Management to Host Conference Call and Webcast Today at 4:30 p.m. ET

RAMSEY, N.J. and BOCA RATON, Fla., May 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ADMA Biologics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADMA) (“ADMA” or the “Company”), an end-to-end commercial biopharmaceutical company dedicated to manufacturing, marketing and developing specialty plasma-derived biologics, today reported financial results for its fiscal first quarter 2021 and provided an overview of recent progress and accomplishments.

“ADMA has successfully transformed its business in the early months of 2021 and in doing so set the stage for what the Company expects to be a strong year of growth and achievements. We remain on track to deliver on several strategic and financial objectives over the near term, and visibility is improving on the Company’s path to profitability,” said Adam Grossman, President and Chief Executive Officer of ADMA Biologics. “We achieved multiple milestones across business segments during the quarter, while at the same time delivered on operating commitments to shareholders, specifically, generating record quarterly revenues of $16.0 million, a 57% increase over the same period last year. Also on the financial front, ADMA successfully narrowed both gross losses as well as net losses compared to the prior quarter, an encouraging trend the Company will strive to continue in the coming quarters and accelerate throughout 2022.”

ADMA additionally grew its total asset value to a quarter-end balance of $235.7 million, up approximately 13% compared to the year-end 2020 total asset value of $207.7 million. The growth in asset value notably includes approximately $94.1 million in inventories recorded at the Company’s cost, which ADMA expects will support continued production ramp-up as well as quarter-over-quarter revenue growth throughout 2021, and to ensure continuity of product supply into an increasingly supply-constrained immune globulin market.

Mr. Grossman continued, “ADMA substantially strengthened its supply chain during the first quarter of 2021, making significant progress towards its objective to establish end-to-end control of its production operations. Of note, the recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval of the Company’s Intravenous Immune Globulin (“IVIG”) production scale expansion is expected to increase total manufacturing production capacity by up to 50% compared to the Company’s prior expectations, ADMA BioCenters remains on track to have 10 or more plasma collection facilities in operation by 2024, and the two fiscal quarter extension of ADMA’s existing third-party plasma supply commitment to year-end 2022 is expected to further supplement ADMA’s growing internal plasma collections and support the Company in meeting all ongoing, as well as the forecasted, peak IVIG production requirements.”

“The milestones achieved during the first quarter of 2021 establish a strong foundation for ADMA’s continued execution as the year progresses. We believe the multi-year remediation and production enhancement objectives will enable ADMA to yield significant returns in the way of margin improvements, and to generate anticipated quarter-over-quarter revenue growth which we expect should continue throughout 2021 and beyond. The pathway to profitability is clearly in focus. We believe that we have executed on all stated commitments to our shareholders and to a large extent de-risked future growth prospects as a result of the Company’s achievements during the first quarter. These achievements could not have been completed without the dedication and focus of ADMA’s staff and we commend the entire team for their extraordinary efforts,” concluded Mr. Grossman.

Select First Quarter 2021 Achievements & Recent Corporate Developments:

• 
  Continued Commercial Execution:
  
  Achieved first quarter 2021 total revenues of $16.0 million, compared to $10.2 million for the first quarter of 2020, reflecting a 57% increase.

• 
  Inventories Continued to Increase to Support Anticipated Quarter-Over-Quarter Revenue Growth.
  
  Grew inventories to a first quarter 2021 ending balance of $94.1 million compared to $52.3 million in the first quarter of 2020, which supports our anticipated quarter-over-quarter revenue growth in 2021 and beyond. This inventory consists of raw materials, including source plasma, work-in-process and finished goods.

• 
  Strengthened Internal and Externally Sourced Plasma Supply.
  
  ADMA currently has seven plasma collection facilities under its corporate umbrella at various stages of approval and development, including four facilities that are currently operational and collecting plasma, and remains on track to achieve its stated goal of operating 10 or more plasma collection centers by 2024. Over the remainder of 2021, ADMA anticipates to receive approval for one facility presently pending a Biologics License Application (“BLA”), and expects filing BLAs for two additional plasma collection centers. The Company additionally announced an extension of its existing third-party source plasma supply agreement from June 2022 previously through December 2022. We believe ADMA’s growing internal plasma collection network coupled with its contractually committed third-party supply obligations position the company well to ensure sufficient quantities of plasma supply to meet both ongoing production requirements as well as the supply needs associated with the upwardly revised peak annual production capacity expectations of up to 600,000-liters.

• 
  Advanced Supply Chain Enhancement Initiative.
  
  The recent FDA approval of the 4,400-liter IVIG plasma pool scale increase for BIVIGAM
  
  ^®
  
  will enable ADMA to potentially ramp-up to 600,000-liters of annual production throughput, realize meaningful gross margin improvement as production throughput flows through the standard 7 to 12-month manufacturing cycle for plasma-derived therapies, and allow ADMA to offer BIVIGAM
  
  ^®
  
  in two vial sizes, both the 50 mL and 100 mL configurations. The next anticipated regulatory decision as a part of ADMA’s supply chain enhancement initiative will be for the installed VanRx SA25 Workcell aseptic fill-finish machine (“VanRx”). Based on recent correspondence with the FDA, a facility site inspection (virtual or in-person per current published FDA guidance) will be required prior to approval, the timing of which will be contingent on COVID-19 policies. ADMA is actively working with the FDA to find a way to expedite the plant inspection, and the Company sees a potential pathway for receiving approval during the fourth quarter of 2021. Importantly, the potential regulatory delay has no impact on the Company’s near-term or ongoing operating targets, and ADMA remains confident in its ability to receive FDA approval of its in-house fill-finish machine.

• 
  Improved ASCENIV’s Coverage and Patient Access.
  
  Permanent J-code was implemented April 1, 2021, which will provide for a streamlined and permanent reimbursement process in outpatient treatment settings.

• 
  Launched ADvantage Ig Comprehensive Patient Support Program.
  
  ADvantage Ig is a comprehensive patient support program designed to help prevent potential barriers to providers obtaining access to ADMA’s therapies for their patients. The launch of this comprehensive patient support program allows for a singular point of contact for patients and providers.

• 
  Lobbied Stakeholders in the Fight Against Sexually Transmitted Diseases.
  
  Presented a poster highlighting the pharmacoeconomic burden of human immunodeficiency virus (“HIV”) and Hepatitis B virus (“HBV”) infection in sexual assault patients at the 2021 Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy virtual annual meeting. The Company’s analysis suggests that amending U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines in this at-risk population for HBV to mirror those of HIV and specifically mandating a Hepatitis B Globulin intervention such as ADMA’s Nabi-HB
  
  ^®
  
  hyperimmune, will provide a cost-effective strategy for prophylactic seroprotection of these vulnerable patients.
  

First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 were $16.0 million, compared to $10.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, representing an increase of approximately $5.8 million, or 57%. The revenue growth for the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, was favorably impacted by the continued commercial ramp up of our IVIG product portfolio.

Consolidated net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $18.4 million, or $(0.16) per basic and diluted share, compared to a consolidated net loss of $19.2 million, or $(0.26) per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. The $0.8 million narrowing in net loss compared to the prior year period was primarily attributable increased revenues and improved gross margins.

At March 31, 2021, ADMA had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $62.0 million and accounts receivable of $15.4 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $55.9 million and accounts receivable of $13.2 million as of December 31, 2020.
