The directors' remuneration overview contains for each individual management board and supervisory board member two separate rows, whereby the first row sets out their cash remuneration, being the annual base salary, cash bonus and (if any) exceptional bonus, to enable the comparison with the average remuneration of employees on FTE basis, and the second row sets out their total remuneration, including equity-related remuneration such as granted SRs and vested RSUs.

(2)

The first row shows the cash remuneration of each management board member, being the annual base salary, cash bonus and (if any) exceptional bonus.

(3)

The second row shows the total remuneration of each management board member, including equity-based remuneration such as RSUs vested and subscription rights granted during the year. The value of the subscription rights is calculated by comparing the exercise price of the subscription right plan with the average share price as quoted on Euronext Brussels and Amsterdam during the respective financial year. For example, for financial year 2021 the exercise price of the Subscription Right Plan 2021 BE is compared with the average share price as quoted on Euronext Brussels and Amsterdam during the financial year 2021.

R&D expenditure of our continuing operations presented in our consolidated financial statement were €523,667 thousands for the financial year ended 31 December 2020, €420,090 thousands for the financial year ended 31 December 2019 and €316,222 thousands for the financial year ended 31 December 2018.

(12)

Cash position on 31 December 2020 included €7,884 thousands of cash held in Fidelta and classified as assets held for sale in our 2020 consolidated financial statements.

(13)

The number of employees per 31 December includes employees and insourced personnel (external contractors). At 31 December 2020, the number of employees included 185 employees of our fee for service activity Fidelta, which was sold to Selvita on 4 January 2021.

(14)

The average remuneration of employees is calculated on FTE basis, excluding trainees and internships, for employees employed for the full applicable financial year. It takes into account the employees' base salary, annual cash bonus and (if any) exceptional cash bonus during the respective financial year. During 2019, all Galapagos' employees received an exceptional bonus as a result of the Gilead transaction. Annual cash bonuses are included in the year upon which performance is based and not in the year in which they are paid. Due to the timing of the 2021 year-end process, the actual annual figures for employees had not been finalized by the date of this report. Therefore, 2021 annual bonus figures represent target figures multiplied by the applicable approved organizational bonus funding scores, being the company’s best estimate of actual bonus outcomes.
