About this update from Assertio Holdings, Inc.

Delivers FY2025 Net Product Sales and Adjusted EBITDA Above Guidance Expects Net Product Sales between $110M-$125M and Adjusted EBITDA between $28M-$40M in FY2026 LAKE FOREST, Ill, March 16, 2026 --( BUSINESS WIRE )--Assertio Holdings, Inc. ("Assertio" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: ASRT), a pharmaceutical company with comprehensive commercial capabilities offering differentiated products designed to address patients’ needs, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025. Mark Reisenauer, Chief Executive Officer, stated: "Our core asset, Rolvedon, continues to represent a meaningful revenue opportunity, as reflected in both our 2025 results and 2026 outlook, and our strong commercial infrastructure and market access capabilities provide a platform to expand and build an oncology portfolio in a disciplined way. Since taking over as CEO, I’ve taken a close look at our business to understand where we have a real advantage and where we need to stay disciplined. That has reinforced our focus on finding products that leverage our existing capabilities rather than pursuing on-market specialty product acquisitions, which we do not view as a sustainable path for long-term growth. Our priorities are clear: leverage our core strengths, allocate capital thoughtfully, and build a differentiated oncology franchise that drives durable shareholder value."

Assertio’s ability to successfully develop and execute its sales, marketing and promotional strategies using its sales force and omni-channel promotion model capabilities; the impact on sales and profits from the entry and sales of generics of Assertio’s products and/or other products competitive with any of Assertio’s products, including, but not limited to, biosimilars and indomethacin suppositories compounded by hospitals and other institutions and a 503B compounder which Assertio believes is violating certain provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act; the timing and impact of additional generic approvals and uncertainty around the recent approvals and launches of generic Indocin products, which are not patent protected and now face generic competition; Assertio’s ability to execute the planned simplification of its corporate structure, which includes the recent divestiture of Assertio Therapeutics and ongoing efforts to consolidate operations and align products under a single entity – while ensuring uninterrupted product supply for patients, in a manner that achieves on a timely basis the anticipated operating efficiencies and complies with applicable legal and regulatory requirements; Assertio’s ability to successfully identify and execute business development and other strategic transactions; Assertio’s ability to achieve the expected financial performance from product candidates and/or products we acquire as well as delays, challenges and expenses, and unexpected liabilities and costs associated with obtaining regulatory approval and launching or integrating, as applicable, and operating newly-acquired product candidates and/or products, including its expectations around its ability to grow the sales and profitability of ROLVEDON;

the outcome of, and Assertio’s intentions with respect to, any pending and potential future disputes, litigation or government investigations, as well as the costs and expenses associated therewith; the timing, cost and results of Assertio’s clinical studies and other research and development efforts, including the extent to which data from the Rolvedon same-day dosing trial, which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2024 and published in the January 2026 issue of the peer- reviewed journal, The Oncologist, may be subsequently included in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines to support Assertio’s ongoing commercialization efforts; Assertio’s compliance or non-compliance with, or being subject to, legal and regulatory requirements related to the development or promotion of pharmaceutical products in the U.S., the extent to which the current U.S. federal administration may impose or seek to impose leadership, rule and/or policy changes impacting Assertio’s business, including CMS’s recently proposed new drug payment models to lower drug prices for Medicare beneficiaries under which CMS would explore potential adjustments to Medicare drug inflation rebate calculations by comparison to international drug pricing information, as well as legal challenges and uncertainty around the funding, functioning, regulatory and policy priorities of U.S. federal regulatory agencies; Assertio’s ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for its products and operate its business without infringing the intellectual property rights of others; variations in revenues obtained from commercialization agreements and the accounting treatment with respect thereto; Assertio’s common stock maintaining compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s minimum closing bid requirement of at least $1.00 per share; and the potential impacts of changes to U.S. and international trade policies, especially in light of the tariffs recently announced or imposed by the new U.S. federal administration, including announced plans to impose up to 100% tariffs on imported branded or patented pharmaceuticals subject to certain exceptions, and tariffs and other retaliatory actions, including legal challenges, taken by other countries, which may be followed by further changes to existing trade agreements and the imposition of further tariffs.

Assertio does not assume, and hereby disclaims, any obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the Company’s financial results presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") basis, the Company has included information about non-GAAP measures of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings, and adjusted earnings per share as useful operating metrics. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliation, provides supplementary information to analysts, investors, lenders, and the Company’s management in assessing the Company’s performance and results from period to period. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the Company’s performance, and in part, in the determination of bonuses for executive officers and employees. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, net income or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Specified Items Non-GAAP measures presented within this release exclude specified items. The Company considers specified items to be significant income/expense items not indicative of current operations. Specified items may include adjustments to interest expense and interest income, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation expense, amortization expense, sales reserves adjustments for products the Company is no longer selling, stock-based compensation expense, fair value adjustments to contingent consideration or derivative liability, expenses or gains recognized for legal settlements, net of any insurance proceeds, losses or other costs incurred upon the divestiture of subsidiaries or cessation of product lines, restructuring charges, amortization of fair value inventory step-up as a result of purchase accounting, transaction-related costs, gains, losses or impairments from adjustments to long-lived assets and assets not part of current operations, changes in valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, and gains or losses resulting from debt refinancing or extinguishment. Revisions to Specified Items Beginning with the first quarter of 2025, adjusted EBITDA excludes legal settlement costs incurred during the period, as these charges relate to non-recurring and non-operational matters. Management believes that excluding such items provides investors with a clearer understanding of the Company’s underlying operating performance by removing the impact of items that are not indicative of continuing operations. Prior period amounts of Adjusted EBITDA have been recast to conform to this presentation.
