Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, as defined in Regulation G promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Alimera reports its financial results in compliance with GAAP but believes that the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net product revenue to exclude fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates provide useful information to investors regarding Alimera’s operating performance. Alimera uses each of these non-GAAP financial measures in the management of its business. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 has been presented in certain instances excluding items identified in the reconciliations provided in the table entitled “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income or Loss to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA.” GAAP net income or loss is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA. Further, net product revenue has been adjusted to exclude fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. See the table entitled “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Product Revenue to Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Product Revenue.” GAAP net product revenue is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted net product revenue.
These non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies because not all companies calculate Adjusted EBITDA or adjust revenue for currency fluctuations in an identical manner. Therefore, these non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily accurate measures of comparison between companies.
The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for guidance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant elements required by GAAP to be recorded in Alimera’s financial statements. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations because they reflect the exercise of judgments by management in determining these non-GAAP financial measures.
Forward Looking Statements
The conference call in which executives of Alimera will discuss this press release may include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any such forward-looking statements will be based on current expectations and involve inherent risks and uncertainties, including factors that could delay, divert or change these expectations, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements.
Meaningful factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, uncertainties associated with (a) governmental orders and policies adopted by healthcare facilities to address the COVID-19 pandemic; (b) the possible resurgence of the pandemic in certain markets; (c) the effects of the emergence of COVID-19 variants that increase the transmissibility of the coronavirus, particularly if those variants are or become more deadly; (d) the success or failure of the continued vaccine campaigns in Alimera’s markets; and (e) whether and when Alimera’s international operations will return to their prior growth trajectory in certain key markets, particularly Germany; as well as the other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of Alimera’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and Alimera’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, which are on file with the SEC and are available on Alimera’s website and the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. Additional factors will also be described in those sections of Alimera’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2022 to be filed with the SEC today.
Alimera undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any of the forward-looking statements made in this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Therefore, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing Alimera’s views as of any date after today.
