PRINCETON, N.J., May 8, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANIP) (ANI or the Company) today announced financial results and business highlights for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

"We delivered a strong first quarter, generating $237.5 million in revenue and $63.0 million in adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA, with solid performance across all business units," said Nikhil Lalwani, President and CEO of ANI. "We are seeing continued momentum in demand for Cortrophin Gel and have made meaningful progress advancing our organizational expansion focused on capturing the opportunity in acute gouty arthritis flares, with the majority of our commercial team now onboarded. We remain confident in Cortrophin Gel's long-term growth potential and are well positioned to drive adoption in underpenetrated specialty indications, while the strength of our Generics business continues to support investment in our Rare Disease portfolio."

Mr. Lalwani continued, "Based on our performance, we are raising our financial guidance which reflects more than $1.0 billion in revenue in 2026, with Rare Disease representing approximately 60% of total revenue, and 55% to 65% year-over-year growth in our lead asset, Cortrophin Gel. We are focused on executing on our 2026 strategic priorities to advance our purpose of serving patients and improving lives and creating shareholder value."

**First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:**

<u>Rare Disease</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Cortrophin Gel:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪ Cortrophin Gel net revenues were $75.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 42.1% over the same period in 2025. As previously discussed, the first quarter of 2026 reflected seasonality related primarily to the impact of insurance re-verifications. In the first half of the quarter, insurance re-verifications took slightly longer to clear as compared to the prior year due to increased Cortrophin patient volume in the physicians' offices and, in some parts of the country due to weather-related physician office closures that temporarily delayed the re-verification process.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪ Year-over-year growth in the first quarter of 2026 was driven by momentum across target indications, the expanded sales force for neurology, rheumatology and nephrology, and synergies from the combined ophthalmology sales force.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪ ANI's Rare Disease organization expansion to capture the opportunity for Cortrophin Gel in acute gouty arthritis flares is proceeding as planned. The Company has recently hired and onboarded the majority of the commercial team who will begin to reach HCPs in Podiatry and Primary Care in the back half of the second quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **ILUVIEN:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪ ILUVIEN<sup>®</sup> net revenues were $19.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 19.5% over the same period in 2025, driven by the continued execution of commercial and patient access initiatives established in 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪ The results from the NEW DAY clinical trial involving ILUVIEN for use in appropriate patients with diabetic macular edema were published in *Ophthalmology,* the journal of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪ The Company is on track to announce results from the Phase 4 SYNCHRONICITY clinical trial in NIU-PS at a medical conference in the third quarter of 2026.

<u>Generics</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Generics net revenues were $105.4 million in the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 6.8% over the same period in 2025, driven by contribution from new product launches, including the partnered generic launch that commenced in the third quarter of 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Launched six new Generics products year-to-date and on track to deliver cadence of 10-15 new product launches in 2026.

<u>Brand Royalties and Other Revenues</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In January 2026, Novitium Pharma LLC (Novitium), a subsidiary of the Company, entered into an IP license agreement (Harmony Agreement) with Harmony Biosciences LLC (Harmony), under which we out-licensed intellectual property that will expand Harmony's intellectual property estate, as well as a co-exclusive license, with which Harmony and Novitium intend to develop a novel formulation of pitolisant in broad CNS indications outside of sleep/wake. Under the Harmony Agreement, the Company received an upfront license fee of $15.0 million and will receive $10.0 million upon achievement of certain development milestones, which is expected to be achieved in the second and third quarters of 2026. In addition, we will earn low single digit royalties on net sales of pitolisant-based products.

------

<u>Brands</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Brands net revenues were $12.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, a decrease of 50.9% over the same period in 2025, reflecting a normalization in demand for certain products.

<u>Corporate Highlights</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Effective on May 8, 2026, ANI's board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to $100.0 million in common stock through May 2029. Under the Share Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares from time to time, at management's discretion, through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The specific timing and amount of repurchases, if any, will vary based on available capital resources and other financial and operational performance, market conditions, securities law limitations, and other factors. The repurchases will be made using the Company's cash resources. The Company is not obligated to repurchase any shares under the Share Repurchase Program.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Generics and Other total net revenues** | $109220 | $103040 | $6180 | 6.0% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Total net revenues** | $237462 | $197122 | $40340 | 20.5% |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> There were no sales of YUTIQ in Q1 2026 as the Company transitioned promotional efforts in the U.S. from YUTIQ to ILUVIEN, which has a combined label of DME and NIU-PS during the second quarter of 2025.

All comparisons are made versus the same period in 2025 unless otherwise stated.

