Nutriband Reports FY22 Revenue of $1.4M, Net Loss of $6.4M

Nutriband Inc. (NTRB), a developer of transdermal pharmaceutical products, today announced financial and operational results for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022.

Key Highlights:

• Generated record revenue of $1.4 million, up 56% over the prior fiscal year
• Completed uplisting to Nasdaq Capital Market in October 2021 and concurrent offering that raised total gross proceeds of approx. $8.7 million
• Signed agreement with Kindeva Drug Delivery, a leading global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) with a rich legacy of over 50 years of pharmaceutical innovation as 3M Drug Delivery Systems, to develop AVERSA™ Fentanyl, the Company's proprietary abuse deterrent fentanyl patch
• Expanded AVERSA™ intellectual property portfolio with patents now issued in 44 countries; AVERSA™ patent coverage includes the U.S., Europe, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Australia, and Russia, with patents pending in China and Canada
• Stockholders' equity increased 28% to 11.9 million

"Our record financial results and multiple major achievements in fiscal 2022 were a direct result of the hard work and exceptional execution of our dedicated team," commented Gareth Sheridan, CEO of Nutriband. "With improved access to capital and the enhanced credibility of being a Nasdaq-listed company, I believe Nutriband is well positioned to excel in the quarters ahead as we move forward with the development of our lead product, AVERSA™ Fentanyl."

"According to an assessment by Health Advances, AVERSA Fentanyl could reach peak annual sales of between $80 million and $200 million. If the entire transdermal fentanyl market moves toward abuse deterrent patches, similar to what occurred in the extended-release oral opioid market, the potential could be significantly greater," continued Sheridan. "I want to thank our shareholders for their ongoing support as we continue to execute on our vision of commercializing our innovative transdermal abuse deterrent technology, AVERSA™."
