Rehovot, Israel, and Hoboken, NJ – March 6, 2024 -- Kamada Ltd. (NASDAQ: KMDA; TASE: KMDA.TA), a commercial stage 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 and year ended December 31, 2023.

“We are extremely pleased with the strong financial and operational momentum we experienced through 2023, which allowed us to achieve our full-year guidance,” said Amir London, Kamada’s Chief Executive Officer. “Total revenues for 2023 were $142.5 million, representing record annual revenues and 10% year-over-year growth, and adjusted EBITDA was $24.1 million, up 35% year-over-year. We continue to effectively leverage our growth drivers, including a significant increase in sales of our anti-rabies immunoglobulin product, KEDRAB® and the promotion of CYTOGAM®.”

“The growing increase in KEDRAB sales is expected to continue through 2024 and beyond. We recently signed an amendment and extension of our distribution agreement with Kedrion. This strategic agreement represents our largest commercial pact since Kamada’s inception, and within the first four years of the eight-year term, which commenced in January 2024, Kedrion is required to purchase minimum quantities of KEDRAB with total revenues to Kamada of approximately $180 million,” continued Mr. London.

“Looking ahead, we anticipate continued momentum through 2024, with double-digit top- and bottom-line growth. Specifically, we are introducing full-year 2024 revenue guidance of $156 million to $160 million and adjusted EBITDA guidance of $27 million to $30 million. We maintain the financial strength and flexibility to accelerate the growth and profitability of our existing business beyond 2024 at double-digit rates and pursue compelling new business development opportunities, a process we are actively engaged in and that would further enhance our future growth,” added Mr. London.

“We continue patient enrollment in our ongoing pivotal Phase 3 InnovAATe clinical trial for the inhaled Alpha-1 Antitrypsin therapy for the treatment of AAT Deficiency. Importantly, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently reconfirmed the overall design of the study, endorsed the independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board’s (DSMB) unblinded positive safety assessment, and accepted our plan to conduct an open-label extension study, expected to be initiated in mid-2024. The Agency also expressed willingness to potentially accept a P<0.1 alpha level in evaluating InnovAATe for meeting the efficacy primary endpoint for registration, which may allow for the acceleration of the program. As a result, we plan to present a revised statistical analysis plan (SAP) and study protocol for the InnovAATe study and to seek the FDA’s feedback by mid-2024,” concluded Mr. London.

Financial Highlights for the Year Ended December 31, 2023

● | Total revenues for 2023 were $142.5 million, a 10% increase from the $129.3 million generated in 2022. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to increased sales of KEDRAB to Kedrion due to increased market share and demand for the product in the U.S.

● | Gross profit and gross margins were $55.5 million and 39%, respectively, in the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $46.7 million and 36%, respectively, in 2022. Cost of goods sold in the Company’s Proprietary segment for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, included $5.4 million of amortization expenses associated with intangible assets generated through the IgG products acquisition.

● | Operating expenses, including Research and Development (“R&D”), Sales & Marketing (“S&M”), General and Administrative Expenses (“G&A”) and other expenses, totaled $45.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $42.2 million in the prior year. S&M costs for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, included $1.7 million of amortization expenses of intangible assets generated through the IgG products acquisition. The increase in operating expenses was attributable to an increase in S&M costs associated with the acquired portfolio commercial operation, as well as increased R&D costs, primarily due to advancing the pivotal Phase 3 InnovAATe trial for Inhaled AAT.

● | Net income for the year ended December 31, 2023, was $8.3 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $2.3 million, or $(0.05) per share, in the prior year.

● | Total revenues were $36.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $45.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The reduction in sales year-over-year was as a result of a significantly more balanced quarterly sales spread during 2023 compared to 2022.

● | Gross profit and gross margins were $14.4 million and 40%, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $15.3 million and 34%, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2022.

● | Operating expenses, including R&D, S&M, G&A and other expenses, totaled $11.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, as compared to $11.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. S&M costs for the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2022 included $0.4 million of amortization expenses of intangible assets generated through the IgG products acquisition.

● | Net income was $5.1 million, or $0.09 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2023, as compared to $2.9 million, or $0.07 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2022.

● | Adjusted EBITDA, as detailed in the tables below, was $6.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $7.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

● | Cash provided by operating activities was $6.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $6.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The change correlates to the changes in the Company’s working capital in support of expected growth.

● | Received feedback from the FDA related to the progress of the Inhaled AAT study. The FDA reconfirmed the overall design of the study and endorsed the independent DSMB’s unblinded positive safety assessment. The FDA expressed willingness to potentially accept a P<0.1 alpha level in evaluating InnovAATe for meeting the efficacy primary endpoint for registration. As a result, the Company plans to present a revised SAP and study protocol for the InnovAATe study and to seek the FDA’s feedback by mid-2024.

Non-IFRS financial measures

We 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 and adjusted EBITDA are 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, plus non-cash share-based compensation expenses and certain other costs.

For the projected 2024 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.