Total net revenues for the first quarter of 2026 were $237.5 million, an increase of 20.5% over the prior year period.

Net revenues for Rare Disease, which includes Cortrophin Gel and ILUVIEN, increased 36.9% to $94.4 million. Cortrophin Gel net revenues increased 42.1% to $75.1 million and ILUVIEN net revenues increased 19.5% to $19.3 million. Growth for both products was driven primarily by increased volume.

Net revenues for Brands decreased 50.9% to $12.3 million driven by normalization in demand for certain products.

------

Net revenues from Brand royalties and other revenues includes a $15.0 million upfront payment and associated royalties of approximately $6.5 million, related to the Harmony Agreement.

Net revenues for Generic pharmaceutical products increased 6.8% to $105.4 million driven by continued strength in the partnered generic launch that commenced in the third quarter of 2025, contribution from new product launches and commercial and operational outperformance.

On a GAAP basis, gross margin decreased from 62.9% to 60.6%. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin decreased from 63.1% to 60.8%. Both decreases were primarily due to higher sales of royalty bearing products, including Cortrophin Gel and a partnered generic product that launched in the third quarter of 2025, and the non-recurrence of prior year revenues from Prucalopride. These effects were somewhat tempered by the initial revenue recognized under the Harmony Agreement.

On both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, research and development expenses were essentially flat year over year.

On a GAAP basis, selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased 3.8% to $73.7 million, while on a non-GAAP basis, selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 12.1% to $71.4 million. Both comparisons include incremental expense related to the initial marketing and recruitment expense of our expansion of the Rare Disease team which is targeting opportunities in acute gouty arthritis, and an overall increase in activities to support the growth of our business. These increases are tempered by $9.0 million litigation settlement recognized in the GAAP figures.

On a GAAP basis, the Company reported net income attributable to common shareholders of $29.5 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $15.3 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, in the prior year period. On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.05 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $1.70 in the prior year period.

Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA for the first quarter of 2026 was $63.0 million, an increase of 24.1% from the first quarter of 2025, driven by increased net revenues and gross profit.

For reconciliations of adjusted non-GAAP metrics, including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA and adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see Table 3 and Table 4 below, respectively.

**Liquidity** 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $311.2 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $255.4 million in net accounts receivable and $625.0 million in principal value of outstanding debt (inclusive of the Company's senior convertible notes). The Company generated cash flow from operations of $58.4 million in the first quarter.

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Revised Full Year 2026<br>Guidance** | **Previous Full Year 2026 Guidance** | **2025 Actual** | **Growth** |
| Net Revenue (Total Company) | $1,080 million - $1,140 million | $1,055 million - $1,115 million | $883 million | 22% - 29% |
| Cortrophin Gel Net Revenue | $540 million - $575 million | $540 million - $575 million | $348 million | 55% - 65% |
| ILUVIEN Net Revenue<sup>(2)</sup> | $78 million - $83 million | $78 million - $83 million | $75 million | 4% - 11% |
| Adjusted Non-GAAP EBITDA | $285 million - $300 million | $275 million - $290 million | $230 million | 24% - 31% |
| Adjusted Non-GAAP Diluted EPS | $9.19 - $9.69 | $8.83 - $9.34 | $7.89 | 16% - 23% |

---

<sup>(2)</sup> Full year 2026 guidance does not include sales of YUTIQ, as the Company transitioned promotional efforts in the U.S. from YUTIQ to ILUVIEN, which has a combined label of DME and NIU-PS during the second quarter of 2025.

ANI expects full year total company adjusted non-GAAP gross margin between 59.9% and 60.9% and anticipates approximately 21.5 million and 21.8 million shares outstanding for the purpose of calculating full year adjusted non-GAAP diluted EPS. The Company expects its annual U.S. GAAP effective tax rate to be between 26% and 28% and will continue to tax effect non-GAAP adjustments for computation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share utilizing a tax rate of 26%.

**Conference Call**

The Company's management will host a conference call and webcast today, Friday, May 8, at 8:00 a.m. ET to discuss its first quarter 2026 results.

To view the webcast, please click here. Links to access the webcast and conference call will also be available on the "Events & Presentations" page of the Company's website at https://www.anipharmaceuticals.com, under the "Investors" section. A replay of the event will remain accessible for up to one year.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

***Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA***

ANI's management considers adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to be an important financial indicator of ANI's operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by non-cash stock-based compensation and differences in capital structures, tax structures, capital investment cycles, ages of related assets, and compensation structures among otherwise comparable companies. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA when analyzing Company performance.

