IMPORTANT REMINDER TO VOTE YOUR PROXY
June 21, 2017
To My Fellow Shareholders,
The Juniper Pharmaceuticals Annual Meeting, which is being held on June 30, 2017, is fast approaching. We are writing to remind you to vote for
Junipers seven experienced and highly qualified director nominees
please vote today by signing and returning your proxy cards or voting electronically or over the phone.
WE URGE YOU TO SUPPORT THE JUNIPER BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS STRATEGIC PLAN TO ENHANCE VALUE
Junipers Board and management team are working diligently to transform the lives of women across the world and drive value for shareholders. We are:
|
|
|
Growing the core business.
In 2016, Junipers combined product and services business grew 17% year-over-year. This growth was driven primarily by the strength of CRINONE
®
and the expansion of the Juniper Pharma services (JPS) segment.
|
|
|
|
Continuing to advance our highly promising intravaginal ring (IVR) candidates.
We are excited about the progress of our three IVR candidates, for which we expect to file up to three Investigational New Drug (IND)
applications in the first half of 2018:
|
|
|
|
JNP-0101,
which is an oxybutynin IVR for the treatment of overactive bladder in women;
|
|
|
|
JNP-0201
a combination of Estradiol plus natural Progesterone IVR for hormone replacement therapy or HRT to address symptoms of menopause; and
|
|
|
|
JNP-0301,
a natural progesterone IVR for the prevention of
pre-term
birth.
|
|
|
|
Benefiting from our partnership with Merck KGaA, a pharmaceutical leader headquartered in Germany, for the international distribution of
CRINONE
®
.
This product remains a central component of Junipers growth strategy, and Merck actively supports its geographic expansion, with work ongoing to add
regulatory filings in a number of new territories.
|
Looking ahead to the remainder of 2017, our commitment to our IVR pipeline reflects our
excitement around the multiple opportunities with this innovative portfolio. We are pleased with the data we have seen thus far, which is supportive of continued development of all three candidates. In addition, our targeted investments in JPS are
providing a foundation to support growth in our services business. Moreover, we are in discussions with Merck regarding an extension agreement for CRINONE
®
in order to secure a source of
long-term revenue.
