Presentation

[Operator]

Good morning, and welcome to the Amneal Pharmaceuticals First Quarter twenty twenty five Earnings Call. I'd now like to turn the call over to Amneal's Head of Investor Relations, Tony DeMayo.

[Anthony DiMeo, Head - IR at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

[Anthony DiMeo, Head - IR at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

We also discuss non GAAP measures. Information on use of these measures and reconciliations to GAAP are in the earnings release and presentation. On the call today are Sharag and Shintu Patel, cofounders and co CEOs Tassos Conidera, CFO our commercial leaders Andy Boyer for Affordable Medicines Joe Renda for Specialty and Jason Daley, Chief Legal Officer. I will now hand the call over to Sharak.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Thank you, Tony. Good morning, everyone. In Q1, we delivered another quarter of strong performance and continued growth, driven by the successful execution of our strategy. Q1 revenues of $695,000,000 grew 5% and adjusted EBITDA of $170,000,000 grew 12%. Over the years, we have made deliberate decisions and investments across our business and delivered on our commitments.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Over time and through market cycles, we have differentiated Amneal from our peers by delivering sustainable growth, driven by our leadership in quality, innovation, and execution. Today, Amneal is in as strong a position as ever. We are embarking on our next phase of growth with momentum and confidence in our ability to deliver on our goals in 02/2025 and beyond. Big picture, Amneal is a trusted leader in an essential industry, providing millions of Americans with access to affordable and innovative treatments. Each year, we fill over 162,000,000 scripts for American patients.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Amneal has one of the largest US pharmaceutical manufacturing footprints in the industry with a broad portfolio of over 280 products. Over 50 of our medicines are made in The United States from antibiotics, antivirals, to medicines that treat Alzheimer's, cancer, Parkinson's disease. For a meal made in America isn't just a label. It's been a cornerstone of our strategy since our founding in 02/2002 in Paterson, New Jersey. Let me now walk you through the key areas of our business.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

First, in our specialty segment, the launch of Crexon for Parkinson's disease continues to exceed expectations in its first year of commercialization. Market uptake has been strong with market share already surpassing 1% and on track to reach over 3% by end of this year. We have received remarkable feedback from patients and providers as one key opinion leader who is also a patient shared the following. Has made me feel and move tremendously better compared to Rytary. I have concrete examples of how has changed my life.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

It has made a huge difference. In addition, we are pleased with the continued progress and momentum in expanding market access. This year so far, Trexond has been added to several major insurance plans, including the Vectren Administration, UnitedHealthcare, CVS Health, and Cigna Commercial. These doubles the total US coverage from approximately 30% at the February to approximately 60% of US covered lives today. To put that in perspective, Trexon has achieved in six months that Rytary took years to accomplish in market excess coverage.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

We are highly confident in achieving US peak sales of 3 to 300 to 5 hundred million for Trexon. Overall, we are focused on expanding our specialty branded portfolio over time. Next, with the anticipated launch of our DHE auto injector later this year. Second, in GLP ones, we continue to advance our partnership with Metsera in the weight loss and obesity space, which represents a new integrated business model to drive innovation at scale in GLP-1s. Matsura is rapidly advancing its pipeline of ultra long acting injectable and oral candidates.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

As they have shared, Metsera's lead program, MED097i, a monthly ultra long acting injectable, is expected to deliver Phase IIb trial results midyear. Amneal is Medsara's preferred global supplier across The United States, Europe, and other markets. Also, Amneal will commercialize their products in 20 emerging markets, including India. To support this plan, we are leveraging our existing infrastructure while constructing a high volume peptide manufacturing facility and an advanced sterile fill and finish production facility. Over time, we expect GLP-1s will be a long term growth driver for Amneal with three avenues of value creation.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

