TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCRX), the industry leader in its commitment to non-opioid pain management and regenerative health solutions, today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2023.
Third Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights
- Total revenues of $163.9 million
- Net product sales of $128.7 million for EXPAREL, $28.8 million for ZILRETTA, and $5.3 million for iovera°
- Net income of $10.9 million, or $0.23 per share (basic and diluted)
- Adjusted EBITDA of $52.9 million
See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.
“Pacira continues to operate from a position of financial strength with substantial revenues, improving gross margins, and ongoing operating discipline, which have resulted in significantly positive adjusted EBITDA of $53 million for the third quarter,” said Dave Stack, chairman and chief executive officer of Pacira BioSciences. “Our strong and durable cash flows, fueled by EXPAREL exclusivity through 2041, leave us well positioned to self-fund our growth and deliver multiple value-creating milestones in the coming year including the anticipated launch of EXPAREL in two key lower extremity nerve blocks. Looking ahead, we will continue to actively manage operating expenses while deploying capital in a manner we believe will maximize shareholder return and unlock the significant untapped potential within our best-in-class opioid-sparing commercial portfolio.”
Recent Business Highlights
- Four New Independent Directors Appointed to Board of Directors. In October 2023, the company announced the appointments of Marcelo Bigal, MD, PhD, Abraham Ceesay, Michael Yang, and Alethia Young, to its Board of Directors. Each of the new directors adds diversity of experience and background to the Pacira board of directors, while also enhancing racial and gender diversity. Pacira now has 12 experienced directors, all with relevant industry experience.
- New Initiatives Supporting the American Society of Anesthesiologists to Advance Education and Enhance Patient Care. In October 2023, the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) and Pacira announced a new grant from Pacira to the ASA Charitable Foundation to advance the medical specialty of anesthesiology and pain medicine, facilitate best-in-class clinician education and improve patient care. The company has also joined ASA’s Industry Supporter Program to support the Society’s more than 56,000 physician anesthesiologist members to improve patient care and reduce reliance on opioids for the treatment of postsurgical or chronic pain.
- Leadership Succession Plan. In September 2023, the company announced that David Stack will retire from his role as chairman and chief executive officer. To ensure a seamless transition, Mr. Stack has committed to continuing in his current role until a replacement is appointed by the Board of Directors after which Mr. Stack will continue with the company in a consulting role through August 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release contains financial measures that do not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), such as non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP cost of goods sold, non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expense, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per common share, non-GAAP weighted average diluted common shares outstanding, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and adjusted EBITDA, because these non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of items that management believes affect comparability or underlying business trends.
These measures supplement the company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Pacira management uses these measures to better analyze its financial results, estimate its future cost of goods sold, R&D expense and SG&A expense outlook for 2023 and to help make managerial decisions. In management’s opinion, these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and other users of the company’s financial statements by providing greater transparency into the ongoing operating performance of Pacira and its future outlook. Such measures should not be deemed to be an alternative to GAAP requirements or a measure of liquidity for Pacira. The non-GAAP measures presented here are also unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP disclosures released by other companies. See the tables below for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.
About Pacira
Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCRX) is committed to providing non-opioid pain management options to as many patients as possible to redefine the role of opioids as rescue therapy only. The company is also developing innovative interventions to address debilitating conditions involving the sympathetic nervous system, such as cardiac electrical storm, chronic pain, and spasticity. Pacira has three commercial-stage non-opioid treatments: EXPAREL® (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension), a long-acting local analgesic currently approved for infiltration, fascial plane block, and as an interscalene brachial plexus nerve block for postsurgical pain management; ZILRETTA® (triamcinolone acetonide extended-release injectable suspension), an extended-release, intra-articular injection indicated for the management of osteoarthritis knee pain; and ioveraº®, a novel, handheld device for delivering immediate, long-acting, drug-free pain control using precise, controlled doses of cold temperature to a targeted nerve. To learn more about Pacira, including the corporate mission to reduce overreliance on opioids, visit www.pacira.com.
