On November 6, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company appointed Vikram Karnani to serve as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, effective November 12, 2024 (the “Effective Date”).

As of the Effective Date, Mr. Karnani will serve as the Company’s principal executive officer, succeeding Michael Heffernan, who will continue to serve as the Company’s Chairman of the Board.
Mr. Karnani, age 50, previously served as Executive Vice President and President, Global Commercial Operations and Medical Affairs at Amgen Inc. (“Amgen”), a global biotechnology company. Mr. Karnani joined Amgen in October 2023 through Amgen’s acquisition of Horizon Therapeutics plc (“Horizon”).

Subject to Mr. Karnani’s continuous service through the applicable vesting dates and subject to the terms of the Plan, the PSUs will have a three-year performance period commencing January 1, 2025 and will vest based upon the Compensation Committee’s determination of the satisfaction of relative total shareholder return performance criteria to be set by the Board.
Upon a termination of Mr. Karnani’s employment without “cause” (as defined in the Agreement) by the Company or resignation for “good reason” (as defined in the Agreement), subject to, among other terms, Mr. Karnani’s execution of the “release” (as defined in the Agreement), Mr. Karnani is entitled to receive (i) payment of any annual bonus otherwise payable (but for the cessation of Mr. Karnani’s employment) with respect to a year ended prior to the cessation of employment; (ii) continuation of his base salary for eighteen (18) months; (iii) waiver of the applicable premium otherwise payable for COBRA continuation coverage for Mr. Karani for eighteen (18) months, (iv) payment equal to (a) Mr. Karnani’s target bonus multiplied by (b) 1.5, paid in eighteen (18) substantially equal installments over an eighteen-month period and in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices; (v) accelerated vesting of any unvested equity awards that are solely subject to time-based vesting criteria equal to what would have vested had Mr. Karnani remained employed for eighteen (18) additional months; and (vi) accelerated vesting of any unvested equity awards that are subject to performance-based vesting criteria equal to what would have vested in connection with any annual or cumulative performance vesting period that ends during the eighteen (18) month period immediately following such termination of Mr. Karnani’s employment, such determination to be made by the Compensation Committee in its reasonable discretion.
Upon a termination of Mr. Karani’s employment without cause or for good reason within the one (1) month period prior to or the twelve (12) month period immediately following a “change in control” (as defined in the Agreement), subject to, among other terms, Mr. Karani’s execution of the release, then (i) all of Mr. Karnani’s unvested equity awards that are subject only to time-based vesting will become immediately and automatically fully vested and exercisable (as applicable); (ii) in lieu of continuation of Mr. Karnani’s salary for eighteen (18) months, Mr. Karnani shall receive two (2) times his base salary, paid in a lump sum; (iii) in lieu of any other bonus payment, Mr. Karnani shall receive two (2) times his target bonus payable in a lump sum; and (iv) Mr. Karani will be entitled to waiver of the applicable premium otherwise payable for COBRA continuation coverage for Mr. Karani for twenty-four (24) months in lieu of eighteen (18) months (provided that if such COBRA continuation period expires after eighteen (18) months under applicable law, the Company will instead pay to Mr. Karani a taxable lump sum payment equal to six (6) months of the monthly COBRA premium then in effect).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we have included information about certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide analysts, investors, lenders, and other third parties with insights into how we evaluate normal operational activities, including our ability to generate cash from operations, on a comparable year-over-year basis and manage our budgeting and forecasting. In addition, certain non-GAAP financial measures, primarily adjusted EBITDA, are used to measure performance when determining components of annual compensation for substantially all non-sales force employees, including senior management.
We may discuss the following financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP in our quarterly and annual reports, earnings press releases, and conference calls.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude interest expense, interest income, the benefit from or provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other adjustments to reflect changes that occur in our business but do not represent ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA, as used by us, may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
There are several limitations related to the use of adjusted EBITDA rather than net income or loss, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent, such as:
· | adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated or amortized may have to be replaced in the future, the cash requirements for which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA; |
· | adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; |
· | adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the benefit from or provision for income taxes or the cash requirements to pay taxes; |
· | adjusted EBITDA does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
· | we exclude stock-based compensation expense from adjusted EBITDA although: (i) it has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy; and (ii) if we did not pay out a portion of our compensation in the form of stock-based compensation, the cash salary expense included in operating expenses would be higher, which would affect our cash position; |
· | we exclude impairment expenses from adjusted EBITDA and, although these are non-cash expenses, the asset(s) being impaired may have to be replaced in the future, the cash requirements for which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA; |
· | we exclude restructuring expenses from adjusted EBITDA. Restructuring expenses primarily include employee severance and contract termination costs that are not related to acquisitions. The amount and/or frequency of these restructuring expenses are not part of our underlying business; |
· | we exclude litigation settlements from adjusted EBITDA, as well as any applicable income items or credit adjustments due to subsequent changes in estimates. This does not include our legal fees to defend claims, which are expensed as incurred; |
· | we exclude acquisition related expenses as the amount and/or frequency of these expenses are not part of our underlying business. Acquisition related expenses include transaction costs, which primarily consisted of financial advisory, banking, legal, and regulatory fees, and other consulting fees, incurred to complete the acquisition, employee-related expenses (severance cost and benefits) for terminated employees after the acquisition, and miscellaneous other acquisition related expenses incurred; |
· | we exclude recognition of the step-up basis in inventory from acquisitions (i.e., the adjustment to record inventory from historic cost to fair value at acquisition) as the adjustment does not reflect the ongoing expense associated with sale of our products as part of our underlying business; |
· | we exclude losses on extinguishments of debt as these expenses are episodic in nature and do not directly correlate to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis; and |
· | we exclude other expenses, from time to time, that are episodic in nature and do not directly correlate to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis. |
Adjusted Operating Expenses
Adjusted operating expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP operating expenses adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, and other adjustments to reflect changes that occur in our business but do not represent ongoing operations.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share
Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude significant income and expense items that are non-cash or not indicative of ongoing operations, including consideration of the tax effect of the adjustments. Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents adjusted net income per share. Adjusted weighted-average shares - diluted is calculated in accordance with the treasury stock, if-converted, or contingently issuable accounting methods, depending on the nature of the security.
Reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in this press release.
The Company has not provided a reconciliation of its full-year 2024 guidance for adjusted EBITDA or adjusted operating expenses to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, because the Company is unable to predict, without unreasonable efforts, the timing and amount of items that would be included in such a reconciliation, including, but not limited to, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition related expense and litigation settlements. These items are uncertain and depend on various factors that are outside of the Company’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. While the Company is unable to address the probable significance of these items, they could have a material impact on GAAP net income and operating expenses for the guidance period. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA or adjusted operating expenses would imply a degree of precision and certainty as to these future items that does not exist and could be confusing to investors.

