STOUGHTON, Mass., Nov. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Collegium Pharmaceutical, Inc. (Nasdaq: COLL), a leading biopharmaceutical company focused on improving the lives of people living with serious and often misunderstood conditions, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, and provided a business update.

“We continued to see strong demand across our ADHD portfolio, supported by expanded commercial efforts heading into the back-to-school season. JORNAY PM reached record revenues, prescriptions and prescriber adoption, with quarterly net revenue growing 24% year-over-year,” said Vikram Karnani, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, in the first full quarter of Collegium’s ownership of AZSTARYS, revenues exceeded $26.5 million supported by nearly 2% prescription growth year-over-year. This represents a meaningful improvement from AZSTARYS’ annual prescription decline in 2025, prior to its acquisition by Collegium. These results demonstrate our ability to rapidly integrate differentiated medicines and execute targeted commercial investments to drive growth. Our pain portfolio also continues to provide a strong financial foundation as we expand our ADHD business and pursue additional opportunities to further grow and diversify Collegium.”

“We generated a record $216.3 million in quarterly net revenue and $121.6 million in adjusted EBITDA, with our ADHD franchise now contributing more than 36% of total revenue,” said Colleen Tupper, Chief Financial Officer. “We are reaffirming our full-year 2026 financial guidance and remain committed to deploying capital in a disciplined manner, including executing on business development, paying down debt, and opportunistically returning capital to shareholders to create long-term value. Consistent with our strong cash-generation profile and capital allocation strategy, we expect to complete the previously announced $50 million accelerated share repurchase program before the end of the year, underscoring our confidence in the company’s long-term growth prospects.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we have included information about certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide analysts, investors, lenders, and other third parties with insights into how we evaluate normal operational activities, including our ability to generate cash from operations, on a comparable year-over-year basis and manage our budgeting and forecasting. In addition, certain non-GAAP financial measures, primarily adjusted EBITDA, are used to measure performance when determining components of annual compensation for substantially all non-sales force employees, including senior management.

In this press release we discuss the following financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude interest expense, interest income, the benefit from or provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other adjustments to reflect changes that occur in our business but do not represent ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA, as used by us, may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

There are several limitations related to the use of adjusted EBITDA rather than net income or loss, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent, such as:

• adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated or amortized may have to be replaced in the future, the cash requirements for which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA;
• adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs;
• adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the benefit from or provision for income taxes or the cash requirements to pay taxes;
• adjusted EBITDA does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• we exclude stock-based compensation expense from adjusted EBITDA although: (i) it has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy; and (ii) if we did not pay out a portion of our compensation in the form of stock-based compensation, the cash salary expense included in operating expenses would be higher, which would affect our cash position;
• we exclude impairment expenses from adjusted EBITDA and, although these are non-cash expenses, the asset(s) being impaired may have to be replaced in the future, the cash requirements for which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA;
• we exclude restructuring expenses from adjusted EBITDA. Restructuring expenses primarily include employee severance and contract termination costs that are not related to acquisitions. The amount and/or frequency of these restructuring expenses are not part of our underlying business;
• we exclude litigation settlements and contingencies that are subject to recovery from adjusted EBITDA, as well as any applicable income items, credit adjustments, or recoveries due to subsequent changes in estimates. This does not include our legal fees to defend claims, which are expensed as incurred;
• we exclude acquisition-related expenses as these expenses would not have otherwise been incurred in the periods presented as part of our continuing operations and their exclusion is useful to investors because it enhances comparability of operating performance across periods. Acquisition-related expenses include transaction costs, which primarily consisted of financial advisory, banking, legal, and regulatory fees, and other consulting fees, incurred to complete the acquisition, employee-related expenses (severance cost and benefits) for terminated employees after the acquisition, legal defense expenses for specific acquired claims that relate to acts that occurred prior to our acquisition, and miscellaneous other acquisition-related expenses incurred;
• we exclude recognition of the step-up basis in inventory from acquisitions (i.e., the adjustment to record inventory from historic cost to fair value at acquisition) as the adjustment does not reflect the ongoing expense associated with the sale of our products as part of our underlying business;
• we exclude changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, which are non-cash, acquisition-related items that are not part of our underlying business;
• we exclude losses on extinguishments of debt as these expenses are episodic in nature and do not directly correlate to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis;
• we exclude executive transition expenses from adjusted EBITDA as the amount and/or frequency of these expenses are episodic in nature and do not directly correlate to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis; and
• we exclude other expenses, from time to time, that are episodic in nature and do not directly correlate to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis.
  
  

The Company has not provided a reconciliation of its full-year 2026 guidance for adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, because the Company is unable to predict, without unreasonable efforts, the timing and amount of items that would be included in such a reconciliation, including, but not limited to, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and changes in fair value of contingent consideration. These items are uncertain and depend on various factors that are outside of the Company’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. While the Company is unable to address the probable significance of these items, they could have a material impact on GAAP net income and operating expenses for the guidance period. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA would imply a degree of precision and certainty as to these future items that does not exist and could be confusing to investors.
