Conference Call Scheduled for Today at 4:30 p.m. ET
RAMSEY, N.J. and BOCA RATON, FL, November 7, 2024 - ADMA Biologics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADMA) ("ADMA," the "Company," or "we"), an end-to-end commercial biopharmaceutical company dedicated to manufacturing, marketing and developing specialty biologics, today announced its third quarter 2024
financial results and provided a business update.
"ADMA delivered an outstanding third quarter, building on the momentum from the prior period with realized growth on both the top and
bottom lines," said Adam Grossman, President and Chief Executive Officer of ADMA. "As we enter the fourth quarter of 2024, we anticipate increasing gross margins, driven by a continued revenue mix shift toward ASCENIV. With increasing clarity
around a potential billion-dollar revenue opportunity, ADMA's growth prospects over both the near- and longer-term periods continues to strengthen. As a result of our ongoing operational success, we have yet again raised our top and bottom-line
guidance for both 2024 and 2025."
Mr. Grossman continued, "With this forecasted growth, we anticipate organically achieving a net leverage-neutral position in the fourth quarter of 2024, which would
provide substantial balance sheet flexibility as we focus on maximizing stockholder value and lowering ADMA's cost of capital. Throughout the third quarter, we advanced our intermediate-term growth initiatives, including enhancements to production
yield processes and the successful production of a pilot-scale batch of our S. pneumoniae hyperimmune globulin pipeline program, SG-001. Additionally, we are pleased to
announce the appointment of KPMG LLP as our new independent auditor effective as of today. We thank CohnReznick for their 17 years of service and look forward to this next chapter with KPMG. We believe ADMA is well-positioned to close 2024 on a
high note and to sustain our rapid growth trajectory into 2025 and beyond."

Third Quarter 2024 Milestones and Objectives:
Upwardly Revised 2024-2025 Financial Guidance:
Advancing Innovative Growth Opportunities: Below are the Company's ongoing R&D initiatives which, if successful, we believe represent the potential for upside to our current forecasted guidance:
R&D Program - S. pneumoniae Hyperimmune Globulin, SG-001.
ADMA has successfully completed production of a pilot-scale batch, and we have identified a prospective laboratory partner and are engaged in discussions for their services conducting animal model studies for our S. pneumoniae hyperimmune globulin program, SG-001. We expect to establish research protocols for forthcoming animal studies, with a focus on capital efficiency. Streptococcus pneumoniae, the leading
cause of community-acquired pneumonia in the United States, affects one million adults annually, leading to 400,000 hospitalizations and a 5-7% mortality rate. Despite existing vaccines, vaccine-naive and immunocompromised individuals remain
vulnerable. SG-001, if approved, could offer immediate antibody protection, potentially generating $300-500 million or more in high margin revenue annually. ADMA holds several U.S. and foreign patents covering its proprietary pneumococcal
hyperimmune technology, including product preparation and usage for S. pneumoniae infections.
Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results:
Total revenues were $119.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $67.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of
$52.6 million, or approximately 78%. The increase is due to increased sales of ADMA's immunoglobulin products, primarily ASCENIV, as well as an increase in third-party plasma sales by ADMA's BioCenters business segment.
Gross profits were $59.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $24.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $35.0
million. As a result, ADMA achieved a corporate gross margin of 50% in the third quarter of 2024 as compared to 37% in the third quarter of 2023. Third quarter 2024 corporate gross margins were adversely impacted due to an outsized sale of normal
source plasma on the secondary spot market, which was recorded at a negative gross margin contribution.
Adjusted EBITDA was $45.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $12.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023,
an increase of $32.6 million, or approximately 256%.
GAAP net income was $35.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to GAAP net Income of $2.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an
As of September 30, 2024, ADMA had working capital of approximately $273.3 million, primarily consisting of $171.8 million of inventory, $86.7 million of cash and cash
equivalents and $50.1 million of net accounts receivable, partially offset by current liabilities of $44.9 million.

