FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Compugen Ltd. Reports Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL  October 29, 2014  Compugen Ltd.�(NASDAQ: CGEN) today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine months ending September 30, 2014.

Dr. Anat Cohen-Dayag, Compugens President and CEO, stated, "During 2014 we were pleased to report continuing progress with respect to our early stage B7/CD28-like checkpoint based immuno-oncology programs. These promising results demonstrate potential first-in-class therapeutic opportunities for a number of our candidates in this extremely attractive area of cancer therapy. In addition, these and other reported achievements continue to demonstrate the impressive power and accuracy of our unique predictive discovery capabilities.

Dr. Anat Cohen-Dayag continued, We are also pleased to see the resulting diversity and number of potential commercial opportunities these achievements are providing for evaluation. Furthermore, the concurrent substantial increase in our financial resources has provided us with the financial strength required for their practical consideration.

Revenues for the third quarter of 2014 were $1.7 million, compared with $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2013. Net loss for the third quarter of 2014 was $5.4 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $4.7 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the comparable period in 2013.
Revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 were $5.8 million, compared with $1.8 million in the comparable period of 2013. The increase in revenues is attributable to the milestone payment and the relevant portion of the non-refundable upfront payment relating to the August 2013 collaboration and license agreement with Bayer HealthCare AG. Net loss for the nine-month period in 2014 was $9.6 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $11.2 million or $0.29 per diluted share in the same period of 2013.
As of September 30, 2014, cash and cash related accounts totaled $107.4 million, compared with $46.8 million at December 31, 2013. This increase resulted primarily from net proceeds of $67.0 million from the Company's underwritten public offering of ordinary shares completed in March 2014.
