• NILEMDO’s launch is off to a strong start, with nearly CAD 250,000 shipped in just over a month and repeated wholesale reorders indicating early demand. Canada Life and Sun Life have already added the drug with full coverage and no restrictions, covering about 40% of privately insured lives.
• The company reaffirmed 2026 guidance for revenue of CAD 56 million-CAD 60 million and adjusted EBITDA of CAD 18.5 million-CAD 21 million. Management said launch-related spending will be concentrated in the first half of the year, with margins expected to improve as NILEMDO revenue ramps.

• Management sees two major growth catalysts ahead: public reimbursement for NILEMDO in 2027 and a planned launch of NEXLETOL in the first half of 2027. They said the combined cardiovascular franchise could potentially more than double the size of the company over time.
