Insights

Amphastar Pharmaceuticals delivered robust Q4 2024 results with $186.5 million in revenue and adjusted EPS of $0.92, capping a strong fiscal year with $732 million in total revenue and $200.8 million in adjusted non-GAAP net income ($3.86 per share).

The company's product mix is evolving favorably, with two key growth drivers emerging: Primatene MIST exceeded the long-term goal of $100 million in annual sales, while BAQSIMI contributed $41.8 million in direct sales during Q4 alone ($126.9 million for the full year), showing 12% growth versus Q4 2023. This transition from the Lilly TSA arrangement to direct distribution of BAQSIMI is significant as it gives Amphastar full control over this growth asset.

The operational cash flow generation of $213.4 million for 2024 demonstrates strong underlying business fundamentals and provides substantial financial flexibility for pipeline investments. This cash generation is particularly impressive considering the company made a $129 million deferred payment to Lilly in June 2024.

While several legacy products faced competitive pressures (glucagon, enoxaparin, naloxone), the company's strategic shift toward higher-margin proprietary products is improving the overall financial profile. The pipeline remains robust with four ANDAs filed targeting $2+ billion markets, four biosimilars in development addressing $7+ billion markets, and additional proprietary products with injectable and intranasal dosage forms.

The company's ability to successfully commercialize Primatene MIST and integrate BAQSIMI demonstrates execution capabilities that should support continued growth as they advance their proprietary pipeline in 2025.

Amphastar's Q4 and full-year 2024 results highlight a successful strategic pivot toward higher-margin proprietary respiratory products while leveraging vertical integration capabilities. The standout achievement was Primatene MIST exceeding $100 million in annual sales - a significant milestone for an OTC asthma product that demonstrates the company's consumer marketing capabilities beyond their traditional hospital-focused business.

The BAQSIMI integration represents another strategic win, with the product now fully transitioned from Lilly's distribution to Amphastar's direct control. The 12% growth in factory sales indicates strong market acceptance of this ready-to-use glucagon product, which is displacing traditional reconstitution kits (including Amphastar's own injectable glucagon). This cannibalization is strategically sound as BAQSIMI commands premium pricing and better margins while offering superior clinical utility.

The company's diversified manufacturing capabilities across injectable, inhalation, and intranasal delivery systems provide technological barriers to entry that support their specialized product portfolio. This is complemented by vertical integration through their ANP subsidiary in China, which develops DMFs and supplies APIs, helping insulate against supply chain disruptions that have created opportunities in products like dextrose and sodium bicarbonate.

While legacy injectable products face competitive pressures, Amphastar's pipeline strategy balances near-term opportunities (four filed ANDAs targeting $2+ billion markets) with longer-term high-value biosimilars (four candidates targeting $7+ billion markets). The company's experience with complex delivery systems positions them well in these specialized segments where competition is typically more than in oral solid dosage forms.

The robust $213.4 million operating cash flow provides ample resources to advance their proprietary pipeline while maintaining financial flexibility, suggesting sustainable growth potential beyond their current commercial portfolio.

Changes in product revenues, net as compared to the fourth quarter of the prior year were primarily driven by:

  • BAQSIMI® revenues consisting of $41.8 million in sales made by the Company directly to its customers, which are recorded as part of product revenues, net

  • Primatene MIST® sales increased primarily due to an increase in unit volumes

  • Glucagon sales decreased due to a decrease in unit volumes as a result of competition and a market shift towards ready-to-use glucagon products such as BAQSIMI®

  • Epinephrine sales decreased due to a decrease in unit volumes, as well as a decrease in average selling price, primarily as a result of new competition for our epinephrine vial product

  • The decrease in sales of phytonadione and naloxone was due to a decrease in unit volume, as well as a decrease in average selling price

  • Enoxaparin sales decreased primarily due to a decrease in unit volumes

  • Other pharmaceutical product sales changes were primarily due to:

    • Higher unit volumes of dextrose and sodium bicarbonate due to increased demand caused by supplier shortages during the fourth quarter

    • This increase was partially offset by:

      • Lower sales of ganirelix and medroxyprogesterone due to a decrease in average selling price, as well as lower unit volumes

  • Other revenues decreased as the Transition Service Agreement, or TSA, with Lilly expired in the fourth quarter of 2024, and since we have assumed all distribution responsibilities, we record BAQSIMI® sales in product revenues, net and costs of sales. The other revenues included in the fourth quarter of 2024 represents BAQSIMI® sales of $0.3 million, less associated costs of sales, and a true-up of the Net Economic Benefit payments due at the expiration of the TSA.

    • Lower unit sales of atropine and calcium chloride, as a result of other suppliers returning to their historical distribution levels

    • These decreases were partially offset by:

      • Higher unit volumes of dextrose and sodium bicarbonate due to an increase in demand caused by other supplier shortages

      • The launch of albuterol in August 2024

  • Other revenues which consisted of $38.9 million in BAQSIMI® sales made by Lilly, on behalf of the Company under the TSA, which resulted in a net payment to the Company of $19.2 million after deducting the cost of sales and other expenses

The Company believes that an evaluation of its ongoing operations (and comparisons of its current operations with historical and future operations) would be difficult if the disclosure of its financial results were limited to financial measures prepared only in accordance with GAAP. As a result, the Company is disclosing certain non-GAAP results, including (i) Adjusted non-GAAP net income and (ii) Adjusted non-GAAP diluted EPS, which exclude amortization expense, share-based compensation, impairment charges, expenses related to our acquisition of BAQSIMI®, certain debt issuance costs, income tax provisions on pre-tax adjustments, and other one-time events in order to supplement investors' and other readers' understanding and assessment of the Company's financial performance because the Company's management uses these measures internally for forecasting, budgeting, and measuring its operating performance. Whenever the Company uses such non-GAAP measures, it will provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Investors and other readers are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures set forth below and should consider non-GAAP measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as a superior measure to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements in this press release and in the conference call referenced above that are not historical are forward-looking statements, including, among other things, statements relating to our expectations regarding future financial performance and business trends, our future growth, sales and marketing of our products, market size and expansion, product portfolio, product development, the timing of FDA filings or approvals, including the DMFs of ANP, the timing of product launches, acquisitions and other matters related to our pipeline of product candidates, the timing and results of clinical trials, the benefits BAQSIMI®, including its potential for continued revenue growth, the strategic trajectory of and market for our product pipeline, our ability to leverage our existing expertise and technology, and other future events. These statements are not facts but rather are based on Amphastar's historical performance and our current expectations, estimates, and projections regarding our business, operations, and other similar or related factors. Words such as "may," "might," "will," "could," "would," "should," "anticipate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "believe," "estimate," and other similar or related expressions are used to identify these forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult or impossible to predict and, in some cases, beyond Amphastar's control. Actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those described in Amphastar's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 10, 2024, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on August 9, 2024, and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on November 7, 2024, and our other filings or reports that we may file with the SEC. In particular, there can be no guarantee that our sales strategies will be successful, or that we will continue to experience significant sales of BAQSIMI®. You can locate these reports through our website at http://ir.amphastar.com and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. The forward-looking statements in this release speak only as of the date of the release.
