Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations, which refers to our historical results, should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, including “Risk Factors” and our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein, and in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed on March 23, 2023 (the “2022 10-K”). The various sections of this discussion contain a number of forward-looking statements, all of
which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout or referenced within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Our
actual results may differ materially from our current expectations.
OVERVIEW
Our Business
ADMA Biologics, Inc. (the “Company,” “ADMA,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is an end-to-end commercial biopharmaceutical company dedicated to manufacturing, marketing and developing specialty plasma-derived biologics for the
treatment of immunodeficient patients at risk for infection and others at risk for certain infectious diseases. Our targeted patient populations include immune-compromised individuals who suffer from an underlying immune deficiency disorder or
who may be immune-suppressed for medical reasons.
We currently have three products with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) approval, all of which are currently marketed and commercially available: (i) BIVIGAM (Immune Globulin Intravenous, Human), an
Intravenous Immune Globulin (“IVIG”) product indicated for the treatment of Primary Humoral Immunodeficiency (“PI”), also known as Primary Immunodeficiency Disease (“PIDD”) or Inborn Errors of Immunity, and for which we received FDA approval on
May 9, 2019 and commenced commercial sales in August 2019; (ii) ASCENIV (Immune Globulin Intravenous, Human – slra 10% Liquid), an IVIG product indicated for the treatment of PI, for which we received FDA approval on April 1, 2019 and commenced
first commercial sales in October 2019; and (iii) Nabi-HB (Hepatitis B Immune Globulin, Human), which is indicated for the treatment of acute exposure to blood containing HBsAg and other listed exposures to Hepatitis B. We seek to develop a
pipeline of plasma-derived therapeutics, including but not limited to, a product based on our most recently approved patent application under U.S. Patent No. 10,259,865 related to methods of treatment and prevention of S. pneumonia infection for an immunoglobulin manufactured to contain standardized antibodies to numerous serotypes of S. pneumoniae . Our products and product candidates are intended to
be used by physician specialists focused on caring for immune-compromised patients with or at risk for certain infectious diseases.
We manufacture these products at our FDA-licensed, plasma fractionation and purification facility located in Boca Raton, Florida with a peak annual source plasma processing capability of up to 600,000 liters (the
“Boca Facility”). Based on current production yields, our completed and ongoing supply chain enhancements and capacity expansion initiatives, we believe this facility has the potential to produce quantities of our immune globulin (“IG”) products
representing annual revenues of $240 million or more in 2023, potentially more than $275 million in annual revenue in 2024 and potentially in excess of $325 million of annual revenue thereafter, as well as achieving profitability during the first
quarter of 2024. At these revenue levels, we forecast achieving consolidated gross margins in the range of 40-50% and net income margins in the range of 20-30%. These assumptions translate to potential annual gross profit and net income in the
range of $110-$160 million and $55-$100 million, respectively, during the 2024-2025 time period and beyond.
22
Index
Through our ADMA BioCenters subsidiary, we currently operate ten source plasma collection facilities in the U.S. This business unit, which we refer to as our Plasma Collection Centers business segment, provides us
with substantially all of our blood plasma for the manufacture of our products, and also allows us to sell certain quantities of source plasma and certain other plasma products to third-party customers for further manufacturing. Currently, nine
of our plasma collection centers hold FDA licenses, with the remaining plasma collection center anticipated to receive FDA approval later in 2023. In addition, three of our FDA-approved plasma collection centers also have approvals from the
Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (“MFDS”), as well as FDA approval to operate a Hepatitis B immunization program. A typical plasma collection center, such as those operated by ADMA BioCenters, can collect approximately 30,000 to 50,000
liters of source and hyperimmune plasma annually, which may be sold for different prices depending upon the type of plasma, quantity of purchase and market conditions at the time of sale. Plasma collected from ADMA BioCenters’ facilities that is
not used to manufacture our products is sold to third-party customers in the U.S. and in other locations outside the U.S. where we are approved under supply agreements or in the open “spot” market.
We sell plasma-derived intermediate fractions to certain customers, which are generated as part of our FDA-approved manufacturing process for IG and IVIG products. In January 2020, we announced our entry into a
five-year manufacturing and supply agreement to produce and sell these intermediate by-products, which are used as the starting raw material to produce other plasma-derived biologics. In addition, from time to time we provide contract
manufacturing and testing services for certain third-party clients. We also provide laboratory contracting services to certain customers and anticipate providing contract filling, labeling and packaging services in light of the FDA approval of
our in-house fill-finish capabilities.
Our Products
BIVIGAM
BIVIGAM is a plasma-derived IVIG that contains a broad range of antibodies similar to those found in normal human plasma. These antibodies are directed against bacteria and viruses
and help to protect PI patients against serious infections. BIVIGAM is a purified, sterile, ready-to-use preparation of concentrated human Immunoglobulin G antibodies indicated for the treatment of PI, a group of genetic disorders. This
includes, but is not limited to, the humoral immune defect in common variable immunodeficiency, X-linked agammaglobulinemia, congenital agammaglobulinemia, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome and severe combined immunodeficiency. These PIs are a group of
genetic disorders. Based on recent estimates, these disorders are no longer considered to be very rare, with as many as one in every 1,200 people in the United States having some form of PI.
