J.P.Morgan North America Equity Research O2 June 2014 • Merck & Co., Inc. Pushing Ahead Aggressively in PD-1 Development We attended Merck's ASCO analyst meeting today where the company reviewed new data and development plans for its PD-1 (pembrolizumab). Overall, we increasingly see Merck playing a leadership role in the immuno-oncology space given its aggressive clinical development approach to pembro with compelling data seen thus far in melanoma (Yervoy-naive and refractory), NSCLC (I st-line and pre-treated), and head and neck cancer. Further, we expect pembro to be the first PD-1 to launch (post- Yervoy melanoma, admittedly small indication) with a PDUFA in October. • Merck confirms PD-I efficacy in IL PD-L1+ NSCLC with 47% irRC ORIL First data from Merck's phase lb study of pembrolizumab in IL NSCLC showed a 47% (21/45) ORR by irRC (26% based on RECIST) across all three doses, and we note that 80% of patients had at least some tumor shrinkage, suggesting a clear place for PD-1 in this patient population. Merck is initiating a phase III for pembro in front-line PD-L1+ NSCLC in September. We note that Bristol initiated a phase III study of nivo in PD-L1+ IL lung earlier this year. Pembro head & neck data supports move into phase III. Merck highlighted its head and neck data, which was highly encouraging in our view. The study, which enrolled PD-L I+ recurrent and metastatic head and neck cancer patients, showed an ORR of 20% (11156) and 51% of patients exhibiting at least some tumor shrinkage. There was preliminary evidence that even within this population, the highest PD- L1+ expressers showed a much higher response rate (45% RR (5/11) above cut- point and 11% RR (5/44) below cut-point). We note that even the response rate in lower PD-LI expressers is in line with Erbitux, the only targeted therapy approved for head and neck. Pembro shows 69% 1-year survival in advanced melanoma, nivo/combo comparisons remain difficult. Today Merck presented data from KEYNOTE-001, a very large phase lb study in which pembro showed a 69% I -year survival rate and an estimated 62% 18-month survival rate. One-year survival was 74% in patients without prior Yervoy treatment and 65% in Yerboy-experienced patients. This data appears at least as strong as and potentially stronger than nivo's monotherapy data, although we see a promising role for PD-I/CTLA-4 combo therapy in melanoma. • Several catalysts ahead for pembro. These include FDA action for the product on October 28, additional proof of concept data in further tumor types (i.e., bladder, triple negative breast, and gastric) later this year or in 2015 as well as a potential filing in NSCLC in 2015 (based on phase II/III study in 2/3L PD-L1+ patients).

CFA North America Equity Research (1-212) 622-5676 02 June 2010 J.P.Morgan Investment Thesis, Valuation and Risks Merck & Co., Inc. (Overweight: Price Target: $64.00) Investment Thesis Maintain Overweight rating. Ultimately, we believe Merck has fundamentally changed its approach to its business over the past year, and we see this increased focus translating into better performance for the company and the stock. We see MRK shares as well positioned for multiple expansion with the company offering healthy earnings growth (7% CAGR through 2020E), one of the lowest valuations (16x our 2014E EPS), and with several low-expectation pipeline updates over the next 12.18 months. Valuation Merck trades at 16x our 2014 EPS estimate of $3.44. This is a 10% discount to its US major pharma peers. Recall that the US major pharma group currently trades at a 12% premium to the 500 on 2014E PIE. Maintain Dec 2014 price target of $64. Our price target is based on a DCF methodology as we believe this best captures the overall value of these businesses. For our Merck DCF, we take the present value of cash flows within our forecast window and thereafter wind down the existing products business while including risk-adjusted contributions from pipeline assets. We use a 0% sector terminal growth rate and a WACC of 9.0% (above recent norms based on a higher equity risk premium given the litany of issues facing the sector over the next few years). This translates to a DCF value of $64. Risks to Rating and Price Target Risks to our Ovenveight rating and price target include I) another leg down in cholesterol sales, 2) failure to effectively manage the core Januvia/vaccines portfolio, and 3) setbacks to key pipeline assets. 2 EFTA00306884 - North America Equity Research 02 June 2014 Merck & Co., Inc.: Summary of Financials Inacne Statement - Anmial FY13A FY14E FY15E FY16E Income Statement Guarterly 1O14A 2014E 3014E 4014E Revenes 44.031 42,800 43,363 44.812 Revenes 10,284A 10.711 10,669 11,154 Cosi of products sold (11.332) (11,008) (11,058) (11.203) Cosi ol woducts sold (2,658)A (2,785) (2,721) (2,844) Gross profil 32,699 31,792 32,306 33.609 Gross pro0t 7,606A 7.926 7,949 8,310 SG8A (11,873) (11,172) (11,080) (11,060) SG8A (2,692)A (2,857) (2,697) (2,926) (7,124) (6,739) (6,571) (8.439) N (1,523)A (1,705) (1,701) (1,811) Operating income 13502 13,881 14,875 18,110 Operaling income 3,391A 3.365 3,551 3,573 Net intetet!
