  • Achieved fourth consecutive quarter of revenue growth with new high of $19.7 million, representing a 22.4% increase over the same period in 2022
  • Achieved $2.6 million in gross profit, representing a 425% increase over the same period in 2022
  • Continued to reduce expenses and improve earnings per share with focus on driving enhanced business performance
  • Entered into several new long-term supply, product purchase, and distribution agreements
  • Reiterates 2023 guidance of revenue between $78.0 million and $82.0 million and gross profit between $7.0 million and $9.0 million

Rockwell Medical, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: RMTI), a healthcare company that develops, manufactures, commercializes, and distributes a portfolio of hemodialysis products to dialysis providers worldwide, today announced financial and operational results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

"Last year, we presented a new strategy and business plan for Rockwell that focused on enhancing our revenue-generating businesses, pausing our capital-intensive businesses, improving our financial condition, de-levering the Company, and driving us to profitability in 2024," said Mark Strobeck, Ph.D., Rockwell Medical’s President and CEO. "Our results for the first quarter of 2023, and the announcements we've subsequently made in the second quarter, continue to demonstrate that we are making significant progress towards these goals and objectives. We are putting Rockwell in a better position to drive growth and further improve our performance so that we can benefit more patients around the world."

First Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights

  • Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $19.7 million, which represents a 22.4% increase over $16.1 million for the same period in 2022 and an increase over the fourth quarter of 2022.
  • Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $2.6 million, a 425% increase year-over-year compared with gross loss of $0.8 million for the same period in 2022.
  • Rockwell continued to reduce its operating expenses over the first quarter 2023 by focusing on enhanced business performance and more efficient manufacturing processes. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, operating loss was $1.4 million compared to $6.6 million for the same period in 2022 and an improvement over the fourth quarter of 2022.
  • For the three months ended March 31, 2023, Rockwell's net loss was $1.75 million, or $0.10* per share, compared with a net loss of $7.2 million, or $0.84 per share for the same period in 2022 and an improvement over the fourth quarter of 2022.
  • Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2023 was $16.8 million compared to cash and cash equivalents of $21.5 million at December 31, 2022. The variance was largely driven by fees associated with the reacquisition of Rockwell's distribution rights from Baxter, one-time severance payments, and fees associated with terminating a supply agreement.

First Quarter 2023 Operating Highlights

  • Effective January 1, 2023, Rockwell assumed 100% commercial responsibility for Baxter's customers which were previously serviced under the exclusive distribution agreement that was terminated subsequent to the acquisition of this business in the fourth quarter of 2022. Rockwell is actively working with customers to establish long-term supply agreements with optimal pricing and contractual minimums. The majority of Baxter customers have transitioned successfully over to the Rockwell platform and are actively buying products. Rockwell has already begun to experience the benefits of these changes and expects to realize the full impact of these actions during the second quarter of 2023 and beyond.
  • In February 2023, we announced two long-term, multi-million-dollar supply and product purchase agreements that strengthen our revenue base over the next several years and grow our hemodialysis concentrates business. The first arrangement is with the largest non-profit dialysis provider in the United States. The second is with Concerto Renal Services, the largest provider of dialysis in skilled nursing facilities in the United States.
  • Additionally, during the first quarter of 2023, Rockwell established new non-exclusive distribution services agreements with Cardinal Health and Medline Industries for distribution of Rockwell's hemodialysis concentrates products throughout the United States.
  • Rockwell continues to evaluate potential business development opportunities to strengthen the Company's existing hemodialysis concentrates business and potentially expand into new product categories and markets.
  • Rockwell was certified as a Great Place to Work in the United States. Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.