On May 9, 2019, the FDA approved the Prior Approval Supplement (the “PAS”) for the use of our IVIG manufacturing process, thereby enabling us to re-launch and commercialize this product in the
United States. We resumed production of BIVIGAM during the fourth quarter of 2017 and commercial production is ongoing, using our FDA-approved IVIG manufacturing process under U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) License No. 2019.
The commercial re-launch and first commercial sales for this product commenced in August of 2019.
On April 28, 2021, we announced that the FDA granted approval for our expanded plasma pool production scale process, allowing for a 4,400-liter plasma pool for the manufacture of our BIVIGAM IVIG product. This
increased IVIG plasma pool scale, which allows us to produce BIVIGAM at an expanded capacity utilizing the same equipment, release testing assays and labor force, has had a favorable impact on our gross margins and operating results.
ASCENIV
ASCENIV is a plasma-derived IVIG that contains naturally occurring polyclonal antibodies, which are proteins that are used by the body’s immune system to neutralize microbes, such as bacteria and viruses, and prevent
against infection and disease. We manufacture ASCENIV under HHS License No. 2019 using a process known as fractionation. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) has issued a permanent, product-specific-J-code for ASCENIV. Under
the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (“HCPCS”), the J-code (J1554) became effective April 1, 2021. As part of our proprietary manufacturing process for ASCENIV, we leverage our unique, patented plasma donor screening methodology and
tailored plasma pooling design, which blends normal source plasma and plasma from donors tested to have high levels of neutralizing antibody titers to Respiratory Syncytial Virus (“RSV”) using our proprietary microneutralization testing assay. We
are able to identify the high titer or “hyperimmune” plasma that meets our internal and required specifications for ASCENIV with our patented testing methods and assay. This type of high titer plasma is typically found in less than 10% of the
total donor collection samples we test.
23
Index
ASCENIV is approved for the treatment of Primary Immune Deficiency Disorder (“PIDD”), a class of inherited genetic disorders that causes a deficient or absent immune system in
adults and adolescents (12 to 17 years of age). Our pivotal Phase III clinical trial in 59 PIDD patients met the primary endpoint of no Serious Bacterial Infections (“SBI”) reported during 12 months of treatment. Secondary efficacy endpoints
further demonstrated the benefits of ASCENIV in the low incidence of infection, therapeutic antibiotic use, days missed from work/school/daycare and unscheduled medical visits and hospitalizations. We believe this clinical data together with
the FDA approval for the treatment of PIDD better positions ADMA to potentially further evaluate ASCENIV in immune-compromised patients infected with or at-risk for RSV infection or potentially other respiratory viral pathogens at an
appropriate time. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our plans have been delayed. In the future however, we may work with the FDA and the immunology and infectious disease community to design an appropriate clinical trial to evaluate the use of
ASCENIV in this patient population. Commercial sales of ASCENIV commenced in October of 2019 and our commercial and medical education efforts are focused on the labeled indication of patients with PIDD. ASCENIV’s prescriber and patient
base continued to expand during the fourth quarter of 2022, which drove record utilization and pull-through for the product. These elevated demand trends have sustained into 2023, and ADMA currently expects that this product’s rapid growth will
continue throughout 2023 and beyond.
Nabi-HB
Nabi-HB is a hyperimmune globulin that is rich in antibodies to the Hepatitis B virus. Nabi-HB is a purified human polyclonal antibody product collected from plasma donors who have been previously vaccinated with a
Hepatitis B vaccine. Nabi-HB is indicated for the treatment of acute exposure to blood containing HBsAg, prenatal exposure of infants born to HBsAg-positive mothers, sexual exposure to HBsAg-positive persons and household exposure to persons with
acute Hepatitis B virus infection in specific, listed settings. Hepatitis B is a potentially life-threatening liver infection caused by the Hepatitis B virus. It is a major global health problem. It can cause chronic infection and puts people at
high risk of death from cirrhosis and liver cancer. Nabi-HB has a well-documented record of long-term safety and effectiveness since its initial market introduction. The FDA approved Nabi-HB on March 24, 1999. Production of Nabi-HB at the Boca
Facility has continued under our leadership since the third quarter of 2017. In early 2018, we received authorization from the FDA for the release of our first commercial batch of Nabi-HB for commercial distribution in the U.S. and we continue to
manufacture Nabi-HB under HHS License No. 2019.
POTENTIAL IMPACT OF COVID-19
We continue to monitor the ongoing developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the emergence of the Delta, Omicron and BA.2 variants and other resistant strains of the coronavirus, and its impacts to our
commercial and manufacturing operations and plasma collection facilities, including collections of source plasma, procurement of raw materials and packaging materials, a portion of which are sourced internationally, and the testing of finished
drug product that is required prior to its availability for commercial sale. A substantial portion of such testing has historically been performed by contract laboratories outside the United States.
