Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE (Tuesday, November 7, 2023) - Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CPIX), a specialty pharmaceutical company, announced today that its product portfolio of FDA-approved brands delivered combined revenues of $10.1 million during the third quarter of 2023 and $30.2 million year to date.

Net loss for the third quarter was $1.0 million, while year-to-date net income was $15,086. Adjusted earnings were $260,146 for the third quarter and $4.2 million, or $0.29 a share, year to date. Cash flow from operations during 2023 has totaled $5.1 million.

The company ended the third quarter with $88 million in total assets, $52 million in total liabilities, and $36 million of shareholders’ equity.

“During 2023 our team has been working diligently to advance our long-term business strategy, building our brands and progressing our clinical programs,” said Cumberland Pharmaceuticals CEO A.J. Kazimi. “Moreover we have refined our mission statement, to reflect our collaborative efforts and patient focus - as we provide unique products that improve the quality of their care.”

Cumberland will report its full third quarter 2023 financial results and provide a company update via a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time.

Recent Company developments include:

New Bank Credit Facility

On September 5, 2023, Cumberland entered into a new Revolving Credit Loan Agreement with Pinnacle Bank for a three-year term. The agreement provides for an aggregate principal funding amount of up to $25 million. It provides an initial revolving credit line with $20 million of availability, and the ability of Cumberland to increase the amount to $25 million under certain conditions. The interest rate is based on Benchmark (Term SOFR) plus a spread of 2.75%, and Cumberland is subject to one financial covenant, the maintenance of a Funded Debt Ratio, determined on a quarterly basis.

New Vibativ Pediatric Study Publication

In October 2023, Cumberland announced a new publication in Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy detailing the results of the first clinical study investigating the safety and pharmacokinetics of its Vibativ injection in children 2 to 17 years of age. Vibativ is an intravenous antibiotic approved by the FDA for the treatment of hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia as well as complicated skin and skin structure infections caused by certain gram-positive bacteria in adults.

This is the first reported study evaluating Vibativ in pediatric patients. The results of the study suggest that a single dose of Vibativ is safe in children and they experience reduced exposure to Vibativ, compared with the same body weight-based dosing in adults.

Federal NOPAIN Act

Cumberland expects its Caldolor injection, a non-opioid analgesic product, will be eligible for special Medicare reimbursement under the Non-Opioids Prevent Addiction in the Nation Act (the “NOPAIN Act”), which was enacted as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023.

The NOPAIN Act requires Medicare to provide separate reimbursement for non-opioid products that are used to manage pain during surgeries conducted in hospital outpatient departments or in ambulatory surgical centers. The NOPAIN Act applies, in part, to products that are indicated to provide analgesia without acting upon the body’s opioid receptors.

The reimbursement for non-opioid pain alternatives under the NOPAIN Act will apply to those products that are furnished between January 1, 2025 and January 1, 2028. It is anticipated that in 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will issue regulations implementing the NOPAIN Act and detailing the conditions for, and amount of, the separate reimbursement. Cumberland submitted a comment letter along with clinical information in the third quarter, explaining why Caldolor should be included and separately reimbursed.

Caldolor is approved by the FDA for use in adults and pediatric patients 3 months and older for the management of mild to moderate pain as a sole therapy, and for the management of moderate to severe pain as an adjunct to an opioid. A series of published clinical studies have demonstrated that Caldolor significantly reduces patient pain, while also significantly reducing patients’ need for opioids.

Sancuso Acquisition and Approval of New Manufacturing Plant

Early last year, Cumberland acquired the U.S. rights to the FDA-approved oncology-supportive care medicine Sancuso from Kyowa Kirin, Inc., the U.S. affiliate of Japan-based Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd.

Sancuso is the first and only FDA-approved prescription patch for the prevention of nausea and vomiting in patients receiving certain types of chemotherapy treatment.

As of September 2023, the transition of Sancuso to Cumberland is complete. In late 2022, the FDA approved moving the product’s manufacturer to a new facility, and the production of supplies for Cumberland at that plant is now underway during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Vaprisol Supply Update

Cumberland continues to work with its new manufacturing partner for Vaprisol, Nephron Pharmaceuticals, to provide interim supplies of a special compounded conivaptan product to the market in support of critically ill patients. The companies will share in the sales of this compounded product, which has been successfully manufactured and expected to be available by the end of 2023. Cumberland then plans to file for the approval to manufacture branded Vaprisol once Nephron addresses the FDA’s Form 483 and warning letter issues.

Clinical Development Programs

Cumberland has been evaluating its ifetroban product candidate, a selective thromboxane-prostanoid receptor antagonist, in a series of clinical studies. It has been dosed in nearly 1,400 subjects and has been found to be safe and well tolerated in healthy volunteers and various patient populations.

Patient enrollment is well underway in two company sponsored Phase II clinical programs to evaluate ifetroban in Systemic Sclerosis or scleroderma, a debilitating autoimmune disorder characterized by diffuse fibrosis of the skin and internal organs; and the Cardiomyopathy associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (“DMD”), a rare and fatal genetic neuromuscular disease that results in deterioration of the skeletal, heart and lung muscles.

Cumberland is sponsoring the FIGHT DMD™ trial, a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase II study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of two doses of oral ifetroban for the treatment of the cardiomyopathy associated DMD. The trial is evaluating 12 months of oral ifetroban in 24 subjects with early-stage cardiomyopathy and 24 subjects with advanced-stage heart disease across 10 U.S. centers that specialize in DMD cardiomyopathy.

In May 2023, Cumberland announced that the FDA has cleared the Investigational New Drug Application for a Phase II study in patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (“IPF”), the most common form of progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease. As a result, the company is initiating its FIGHTING FIBROSIS trial designed to enroll 128 patients in over 20 medical centers of excellence across the U.S. This Phase II clinical trial will study the safety, tolerability and efficacy of oral ifetroban in patients with IPF. Recent studies have shown ifetroban can both prevent and enhance resolution of lung fibrosis in multiple preclinical models.

Cumberland’s plan going forward is to complete each of its company-sponsored studies, analyze their final data, announce top-line results and decide on the best development path for the registration of ifetroban, which the company continues to believe has the potential to benefit many patients with orphan diseases that represent unmet medical needs.

The Company provided the above adjusted supplemental financial performance measures, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others.

Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.

Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the Company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the Company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes. In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the Company's operating performance.

The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows:

•Adjusted Earnings (loss): net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation, interest income and interest expense. The definition of Adjusted Earnings has been changed to include all gains and losses, as gains are occurring more frequently for the Company. The financial information presented for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, has been adjusted to be consistent with the current year presentation.

(a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland.

(b) Year-to-date Adjusted Earnings includes a litigation settlement based on two $500,000 milestone payments due to the Company for the license associated with its Vibativ product.

(c) Year-to-date Adjusted Earnings includes a gain on the refund of 2022 and 2023 FDA fees in the amount of $2.8 million.

•Adjusted Diluted Earnings (loss) Per Share: Adjusted Earnings (loss) divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.