Any forward-looking statements that we make in this presentation speak only as of the date of this presentation. We assume no obligation to update our forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this presentation. Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we have included information about certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide analysts, investors, lenders, and other third parties with insights into how we evaluate normal operational activities, including our ability to generate cash from operations, on a comparable year-over-year basis and manage our budgeting and forecasting. In addition, certain non-GAAP financial measures, primarily Adjusted EBITDA, are used to measure performance when determining components of annual compensation for substantially all non-sales force employees, including senior management. In this presentation, we discuss the following financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude interest expense, interest income, the benefit from or provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other adjustments to reflect changes that occur in our business but do not represent ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA, as used by us, may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. There are several limitations related to the use of adjusted EBITDA rather than net income or loss, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent, such as: • adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated or amortized may have to be replaced in the future, the cash requirements for which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA; • adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; • adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the benefit from or provision for income taxes or the cash requirements to pay taxes; • adjusted EBITDA does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; • we exclude stock-based compensation expense from adjusted EBITDA although: (i) it has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy; and (ii) if we did not pay out a portion of our compensation in the form of stock-based compensation, the cash salary expense included in operating expenses would be higher, which would affect our cash position; • we exclude impairment expenses from adjusted EBITDA and, although these are non-cash expenses, the asset(s) being impaired may have to be replaced in the future, the cash requirements for which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA; • we exclude restructuring expenses from adjusted EBITDA. Restructuring expenses primarily include employee severance and contract termination costs that are not related to acquisitions. The amount and/or frequency of these restructuring expenses are not part of our underlying business; • we exclude litigation settlements from adjusted EBITDA, as well as any applicable income items or credit adjustments due to subsequent changes in estimates. This does not include our legal fees to defend claims, which are expensed as incurred; • we exclude acquisition related expenses as the amount and/or frequency of these expenses are not part of our underlying business. Acquisition related expenses include transaction costs, which primarily consisted of financial advisory, banking, legal, and regulatory fees, and other consulting fees, incurred to complete the acquisition, employee-related expenses (severance cost and benefits) for terminated employees after the acquisition, and miscellaneous other acquisition related expenses incurred; • we exclude recognition of the step-up basis in inventory from acquisitions (i.e., the adjustment to record inventory from historic cost to fair value at acquisition) as the adjustment does not reflect the ongoing expense associated with sale of our products as part of our underlying business; • we exclude losses on extinguishments of debt as these expenses are episodic in nature and do not directly correlate to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis; and • we exclude other expenses, from time to time, that are episodic in nature and do not directly correlate to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis. Adjusted Operating Expenses Adjusted operating expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP operating expenses adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, and other adjustments to reflect changes that occur in our business but do not represent ongoing operations. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude significant income and expense items that are non-cash or not indicative of ongoing operations, including consideration of the tax effect of the adjustments. Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents adjusted net income per share. Adjusted weighted-average shares - diluted is calculated in accordance with the treasury stock, if-converted, or contingently issuable accounting methods, depending on the nature of the security. Reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in this presentation. The Company has not provided a reconciliation of its full-year 2024 guidance for adjusted EBITDA or adjusted operating expenses to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, because the Company is unable to predict, without unreasonable efforts, the timing and amount of items that would be included in such a reconciliation, including, but not limited to, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition related expense and litigation settlements. These items are uncertain and depend on various factors that are outside of the Company’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. While the Company is unable to address the probable significance of these items, they could have a material impact on GAAP net income and operating expenses for the guidance period. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA or adjusted operating expenses would imply a degree of precision and certainty as to these future items that does not exist and could be confusing to investors. |
