At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. There will be a question and answer session to follow. Please be advised that this call is being recorded at the company's request and will be available on the company's website approximately two hours following the end of the call. At this time, I would like to introduce the company. Please go ahead.

Welcome, everyone, and thank you for joining us this afternoon to discuss Admin Biologics' financial results for the third quarter of 2025 and recent corporate updates. I'm joined today by Adam Grossman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Brad Tade, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. During today's call, Adam will provide some introductory comments and provide an update on corporate progress, and then Brad will provide an overview of the company's third quarter 2025 financial results. Finally, Adam will then provide some brief summary remarks before opening up the call for questions. Earlier today, we issued a press release detailing the third quarter 2025 financial results and summarized certain achievements in recent corporate updates. The release is available on our website at www.admobiologics.com.

With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Adam Grossman. Adam, go ahead.

Good afternoon, everyone. ADMA delivered another record quarter of sequential and year-over-year growth, underscoring the strength of our business model and disciplined execution. We delivered total revenue of $134.2 million, representing a 10% quarter-over-quarter increase and 12% growth year-over-year. GAAP net income reached $36.4 million, up 6% quarter-over-quarter and 1% year-over-year. and adjusted EBITDA grew to $58.7 million, representing 16% quarter-over-quarter growth and a 29% increase year-over-year. These results demonstrate the durability of our growth engine and the expanding leverage in our fully integrated U.S. domicile business model. Our performance continues to be led by Ascentive. Our differentiated and patent-protected specialty IG exclusively targeting complex immunodeficient patients. Ascentive delivered record utilization this quarter, driven by strong prescriber adoption and sustained patient demand. 2026 payer negotiations are progressing positively and are expected to further expand coverage, improving access and accelerating growth. For select payers where restrictions previously existed, we anticipate improved Ascentive reimbursement access beginning next year. Equally important, a retrospective cohort analysis and an investigator-initiated study of primary immunodeficiency patients demonstrated statistically significant reduction in infection rates following transition from standard immune globulin therapy to Ascentis. Patients experienced 2.1 infections per year while receiving prior lines of standard Ig therapy, compared with 0.9 infections per year on Ascentis. representing a reduction of greater than 50% with a p-value considerably inside of 0.05. These findings suggest that Ascendant provides enhanced protection against infections in real-world clinical practice. Data validation and extended analyses are ongoing. ADMA plans to submit these results for peer-reviewed publication in the near term, with additional findings planned to be submitted at the Clinical Immunology Society 2026 Annual Meeting. Operationally, the FDA's lot release of our first yield-enhanced production batches represents a major inflection point. This process innovation is expected to improve per batch output by 20% or more, driving sustained gross margin expansion beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025 and continuing through 2026 and beyond. Regulatory release of these batches was achieved in the ordinary course, positioning us to realize our first full year of yield enhancement production in the entirety of 2026. In addition to strengthening our commercial operating model, we continue to invest in innovation and pipeline advancement. Our SG001 program is progressing as planned, and we recently submitted a CNPV voucher application to the FDA. If approved, this voucher could meaningfully accelerate further regulatory review timelines, giving us a clear advantage as we move into registrational clinical development. SG-001 remains a meaningful long-term opportunity with the potential to address significant unmet medical needs in patients vulnerable to streptococcus pneumonia infection. Preclinical data for SG-001 demonstrated broad serotype-specific antibody activity. encompassing a wider range of pneumococcal serotypes than those targeted by any currently available pneumococcal vaccine, underscoring the potential for Sg001 to provide enhanced protective coverage. We view this program as a natural extension of our core competencies in hyperimmune Ig development and manufacturing, and as a potential key value driver for ADMA's next phase of growth. Although Sg001 is excluded, from our $1.1 billion or more fiscal year 2029 revenue guidance. We believe approval could occur within this timeframe. And if successful, we believe the new product could rapidly scale to peak revenues following potential commercial launch. We believe SG-001 represents a potential $300 to $500 million in annual high margin revenue opportunity with IP protection through at least 2037. Turning to capital deployment, our approach remains disciplined and strategic, focusing on creating stockholder value. Following our successful JPMorgan-led debt refinancing earlier this year, ADMA maintains an undrawn $225 million revolving credit facility, providing flexibility to fund growth and stockholder value initiatives. We continue to repurchase ADMA shares under our authorized program. funded organically to date through free cash flow, and maintain a strong capital position to potentially reinvest in high-return initiatives that enhance stockholder value. Looking forward, our focus remains clear. Expand incentive access and utilization, scale yield-enhanced production and product mix shift, drive continued margin expansion, advance our capital-efficient pipeline, and return capital to stockholders through share repurchases. We believe these priorities will collectively position us to achieve more than $1.1 billion or more in annual revenue in 2029, with a clear line of sight to durable earnings growth. With that, I'll now turn the call over to Brad to review our third quarter financials in more detail. Thank you, Adam. Our third quarter results highlight ADMA's consistent execution and expanding profitability. Total revenue for the quarter was $134.2 million, up 10% from the second quarter and an