Thank you, Lisa. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us. Today, I'll start by discussing our third-quarter performance and highlights. You'll then hear from Chris Mutz, ANI's Head of Rare Disease. After Chris provides additional color on the progress of this segment of our business, including the integration of Alimera, Steve will review the quarter and our updated guidance in more detail. Following our remarks, we'll take your questions. It's an exciting time here at ANI as we're continuing to execute well this year against our purpose of serving patients and improving lives. In addition, our team delivered record performance during the quarter for our lead rare disease asset, Cortrophin Gel, and our generics business. We also put a new, more efficient and effective capital structure in place and completed the acquisition of Alimera on September 16. As you've heard me outline previously, Alimera is highly synergistic to our Rare Disease business, and we believe our proven commercial execution capabilities can further unlock the potential for ILUVIEN and YUTIQ to grow as durable assets, as well as accelerate the growth of Cortrophin Gel in ophthalmology. Integration remains one of our key priority areas, and I'm pleased with our progress to date. In particular, we have a 45-person combined ophthalmology sales force who have been cross-trained and promoting all three products since mid-October. In addition, we have successfully retained talented Alimera employees and taken actions to ensure we are on track to capture over $10 million in synergies in 2025. The Alimera acquisition is transformative for our Rare Disease business. We expect the transaction to create substantial shareholder value driving $35 million to $38 million in adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA in 2025, inclusive of the approximately $10 million of identified cost synergies and high single-digit to low double-digit accretion in 2025 adjusted non-GAAP EPS. In addition, we expect our dedicated ophthalmology team to drive additional Cortrophin revenues in 2025. Turning to our third-quarter financial performance, the company posted another strong quarter with total revenues of $148.3 million, an increase of 13% over the third quarter of 2023, driven by accelerating demand for Cortrophin Gel and continued strong growth for generics. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA was $35.1 million, and adjusted non-GAAP EPS was $1.34. Cortrophin Gel generated $52.6 million in revenues during the quarter, up 77% over the third quarter of 2023. The third quarter represented continued momentum with the highest number of both quarterly new patient starts and unique prescribers since launch in January 2022. We saw increased demand across all targeted specialties; neurology, rheumatology, nephrology, pulmonology, and ophthalmology. And are pleased to report that the prescribing momentum has continued in the fourth quarter with the number of monthly new cases initiated reaching a record high in October. Cortrophin remains on a strong multi-year growth trajectory as the overall ACTH category has returned to growth and is expected to deliver more than 20% year-over-year growth in 2024. In addition, the number of patients on ACTH therapy today is still substantially lower than a few years ago. Our Generics Business delivered another strong quarter, with revenues of $78.2 million, an increase of 11% over the third quarter of 2023 and 5.4% over the second quarter of 2024. The solid performance reflected strength in our base business, coupled with contribution from new product launches. During the quarter, we launched five new generics, including some into limited competition markets. Our R&D team continues to build momentum with one additional product launched already in Q4 and submission of several new ANDAs in the fourth quarter. Based on our strong third-quarter results, the continued momentum across the business, and the addition of ILUVIEN and YUTIQ, we're pleased to raise our full-year 2024 guidance, which Steve will discuss later in the call. I'll now turn the call over to Chris Mutz, our Head of Rare Disease, to discuss Cortrophin and our new ophthalmology franchise in more detail. Chris?

