THIRD QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE ⁽¹⁾

Revenues

The Company uses the following categories in discussing revenues:

• Naloxone — comprises contributions from NARCAN^® Nasal Spray and KLOXXADO^® Nasal Spray
• Anthrax MCM — comprises contributions from CYFENDUS^®, previously known as AV7909, BioThrax^®, Anthrasil^® and Raxibacumab
• Smallpox MCM — comprises contributions from ACAM2000^®, CNJ-016^® (VIGIV) and TEMBEXA^®
• Other Products — comprises contributions from BAT^® and RSDL^{® (3)}
• All Other Revenues — comprises revenues from the Services operating segment and contracts and grants revenues

Product Sales, net ⁽⁴⁾

Naloxone

For Q3 2025, revenues from Naloxone products decreased $20.4 million, or 21%, as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower sales of OTC NARCAN^® and lower Canadian sales of branded NARCAN^®, primarily driven by an unfavorable price and volume mix, partially offset by an increase in KLOXXADO^® sales.

Anthrax MCM

For Q3 2025, revenues from Anthrax MCM products decreased $10.0 million, or 88%, as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease primarily reflects the impact of timing of USG sales of BioThrax^® as well as timing of international sales of CYFENDUS^® in the prior year period. Anthrax vaccine product sales are primarily made under annual purchase options exercised by the U.S. Government (“USG”). Fluctuations in revenues result from the timing of the exercise of annual purchase options, the timing of USG purchases, the availability of governmental funding and Company delivery of orders that follow.

Smallpox MCM

For Q3 2025, revenues from Smallpox MCM products decreased $49.1 million, or 37%, as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower USG ACAM2000^® and CNJ-016^® (VIGIV) sales due to timing, partially offset by an increase in international CNJ-016^® (VIGIV), ACAM2000^®, and TEMBEXA^® sales. Fluctuations in revenues from Smallpox MCM result from the timing of the exercise of annual purchase options in the existing procurement contracts, the timing of USG purchases, the availability of governmental funding and Company delivery of orders that follow.

Other Products

For Q3 2025, revenues from Other Product sales increased $27.4 million, or 91%, as compared with Q3 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher USG BAT^® sales due to timing, partially offset by a decrease in international sales orders.

All Other Revenues

Services

For Q3 2025, revenues from Services decreased $9.7 million, or 68%, as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in revenue from the Company’s Camden facility in the current year period, which was sold to Bora Pharmaceuticals in the third quarter of 2024, partially offset by an increase in production at the Company’s Winnipeg facility.

Contracts and Grants

For Q3 2025, revenues from contracts and grants decreased $0.9 million, or 9%, as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease was due to declines in overall funded R&D projects, partially offset by an increase in development work in connection with Ebanga™.

Operating Expenses

Cost of Product and Services Sales, Net

For Q3 2025, cost of product and services sales, net decreased $36.7 million, or 30%, as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease was driven by decreases in cost of Services of $16.2 million, cost of MCM Product sales of $15.9 million and cost of Commercial Product sales of $4.6 million.

Research and Development Expenses

For Q3 2025, R&D expenses decreased $0.3 million, or 2% as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in overhead and severance related costs, partially offset by an increase in unfunded R&D project spend and in Ebanga™ related development work.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

For Q3 2025, SG&A expenses decreased $37.7 million, or 49%, as compared with Q3 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the absence of a one-time expense of $10.0 million recognized in the prior year period and the receipt of a one-time reimbursement of $10.5 million in the current year period related to settlements of our securities and shareholder litigation matters. These non-recurring items were coupled with decreases in compensation and other employee related expenses as a result of the restructuring initiatives that began during the first quarter of 2023, and lower marketing, professional services and legal expenses.

ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION⁽¹⁾

Capital Expenditures

For Q3 2025, capital expenditures decreased largely due to lower development activities across the Company’s facilities.

REPORTABLE SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company manages the business with a focus on three operating segments: (1) a Commercial Products segment consisting of NARCAN^® Nasal Spray and KLOXXADO^® Nasal Spray, which product is currently being integrated into our distribution network, NARCANDirect^®; (2) a MCM Products segment consisting of Anthrax – MCM, Smallpox – MCM and Other products and (3) a services segment consisting of our Bioservices offerings (“Services”). Commercial Products and MCM Products are our two reportable segments. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company’s determined that its Services operating segment no longer meets the quantitative thresholds of a reportable segment and did not meet the aggregation criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting, and as such is categorized within “All other revenues” along with “Contracts and Grants”. The Company evaluates the performance of these reportable segments based on revenues and segment adjusted gross margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Segment revenue includes external customer sales, but does not include inter-segment services. The Company does not allocate contracts and grants revenue, R&D, SG&A, amortization of intangible assets, interest and other income (expense) or taxes to its evaluation of the performance of these segments.

THIRD QUARTER 2025 REPORTABLE SEGMENT RESULTS

Cost of Commercial Product sales decreased $4.6 million, or 10%, to $42.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of OTC NARCAN^® and lower Canadian sales of branded NARCAN^®, partially offset by an increase in KLOXXADO^® sales

Commercial Products gross margin decreased $15.8 million, or 41%, to $22.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Commercial Products gross margin percentage decreased 10 percentage points to 31% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was largely due to lower sales of OTC NARCAN^® and lower branded NARCAN^® sales, as well as an unfavorable price and volume mix, partially offset by an increase in KLOXXADO^® sales. Commercial Products segment adjusted gross margin in the current year period excludes the impact of intangible asset amortization of $9.4 million.