increase of 12% year over year. Gross margins expanded to approximately 56.3% compared to 49.8% last year. driven by incentives growing mix and early yield enhancement benefits. Excluding the plasma sale of $13.8 million during the quarter, product level gross margins reached 63.7% during the third quarter of 2025. GAAP net income totaled $36.4 million compared to $35.9 million in the prior year period. while adjusted EBITDA increased to $58.7 million, representing 16% growth quarter-over-quarter and 29% year-over-year, reflecting continued operating leverage and cost efficiencies. Year-over-year net income growth was tempered by a higher effective tax rate and temporary competitive dynamics in the standard IVIG markets, mainly impacting Vivigang. Enabled by the company's outperforming third-party plasma suppliers, ADMA opportunistically completed a sale of approximately $13.8 million of normal source plasma on the spot market at a negative margin contribution to optimize working capital and go-forward cash flow. These factors are short-term. Post-quarter, standard IVIG market conditions are stabilizing. and record ascent of demand continues to drive margin expansion. ADMA ended the quarter with a strong balance sheet and liquidity position. Third quarter cash reflected approximately $23 million in share repurchases settled during the period, planned inventory build, and a $12.6 million facility expansion investment. Working capital dynamics are expected to normalize in the coming quarters, supporting accelerated cash growth through 2026. We maintain a strong balance sheet with an undrawn $225 million revolver, providing ample flexibility for growth. Turning to our outlook, ADMA's full year 2025 and 2026 financial outlook reflects continued incentive demand strength yield enhancement production efficiencies, and disciplined operational execution. For 2025, total revenue is now expected to be $510 million, up from prior guidance of more than $500 million. 2025 adjusted net income is modestly adjusted to $158 million due to a higher effective tax rate. Fiscal year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance remains expected to be $235 million. These forecasted annualized 2025 results position the company strongly to end the year on a high note and enter 2026 from a position of strength. For 2026, total revenue is now expected to be at least $630 million. up from $625 million or more previously. Adjusted net income is increased to more than $255 million, up from $245 million previously. And adjusted EBITDA is raised to more than $355 million, up from $340 million or more from previous guidance. The increased 2026 adjusted net income guidance now considers a full corporate tax rate for fiscal year 2026. Looking longer term, ADMA expects fiscal year 2029 total annual revenue to exceed $1.1 billion, supported by yield enhancement efficiencies, expanding incentive demand, and continued gross margin gains. Potential contributions from SG001 and capacity expansion are excluded from this outlook and represent meaningful upside to ADMA's long-term earnings power. Following its JPMorgan-led refinancing, ADMA maintains a strong balance sheet with an undrawn $225 million revolver and forecasted robust cash generation. Share repurchases continue to be funded organically. reflecting disciplined capital allocation and long-term shareholder value focus. With that, I'll turn the call back to Adam for closing remarks. Thank you, Brad. Before we open the call for questions, I wanted to take a step back and reflect on how far we've come and where we're heading. Just three years ago, ADMA was at the early stages of its commercial expansion. Today, we're generating record revenue and profitability. achieving best-in-class gross margins with substantial expansion forecasted from here, and setting the stage for what should be sustained earnings growth across the next decade while advancing a compelling new product cycle. Our yield enhancement milestone is a defining moment in that journey. It not only validates our technical capabilities, but also positions us among the most efficient plasma fractionators in the industry. With FDA-released yield-enhanced production lots now flowing through our supply chain, we believe we are strongly positioned to finish 2025 on a high note and accelerate year-over-year growth rates in 2026 from a position of operational strength. With line of sight expected meaningful cost savings, improved production mix throughput, and the potential to add incremental manufacturing capacity without significant capital investment, provides optimism for our future. On the commercial side, Ascendant continues to outperform expectations and remains at the center of our growth story. We are witnessing both expanding utilization in existing accounts and growing interest from new treatment centers. As payer access improves in 2026, we expect adoption to accelerate further, supporting our expectations of strong double-digit revenue growth well into the back half of the decade. The combination of expanding coverage, real-world data validation, and increased patient acceptance is creating durable, powerful momentum across ADMA's healthcare ecosystem. Looking further ahead, our R&D platform continues to progress. The SG001 program is advancing on schedule, and we remain enthusiastic about its long-term potential. We believe we can advance this pipeline program directly into registrational trials following continued and successful preclinical development and potential ultimate IND submission. When combined with our manufacturing know-how and regulatory expertise, SG001 has the potential to expand ADMA's leading position in the specialty immunoglobulin space while adding meaningful high margin revenue in the out years. Financially, ADMA has never been stronger. We are operating with a clean balance sheet, a fully funded growth plan, and forecasted accelerating cash generation. Our capital allocation priorities are clear. Reinvest for growth, maintain balance sheet flexibility, and return capital to our stockholders through opportunistic share repurchases. This strategy reflects our confidence in the business and our commitment to building enduring value. In closing, I want to thank the entire ADMA team for another exceptional quarter. Your hard work, expertise, and passion make all of this possible. To our investors and stakeholders, thank you for your continued confidence in our company and partnership as we execute against our mission to improve patient lives while creating durable stockholder value. With that, operator, please open up the call for questions.