Due to a combination of previously mandated state and local “shelter-in-place” orders, as well as government stimulus packages, persisting social distancing measures and varying roll-outs of vaccinations by state, we
experienced at times lower than normal donor collections at our FDA approved plasma collection centers during 2021 and part of 2022. From time to time during 2021 and 2022, we were also subject to delays in shipments of source plasma from our
contracted third-party suppliers, as well as delays in deliveries for personal protective equipment, reagents and other non-plasma raw materials and supplies used in the manufacture and distribution of our products. In addition, we have been
subject to supply chain delays as a result of certain of our suppliers diverting significant resources towards the rapid development and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines and, as a result, we have elected to carry more raw materials inventory
than we have in the past. The COVID-19 pandemic previously impacted, to a certain degree, our customer engagement initiatives, whereby ADMA’s sales and medical affairs field personnel faced difficulties communicating directly with physicians and
other healthcare professionals, as well as the cancellation or postponement of a number of key scientific and medical meetings, further limiting our ability to communicate with potential customers.
24
Index
The pandemic could also impact our ability to interact with the FDA or other regulatory authorities and could result in delays in the conduct of inspections or review of pending applications or submissions. Although
we have received FDA approvals for six of our plasma collection centers since January 1, 2022 and received several other FDA approvals while two FDA inspections of the Boca Facility were completed during the year ended December 31, 2021, no
assurances can be provided as to the timing for completion of any future regulatory submissions or applications that may be impacted by restrictions related to COVID-19.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our revenue attributable to international customers was approximately 7% of our total revenues. As we seek to grow this aspect of our business, we may also be
subject to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in locations outside the United States.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the COVID-19 pandemic to date has not had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations, and we do not believe that our production operations at the Boca
Facility, our contract fill/finishers or our plasma collection facilities have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, we do not anticipate and have not experienced any material impairments with respect to any of our
long-lived assets, including our property and equipment, goodwill or intangible assets.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic has not, to date, materially adversely impacted our capital and financial resources, because we are unable to determine the ultimate severity or duration of the pandemic or its
long-term effects on, among other things, the global, national or local economies, the capital and credit markets or our workforce, customers or suppliers, at this time we are unable to predict whether COVID-19, or any known or future variant or
government order, will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. After the COVID-19 global pandemic has settled, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a
result of evolving macroeconomic factors, including general economic uncertainty, unemployment rates, inflationary pressures and any actual economic recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.
IT SYSTEMS DISRUPTION
On June 19, 2023, we experienced an IT systems disruption, which rendered certain of our IT technology systems inaccessible for less than one week. Our investigation of the disruption remains ongoing with the
assistance of third-party consultants. As no definitive root cause has been identified, we believe, theoretically, this IT systems disruption may have been caused by a third-party who may have gained access to the system. There was no original
financial systems or other data loss or any evidence of files exfiltrated due to this disruption. Normal operations have resumed across our business units. At the time of the disruption, we were in production of two batches of BIVIGAM, and after
a prolonged hold time, it was deemed to be a prudent GMP quality decision to discard these two in-process production batches as these batches were no longer viable for further production or had any alternative use. As a result, we recorded a
one-time, non-recurring charge of $2.1 million for this inventory, which is reflected in Cost of product revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. In addition, we believe that our Plasma center operating expenses were
adversely impacted by approximately $0.7 million due to the temporary closing of our plasma collection centers while their IT systems were restored.
We carry appropriate insurance for these types of instances, and while there can be no assurances ADMA will be reimbursed for the insurance claims made pertaining to these charges, we are actively working with its
insurance broker and carriers.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with Accounting
Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and assumptions, including those described below. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be
reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results and experiences may
differ materially from these estimates. Significant estimates include rebates and certain other deductions from gross revenues, impairment of long-lived assets, assumptions used in projecting future liquidity and capital requirements, assumptions
used in the fair value of awards granted under our equity incentive plans and warrants issued in connection with the issuance of notes payable and the valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets.
25
Index
Some of the estimates and assumptions we have to make under U.S. GAAP require difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and, as a result, actual results could differ
from those estimates. Due to the estimation processes involved, the following summary of accounting estimates and their application are considered to be critical to understanding our business operations, financial condition and results of
operations. For a description of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2022 10-K. Estimates and assumptions used in projecting future liquidity and capital requirements are
described in Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Revenues
Our gross product revenues are subject to a variety of deductions, which are estimated and recorded in the same period that the revenues are recognized. These deductions primarily consist of rebates, distribution
fees, chargebacks and sales allowances. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations, some of which are contractual in nature and do not require extensive judgment to be exercised by management, while other estimates require
complex or subjective matters of knowledge and judgment when estimating the impact of these revenue deductions on net revenues for a reporting period.
