BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J., Jan. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CorMedix Inc. (Nasdaq: CRMD), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for life-threatening diseases and conditions, today announces its preliminary unaudited fourth quarter results and provides an update on its business. These include the following key updates:

  • CorMedix announces preliminary, unaudited net revenue of approximately $31mm for Q4 2024 and approximately $43mm for FY 2024, and expects Q4 2024 adjusted EBITDA(1) to exceed $12mm.
  • The Company is shipping DefenCath to all three of its midsized dialysis operator (MDO) customers and has seen continuous ordering of increasing size throughout the quarter. CorMedix has more than $25mm of existing open purchase orders scheduled for delivery during the first quarter of 2025.
  • The CorMedix team is actively working with its Large Dialysis Operator (LDO) customer to begin DefenCath implementation in the first half of 2025, and hopes to achieve the LDO’s targeted patient utilization of 4,000 patients in H2 2025.
  • The Company today announces an expanded deployment effort in the inpatient hospital segment beginning in Q1 2025. The Company has engaged Syneos Health to build a dedicated inpatient field sales team that will exclusively promote DefenCath to hospitals and health systems. As part of this expanded inpatient deployment, the current field team which was covering both inpatient and outpatient segments is being reorganized, with existing field roles being transitioned or eliminated.
  • A final clinical study protocol for DefenCath in Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) was submitted to FDA in Q4, and study enrollment is expected to begin in H1 2025. The Company also expects patient enrollment in the pediatric study for DefenCath in pediatric hemodialysis to begin in H2 2025.
  • CorMedix estimates the expanded inpatient deployment and internal commercial realignment to be cost neutral on overall S&M expense in 2025, and announces preliminary operating expense guidance for FY 2025 of $72 – $78mm, excluding non-cash and one-time items, with the increase over 2024 spending levels largely driven by R&D spending on previously announced clinical initiatives.
  • The Company reports preliminary unaudited cash and short-term investments, as of December 31, 2024, of approximately $52 million.

Joe Todisco, CorMedix CEO, commented, “I’m proud to announce our preliminary Q4 results today, including surpassing our guidance of becoming breakeven by year-end 2024. CorMedix continues to execute well on our key objectives particularly around our outpatient launch, and I am pleased with the implementation efforts we have seen thus far from key customers in the outpatient segment. Today’s announcement of our agreement for inpatient expansion with Syneos Health reinforces our commitment to grow DefenCath across settings of care. I believe we begin 2025 in a strong position and look forward to updating investors as we continue to execute over the months ahead.”

The preliminary financial information presented in this press release is based on CorMedix’s current expectations and may be adjusted as a result of, among other things, the completion of our internal review process and the completion of customary annual audit procedures.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and excludes non-cash items such as stock based compensation and certain non-recurring items. The Company expects to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measure in its earnings release relating to the fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results. Such reconciliation is not included in this release because we are currently finalizing certain amounts that would be required to be included in the U.S. GAAP measure or the individual adjustments for such reconciliation.
