  • Rockwell Medical reiterates projected 2023 net sales to be between $82.0 million and $86.0 million, an increase of 17% to 18% year-over-year, and projected 2023 gross profit to between $8.0 million and $10.0 million, an increase of 95% to 144% year-over-year.

Rockwell Medical, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: RMTI), a healthcare company that develops, manufactures, commercializes, and distributes a portfolio of hemodialysis products to dialysis providers worldwide, today announced financial and operational results for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

"Since we started implementing our new focused business strategy a little over a year ago, we have successfully completed two acquisitions, aligned our cost structure, and are on track to meet our revenue and profitability expectations for this year," said Mark Strobeck, Ph.D., Rockwell Medical’s President and CEO. "During the third quarter of 2023, Rockwell Medical became the leading supplier of liquid bicarbonate hemodialysis concentrates in the United States and now services approximately one-third of all purchasing facilities, including outpatient dialysis clinics and hospitals. Additionally, Rockwell Medical continues to evaluate potential business development opportunities that could continue to strengthen our existing hemodialysis concentrates business and potentially enable Rockwell Medical to expand into new product categories and markets."

Third Quarter 2023 Operating Highlights

  • Rockwell Medical completed its second acquisition during the third quarter of 2023, acquiring the hemodialysis concentrates assets from Evoqua Water Technologies. Evoqua's operations are fully automated and afford Rockwell Medical the potential to manufacture its hemodialysis concentrates products at a lower cost and add significant capacity to the Company's production line. By assuming responsibility for Evoqua’s concentrates customer contracts, Rockwell Medical has further expanded its footprint in the United States and assumed a larger share of the already growing hemodialysis concentrates market. Additionally, the Company is now the leading supplier of liquid bicarbonate products to dialysis centers in the United States.
  • Rockwell Medical entered into an amended and restated products purchase agreement with its largest customer. Under the agreement, Rockwell Medical and the customer agreed to an increase in product pricing, effective September 1, 2023 and continuing until December 31, 2024, and a one-time payment to Rockwell Medical on or after December 1, 2023. The customer has the option to further extend the term through December 31, 2025. In the event of such an extension, product pricing will be increased for the extended term.
  • Rockwell Medical entered into several three-year product purchase agreements with new and existing customers including Centers for Dialysis Care, Houston Methodist, and Sanderling Renal Services.
  • Rockwell Medical appointed Joan Lau, Ph.D. to the Company's Board of Directors. Dr. Lau has more than 20 years’ experience in executive leadership of R&D focused biopharma as an entrepreneur scientist, CEO, operator, investor, and board member of public and private biopharmaceutical companies.
  • Rockwell Medical named Jesse Neri as Senior Vice President, Finance. Mr. Neri has more than 20 years’ experience leading finance functions at both public and private companies.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights

  • Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $23.8 million, representing a 31% increase over the second quarter of 2023 and a 27% increase over $18.7 million for the same period in 2022. Concentrates product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $21.6 million, the highest quarterly concentrates product sales generated to-date for the Company. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $61.5 million, representing a 15% increase over the same period in 2022.
  • Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $2.2 million, representing an increase of $1.2 million over the second quarter of 2023 and a 183% increase over the same period in 2022. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $5.8 million, representing a 236% increase over the same period in 2022.
  • Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was 9%, representing an increase from 6% in the second quarter of 2023 and 4% for the same period in 2022. Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 9%, compared with 3% for the same period in 2022.
  • Rockwell Medical undertook workforce and cost reductions as part of its continued business restructuring. Operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $1.7 million, representing a 53% decrease from an operating loss of $3.7 million for the same period in 2022. Operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $6.1 million, representing a 59% decrease from an operating loss of $14.8 million for the same period in 2022.
  • Cash and cash equivalents and investments available-for-sale at September 30, 2023 was $11.7 million compared to cash and cash equivalents and investments available-for-sale of $14.9 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease in cash for the third quarter of 2023 included a $0.5 million principal payment to reduce the Company's outstanding debt and a $4 million increase in the Company's accounts receivable primarily related to the Evoqua asset acquisition. The Company anticipates collection of these receivables in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • Rockwell Medical's outstanding debt at the end of the third quarter of 2023 was $9.5 million. The Company projects its outstanding debt at year-end 2023 will be $8.0 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Rockwell Medical’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, which are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), this press release also includes references to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income (loss) before net interest income (expense), net other income (expense), income tax expenses (benefit), depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, stock-based compensation expense, and other items that are considered unusual or not representative of underlying trends of our business, including but not limited to one-time severance costs, deferred revenue and inventory reserve amounts, if applicable for the periods presented. The Company has provided a reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA at the end of this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by Rockwell Medical to understand and evaluate operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve its annual budget and to develop short- and long-term operating plans. The Company provides Adjusted EBITDA because it believes the metric is helpful in highlighting trends in its operating results because it excludes items that are not indicative of Rockwell Medical’s core operating performance. In particular, the Company believes that the exclusion of the items eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA provides useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of Rockwell Medical’s business.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies, including companies in the same industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA as a tool for comparison. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures rather than net loss, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. When evaluating the Company’s performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including net loss and other GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is our best proxy for cash burn.
