"We're very pleased with our strong start to the year, delivering another quarter of outstanding revenue growth," said John Shannon, Xeris' Chief Executive Officer. "Our performance reflects sustained momentum across the portfolio, led by strong demand for Recorlev and is a testament to the disciplined execution of our growth strategy." Mr. Shannon continued, "Given our exceptional first quarter performance, as well as strong continued momentum and confidence in the business, we have tightened full-year 2025 total revenue guidance to $260 million to $275 million. This revision from our previous range of $255 million to $275 million underscores the success of our strategic initiatives and our commitment to driving sustainable growth while delivering value to our patients and shareholders."

First Quarter 2025 Highlights

• Recorlev®: First quarter net revenue was $25.5 million – an increase of approximately 141% compared to the first quarter of 2024. This growth was primarily driven by the average number of patients on Recorlev increasing 124% from the same period in 2024.
• Gvoke®: First quarter net revenue was $20.8 million – an increase of approximately 26% compared to the first quarter of 2024. Gvoke prescriptions grew 8% compared to the same period in 2024.
• Keveyis®: First quarter net revenue was $11.4 million – a decrease of approximately 13% compared to the first quarter of 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in product shipments in the period. On a sequential basis, net revenue and total patients on Keveyis were both slightly up.
• Royalty, contract and other revenue: In the first quarter, Xeris obtained FDA approval for Gvoke VialDx^TM and received an approval-based milestone from its partner, American Regent, which made up a majority of Other Revenue.

Cost of goods sold (COGS) increased $2.8 million or 46% in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily due to an increase in product revenue.

Research and development (R&D) expenses were relatively flat in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. Expenses in the quarter supported the Company's pipeline, notably XP-8121, and included personnel related expenses and continued investment in the Company's technology platforms and partnerships.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased $5.6 million or 15% in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to incremental investment in the Recorlev commercial organization starting in the third quarter of 2024 as well as other personnel related expenses.

Net Loss for the first quarter was $9.2 million or ($0.06) per share.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ for the first quarter was positive $4.4 million, an improvement of $8.4 million compared to the first quarter of 2024.

Total Shares Outstanding were 160,155,000 at April 30, 2025.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes financial results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and also certain historical and forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, namely Adjusted EBITDA. This non-GAAP financial measure is not meant to be considered in isolation and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and was not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the calculation of the non-GAAP financial measure included herein may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed in conjunction with actual GAAP results, provides investors with a more meaningful understanding of the Company's ongoing and projected operating performance, exclusive of factors that do not directly affect what the Company considers to be its core operating performance, as well as unusual events. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure helps indicate underlying trends in the Company's business and is important in comparing current results with prior period results and understanding expected operating performance. Also, management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to establish budgets and operational goals, and to manage the Company's business and evaluate its performance. In addition, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is important in evaluating the administrative costs of operating the Company's business.

Adjusted EBITDA is GAAP net income (loss) before income tax (benefit) expense, plus interest and other income, less depreciation and amortization, interest expenses, share based compensation and debt refinancing fees.
