Evofem Biosciences, Inc. (OTCQB: EVFM) is a pioneering biotechnology company dedicated to enhancing women's reproductive health across the globe. The company's flagship product, Phexxi® (lactic acid, citric acid, and potassium bitartrate), is an FDA-approved, hormone-free contraceptive gel. Applied 0-60 minutes before sex, Phexxi maintains the vagina's natural pH, creating an environment unsuitable for sperm. This innovative product has seen increased sales and usage each year since its launch in 2020.
Evofem is committed to providing woman-controlled, non-invasive, and reversible reproductive health solutions. The company's recent strategic initiatives include securing expanded Medicaid coverage in Washington State and renegotiating rebates with Medi-Cal in California. These moves have made Phexxi more accessible to millions of women on state healthcare plans.
In December 2023, Evofem entered a definitive agreement to be acquired by Aditxt, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADTX). This acquisition is expected to accelerate Evofem's growth and expand its product portfolio. The company anticipates this merger will close in the second half of 2024.
Financially, Evofem continues to show resilience and growth. In 2023, the company reported $18.2 million in net sales and a significant reduction in operating expenses.

Looking forward, Evofem is poised to benefit from the burgeoning use of GLP-1 receptor agonists, which can reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptives.