Historically, adjustments to these estimates to reflect actual results or updated expectations have not been material to our overall business. However, two of our primary immunoglobulin products, ASCENIV and BIVIGAM,
were only approved for commercial sale by the FDA in 2019, and as such our historical experience with rebates with respect to these products is limited. If any of our ratios, factors, assessments, experiences or judgments are not indicative or
accurate estimates of our future experience, our results could be materially affected. Estimates that are most at risk for material adjustment are those associated with U.S. Medicaid rebates because of the extensive time delay between the
recording of the accrual and its ultimate settlement, an interval that can generally take up to several years or more. While our results of operations to date have not required any material adjustment due to this risk, the delay between when this
obligation is initially recorded and ultimately settled could potentially materially impact our revenues and our results of operations in the future.
Stock-Based Compensation and Valuation of Warrants
All equity-based payments, including grants of stock options and Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) are recognized at their estimated fair value at the date of grant, and compensation expense is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the grantee’s requisite vesting period. For the purpose of valuing stock options granted to our employees, directors and officers, we use the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model
was developed for use in estimating the fair value of publicly traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded
options, and changes in the underlying Black-Scholes assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate. To determine the risk-free interest rate, we utilize the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant with a term
consistent with the expected term of our awards. The expected term of the options granted is in accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletins 107 and 110 and is based on the average between vesting
terms and contractual terms. The expected dividend yield reflects our current and expected future policy for dividends on our Common Stock. The expected stock price volatility for our stock options was calculated by examining the historical
volatility of our Common Stock since our Common Stock. We will continue to analyze the expected stock price volatility and expected term assumptions and will adjust our Black-Scholes option pricing assumptions as appropriate. Any changes in the
foregoing Black-Scholes assumptions, or if we were to elect to utilize an alternative method for valuing stock options granted to employees, directors and officers, could potentially impact our stock-based compensation expense and our results of
operations.
26
Index
We also use the Black-Scholes option valuation model for the purpose of estimating the fair value of warrants we issue from time to time in connection with the issuance of notes payable. Changes in our Black-Scholes
assumptions, or if we were to utilize an alternative method for valuing warrants issued to our lenders, could impact our interest expense and results of operations.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We assess the recoverability of our long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets, whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment may have
occurred. If indicators of impairment exist, projected future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset are compared to its carrying amount to determine whether the asset’s carrying value is recoverable. Any resulting impairment is
recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset in excess of fair value and a charge to operating results. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we determined that there was no impairment of our long-lived assets.
Examples of events or circumstances that may be indicative of impairment that would require the use of significant judgment by management include:
•
A significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of the asset.
•
Significant and continued cash flow losses.
•
A significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, such as a restriction imposed by the FDA or other regulatory authorities that could affect our ability to manufacture our products using a particular
asset.
•
An expectation of losses or reduced profits associated with an asset. This could result, for example, from the introduction of a competitor’s product that impacts projected revenue growth, or a change in the acceptance of a product
by patients, physicians and payers that results in an inability to sustain projected product revenues.
Goodwill is not amortized but is assessed for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. The testing of goodwill for impairment requires us to determine whether or not the fair
value of the reporting unit associated with the goodwill is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill and other intangible assets. An impairment charge is recorded to the extent the reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value,
with the impairment loss recognized not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In order to determine the fair value of the reporting unit, we utilize the fair value of the Company as a whole, as determined by its
market capitalization. Determination of the fair value and carrying value of each reporting unit, relative to the fair value of the Company, requires management to employ certain estimates, assumptions and judgment, which we believe are
reasonable. However, any changes to these estimates and assumptions could impact our determination of whether or not our goodwill is impaired. We did not recognize any impairment charges related to goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2023
and 2022.
Deferred Tax Assets
We maintain a full valuation allowance against all of our net deferred tax assets, and as a result have recorded no income tax benefit in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. This valuation allowance
reflects our assessment of whether it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to be able to utilize our deferred tax assets. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, we evaluate
factors such as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods and tax strategies. We consider all positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to realize
our deferred tax assets. We consider cumulative losses in recent years to be a significant type of negative evidence. Based on our history of losses, at this time we have not included future projected taxable income as a source of income to
recognize our deferred tax assets.

Revenues
We recorded total revenues of $60.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $33.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $26.2 million, or approximately 77%.
The increase is primarily related to increased sales of our immunoglobulin products, mainly ASCENIV and BIVIGAM, generated by our Boca Facility manufacturing operations in 2023 of $27.7 million, as we continue to experience increased physician,
payer and patient acceptance and utilization of ASCENIV and expand our customer base for BIVIGAM.
The foregoing increase in IVIG revenues in the second quarter of 2023 was partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in third-party plasma sales by our Plasma Collection Centers business segment. During the first
quarter of 2023, we fulfilled our entire commitment to supply normal source plasma (“NSP”) to our primary third-party customer for fiscal 2023. As a result, we do not expect to generate significant revenues from this business segment during the
remainder of 2023, as we anticipate using all of the plasma collected during that period to support our IVIG production operations.
