“While 2020 presented extraordinary challenges, I thank our team for continuing to manufacture and deliver products to our customers throughout the year,” said Mary Anne Heino, President and CEO. “Our fourth quarter revenue growth was 5.4% over the prior year period and also represented steady improvement over the prior two quarters of 2020. During 2020, we advanced our strategic mandate by closing the Progenics acquisition in June and receiving FDA approval for DEFINITY RT in November as well as FDA acceptance and Priority Review designation for our PyL NDA in December. In 2021, we will continue to drive sustainable growth, expand product offerings to our customers, improve the lives of the patients we serve, and create value for our shareholders.”
Outlook
The Company guidance for the first quarter and full year 2021 is as follows:
Page 1 of 9
Guidance Issued February 25, 2021
Q1 FY 2021 Revenue
$85 million - $89 million
Q1 FY 2021 Adjusted Fully Diluted EPS
$(0.03) - $0.00
Guidance Issued February 25, 2021
FY 2021 Revenue
$385 million - $400 million
FY 2021 Adjusted Fully Diluted EPS
$0.34 - $0.39
On a forward-looking basis, the Company does not provide GAAP income per common share guidance or a reconciliation of adjusted fully diluted EPS to GAAP income per common share because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty business development and acquisition-related expenses, purchase accounting fair value adjustments, and any one-time, non-recurring charges. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to results computed in accordance with GAAP. As a result, it is the Company’s view that a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted fully diluted EPS on a forward-looking basis is not available without unreasonable effort.
Internet Posting of Information
The Company routinely posts information that may be important to investors in the “Investors” section of its website at www.lantheus.com. The Company encourages investors and potential investors to consult its website regularly for important information about the Company.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted net income and its line components; adjusted net income per share - fully diluted; and free cash flow. The Company’s management believes that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors. These measures may assist investors in evaluating the Company’s operations, period over period. However, these measures may exclude items that may be highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that could have a substantial impact on the Company’s reported results of operations for a particular period. Management uses these and other non-GAAP measures internally for evaluation of the performance of the business, including the allocation of resources and the evaluation of results relative to employee performance compensation targets. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

This press release includes forward-looking non-GAAP guidance for 2021 adjusted fully diluted EPS. No reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP guidance is included in this press release because, due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the information that would be required to prepare such a reconciliation and the fact that some of the excluded information is not readily ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts.
