STOUGHTON, Mass., January 4, 2023 -- Collegium Pharmaceutical, Inc. (Nasdaq: COLL), a leading, diversified specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced its 2023 full-year financial guidance and provided a business update.

“2022 was a pivotal year for Collegium. We achieved the first two phases of our Three Phase Action Agenda, which included integrating BDSI, completing Xtampza^® ER contract renegotiations to ensure gross-to-net of less than 65%, and generating momentum across our differentiated and distinctly positioned pain portfolio,” said Joe Ciaffoni, President and Chief Executive Officer of Collegium. “With these accomplishments, 2023 is set to be a banner year. We are focused on executing Phase 3, Accelerate, building our leadership position in responsible pain management, and deploying capital to maximize shareholder value.”

“Driven by Xtampza ER and Belbuca^®, we expect to immediately accelerate revenue growth making 2023 a banner year for Collegium. With our fully synergized cost structure, we expect significant bottom-line expansion, with adjusted EBITDA expected to grow at over four times the rate of adjusted operating expenses,” said Colleen Tupper, Chief Financial Officer of Collegium. “We are committed to deploying capital in a disciplined manner with business development as our highest priority. We plan to continue rapidly paying down debt and opportunistically returning capital to shareholders through our new $100 million share repurchase program.”

Recent Business Highlights

● Collegium’s board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program for 2023 to repurchase up to $100 million in common stock

● Returned $19.1 million in capital to shareholders in 2022 under the share repurchase program authorized by Collegium’s board of directors in August 2021, including $4.0 million repurchased since November 3, 2022

● In December 2022, the Federal Circuit upheld the judgment of the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware that certain claims of the patents protecting Belbuca are valid. Collegium expects that, by virtue of the Federal Circuit’s decision, Alvogen will be barred from entering the market with its product until 2032

● Completed Xtampza ER contract renegotiations in 2022, maintaining broad access while significantly decreasing rebates; Xtampza ER gross-to-net is expected to be in the range of 61% to 63% in 2023

Financial Guidance for 2023

● Product revenues, net are expected in the range of $565.0 million to $580.0 million

● Adjusted operating expenses (excluding stock-based compensation) are expected in the range of $135.0 million to $145.0 million

● Adjusted EBITDA (excluding stock-based compensation) is expected in the range of $355.0 million to $370.0 million

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have included information about certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to understand, manage and evaluate our business as we believe they provide additional information on the performance of our business. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, taken in conjunction with our results under GAAP, provide analysts, investors, lenders and other third parties insight into our view and assessment of our ongoing operating performance. In addition, we believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, where applicable, provide supplementary information that may be useful to analysts, investors, lenders, and other third parties in assessing our performance and results from period to period. We report these non-GAAP financial measures to portray the results of our operations prior to considering certain income statement elements. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, net income or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

In this press release we discuss the following financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income 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, 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;

● we exclude stock-based compensation expense from adjusted EBITDA although (a) 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 (b) 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;

● 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 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 consist of financial advisory, banking, legal, and regulatory fees, and other consulting fees, incurred to complete an acquisition, employee-related expenses (severance cost and benefits) for terminated employees after the acquisition, and miscellaneous other acquisition expenses incurred; and

● 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.

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.

We have not provided a reconciliation of our full-year 2023 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 we are 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 we are 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 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.

