Arthur S. Przybyl, President and CEO, stated,

"ANI's first half 2015 results yielded material increases in revenue, EBITDA, operating income, and earnings per share over the prior year period, due primarily to our acquisitions of Lithobid and Vancocin as well as the launch of Methazolamide tablets, Etodolac capsules and Propafenone tablets, three of the generic products we acquired in 2014. The revenue and EBITDA contributions from these products demonstrate the importance of our business development activities to our continued growth.

Consistent with that strategy, year to date we have acquired 24 products representing $1.0 billion in IMS sales, including our most recent acquisition in July, when we acquired 22 generic products from Teva, bringing our total pipeline to 67 products, a substantial product pipeline for a pharmaceutical company our size. Equally important, 48 of our pipeline products can be commercialized based on either CBE-30s or prior approval supplements filed with the FDA.

We are similarly focusing on organic growth as a revenue and EBITDA driver, by expanding our internally-developed product pipeline and growing our market share on our existing products. As previously announced, we received FDA approval for our Oxycodone Hydrochloride Oral Solution and our partnered Nimodipine Capsules, both of which we expect to launch in the fourth quarter of 2015, and closed several new sales agreements for EEMT in the first half of 2015. EEMT revenues increased from $8.9 million in the first quarter to $9.8 million in the second quarter and we expect additional increases in our EEMT revenues beginning in the third quarter."

194%

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, ANI reported net revenues of $19.5 million, an increase of 194% from $6.6 million in the prior year period, due to the following factors:

  • Revenues from sales of generic pharmaceuticals increased 185%, to $13.8 million from $4.8 million in the prior period, primarily due to increased sales of EEMT, as well as sales from Methazolamide, which was launched in the fourth quarter of 2014, and Etodolac and Propafenone, which were launched in the first quarter of 2015. EEMT revenues are expected to increase in the third quarter due to sales agreements established in the first half of 2015.
  • Revenues from sales of branded pharmaceuticals increased 275%, to $2.1 million from $0.6 million in the prior period, primarily as a result of sales of Lithobid and Vancocin, which were acquired in the third quarter of 2014.
  • Contract manufacturing revenue decreased by 5% to $1.1 million from $1.2 million in the prior year period, primarily as a result of timing of customer orders.
  • Contract services and other revenues increased by 2,706%, to $2.5 million from $0.1 million, primarily due to royalties received on sales of the authorized generic of Vancocin. In the second quarter, ANI's authorized generic partner for Vancocin adjusted its estimates for chargebacks, rebates, and other deductions from gross sales for the last five months of 2014, which resulted in a non-recurring $1.4 million increase in royalty revenue. In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company expects to launch an authorized generic for Vancocin under its own label, which will replace the authorized generic product currently on the market.

Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA was $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $0.2 million in the prior year period, an increase of over 4,700%. For a reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to GAAP operating income, please see Table 2. 

Cost of sales decreased as a percentage of net revenues to 16% from 32%, primarily due to higher margin sales of the Lithobid and Vancocin branded products and margin increases for the Company's generic products.

Research and development costs increased to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, from $0.9 million in the prior year period. The increase was due to work on development projects, including the ANDAs acquired in 2014, Flecainide, and new collaborations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, from $5.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increased expenses associated with the Company's business development activities, and increased personnel and compensation. These increases were partially offset by a non-recurring prior period $1.3 million catch-up adjustment for non-cash stock-based compensation expense recognized upon shareholder approval of an increase in shares available for issuance under ANI's stock compensation plan.

Operating income was $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to a $2.5 million operating loss in the prior year period.

Other expense increased to $2.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $36 thousand in the prior year period, due to interest expense related to the convertible debt issued in December 2014.

Net income was $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, reflecting an effective tax rate of 37.0%, as compared to a $2.4 million net loss in the prior year period. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $0.31, based on 11,548,831 diluted shares outstanding, as compared to diluted loss per share of $0.21 in the prior year period.

Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.55. For a reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to GAAP net income, please see Table 3.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, ANI reported net revenues of $38.3 million, an increase of 118% from $17.5 million in the prior year period, due to the following factors:

  • Revenues from sales of generic pharmaceuticals increased 102%, to $26.0 million from $12.9 million in the prior period, primarily due to increased sales of EEMT, as well as sales from Methazolamide, which was launched in the fourth quarter of 2014, and Etodolac and Propafenone, which were launched in the first quarter of 2015. EEMT revenues are expected to increase in the third quarter due to sales agreements established in the first half of 2015.
  • Revenues from sales of branded pharmaceuticals increased 374%, to $6.4 million from $1.4 million in the prior period, primarily as a result of sales of Lithobid and Vancocin, which were acquired in the third quarter of 2014.
  • Contract manufacturing revenue decreased by 17% to $2.3 million from $2.8 million in the prior year period, primarily as a result of timing of customer orders.
  • Contract services and other revenues increased by 563%, to $3.6 million from $0.5 million, primarily due to royalties received on sales of the authorized generic of Vancocin. In the second quarter, ANI's authorized generic partner for Vancocin adjusted its estimates for chargebacks, rebates, and other deductions from gross sales for the last five months of 2014, which resulted in a non-recurring $1.4 million increase in royalty revenue. In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company expects to launch an authorized generic for Vancocin under its own label, which will replace the authorized generic product currently on the market.

Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA was $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $4.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of 399%. For a reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA to GAAP operating income, please see Table 2. 

Cost of sales decreased as a percentage of net revenues to 15% from 27%, primarily due to higher margin sales of the Lithobid and Vancocin branded products and margin increases for the Company's generic products.

Research and development costs increased to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, from $1.2 million in the prior year period. The increase was due to work on development projects, including the ANDAs acquired in 2014 and new collaborations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $10.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, from $9.1 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increased expenses associated with the Company's business development activities, and increased personnel and compensation. These increases were partially offset by a non-recurring prior period $1.3 million catch-up adjustment for non-cash stock-based compensation expense recognized upon shareholder approval of an increase in shares available for issuance under ANI's stock compensation plan.

Operating income was $18.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $1.0 million in the prior year period.

Other expense increased to $5.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $7 thousand in the prior year period, due to interest expense related to the convertible debt issued in December 2014.

Net income was $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, reflecting an effective tax rate of 36.9%, as compared to $1.0 million in the prior year period. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $0.68, based on 11,555,522 diluted shares outstanding, as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.09 in the prior year period.

Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.12. For a reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to GAAP net income, please see Table 3.

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 operating income/(loss), excluding depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. 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 in Table 2.

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 non-cash stock-based compensation and non-cash interest expense. Management uses adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when analyzing Company performance.

Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is defined as net income/(loss), excluding stock-based compensation and non-cash interest expense, divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, earnings or 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 in Table 3.