ASCENIV (immune globulin intravenous, human - slra 10% liquid) is a plasma-derived, polyclonal, intravenous immune globulin (IVIG). ASCENIV was approved by the United
States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in April 2019 and is indicated for the treatment of primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI), also known as primary immune deficiency disease (PIDD), in adults and adolescents (12 to 17 years of age). ASCENIV
is manufactured using ADMA's unique, patented plasma donor screening methodology and tailored plasma pooling design, which blends normal source plasma and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) plasma obtained from donors tested using the Company's
proprietary microneutralization assay. ASCENIV contains naturally occurring polyclonal antibodies, which are proteins that are used by the body's immune system to neutralize microbes such as bacteria and viruses that safeguard against infection and
disease. ASCENIV is protected by numerous issued patents in the United States and internationally and a wide range of patent applications worldwide. Certain data and other information about ASCENIV can be found by visiting www.asceniv.com.
Information about ADMA and its products can be found on the Company's website at www.admabiologics.com.
Additional Important Safety Information About ASCENIV
WARNING: THROMBOSIS, RENAL DYSFUNCTION AND ACUTE RENAL FAILURE
Thrombosis may occur with immune globulin intravenous (IGIV) products, including ASCENIV. Risk factors may include: advanced age, prolonged immobilization, hypercoagulable conditions, history of venous or arterial thrombosis, use of estrogens, indwelling vascular catheters, hyperviscosity, and cardiovascular risk factors. Renal dysfunction, acute renal failure, osmotic nephrosis, and death may occur with the administration of IGIV products in predisposed patients. Renal dysfunction and acute renal failure occur more commonly in patients receiving IGIV products containing sucrose. ASCENIV does not contain sucrose.
ASCENIV Contraindications:
History of anaphylactic or severe systemic reactions to human immunoglobulin.
IgA deficient patients with antibodies to IgA and a history of hypersensitivity.
ASCENIV Warnings and Precautions:
IgA-deficient patients with antibodies against IgA are at greater risk of developing severe hypersensitivity and anaphylactic reactions. Have medications such as
epinephrine available to treat any acute severe hypersensitivity reactions. [4, 5.1]
Thrombotic events have occurred in patients receiving IGIV treatments. Monitor patients with known risk factors for thrombotic events; consider baseline assessment of
blood viscosity for patients at risk of hyperviscosity. [5.2, 5.4]
In patients at risk of developing acute renal failure. monitor renal function, including blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine, and urine output. [5.3, 5.9]
Hyperproteinemia, increased serum viscosity, and hyponatremia or pseudohyponatremia can occur in patients receiving IGIV treatment.
Aseptic meningitis syndrome (AMS) has been reported with IGIV treatments, especially with high doses or rapid infusion. [5.5]
Hemolytic anemia can develop subsequent to IGIV treatment. Monitor patients for hemolysis and hemolytic anemia. [5.6]
Monitor patients for pulmonary adverse reactions (Transfusion-related acute lung injury [TRALI]). If transfusion related acute lung injury is suspected, test the
product and patient for antineutrophil antibodies. [5.7]
Because this product is made from human blood, it may carry a risk of transmitting infectious agents, e.g., viruses, and theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease
ASCENIV Adverse Reactions:
The most common adverse reactions to ASCENIV ( 5% of study subjects) were headache, sinusitis, diarrhea, gastroenteritis viral, nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory
tract infection, bronchitis, and nausea

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
("GAAP"). The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating the Company's financial performance. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure because we believe that it facilitates operating performance
comparisons from period to period that exclude potential differences driven by the impact of variations of non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, as well as stock-based compensation or certain non-recurring items. The Company
believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools used by our management and board of directors to assess our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and
the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company's financial performance. Accordingly, this key business metric has limitations as an analytical tool. It should not be considered as an
alternative to net income/loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Please refer to the tables below for the reconciliation of GAAP
measures to non-GAAP measures for applicable periods.
