View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250327714911/en/ “Our stellar fourth-quarter performance, including an 84% year-over-year increase in revenues to a record $66.8 million , marked the end of a monumental year for Harrow, with 2024 revenues rising 53% over 2023 to $199.6 million ,” said Mark L. Baum , Chief Executive Officer of Harrow. “This strong finish, driven by over 40% quarter-over-quarter growth in both IHEEZO unit demand and VEVYE prescriptions, showcases market uptake for our expanding portfolio and the overall success of the Harrow team. We expect our momentum to continue in 2025, particularly in the second half, as the recently announced VEVYE Access for All program gains traction – accelerating market share capture, expanding commercially covered prescriptions, and bolstering prescriber confidence by ensuring their patients can affordably start treatment with VEVYE, regardless of insurance status. Meanwhile, in addition to our success in stabilizing the supply chain for TRIESENCE, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services recently approved our transitional pass-through application, significantly increasing its addressable market. This terrific news should add fuel to our commercial efforts concurrent with our development of a next-generation version of this high-value and high-trust product. Because we remain at the initial stages of market penetration for our core products, we expect revenue growth in these cornerstone products for years to come.” Baum added, “We continue to review new ways to better serve our customers and leverage our commercial infrastructure by adding attractive low-risk, high-return products. This includes product candidates we have been quietly nurturing internally, which we expect to discuss in more detail later this year; those being brought to us by third parties; and those in which we already have a stake, such as the MELT-300 program. Finally, Harrow stockholders should know that while we expect normal seasonal revenue fluctuations, we are confident in the remainder of 2025, as demonstrated by our 2025 revenue guidance of ‘more than $280 million ,’ representing an increase over 2024 revenue of more than 40% in annual revenues.” Fourth-quarter and year-end 2024 figures of merit: For the Three Months Ended December 31 , For the Year Ended December 31 , 2024 2023 2024 2023 Total revenues $ 66,831,000 $ 36,355,000 $ 199,614,000 $ 130,193,000 Gross margin 79 % 69 % 75 % 70 % Core gross margin(1) 84 % 75 % 80 % 77 % Net income (loss) 6,777,000 (9,148,000 ) (17,481,000 ) (24,411,000 ) Core net income (loss)(1) 11,366,000 (7,016,000 ) (2,089,000 ) (11,512,000 ) Adjusted EBITDA(1) 22,489,000 2,563,000 40,327,000 28,119,000 Net income (loss) per share: Basic 0.19 (0.26 ) (0.49 ) (0.75 ) Diluted 0.24 (0.26 ) (0.49 ) (0.75 ) Core net income (loss) per share:(1) Basic 0.32 (0.20 ) (0.06 ) (0.35 ) Diluted 0.40 (0.20 ) (0.06 ) (0.35 ) (1) Core gross margin, core net income (loss), core basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (collectively, “Core Results”), and Adjusted EBITDA are non‑GAAP measures.

Adjusted EBITDA and Core Results are considered “non‑GAAP” financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the SEC . Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of the Company’s results of operations and the factors and trends affecting its business. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Core Results provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance because (i) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making; (ii) they exclude the impact of non-cash or, when specified, non-recurring items that are not directly attributable to the Company’s core operating performance and that may obscure trends in the Company’s core operating performance; and (iii) they are used by institutional investors and the analyst community to help analyze the Company’s results. However, Adjusted EBITDA, Core Results, and any other non‑GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further, non‑GAAP financial measures used by the Company and the way they are calculated may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures or the calculations of the same non‑GAAP financial measures used by other companies, including the Company’s competitors. Adjusted EBITDA The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding the effects of stock‑based compensation and expenses, impairment of intangible assets, interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, investment (income) loss, net, and, if any and when specified, other non-recurring income or expense items. Management believes that the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit or net loss as a measure of operating performance or to net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing, or financing activities as a measure of ability to meet cash needs. The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to the most comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss), for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 and for the same periods in 2023: HARROW, INC.

Core Results Harrow Core Results, including core gross margin, core net income (loss), and core basic and diluted income (loss) per share exclude (1) all amortization and impairment charges of intangible assets, excluding software development costs, (2) net gains and losses on investments and equity securities, including equity method gains and losses and equity valued at fair value through profit and loss (FVPL), and preferred stock dividends, and (3) gains/losses on forgiveness of debt. In certain periods, Core Results may also exclude fair value adjustments of financial assets in the form of options to acquire a company carried at FVPL, obligations related to product recalls, certain acquisition‑related items, restructuring charges/releases and associated items, related legal items, gains/losses on early extinguishment of debt or debt modifications, impairments of property, plant and equipment and software, as well as income and expense items that management deems exceptional and that are or are expected to accumulate within the year to be over a $100,000 threshold.