Thank you, Nikhil, and good morning, everyone. I'm looking forward to telling you a bit more about the exciting things happening in our Rare Disease business. First, Cortrophin. We are pleased with the strong demand trends for Cortrophin Gel during the third quarter, which included continued momentum in adding new prescribers and robust growth of existing prescribers. Importantly, we saw demand growth across all targeted specialties of neurology, rheumatology, nephrology, pulmonology, and ophthalmology. Our ophthalmology sales team, in particular, drove significant growth in prescriptions and new patient starts in the third quarter, further reinforcing our confidence in the potential of the expanded team, which is now bolstered by the addition of the former Alimera reps and new reps we hired to complete the 45-person integrated ophthalmology sales force. As Nikhil mentioned, we believe Cortrophin Gel remains on a strong multi-year growth trajectory and the company has been taking important steps to further strengthen the Cortrophin Gel franchise. Over the past 18 months, we've launched dedicated sales teams in pulmonology and ophthalmology, and with the Alimera acquisition, we now have an expanded sales team in ophthalmology. Moving now to our efforts toward improving patient and physician experience and convenience. We are pleased to announce that we've completed the development of a pre-filled syringe offering for Cortrophin Gel and submitted a supplemental NDA for FDA approval in late October. We believe the pre-filled syringe will provide further benefits to patients and physicians by reducing the steps needed for self-administration and are excited about the potential for this new offering that we plan to launch in the first half of 2025. We are also exploring other ideas to enhance the convenience for patients starting on Cortrophin Gel and the healthcare providers who treat them. And as a reminder, in the fourth quarter of 2023, we introduced the 1-milliliter version of Cortrophin Gel to meet the needs of physicians who desired a smaller configuration of ACTH for certain patients, in particular, those with acute gouty arthritis flares for which Cortrophin Gel is the only approved ACTH therapy. Physician demand for the 1-mL vial has steadily ramped up, including in the third quarter. We're also continuing to invest in scientific research that will provide additional support for the use of Cortrophin Gel. At the end of October, we presented two abstracts at the American Society of Nephrology Annual Meeting, and earlier in Q3, research with Cortrophin Gel was published in Frontiers in Pharmacology, authored by Rujun Gong from the University of Toledo with collaborators. Overall, ANI believes in and remains committed to investing behind Cortrophin and delivering strong multi-year growth through Purified Cortrophin Gel. Turning now to the Alimera products, we are as excited as ever about the potential for our combined rare disease team to accelerate growth of ILUVIEN, YUTIQ, and Cortrophin Gel with retina and uveitis specialists along with additional targeted ophthalmology subspecialties. As a reminder, ILUVIEN is used to treat Diabetic Macular Edema or DME, the leading cause of vision loss in diabetic patients. And YUTIQ is used to treat chronic non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment, or NIU-PS. Both products are differentiated as long-term treatment options compared to other available products on the market. ANI has continued to make progress on the clinical studies, NEW DAY and Synchronicity, which are ongoing for ILUVIEN and YUTIQ. NEW DAY has the potential to expand the utilization of ILUVIEN for patients with early DME by investigating combination therapy consisting of ILUVIEN and supplemental anti-VEGFs treatment to improve patient outcomes. We expect top-line data in the second quarter of 2025. The study is a multi-center, single-masked, randomized and controlled trial designed to demonstrate the efficacy of ILUVIEN as baseline therapy in patients by comparing ILUVIEN plus supplemental anti-VEGF therapy to the current standard of care, anti-VEGF therapy alone. The NEW DAY study was initiated in 2020 and is fully enrolled with 306 treatment-naive or almost naive DME patients in approximately 42 sites around the US. The planned treatment period in the study is 18 months, with the last patient's last visit in this study projected for next month. Having just attended the American Academy of Ophthalmology Meeting in Chicago in mid-October, it's very clear that this data is highly anticipated by the retina specialist community. Synchronicity is a study designed to provide retina and uveitis specialists with a broader sense of the utility of YUTIQ in patients with chronic NIU-PS. The study is a multicenter open-label study evaluating YUTIQ in chronic inflammation. The study has enrolled 110 patients in approximately 25 sites around the U.S., with the last patient last visit for this study projected for November 2025. Overall, the integration has been relatively seamless and we're not only excited about the product, but also impressed by the caliber of talent that we welcomed into ANI. Integration and cross-training of the legacy ANI and Alimera ophthalmology sales reps is complete, and the combined team of 45 began promoting Cortrophin Gel, ILUVIEN, and YUTIQ to physicians in mid-October. We expect the enhanced team to drive greater awareness of all three products and the identification of more patients that can benefit from treatment. In 2025, we expect ANI's Rare Disease business will be both the company's largest business unit and the largest driver of growth. And we look forward to keeping you updated on our progress. With that, I'll turn the call over to Steve for the financial update. Steve?

