FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NEWS RELEASE

Pacira BioSciences Reports First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

-- First quarter revenue of $158 million, up 33% over prior year --
-- Strong topline performance delivers net income and significantly positive adjusted EBITDA --
-- Conference call today at 8:30 a.m. ET --

TAMPA, FL, May 4, 2022 - Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCRX), the industry leader in its commitment to non-opioid pain management and regenerative health solutions, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2022.
First Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights
Total revenues of $158.0 million
Net product sales of $129.2 million for EXPAREL, $23.6 million for ZILRETTA, and $3.0 million for iovera°
Net income of $6.8 million, or $0.15 per share (basic and diluted)
Adjusted EBITDA of $53.8 million, or $1.20 per share (basic) and $1.16 per share (diluted)
“We were delighted to end the first quarter of 2022 with record high EXPAREL sales for the month of March, which underscores the significant progress we continue to make despite operational headwinds in the elective surgery market due to COVID and labor-related disruptions,” said Dave Stack, chairman and chief executive officer of Pacira BioSciences. “The successful integration of the Flexion acquisition was evidenced by strong ZILRETTA sales in the first quarter, which we expect to be an important near- and long-term contributor to earnings.”

“We look forward to completing our two Phase 3 studies of EXPAREL for lower extremity nerve block and to launching new high-potential registration programs evaluating EXPAREL as a stellate ganglion block for cardiac dysrhythmia. Additionally, as the market moves rapidly toward ultrasound-guided iovera° blocks delivered by pain management specialists, we plan to use our IGOR registry to publish real-world evidence to better support our commercial initiatives,” continued Mr. Stack.

Recent Business Highlights

Daryl Gaugler Appointed Chief Operating Officer. Today the company is announcing the appointment of Daryl Gaugler to the position of Chief Operating Officer effective May 4, 2022. Mr. Gaugler has served as the company’s Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations since June 2019. Mr. Gaugler is a seasoned life sciences executive with 30 years




of experience in commercial leadership that includes building and directing over 400 commercial teams and designing go-to-market strategies for more than 20 companies. Prior to Pacira, Mr. Gaugler spent over 20 years with the Quintiles Transnational organization (now IQVIA). In his most recent role at Quintiles, President of North America Commercial Solutions, Mr. Gaugler delivered significant revenue and profit growth while leading customer satisfaction and employee engagement within the organization.

New EXPAREL Patents. In March and April 2022, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (U.S. PTO) issued Patent Numbers 11,278,494, 11,304,904 and 11,311,486. The ‘494 and ‘486 patents cover composition of EXPAREL while the ‘904 is a product by process patent, each having an expiration date of January 22, 2041. All three patents are now listed in the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalents Evaluations (Orange-Book).

Second Innovation and Training Facility. The company recently launched development plans for its second training facility in Houston, Texas. This 19,000 square-feet state-of-the-art facility will feature an adaptive lecture hall, broadcast studio, and lab space for cadaver and other interactive workshops. Together with the company’s Tampa facility, this second training center will play a core role in developing physician champions and community-based clinicians who want to stay on the forefront of opioid-sparing pain management. The company expects to open the Houston facility before the end of 2022 to host programs for EXPAREL, ZILRETTA and iovera°.

See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.
Financial Guidance
The company’s product sales continue to be impacted by COVID-19, which has caused significant postponement or suspension in the scheduling of elective surgical procedures resulting from public health guidance and government directives. Given the continued uncertainty around COVID-19 and the pace of recovery for the elective surgery market, the company is currently not providing revenue or gross margin guidance. To provide greater transparency, Pacira is reporting monthly intra-quarter unaudited net product sales for EXPAREL and iovera° until it has gained enough visibility around the impacts of COVID-19. Pacira is also providing weekly EXPAREL utilization and elective surgery data within its investor presentation, which is accessible at investor.pacira.com. Pacira is currently not reporting preliminary monthly ZILRETTA net product sales as the required adjustments for certain product rebate programs are calculated after the end of the quarter.
Today the company is reiterating its full-year 2022 operating expense guidance as follows:
Non-GAAP R&D expense of $75 million to $85 million;
Non-GAAP SG&A expense of $220 million to $230 million; and
Stock-based compensation of $40 million to $45 million.
See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release contains financial measures that do not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), such as non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per common share, non-GAAP cost of goods sold, non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expense, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense, adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) and adjusted EBITDA per share, because these non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of items that management believes affect comparability or underlying business trends.

These measures supplement the company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Pacira management uses these measures to better analyze its financial results, estimate its future cost of goods sold, R&D expense and SG&A expense outlook for 2022 and to help make managerial decisions. In management’s opinion, these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements by providing greater transparency into the operating performance of Pacira and its future outlook. Such measures should not be deemed to be an alternative to GAAP requirements or a measure of liquidity for Pacira. Non-GAAP measures are also unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP disclosures released by other companies. See the tables below for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.

About Pacira
Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCRX) is committed to providing a non-opioid option to as many patients as possible to redefine the role of opioids as rescue therapy only. The company is also developing innovative interventions to address debilitating conditions involving the sympathetic nervous system, such as cardiac electrical storm, chronic pain, and spasticity. Pacira has three commercial-stage non-opioid treatments: EXPAREL® (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension), a long-acting local analgesic currently approved for infiltration, fascial plane block, and as an interscalene brachial plexus nerve block for postsurgical pain management; ZILRETTA® (triamcinolone acetonide extended-release injectable suspension), an extended-release, intra-articular injection indicated for the management of osteoarthritis knee pain; and ioveraº®, a novel, handheld device for delivering immediate, long-acting, drug-free pain control using precise, controlled doses of cold temperature to a targeted nerve. To learn more about Pacira, including the corporate mission to reduce overreliance on opioids, visit www.pacira.com.




