paciralogo2025a.jpg FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NEWS RELEASE Pacira BioSciences Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results -- Conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET -- BRISBANE, CA, May 8, 2025 - Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCRX), the industry leader in its commitment to deliver innovative, non-opioid pain therapies to transform the lives of patients, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2025. First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights • Total revenues of $168.9 million • Net product sales of $136.5 million for EXPAREL, $23.3 million for ZILRETTA, and $5.1 million for iovera° • Net income of $4.8 million, or $0.10 per share (basic and diluted) • Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of $44.1 million See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below. “We entered 2025 sharply focused on our 5x30 strategy and our transition into an innovative biopharmaceutical organization,” said Frank D. Lee, chief executive officer of Pacira BioSciences. “The favorable settlement of our EXPAREL patent litigation marks an early and meaningful milestone in our 5x30 strategy, reinforcing our leadership in musculoskeletal pain and adjacencies for years to come. Our recently established EXPAREL exclusivity runway extends to 2039 and provides long-term visibility that empowers us to confidently execute our 5x30 strategy as we generate significant cash flow. With NOPAIN presenting a significant opportunity to expand our EXPAREL market share and drive growth, we believe we are poised to remain the branded market leader and advance much-needed innovation for the 1 in 4 Americans suffering from chronic pain.” “Our confidence in Pacira’s future remains steadfast and the recently announced $300 million stock buyback program underscores our belief in our team, products, and long-term growth outlook,” added Mr. Lee. Recent Business Highlights • Settlement of U.S. Patent Litigation for EXPAREL. In April 2025, the company successfully reached a volume-limited settlement agreement with Fresenius Kabi USA and its partners. The agreement recognizes the strength of the EXPAREL intellectual property portfolio with an exclusivity runway that extends to 2039. Limited volumes will begin at a
Page 2
high single-digit percentage of the total volume distributed in the U.S. The limited volume will increase gradually until reaching a maximum percentage in the high thirties for the final three years of the agreement. • First Patient Dosed in Phase 2 Study Evaluating Safety and Efficacy of PCRX-201 for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis of the Knee. In April 2025, patient dosing began in the Phase 2 ASCEND study of PCRX- 201 (enekinragene inzadenovec) for the treatment of osteoarthritis, or OA, of the knee. ASCEND is a two- part, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled multicenter study that will involve approximately 135 patients 45 to 80 years old with painful OA of the knee and a Kellgren-Lawrence severity grade of 2, 3 or 4. The company expects to report topline results from Part A of the study before the end of 2026. • Favorable Court Ruling Eliminates EXPAREL Royalty Obligation to RDF. In April 2025, the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada issued judgment in favor of the company declaring that it was no longer required to pay a low single-digit percentage royalty on EXPAREL sales to Research and Development Foundation, or RDF. As a result, the company will immediately stop paying any future royalties to RDF on sales of EXPAREL. In addition, the company is seeking repayment for royalties previously paid under protest to RDF. • Corporate Headquarters Shift to Brisbane, California. In March 2025, the company relocated its corporate headquarters to Brisbane, California. The shift places the company in the biopharmaceutical hub of South San Francisco and aligns with its 5x30 plan to transition into an innovative biopharmaceutical organization. In addition, the company recently closed its Houston training facility and has initiated the process of winding down its Tampa training facility, with that site expected to be fully offline in 2026. • New EXPAREL Patent. In March 2025, the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued Patent No. 12,251,468 (the ‘468 patent) claiming EXPAREL composition made by the company’s large-scale batch process in San Diego, which demonstrated a more consistent and stable multivesicular liposome as measured by in vitro release assay, or IVRA. The ‘468 patent marks the 18 EXPAREL patent listed in the FDA’s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations (the “Orange Book”) and additional patents are forthcoming. The ‘468 patent has an expiration date of July 2, 2044. • Strategic Acquisition of GQ Bio to Advance 5x30 Growth Strategy. In February 2025, Pacira acquired the remaining 81 percent equity stake of GQ Bio Therapeutics GmbH. The transaction brought to Pacira a novel, high capacity, local delivery platform for genetic medicines, a preclinical portfolio, and research and development talent. It also builds upon Pacira’s previous investments in GQ Bio, as well as the two companies’ partnership that was initiated in 2023 for the development of a commercially scalable manufacturing process for PCRX-201 and other products utilizing the platform. th

Today’s Conference Call and Webcast Reminder The Pacira management team will host a conference call to discuss the company’s financial results and recent developments today, Thursday, May 8, 2025, at 4:30 p.m. ET. For listeners who wish to participate in the question- and-answer session via telephone, please pre-register at investor.pacira.com/upcoming-events. All registrants will receive dial-in information and a PIN allowing them to access the live call. In addition, a live audio of the conference call will be available as a webcast. Interested parties can access the event through the “Events” page on the Pacira website at investor.pacira.com. Non-GAAP Financial Information This press release contains financial measures that do not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), such as non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP cost of goods sold, non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expense, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per common share, non-GAAP weighted average diluted common shares outstanding, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and adjusted EBITDA, because these non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of items that management believes affect comparability or underlying business trends. These measures supplement the company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Pacira management uses these measures to better analyze its financial results, estimate its future cost of goods sold, R&D expense and SG&A expense outlook for 2025 and to help make managerial decisions. In management’s opinion, these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and other users of the company’s financial statements by providing greater transparency into the ongoing operating performance of Pacira and its future outlook. Such measures should not be deemed to be an alternative to GAAP requirements or a measure of liquidity for Pacira. The non-GAAP measures presented here are also unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP disclosures released by other companies. See the tables below for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.