Thanks, Chris, and good morning to everyone on the call. I'll review our third-quarter results and then discuss our updated 2024 guidance. ANI generated third-quarter revenues of $148.3 million, up 13% over the prior year period. Revenues from Cortrophin Gel reported in our Rare Disease segment were $52.6 million, up 77% from the prior year period, driven primarily by increased volume on a record number of new patient starts. Based upon the continued strong execution of the rare disease team in driving growth, we are raising our full-year Cortrophin Gel revenue guidance to $196 million to $200 million. The acquisition of Alimera closed on September 16th and therefore, our third-quarter financial statements reflect approximately two weeks of revenue and expense activity. We are reporting combined revenues from these products under the heading, ILUVIEN and YUTIQ, which contributed $3.9 million of revenues to our rare disease segment during the two-week period. Revenues for our Generics, established brands, and other segment were $91.9 million, a decrease of 10% over the prior year period. Generic revenues for the quarter were $78.2 million, an increase of 11% over the prior year period, driven by increased volumes on contributions from new product launches in 2024 and the full-year impact of products launched in 2023. Net revenues for established brands and other were $13.7 million in the quarter, a decrease of 57% over the prior year, which was in line with our expectations. Starting today, when I speak to our operating expenses for the purpose of this earnings call, I will be referring to our non-GAAP expenses, which are detailed on Table 3 in our press release. Generally, our non-GAAP operating expense excludes depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and certain costs related to litigation and M&A activity. Please refer to Table 3 for a reconciliation to our GAAP expenditures. Non-GAAP cost of sales, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased 25% to $59.5 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to net growth in sales volumes of pharmaceutical products and significant growth of royalty-bearing products. Non-GAAP gross margin was 60%, a decrease of approximately 3.9 points from the prior year period primarily driven by unfavorable product mix due to the reduction in established brand revenues. Non-GAAP research and development expenses decreased 20% to $8.7 million in the third quarter of 2024, principally due to the timing of spend. We continue to expect second half 2024 R&D expenditures to be meaningfully higher than the first half of the year due to the timing of activities and the inherent phasing of R&D on a quarter-by-quarter basis. In addition, fourth-quarter R&D spend will include expenditures for ILUVIEN and YUTIQ, driven primarily by the NEW DAY and Synchronicity studies. Expenditures related to these studies are expected to continue throughout 2025. Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses increased 23% to $45 million in the third quarter of 2024 due to increased employment-related costs, continued investment in rare disease sales and marketing activities, and an overall increase in activities required to support the growth of our business. We expect these expenses to be meaningfully higher in the fourth quarter, reflecting a full quarter of our integrated ophthalmology sales force promoting Cortrophin, ILUVIEN, and YUTIQ. We expect continued investment in our business and corresponding expenses to support the expanded sales force to continue in 2025. Adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.34 for the quarter compared to $1.27 per share in the prior year period. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA for the third quarter was $35.1 million compared to $36.5 million in the prior year period. We ended the quarter with $145 million in unrestricted cash and have $641.3 million in principal value of outstanding debt inclusive of our senior convertible notes and term loan. At the end of the third quarter, our gross leverage was approximately 3.8 times and our net leverage was approximately 3 times our trailing 12-month adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA of approximately $167.7 million, which is pro forma for the Alimera acquisition, inclusive of run-rate synergies. Turning to our updated 2024 outlook. We're pleased to have closed the acquisition of Alimera and are raising our full-year 2024 guidance to reflect continued strength in Purified Cortrophin Gel and the contribution from ILUVIEN and YUTIQ starting September 16. Our updated guidance is as follows: Full year 2024 net revenues of $594 million to $602 million, up from our prior guidance of $540 million to $560 million, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 22% to 24%. Cortrophin net revenues of $196 million to $200 million, up from our prior guidance of $185 million to $195 million, representing growth of 75% to 78%. Combined ILUVIEN and YUTIQ net revenues of $30 million to $32 million, which reflects revenues during the post-close period of September 16th through December 31st. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA of $149 million to $153 million, up from our prior guidance of $140 million to $150 million, representing growth of approximately 11% to 14%, and adjusted non-GAAP earnings per share between $4.90 and $5.05, up from our prior guidance of $4.38 and $4.82. We now expect total company non-GAAP gross margin to be at the high end of our previously communicated range of between 61% and 62%. With the inclusion of SG&A and R&D associated with ILUVIEN and YUTIQ, we anticipate full-year total adjusted non-GAAP operating expenses for 2024 of between $219 million and $223 million. Consistent with previous quarters, we will continue to tax effect non-GAAP adjustments for the computation of adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share using our estimated statutory rate of 26% unless the item being adjusted is non-tax deductible in whole or part. The company now anticipates approximately 19.7 million and 19.9 million shares outstanding for the purpose of calculating adjusted non-GAAP diluted EPS for the full year 2024 and fourth quarter 2024, respectively. The company also expects its annual U.S. GAAP effective tax rate to be in the mid-single digits as compared to our previous expectation between 22% and 25%, driven by the non-deductible nature of certain expenses incurred in conjunction with the acquisition of Alimera applied against an annual forecasted GAAP pre-tax loss.

