Conference Call Scheduled for Today at 4:30 p.m. ET

RAMSEY, N.J. and BOCA RATON, Fla., May 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ADMA Biologics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADMA) (“ADMA” or the “Company”), an end-to-end commercial biopharmaceutical company dedicated to manufacturing, marketing, and developing specialty plasma-derived biologics, today announced its first quarter 2023 financial results and provided a business update.

“ADMA generated first-time Adjusted EBITDA profitability, totaling $2.5 million, during the first quarter of 2023. In addition to continued gross profit growth and realization of operating efficiencies, this breakthrough achievement was propelled by an impressive 96% year-over-year increase in total revenues, which reached $57 million in the quarter,” said Adam Grossman, President and Chief Executive Officer of ADMA. “Based on these results, we have increased our 2023 total revenue guidance, now expected to exceed $220 million, and we anticipate continuing to grow EBITDA from the newly established baseline throughout the remainder of 2023.”

Mr. Grossman continued, “With the recent reduction in interest expense resulting from the Hayfin credit amendment announced last week, as well as overall increased operating efficiencies, we believe an opportunity to accelerate net income profitability earlier than previously anticipated is now likely. Lastly, during the first quarter, we made progress in advancing new growth initiatives that could allow ADMA to potentially exceed 2024 and 2025 financial targets, setting the foundation for a highly profitable growth cycle over the near and longer term. We look forward to building on the momentum of early 2023 to drive further success.”

2023 Milestones & Objectives:

  • Accelerated Adjusted EBITDA Profitability. Driven by 96% year-over-year revenue growth, which reached $57 million during the first quarter, and the resulting operating efficiencies, ADMA achieved first-time Adjusted EBITDA profitability, totaling $2.5 million and ahead of the forecasted timeline. The Company anticipates maintaining this momentum throughout the remainder of 2023 by focusing on increasing gross profits, managing expenses, and building on the newly established Adjusted EBITDA baseline.
  • Lowered Cost of Capital. The Company's financial position has been strengthened by its recent credit amendment with Hayfin Capital Management (“Hayfin”), which reduced its interest rate and increased prepayment flexibility. The amendment includes several favorable changes that are expected to benefit the Company and its stockholders. In addition to the 1% reduction in the nominal interest rate, the amendment allows for a newly structured 50% waiver of the prepayment fee upon an acquisition of the Company, among other scenarios further detailed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 2, 2023. These changes are expected to provide the Company with greater financial flexibility and support as it explores value-creating opportunities for its stockholders.
  • Advanced Growth Initiatives. During the first quarter, the Company made progress advancing its recently identified growth opportunities. These initiatives may provide an opportunity to accelerate net income profitability earlier than previously provided without requiring significant additional resources.
    • Expanded ASCENIV Production Scale: ADMA successfully commenced manufacturing of ASCENIV at the 4,400 Liter production scale for the first time in corporate history. We expect that this expansion will meaningfully improve the product’s margin profile and increase plant production capacity as fewer batches will be needed to support revenue goals. We believe these benefits could be realized as early as the second half of 2023.
    • Yield Enhancement Opportunities: The Company progressed development scale and laboratory analyses to advance its initiative aiming to capture additional Immunoglobulin production yields, which could significantly increase both peak revenues as well as margin potential, if successful.
    • Label Expansion: The post-marketing clinical studies have progressed as planned, and if successful, may provide for label expansion opportunities for both BIVIGAM and ASCENIV to include pediatric-aged primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI) patients as well as additional publications supporting product safety.
  • Legacy Lower Margin BIVIGAM Inventory Depleted. As previously communicated, an appreciable portion of the BIVIGAM product revenues during the first quarter of 2023 were attributable to the lower margin, legacy product. The accelerated monetization of the product was enabled by record product demand and channel pull-through. As a result, ADMA anticipates material BIVIGAM gross margin expansion over the coming quarters.
  • On-Track BioCenters Expansion. The Company’s BioCenters segment now has eight U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-licensed collection centers with two additional centers operational and collecting plasma pending FDA licensure. The Company remains on track to have all ten BioCenters FDA-licensed by year-end 2023 and, in the same period, forecasts raw material plasma supply self-sufficiency. ADMA anticipates its strong plasma supply position will support its upwardly revised production and revenue forecasts.
  • Product Mix Continues to Favorably Evolve. ASCENIV’s prescriber and patient base continued to expand during the first quarter of 2023, which drove record utilization and pull-through for the product. ADMA currently expects the product’s rapid growth will continue throughout 2023 and beyond.
  • Ongoing Strategic Review. ADMA continues to evaluate a variety of strategic alternatives through its ongoing engagement with Morgan Stanley. The exploration of value-creating opportunities remains a top corporate priority for ADMA.