Cost of Product Revenue and Gross Profit
Cost of product revenue was $43.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $26.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is primarily attributable to volume-driven
increases in product revenue costs related to the increased sales of our IVIG products of $16.9 million and to the inventory losses resulting from the IT disruption in the amount of $2.1 million, partially offset by $1.5 million of lower product
revenue costs related to plasma sales.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we had gross profit of $16.7 million, as compared to $7.8 million for the same period of a year ago, which represents an increase of $8.9 million. As a result, we achieved a
gross margin of 27.8% in the second quarter of 2023 as compared to 22.9% in the second quarter of 2022. This improvement is mainly due to the increase in IVIG product revenues and, to a lesser extent, the absence of lower margin NSP sales in
2023.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses totaled $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $0.9 million for the second quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily due to higher expenditures
related to the BIVIGAM post-marketing commitments we have with the FDA, which were required to be completed by June of 2023 (see Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements).
28
Index
Plasma Center Operating Expenses
Plasma Center Operating Expenses decreased from $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2022 to $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2023. As a result of our plasma center expansion initiatives which have resulted in
10 plasma centers currently collecting plasma, we have more than doubled the amount of plasma collected in the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the second quarter of 2022. In addition, as a result of changes in the market price of NSP and
the impact on the net realizable value of our plasma inventory, the amount of plasma center costs we capitalized into inventory increased by approximately $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of a
year ago. This amount was largely offset by increases in donor fees of $3.3 million, compensation, benefits and temporary labor of $1.3 million, softgoods and supplies of $1.7 million, donor testing expenses of $1.2 million, depreciation of $0.3
million, software maintenance expense of $0.2 million and utilities, janitorial and security services of $0.1 million. In addition, our plasma center collections and operating costs were adversely impacted by approximately $0.7 million due to the
temporary closing of our plasma collection centers to restore their IT systems as a result of the IT disruption.
Amortization of Intangibles
Amortization expense pertains to the amortization of intangible assets acquired in a 2017 acquisition transaction and was $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $14.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $2.3 million from the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase reflects
increases in employee-related costs, including salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation, travel, relocation and recruiting, in the amount of $0.9 million, data services and market intelligence fees in support of the continued ASCENIV and
BIVIGAM commercialization efforts in the amount of $0.7 million, marketing and advertising expenses of $0.2 million, utilities of $0.1 million and software maintenance fees of $0.1 million.
Loss from Operations
Our operating loss was $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $9.2 million for the second quarter of 2022. The $8.7 million decrease in operating loss was mainly due to the improved gross profit
of $8.9 million, partially offset by the increases in total operating expenses of $0.2 million.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $6.3 million, as compared to $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly due to rising interest rates on the
indebtedness underlying our senior credit facility (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources”), increases in debt principal resulting from “in kind” interest paid in the form of additional indebtedness and higher amortization of debt discount in
2023.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.4 million, as compared to other expense, net, of $17,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly due to an increase in
interest income of approximately $0.4 million in 2023.
Net Loss
Our net loss was $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $13.8 million for the second quarter of 2022. The $7.4 million decrease in net loss was mainly due to the narrowed operating loss of $8.7
million attributable to the increased revenues and gross profit and the increase in interest income of $0.4 million, partially offset by the $1.7 million increase in interest expense.

Revenues
We recorded total revenues of $117.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $63.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $54.0 million, or approximately 86%. The
increase is primarily related to increased sales of our immunoglobulin products, mainly ASCENIV and BIVIGAM, generated by our Boca Facility manufacturing operations in 2023 of $51.5 million, as we continue to experience increased physician, payer
and patient acceptance and utilization of ASCENIV and expand our customer base for BIVIGAM. We also benefitted from an increase in sales of NSP through our Plasma Collection Centers business segment of $2.5 million.
Cost of Product Revenue and Gross Profit
Cost of product revenue was $83.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $51.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is primarily attributable to volume-driven
increases in product revenue costs related to the increased sales of our immunoglobulin products and NSP of $32.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively. Cost of product revenue was also impacted by the inventory losses of $2.1 million related to
the IT disruption, partially offset by a decrease in other manufacturing expenses of approximately $3.7 million in the first half of 2023 as compared to the same period of a year ago, mainly due to a shorter routine shutdown of the Boca Facility
in 2023 as compared to 2022.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we had gross profit of $33.2 million, as compared to $11.4 million for the same period of a year ago. This gross profit improvement of $21.8 million was primarily due to the
revenue increases and the reduction in other manufacturing costs discussed above as we elected to extend our otherwise-routine plant shutdown in the first quarter of 2022 in order to complete certain projects. As a result, we achieved a gross
margin of 28.4% in the first half of 2023 as compared to 18.1% in the first half of 2022.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses totaled $2.3 million for the first six months of 2023, as compared to $1.5 million for the first six months of 2022. The increase is primarily due to higher expenditures
related to the BIVIGAM post-marketing commitments we have with the FDA, which were required to be completed by June of 2023.