About Pacira Pacira delivers innovative, non-opioid pain therapies to transform the lives of patients. Pacira has three commercial-stage non-opioid treatments: EXPAREL (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension), a long-acting local analgesic currently approved for infiltration, fascial plane block, and as an interscalene brachial plexus nerve block, an adductor canal nerve block, and a sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa for postsurgical pain management; ZILRETTA (triamcinolone acetonide extended-release injectable suspension), an extended-release, intra-articular injection indicated for the management of osteoarthritis knee pain; and ioveraº, a novel, handheld device for delivering immediate, long-acting, drug-free pain control using precise, controlled doses of cold temperature to a targeted nerve. The company is also advancing the development of PCRX-201 (enekinragene inzadenovec), a novel locally administered gene therapy with the potential to treat large prevalent diseases like osteoarthritis. To learn more about Pacira, visit www.pacira.com. About EXPAREL(bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension) EXPAREL is indicated to produce postsurgical local analgesia via infiltration in patients aged 6 years and older, and postsurgical regional analgesia via an interscalene brachial plexus block in adults, a sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa in adults, and an adductor canal block in adults. The safety and effectiveness of EXPAREL have not been established to produce postsurgical regional analgesia via other nerve blocks besides an interscalene brachial plexus nerve block, a sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa, or an adductor canal block. The product combines bupivacaine with multivesicular liposomes, a proven product delivery technology that delivers medication over a desired time period. EXPAREL represents the first and only multivesicular liposome local anesthetic that can be utilized in the peri- or postsurgical setting. By utilizing the multivesicular liposome platform, a single dose of EXPAREL delivers bupivacaine over time, providing significant reductions in cumulative pain scores with up to a 78 percent decrease in opioid consumption; the clinical benefit of the opioid reduction was not demonstrated. Additional information is available at www.EXPAREL.com. ® ® ® ®

Important Safety Information about EXPAREL for Patients EXPAREL should not be used in obstetrical paracervical block anesthesia. In studies in adults where EXPAREL was injected into a wound, the most common side effects were nausea, constipation, and vomiting. In studies in adults where EXPAREL was injected near a nerve, the most common side effects were nausea, fever, and constipation. In the study where EXPAREL was given to children, the most common side effects were nausea, vomiting, constipation, low blood pressure, low number of red blood cells, muscle twitching, blurred vision, itching, and rapid heartbeat. EXPAREL can cause a temporary loss of feeling and/or loss of muscle movement. How much and how long the loss of feeling and/or muscle movement depends on where and how much of EXPAREL was injected and may last for up to 5 days. EXPAREL is not recommended to be used in patients younger than 6 years old for injection into the wound, for patients younger than 18 years old, for injection near a nerve, and/or in pregnant women. Tell your health care provider if you or your child has liver disease, since this may affect how the active ingredient (bupivacaine) in EXPAREL is eliminated from the body. EXPAREL should not be injected into the spine, joints, or veins. The active ingredient in EXPAREL can affect the nervous system and the cardiovascular system; may cause an allergic reaction; may cause damage if injected into the joints; and can cause a rare blood disorder. About ZILRETTA(triamcinolone acetonide extended-release injectable suspension) On October 6, 2017, ZILRETTA was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as the first and only extended-release intra-articular therapy for patients confronting osteoarthritis (OA)- related knee pain. ZILRETTA employs proprietary microsphere technology combining triamcinolone acetonide—a commonly administered, short-acting corticosteroid—with a poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) matrix to provide extended pain relief. The pivotal Phase 3 trial on which the approval of ZILRETTA was based showed that ZILRETTA significantly reduced OA knee pain for 12 weeks, with some people experiencing pain relief through Week 16. Learn more at www.zilretta.com. Indication and Select Important Safety Information for ZILRETTA Indication: ZILRETTA is indicated as an intra-articular injection for the management of OA pain of the knee. Limitation of Use: The efficacy and safety of repeat administration of ZILRETTA have not been demonstrated. Contraindication: ZILRETTA is contraindicated in patients who are hypersensitive to triamcinolone acetonide, corticosteroids or any components of the product. Warnings and Precautions: • Intra-articular Use Only: ZILRETTA has not been evaluated and should not be administered by epidural, intrathecal, intravenous, intraocular, intramuscular, intradermal, or subcutaneous routes. ZILRETTA should not be considered safe for epidural or intrathecal administration. ®