First and foremost, our collaboration with MedCera. Second, potential CMO offerings for other large companies. And lastly, manufacturing capacity we can provide for generic weight loss therapies globally. Third, in our affordable medicine segment, which includes retail generics, injectables, and biosimilars, Growth continues to be driven by our diversified, complex portfolio and new launches. In particular, our injectables portfolio is expanding.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Last month, we launched Buruzu, which is our fourth five five b two injectable launch over the last year. These ready to use solutions improve hospital efficiency by eliminating medication preparation steps and have unique reimbursement coding for hospitals. Fourth, turning to biosimilars. This represents a next major wave of affordable medicines in The United States. According to an IQVIA report, more than hundred biologics will lose exclusivity over the next decade.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Yet only 10% have biosimilars in development. Biosimilars for the remaining 90% could save approximately hundred $89,000,000,000 over ten years. For patients, biosimilars improve affordability and access to essential therapies. For Amneal, they represent a compelling long term growth opportunity that we are well positioned to lead. Today, our strategic focus has been in licensing our biosimilar portfolio and establishing a commercial platform.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

In 02/2024, our first three biosimilars generated 25,000,000 revenue.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

In addition,

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

we have expanded our pipeline with regulatory applications for five additional biosimilars being filed this year. By 02/1927, we expect to have six biosimilars on the market across eight product presentations. Our strategic goal is to be vertically integrated in biosimilars and leverage our proven ability and expertise to develop, manufacture, and commercialize complex biopharmaceuticals at scale. Finally, growth in our healthcare segment continues to be driven by new launches across three channels, distribution, government and unit dose. We expect healthcare revenue to reach over $900,000,000 by 2027.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

This business adds stability and diversification to Amneal's portfolio. In summary, Amneal has diverse array of growth drivers that enhance our competitive differentiation, drive sustainable value creation, and improve access and care for patients. Our strategic focus and long term investments have been intentional and thoughtful. We could not be more excited about what the future holds as we advance our vision to be America's number one affordable medicines company. I will now turn it over to Chintu.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Thank you, Jirag, and good morning, everyone. Let me begin by expressing my deep appreciation to our Amneal team. Their passion and commitment continue to drive Amneal forward as a purpose driven company focused on innovation, execution, and value creation. This morning, I will provide an update on our strategic priorities across operations, innovation, and our portfolio. First, on operations, our global high quality manufacturing infrastructure remains a key differentiator.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Amneal continues to be recognized for its stellar quality track record and operational excellence. We are investing in digitization, automation, and AI technologies across our network to drive operational efficiency and our trusted quality and customer service reputation. This foundation positions positions us well to launch new products, help address drug shortages in the market, and serve more patients. Amneal has a robust and diverse manufacturing footprint across across The US, India, and Ireland. In The US, our extension manufacturing infrastructure and capabilities are the foundation of our leadership position.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

We are one of the largest domestic pharmaceutical manufacturing footprints in the industry as we produce many of our generics and specialty products, including Hexond in The US. Over the years, we have built deep pharmaceutical manufacturing expertise across a wide range of dosage forms in The US from oral solids to highly complex formulations. We have seven US FDA approved manufacturing facilities across four sites capable of making oral solids, liquids, topicals, transdermal patches, and nasal spray dosage forms with excess capacity to meet market needs. Amneal is proud of its made in America heritage, which is a competitive advantage and a core part of our strategy. Turning to innovation, we are pleased with the progress of Kraxon in the first six months of launch with strong KPIs across the board.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

The product is engineered for rapid onset and extended efficacy, delivering more good on time with fewer doses for Parkinson's patients. At the American Academy of Neurology meeting last month, our team shared new data from our phase three study showing significant improvements in sleep quality for patients on VexorT. In particular, disturbances affect up to eighty percent of PD patients. Further, our open label phase four study is underway to generate additional real world evidence. With robust early adoption and strong feedback from the neurology community and patients, is poised to become the leading leading branded product for Parkinson's disease.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Next in our specialty pipeline is the BHG auto injector for migraine and cluster headache. Our goal date is coming up this month. This innovative presentation of a well known molecule was developed and will be manufactured in house. This first and only BHE auto injector is intended to help patients avoid emergency room visits during these painful headache episodes. We look to launch this product later this year and see the DHE auto injector as a 50,000,000 to 100,000,000 peak sales opportunity.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

