Insights

Large biosimilars acquisition plus strong Q1 and higher 2026 guidance signal a more growth‑oriented profile for Amneal.

Amneal is buying Kashiv BioSciences for $375 million in cash, 28,942,108 shares and up to $350 million in regulatory milestones, plus a 25% royalty on certain future gross profits. This adds end‑to‑end biosimilars R&D and manufacturing capabilities ahead of a projected $300 billion global biologics loss‑of‑exclusivity wave.

Q1 2026 preliminary net revenue rose to $723 million from $695 million, while adjusted EBITDA increased to $202 million and adjusted diluted EPS to $0.27. Gross margin expanded to 44.3%, aided by mix shift toward higher‑margin products.

The company lifted 2026 standalone adjusted EBITDA guidance to $740–$770 million and operating cash flow to $350–$400 million, while net leverage stood at about 3.5x adjusted EBITDA over the last twelve months. Actual outcomes will depend on regulatory approvals, shareholder votes and execution on both integration and the biosimilars pipeline.

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement regulatory
"entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Kashiv BioSciences, LLC"
A membership interest purchase agreement is a contract used when someone buys an ownership stake in a limited liability company (LLC). It spells out what is being sold, the price, any promises about the business’s condition, and who takes responsibility for debts or legal issues—like a receipt and rulebook for the sale. Investors care because it transfers control, affects future cash flow and liabilities, and can change the value and tax treatment of their investment.
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 regulatory
"the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended"
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA (1) | | $202 | | $170 | | 19%"
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.
Adjusted diluted EPS financial
"Adjusted diluted EPS (1) | | $0.27 | | $0.21 | | 29%"
Adjusted diluted EPS is a company’s profit per share after adding back or removing one-time items (like restructuring costs or gains) and dividing by the number of shares including potential shares from options and convertible securities. Investors use it as a cleaner view of ongoing earnings—like looking at a car’s regular fuel efficiency rather than a trip boosted by downhill coasting—to judge underlying performance and compare companies without temporary distortions.
tax receivable agreement liability financial
"(Decrease) increase in tax receivable agreement liability | | | (2,333 | )"
A tax receivable agreement liability is the recorded future obligation a company expects to pay under an agreement that shares tax savings generated after a corporate transaction. Think of it like promising to split a refund with a former owner: the company recognizes a future bill on its books that reduces cash available to shareholders and can affect valuation and debt capacity. Investors watch it because it represents a real, sometimes sizable, cash outflow tied to tax benefits realized over time.
biosimilars technical
"a fully integrated global biosimilars platform at a pivotal moment"
Biosimilars are medicines made to be highly similar to an already approved biological drug produced from living cells, with no meaningful differences in safety or effectiveness. They matter to investors because they introduce lower‑cost competition to expensive biologic treatments—similar to how generic drugs compete with brand drugs—but involve more complex manufacturing, regulatory review and patent risk, which can affect market share, pricing and profit margins across the sector.
Net revenue $723 million +4% YoY
Net income $78 million +217% YoY
Adjusted EBITDA $202 million +19% YoY
Adjusted diluted EPS $0.27 +29% YoY
Gross margin 44.3% +750 bps YoY
Guidance

For 2026, Amneal reaffirmed net revenue guidance of $3.05–$3.15 billion and raised adjusted EBITDA to $740–$770 million, adjusted diluted EPS to $0.95–$1.05, and operating cash flow to $350–$400 million, with operating cash flow excluding discrete items at $375–$425 million.

Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement

On April 21, 2026, Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Amneal”), entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Kashiv BioSciences, LLC (“Kashiv”), KB Seller Representative, LLC (the “Seller Representative”) and the equityholders of Kashiv named therein (the “Sellers”), pursuant to which, among other matters and on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to acquire from the Sellers 100% of the outstanding membership interests of Kashiv (the “Acquisition”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, at the closing of the Acquisition (the “Closing”), the Company will (i) pay to the Sellers $375,000,000 in cash and (ii) issue to the Sellers 28,942,108 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Stock Consideration”) subject, in the case of clause (i), to certain purchase price adjustments including for cash, the funding of operations between signing and closing (subject to a specified cap, calculated on the basis of the period from the date of the Purchase Agreement until the Closing), indebtedness, transaction expenses and working capital fluctuations (relative to a target). The Sellers will also be eligible to receive up to an additional $350,000,000 in potential contingent payments from the Company upon the achievement of certain regulatory milestones in the United States for up to six designated Kashiv product candidates. In addition, during the 12-year period following the Closing, the Sellers will be eligible to receive certain potential contingent royalty payments from the Company equal to 25% of the amount by which annual aggregate gross profits for certain products exceed specified gross profit hurdle amounts for the corresponding annual royalty period.