------

Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as net income, excluding tax expense, interest expense, net, other expense (income), net, depreciation and amortization expense, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, M&A transaction and integration expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustments, unrealized (gain) loss on our investment in equity securities, expenses incurred and settlement payments received in connection with certain litigation matters, severance expenses, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, net income or loss reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below.

ANI is not providing a reconciliation for the forward-looking full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance because it does not currently have sufficient information to accurately estimate all of the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliation, including "with" and "without" tax provision information. As such, ANI's management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results.

***Adjusted non-GAAP Net Income***

ANI's management considers adjusted non-GAAP net income to be an important financial indicator of ANI's operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by the non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization, M&A transaction and integration expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustment, unrealized (gain) loss on our investment in equity securities, expenses incurred and settlement payments received in connection with certain litigation matters, severance expense, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP net income when analyzing Company performance.

Adjusted non-GAAP net income is defined as net income, plus the non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization, M&A transaction and integration expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustment, unrealized (gain) loss on our investment in equity securities, expenses incurred and settlement payments received in connection with certain litigation matters, severance expense, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations, less the tax impact of these adjustments calculated using an estimated statutory tax rate. Management will continually analyze this metric and may include additional adjustments in the calculation in order to provide further understanding of ANI's results. Adjusted non-GAAP net income should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, net income reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP net income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below.

***Adjusted non-GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share***

ANI's management considers adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to be an important financial indicator of ANI's operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by the non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation and amortization, M&A transaction and integration expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustment, unrealized (gain) loss on our investment in equity securities, expenses incurred and settlement payments received in connection with certain litigation matters, severance expense, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when analyzing Company performance.

------

Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding excludes certain dilutive shares related to the senior convertible notes as they are intended to be covered by our capped call transactions. Our outstanding capped call transactions are intended to offset the dilutive effect of the senior convertible notes recognized in the calculation of GAAP diluted EPS in this reporting period in full, and therefore 239,000 shares for the three months ended March 31, 2026 have been excluded from the calculation of the Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Weighted-Average Shares outstanding.

Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is defined as adjusted non-GAAP net income, as defined above, divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Management will continually analyze this metric and may include additional adjustments in the calculation in order to provide further understanding of ANI's results. Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, diluted earnings (loss) per share reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below.

ANI is not providing a reconciliation for the forward-looking full year 2026 adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance because it does not currently have sufficient information to accurately estimate all of the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliation, including "with" and "without" tax provision information. As such, ANI's management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results.

***Other non-GAAP metrics***

ANI's management considers non-GAAP research and development expenses and non-GAAP selling, general, and administrative expenses to be financial indicators of ANI's operating performance, providing investors and analysts with useful measures of operating results unaffected by non-cash stock-based compensation expense, M&A transaction and integration expenses, expenses incurred and settlement payments received in connection with certain litigation matters, severance expense, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations.

Management uses adjusted non-GAAP research and development expenses and non-GAAP selling, general, and administrative expenses when analyzing Company performance. Non-GAAP research and development expenses is defined as research and development expenses, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, severance expense, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations.

Non-GAAP selling, general, and administrative expenses is defined as selling, general, and administrative expenses, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, M&A transaction and integration expenses, expenses incurred and settlement payments received in connection with certain litigation matters, severance expense, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations.

Each of adjusted non-GAAP research and development expenses and non-GAAP selling, general, and administrative expenses should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, research and development expenses, and selling, general, and administrative expenses reported under GAAP, respectively.

------

A reconciliation of each of non-GAAP research and development expenses and non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below.

ANI's management also considers non-GAAP gross margin to be a financial indicator of ANI's operating performance, providing investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and certain other items that vary in frequency and impact on ANI's results of operations. Management uses non-GAAP gross margin when analyzing Company performance.

Non-GAAP gross margin is defined as adjusted non-GAAP net revenues less non-GAAP cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) divided by non-GAAP net revenues. Non-GAAP gross margin should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, gross margin reported under GAAP.

<sup>(1)</sup> Adjusted non-GAAP Net Income Available to Common Shareholders excludes undistributed earnings to participating securities.

<sup>(2)</sup> Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding exclude certain dilutive shares related to the senior convertible notes as they are intended to be covered by our capped call transactions. Our outstanding capped call transactions are intended to offset the dilutive effect of the senior convertible notes recognized in the calculation of GAAP diluted EPS in this reporting period in full, and therefore 239,000 shares for the three months ended March 31, 2026, have been excluded from the calculation of the Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Weighted-Average Shares outstanding.
