 pain management options that can reduce or eliminate the need for opioids, which can be associated with unwanted and potentially severe side effects. The partnership includes educational opportunities at NFLA state and local chapter events, as well as national tournaments throughout the year including the Super Bowl, Pro Bowl, Super Bowl of Golf, the Red, White, & Blue Celebrity Golf Classic, and the NFLA Super Bowl Pro-Am. LPGA In 2023, we announced a multi-year sponsorship with the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) to make iovera° its official non-opioid pain management partner. The sponsorship aims to draw attention to the role non-opioid pain management options can play in curbing the U.S. opioid epidemic. As part of this sponsorship, we have hosted initiatives at various LPGA tournaments and Women’s Leadership lunches to drive awareness and education on the availability of non-opioid pain therapies. The Next Frontier: BBC Story Works In 2024, we partnered with BBC Story Works to collaborate on a short film for The Next Frontier series , showcasing the transformative impact of Pacira’s non-opioid innovations on pain management and patients’ lives. The film, which launches in 2025, will be syndicated to BBC Story Works and align with Pacira’s mission to enhance recovery experiences. The film highlights a lifelong athlete and tennis coach who faced debilitating knee pain and difficult recoveries following multiple surgeries. With the advocacy of his wife, a healthcare professional and Pacira employee, he was able to access non-opioid pain therapies that transformed his recovery—allowing him to return to his active lifestyle without reliance on opioids. 6 | investor.pacira.com