About EXPAREL® (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension)
EXPAREL is indicated for single-dose infiltration in patients 6 years of age and older to produce postsurgical local analgesia and in adults as an interscalene brachial plexus nerve block to produce postsurgical regional analgesia. Safety and efficacy have not been established in other nerve blocks. The product combines bupivacaine with multivesicular liposomes, a proven product delivery technology that delivers medication over a desired time period. EXPAREL represents the first and only multivesicular liposome local anesthetic that can be utilized in the peri- or postsurgical setting. By utilizing the multivesicular liposome platform, a single dose of EXPAREL delivers bupivacaine over time, providing significant reductions in cumulative pain scores with up to a 78 percent decrease in opioid consumption; the clinical benefit of the opioid reduction was not demonstrated in the pivotal trials. Additional information is available at www.EXPAREL.com.
Important Safety Information about EXPAREL for Patients
EXPAREL should not be used in obstetrical paracervical block anesthesia. In studies in adults where EXPAREL was injected into a wound, the most common side effects were nausea, constipation, and vomiting. In studies in adults where EXPAREL was injected near a nerve, the most common side effects were nausea, fever, and constipation. In the study where EXPAREL was given to children, the most common side effects were nausea, vomiting, constipation, low blood pressure, low number of red blood cells, muscle twitching, blurred vision, itching, and rapid heartbeat. EXPAREL can cause a temporary loss of feeling and/or loss of muscle movement. How much and how long the loss of feeling and/or muscle movement depends on where and how much of EXPAREL was injected and may last for up to 5 days. EXPAREL is not recommended to be used in patients younger than 6 years old for injection into the wound, for patients younger than 18 years old for injection near a nerve, and/or in pregnant women. Tell your health care provider if you or your child has liver disease, since this may affect how the active ingredient (bupivacaine) in EXPAREL is eliminated from the body. EXPAREL should not be injected into the spine, joints, or veins. The active ingredient in EXPAREL can affect the nervous system and the cardiovascular system; may cause an allergic reaction; may cause damage if injected into the joints; and can cause a rare blood disorder.
About ZILRETTA® (triamcinolone acetonide extended-release injectable suspension)
On October 6, 2017, ZILRETTA was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as the first and only extended-release intra-articular therapy for patients confronting osteoarthritis (OA)- related knee pain. ZILRETTA employs proprietary microsphere technology combining triamcinolone acetonide—a commonly administered, short-acting corticosteroid—with a poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) matrix to provide extended pain relief. The pivotal Phase 3 trial on which the approval of ZILRETTA was based showed that ZILRETTA significantly reduced OA knee pain for 12 weeks, with some people experiencing pain relief through Week 16. Learn more at www.zilretta.com.
Indication and Select Important Safety Information for ZILRETTA
Indication: ZILRETTA is indicated as an intra-articular injection for the management of OA pain of the knee. Limitation of Use: The efficacy and safety of repeat administration of ZILRETTA have not been demonstrated.
Contraindication: ZILRETTA is contraindicated in patients who are hypersensitive to triamcinolone acetonide, corticosteroids or any components of the product.
Warnings and Precautions:
- Intra-articular Use Only: ZILRETTA has not been evaluated and should not be administered by epidural, intrathecal, intravenous, intraocular, intramuscular, intradermal, or subcutaneous routes. ZILRETTA should not be considered safe for epidural or intrathecal administration.
- Serious Neurologic Adverse Reactions with Epidural and Intrathecal Administration: Serious neurologic events have been reported following epidural or intrathecal corticosteroid administration. Corticosteroids are not approved for this use.
- Hypersensitivity reactions: Serious reactions have been reported with triamcinolone acetonide injection. Institute appropriate care if an anaphylactic reaction occurs.
- Joint infection and damage: A marked increase in joint pain, joint swelling, restricted motion, fever and malaise may suggest septic arthritis. If this occurs, conduct appropriate evaluation and if confirmed, institute appropriate antimicrobial treatment.
Adverse Reactions: The most commonly reported adverse reactions (incidence ≥1%) in clinical studies included sinusitis, cough, and contusions.

About iovera°®
The iovera° system uses the body’s natural response to cold to treat peripheral nerves and immediately reduce pain without the use of drugs. Treated nerves are temporarily stopped from sending pain signals for a period of time, followed by a restoration of function. Treatment with iovera° works by applying targeted cold to a peripheral nerve. A precise cold zone is formed under the skin that is cold enough to immediately prevent the nerve from sending pain signals without causing damage to surrounding structures. The effect on the nerve is temporary, providing pain relief until the nerve regenerates and function is restored. Treatment with iovera° does not include injection of any substance, opioid, or any other drug. The effect is immediate and can last up to 90 days. The iovera° system is not indicated for treatment of central nervous system tissue. Additional information is available at www.iovera.com.
