Key Terms

specialty plasma-derived products, adjusted EBITDA, immunoglobulin, AAT, +2 more

6 terms

specialty plasma-derived products medical

"supply of four specialty plasma-derived products, WINRHO®, HEPAGAM®..."

Therapeutic medicines made from human blood plasma that treat specific, often rare or chronic, medical conditions such as immune deficiencies and bleeding disorders. They matter to investors because production depends on donor supply and complex, tightly regulated manufacturing, creating steady demand, high barriers to entry and sensitivity to supply disruptions or regulatory changes; think of them like niche, high-value products that require scarce ingredients and careful preparation.

adjusted EBITDA financial

"adjusted EBITDA of $40 Million-$44 Million..."

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

immunoglobulin medical

"our anti-Rabies Immunoglobulin product used in Canada..."

Immunoglobulins are proteins commonly known as antibodies that the body makes to recognize and neutralize viruses, bacteria and other foreign substances; they act like targeted security guards that bind to specific invaders. For investors, immunoglobulins matter because they are the basis for many diagnostic tests, therapeutic drugs and blood‑derived products, so changes in demand, manufacturing capacity, clinical trial results or regulatory approvals can directly affect company revenues and risk profiles.

AAT medical

"GLASSIA®, our AAT product licensed to Takeda for distribution..."

Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) is a liver-produced protein that acts like a protective shield for the lungs, preventing enzymes from damaging airways and tissue. When AAT is low or malformed, people can develop lung disease and liver problems, creating a clear medical need; for investors, AAT is important because therapies or tests that diagnose, replace or correct it can drive regulatory approvals, market demand and company valuation in biopharma.

biosimilar medical

"growing biosimilar portfolio in Israel, and the expansion..."

A biosimilar is a medicine created to be highly similar to an existing complex drug made from living cells, matching its safety and effectiveness while allowing for small, natural variations. For investors, biosimilars matter because they introduce lower-cost competition when patents end, which can cut prices, shift market share, and change revenue forecasts for companies selling the original drugs, much like a generic version does for simpler chemical medicines.

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory

"approved by Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)."

A U.S. government agency that reviews and approves drugs, medical devices, vaccines, food safety measures and related products before they reach the market. Think of it as a gatekeeper whose decisions, inspections and safety warnings can make or break a product’s ability to sell; investors watch FDA actions closely because approvals speed revenue and failed reviews, delays or recalls can sharply change a company’s value.

(NASDAQ: KMDA; TASE: KMDA.TA), a global biopharmaceutical company with a portfolio of marketed products indicated for rare and serious conditions and a leader in the specialty plasma-derived field, today announced that the Company has been awarded an extension of an existing tender from the Canadian Blood Services (CBS) for the supply of four specialty plasma-derived  products, WINRHO®, HEPAGAM®, CYTOGAM®, and VARIZIG®, for an additional two years. Valued at a range of $10-$14 million, the award secures ongoing sales of those products in the Canadian market between Q2-26 and Q1-28. The four commercial products are approved by Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). CBS manages the Canadian supply of blood products for all Canadian provinces and territories, excluding Quebec.

“This award extension, together with continued supply of KAMRAB®, our anti-Rabies Immunoglobulin product used in Canada, and GLASSIA®, our AAT product licensed to Takeda for distribution in Canada, validates our position as the leading supplier of specialty plasma derived products in Canada,” said Amir London, Kamada’s Chief Executive Officer. “We remain confident that significant commercial potential exists for our AAT and specialty immunoglobulin portfolio in the international markets and intend to continue pursuing additional contracts in key strategic territories.”

“As recently stated, based on our strong, consistent performance during 2025, we have reiterated our full-year 2025 revenue guidance of between $178 million to $182 million and our annual adjusted EBITDA guidance of $40 million to $44 million. Additionally, we project double-digit growth in revenues and profitability in 2026 through our robust commercial portfolio, growing biosimilar portfolio in Israel, and the expansion of normal source plasma sales. In parallel, we continue to focus on pursuing new commercial stage business development opportunities, leveraging our strong cash position, to support continued long-term growth,” concluded Mr. London.
