Forward Guidance
Aytu BioPharma is focused on developing novel treatments, including AR101, for pediatric-onset diseases and aims to initiate the PREVEnt registrational study by mid-2022. The company expects the tech transfer of Adzenys XR-ODT and Cotempla XR-ODT to drive a significant improvement in gross profit margin across the company’s ADHD product portfolio and reduce working capital requirements associated with inventory purchases. The company remains on-track to complete this transition by the middle of calendar year 2023.
