RMS Medical Products Announces 2019 First Quarter Financial Results

Repro Med Systems, Inc. dba RMS Medical Products (OTCQX: REPR) (“RMS Medical”) today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 (“Q1 2019”).

CHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Repro Med Systems, Inc. dba RMS Medical Products (OTCQX: REPR) (“RMS Medical”) today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 (“Q1 2019”).

“The operational momentum we created in 2018 continued into Q1 2019,” said Don Pettigrew, President and CEO of RMS Medical. “We reported record quarterly net sales of $5.0 million, continued to expand our presence in the primary immunodeficiency diseases, or PIDD, and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, or CIDP, markets, and maintained a strong financial position. In April, we received 510(k) clearance for our HIgh-Flo Super26™ Subcutaneous Needle Sets, reflecting our continuing focus on broadening RMS Medical’s portfolio of infusion products to improve the patient experience.”

Mr. Pettigrew concluded, “The investments we are making in our leadership, personnel, products, and processes support our vision of becoming the preferred drug delivery partner for specific infusion therapies in select markets.”

Q1 2019 Overview

Net sales rose 23.3% to $5.0 million in Q1 2019 from $4.0 million in Q1 2018, driven primarily by RMS Medical’s focus on expanding its base of national accounts, growth in the PIDD market, and expansion into the neurology market following the 2018 approval of Hizentra® to treat CIDP.

Gross profit in Q1 2019 was $3.0 million, or 61.3% of net sales, compared to $2.5 million, or 61.1% of net sales, in Q1 2018. While gross profit dollars increased by approximately $0.6 million, gross margin remained consistent with last year’s first quarter.

Total operating expenses for Q1 2019 rose to $3.2 million from $2.0 million in Q1 2018. The increase of $1.2 million, the majority of which is included in selling, general & administrative expenses, reflected higher legal fees related to ongoing litigation with a competitor, expenses associated with the previously announced executive management changes (which RMS believes have been fully realized as of March 31, 2019), and stock compensation expenses. Total operating expenses for Q1 2019 also included a $0.1 million increase in research and development expenses compared to the prior year period associated with increased headcount and expanded product development activity as we begin to invest in innovation.

Net loss for Q1 2019 was $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in Q1 2018. The loss for the Q1 2019 was due to the above-referenced increase in expenses.

Q1 2019 Adjusted EBITDA rose to $0.9 million, or 18.7% of net sales, from $0.8 million, or 20.8% of net sales, in Q1 2018. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from net loss: tax (benefit)/expense, depreciation and amortization, interest income, operating expenses associated with the Company's organizational changes, litigation costs, and stock compensation expense.

The Company used $1.0 million in cash from operating activities during Q1 2019, due primarily to a change in payment terms from net 30 days to net 60 days by one of its major distributors and increased inventory to build stock to keep pace with anticipated sales growth.

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, nor an alternate to, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material effect on our reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate our financial results. The non-GAAP financial measures are meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, GAAP financial results. A reconciliation of our non-GAAP measures is included in an attachment to this press release.