In addition, our strategic partnership with MedCera in the GLP-one space is progressing as planned. As part of this collaboration, we are building two new manufacturing facilities, one for peptide drug substance production and another for advanced sterile field finish manufacturing. These facilities will enable high volume production as Amneal serves as MedCera's preferred global supplier and will support large scale GLP one commercialization. This collaboration exemplifies how we are leveraging our strong core competencies in r and d and complex manufacturing to lead in high growth therapeutic areas like GLP ones. On our complex genetics portfolio, each year, we expect to launch 20 to 30 new products.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

We have launched eight new products so far in 2025. Later this year, we have several key complex product launches, including Bradford Ophthalmic Suspension and Respiridone injection. Overall, we have 81 ANDAs pending approval, of which 65% are non oral solids and 47 products in development, of which 96% are non oral solids. We continue to prioritize within our R and D portfolio and allocate investment towards higher growth areas like specialty brands, injectables and biosimilars over time. In injectables, we launched 12 new products in 2024 and expect to launch over 10 new injectables in 2025.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

In particular, we have launched four new five zero five B2 injectables over the last year, which is a new growth vector for our business. In April, we launched Boruzu, our fourth five zero five e two injectable. In addition, we have 10 to 12 more five zero five e two injectables in development. Other complex injectable R and D programs, including microspheres, liposomes, and drug device combinations continue to progress well. Amneal is well positioned to be a leader in the injectable space in the coming years with our robust manufacturing footprint, deep scientific capabilities, and expanding portfolio.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

In biosimilar, we see a significant market potential given the upcoming wave of LOEs for biologics and the clear opportunity for Amneal to establish a leadership position in The States. This year, we are filing our next five biosimilar pipeline candidates with launches targeted for 2026 and 2027. The BLA filings for two danazumab biosimilars were submitted with goal date in quarter four. Next, the supplemental BLA filings for pegfilgrastim, OBI and auto injector is expected in the third quarter, followed by the BLA filing for biosimilar ZOLE set for quarter four. We look to expand our biosimilar portfolio and be vertically integrated over time.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

In summary, we have continued our strong operational momentum and execution in 2025. Our strategic focus on innovation, quality and manufacturing excellence sets us for sustainable growth and leadership across our business. Thank you. And with that, I will hand it over to Vasilis.

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Thank you, Cintu, and good morning, everyone. In the first quarter, we saw continued broad based growth across our three segments, excellent uptake of Craigsound and new product launches that further enhance our growth profile and diversification. As a result, we're incredibly proud of our global teams for delivering growth of 5% in revenue, 12% in adjusted EBITDA and 50% growth in adjusted EPS. I'll first cover our Q1 results in more detail, then touch on tariffs, and finally affirm our 2025 full year guidance. In the first quarter of twenty twenty five, total net revenues of $695,000,000 grew 5% in line with our expectations.

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Q1 affordable medicines revenue of $415,000,000 grew by $23,000,000 or 6% as new products launched in 2024 and 2025 added $41,000,000 Our affordable medicines portfolio includes approximately two seventy products across retail, injectables and biosimilars. As Jirag and Sintu mentioned, AML's R and D success, excellent supply chain and commercial execution are key strengths, driving consistent revenue growth, broadening of our product portfolio and delivering value to our customers, providers and patients. In our Specialty segment, Q1 revenue of $108,000,000 grew 3% driven by Prexant, which added $9,000,000 and Unitroid, which added $4,000,000 in the quarter. We're delighted by the market acceptance of Craigsand and upcoming payer coverage expansion. Consequently, we're confident that Craigsand will meet or exceed its 2025 revenue goal of $50,000,000 Q1 AvKARE revenues of 172,000,000 grew 6%, a strong growth in the government channel was partially offset by softness in the lower margin distribution channel.