Thank you. Today's question and answer session will be conducted electronically. If you'd like to ask a question, please press star 1 1 on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star 1 1 again. We'll pause for just a moment to assemble the roster. Our first question comes from Anthony Patron with Mizuho.

Thanks, and good afternoon, everyone. Hope everyone's doing well. Hey, Anthony. Adam, maybe to start with the data, I want to congratulate you and the team there. You know, greater than 50% reduction in infections using Ascenev versus standard IG therapy. You have a plan to publish those data and present next year at Clinical Immunology in April. Maybe a little bit on uh you know some of the constructs of what we should expect in the publication um you know what types of adverse events maybe were avoided with the senate will there be um you know cost benefit analysis in in those in that in that study publication and then i'll have a couple of follow-ups thanks for the question anthony so um

I was very pleased that our compliance group allowed us to talk about this data, so I can't give away too much. But we evaluated a robust patient cohort that was appropriately sized, and we were able to generate statistically significant data. I'm very, very proud of this. The data demonstrates a significant reduction in infections in these patients that are switching off of their standard IG and moving to Ascentive. You know, this is the real-world setting. These are complex PI patients that are switching. And again, we're just very pleased. I mean, 2.1 infections while they were on standard IVIG compared to less than one infection per year with a p-value of less than 0.05. We think that this is really, you know, just a very clear way of demonstrating what clinicians have been reporting to us and what we've been reporting as a company about the clear clinical differentiation that Ascentive provides compared to standard IG and why these complex and refractive and comorbid PI patients seem to do better on Ascentive. We expect that the data is going to reinforce prescriber confidence. It's going to strengthen payer coverage. Our negotiations with payers have progressed very nicely throughout 2025, and we're anticipating expanded access into 2026. So we're continuing to analyze this data. We plan for a peer review publication, as you mentioned, early in 2026. And we expect this and other investigator-initiated studies that are ongoing to further validate incentives utility and really define the patient profile that we're targeting. In 2026, we really plan to ramp up medical education and publications. We plan to provide continued real-world outcomes data, and we think all of this is going to bode well for Ascentive's growth in 2026 and beyond.

That's very helpful. The follow-up here would be, you know, we've picked up from physicians that, you know, with data, and this certainly, you know, with data indication indicating that you can get, you know, advocacy benefits with Ascentive, that perhaps You know, there's a percent of the immunologists out there that would consider using Ascentive sooner to treat some of these complex PI patients. So what do you think this data can do for demand into next year? And how should we be thinking about the growth curve, you know, once this data is digested and, of course, your supply situation has improved? and I'll get back in queue again. Congrats on the study.

No, thank you so much, Anthony. You know, look, we've seen record utilization of incentive throughout the third quarter, and that has continued to be observed as we enter the fourth and are in the middle of the fourth quarter. You know, this data is really just reinforcing everything that we've experienced Payer negotiations, I mean, look, we still stand firm on our position that incentive should not be used as a first-line therapy. We think that your question about, you know, could this, in the minds of prescribers, be used earlier in the treatment cycle? Possibly. We do see some private payers moving incentive up where you don't have to fail as many step edits There could be less. So we think that a payer expansion is going to improve. And again, the more data that we can put and publish in the public domain, the better it's going to be to reinforce and maintain a strong position. We do expect strong double digit growth. We do think that the data that we're putting out there, the patient testimonials, our medical education strategy and our enhanced publication strategy for next year is all going to work together to continue to drive utilization. Regarding the growth curve, I mean, look, we've increased guidance for 2026, top line and earnings metrics. Very proud of where we are with yield enhancement with our first FDA-released commercial batches of yield-enhanced product now flowing through the supply chain. So, you know, we think that you're going to see continued accelerating utilization of Ascendant, continued growth of our IG portfolio throughout 2026 and beyond.

