Current report
During the fourth quarter of 2024, we changed the name of our Generics segment to “Affordable Medicines” to reflect the full product offering of the segment. The segment name change did not result in any change to the composition of our reportable segments and, therefore, did not result in any changes to our historical segment results.
Current report
Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 16.7% from the prior year primarily due to:
Current report
•Growth in our Specialty segment of $55.3 million primarily driven by a $44.7 million increase in our promoted Parkinson’s franchise, of which $16.6 million was comprised of sales of ONGENTYS®, which launched in January 2024, and initial sales of CREXONT®, which launched in September 2024. Additionally, growth in our promoted endocrinology portfolio of $20.8 million was partially offset by declines in our non-promoted products.
Current report
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 10.9% as compared to the prior year primarily due to increases in employee compensation, promotion associated with ONGENTYS® and CREXONT®, increased expenses associated with our growing biosimilars, and annual fees assessed on branded prescription drug manufacturers, which are also applicable to certain of our Affordable Medicines products.
Current report
For the year ended December 31, 2024, charges related to legal matters, net of $96.7 million were primarily associated with an Affordable Medicines settlement in principle on the primary financial terms for a nationwide resolution to the opioids cases that have been filed and that might have been filed against us by political subdivisions and Native American tribes across the U.S.

Current report
Affordable Medicines R&D expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 29.9% as compared to the prior year primarily due to an increase in in-licensing and upfront milestone payments of $30.0 million, including $20.0 million associated with our exclusive license of Omalizumab (refer to Note 23.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $295.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $345.6 million for the prior year. The year-over-year decrease in net operating cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior year period was primarily driven by (i) lower collections of outstanding accounts receivable due to timing of sales in the quarter ended December 31, 2022, which benefited the year ended December 31, 2023 and (ii) receipt of a $21.4 million upfront payment associated with thelicense agreement with Orion Corporation during the year ended December 31, 2023, partially offset by (i) increased profitability adjusted for non-cash items, (ii) lower period over period payments associated with the Opana ER® antitrust litigation settlement and (iii) favorable working capital movements, most notably an increase in days payables outstanding.
Current report
Net cash used in financing activities of $211.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 was relatively flat compared to the prior year as a decrease in payments associated with refinancing our Term Loan Due 2025 in the prior year of $162.3 million and a reduction in tax distributions paid to non-controlling interests of $51.1 million were offset by a year-over-year decrease in net debt and financing leases of $207.8 million and an increase inemployee payroll tax withholding on restricted stock unit vesting of $5.6 million. Refer to Note 15. Debt for additional information about the refinancing our Term Loan Due 2025. The decrease in tax distributions was the result of the Reorganization (refer to Note 21.

On June 30, 2023, we received a complete response letter (“CRL”) from the FDA regarding our new drug application (“NDA”) for IPX203 for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. The CRL indicated that although an adequate scientific bridge was established for the safety of one ingredient, levodopa, based on pharmacokinetic studies, it was not adequately established for the other ingredient, carbidopa, and the FDA requested additional information. The CRL did not identify any issues with respect to the efficacy or manufacturing of IPX203. During October 2023, we met with the FDA to align on the path to approval for IPX203. During the meeting, the FDA asked us to complete a QT study, a routine cardiac safety study that is required for new drugs. We completed the QT study and resubmitted our NDA for IPX203 on February 7, 2024.

Current wording
We have three reportable segments: Affordable Medicines (formerly known as Generics), Specialty, and AvKARE.
Previous wording
Our Generics segment includes over 260 product families covering an extensive range of dosage forms and delivery systems, including both immediate and extended release oral solids, powders, liquids, sterile injectables, nasal sprays, inhalation and respiratory products, ophthalmics, films, transdermal patches and topicals. We focus on developing products with substantial barriers-to-entry resulting due to complex drug formulations or manufacturing, or legal or regulatory challenges. Generic products, particularly in the U.S., generally contribute most significantly to revenues and gross margins at the time of their launch, and even more so in periods of market exclusivity, or in periods of limited generic competition. As such, the timing of new product introductions can have a significant impact on our financial results. The entrance into the market of additional competition generally has a negative impact on the volume and/or pricing of the affected products. Additionally, pricing is determined by market place dynamics and is often affected by factors outside of our control.

In 2018, we entered into a tax receivable agreement (“TRA”) for which we were generally required to pay the other holders of Amneal Common Units 85% of the applicable tax savings, if any, in U.S. federal and state income tax that we were deemed to realize as a result of certain tax attributes of their Amneal Common Units sold to us (or exchanged in a taxable sale) and that are created as a result of (i) the sales of their Amneal Common Units for shares of Class A common stock and (ii) tax benefits attributable to payments made under the TRA. As part of the Reorganization, the TRA was amended to reduce our future obligation to pay 85% of the realized tax benefits subject to the TRA to 75% of such realized benefits. As of December 31, 2023, the contingent TRA liability, including the impact of the amendment, was $185.2 million.
Current wording
As part of the Reorganization, our existing tax receivable agreement (“TRA”) was amended to reduce our future obligation to pay 85% of the realized tax benefits subject to the TRA to 75% of such realized benefits. As of December 31, 2024, the unrecorded contingent TRA liability, including the impact of the amendment, was $133.8 million.
Previous wording
The timing and amount of any payments under the TRA may vary, depending upon a number of factors including the timing and amount of our taxable income, and the corporate tax rate in effect at the time of realization of our taxable income (the TRA liability is determined based on a percentage of the corporate tax savings from the use of the TRA’s attributes). Because the Amneal Group has exchanged all of its Amneal Common Units pursuant to the Reorganization, the primary remaining factor that could increase the contingent TRA liability is an increase in the effective tax rate. In addition, any future payments under the TRA may create additional basis adjustments, which may result in an additional layer of depreciation and amortization allocable to the Company, resulting in additional TRA payments. The timing and amount of payments may also be accelerated under certain conditions, such as a change of control or other early termination event, which could give rise to our obligation to make TRA payments in advance of tax benefits being realized.