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

From a gross margin perspective, we're extremely pleased to report Q1 adjusted gross margins of 43.1%, up 120 basis points year over year. The strong margin expansion was driven by favorable product and channel mix, new product launches and higher efficiencies at the plant level. Q1 adjusted EBITDA of 170,000,000 grew 12% reflecting revenue growth, higher gross margin and operating expense leverage. From an EPS perspective, we're pleased to report Q1 adjusted EPS of $0.21 which represents 50% growth driven by higher adjusted EBITDA and lower interest expense. In summary, we're off to a strong start for the year driven by strong execution across a multitude of growth drivers.

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

In addition, we continue to strengthen our overall financial position with strong cash flow generation, no near term debt maturities and continue to reduce leverage. In Q1, gross leverage was further reduced to four point zero versus 4.1x at year end twenty twenty four and net leverage remained at 3.9x. Let me now turn to tariffs. And even though it's difficult to quantify precise implications, our team is developing numerous mitigating actions across multiple scenarios. First, our financial forecast already include a modest impact of our current tariff provisions.

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Second, we already have a large and growing manufacturing presence in The U. S, which produces two thirds of our affordable medicines and specialty revenues. The remaining one third mostly comes from our India operations and imports from rest of the world are

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

not very

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

meaningful. Third, our teams are taking several mitigating actions to ensure we deliver on our commitments to patients and shareholders. These include increasing our U. S. Based inventory, secure alternative sources of API, renegotiating supply agreements, driving portfolio optimization and other productivity initiatives.

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Finally,

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

from

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

a long term perspective, we believe our multiple growth vectors, extensive U. S. Manufacturing capabilities and leading commercial presence position Amneal well in being a top tier growth company. Finally, we're pleased to affirm our full year 2025 expectations. And as a reminder, we expect total net revenue between $3,000,000,000 and 3,100,000,000.0 which reflects 7% to 11% top line growth adjusted EBITDA between $650,000,000 to $675,000,000 reflecting four to 8% growth and adjusted EPS of $0.65 to $0.70 reflecting 12 to 21% growth.

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

I will now turn the call

[Tasos Konidaris, EVP & CFO at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

back to Chirag.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Thank you, Tasos. Our performance in q one reflects the strength of our diversified business, continued execution of our strategy, and the dedication of our team. We remain confident in our ability to drive sustainable value as we advance in this exciting next chapter of growth. Let's now open the call for question and answers.

[Operator]

Thank you. We will now begin the Q and A session. Our first question today comes from David Amsellem from Piper Sandler. Your line is now open.

[David Amsellem, Sr. Research Analyst at Piper Sandler Companies]

Hey, good morning and thanks. So I have a couple of questions on biosimilars and generic injectables. First on biosimilars, can you just give us a refresher on what you expect the 25 top line contribution to be? And particularly interested in how big you think Alimpsus could be. I think you in the past have cited it as being about $100,000,000 of contribution, but I just wanted to just level set those expectations for biosimilars for this year.

[David Amsellem, Sr. Research Analyst at Piper Sandler Companies]

And then secondly, you talk about vertical integration regarding your biosimilar business. I guess my question here is when do you think that's going to actually come to pass? And how should we be thinking about not just the next couple of years, but sort of the next five years as we think about the cadence of new launches and just your overall thoughts on contribution for biosimilars to the top line? So that's on biosimilars. And then on injectables, I know you've cited shortages, but you've also cited more complex products.

