Description of Business

Rockwell Medical, Inc. ("Rockwell Medical," "Rockwell" or the "Company") is a commercial-stage, biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing our next-generation parenteral iron technology platform, ferric pyrophosphate citrate (“FPC”), which we believe has the potential to lead to transformative treatments for iron deficiency in multiple disease states, that we believe could reduce healthcare costs and improve patients’ lives. We are also one of the two major suppliers of life saving hemodialysis concentrate products to kidney dialysis clinics in the United States.

We have two novel, FDA approved therapies, Triferic and Triferic AVNU, which are the first two products developed from our FPC platform. We are marketing both products to kidney dialysis centers for their patients receiving dialysis. In 2021, we intend to advance our FPC platform strategy outside of dialysis by starting a Phase II trial for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia in patients outside of dialysis, who are receiving long-term and or chronic intravenous medications for various therapeutic needs in the home infusion setting. In our R&D pipeline, we are also exploring FPC’s impact in the treatment of hospitalized patients with acute heart failure, with the potential to begin another Phase 2 trial in these patients in 2022.

We are the second largest supplier of hemodialysis concentrates in the United States generating approximately $60 million in annual revenue. The Company's reputation for excellent service, quality, and reliability is based on over 25 years of service to kidney dialysis centers. Our approximately 300 dedicated employees, as well as a management team with experience in manufacturing, logistics, pharmaceutical development and commercialization gives us a solid foundation upon which to grow.
