CUMBERLAND PHARMACEUTICALS REPORTS
SECOND QUARTER 2018 FINANCIAL RESULTS
- 17% Revenue Growth Over Prior Year Period

NASHVILLE, TN (Tuesday, August 14, 2018) - Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CPIX), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on hospital acute care, gastroenterology, and oncology supportive care today announced second quarter 2018 financial results and Company update. Cumberland has a portfolio of seven U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved brands. Net revenues for the quarter were $10.2 million, an increase of 17% over the prior year period and an 18% increase over the first quarter of this year. At the end of the second quarter, Cumberland had $90 million in total assets, including approximately $51 million in cash and marketable securities.
QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS:
New supplies of Vaprisol® replenished nationwide supply of that critical care product designed to treat hyponatremia - the most common electrolyte imbalance found in hospitalized patients.
Reached an agreement with Gastro-Entero-Logic, LLC (GEL) to acquire the assets associated with Omeclamox®-Pak
Completed patient enrollment in the initial Phase II clinical study for Portaban® - the Company’s product candidate for the treatment of Portal Hypertension
Caldolor® approved for sale in India with product launch preparations underway
“I am pleased to report several positive developments during the second quarter, with the most significant being the overall growth generated from our diversified portfolio of seven FDA approved brands." said A.J. Kazimi, Chief Executive Officer of Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. “Furthermore, we continue to advance on our robust clinical pipeline, highlighted by the expected near-term NDA filing for our new methotrexate product line. We believe there is significant potential value in our clinical pipeline and its development remains a top priority for the company.”
KEY DEVELOPMENTS:
GEL Agreement
In March 2018, Cumberland reached agreement with Gastro-Entero-Logic LLC, to acquire the assets associated with Omeclamox-Pak including the product’s FDA approved New Drug Application, trademarks and other assets. As a result of this acquisition, the Company will no longer be obligated to provide GEL





with royalties or fees for overseeing the product’s manufacturing. As part of this transaction Cumberland will become responsible for maintaining the FDA approval and for overseeing the product’s packaging.
Caldolor® Submission
In early 2018, the Company completed and filed the application for FDA approval of its Next Generation Caldolor product. During the second quarter, the FDA notified Cumberland of their acceptance of the submission for review. The product features a new, patented formulation in a more convenient to use package. There were then a number of communications with questions addressed through multiple amendments submitted to the application. On August 2, 2018 the FDA provided a complete response outlining additional information needed for the applications approval. The requests are for additional quality and nonclinical data. The next step involves discussion with the FDA and clarification on the additional requested items.
RediTrexTM Approval Submission
Cumberland is preparing to file its New Drug Application for the approval of the Company’s methotrexate product line. This application follows two meetings held with the FDA to discuss the approval pathway and requirements for the submission. Once the application is filed with the FDA, Cumberland will await the FDA’s determination of acceptance of the submission for its review.
CET Collaboration Agreement
Cumberland Emerging Technologies (CET), Cumberland’s majority-owned subsidiary, and Louisiana State University entered into an agreement, adding to CET’s roster of academic collaborations which also includes Vanderbilt University, the University of Mississippi, and the University of Tennessee Research Foundation. These partnerships combine the strengths and capabilities of each organization by working together to identify, formulate, and develop attractive new biomedical products.
New Executive Appointment
The Company recently announced that biopharmaceutical industry veteran Adam Haeberle, Ph.D. joined as Senior Director, Clinical & Regulatory Affairs. Dr. Haeberle joined Cumberland from Amgen Inc., where he held a series of director level clinical development roles. At Amgen he led clinical development initiatives and held responsibility for innovating and increasing the overall efficiency of Amgen’s cardiovascular portfolio.
Before Amgen, Dr. Haberle was Senior Manager, Clinical Development at Baxter Healthcare Corporation. There he led clinical activities for Baxter’s Alpha-1 Protease Inhibitor franchise and was a clinical representative for the approval submission of Baxter’s immunodeficiency brand HyQVIA® (immune globulin with hyaluronidase) and a subject matter expert for the acquisitions business development team.

FINANCIAL RESULTS:
Net Revenue: For the three months ended June 30, 2018, net revenues were $10.2 million, compared to $8.7 million for the prior year period.

Total operating expenses for the first six months of 2018 were $22.1 million compared to $20.6 million for 2017.
Earnings: Net income (loss) for the second quarter 2018 was $(0.7) million or $(0.05) per diluted share, compared to $(5.2) million or $(0.32) a share for the prior year period.
Adjusted Earnings for the second quarter were $0.2 million or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $(0.7) million or $(0.05) per diluted share for the prior year period. The definition and reconciliation of Adjusted Earnings to net income is provided in this release.