30
Index
Plasma Center Operating Expenses
Plasma Center Operating Expenses decreased from $7.9 million in the first six months of 2022 to $3.1 million in the first six months of 2023. As a result of our plasma center expansion initiatives, and our more than
doubling the number of liters of plasma collected in the first half of 2023 as compared to the first half of 2022, coupled with the changes in the market price of NSP and its impact on the net realizable value of our plasma inventory, the amount
of plasma center costs we capitalized into inventory increased by approximately $21.5 million in the first half of 2023 as compared to the same period of a year ago. This amount was largely offset by increases in donor fees of $6.7 million,
compensation, benefits and temporary labor of $2.7 million, softgoods and supplies of $3.0 million, donor testing expenses of $2.3 million, depreciation of $0.5 million, software maintenance expense of $0.4 million, utilities, janitorial and
security services of $0.3 million, travel expenses of $0.1 million, transportation costs of $0.1 million, advertising expense of $0.1 million, repairs and maintenance expense of $0.1 million and rent of $0.2 million. In addition, our plasma
center collections and operating costs were unfavorably impacted by approximately $0.7 million due to the temporary closing of our plasma collection centers while their IT systems were restored.
Amortization of Intangibles
Amortization expense pertains to the amortization of intangible assets acquired in a 2017 acquisition transaction and was $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $28.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $3.1 million from the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase reflects higher
expenses for data services and market intelligence fees in support of the continued ASCENIV and BIVIGAM commercialization efforts in the amount of $1.4 million, employee-related costs including salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation,
travel, relocation and recruiting of $0.6 million, marketing and advertising expenses of $0.3 million, insurance expense of $0.2 million, software maintenance expense of $0.3 million and utilities of $0.2 million.
Loss from Operations
Our operating loss was $1.3 million for the first six months of 2023, as compared to $24.0 million for the first six months of 2022. This $22.7 million improvement in operating loss was mainly due to the improved
gross profit of $21.8 million and the reduction in plasma center operating expenses of $4.8 million, partially offset by the increases in R&D and SG&A.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $12.4 million, as compared to $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly due to approximately $56.7 million of additional
debt principal resulting from the refinancing of our senior credit facility on March 23, 2022 (see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources”), including interest payments made “in kind” in the form of
additional indebtedness of approximately $5.0 million, as well as an increase in the stated interest rate on our senior debt from 10.75% in 2022 to as high as 14.4% at certain points in fiscal 2023.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.5 million, as compared to other expense, net, of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly due to an increase in
interest and other income of approximately $0.5 million in 2023, and to several non-recurring non-operational charges in 2022 of approximately $0.2 million.
Net Loss
Our net loss was $13.2 million for the first six months of 2023, as compared to $38.8 million for the first six months of 2022. The $25.6 million decrease in net loss was mainly due to the narrowed operating loss of
$22.7 million mainly attributable to the increased revenues and gross profit and the loss on extinguishment of debt of $6.7 million we recorded in the first quarter of 2022 in connection with the refinancing of our senior credit facility,
partially offset by the increase in interest expense.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net loss are important non-GAAP financial measures used by our management and board of directors to assess our operating performance. We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
net loss as key performance measures because we believe that they facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period that exclude, in the case of Adjusted net loss, one-time and non-recurring items and in the case of EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA potential differences driven by the impact of variations of non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, as well as, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, stock-based compensation or certain one-time and non-recurring items. In
addition, we believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net loss and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of financial
performance and debt-service capabilities. See below for a reconciliation of our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net loss to net income/loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S.
GAAP.
Because EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net loss are measures not deemed to be in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net loss may not
be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including companies in our industry, because other companies may calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net loss in a different manner than we calculate these measurements. Although the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as one of several financial measures to assess its operating performance, its use is limited as it excludes certain significant operating expenses. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA
and Adjusted net loss are not intended to represent cash flows for the periods presented, nor have they been presented as an alternative to operating income/loss, net income/loss or as an indicator of operating performance and should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following table presents the reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30,

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $26.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period of a year ago. The improvement is driven primarily by the lower net loss attributable to increased
sales and gross profit in 2023, as well as responsible and fiscal operational management of the business.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 2023, we had working capital of $224.3 million, primarily consisting of $161.8 million of inventory, cash and cash equivalents of $62.5 million and $36.7 million of accounts receivable, partially offset
by current liabilities of $42.0 million, as compared to working capital at December 31, 2022 of $231.1 million, primarily consisting of $163.3 million of inventory, cash and cash equivalents of $86.5 million and accounts receivable of $15.5
million, partially offset by current liabilities of $39.3 million. We have incurred an accumulated deficit of $491.2 million since inception and had negative cash flows from operations of $20.8 million and $38.8 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $59.5 million and $112.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We have funded our operations over the past few years primarily from the sale of our equity and debt
securities. Our material cash requirements are primarily comprised of:
•
The collection and procurement of raw material plasma and other raw materials necessary to maintain and scale up our manufacturing operations;
•
Employee compensation and benefits;
•
Capital expenditures to complete the buildout for and maintain our plasma collection facilities and for equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at the Boca Facility;
•
Plasma donor fees and plasma center supplies;
•
Interest on our debt;
•
Marketing programs, medical education and continued commercialization efforts;
•
Boca Facility maintenance, upgrades, repairs and supplies; and
•
Conducting required post-marketing clinical trials for our FDA-approved products.
