BEDFORD, Mass., May 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lantheus Holdings, Inc. (Lantheus or the Company) (NASDAQ: LNTH), the leading radiopharmaceutical-focused company committed to enabling clinicians to Find, Fight and Follow disease to deliver better patient outcomes, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
"We are laying the foundation for the next chapter of Lantheus’ business with the acquisition of Evergreen Theragnostics and planned acquisition of Life Molecular Imaging, both of which add growth drivers that complement our business and diversify our revenues.

Full Year 2025 Interim Corporate Financial Guidance
| Guidance Issued May 7, 2025 | Guidance Issued February 26, 2025 | ||
| FY 2025 Revenue | $1.550 billion - $1.585 billion | $1.545 billion - $1.610 billion | |
| FY 2025 Adjusted fully diluted EPS | $6.60 - $6.70 | $7.00 - $7.20 | |
On a forward-looking basis, the Company does not provide GAAP income per common share guidance or a reconciliation of GAAP income per common share to adjusted fully diluted EPS 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.

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; adjusted operating income and its line components, 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 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.
