ITEM 2.02 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

On November 10, 2021, Repro Med Systems, Inc. dba KORU Medical Systems (“KORU Medical”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021. A related conference call will be held on November 10, 2021 at 4:30 pm Eastern Time.

KORU Medical is making reference to non-GAAP financial measures in both the press release and the conference call. Our management believes that investors’ understanding of KORU Medical’s performance is enhanced by disclosing the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS and Adjusted Net Sales (each as defined below) as a reasonable basis for comparison of our ongoing results of operations. KORU Medical strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and cautions investors that the non-GAAP measures used by KORU Medical may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered replacements for, and should be read together with, the most comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the attached Exhibit 99.1 press release.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings (net (loss)/income) before interest expense/(income), net, income tax (benefit)/expense, depreciation and amortization, reorganization charges, discontinued product expense, litigation expenses, manufacturing initiative expenses and stock-based compensation expense. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is used by investors and other users of our financial statements as a supplemental financial measure that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, we believe provides additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business. We also believe the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare our cash flow generating capacity from quarter to quarter and year to year. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations. Because management uses Adjusted EBITDA for such purposes, KORU Medical uses Adjusted EBITDA as a significant criterion for determining the amount of annual cash incentive compensation paid to our executive officers and employees. We have historically found that Adjusted EBITDA is superior to other metrics for our company-wide cash incentive program, as it is more easily explained and understood by our typical employee.

We present diluted earnings per share after eliminating items that we believe are not part of our ordinary operations and affect the comparability of the periods presented (“Adjusted EPS”). Adjusted EPS includes adjustments for reorganization charges, discontinued product expense, litigation expenses, manufacturing initiative expenses, stock-based compensation expense, and tax (expense). We believe adjustments for these items allow investors to better understand our underlying operating results and facilitate comparisons between the periods shown. Management uses Adjusted EPS as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations.

We present net sales after adjusting for net sales that we believe would have been made during periods other than those in which they were made, due to the pandemic and an early order (“Adjusted Net Sales”). We believe adjustments for these items allow investors to better understand our underlying net sales results and facilitate comparisons between the periods shown. Management uses Adjusted Net Sales as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations.

The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

EXHIBIT 99.1

KORU MEDICAL SYSTEMS ANNOUNCES 2021 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

CHESTER, NY– November 10, 2021 – Repro Med Systems, Inc. dba KORU Medical Systems (NASDAQ: KRMD) (“KORU Medical”or the “Company”), a leading medical technology company focused on the development, manufacturing, and commercialization of innovative and easy-to-use specialty infusion solutions that improve quality of life for patients, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Recent Highlights:

Achieved net revenue of $6.0 million, a 9% increase versus Q2 2021, marking the third consecutive quarter of positive sequential growth
Received FDA 510(k) clearance for CSL Hizentra® 20 ml prefilled syringe with the Freedom Edge® Syringe Infusion System
Appointed three leadership team hires and announced an external innovation collaboration
Scheduled strategic plan update presentation on December 2, 2021

“Our strong third quarter top-line results reflect continued momentum in all areas of our business – core US and international, as well as our novel therapies pipeline,” said Linda Tharby, KORU Medical’s CEO. “I’m proud of the team’s progress this quarter as we strengthen our foundation, continue to build the KORU Medical team, and increase our investment in innovation. We remain focused on continued execution of our strategy, which drives incremental growth and market expansion building on our leadership position in large volume subcutaneous home infusion and extending that position into new drug therapies.”

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Net revenue was $6.0 million, (0.7)% lower compared with $6.1 million in the prior-year period. Adjusting for net inventory stocking of $0.6 million last year, adjusted net revenue grew 9%, with growth in all areas of our business; domestic core driven by pumps, international driven by consumables and increased novel therapies revenues. Sequential quarterly net revenue growth was 9%, with domestic core growth of 10% driven by pumps and needle sets and growth in novel therapies revenue.

Gross margin was 57.9% for the third quarter of 2021, a decline from prior year of 64.8%. The majority of the decline was driven by delays in the transition to our secondary manufacturing source. We also recorded a reserve for in-process material scrap. This was partially offset by favorability in product mix. We are confident in our path to accelerate margin improvement in 2022.


Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2021 were $4.8 million, compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2020. The increase in operating expenses is due to increased spend in support of strategic initiatives including commercialization, regulatory filings, and research and development.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2021 was $1.1 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, compared with net income of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share for the same period in 2020.

*Early Order/Inventory Stocking.*We have excluded the effect of an early order and covid related inventory stocking in calculating our non-GAAP measure.  We had an early order from our largest distributor in the three months ended September 30, 2020, which would have otherwise been placed in the three months ended December 31, 2020, as well as higher purchases in the six months ended June 30, 2020, that we believe would have normally been made in the second half of 2020, had it not been for the pandemic.

*Manufacturing Initiative Expenses.*We have excluded the effect of expenses related to creating manufacturing efficiencies, in calculating our non-GAAP measures.  We incurred expenses in connection with these initiatives which we would not have otherwise incurred in periods presented as part of our continuing operations.  We expect to incur related expenses for the next six to nine months.

*Stock-based Compensation Expense.*We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense in calculating our non-GAAP measures.  We record non-cash compensation expense related to grants of options for executives, employees and consultants, and grants of common stock to our board of directors and our CEO.  Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of the grants, the non-cash compensation expense may vary significantly but will recur in future periods. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 included stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million related to the departure and replacement of our chief executive officer. This expense is the only amount included in Stock-based Compensation Expense in calculating Adjusted Diluted EPS.