Certain of the Sellers are affiliates of the Amneal Group (as defined in Amneal’s proxy statement for its 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on March 25, 2026). Amneal’s independent Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, composed of five independent directors (the “Independent Committee”), was charged with and directed the negotiation of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and, prior to the Company’s entry into the Purchase Agreement, the Independent Committee unanimously determined that the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are advisable and fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and the Company’s stockholders (including the Buyer Disinterested Stockholders (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) and resolved to recommend that the Company’s stockholders adopt and approve the stock issuance and the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

The Acquisition is not subject to any financing condition and is expected to be consummated in the second half of 2026, subject to, among other things, the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including (i) the absence of any law or order that restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the Acquisition, (ii) the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (iii) the receipt of certain other required regulatory approvals, (iv) the approval of (A) the issuance of the Stock Consideration by the Company by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast by the holders of Company common stock and (B) the approval of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast by the Buyer Disinterested Stockholders, and (v) the accuracy of each party’s representations and warranties (subject to certain materiality qualifiers) and each party’s material compliance with its covenants.

The Purchase Agreement contains certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Sellers, the Company and Kashiv, including covenants by the Company and Kashiv to use commercially reasonable efforts to take actions necessary to obtain required regulatory approvals, provided that the parties are not required to commit to or effect the sale, license or other disposition of assets or businesses, modify existing business relationships, take actions that limit any freedom of action with respect to businesses, product lines or assets or agree to other structural or behavioral remedies. During the period from the date of the Purchase Agreement to the Closing, Kashiv has agreed, as to itself and its subsidiaries, to, subject to certain exceptions, conduct its business in the ordinary course of business and not take certain specified actions without the Company’s written consent.

Subject to certain limitations, each of the Company and the Seller Representative may terminate the Purchase Agreement if the Acquisition is not consummated by November 17, 2026 (the “Outside Date”), provided, however, that if on such date, certain required regulatory approvals have not been obtained but all other conditions to Closing (other than conditions which by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived, the Outside Date will be automatically extended to January 12, 2027.

 


The foregoing description of the Acquisition and the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1. The Purchase Agreement has been incorporated herein by reference to provide information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement and is not intended to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about the Company or Kashiv in any public reports filed with the SEC by the Company. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for the purposes of the Purchase Agreement, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by each of Kashiv and the Company in connection with the signing of the Purchase Agreement. These disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Moreover, the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the Company and Kashiv, rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement may not constitute the actual state of facts about the Company or Kashiv. The representations and warranties set forth in the Purchase Agreement may also be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to investors under federal securities laws or otherwise. Therefore, the Purchase Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the parties or their respective businesses.

First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, substantially concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, the Company has agreed to enter into a First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement Amendment”) with Vikram Patel, in his capacity as the Amneal Group Representative (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, dated November 7, 2023, by and among the Company, Amneal Intermediate Inc., Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC, and the other parties named therein) (the “Stockholders Agreement”)) and the other parties that will be named therein, pursuant to which the Company and the Amneal Group Representative will agree, among other things, to amend the definition of “Amneal Group” and “Amneal Group Member” (in each case, as defined in the Stockholders Agreement).

The foregoing description of the Stockholders Agreement Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the Stockholders Agreement Amendment, which is included as Exhibit B to the Purchase Agreement that is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1.

