## Cross-quarter narrative

Across eight earnings calls, NexGel evolved from a modest $1.44 M Q2‑2024 revenue base to a pro‑forma $35 M run‑rate after the BioNX acquisition. Early quarters emphasized integration of the Silly George acquisition, Texas facility expansion and contract manufacturing deals with Cintas and AbbVie, delivering record revenue growth and expanding gross margins to the mid‑40% range. Margin pressure returned in Q4‑2024 when Amazon commission re‑classification lowered gross margin, but subsequent quarters restored margin strength as high‑margin consumer products (Silly George, Kenkoderm) scaled and contract manufacturing utilization improved. Capital strategy shifted from small insider financings to a $13.8 M raise and a convertible‑note‑backed acquisition, supporting inventory, marketing and the $5.5 M strategic investment from Sequence LifeScience. Demand visibility sharpened with recurring Cintas re‑orders, iRhythm partnership and a pipeline of 510(k) devices, while consumer demand remained seasonal. The cash‑runway concern raised in Q4‑2024 did not reappear, suggesting resolution. The transformative Celularity wound‑care acquisition introduced the BioNX Surgical division, creating new margin buckets and positioning NexGel for sustained profitability and broader hospital penetration.

Contract manufacturing and MEDAGEL growth continuing. Three 510(k) devices targeted for 2026-2028 commercialization but clearance timing hard to pinpoint.

### Margins / costs

SG&A increased due to BioNX acquisition costs and settled legal case; normalized monthly operating run rate ~$500k all-in for salaries, marketing, commissions; pro forma immediately accretive.

Q1 SG&A elevated from BioNX acquisition costs and Kiss Nail Products legal case (now settled). New CFO Ian Blackman states approximate monthly run rate of $500,000 all-in for salaries, marketing and commissions for the expanded organization. Management claims pro forma immediate accretivity to profitability upon closing.
