• Evofem Delivers Third Consecutive Year of Phexxi Net Sales Growth 
• Total Operating Expense Reduced More Than 60% from 2022 Levels 

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Evofem Biosciences, Inc. (OTCQB: EVFM) today announced strong preliminary, unaudited results for fiscal 2023, including record net sales of Phexxi^® (lactic acid, citric acid, and potassium bitartrate), its hormone-free contraceptive gel, and the Company's lowest total operating expenses since becoming a commercial stage company in 2020.

• Achieved preliminary net product sales in the range of $18.1 to $18.3 million in 2023, an impressive increase compared to 2022 given the 73% reduction in field force and absence of growth capital in 2023.
• Company reached a key milestone with net product sales higher than sales and marketing expense for 2023.
• Reduced total operating expense by more than 60% from 2022 levels.
• Improved loss from operations by more than 75% versus 2022 levels.

"Strong consumer demand for Phexxi and the expansion of coverage and reimbursement enabled us to achieve our third consecutive year of revenue growth," said Saundra Pelletier, CEO of Evofem Biosciences. "We delivered more than $18 million in net sales for 2023 despite ongoing austerity measures that whittled our sales force down to just 16 and permitted no investment in growing the brand. Our growth testifies to the strength and persistence of Evofem's current team as well as the loyal users and prescribers of Phexxi nationwide."

In December 2023, Evofem, a commercial stage women's health innovator, entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Aditxt, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADTX), which Evofem believes is a compelling opportunity to accelerate its growth trajectory, as a subsidiary of Aditxt, into a multi-product women's health franchise. The companies are working toward a mid-2024 close.

Evofem expects to report full results for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2023, in mid-March 2024.