• Serious Neurologic Adverse Reactions with Epidural and Intrathecal Administration: Serious neurologic events have been reported following epidural or intrathecal corticosteroid administration. Corticosteroids are not approved for this use. • Hypersensitivity reactions: Serious reactions have been reported with triamcinolone acetonide injection. Institute appropriate care if an anaphylactic reaction occurs. • Joint infection and damage: A marked increase in joint pain, joint swelling, restricted motion, fever and malaise may suggest septic arthritis. If this occurs, conduct appropriate evaluation and if confirmed, institute appropriate antimicrobial treatment. Adverse Reactions: The most commonly reported adverse reactions (incidence ≥1%) in clinical studies included sinusitis, cough, and contusions. Please see ZILRETTALabel.com for full Prescribing Information. About iovera° The iovera° system uses the body’s natural response to cold to treat peripheral nerves and immediately reduce pain without the use of drugs. Treated nerves are temporarily stopped from sending pain signals for a period of time, followed by a restoration of function. Treatment with iovera° works by applying targeted cold to a peripheral nerve. A precise cold zone is formed under the skin that is cold enough to immediately prevent the nerve from sending pain signals without causing damage to surrounding structures. The effect on the nerve is temporary, providing pain relief until the nerve regenerates and function is restored. Treatment with iovera° does not include injection of any substance, opioid, or any other drug. The effect is immediate and can last up to 90 days. The iovera° system is not indicated for treatment of central nervous system tissue. Additional information is available at www.iovera.com. Indication and Select Important Safety Information for iovera° Indication: iovera° applies freezing cold to peripheral nerve tissue to block and/or relieve pain for up to 90 days. It should not be used to treat central nervous system tissue. Important Safety Information ⦁ Do not receive treatment with iovera° if you experience hypersensitivity to cold or have open and/or infected wounds near the treatment site. ⦁ You may experience bruising, swelling, inflammation and/or redness, local pain and/or tenderness, and altered feeling at the site of application. ⦁ In treatment area(s), you may experience damage to the skin, skin darkening or lightening, and dimples in the skin. ⦁ You may experience a temporary loss of your ability to use your muscles normally outside of the treatment area. ⦁ Talk to your doctor before receiving treatment with iovera°. ® ®

About PCRX-201 (enekinragene inzadenovec) PCRX-201 (enekinragene inzadenovec) features an innovative design based on the company’s proprietary high- capacity adenovirus vector platform. It is currently being studied in the fundamental, underlying chronic inflammatory processes that contribute to “wear and tear” over time in osteoarthritis of the knee, a condition that affects more than 14 million individuals in the U.S. today. In November 2024, Pacira reported promising data from a large Phase 1 study in which PCRX-201 provided sustained improvements in knee pain, stiffness, and function through two years following local administration, with a well-tolerated safety profile. PCRX-201 has received Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMP) designation from the European Medicines Agency. PCRX-201 is the first gene therapy to achieve these clinical results and earn these regulatory designations in osteoarthritis of the knee—a testament to its promise and potential. Given the promising Phase 1 results, dosing is underway in a Phase 2 study of PCRX-201 (the ASCEND study) for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. To learn more about PCRX-201 and the company’s clinical development program, please visit the investor events section of the company’s investor website. About the High-capacity Adenovirus Vector Platform In February 2025, in support of the company’s ‘5x30’ growth strategy, Pacira acquired GQ Bio Therapeutics and its novel high-capacity adenovirus (HCAd) vector gene therapy vector platform. This platform solves many of the challenges in the field of gene therapy that have prevented its utilization in treating common diseases, such as osteoarthritis. Key features include: • The HCAd vector is much more efficient at delivering genes into cells compared to many other gene therapies that rely on adenovirus associated virus, or AAV, vectors. As a result, the desired effect can be achieved with much smaller doses. • The vector used in the HCAd platform can carry up to 30,000 base pairs of DNA, which enables gene therapy with multiple or larger genes compared to AAV vectors. • Genetic medicines based on the HCAd platform can be administered locally and have the potential for redosing at therapeutically appropriate intervals. • Lower dose levels and efficient delivery of genes into cells means that thousands of doses can be produced in a single batch. As a result, therapies built on the HCAd platform are expected to have a commercially attractive and viable cost of goods profile. Beyond PCRX-201 and other product candidates in preclinical development, the company has identified numerous well-validated cytokines that could also be the basis for locally administered genetic therapies using the HCAd platform.