[David Amsellem, Sr. Research Analyst at Piper Sandler Companies]

I guess as you think about the business, is there a lean into one versus the other? And just help us better understand what you think injectable top line contribution is going to be this year. Thank you.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Thank you, David, and good morning. Biosimilarly, we're in line with what we have said, around hundred and $5,060,000,000 in total contribution on top line with Alimsys being a leading product. You're in the ballpark somewhere between 90 to hundred million. That's what we are driving towards. So that's the current existing products.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

And then your question on vertical integration, we are looking at options, and we expect to to execute on options by probably end of this year, maybe beginning of next year, because we see time is at essence now. We'd like to be very, very a big player in biosimilars, having the development capabilities, having manufacturing capacity in The United States and in India or other locations in the world. And I have a this week, as we said, this is there's a void in biosimilar. There's so many products we can work on. And when we do look to vertically integrate, we will, we'll hope that the partner has a big pipeline, and the contribution from a biosimilar business over five years and ten years is going to be very significant.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

It is the whole, as you know, the value of the biosimilars are huge. The total branded value is $2,350,000,000,000 and about a hundred losing exclusivity over the next ten years. So there is, it's all about execution. The market dynamics on a commercial side, we believe, will work it out, over time just like how it worked out in GX, but not exactly like GX because competition here is very less from the supplier standpoint. Right now, we see about somewhere seven to 10 active companies in The United States that work in the pipe work on the pipeline, CDS pipeline.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

So I know it's a long answers, but it's a very, very important, vertical for us biosimilars to grow, and it's in our wheelhouse. This is what we do. We complex development, device combination, biosimilars, a very complex manufacturing, and great commercialization in The United States and work with partners in the international markets. So it's a great international opportunity. On injectable, I'll pass it over to my younger brother.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Hi, Nate. Good morning.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

On injectables, over the last few years, we have expanded our manufacturing footprints and r and d capabilities to work on complex and same times we have the capacity which we can, know, work on certain volume product. We are very passionate about solving the drug shortage because we believe that drug shortage should not exist. And we have many products where does not affect or impact our ability on the complex development. So we are focusing on both areas. Our complex portfolio is moving very, very well.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

This year, we'll be launching, Constar. We have launched, many other five five b two programs. We have other ten, twelve pipeline of five five b two injectable programs along with microspheres are making good progress. Our liposomal is making good progress. We have a deep expertise on drug device combination.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

We have now infrastructure of about 22 injectable lines, with three to four locations. And we are also, looking to some manufacturing in US in coming coming time, also. So we are well positioned on injectables. It's a focused area, and it's we're not leaning one over another. We are prioritizing both space equally.

[David Amsellem, Sr. Research Analyst at Piper Sandler Companies]

Okay. Thank you.

[Operator]

Thank you. The next question is from Les Lewicki from Truist Securities. Your line is now open.

[Les Sulewski, VP - Biotech Equity Research at Truist Securities]

Good morning. Thank you for taking my questions. So first, wanted to focus on AskHARE. How exposed is AskHARE to the federal government cuts, if any? How are you positioning this business in the current environment, I guess?

[Les Sulewski, VP - Biotech Equity Research at Truist Securities]

And then second on, are you seeing any sort of FDA delays, whether it's on approvals or feedbacks on the generics front? And any sort of, I guess, initial potential from a facility site visits delays as well? And then second, just kind of talk to us about the ongoing partnership selection on Krexone ex U. S. I know you've identified EU and South America and Canada, but perhaps you could

[Les Sulewski, VP - Biotech Equity Research at Truist Securities]

just give us a little bit

[Les Sulewski, VP - Biotech Equity Research at Truist Securities]

of time line on other parts and then specifically in with your time line to launch in India and the opportunity there. Thank you.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Thank you, Les, and good morning. So VA this this federal cuts do not apply to the former. VA is actually expanding 18,000,000 lives. So and and and more our veterans are becoming becoming older. So more more prescription drugs, so we see volume growth actually in VA, DOD.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

So we do not see any issue there. Your question on FDA, we haven't seen any any delays from FDA at this point, so no issue there. And then Krexond ex US, we have the the partnership in place for Canada, Latin America, Europe, and now we just signed Southeast Asia. India, we're going to market by ourselves. Europe is the largest, I mean, largest market size will be for us, and partner is doing a phase four additional small phase score for European requirements to get a proper reimbursement.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

And then India, we haven't gauged the exact market size, but it's much needed all over the world. Only IR is available for the last thirty, forty years, and these patients really will benefit from TEXON. And looking at China and Japan, that those talks are going on, right now.