Thank you. I'll get back in.

Thanks, Anthony.

Our next question comes from Kristen Kluska with Cantor Fitzgerald.

Hey, everyone. This is Rick Miller on for Kristen. Thanks for taking our questions. We've got two here for you. You've been saying back half of this year you're expecting acceleration and then into next year. So is there any additional color you can give us on what you were seeing that sort of gave you the confidence around raising the revenue guidance? And then we'll have one more for you after that.

I mean, the confidence is that we see it in the redistribution data. The product pulled through at record levels, exceeding internal expectations throughout the third quarter. Fourth quarter is no different. We feel very confident in incentives utility. I think the data that I was just speaking about, this is what physicians and patients are experiencing in the real world setting. So we're making a good drug. We're making more of it than we ever had before. We had more product available in the third quarter than we than we have had historically, and we see it continuing to pull through at a rapid pace. So very encouraging. I mean, look, again, Rick, we've talked about, and I don't like to sound like a broken record, but the patients who are switching to Ascentive are patients that are not thriving on their standard IG, and they're looking for alternatives. One thing I can say is that in the late summer we started our first direct to patient medical education programs, and we think that those are starting to have a meaningful impact as well. The key is if you're an immune compromised patient receiving IG and you just don't feel well, have a conversation with your doctor, talk to your nurse practitioners, advocate for yourself, you're your best advocate. and see if Ascentive is a right product for you to switch to. So all these factors combined are what's contributing. Our field team is working in unison. We've had some great hires throughout 2025, and we continue to just knock down doors and uncover new institutions that are starting their first patients. And it's everything that we've really described is that, you know, now starting to add patients that they've identified in their queue, if you will. We've got more product available, and that's been the message throughout the third quarter, that, look, we've got more product for you. You can start putting patients on therapy. And we see it in our supply chain that we've got the ability to ensure the continuity of care for these patients. So we're starting them, they're staying on therapy, and they're doing well. That's what contributes to this growth. And that's why in our fifth plus year or so from launch, we're forecasting, you know, very robust acceleration as we wind down 2025 and enter 2026. I mean, yeah, exactly. Adam, just to expand on that, I mean, we're talking about the guidance that we just raised for 2026, and that represents 24% year-over-year growth on revenue. It represents 51% year-over-year growth on adjusted EBITDA and 61% year-over-year growth on adjusted net income. So exactly what Adam was saying is those are the things that are providing us confidence to raise that guidance, and we are feeling pretty good and strong about 2026.

Okay, and then maybe one more. After the FDA lot release for the yield-enhanced product, are there any other gating factors here before we start to see the impact on 4Q?

No. We're going to see this flow through the majority of product sales in the fourth quarter we think will be from yield-enhanced product. Ascentive certainly, most of Vivigan we think will be from yield-enhanced. But I'm very excited about this. Again, it was something that was an unknown that we said probably will go off in a normal course, which it did. And we're very pleased. Dialogue with the agency has been good, and it's business as usual. So very excited for what the fourth quarter should bring in 2026.

All right. Thank you. That's it from us.

Thanks, Rick.

Our next question comes from Gary Nachman with Raymond James.

How are you doing, Gary?

Hey, guys. Yep. No, thanks and congrats on the progress. Thank you. So just following up on that last point, you know, with the FDA releasing the first lots of the yield-enhanced batches, just give us a sense of how long that process takes and will it now be a lot easier going forward for new batches, just how that all works. And then just also give us a sense of how much gross margin is will expand in 4Q and into next year, you know, what that cadence will look like, I guess, off the 63.7% in 3Q that was normalized?

