EXHIBIT 99.1
$176 Million of Cash, No Debt
Cash Requirements in 2010 Under $5 Million
REMOXY® NDA Resubmission Still Anticipated Q4 2010
SAN MATEO, Calif., July 28, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pain Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq:PTIE), a biopharmaceutical company, today reported second quarter financial results. Net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was $0.8 million, or $0.02 per share, compared to net loss of $34,000, or $0.00 per share, for the second quarter of 2009. Pain Therapeutics had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $176.2 million, or about $4.14 cash per share, and no debt as of June 30, 2010.
Pain Therapeutics also updated financial guidance for the full year 2010. The Company now expects its net cash requirements for 2010 will be under $5 million, lowered from previous guidance of under $10 million. This decrease is due in part to a recently announced $5 million cash payment expected from King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (King) in July 2010.
"Our focus is to advance the pipeline and to stay cost efficient," said Remi Barbier, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pain Therapeutics. "This keeps us realistic about the present and optimistic about the future as we await the resubmission to the FDA of a New Drug Application for REMOXY by King later this year."
REMOXY
Pain Therapeutics remains committed to the regulatory success of REMOXY, our lead drug candidate. REMOXY is a strong painkiller with a unique formulation designed to reduce potential risks of unintended use. REMOXY and other abuse-resistant painkillers are being developed pursuant to a strategic alliance we have with King. We believe REMOXY represents the rare combination of a well-partnered, late-stage drug asset with a unique profile, and whose clinical efficacy has been substantially de-risked.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements: This press release contains forward-looking statements for purposes of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). Pain Therapeutics disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements, and claims the protection of the Safe Harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Act. Examples of such statements include, but are not limited to, any statements relating to the timing of King's resubmission of the NDA for REMOXY in Q4 2010; our net cash requirements for 2010; our expected receipt of payments under our collaboration with King, including the one-time $5 million payment with respect to the amendment of our collaboration with King, potential milestone payments and other revenues, and the benefits of our drug candidate REMOXY, including statements concerning its clinical efficacy. Such statements are based on management's current expectations, but actual results may differ materially due to various factors. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those risks and uncertainties relating to difficulties or delays in obtaining regulatory approval of our drug candidates, unexpected adverse side effects or inadequate therapeutic efficacy of our drug candidates (including the risk that current and past results of clinical trials are not necessarily indicative of future results of clinical trials), unanticipated additional research and development and other costs and the timing and receipt of funds from our commercial partner, potential disputes arising with our strategic partners, potential claims of violating the patent rights of third parties, the uncertainty of patent protection for our intellectual property or trade secrets, and the potential for abuse and misuse resistant pain medications to be developed by competitors and potential competitors. For further information regarding these and other risks related to our business, investors should consult our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
