ADMA Biologics generates revenue primarily through the manufacturing and marketing of specialty biologics, specifically plasma-derived products for the treatment of immune deficiencies and prevention of certain infectious diseases.

Revenue Sources

  • ASCENIV™ (immune globulin intravenous, human – slra 10% liquid) for the treatment of primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI).
  • BIVIGAM® (immune globulin intravenous, human) for the treatment of PI.
  • NABI-HB® (hepatitis B immune globulin, human) to provide enhanced immunity against the hepatitis B virus.

Revenue Distribution by Channel

  • Established distribution network and channel partners comprehensively cover targeted call-points and sites of care, including inpatients (hospital-based) and outpatients (infusion center, physician office, homecare).

Income Statement Analysis

  • Revenues increased by 65% year-over-year, driven by increased sales of immunoglobulin products, particularly ASCENIV.
  • Gross profit margin improved significantly from 34.4% in FY 2023 to 51.5% in FY 2024 due to a more favorable mix of higher margin IG sales and reduced manufacturing costs.
  • Net income increased by $225.9 million, primarily due to the increase in operating income, lower interest expense, a reduced loss on the extinguishment of debt and the income tax benefit.
  • Basic earnings per share improved from $(0.13) to $0.85, reflecting the company's improved profitability.

Balance Sheet Analysis

  • Cash and cash equivalents increased significantly, reflecting strong operating cash flow generation.
  • Total assets increased due to higher cash balances and deferred tax assets.
  • Total liabilities decreased primarily due to the repayment of senior notes payable.
  • Total stockholders' equity increased substantially, driven by net income and additional paid-in capital.

Management Commentary

ADMA delivered exceptional operating and financial results in 2024, with total revenues and Adjusted EBITDA growing 65% and 309% year-over-year, respectively.

We believe our recently secured long-term high-titer plasma supply agreements mark a transformative milestone, as they significantly expanded our plasma sourcing capacity and are expected to further de-risk both our near-term and long-term growth trajectories.

Ongoing FDA interactions reinforce our confidence in timely potential approval by mid-year 2025

Overall Sentiment: Positive. Management expresses strong confidence in the company's future prospects, driven by revenue growth, margin expansion, and strategic initiatives such as securing plasma supply and enhancing production processes. The transition to KPMG as auditor should instill confidence to stock holders.