Thank you, Steve. The continued strong performance of our business in the third quarter underscores the strength of our strategy and highlights our solid execution. And we're excited about the potential of the new expanded Rare Disease business. We now have multiple growing and durable commercial rare disease assets and an augmented sales team covering the specialties of ophthalmology, neurology, nephrology, rheumatology, and pulmonology. We look forward to seeing many of you in person later this month at Guggenheim's Inaugural Healthcare Innovation Conference in Boston and the Jefferies London Healthcare Conference. Thank you all for joining us today. Operator, please open the line for questions.

The floor is now open for your questions. Our first question will come from David Amsellem with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.

Thanks. So, I have a couple of questions. First, can you talk about the payer landscape for Cortrophin Gel and how that has evolved, if it has evolved at all? And how that looks compared to Acthar Gel? So that's number one. Number two is, you've talked about the ACTH market returning to growth. But I'm wondering out loud how much of your business is coming from practitioners who are moving away from Acthar Gel versus practitioners who are just new to the category. So can you help us understand the mix there for your product? And then lastly, on the generics business, you've had a steady cadence of new launches. I guess my question here is, what does that mean for '25? How are you thinking about the pace of new launches and the extent to which you can continue to grow your generics business moving forward? Thank you.

Good morning, David, and thank you for your questions. I'll try to take them one by one. So the first question on the payer landscape for Cortrophin and the ACTH category. Look, we try to find a balance between sharing information that is relevant for investors and not revealing competitively sensitive information. So we maintain strong relationships with our partners in the market access space and believe that there is recognition of the value that Cortrophin brings to this class. And as you think about the payer landscape, I think the most important impactful market access change next year will be the increased affordability for seniors through the Medicare out-of-pocket cap along with the smoothing mechanisms for that out-of-pocket. And our patient support team is prepared to educate patients and physicians about these new options, which we believe should improve patient access. When your second question regarding our growth and where does it come from existing prescribers or new prescribers? I think the way I would look at it is when you look at total growth of ANI, we've been in the market for three years now. And have achieved the growth that we have, right, most recently growing from $112 million in 2023 to a guidance of $196 million to $200 million in 2024. That growth has come from both overall market growth as well as share growth. And so when you sort of bring that down to the prescriber level, we're seeing both. We're seeing growth with share with prescribers that used to use the competitive product, as well as new prescribers that have been unique to Cortrophin Gel. And the other thing to just highlight is, there are indications that ANI has that the competitor does not have, including acute gouty arthritis flares. So as you think about the overall ACTH market, which, if you take our guidance and the competitor's guidance, implies more than 20% growth year-on-year. And what the potential is and why we believe Cortrophin has a strong multi-year growth trajectory, there's also beyond just the existing or the number of patients that were there on therapy a few years ago, but also the additional indications that we have that the competitor does not have. So that's on the second question on the drivers of our growth in Cortrophin. And then on your third question on the cadence of new launches for generics and what does that imply for the trajectory for our generics business. Our strong R&D team, along with operational excellence and our US-based manufacturing footprint with a strong FDA compliance track record will continue to deliver a cadence of new launches, and we believe that the combination of these different factors will enable the ANI generics business to grow in the high-single-digits to low double-digit range going forward as we have delivered over the past few years. Thank you, David.