About EXPAREL®

EXPAREL (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension) is indicated in patients 6 years of age and older for single-dose infiltration to produce postsurgical local analgesia, and in adults as an interscalene brachial plexus nerve block to produce postsurgical regional analgesia. Safety and efficacy have not been established in other nerve blocks. The product combines bupivacaine with multivesicular liposomes, a proven product delivery technology that delivers medication over a desired time period. EXPAREL represents the first and only multivesicular liposome local anesthetic that can be utilized in the peri- or postsurgical setting. By utilizing the multivesicular liposome platform, a single dose of EXPAREL delivers bupivacaine over time, providing significant reductions in cumulative pain scores with up to a 78 percent decrease in opioid consumption; the clinical benefit of the opioid reduction was not demonstrated. Additional information is available at www.EXPAREL.com.

Important Safety Information about EXPAREL for Patients

EXPAREL should not be used in obstetrical paracervical block anesthesia. In studies in adults where EXPAREL was injected into a wound, the most common side effects were nausea, constipation, and vomiting. In studies in adults where EXPAREL was injected near a nerve, the most common side effects were nausea, fever, and constipation. In the study where EXPAREL was given to children, the most common side effects were nausea, vomiting, constipation, low blood pressure, low number of red blood cells, muscle twitching, blurred vision, itching, and rapid heartbeat. EXPAREL can cause a temporary loss of feeling and/or loss of muscle movement. How much and how long the loss of feeling and/or muscle movement depends on where and how much of EXPAREL was injected and may last for up to 5 days. EXPAREL is not recommended to be used in patients younger than 6 years old for injection into the wound, for patients younger than 18 years old for injection near a nerve, and/or in pregnant women. Tell your health care provider if you or your child has liver disease, since this may affect how the active ingredient (bupivacaine) in EXPAREL is eliminated from the body. EXPAREL should not be injected into the spine, joints, or veins. The active ingredient in EXPAREL can affect the nervous system and the cardiovascular system; may cause an allergic reaction; may cause damage if injected into the joints; and can cause a rare blood disorder.

About ZILRETTA®

On October 6, 2017, ZILRETTA (triamcinolone acetonide extended-release injectable suspension) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as the first and only extended-release intra-articular therapy for patients confronting osteoarthritis (OA)- related knee pain. ZILRETTA employs proprietary microsphere technology combining triamcinolone acetonide—a commonly administered, short-acting corticosteroid—with a poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) matrix to provide extended pain relief. The pivotal Phase 3 trial on which the approval of ZILRETTA was based showed that ZILRETTA significantly reduced OA knee pain for 12 weeks, with some people experiencing pain relief through Week 16. Learn more at www.zilretta.com.





Indication and Select Important Safety Information for ZILRETTA

Indication: ZILRETTA is indicated as an intra-articular injection for the management of OA pain of the knee. Limitation of Use: The efficacy and safety of repeat administration of ZILRETTA have not been demonstrated.

Contraindication: ZILRETTA is contraindicated in patients who are hypersensitive to triamcinolone acetonide, corticosteroids or any components of the product.

Warnings and Precautions:

Intra-articular Use Only: ZILRETTA has not been evaluated and should not be administered by epidural, intrathecal, intravenous, intraocular, intramuscular, intradermal, or subcutaneous routes. ZILRETTA should not be considered safe for epidural or intrathecal administration.
Serious Neurologic Adverse Reactions with Epidural and Intrathecal Administration: Serious neurologic events have been reported following epidural or intrathecal corticosteroid administration. Corticosteroids are not approved for this use.
Hypersensitivity reactions: Serious reactions have been reported with triamcinolone acetonide injection. Institute appropriate care if an anaphylactic reaction occurs.
Joint infection and damage: A marked increase in joint pain, joint swelling, restricted motion, fever and malaise may suggest septic arthritis. If this occurs, conduct appropriate evaluation and if confirmed, institute appropriate antimicrobial treatment.

Adverse Reactions: The most commonly reported adverse reactions (incidence ≥1%) in clinical studies included sinusitis, cough, and contusions.

Please see ZILRETTALabel.com for full Prescribing Information.

About iovera°®

The iovera° system uses the body’s natural response to cold to treat peripheral nerves and immediately reduce pain without the use of drugs. Treated nerves are temporarily stopped from sending pain signals for a period of time, followed by a restoration of function. Treatment with iovera° treatment works by applying targeted cold to a peripheral nerve. A precise cold zone is formed under the skin that is cold enough to immediately prevent the nerve from sending pain signals without causing damage to surrounding structures. The effect on the nerve is temporary, providing pain relief until the nerve regenerates and function is restored. Treatment with iovera° does not include injection of any substance, opioid, or any other drug. The effect is immediate and can last up to 90 days. The iovera° system is not indicated for treatment of central nervous system tissue. Additional information is available at www.iovera.com.

Important Safety Information for iovera°®

The iovera° system is contraindicated for use in patients with the following: Cryoglobulinemia; Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria; cold urticaria; Raynaud’s disease; open and/or infected wounds at



or near the treatment line. Potential complications: As with any surgical treatment that uses needle-based therapy, there is potential for temporary site-specific reactions, including but not limited to: bruising (ecchymosis); swelling (edema); inflammation and/or redness (erythema); pain and/or tenderness; altered sensation (localized dysesthesia). Typically, these reactions resolve with no physician intervention. Patients may help the healing process by applying ice packs to the affected sites, and by taking over-the-counter analgesics.
