Segment Reporting

Based on the way we organize our business, make decisions, allocate resources and assess performance, we have determined that Corcept has a single reportable segment – the discovery, development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products. Our Chief Executive Officer, Joseph K. Belanoff, M.D., is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), with ultimate responsibility for its activities and performance. He bases his decisions as CODM on regular reviews of our consolidated balance sheets (including cash, cash equivalents and investments and liabilities), statements of income (including revenue, expense and net income) and statements of cash flows, as well as regular reviews of expenses that are consistent with those disclosed in our consolidated statements of income.


We appreciate the time that you have taken to review our public filings. Please contact me if you have any further comments or need additional information with respect to the filing.

Thank you for your assistance.

 

Sincerely,
CORCEPT THERAPEUTICS INCORPORATED