Thank you.

Thank you. Our next question will come from Gary Nachman with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Thanks. Good morning. So for ILUVIEN and YUTIQ, the guidance of $30 million to $32 million is from the close of Alimera on September 16. So if I back out $4 million in the third quarter, it's $26 million to $28 million for the fourth quarter. Is that a reasonable quarterly run rate to think about going into next year? And then just talk about with the integration in place, how you plan to accelerate those products and if we could see growth next year. And also how much you think the NEW DAY data could help potentially if it's positive, I guess, in terms of combination use.

Great. Good morning, Gary, and thank you for your questions. Yeah. So your first question on ILUVIEN and YUTIQ and the Q4 implied guidance. Look, since the deal closing, the commercial organization has been in a period of transition. We've hired and now have in place 45 ophthalmology dedicated sales reps across the country. Some representatives have seen a realignment of their territories. In addition, we've invested the time to cross-train this team across all three products: ILUVIEN, YUTIQ, and Cortrophin. And post-training, the combined sales team has been promoting all three products since mid-October. So the Q4 guidance reflects this period of transition. We are confident that the underlying demand for ILUVIEN and YUTIQ are aligned with our expectations and expect to achieve our growth goals for these assets. We would expect growth over this run rate in 2025 and we remain confident that the Alimera acquisition will add an incremental $35 million to $38 million in incremental EBITDA in 2025 and anticipate it to drive high single-digit to low double-digit accretion in adjusted non-GAAP EPS. And then on the NEW DAY study, I'll turn that over to Chris to answer your question regarding the impact of the NEW DAY study. I will just say that from our perspective, the double-digit growth that we've projected and the growth expectations that we have for ILUVIEN and YUTIQ have not hinged, and neither did our deal model hinge on a positive readout of the NEW DAY study. Having said that, we look forward to updating you on the top-line results towards the end of Q1 and beginning of Q2 regarding the implications of the commercial growth trajectory for ILUVIEN. But Chris, would you like to add anything?

Yeah. So as mentioned previously, the NEW DAY clinical trial is designed to generate prospective data evaluating ILUVIEN as baseline therapy in the treatment of DME and really compare it to the current standard of care with anti-VEGF injections. We think this study has a significant opportunity for people to reconsider how they're taking care of DME patients. Certainly, anti-VEGF therapy has been the standard of care in early DME, and patients generally receive multiple anti-VEGF treatments before physicians consider ILUVIEN for those patients. And I think from the feedback we've been getting from the retina community, this is going to be the data that has been needed to reconsider the approach that has been taken in taking care of these patients and the potential for combination therapy of ILUVIEN plus an anti-VEGF could have a role based on this data.

Okay.

Thank you, Gary.

And then just on Cortrophin, I know it's pretty early days, but are you seeing a real benefit yet within ophthalmology from the combined sales team with Alimera? What sort of impact do you expect in the coming year, specifically in ophthalmology? And then just with the pre-filled syringe available, I think you said in the first half of next year, how much of a benefit do you think that'll be from a convenience standpoint to help Cortrophin overall? Thanks.

Thank you for the questions, Gary. Regarding the pre-filled syringe, we are introducing this new offering to enhance patient convenience compared to using the vial. This innovation aims to simplify administration and we believe it will benefit patients by making their experience easier. As for the impact of Cortrophin in ophthalmology, it's still in the early stages. The combined ophthalmology sales team has been active since mid-October, promoting all three products. We are seeing positive early indications and are optimistic about growth in Cortrophin within ophthalmology through this unified sales force. However, it's only been a few weeks, and we look forward to providing further updates as we approach 2025 and discuss our progress in this sector. Thank you, Gary.

Okay. Great. Thank you.