Indication and Select Important Safety Information for iovera°®
Indication: iovera° applies freezing cold to peripheral nerve tissue to block and/or relieve pain for up to 90 days. It should not be used to treat central nervous system tissue.
Important Safety Information
- Do not receive treatment with iovera° if you experience hypersensitivity to cold or have open and/or infected wounds near the treatment site.
- You may experience bruising, swelling, inflammation and/or redness, local pain and/or tenderness, and altered feeling at the site of application.
- In treatment area(s), you may experience damage to the skin, skin darkening or lightening, and dimples in the skin.
- You may experience a temporary loss of your ability to use your muscles normally outside of the treatment area.
- Talk to your doctor before receiving treatment with iovera°.

| (1) The severance-related expenses in 2022 substantially relates to former employees released in connection with the acquisition of Flexion Therapeutics, Inc. (“Flexion”) in November 2021. | |||||||||||||||
| (2) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, acquisition-related fees and expenses primarily related to vacant and underutilized leases assumed from acquiring Flexion. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, acquisition-related fees and expenses primarily related to legal and other professional fees, third-party services and other one-time charges associated with the Flexion acquisition. | |||||||||||||||
| (3) In June 2023, the Company implemented a restructuring plan in an effort to improve its operational efficiencies. The restructuring charges are predominantly related to one-time employee termination benefits through a reduction of headcount, such as severance and related costs. | |||||||||||||||
| (4) The tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments is computed by: (i) applying the statutory tax rate to the income or expense adjusted items, (ii) applying a zero-tax rate to adjusted items where a valuation allowance exists, and (iii) excluding discrete tax benefits and expenses primarily associated with tax deductible and non-deductible stock-based compensation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the GAAP effective income tax rates were approximately 35% and 39%, respectively, and the non-GAAP effective income tax rates for both periods was approximately 24%, with the difference from GAAP primarily due to the impact of excluding discrete tax expenses associated with non-deductible stock-based compensation and tax expenses related to executive compensation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the GAAP effective income tax rates were approximately 133% and 17%, respectively, and the non-GAAP effective income tax rates were approximately 29% and 27%, respectively, with the difference from GAAP primarily due to the impact of excluding tax expenses related non-U.S. valuation allowances, non-deductible capital loss and executive compensation and excluding tax benefits related to acquisition items. The non-GAAP effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 also excludes discrete tax benefits associated with deductible stock-based compensation. | |||||||||||||||
| (5) For the three months ended September 30, 2023, there were no non-GAAP adjustments when calculating the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding or the interest expense add back under the “if-converted” method. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the $402.5 million convertible senior notes due 2025, or 2025 Notes, were excluded on a GAAP basis as the impact to diluted net income (loss) per common share would have been antidilutive. These potential securities resulted in a dilutive impact on diluted net income per common share reported on a non-GAAP basis. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2023, non-GAAP adjustments to diluted weighted average shares outstanding included the impact of the 2025 Notes, as if they converted on the first day of the period presented, which resulted in an additional 5.6 million of common shares in each period upon an assumed conversion and added back $1.0 million and $3.1 million, respectively, of interest expense, net of tax, to non-GAAP net income. The Company has the option to settle its 2025 Notes in cash, shares of the Company's common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Company's common stock. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the $160.0 million convertible senior notes due 2022, or 2022 Notes, were excluded on a GAAP basis as the impact to diluted net income per common share would have been antidilutive. These potential securities resulted in a dilutive impact on diluted net income per common share reported on a non-GAAP basis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, non-GAAP adjustments to diluted weighted average shares outstanding included the impact of the 2022 Notes, as if they were converted on the first day of the period presented, which resulted in adding an additional 0.8 million of common shares upon an assumed conversion and added back $0.9 million of interest expense, net of tax, to net income. On April 1, 2022, the Company repaid the principal portion of its 2022 Notes in cash. Prior year amounts may have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. | |||||||||||||||
