Commercial Channel revenue up 22% with continued strong Integrity™ Implant System and Hyalofast® growth, and double-digit International OA Pain Management growth
Third and final Hyalofast PMA module filed and data released
Cingal® achieved commercial milestone of more than one million injections worldwide since 2016
Reaffirming Fiscal 2025 guidance and long-term outlook and commencing a $15 million 10b5-1 share repurchase
BEDFORD, Mass., Nov. 05, 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 third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Third Quarter 2025 Results
Anika reported third quarter revenue from continuing operations of $27.8 million, a 6% decrease compared to the same period in 2024. Commercial Channel revenue increased 22% year over year, while OEM Channel revenue, which includes U.S. OA Pain Management, was down 20% in line with expectations. The OEM Channel decline was driven by lower U.S. pricing for Monovisc® and Orthovisc®, sold by our commercial partner, Johnson & Johnson MedTech.
Cheryl Blanchard, President and CEO of Anika Therapeutics, commented: "We continue to see strength in our Commercial Channel with Regenerative Solutions revenue increasing 25% in the quarter driven by Integrity's outperformance, continued strong international Hyalofast growth, and double-digit International OA Pain Management revenue growth. Third quarter pricing for U.S. OA Pain Management products was in line with expectations, and we anticipate the full year to be in line with our prior guidance. In addition, J&J MedTech has exercised its option to continue our license and supply agreement for Monovisc for another 5-year term through December 2031. During the quarter, Cingal reached a significant commercial milestone, surpassing 1 million injections globally since launch. Finally, we continued to take actions to improve our operating expense profile, with Selling, General and Administrative expenses down 12% year over year, and overall operating expenses down 3%, as we continue to work to improve our profitability and free cash flow."
Strong Integrity Commercial Performance
Integrity procedures grew for the sixth consecutive quarter and continues to outpace the overall growth of the U.S. soft tissue augmentation market. The strong growth keeps Integrity on pace to more than double procedures and revenue in 2025 compared to 2024. The recently cleared larger shapes and sizes of the Integrity Implant System, tailored for Achilles repair in the foot and other large tendon applications in the knee and hip, entered limited release with first sales and cases completed during the quarter. These additions are expected to accelerate adoption and support sustained commercial momentum into 2026.
Double Digit Growth in International OA Pain Management
Anika's International Sales organization continues to be a strong contributor to overall performance, delivering third-quarter revenue growth of 21% year over year. This increase was primarily driven by the timing of distributor orders. Year-to-date revenue is up 6%, reflecting solid growth in both Cingal and Orthovisc, partially offset by delayed Monovisc orders stemming from earlier production-related challenges. International Sales remains a key driver of our revenue strength, as we expand market share in established regions and accelerate growth in new markets with our current product portfolio.
Hyalofast PMA Submission Filed and Clinical Data Released
On October 31, 2025, Anika submitted the third and final module of the Hyalofast Premarket Approval ("PMA") application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). In addition, data from the U.S. pivotal Phase III FastTRACK clinical trial has been released, demonstrating statistically significant improvements in key secondary endpoints such as KOOS Sports and Recreation Function, Quality of Life, and Total KOOS. Anika is encouraged by the strength and consistency of the overall data submitted to FDA for review, including positive clinical findings from independent studies conducted outside the U.S. over the past 15 years, which have demonstrated the consistent safety and efficacy of Hyalofast. For additional details, please see Anika's press release dated November 5, 2025 regarding the Hyalofast PMA filing and the Phase III FastTRACK clinical data.
Progress on Final Steps to Cingal NDA Filing
During the quarter, Anika advanced key activities toward filing the NDA for Cingal, its next-generation, non-opioid, single-injection OA Pain Management product, consisting of Anika's proprietary cross-linked hyaluronic acid combined with a fast-acting steroid. Anika completed the first of two toxicity studies and initiated patient screening for the bioequivalence study, which remains on track to begin before year-end. Upon completion of these two studies, requirements for the NDA submission in the U.S. will be complete.

Non-GAAP Financial Information1
Non-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 Operations
Adjusted 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.