Pacira BioSciences, Inc. Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information (continued) (unaudited) (1) In February 2024, the Company initiated a restructuring plan designed to ensure it is well positioned for long-term growth. The restructuring plan included: (i) reshaping the Company’s executive team; (ii) reallocating efforts and resources from the Company’s ex-U.S. and certain early-stage development programs to its commercial portfolio in the U.S. market; and (iii) reprioritizing investments to focus on commercial readiness for the implementation of separate Medicare reimbursement for EXPAREL at average sales price plus 6 percent in outpatient settings and iovera° up to an additional $255.85 when providers administer iovera° in ambulatory surgical centers and outpatient settings beginning in January 2025 and broader commercial initiatives in key areas, such as strategic national accounts, marketing and market access and reimbursement. The 2024 charges related to employee termination benefits, severance, and, to a lesser extent, other employment-related termination costs. (2) Approximately $2.2 million of restructuring charges were excluded from this line item as it was included in the stock-based compensation line item for the three months ended March 31, 2024. (3) During the three months ended March 31, 2025, acquisition-related expenses related to legal fees and third-party services related to the acquisition of GQ Bio Therapeutics GmbH. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, acquisition-related fees related to vacant and underutilized leases assumed from the acquisition of Flexion Therapeutics, Inc.. (4) The Company recognized $7.0 million of legal settlement costs during the three months ended March 31, 2025 related to the legal settlement of the patent infringement suits against Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC, eVenus Pharmaceuticals Laboratories, Inc., and Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (5) The Company appointed a new chief executive officer (“CEO”) effective January 2, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, CEO transition costs included compensation costs related to the transition of the former CEO. (6) The tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments is computed by: (i) applying the statutory tax rate to the income or expense adjusted items; (ii) applying a zero-tax rate to adjusted items where a valuation allowance exists; and (iii) excluding discrete tax benefits and expenses, primarily associated with tax deductible and non-deductible stock- based compensation. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the GAAP effective income tax rate was approximately 45% and the non-GAAP effective income tax rate was approximately 24%, with the difference from GAAP primarily related to the impact of excluding discrete tax expense for non-deductible stock-based compensation, tax expense for non- deductible executive compensation and the non-U.S. valuation allowance and non-deductible items related to the acquisition of GQ Bio Therapeutics GmbH. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the GAAP effective income tax rate was approximately 34% and the non-GAAP effective income tax rate was approximately 24%, with the difference from GAAP primarily due to the impact of excluding both discrete tax expenses associated with non-deductible stock-based compensation and tax expenses related to executive compensation. (7) For the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no non-GAAP adjustments when calculating the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding or the interest expense add back under the “if-converted” method. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the 0.75% convertible senior notes due 2025, or 2025 Notes, were excluded from diluted net income per common share on a GAAP basis as the impact would have been antidilutive. These potential securities resulted in a dilutive impact on diluted net income per common share reported on a non- GAAP basis. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, non-GAAP adjustments to diluted weighted average shares outstanding included the impact of the 2025 Notes as if they converted on the first day of the period presented, which resulted in an additional 2.8 million common shares upon an assumed conversion and added back $0.5 million of interest expense, net of tax, to non-GAAP net income. We have the option to settle our 2025 Notes in cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock.
