2022 highlights include its acquisition of SancusoSancuso® and move to new headquarters
NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ --
Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CPIX), a specialty pharmaceutical company today announced full year 2022 financial results and provided a Company update. Net revenues grew 17% over the prior year to $42 million, resulting in $8 million in cash flow from operations.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company's total assets were $93 million, including $20 million in cash. Total liabilities were $57 million and total shareholders' equity was $36 million.
"We were able to manage our business in 2022 to deliver significant revenue growth despite facing external challenges in our operating environment," said A.J. Kazimi, Cumberland Pharmaceuticals CEO. "We were delighted to add and begin providing Sancuso
® in support of oncology patients, as we further expanded our portfolio of FDA-approved brands."
HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE YEAR INCLUDE:
New Headquarter Office Location
In the fourth quarter of 2022, Cumberland relocated its headquarters to the Broadwest campus in the Vanderbilt/West End corridor of Nashville. The new, state-of-the-art headquarters keeps the Company close to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, enabling their continued collaboration as Cumberland works to develop new medicines for the future.
The move also allows Cumberland to accommodate recent and future growth. Following the relocation, Cumberland expects to expand its organization to over 100 individuals, with a majority working from the Nashville headquarters. The move will help to support the Cumberland team, its patients, customers and partners.
2022 Sustainability Metrics
Cumberland continues to monitor and report on its activities and impact on the environmental, its employees and the community. The Company's key sustainability metrics for 2022 include:
Providing 2.2 million doses of products to patients
Safely disposing of over 2,750 pounds of expired or damaged products
No products recalled or clinical trial terminated due for not practicing good clinical standards.
® Acquisition
During 2022, Cumberland acquired and successfully completed the transition of Sancuso® from Japan-based Kyowa Kirin, Inc. – assuming responsibility for the brand's sales, distribution and promotion in the U.S. Sancuso is an FDA-approved prescription patch that prevents nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing certain types of chemotherapy.
To promote and support Sancuso, Cumberland formed a new sales division, Cumberland Oncology, comprised of former Kyowa Kirin sales representatives who brought extensive experience with the brand.
Caldolor
® International Update
In 2022, Cumberland announced its agreement with PiSA Pharmaceutical for the registration and commercialization of Caldolor, its non-narcotic pain relief product, in Mexico.
Under the terms of the agreement, Cumberland will be responsible for providing the product dossier and supplies. PiSA will be responsible for obtaining regulatory approval for the product in Mexico and introducing it to the new market.
Vibativ
® International Updates
In March 2022, Cumberland announced the launch of Vibativ in Puerto Rico. The announcement follows an agreement between Cumberland and Verity Pharmaceuticals that provides Verity the rights to introduce the product for patients in that market. Verity has a strong presence in Puerto Rico, which is in need of a product with Vibativ's features, as it has a large number of residents living with chronic diseases, like diabetes, that increase the risk of hospitalization and infections. Vibativ can serve as a potentially life-saving treatment in patients with hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated pneumonia resulting from infections including the flu and COVID-19.
Cumberland also announced a new partnership with Saudi Arabia-based Tabuk Pharmaceutical to introduce Vibativ into the Middle East. The arrangement provides Tabuk exclusive rights and obligations to distribute Vibativ in Saudi Arabia and Jordan, with the option to expand into other countries in the region. Tabuk is a fully owned subsidiary of the Astra Industrial Group, a leading and publicly traded conglomerate in Saudi Arabia.
In addition, Cumberland entered into an agreement with D.B. Pharm Korea to register and commercialize the Vibativ product in South Korea. The submission for approval is underway.
Cumberland's Vibativ partner for the Chinese market, SciClone Pharmaceuticals, had their approval application in China accepted for review in September 2021. During 2022, Cumberland continued to support SciClone and their requests associated with review of that submission.
Nordic Pharma RediTrex
® Agreement Restructured
In 2022, Cumberland restructured its agreement with Nordic Pharma, who previously provided Cumberland with the license for the U.S. rights associated with the RediTrex brand. Nordic Pharma will assume the responsibility for distributing the product in the U.S. after June 30, 2023.
In addition, Cumberland has transferred the marketing responsibilities associated with the brand to Nordic Pharma and will continue to distribute and support RediTrex during the transition period.
Ongoing Clinical Development
Cumberland continues to sponsor and progress three Phase II clinical programs featuring the Company's ifetroban product candidate. These studies involve patients with:
In addition, Cumberland has been working toward an application to the FDA for a fourth Phase II clinical program, which will evaluate the use of ifetroban to treat patients with Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Diseases.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS:
This press release contains forward-looking statements, which are subject to certain risks and reflect Cumberland's current views on future events based on what it believes are reasonable assumptions. No assurance can be given that these events will occur. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the Company's intent, belief or expectations, and can be identified by the use of terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "should," "seek," "anticipate," "look forward" and other comparable terms or the negative thereof. As with any business, all phases of Cumberland's operations are subject to factors outside of its control, and any one or combination of these factors could materially affect Cumberland's operation results. These factors include market conditions, competition, an inability of manufacturers to produce Cumberland's products on a timely basis, failure of manufacturers to comply with regulations applicable to pharmaceutical manufacturers, natural disasters, public health epidemics, maintaining an effective sales and marketing infrastructure, and other events beyond the Company's control as more fully discussed in its most recent 10-K as filed with the SEC, as well as the Company's other filings with the SEC from time to time.  There can be no assurance that results anticipated by the Company will be realized or that they will have the expected effects. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly revise these statements to reflect events after the date hereof.
The company provided the above adjusted supplemental financial performance measures, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others.
Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the company's reported results of operations, management encourages investors to review the company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.
Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes. In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the company's operating performance.
The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows:
Adjusted Earnings: net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of discontinued operations, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation, write-down of expired inventory, loan forgiveness and other income and interest expense.
(a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland.
(b) Represents the write-down of expired inventory.
(c) Represents the gain on insurance proceeds.
(d) Represents the forgiveness of the PPP Loan by the Small Business Administration.
Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted Earnings (loss) divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.