Restrictive Covenants Agreements

On April 21, 2026, in connection with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into Restrictive Covenants Agreements (each a “Restrictive Covenants Agreement” and collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants Agreements”) with each of Chirag Patel and Chintu Patel (each, an “RCA Person”), pursuant to which each RCA Person agreed, among other things, during the period from the Closing until the fifth anniversary thereof, not to, subject to certain exceptions, without the prior written consent of the Company, (a) invest in, acquire, own, manage, control, undertake, participate in, carry on or be engaged in the operation of any business that is competitive with the business of Kashiv or (b) solicit, recruit or hire, or attempt to recruit or hire, certain employees of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The foregoing description of the Restrictive Covenants Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each of the Restrictive Covenants Agreements, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.3 and are incorporated herein by reference.

Amneal Agrees to Acquire Kashiv BioSciences to Create Global Biosimilar Leader;

Reports Strong Preliminary First Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Raises FY2026 Standalone Guidance

– Acquisition Positions Amneal to Capitalize on $300B+ Global Biologics LOE Opportunity –

– Transaction Accelerates Growth Profile and Diversification –

– Preliminary Q1 Results Reflect Continued Growth and Raising 2026 Full Year Guidance –

– Company to Host Investor Conference Call Today at 8:30 a.m. EST –

BRIDGEWATER, N.J., April 22, 2026 - Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMRX) (“Amneal” or the “Company”), a diversified, global biopharmaceutical leader focused on expanding access to affordable and innovative medicines, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of Kashiv BioSciences, LLC (“Kashiv”) in a transaction with consideration that includes $375 million of cash and $375 million of equity payable at closing, plus up to $350 million in potential payments based on the achievement of certain regulatory milestones, potential royalties based on commercial milestones, and funding of operations through closing.

Kashiv is among a select group of U.S.-based companies with proven end-to-end biosimilars capabilities across development and manufacturing, and a robust pipeline. This transaction will establish a scaled, fully integrated global biosimilars platform at a pivotal moment, ahead of a more than $300 billion projected global biologics loss-of-exclusivity wave over the next decade, accelerating growth and meaningfully extending and diversifying Amneal’s long-term growth profile.

“As biosimilar adoption accelerates and the industry enters an unprecedented period of biologic loss of exclusivity, we see a compelling opportunity to establish leadership and scale in a rapidly expanding market,” said Chirag Patel, Co-Founder and Co-Chief Executive Officer of Amneal. “With Kashiv, Amneal becomes a fully integrated global biosimilars leader at the forefront of the next wave of U.S. affordable medicines. This acquisition is a natural next step in our strategy to build a leading, diversified biopharmaceutical company, and we are confident it will drive accelerated growth and long-term value creation.”

“This acquisition establishes Amneal as a fully integrated global biosimilar platform at scale,” said Chintu Patel, Co-Founder and Co-Chief Executive Officer of Amneal. “By combining Kashiv’s deep R&D and manufacturing capabilities with our commercial strength, we are creating a differentiated platform well-positioned to deliver a strong and consistent cadence of biosimilar launches going forward. Together, we will expand access to high-quality, affordable biologic medicines for patients while driving long-term growth.”

“We are thrilled to combine Kashiv’s highly complementary portfolio and capabilities with Amneal at this critical inflection point for the biosimilar market, particularly in the U.S.,” said Dr. Sandeep Athalye, Chief Executive Officer at Kashiv. “Our companies share a deep-rooted commitment to high-quality, complex medicines, and this transaction builds on the meaningful work we have accomplished through our collaboration of more than ten years. We look forward to building on our proven track record of product approvals and advancing our biosimilars pipeline as we work together to expand patient access to life-changing therapies.”

The transaction is subject to approval by Amneal shareholders, receipt of regulatory approvals and satisfaction of customary closing conditions, and is expected to close in the second half of 2026.

Highly strategic and complementary transaction at a pivotal moment of market inflection. More than $300 billion of global biologics are expected to lose exclusivity over the next decade. As biosimilars expand access to biologics and deliver meaningful savings, adoption is accelerating across physicians, patients and payers. Kashiv’s R&D and manufacturing capabilities complement Amneal’s commercial scale, creating an integrated leader well positioned to lead in the next wave of affordable medicines.

