsequent to the issuance of Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation’s (“Medicis” or the “Company”) November 7, 2007 press release (the “Press Release”) announcing its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, it was determined after further consultation with specialists in our independent auditing firm that the previously reported non-refundable $10.0 million payment received in connection with the out-licensing of certain research and development projects in the third quarter of 2007 would more appropriately be reported as deferred revenue at September 30, 2007 under the guidance provided by EITF 00-21 “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”. Accordingly, the $10.0 million nonrefundable payment ($6.4 million after-tax) received from Medicis’ collaboration partner initially reflected as Contract Revenue in the Press Release will be reported as deferred revenue in its condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2007, and will be recognized as revenue in future periods. This revision will have no impact on the Non-GAAP revenue, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per share or Cash and Cash Equivalents previously reported in the Press Release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
     To the extent that the Company has provided non-GAAP financial information in this current report, it has done so in order to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its operational performance and to enhance its investors’ overall understanding of its core financial performance. Management measures the Company’s performance using non-GAAP financial measures such as those that are disclosed in this current report. This information facilitates management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical core operating results, comparisons to competitors’ core operating results

and is a basis for financial decision making. Management believes that Medicis’ investors benefit from seeing the Company’s results on the same basis as management, in addition to the GAAP presentation. In our view, the non-GAAP adjustments are informative to investors, allowing them to focus on the ongoing operations and the core results of Medicis’ business. Historically, Medicis has reported similar non-GAAP information to its investors and believes that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in the Company’s financial disclosures. This information is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, information prepared using GAAP in the United States. It excludes items, such as special charges for R&D, the impairment of long-lived assets, and litigation reserves that may have a material effect on the Company’s net income and diluted net income per common share calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company excludes such charges and the related tax benefits when analyzing its financial results as the items are distinguishable events and have no impact to the Company’s ongoing results of operations. Management believes that by viewing the Company’s results of operations excluding these charges, investors are given an indication of the ongoing results of the Company’s operations.
