Background

Business

Baudax Bio, Inc. (“Baudax Bio” or the “Company”) is a pharmaceutical company primarily focused on developing and commercializing innovative products for acute care settings. Baudax Bio believes it can bring valuable therapeutic options to patients, prescribers and payers, such as its lead product, ANJESO® (meloxicam) injection.

In June 2020, Baudax Bio announced the commercial launch of ANJESO, which is indicated for the management of moderate to severe pain, alone or in combination with other non-NSAID analgesics and that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) approved transitional pass-through status and established a new reimbursement C-code for ANJESO.

In October 2020, the J-code for ANJESO facilitating reimbursement in the hospital outpatient, ambulatory surgery center and physician office settings of care took effect and replaced the previously issued C-code.

The Company has determined that it operates in a single segment involved in the commercialization and development of innovative products for hospital and other acute care settings.

The Separation

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement between Recro Pharma, Inc. (“Recro”) and Baudax Bio, Recro transferred the assets, liabilities, and operations of its Acute Care business to the Company (the “Separation”) and, on November 21, 2019, the distribution date, each Recro shareholder received one share of the Company’s common stock for every two and one-half shares of Recro common stock held of record at the close of business on November 15, 2019, the record date for the distribution (the “Distribution”). Following the Distribution and Separation, Baudax Bio operates as a separate, independent company.
