Forward guidance

The company expects continued growth driven by glucagon, Primatene Mist®, and epinephrine products, alongside the development and approval of pipeline products.

Tailwinds

  • Continued success of nationwide television, radio, and digital marketing campaign for Primatene Mist®.
  • Increase in distribution channels for Primatene Mist® throughout 2020 and 2021.
  • Launch of Glucagon for injection emergency kit in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Increased Lidocaine and epinephrine sales due to higher demand from a market shortage.
  • Lower interest expense due to new credit agreement.

Headwinds

  • Naloxone sales decreased due to lower average selling price resulting from increased competition.
  • Other finished pharmaceutical product sales decreased due to lower demand, largely due to competitors returning to their normal distribution levels.
  • Increased cost for Heparin, which is used as the starting material for enoxaparin
  • General and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to cash compensation and share-based compensation expense relating to the separation agreement that we entered into with a former executive during the second quarter of 2020, which was partially offset by an increase in legal expenses in the second quarter of 2021
  • The extent of COVID-19’s impact on our business will depend on several factors, including the severity, duration and extent of the pandemic including its variants, as well as actions taken by governments, businesses, and consumers in response to the pandemic, all of which continue to evolve and remain uncertain at this time.
