Company to host conference call today at 8:30am ET

DALLAS and FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Neos Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: NEOS), a fully integrated pharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing innovative extended-release (XR) products using its proprietary modified-release drug delivery technologies, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018 and provided a business update.

“Second quarter revenues for our ADHD products were $10.8 million which represents a 22.5% growth over first quarter revenues. With over 7,500 prescribers of Adzenys XR-ODT and over 4,700 prescribers of Cotempla XR-ODT in the second quarter alone, we believe we are in a strong position to drive prescription growth as many school-aged ADHD patients visit their health care provider for back to school physicals,” said Jerry McLaughlin, Chief Executive Officer of Neos Therapeutics. “Our ADHD products provide a solid and growing base of business and our primary goals are to continue to increase market share for these products, achieve profitability and strategically expand our pipeline and commercial product portfolio. With continued careful management of our cash flow, we are happy to report a cash position of approximately $29.1 million at the end of July versus a cash position of $28.0 million at the end of June.”

Continued growth in prescription trends for Adzenys XR-ODT and Cotempla XR-ODT builds momentum for the upcoming back to school season.