2023 & Long-Term Financial Guidance:

  • 2023 Financial Guidance: ADMA now anticipates full year 2023 total revenues to exceed $220 million. From the newly established $2.5 million Adjusted EBITDA base, ADMA anticipates continued growth in Adjusted EBITDA profitability over the course of 2023. While the guidance framework considers several macroeconomic uncertainties, should ADMA’s current demand trends and margin dynamics sustain, accelerated net income profitability timelines may be achievable.
  • 2024-2025 Financial Guidance: The Company anticipates generating approximately $250 million or more in topline revenue in 2024, and approximately $300 million or more thereafter. At these revenue levels, ADMA forecasts achieving corporate gross margins in the range of 40-50% and net income margins in the range of 20-30%. These assumptions translate to potential annual gross profit and net income in the range of $100-150 million and $50-100 million, respectively, during the 2024-2025 time period and beyond.  

First Quarter 2023 Financial Results:

Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $56.9 million, as compared to $29.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $27.8 million, or approximately 96%. The increase is due to increased sales of our immunoglobulin products, primarily ASCENIV and BIVIGAM, as we continue to experience increased physician, payer and patient acceptance and utilization of ASCENIV and expand our customer base for BIVIGAM. We also benefitted from an increase in sales of normal source plasma through ADMA BioCenters of $4.0 million as we fulfilled our long-term plasma commitment for 2023 with our third-party customer.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2023 was $16.5 million, translating to a 29.0% gross margin, as compared to $3.7 million, or a 12.6% gross margin, for the same period of a year ago. This gross profit improvement of approximately $13.0 million was primarily driven by the revenue increases and the reduction in other manufacturing costs related to an extended, otherwise-routine plant shutdown in the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2023, ADMA sold a significant amount of the remaining 2,200-liter scale, lower margin BIVIGAM product. Moving forward, production throughput and sales recognition is anticipated to be substantially confined to the higher margin 4,400-liter BIVIGAM product, along with ASCENIV.

Consolidated net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 was $6.8 million, as compared to $25.0 million for the first quarter of 2022. The $18.2 million decrease in net loss was mainly due to the narrowed operating loss of $14.0 million and the loss on extinguishment of debt of $6.7 million we recorded in the first quarter of 2022 in connection with the refinancing of our senior credit facility, partially offset by the increase in interest expense.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $14.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $2.5 million, as compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $11.7 million the same period of a year ago. The improvement is driven primarily by increased sales and gross profit and, to a lesser extent, lower total operating expenses in 2023.

At March 31, 2023, ADMA had working capital of $227.4 million, primarily consisting of $164.0 million of inventory, cash and cash equivalents of $69.2 million and $26.5 million of accounts receivable, partially offset by current liabilities of $36.7 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s financial performance. The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as key performance measures because we believe that they facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period that exclude potential differences driven by the impact of variations of non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, as well as, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, stock-based compensation or certain non-recurring items. The Company believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools used by our management and board of directors to assess our operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income/loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Please refer to the tables below for the reconciliation of GAAP measures to these non-GAAP measures for applicable periods.