Sure. So, FDA lot release, as we've said, can be as short as call it two to three weeks to as long as, you know, call it six to eight weeks. There is no, there was nothing different that occurred with the yield-enhanced batches, Gary. It was just We just wanted to make sure that everything went through in the normal course, which it did. So we're receiving FDA lot releases routinely, no issues there, and we continue to have ample inventory and supply available of our IG product portfolio to meet the demands for the market. With respect to gross margins, I mean, we reported We reported this quarter that if you back out the plasma revenue, Brad, keep me honest here, product level gross margins were 63.7%. So we're feeling very good about product level gross margins. And, you know, we feel that it should continue to expand as we continue with incentive mix shift from revenue and a unit perspective. Our goal is, again, to get to, you know, using half the plant's capacity at least to make incentive, if not more. And that's what's going to drive us to our out-year guidance for 2029 now. That is $1.1 billion or more in revenue. So we're feeling very positive about it. Everything's going very well from a lot release perspective. And the visibility with our third-party supply contracts is what's giving us this encouragement to get more patients on drug. We're making more incentive. We're producing more batches than we originally planned for 2025. And that's going to ultimately give us more product to sell in 2026. And Gary, just to expand on that, on the gross margin piece, I mean, as we get into 2026, you know, we've always been saying that we're going to see margin expansion. And at 63.7% less the plasma sale. We're at the beginning, I believe we're at the beginning of that, right? We're at the beginning of that margin expansion journey. The operations teams constantly looking for cost savings initiatives and they're getting after it and they're getting after it hard. And as we continue to see this, mid-shift between Bibigam and Ascentive, and we continue to see the yield enhancement lots roll out. You know, if everything goes in our direction in 2026, we'll be, you know, potentially hitting the, you know, plus 70% gross margin line, and that's going to be very nice from a, you know, drop through to net income and adjusted EBITDA.

Okay, thanks. That's helpful. And then, you know, with the payer discussions that you're having to improve access next year, Just talk a little bit more on that because you previously said that, you know, that was in pretty good shape. So just want to get a sense that you have to give up any discounts or rebates to get more favorable access. And then how much of the HEO or data is actually a factor there? We're obviously very excited to see that data as well. So I'm curious if you started having discussions yet with the payers or that's still to come in terms of that new data.

So we are always in active discussions with a number of different commercial payers, Gary. You couldn't see me smiling when you were asking your question, but I was smiling. I mean, the payers certainly like their rebates. We're in active negotiations of around this. We don't think that anything is going to be so significant that it's going to change our gross margin outlook or our product level margins significantly, but we all understand how it works. So the negotiations with the payers are actually been pretty positive over the last couple of months as we ended the third quarter and enter the fourth quarter. My field reimbursement and market access team is seeing some, I don't know if you can ever use the word acceleration in approvals with commercial payers, but appropriately defined use case patients are getting approvals. Some payers are working more rapidly with us than others, and we're trying to alleviate the bottlenecks across the entire commercial payer landscape. Again, the majority of incentive, especially BIVIGAM as well, is through Medicare, where it's a lot easier to get reimbursement more rapidly. But from a commercial payer perspective, which is about, call it 40-ish, 45% of utilization, we're seeing movement from some payers who had us restricted. We're coming off restricted lists. We're moving up. from a step edit perspective. And I think, you know, as these negotiations transpire, if there's things to report, we'll certainly keep the street informed. But data, obviously, the more data helps. You asked about the outcomes data. You know, the payers are seeing this in their own patient profiles. I mean, they're seeing that these are patients that have cost their plans money. These are patients that do get hospitalized. maybe once or twice per year, and they're staying out of the hospital. They're not getting as sick. We're reporting today that in this investigator-initiated study, we're seeing a significant reduction in infections. This is not a one-off. This is what payers are seeing. And all of this contributes into their decision to approve Ascentive and approve a switch from Standard IG to this product. So everything seems to be working well. Again, our field reimbursement team is doing a great job, and our market access team is negotiating in a very collegial way with a number of different payers right now. And we wouldn't have put it in the prepared remarks or in the press release if we didn't feel confident that we were going to see improvements to our commercial payer profile. So we expect that to occur early in 2026, and we're very optimistic for the growth for the future.

Okay, that's all very helpful. Thank you. And then just last one, just to follow up on the earlier question about also using that data to expand the number of physicians or centers that are going to be using Ascentive. So just want to confirm, are you still currently around 100 or so, whether it's physicians or centers that are using Ascentive. And to get to your peak target for 2029 of greater than 1.1 billion, where does that need to go? Does it need to double? You've talked about a 300 sort of target, I guess, ultimately. How long do you think it'll take before you get there? Thanks.