See full prescribing Information and other s erious risks at Symproic.com/#isi .. 31 Important Safety Information about SYMPROIC ( naldemedine ) tablets INDICATIONS AND USAGE SYMPROIC is indicated for the treatment of opioid - induced constipation (OIC) in adult patients with chronic non - cancer pain, inc luding patients with chronic pain related to prior cancer or its treatment who do not require frequent (e.g., weekly) opioid dosage escalation. CONTRAINDICATIONS SYMPROIC is contraindicated in: • Patients with known or suspected gastrointestinal obstruction and patients at increased risk of recurrent obstruction, due to th e potential for gastrointestinal perforation • Patients with a history of a hypersensitivity reaction to Naldemedine .. Reactions have included bronchospasm and rash WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Gastrointestinal Perforation: Cases of gastrointestinal perforation have been reported with use of another peripherally acting opioid antagonist in patient s w ith conditions that may be associated with localized or diffuse reduction of structural integrity in the wall of the gastrointestinal tract (e.g., peptic ulcer dis eas e, Ogilvie’s syndrome, diverticular disease, infiltrative gastrointestinal tract malignancies, or peritoneal metastases). Take into account the overall risk - benefit profile when using SYMPROIC in patients with these conditions or other conditions which might result in impaired integrity of the gastrointestinal tract wall (e.g., Crohn’s disease). Monitor for the development of severe, persistent, or w ors ening abdominal pain; discontinue SYMPROIC in patients who develop this symptom. Opioid Withdrawal: Clusters of symptoms consistent with opioid withdrawal, including hyperhidrosis, chills, increased lacrimation, hot flush/flu shi ng, pyrexia, sneezing, feeling cold, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting have occurred in patients treated with SYMPROIC. Patients having disruptions to the blood - brain b arrier may be at increased risk for opioid withdrawal or reduced analgesia. Take into account the overall risk - benefit profile and monitor for symptoms of opioid withdrawal when using SYMPROIC in such patients. ADVERSE REACTIONS • The most common adverse reactions with SYMPROIC compared to placebo in two pooled 12 - week studies were: abdominal pain (8% vs 2% ), diarrhea (7% vs 2%), nausea (4% vs 2%), and gastroenteritis (2% vs 1%). • The incidence of adverse reactions of opioid withdrawal in two pooled 12 - week studies was 1% (8/542) for SYMPROIC and 1% (3/546) for placebo. In a 52 - week study, the incidence was 3% (20/621) for SYMPROIC and 1% (9/619) for placebo. OVERDOSAGE Single doses of Naldemedine up to 100 mg (500 times the recommended dose) and multiple doses of up to 30 mg (150 times the recommended dose) for 10 days ha ve been administered to healthy subjects in clinical studies. Dose - dependent increases in gastrointestinal - related adverse reactions, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nausea, were observed. Single doses of Naldemedine up to 3 mg (15 times the recommended dose) and multiple doses of 0.4 mg (twice the recommended dose) for 28 days have been administ ere d to patients with OIC in clinical studies. Dose dependent increases in gastrointestinal - related adverse reactions, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting, were observed .. Also, chills, hyperhidrosis, and dizziness were reported more frequently at 1 and 3 mg doses and hyperhidrosis at the 0.4 mg dose. No antidote for Naldemedine is known. Hemodialysis is not an effective means to remove Naldemedine from the blood. SYMPROIC ( naldemedine ) tablets

There is a potential for opioid withdrawal in a fetus when SYMPROIC is used in pregnant women .. SYMPROIC should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk .. Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions Naldemedine crosses the placenta and may precipitate opioid withdrawal in a fetus due to the immature fetal blood - brain barrier. Lactation There is no information regarding the presence of Naldemedine in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production .. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, including opioid withdrawal in breastfed infants, a decision should be made to discontinue breastfeeding or discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother .. If drug is discontinued in order to minimize drug exposure to a breastfed infant, advise women that breastfeeding may be resumed 3 days after the final dose of SYMPROIC .. Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of SYMPROIC have not been established in pediatric patients .. Geriatric Use Of the 1163 patients exposed to SYMPROIC in clinical studies, 183 ( 16 % ) were 65 years of age and over, while 37 ( 3 % ) were 75 years and over .. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness between these and younger patients were observed, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out .. In a population pharmacokinetic analysis, no age - related alterations in the pharmacokinetics of Naldemedine were observed .. Hepatic Impairment The effect of severe hepatic impairment (Child - Pugh Class C) on the pharmacokinetics of Naldemedine has not been evaluated .. Avoid use of SYMPROIC in patients with severe hepatic impairment .. No dose adjustment of SYMPROIC is required in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment ..
