(NASDAQ: KMDA; TASE: KMDA.TA), a global biopharmaceutical company with a portfolio of marketed products indicated for rare and serious conditions and a leader in the specialty plasma-derived field, today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2025. “Results for the first quarter of 2025 were in line with our expectations and consistent with the strong operational and commercial performance we generated over the course of the previous year,” said Amir London, Kamada’s Chief Executive Officer. “Total revenues for the first quarter were $44.0 million, representing an increase of approximately 17% year-over-year, and adjusted EBITDA was $11.6 million, an increase of approximately 54% year-over-year. We continue to generate profitable growth through the diversity of our portfolio and disciplined management of operational expenses. We are reiterating our 2025 annual guidance of $178 million to $182 million in revenues, and $38 million to $42 million of adjusted EBITDA.” “We continue to invest in our four strategic growth pillars, consisting of organic commercial growth, business development and M&A transactions, our plasma collection operations, and advancement of our pivotal Phase 3 Inhaled AAT program. We were pleased to announce last week the initiation of a comprehensive post-marketing research program for CYTOGAM®, which we believe will further demonstrate the various benefits of the product in the prevention and management of cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease in solid organ transplantation. We believe that the data generated by this program will support additional product utilization in the coming years,” added Mr. London. “Based on our ongoing business development initiatives,we expect to securecompelling opportunities to enrich our portfolio of marketed products, complement our existing commercial operations and support our continued profitable growth. During the quarter, we also expanded our plasma collection operations with the opening of our third center located in San Antonio, TX. Once at full collection capacity, we anticipate that each of our Houston and San-Antonio collection centers will contribute annual revenues of $8 million to $10 million throughsales of normal source plasma. Lastly, we continue to advance our ongoing pivotal Phase 3 InnovAATe clinical trial for our inhaled Alpha-1 Antitrypsin therapy.Enrollment is progressing, and we are on track to conduct an interim futility analysis by the end of 2025,” concluded Mr. London. Financial Highlights for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Total revenues were $44.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, up 17% compared to $37.7 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in revenues was driven by the diversity of our portfolio, primarily attributable to increased sales of GLASSIA® and KAMRAB® in ex U.S. markets, as well as sales of VARIZIG® and royalty income from GLASSIA.Gross profit and gross margins were $20.7 million and 47%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $16.8 million and 44%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in both metrics is attributable to improved product sales mix.Operating expenses, including R&D, S&M, G&A and other expenses, totaled $13.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $12.7 million in the first quarter of 2024. The marginal increase in operating expenses is indicative of the Company’s ability to adequately manage its operational spend while continuing to generate meaningful revenue growth.Net income was $4.0 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $2.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2024.Adjusted EBITDA, as detailed in the tables below, was $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, up 54% from the $7.5 million reported in the first quarter of 2024.Cash used in operating activities was $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. Cash used in operating activities during the first quarter of 2025 was affected by an increase in working capital in support of continued growth. Balance Sheet HighlightsAs of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $76.3 million, as compared to $78.4 million as of December 31, 2024.

The new center is expected to contribute annual revenues of $8 million to $10 million through sales of normal source plasma at its full capacity.Announced the award of a contract with an international organization for the supply of KAMRAB and VARIZIG in Latin America for 2025-2027.

Non-IFRS financial measuresWe present EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we use these non-IFRS financial measures to assess our operational performance, for financial and operational decision-making, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Management believes these non-IFRS financial measures are useful to investors because: (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and provide investors with a meaningful perspective on the current underlying performance of the Company’s core ongoing operations; and (2) they exclude the impact of certain items that are not directly attributable to our core operating performance and that may obscure trends in the core operating performance of the business. Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, our IFRS results. We expect to continue reporting non-IFRS financial measures, adjusting for the items described below, and we expect to continue to incur expenses similar to certain of the non-cash, non-IFRS adjustments described below. Accordingly, unless otherwise stated, the exclusion of these and other similar items in the presentation of non-IFRS financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under IFRS and do not purport to be an alternative to IFRS terms as an indicator of operating performance or any other IFRS measure. Moreover, because not all companies use identical measures and calculations, the presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus income tax expense, plus or minus financial income or expenses, net, plus or minus income or expense in respect of securities measured at fair value, net, plus or minus income or expenses in respect of currency exchange differences and derivatives instruments, net, plus depreciation and amortization expense, whereas adjusted EBITDA is the EBITDA plus non-cash share-based compensation expenses and certain other costs. For the projected 2025 adjusted EBITDA information presented herein, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of this forward measure to the most comparable IFRS financial measure because the information for these measures is dependent on future events, many of which are outside of the Company’s control. Additionally, estimating such forward-looking measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company’s accounting policies for future periods is meaningfully difficult and requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-IFRS measures are estimated in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted in the Company’s adjusted EBITDA for historical periods.