 

   

Establishes an integrated biosimilar platform enabling multiple new biosimilars launches each year. The combination enhances speed to market, enables parallel development and commercialization, and enhances Amneal’s competitiveness. By 2030, Amneal expects to have more than 12 commercial biosimilars and over 20 more products in the pipeline.

 

   

Diversifies and extends Amneal’s strong, durable growth profile into the 2030s. The transaction expands biosimilars long-term growth within Affordable Medicines, alongside Specialty and AvKARE.

 

   

Transaction is highly synergistic, with $400M to $500M in expected financial benefits. The transaction reflects a balanced mix of upfront cash and equity, as well as potential success-based consideration over time. There is a minimal impact to the leverage profile and a clear path to deleveraging to below 3x net leverage by 2028. The transaction is expected to provide substantial financial synergies through the elimination of upcoming milestone and royalty obligations through 2030 and unlocks incremental tax and structural benefits over time.

Amneal Reports Preliminary First Quarter 2026 Results and Raises 2026 Full Year Guidance

In connection with announcing the transaction, Amneal is reporting certain unaudited preliminary financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 and raising 2026 full year standalone guidance, reflecting very strong performance and continuing momentum.

“Amneal delivered a very strong start to 2026, reflecting the strength of our diversified business and multiple growth drivers across the portfolio. Our Specialty business continues to perform exceptionally well, led by CREXONT® and the recent launch of BREKIYA® autoinjector, alongside a strong cadence of key launches in Affordable Medicines. We are entering the Kashiv transaction from a position of strength, at a time when we see an extended period of accelerated growth ahead with no shortage of opportunities across our core businesses. Combined with our very strong first quarter results, we are pleased to increase our full year 2026 guidance,” said Chirag and Chintu Patel, Co-Founders and Co-Chief Executive Officers of Amneal.

AvKARE net revenue of $166 million declined 4% as growth in the government channel was offset by decline in the low margin distribution channel.

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company cannot provide a reconciliation between non-GAAP projections and the most directly comparable measures in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable efforts because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items required for the reconciliation. The items include, but are not limited to, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring expenses and benefits, asset impairments, legal settlements, and other gains and losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted gross margin, net debt, gross leverage and net leverage, which are intended as supplemental measures of the Company’s performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations and to better understand its business because they facilitate a comparative assessment of the Company’s operating performance relative to its performance based on results calculated under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures also isolate the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance and eliminate certain charges that management believes do not reflect the Company’s operations and underlying operational performance. The compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors also uses certain of these measures to evaluate management’s performance and set its compensation. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures also provide useful information to investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and operating results facilitates an evaluation of the financial performance of the Company and its operations on a consistent basis. Providing this information therefore allows investors to make independent assessments of the Company’s financial performance, results of operations, cash flows, net leverage and trends while viewing the information through the eyes of management.

These non-GAAP measures are subject to limitations. The non-GAAP measures presented in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies because other companies may not calculate one or more in the same manner. Additionally, the non-GAAP performance measures exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements; do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and do not reflect interest expense, or the requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt. Further, our historical adjusted results are not intended to project our adjusted results of operations or financial position for any future period. To compensate for these limitations, management presents and considers these non-GAAP measures in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP results; no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation from or as alternatives to any measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Readers should review the reconciliations included below, and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

A reconciliation of each historical non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is set forth below.

Explanations for Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

 

(1) 

For all 2025 periods presented, acquisition, site closure, and idle facility expenses primarily included costs related to a planned facility closure and rent for vacated properties. Acquisition, site closure, and idle facility expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (preliminary) primarily included acquisition costs associated with the announced acquisition of Kashiv BioSciences, LLC and rent for vacated properties.

 

(2) 

For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2025, loss on refinancing was primarily comprised of debt issuance costs associated with the portion of the Term Loan Due 2028 that was modified as part of the Company’s debt refinancing on August 1, 2025.

 

(3) 

For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2025, asset impairment charges were primarily related to a Specialty segment product right for which the Company significantly reduced the cash flow forecast after receipt of a complete response letter dated July 22, 2025 from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration regarding a supplemental new drug application.

 

(4) 

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, the caption “other” primarily reflects a non-recurring, non-operating, non-cash gain.