[Chintu Patel, Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

And just to add one thing on FDA, none of our goal dates have been impacted. All our products are progressing well, and it's part of the GDUFA user fee also. So site inspection plus, and these all plans are FDA approved and in a very, very good standing. That also benefits us from any potential delays. But as of today, we have not seen any any delays on our application or the goal dates.

[Les Sulewski, VP - Biotech Equity Research at Truist Securities]

Thank you.

[Operator]

Thank you. And the next question is from Chris Schott from JPMorgan. Your line is now open.

[Chris Schott, Managing Director at JP Morgan]

Great. Thanks so much for the questions. I said maybe to start with a two parter on tariffs. I know you have a different manufacturing footprint versus peers. So if we were to see tariffs applied to pharmaceuticals, do you see an opportunity to further leverage your U.

[Chris Schott, Managing Director at JP Morgan]

S. Manufacturing footprint? And maybe just talk a little bit about what type of capacity you'd have to utilize if in fact we did see tariffs applied? My second question on the tariff front was for some of the products that are potentially exposed to tariffs and thinking about the affordable medicines portfolio, what is the ability to increase price on some of these products to offset some of those pressures? Or is the goal of Emneal more to pivot the manufacturing to either your own capacity or third parties to more avoid tariffs on those?

[Chris Schott, Managing Director at JP Morgan]

And then maybe one follow-up after that.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Thank you, Chris. So if tariffs were to come on generics, pharmaceuticals, leveraging our US manufacturing footprint, we have additional capacity. We have one idle plant for a long time now, which we would restart if economically viable. We still have to do that. Obviously, there is a long term economically viable.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

About eight to 10,000,000,000 more units of, oral solids, of, liquid manufacturing, topical manufacturing, transdermal manufacturing, can produce in The United States. So we would we are already set to go, but it has to be economically viable. And your question on increase in prices, obviously, look, if there are there are tariff related increases, we would work with our big, big customers. You know, they have to participate in that, which is CVS and UnitedHealth and Cigna. These are large companies.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

And, there is some positive indication from the customers that they would, they would partner in if something has to happen because we last thing we want is any kind of discontinuation or shortages. So that's the news so far. Thank you, Chris.

[Chris Schott, Managing Director at JP Morgan]

Great. And maybe just as a follow-up on Corkshot. Looking at scripts, I mean, obviously great trends so far. It seems like we're seeing very little cannibalization from Rottari as we've seen the ramp. I know that hasn't been the focus, but as we get maybe closer to that Rottari LOE, is there an opportunity to maybe accelerate some of the conversion of those patients ahead of generic entry?

[Chris Schott, Managing Director at JP Morgan]

Is the focus more on just the broader market here? Thanks so much.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

Yes, Chris. So our focus, as we have said from the beginning, it's a broader market. It's a huge market, almost 650,000 patients we could potentially be on Trexant, rightly reached up to forty thousand. We are already at a run rate of twenty thousand patient now. And by year end, we'll have twenty five thousand.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

And then next year, we could reach, I would easily double that or more. So 80% of that is coming from, the new patient IR, which was our goal. And Reitery, as I pointed out, the KOL by himself took Ryteri over the years now taking Trexon, seeing a huge impact. So as the patient are many of these MDS are already have started shifting their patient to, Trexon because just a much better drug than Ryteri. So we would see both, but we have we're not we're not doing anything particular.

[Chirag Patel, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer at Amneal Pharmaceuticals]

We don't need to to move, or convert aggressively from Rytary to Krexone at all.

[Chris Schott, Managing Director at JP Morgan]

Great. Thanks so much.