•
Continuous improvements and updates to our IT infrastructure, laboratory equipment and assays, and facilities and engineering equipment.
In addition, our end-to-end production cycle time from procurement of raw materials to commercial release of finished product can take between seven and 12 months or potentially longer, requiring substantial inventories of raw material plasma
and other manufacturing and laboratory testing materials and single use disposables.
We expect that we will not be able to generate a sufficient amount of product revenue to achieve profitability until the beginning of 2024. We currently anticipate, based upon our projected revenue and expenditures,
that our current cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable will be sufficient to fund our operations, as currently conducted, through the end of the third quarter of 2024, by which time we believe we will have been generating positive cash
flow from operations. This time frame may change based upon several factors, including the success of our commercial efforts with respect to the sale of our products and the acceptability of our immune globulin products by physicians, patients or
payers, and whether or not the assumptions underlying our projected revenues and expenses are correct. If we are unable to achieve positive cash flow by the beginning of 2024, we may need to raise additional capital and if such capital is not
available due to widespread liquidity constraints or significant market instability that could result from the COVID-19 pandemic, inflationary pressures or other factors beyond our control, we may have to delay, curtail or eliminate some of our
commercialization efforts or product development activities. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue to achieve positive cash flow by the beginning of 2024 and need to raise additional capital, we may decide to do so through public or
private equity offerings or debt financings, or we may enter into a corporate collaboration or licensing arrangement. The sale of additional equity or debt securities, if convertible, could result in dilution to our stockholders and, in such
event, the value and potential future market price of our common stock may decline.

ADMA continues to evaluate a variety of strategic alternatives. While the exploration of value-creating opportunities remains a top corporate priority for us, we have terminated our financial advisory agreement
with Morgan Stanley.
On March 23, 2022, (the “Hayfin Closing Date”) we and all of our subsidiaries entered into a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Hayfin Credit Agreement”) with Hayfin Services LLP (“Hayfin”). The
Hayfin Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility in a principal amount of up to $175.0 million (the “Hayfin Credit Facility”), composed of (i) a term loan made on the Hayfin Closing Date in the principal amount of $150.0
million (the “Hayfin Closing Date Loan”), and (ii) a delayed draw term loan in the principal amount of $25.0 million (the “Hayfin Delayed Draw Loan” and, together with the Hayfin Closing Date Loan, the “Hayfin Loans”). Pursuant to an amendment to
the Hayfin Credit Agreement dated May 1, 2023 (the “Hayfin Second Amendment”), the obligation of the lenders to make the Hayfin Delayed Draw Loan expires on December 31, 2023, and was subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including,
but not limited to, our meeting certain 12-month revenue targets as set forth in the Hayfin Credit Agreement which have been met. The Hayfin Credit Facility has a maturity date of March 23, 2027 (the “Hayfin Maturity Date”), subject to
acceleration pursuant to the Hayfin Credit Agreement, including upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Hayfin Credit Agreement).
After giving effect to the Hayfin Second Amendment, borrowings under the Hayfin Credit Agreement currently bear interest at the adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for either
a one-month or three-month tenor, as elected by us, and subject to a floor of 1.25%, plus an applicable margin of 8.5% (the “Applicable Margin”); provided, however, that upon, and during the continuance of, an Event of Default, the Applicable
Margin shall increase by an additional 3% per annum. We will also continue to pay “in kind” a portion of the interest on the Hayfin Loans for each monthly or quarterly interest period in an amount equal to 2.5% per annum. Such interest paid “in
kind” will reduce our quarterly cash interest obligation by approximately $1.0 million and will be added to the principal amount of the outstanding debt under the Hayfin Credit Facility. As a result, our outstanding debt principal on the Hayfin
Loans will increase each month as long as we elect to continue to pay a portion of our interest obligation “in kind.” On the Hayfin Closing Date and as of June 30, 2023, the stated interest rate on the Hayfin Loans was 10.75% and 13.7%,
respectively. On the last day of each calendar month or quarter during the term of the Hayfin Credit Facility, we are required to pay accrued interest to Hayfin of approximately $1.5 million per month or approximately $4.4 million per quarter
based on current interest rates, after giving effect to the “in kind” interest of 2.5% per annum, but without giving effect to the Hayfin Delayed Draw Loan, which we have yet to draw upon. As of June 30, 2023, the outstanding principal balance on
the Hayfin Loans is $156.7 million.