Thank you. Our next question will come from Vamil Divan with Guggenheim Securities. Please go ahead.

Great. Thanks for taking my questions. So two if I could. So one, a little bit of a different angle on the Cortrophin questions that were asked before. You've continued to sort of beat and raise on this product through the course of this year. Can you maybe just talk about what parts are doing better? Is it more from certain segments? Is it volume? Is it price or what's been driving the upside over the course of 2024, just as we again sort of think about how to model it out for next year? And then the second question, I want to make sure I caught something you said in your prepared remarks correctly. And there's something around rare disease being the biggest segment or biggest unit in 2025? If you can just clarify that that's what you said. And then when you're comparing that, are you comparing that to just generics on its own, or are you comparing it to generics, established brands, and other altogether as a segment? Thank you.

Yeah. Good morning, Vamil, and thank you for your question. Regarding growth in Cortrophin, I think first you asked whether it's volume versus price. Almost all of the growth comes from growth in volumes. And where does that growth in volumes come from? We see growth across therapeutic areas, both the ones we focused on at launch; neurology, nephrology, and rheumatology, as well as the newer areas of ophthalmology, gout, and pulmonology. We also see robust prescribing demand across both existing prescribers and new prescribers, as I had answered in the question for David upfront. So that's where we're seeing growth sort of pretty much across the board. And then the second your clarification on rare disease, we're seeing rare disease as the largest driver of growth for ANI as a company going forward. So that clarifies that part of the question. Thank you, Vamil.

Okay. All right. Thank you.

Our next question comes from Les Sulewski with Truist Securities. Please go ahead.

Hey, this is Jeevan on for Les. Thanks for taking our questions. So as you look back on the recent Alimera acquisition and potentially consider future M&A, I'm just curious what learnings you take away from the transaction, if any, to prevent similar situations in regards to timely closure in the future. Thank you.

Yeah. Good morning, Jeevan, and thank you for your question. Yeah, I think that's just a great question regarding learnings. I think that as we look to pursue other M&A activities, I think we kind of remain focused on what is strategically aligned and important for ANI. So the Alimera acquisition is a highly synergistic acquisition. It helps continue to expand the scope and scale of our rare disease business, which is right in line with what we had been saying from day one, actually, for almost over a year. And that's something that we have been pursuing. So sort of sticking to our strategy, that's one lesson that we want to continue gathering going forward. And then the second is, as you do an acquisition, there are bumps along the way to make sure that we can continue to stay and work through the challenges. And those challenges may vary from acquisition to acquisition. To ensure that we understand the challenge, that we have the capability, experience, and expertise to address the challenge and to move forward from there. We believe that with the Alimera acquisition, there was a challenge related to the supply of YUTIQ that has come up and we are well-positioned to address that challenge by what we have been working closely with EyePoint since the deal signing to address the issues on the warning letter, and that the work with and the collaboration and engagement with EyePoint has become even closer since we closed the deal. We remain confident that there will be no impact on continuity of YUTIQ supply to patients in need. It is standard practice for ANI to work towards creating redundancies in supply chain for high-value products. Accordingly, we are taking steps to increase supply security for both ILUVIEN and YUTIQ. Going back to your question, Jeevan, there will be bumps along the way as we do acquisitions and making sure that the experience and expertise that we have, we bring that to bear. In this case, it was related to supply. It may be something else in a future acquisition. We have significant capability and expertise in this area, given the three plants we run in the U.S. with strong FDA compliance track records and our experience in addressing points like these jointly with our suppliers. So those are the lessons that I would stick into our strategy and making sure that when bumps come along the way we understand the bumps and address them. Thank you, Jeevan.

Great. Thank you.

At this time, I show no further questions in the queue. I will turn the call back to Nikhil Lalwani for closing remarks.

Thank you, everybody, for joining our call, and thank you for your interest in ANI. We look forward to continue updating you on our progress. We look forward to seeing you at the conferences that we have coming up and engaging with you as we move forward. Thank you.

Thank you. This does conclude the ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc third quarter 2024 earnings results call. You may disconnect your line at this time and have a wonderful day.
