1Q 2023 reported. Last Friday, the Company reported GAAP EPS of $4.91 per share, as compared to our estimate of $5.75 per share. With the announced asset transfer of ANJESO and write-off of contingent liabilities owed Alkermes, Baudax Bio re-classified the ANJESO operations as discontinued. While showing a net loss operationally, the positive EPS was due to the removal of the Alkermes contingent consideration liability.
Higher expenses in the quarter. The higher than expected expenses consisted primarily of a $2.1 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the previously disclosed amended credit agreement, and remaining discontinued operation property and equipment write-offs. In addition, continuing operation expenses were $223,000 higher than our estimate, related to higher neuromuscular blocker R&D expenditures.