Cost of MCM product sales decreased $15.9 million, or 29%, to $38.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower production costs of ACAM2000^®, BioThrax^®, and CNJ-016^® (VIGIV), reflecting reduced volumes, combined with favorable manufacturing variances due to lower shut-down and severance costs, partially offset by an increase in costs related to higher BAT^® sales volume.

MCM Product gross margin decreased $15.8 million, or 14%, to $97.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. MCM Product gross margin percentage increased 3 percentage points to 68% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily due to a favorable sales mix which was weighted more heavily towards higher margin products and a decrease in shutdown and severance related costs compared with the third quarter of 2024. MCM Product segment adjusted gross margin in the current year period excludes the impacts of intangible asset amortization of $6.9 million and restructuring costs of $0.2 million.

YTD 2025 REPORTABLE SEGMENT RESULTS

Cost of Commercial Product sales decreased $49.2 million, or 32%, to $103.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of OTC NARCAN^® and lower Canadian sales of branded NARCAN^®, partially offset by an increase in KLOXXADO^® sales.

Commercial Products gross margin decreased $96.9 million, or 63%, to $55.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Commercial Products gross margin percentage decreased 16 percentage points to 30% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was largely due to lower sales of OTC NARCAN^® and lower branded NARCAN^® sales, as well as an unfavorable price, volume and product mix, partially offset by an increase in KLOXXADO^® sales. Commercial Products segment adjusted gross margin in the current year period excludes the impact of intangible asset amortization of $28.3 million and restructuring costs of $0.2 million.

Cost of MCM product sales decreased $33.2 million, or 23%, to $114.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower productions costs of CYFENDUS^®, BioThrax^®, and ACAM2000^® reflecting reduced volumes, no RSDL^® related costs in 2025 due to the sale of RSDL^® to SERB in the third quarter of 2024, combined with favorable manufacturing variances mostly due to lower shut-down and severance costs and lower Raxibacumab inventory reserves. These decreases were partially offset by higher costs for Anthrasil^®, TEMBEXA^®, CNJ-016^® (VIGIV) sales due to higher unit volume.

MCM Product gross margin decreased $2.3 million, or 1%, to $222.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. MCM Product gross margin percentage increased 5 percentage points to 62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily due to a favorable sales mix which was weighted more heavily towards higher margin products and a decrease in shutdown and severance costs compared with the prior year period. MCM Product segment adjusted gross margin in the current year period excludes the impacts of intangible asset amortization of $20.5 million, inventory step-up provision of $1.8 million and restructuring costs of $(1.0) million.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In the accompanying analysis of financial information, we sometimes use information derived from consolidated and segment financial information that may not be presented in our financial statements or prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain of these financial measures are considered not in conformity with GAAP (“non-GAAP financial measures”) under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. Specifically, we have referred to the following non-GAAP financial measures:

• Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
• Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share
• Adjusted EBITDA
• Adjusted EBITDA Margin
• Adjusted Gross Margin
• Adjusted Gross Margin %
• Segment Adjusted Gross Margin
• Segment Adjusted Gross Margin %

We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures, as net income (loss) and net income (loss) per diluted share, respectively, excluding the impact of non-cash amortization charges, impairments, severance and restructuring costs, inventory step-up provision, acquisition and divestiture costs, exit and disposal costs, loss (gain) on sale of business and assets held for sale, settlement charges, net, contingent consideration milestones, changes in fair value of financial instruments, other expense (income) items and tax effects. We use Adjusted Net Income (Loss) for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share. Management uses Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share to assess total Company operating performance on a consistent basis. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with an additional understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends.

We define Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, income tax provision, interest expense, net, excluding the impact of changes in fair value of financial instruments, acquisition and divestiture costs, severance and restructuring costs, loss (gain) on sale of business and assets held for sale, inventory step-up provision, contingent consideration milestones, impairments, settlement charges, net, exit and disposal costs and other expense (income) items. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Total Revenues. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results and GAAP financial measures, provide management and investors with a more complete understanding of our operating results, including underlying trends. In addition, EBITDA is a common alternative measure of operating performance used by many of our competitors. It is used by investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and others to value and compare the financial performance of companies in our industry, although it may be defined differently by different companies. Therefore, we also believe that this non-GAAP financial measure, considered along with corresponding GAAP financial measures, provides management and investors with additional information for comparison of our operating results with the operating results of other companies.

We define Adjusted Gross Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Gross Margin, excluding the impact of intangible asset amortization, restructuring costs, changes in the fair value of financial instruments, settlement charges, net and inventory step-up provision. We define Adjusted Gross Margin %, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Adjusted Gross Margin as a percentage of Products and services sales, net.

We define Segment Adjusted Gross Margin, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as a segment’s Gross Margin excluding the respective impact of intangible asset amortization, restructuring costs, changes in the fair value of financial instruments and inventory step-up provision. We define Segment Adjusted Gross Margin %, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as Segment Adjusted Gross Margin as a percentage of a segment’s revenues.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable with other similarly titled measures of other companies. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depend upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
