Anika Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

First Quarter 2025 Commercial Channel revenue up 18% Integrity™ Implant System continues sequential growth and is on pace to more than double procedures in 2025 Key regulatory and clinical milestones achieved for Hyalofast®, Cingal®, and Integrity Updating Fiscal 2025 OEM Channel revenue guidance and Adjusted EBITDA guidance BEDFORD, Mass., May 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Anika Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANIK), a global leader in the osteoarthritis (“OA”) pain management and regenerative solutions spaces focused on early intervention orthopedics, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. First Quarter 2025 ResultsAnika announced first quarter revenue from continuing operations of $26.2 million, a 10% decrease compared to the same period in 2024. Commercial Channel revenue was strong, up 18% driven by continued growth of Integrity and international OA Pain Management. OEM Channel revenue, which includes U.S. OA Pain Management, was down 23% in the quarter, due to lower pricing for Monovisc® and Orthovisc®, sold by its commercial partner, J&J MedTech. During the quarter, Anika also achieved significant milestones for two key pipeline programs; filing the second Hyalofast PMA module and receiving formal written feedback from the previously reported FDA Type C meeting regarding Cingal, clearing the path to NDA filing. Cheryl Blanchard, President and CEO of Anika Therapeutics, commented: "Since our strategic realignment we have outperformed in our Commercial Channel where we control sales, marketing and pricing. We continue to see consistently strong growth within the Commercial Channel, up 18% in the quarter. Sales in our OEM Channel did not meet expectations due to lower pricing of Monovisc and Orthovisc in the U.S. To date, the pricing volatility has not been fully offset by the measures that J&J MedTech has implemented to stabilize pricing in the market. Nevertheless, Monovisc and Orthovisc continue to hold leading positions in the U.S. market. I am also pleased to report that we continue to make excellent progress on our cost-saving measures. As a result, operating expenses declined 12% in the quarter. During the quarter, we continued to invest in the regulatory and clinical efforts necessary to file for U.S. approval of both Hyalofast and Cingal. We continue to make meaningful progress on both programs and are confident that Hyalofast and Cingal will be market-drivers in both the cartilage repair and next generation OA pain markets.” Integrity Implant System Exceeding Launch ExpectationsIntegrity procedures grew for the fourth consecutive quarter and Anika is on pace to outperform the overall U.S. soft tissue augmentation market by more than doubling procedures in 2025. More than 300 Integrity surgeries were performed for the second straight quarter driven by expanded use by existing surgeon users and continued surgeon pull adding new users each month. Year-over-year, Anika achieved 33% growth in its Regenerative Solutions portfolio, continuing to exceed initial launch expectations for Integrity and expand the foundation for future growth within this segment. Further, the Integrity prospective clinical study advanced in the first quarter, with patient enrollment underway and full site activation expected in the second half of 2025. This study will provide the foundation for MDR filing and the future European market launch, as well as the evidence to accelerate adoption and competitive position in the U.S. International OA Pain Management Growth ContinuesAnika delivered 13% international OA Pain Management growth in the first quarter driven by continued geographic expansion and market share gains for Cingal and Orthovisc. Hyalofast Achieved Significant Regulatory and Clinical MilestonesAs previously announced, Anika submitted the second PMA module and received MDR approval for Hyalofast in January and February, respectively. The Company remains on track to submit the third and final PMA module in the second half of 2025 with the U.S. launch expected in 2026. Cingal NDA Filing Path ClearedAnika received formal written feedback from the FDA on the previously reported Type-C meeting held in February. The feedback confirmed alignment on the bioequivalence bridging study design and the path to NDA filing. In April, the Company entered into an agreement to secure access to the necessary materials to complete the bioequivalence study in accordance with the feedback received from the FDA. The completion of the bioequivalence study, along with the completion of the ongoing toxicity study, remain the final two requirements to file the NDA. Share RepurchaseThe Company completed its previously announced $15 million share repurchase plan in March, while preserving a strong financial position with $53 million in cash and no debt.

Updated Fiscal 2025 GuidanceAnika expects updated 2025 revenue ranges by segment as follows: Commercial Channel, unchanged, of $47 to $49.5 million, up 12% - 18% year-over-yearOEM Channel of $62 to $65 million, down 16% - 20% year-over-year, as a result of lower forecasts on end user pricing from J&J MedTech as compared to our prior range of down 12% - 18% year-over-year. The Company is updating its guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to -3% to 3% (previously 8% to 10%) as a result of lower end-user pricing for Monovisc and Orthovisc, lower first half manufacturing yields, the costs for the Cingal bioequivalence study, and the known impacts associated with recently announced tariffs. Discontinued OperationsArthrosurface and Parcus Medical are reported in discontinued operations. Each of these business’s results have been moved into Discontinued Operations for Anika’s income statement presentation, and the year-end balance sheet reflects the associated assets and liabilities as held for sale. The sale of Arthrosurface, as previously communicated, was completed on October 31, 2024, and the transition services related work to transfer the business to the new acquiror has been completed. The sale of Parcus Medical was completed on March 7, 2025, and Anika expects to complete the majority of the key transition-related support activities before year-end to ensure a smooth transfer to the acquiror and to support distributors and customers through the transition.

Non-GAAP Financial Information1Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, the Company’s reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, the Company’s definition of non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company’s reported results of operations, Anika strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it uses them as supplemental measures in internally assessing the Company’s operating performance, and, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, it is set as a key performance metric to determine executive compensation. The Company also recognizes that these non-GAAP measures are commonly used in determining business performance more broadly and believes that they are helpful to investors, securities analysts, and other interested parties as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations excluding depreciation and amortization, interest and other income (expense), income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, and shareholder activism costs. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EPS from Continuing OperationsAdjusted net income (loss) is defined by the Company as GAAP net income from continuing operations, on a tax effected basis, excluding stock-based compensation. Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations is defined by the Company as GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations excluding stock-based compensation. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations to net income (loss) from continuing operations and adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations to diluted EPS from continuing operations, the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, is shown in the tables at the end of this release.
