Eagle Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: EGRX) reported Q2 EPS of $0.57, $0.34 better than the analyst estimate of $0.23. Revenue for the quarter came in at $41.9 million versus the consensus estimate of $42.28 million.

“We had an excellent start to the first half of the year, advancing our exciting pipeline of oncology and critical care products. Our ANDA and orphan drug exclusivity legal wins for BENDEKA, CMS’ decision to establish a separate J-Code and supplement approval for the 500mg dose for PEMFEXY, along with continued progress on our fulvestrant product candidate and the opportunity for vasopressin, supports the diversification and acceleration of Eagle’s earnings power,” stated Scott Tarriff, Chief Executive Officer of Eagle Pharmaceuticals.

“We’re also pleased with our collaborations with Tyme, NorthShore University HealthSystem, and UPenn to advance important products. Furthermore, we have made progress on the study of RYANODEX for the treatment of brain damage secondary to Nerve Agent exposure, as we continue to pursue expanded indications. We have important work ahead in the second half of the year, regardless of EHS, and we will continue to identify opportunities that fulfill our strategic vision and bring innovative therapeutics to the patients who can benefit,” concluded Tarriff.
