Amarin Corporation plc (the “Company”) announced today its intention to share with investors at the 33rd Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference the amount of cash and cash equivalents it had on hand as of December 31, 2014.

The Company expects to announce its full results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014 by March 2, 2015.

The information in this report furnished pursuant to Items 2.02 and 7.01 shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. It may only be incorporated by reference in another filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if such subsequent filing specifically references the information furnished pursuant to Items 2.02 and 7.01 of this report.
