1 Aytu uses the term EBITDA, which is a term not defined under United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company uses this term because it is a widely accepted financial indicator utilized to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. The Company believes that presenting EBITDA by segments allows investors to evaluate the various performance of these segments. The Company's method of computation of adjusted EBITDA may or may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. We believe that net loss is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is most directly comparable to EBITDA.
Consumer Health Segment Update
As announced in June 2023, in an effort to drive long-term shareholder value, the Company instituted a strategic mandate to focus its business going forward on its growing Rx Segment, which had positive EBITDA for the fiscal year. Aytu's focus on the Rx Segment will result in either monetizing or discontinuing the Consumer Health segment altogether. This goal of emphasizing profitability was initially started with the indefinite suspension of all pipeline programs announced in October 2022 to minimize research and development expense until such time that the Company can fund those efforts with internally generated cash flow or through partnerships.
During fiscal 2023, the Consumer Health segment contributed negative Adjusted EBITDA of
In June 2023, the Company began the wind down of its Consumer Health segment. The Company expects to sell through the remaining inventory on hand resulting in neutral to minimal Adjusted EBITDA for the segment in fiscal 2024.
To the extent possible, the Company will continue to look at possible monetization opportunities for the consumer health brands, as well as potential development partners for the suspended AR101 program, but there can be no assurances that any monetization event or partnership will occur.
Management Discussion
"We finished fiscal 2023 on a strong note, having achieved record revenues, historic total prescriptions, and significantly positive Adjusted EBITDA during the fourth quarter," commented Josh Disbrow, Chief Executive Officer of Aytu BioPharma. "The initiatives we've undertaken to focus efforts on our core Rx Segment, along with the significant margin improvements we're making, have begun being reflected in the strong performance demonstrated as we exited FY23. This elevated performance has been driven by significant Rx Segment growth, which had its most successful quarter to date with all-time high prescriptions, its highest revenues, and a
"Due to the strength of our growing Rx segment, and our expectation to achieve net income going forward, we have elected to de-emphasize and attempt to monetize our Consumer Health segment - which had negative Adjusted EBITDA of

In July 2023, the Company submitted the Cotempla XR-ODT® ("Cotempla") Prior Approval Supplement (PAS) to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). If approved, the PAS would enable Aytu to transfer the production of Cotempla to the Company's third-party manufacturer. The Company expects a six-month review of the PAS submission, which would enable FDA approval by late calendar 2023 or early calendar 2024. The Company previously announced FDA approval of the Adzenys XR-ODT® ("Adzenys") site transfer PAS and has begun shifting Adzenys production to a contract manufacturer. Upon completion of manufacturing transfer of Adzenys XR-ODT and Cotempla XR-ODT, the Company expects this outsourcing can materially add to ADHD gross profit margins.