For more information on Cumberland’s approved products, including full prescribing information, please visit the individual product websites, links to which can be found on the Company’s website www.cumberlandpharma.com.
About Acetadote® (acetylcysteine) Injection
Acetadote, administered intravenously within 8 to 10 hours after ingestion of a potentially hepatotoxic quantity of acetaminophen, is indicated to prevent or lessen hepatic injury. Used in the emergency department, Acetadote is approved in the U.S. to treat overdose of acetaminophen, a common ingredient in many over-the-counter medications.
Acetadote is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity or previous anaphylactoid reactions to acetylcysteine or any components of the preparation. Serious anaphylactoid reactions, including death in a patient with asthma, have been reported in patients administered acetylcysteine intravenously. Acetadote should be used with caution in patients with asthma or where there is a history of bronchospasm. The total volume administered should be adjusted for patients weighing less than 40 kg and for those requiring fluid restriction. To avoid fluid overload, the volume of diluent should be reduced as needed. If volume is not adjusted, fluid overload can occur, potentially resulting in hyponatremia, seizure and death. For full prescribing information, visit www.acetadote.com.





About Caldolor® (ibuprofen) Injection
Caldolor is indicated in adults and pediatric patients for the management of mild to moderate pain and management of moderate to severe pain as an adjunct to opioid analgesics, as well as the reduction of fever. It was the first FDA-approved intravenous therapy for fever. Caldolor is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to ibuprofen or other NSAIDs, patients with a history of asthma or other allergic type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs. Caldolor is contraindicated for use during the peri-operative period in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Caldolor should be used with caution in patients with prior history of ulcer disease or GI bleeding, in patients with fluid retention or heart failure, in the elderly, those with renal impairment, heart failure, liver impairment, and those taking diuretics or ACE inhibitors. Blood pressure should be monitored during treatment with Caldolor. For full prescribing information, including boxed warning, visit www.caldolor.com .
About Kristalose® (lactulose) Oral Solution
Kristalose is indicated for the treatment of acute and chronic constipation. It is a unique, proprietary, crystalline form of lactulose, with no restrictions on length of therapy or patient age. Initial dosing may produce flatulence and intestinal cramps, which are usually transient. Excessive dosage can lead to diarrhea with potential complications such as loss of fluids, hypokalemia and hypernatremia. Nausea and vomiting have been reported. Use with caution in diabetics. Kristalose is contraindicated in patients who require a low-galactose diet. Elderly, debilitated patients who receive lactulose for more than six months should have serum electrolytes (potassium, chloride, carbon dioxide) measured periodically. For full prescribing information, visit www.kristalose.com.
About Omeclamox®-Pak (omeprazole, clarithromycin, amoxicillin)
Omeprazole is an antisecretory drug, which works by decreasing the amount of acid the stomach produces. Clarithromycin and amoxicillin are antibacterial drugs, which inhibit the growth of bacteria allowing the stomach lining to heal. Omeclamox-Pak is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to omeprazole, any macrolide antibiotic or penicillin. The safety and effectiveness of Omeclamox-Pak in the pediatric population has not yet been established. Omeclamox-Pak was approved by the FDA in 2011. For full prescribing information, visit www.omeclamox.com.
About Vaprisol® (conivaptan hydrochloride) Injection
Vaprisol is an intravenous treatment for hyponatremia used in the critical care setting. Hyponatremia is an electrolyte disturbance in which sodium ion concentration in blood plasma is lower than normal. This can be associated with a variety of critical care conditions including congestive heart failure, liver failure, kidney failure and pneumonia. The product is a vasopressin receptor antagonist that raises serum sodium levels and promotes free water secretion. Vaprisol was approved by the FDA in 2005 for euvolemic hyponatremia and in 2007 for hypervolemic hyponatremia. For full prescribing information, visit www.vaprisol.com.
About Ethyol® (amifostine) Injection
Ethyol is indicated to reduce the cumulative renal toxicity associated with repeated administration of cisplatin in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. It is indicated to reduce the incidence of moderate to severe xerostomia in patients undergoing post-operative radiation treatment for head and neck cancer, where the radiation port includes a substantial portion of the parotid glands. For more information please visit www.ethyol.com.






About Totect® (dexrazoxane) Injection
Totect is an anthracycline extravasation agent approved by the FDA. Anthracyclines are used to treat many types of cancer and are among the most common cancer therapies.
Anthracycline extravasation occurs when there is accidental leaking of the intravenously-administered medication into the surrounding tissues. Anthracycline extravasation can result in serious complications for cancer patients including tissue necrosis with skin ulceration. In addition to tissue damage, an anthracycline extravasation may cause damage to the nerves, tendons, muscle, and joints. For more information please visit www.totect.com.

(a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland.






The Company provided the above adjusted supplemental financial performance measures, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others.
Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.
Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the Company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the Company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes. In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the Company's operating performance.

The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows:
Adjusted Earnings (loss): net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation and interest income and interest expense.
 
    
Adjusted Diluted Earnings (loss) Per Share: Adjusted Earnings (loss) divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.
