RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA / ACCESS Newswire / November 6, 2025 / Amphastar Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMPH) ("Amphastar" or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing, and marketing complex generic and proprietary injectable, inhalation, and intranasal products, today reported results for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

"Amphastar delivered another strong quarter, led by double-digit growth from BAQSIMI ^®, which achieved a 14% increase in revenue compared to the same period last year. Additionally, we received FDA approval and launched iron sucrose injection, a key generic alternative which expands patient access to affordable therapies while contributing to our revenue growth. This achievement underscores our commitment to advancing complex generics and leveraging our domestic in-house manufacturing expertise to deliver high-quality therapies to patients. In addition, we bolstered our proprietary pipeline through an exclusive licensing agreement with Nanjing Anji Biotechnology to develop and commercialize three novel peptides targeting high-growth markets across oncology and ophthalmology," said Dr. Jack Zhang, Amphastar's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Together, our sustained commercial momentum, strategic pipeline expansion, and recent FDA approval, position Amphastar to accelerate growth and drive long-term value across its portfolio."

Third Quarter Results

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

• BAQSIMI ^® sales increased primarily due to an increase in unit volumes, as a result of an expanded marketing effort in the United States; total sales of BAQSIMI ^® grew 14% from the prior year's quarter including prior quarter sales by Eli Lilly and Company, or Lilly, which was accounted for in Other revenues

• Primatene MIST ^® sales increased due to an increase in unit volumes driven by our continued marketing efforts

• Epinephrine sales decreased due to a lower average selling price of the multi-dose vial product, causing a revenue reduction of $3.1 million, as a result of increased competition. This trend was partially offset by an increase in unit volumes for our epinephrine pre-filled syringe, as a result of an increase in demand caused by shortages from other suppliers during the quarter

• Glucagon sales decreased primarily due to a lower average selling price, impacting sales by $7.0 million, as well as a decrease in unit volumes, impacting sales by $6.2 million, as a result of competition and the continued shift to ready to use glucagon products such as BAQSIMI ^®

• Lidocaine sales decreased primarily due to a decrease in unit volumes, as a result of other suppliers returning to their historical distribution levels

• Other pharmaceutical product sales changes were primarily due to an increase in sales of albuterol totaling $4.7 million as well as sales of iron sucrose injection, which we launched in August 2025 totaling $2.4 million. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in unit volumes of enoxaparin and dextrose, primarily due to increased competition

• Other revenues were zero in the third quarter of 2025 as we completed the assumption of distribution responsibilities globally for BAQSIMI ^® at the beginning of 2025, with all of BAQSIMI ^® related revenues in the current period being recognized in Product revenues, net. Other revenues in the previous period consisted of $2.4 million in BAQSIMI ^® sales made by Lilly on our behalf under the Transition Service Agreement, or TSA, and was net of $4.0 million in cost of sales and other expenses

Changes in the cost of revenues and gross margin were primarily driven by:

• Decrease in other revenues related to Lilly's sales of BAQSIMI ^® under the TSA, which were recorded net of cost of sales and other expenses; as we assumed distribution of BAQSIMI ^® to all of our customers by the beginning of 2025, we recorded those sales in product revenues and cost of sales separately

• Decrease in unit sales and pricing of glucagon, and lower pricing for our epinephrine multi-dose vial product, both of which are higher-margin products

• Cost control efforts across the business partially offset the impact of pricing declines

• Selling, distribution, and marketing expenses increased primarily due to the expansion of our sales and marketing efforts related to BAQSIMI ^® , including expenses related to our co-promotion contract with MannKind, and sales efforts related to Primatene MIST ^®

• General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to a litigation provision, which increased expenses by $23.1 million

• Research and development expenses increased primarily due to the $5.3 million upfront payment for the licensing agreement that we entered into with Nanjing Anji Biotechnology Co., Ltd. ("Anji"), during the quarter, as well as an increase in clinical trial expense. This was partially offset by a decrease in materials and supply expenses

The change in non-operating expenses, net is primarily due to a change in Other income (expenses), net, as a result of foreign currency fluctuation, as well as mark-to-market adjustments relating to our interest rate swap contracts during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Cash flow provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $123.3 million.

Pipeline Information

The Company currently has three abbreviated new drug applications ("ANDAs") and one biosimilar insulin candidate filed with the FDA targeting products with a combined market size exceeding $2 billion, along with three biosimilar products in development targeting products with a market size exceeding $6 billion, and two generic products in development targeting products with a market size of over $1 billion. This market information is based on IQVIA data for the 12 months ended September 30, 2025. The Company is developing multiple proprietary products with injectable and intranasal dosage forms.

The Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with Anji for the development, manufacturing, use, and commercialization of three proprietary peptides. The first product is based on the discovery by Anji of an endogenous peptide that demonstrates a novel mechanism of action that potentially suppresses the growth and metastasis of multiple poorly treated cancers. The second product is a novel peptide-docetaxel conjugate that targets a specific receptor, designed to improve the selectivity and bioavailability of docetaxel. It is designed to reduce docetaxel-induced toxicity, which will improve the efficacy and safety of current taxane therapies. The third product is an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) peptide of novel design, developed as a topical eye drop for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD). It is intended to be an alternative to the routine eye injections used for current treatment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company is disclosing non-GAAP financial measures when providing financial results. 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 (loss) and (ii) Adjusted non-GAAP diluted EPS, which generally excludes amortization expense, share-based compensation, impairment charges, expenses related to our acquisition of BAQSIMI ^® , certain debt issuance costs, legal settlements, 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.