On the Hayfin Maturity Date, we will pay Hayfin the entire outstanding principal amount underlying the Hayfin Loans and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, as well as an exit fee of 1.0% of the outstanding
principal amount being paid. Prior to the Hayfin Maturity Date, there are no scheduled principal payments on the Hayfin Loans. We may prepay outstanding principal on the Hayfin Loans at any time and from time to time upon five business days’
prior written notice, subject to the payment to Hayfin of, (A) any accrued but unpaid interest on the prepaid principal amount plus (B) a prepayment fee in the amount equal to (i) 7.0% of the prepaid principal amount, if prepaid on or prior to
the first anniversary of the Hayfin Second Amendment, (ii) 3.0% of the prepaid principal amount, if prepaid after the first anniversary of the Hayfin Second Amendment and on or prior to the second anniversary of the Hayfin Second Amendment, or
(iii) 1.0% of the prepaid principal amount, if prepaid after the second anniversary of the Hayfin Second Amendment and on or prior to the third anniversary of the Hayfin Second Amendment. The Hayfin Second Amendment also provides for a 50%
reduction to the foregoing early prepayment fees if the Hayfin Loans are prepaid under certain circumstances as defined in the Hayfin Second Amendment. In addition, for any prepayments of principal, we are required to pay the 1.0% exit fee for
the amount of principal being paid.

Index
All of our obligations under the Hayfin Credit Agreement are secured by a first-priority lien and security interest in substantially all of our tangible and intangible assets, including
intellectual property and all of the equity interests in our subsidiaries. The Hayfin Credit Agreement contains certain representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants and conditions that are customarily required for
similar financings. The negative covenants restrict or limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things and subject to certain exceptions contained in the Hayfin Credit Agreement, incur new indebtedness; create liens
on assets; engage in certain fundamental corporate changes, such as mergers or acquisitions, or changes to our or our subsidiaries’ business activities; make certain Investments or Restricted Payments (each as defined in the Hayfin Credit
Agreement); change our fiscal year; pay dividends; repay other certain indebtedness; engage in certain affiliate transactions; or enter into, amend or terminate any other agreements that have the impact of restricting our ability to make loan
repayments under the Hayfin Credit Agreement. In addition, we are required (i) at all times prior to the Maturity Date to maintain a minimum cash balance of $6.0 million; and (ii) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, report IVIG product and
related revenues for the trailing 12-month period that exceed the amounts set forth in the Hayfin Credit Agreement, which range from $75.0 million for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2022 to $250.0 million for the fiscal quarter ending
December 31, 2026 and each fiscal quarter thereafter. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants contained in the Hayfin Credit Agreement.
On December 9, 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering whereby we issued 24,125,873 shares of our common stock. Net proceeds after underwriting discounts and expenses associated with the offering were
approximately $64.6 million and are being used to accelerate commercialization and production activities, complete plasma center buildouts and obtain FDA approvals, to conclude post‑FDA marketing approval research and development projects, and
for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.
On September 3, 2021, we entered into a distribution agreement with Raymond James & Associates, Inc., as agent (“Agent”), pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to
time, at our option, through or to the Agent, up to an aggregate of $50 million of shares of our common stock (the “Distribution Agreement”). We currently intend to use any net proceeds from the sale of our common stock under the Distribution
Agreement for general corporate purposes, including procurement of source plasma and other raw materials, supply chain initiatives and production expenditures, funding expansion of plasma collection centers, working capital, capital
expenditures, expansion and resources for commercialization activities, and other potential research and development and business opportunities. We currently have approximately $42.8 million of shares available to sell under the Distribution
Agreement.

Cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $20.8 million, a decrease of $18.1 million from the same period of a year ago, mainly due to a lower net loss after non-cash items and favorable
changes in inventories, accounts payable and accrued expenses in 2023, partially offset by unfavorable changes in accounts receivable. The following table illustrates the primary components of and changes to our cash flows from operations:

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $2.8 million and $6.8 million, respectively, and is comprised of capital expenditures for the construction and buildout of new
plasma collection centers and related equipment and capital expenditures at the Boca Facility. The decrease in capital expenditures in 2023 is due to the completion of the construction and buildout of our 10 plasma collection facilities, with the
10 th facility opening in the first quarter of 2023. While we currently have no firm commitments for capital expenditures, we expect our total capital expenditures
will be between $5.0 million and $7.0 million for the remainder of fiscal 2023, mainly for additional upgrades to the Boca Facility manufacturing operations and related systems.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities was $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $47.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, which mainly
consisted of proceeds received from the Hayfin Credit Facility, net of payments to retire our previously existing credit facility with Perceptive (see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements).
Effect of Inflation
Inflation impacted a number of facets of our business during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 at both of our business segments. We experienced price increases for, among other items, certain raw materials,
consumable supplies, services for repairs and maintenance of our facilities, utilities, shipping and freight charges, fuel surcharges and labor costs, among other expenses. Based upon publicly available information and reports form the U.S.
Government, we expect this trend to continue through 2023 and potentially longer, which could potentially have a significant impact on our future results of operations. In addition, some of our third-party plasma purchase agreements provide for
annual price increases that are tied to various consumer price indices, which have resulted in higher than historical percentage price increases and has resulted in and is expected to continue to result in higher source plasma and other raw
material and supplies costs for the remainder of 2023 and into future periods. We are unable to predict when these external drivers of inflation will subside.