All good questions. Thank you, Gary. We do say that there are about 300 clinical immunologists that follow large groups of these primary immune deficient patients. You know, it's certainly greater than 100 prescribing docs now. I mean, we've really seen rapid uptake throughout the summer of new docs saying, you know what, I'm ready. And the fact that, you know, our commercial team since the start of the third quarter has been out there saying that, We've got more product. You can start your patients on therapy. I mean, people took us seriously. So, you know, that certainly helps, Gary, when, you know, you're dealing with a scarce raw material like we are with Ascentive. Less than 5% of these plasma donors have the antibody profile that we're looking for. But, you know, the clinician universe that we target, they're well aware of our partnerships with Griffles, Kedrion, and others. to access a wider group of collection centers to get more plasma. So, you know, folks have been listening to our messaging. They know that Griffles, Kedriana, and others are reliable suppliers, and I think we've really been able to do a great job at building the confidence for the continuity of supply throughout 2025. And that's what's been encouraging for new docs to put patients on and existing prescribers to add more patients in their queue. You know, look, we increased 2025 revenue, I believe, right from 500 to 510. We feel confident about this. We feel good that our ability to supply product to the healthcare community is solid. And that's really what's helping to drive this is the confidence of our commercial team telling the prescribers that, look, we've got the product available. They're accelerating the accession of these patients, getting them on therapy, starting the payer conversations earlier. Our field reimbursement team has grown this year, and it'll probably grow a little bit next year, but they're all working very, very hard to expedite new patient starts. And that's what's ultimately going to drive growth. You're asking me about the full year 2029 revenue. I mean, I feel good that we're in a good position, Gary, both from who the physicians are and where the patients are to hit 1.1 billion. We feel good about our ability to collect the raw material. I mean, you've seen inventory step up. We're swapping out normal source plasma, replacing it with high-titer plasma inventory to make more incentive. We're elbows deep in the budget for 2026, and we're forecasting more incentive production than we had in 2025, and that's ultimately going to drive increasing revenues in 2026 and 2027. So is there an opportunity to achieve the $1.1 billion earlier than 2029? I think it's possible, but at this point in time, we feel confident that we should hit this in 2029. And, you know, in normal admin fashion, if we can do it faster, we certainly will.

Okay, great. Thank you for all that color. Appreciate it. Thank you, Gary.

We have a question from Anthony Patron with Missoula.

Thanks. Following up on the experience you're seeing with the new centers from earlier this year, you mentioned a 5% hit rate on collections at those new centers. I'm just wondering, as time goes on and perhaps with your partnerships either with Griffles or Kendrion, you train those you know, those sites to, you know, sort of have more proactive donor outreach? Do you think that the donor, the 5% RSV hit rate in those additional centers can improve over time? Thanks.

So the hit rate will always be the hit rate, but the amount of plasma that our third-party suppliers will collect of high titer I think will grow, Anthony. Look, the third-party suppliers have meaningfully outperformed, full stop. The team at ADMA that does our proprietary RSV screening assay and testing, they've got it under control. They've ramped up. I mean, we invested time, money, effort, blood, sweat, tears to get to this point. And we feel really, really good about the supply chain continuity and the ability to rapidly identify these donors and collect that plasma from our third-party providers. As I mentioned, and I think folks can see in the contracts, I know that there are some terms that are redacted, but there are financial incentives for our third-party suppliers to hit our target collection goals. They all want their bonuses, and by golly, we want to pay their bonuses. So I think it's a very symbiotic relationship. I think it's going very, very well, and again, I cannot emphasize enough about how good the team has done here at ADMA, but our third-party suppliers have meaningfully outperformed. 2026 conversations with our third-party suppliers are going well. We feel like we're in a great position to collect more plasma than we did this year for next year, and that's ultimately going to give us confidence into 27, 28, and 29. So things are going very, very well from a plasma supply standpoint. We're building inventory. We've got the inventory we need to be successful. And we feel like we're in a great position to at least meet, if not exceed, the upwardly revised guidance targets that we've set for 2026.

Ladies and gentlemen, this will conclude our question and answer portion of the call. I'd like to turn it back over to Adam now for additional closing remarks.

Thank you, everybody, for taking the time this afternoon. We really appreciate your continued support of ADMA Biologics. And if you have an ADMA Bio Center or one of our third-party centers near you, please go donate plasma, save a life. And to the ADMA team that's listening, thank you for all you do. Let's crush it until the end of the year. Thanks, everybody. Have a good afternoon.

Ladies and gentlemen, this does conclude the conference call for today. We appreciate your participation and you may now disconnect.
