· | Sales in 2023 grew to a total of $24,092,787, primarily as a result of a full year of revenues generated by the acquisition of Nora Pharma in October 2022. Nora Pharma’s revenues for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, were $10,766,982. |
· | The average 2023 quarter-over-quarter growth rate in sales was 14%. |
· | Loss per share decreased from a negative $1.76 per share in 2022 to a negative $0.19 per share in 2023, predominantly due to a one-time write-off of goodwill in 2022. |
· | Completed a private placement of approximately $5 million in gross proceeds for use in part for expansion of sales operations. |
· | Repurchased 513,723 shares of the Company’s common stock on the market for a total of $541,143. |
· | The Company’s two proprietary drugs in development advanced to the animal testing stage for both SBFM-PL4 targeted for SARS Coronavirus infections and K1.1 mRNA for liver cancer. |
· | IND-enabling studies of Adva-27a anticancer compound were halted in November 2023 pending further analysis of unfavorable in vitro results obtained earlier in the year. |
“We are happy with our 2023 results, as we continue to strive to achieve profitability,” said Dr. Steve Slilaty, CEO of Sunshine Biopharma. “We look forward to further growth in 2024 and beyond as we expand our operations and bring more life-saving drugs to market,” he added.
