(Operator Instructions) As a reminder, this call is being recorded for replay purposes. I would like to turn the call over to Dr. Stephen A Hill, President and Chief Executive Officer. Please proceed.

Thank you, Sharlene. Good morning everyone and thank you for joining us. My name is Stephen Hill and I am the President and CEO of Targacept.

Thank you, Steve. Let me just quickly highlight our financial results for the first quarter of 2013. In the first quarter of 2013, we had a net loss of $8.1 million compared to net income of $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2012. The change is due principally to a decrease of $19.1 million in deferred revenue recognition, partially offset by a decrease in research and development expenses of $9.5 million. The decrease in research and development expenses was principally due to the conclusion of a Phase 3 program and workforce reductions in 2012. We ended the first quarter with a balance of approximately $175 million of cash and investment. And now, we’d like to open up the call for your questions.

So, Sharlene, we’re ready to take any questions from the audience.

Certainly. (Operator Instructions). Your first question comes from the line of Alan Carr, Needham & Company. Please go ahead. Alan Carr – Needham & Company: Hi, thanks for taking my questions. Wonder if you could review the current arrangement with AstraZeneca, they have raised the 1446, but I’m wondering what other alpha4 beta2 compounds they might have and can you comment on what the latest is in terms of their plans for 1446?

Yeah and unfortunately it’s not – there is no publically available information with regards to AZ’s plans. 1446 is a compound that they’ve licensed from us. As you know, recently we changed the terms of the agreement with AstraZeneca to broaden the field or scope of the areas in which they can take that compound. So, they have some internal ideas or particular indications in which they want to study that compound. But to date, they have not made those plans public. With regards to other compounds as part of that collaboration, maybe I could ask Alan to comment on that.

Yeah. We’ve had over the course of the four-year funded research collaboration developed several alpha4 beta2 compounds, that met the established criteria. 1446 is the lead, but there are others behind that that, they have the rights to. But those are in the pre-clinical stages. Alan Carr – Needham & Company: Okay. And then any other NNR programs that we should be watching I guess competitively in CNS other than what’s at in DIVO?

Well, there are a number of companies who have and have had in the past alpha7 programs for schizophrenia and Alzheimer’s. There is less information publically available about those. AbbVie certainly have communicated that they have an alpha7 program underway in Phase 2b, that they anticipate presenting some data this year. And I think indeed have suggested they will be going into Phase 3 next year, and we are aware of a number of other pharmaceutical companies that have their own internal alpha7 programs, but no data has been forthcoming to date from those. Alan Carr – Needham & Company: Okay, great. And then the last one is around 5619, the Phase 2b trial there. Can – it’s in U.S. and Europe or – now the recruitment is done, can you give us a sense of breakdown between patients in U.S. versus Europe?

Sure. This is David Hosford, hi Alan. We have gotten 20% to 25% of the subjects from the U.S. and the remainder from Eastern Europe and those countries in Eastern Europe are Russia, Ukraine, Serbia, Hungary and Romania. Alan Carr – Needham & Company: Okay, great. Thanks very much.

Thank you.

Thank you for your questions. (Operator Instructions) We do have another question and it’s from the line of Jon LeCroy, MKM. Please go ahead. Jon LeCroy – MKM: Hi, thanks for taking my call. I was just wondering if you could update your financial guidance. It looks like – I think the last time you guided for $2.4 million in revenue recognition, you came already above that. So, any update there? And then also for your spending assumptions and maybe cash window, are you still – do you still have sufficient cash to go through 2015?

Hey Jon. Sure, I’m happy to update the guidance for you. Yes, we ended up reporting the $3.5 million of revenue in the first quarter. And that was the result of the restructuring of the AstraZeneca arrangement that we took into revenue, all the remaining deferred revenue relative to TC-1734 or 3480. So that concluded the revenue recognition from there. The base assumption had been having that recognized over a longer period of time. In the case of the operating expenses and the cash runway, we continued to be consistent with the guidance that we gave earlier. We expect operating expenses to be in the range of $48 million to $54 million. We expect to have year-end cash of at least $135 million and we continue to expect that we’ll have sufficient cash to operate the company at least through 2015. Jon LeCroy – MKM: Okay. Thanks.

Thank you. And now I’d like to turn the call back over to Dr. Stephen A. Hill for closing remarks.

Okay. So, once again, thank you to all of our audience for dialing and listening. We are excited by the way things are progressing within the company and we look forward to updating you further as the year goes by. So thank you all and have a great day. Thank you, Sharlene.
