Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us today for Rockwell Medical's fourth quarter and full year 2022 results conference call and webcast. We have a number of exciting accomplishments that we want to review with you this morning, so let's get started. For those of you who are new to Rockwell Medical, and for those of you who have been following us for some time, I'd like to take a few minutes to remind everyone of our updated business model and strategy. Rockwell Medical is a revenue-generating healthcare company that develops, manufactures, commercializes, and distributes a portfolio of hemodialysis products for dialysis providers worldwide. Rockwell's mission is to provide dialysis clinics and the patients they serve with the highest quality products supported by the best customer service in the industry. Rockwell is the second largest supplier of life-sustaining hemodialysis concentrates products to dialysis clinics in the United States and is one of only two suppliers that has the manufacturing scalability and transportation infrastructure to service the over 7,002 dialysis clinics in the United States along with select international markets. This positions Rockwell as an indispensable player in a large and expanding market, which in the United States alone is currently valued at approximately $380 million and is projected to grow to approximately $500 million in 2026. Our vision is to become the leading global supplier of hemodialysis concentrates to dialysis providers worldwide. After joining Rockwell Medical in July of last year, I, together with Rockwell's management team and board of directors, underwent an extensive evaluation and assessment of our businesses and determined that for Rockwell to be successful, we need to focus our efforts on enhancing our revenue-generating businesses, pause our capital-intensive businesses, and focus on improving our financial condition, delivering this company, and drive us to profitability in 2024. We believe that the results we reported for the second and third quarter, and now for the fourth quarter and full year 2022, demonstrate that we are making significant progress towards these goals and objectives. Revenue is growing, gross profit is increasing, and operating expenses are declining. The key takeaway here is that our focused and revised business model is working. Let's turn our attention to Rockwell's fourth quarter and full year 2022 operational results. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we made a number of operational improvements to our business. First, we reacquired our distribution rights to our hemodialysis concentrates products from Baxter and terminated the exclusive distribution agreement that Rockwell originally entered into back in 2014. This transaction marked a critical inflection point for Rockwell. Removing ourselves from the Baxter agreement lifted a number of restrictive elements that made it impossible for us to grow our business and to establish long-term supply agreements with preferred economics. Reacquisition of this business allows us for the first time to control our own destiny. Our commercial team is actively transitioning the Baxter business to Rockwell, onboarding new and existing customers in the United States and abroad, and establishing long-term multimillion-dollar product purchase, supply, and distribution agreements. Tim will provide you with more details on the progress we are making with the transition and the commercial opportunities that lie ahead for Rockwell. In the fourth quarter, we continued to improve our top-line revenue, reduced our cash burn, and streamlined our operations. We reduced headcount related to non-core areas of our business and reduced our overall G&A expense. We eliminated expenses associated with Triferic in the U.S. as we made the strategic decision to move away from this product and put development activities associated with the FPC platform on hold. Rockwell has several international partnerships with companies looking to develop and commercialize Triferic in their respective countries. In 2022, Triferic and Triferic AVNU were approved in South Korea, and our partner, Jeil Pharmaceutical, launched Triferic in South Korea during the third quarter. We are actively keeping track of Triferic's market adoption and have already begun to realize revenue associated with Jeil's license and supply agreements. In addition, our partner in China, a subsidiary of Fosun Pharma, completed its pivotal phase 3 study in the fourth quarter of 2022, and we expect results from this study in mid-2023. As a reminder, these international partnerships require no capital expenditure and very little operational resources from Rockwell. While they have the potential to generate near and long-term revenue for the company, we have not factored this into our revenue forecasts. As it relates to FPC for home infusion, we announced during the fourth quarter of 2022 that we put development work for this program on hold because it required significant capital expenditures and Rockwell would not realize value from this program for many years to come. For the FPC for acute heart failure, we conducted a successful pre-IND meeting with the FDA at the end of 2022, which provided useful insight as we consider future development activities for this program. As we have discussed previously, this program is currently on hold and is available for us to reconsider once Rockwell achieves sustainable profitability. We get into our financial results, I wanted to take a moment to address the new way in which we presented our financials in this morning's press release. We believe that this evolved format clearly communicates our results in a more transparent, straightforward manner and illustrates the progress we are making against our objectives and their direct impact on our earnings per share. This type of financial measurement is customary in successful revenue-generating businesses, and we felt it was time to transition to this updated format of presenting our financials. I am pleased to report that for the fourth quarter 2022, we reported $19.3 million in revenue, which represented our third consecutive quarter achieving record revenue in the company's history. For the full year 2022, Rockwell generated $72.8 million in revenue, exceeding our guidance, which represents a 17.6% increase when compared to the comparable period in 2021 and the highest full-year revenue to date for the company. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we entered into an amendment of our loan agreement, accelerating the paydown of our debt with a $5 million prepayment of our existing loan, leaving Rockwell Medical with $10 million of long-term debt as of December 31st, 2022. This offers Rockwell the opportunity to reduce its interest expense by agreeing to a 10-month interest-only period starting December 1st, 2022, and ending with our last payment on September 1st, 2023. As we look to 2023, our corporate objectives are very clear. We plan to focus on commercially growing our business by expanding into new geographies, optimizing agreements with existing customers, adding new customers with long-term supply agreements with preferred economics. We expect to continue to focus on reducing our expenses and operating our business more efficiently. We plan to continue to find ways to enhance our financial condition and seek ways to further reduce our debt. Based on these goals and forecasted demand for our hemodialysis concentrates products in 2023, we expect to generate $78 million-$82 million in revenue in 2023. At the top of that range, this represents a 13% increase in revenue over 2022. We are expecting to generate gross profit between $7 million and $9 million in 2023. The decisions we have made and continue to make are consistent with our strategy going forward to drive our business to achieve profitability in 2024 and put the company in a stronger, more stable financial position. We are well on our way and anticipate that revenue for the first quarter of 2023 will be in line with revenue of the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting the timing of the Baxter transition and contract renewals. I would like to introduce you to Tim Chole, our Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, who leads our commercial organization here at Rockwell Medical. Tim has more than 20 years of experience in sales and marketing at some of the largest renal care companies in the world and has successfully built renal care portfolios and significantly grown their sales. I will now turn the call over to Tim to provide you with a commercial update related to our hemodialysis concentrates business. Thank you, Mark. Since reacquiring the distribution rights for our hemodialysis products from Baxter and terminating the exclusive distribution agreement, our commercial strategy is now focused on two key areas. First, we're focused on transitioning the more than 700 former Baxter customers to Rockwell to ensure that our life-sustaining products continue to get to the hospitals, medical centers, dialysis centers, and health systems that serve hemodialysis patients. I'm pleased to report that this transition is on track, and we've successfully assumed commercial responsibility for Baxter's customers. We're now systematically working with each of these customers to establish new agreements with preferred terms and conditions and long-term supply arrangements. Now Rockwell is capturing more of the economics associated with these customers, all of which we were unable to do previously under the Baxter agreement. This ultimately benefits Rockwell, our stockholders, and our customers in the long term. The second strategic priority is to grow our business by adding new customers and expanding into new geographies to access portions of the hemodialysis concentrate market that was previously unavailable to us under the Baxter arrangement. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we expanded our distribution capabilities further westward into Minnesota and are excited to be working more closely with our largest partner to support their dialysis centers and an estimated 3,000 additional patients with our life-sustaining hemodialysis products. Additionally, we announced last month that we signed two new supply agreements with two new partners. The first agreement is a 3-year multi-million dollar product purchase agreement with Concerto Renal Services, the largest provider of dialysis and skilled nursing facilities in the United States. The second agreement is a 3-year multi-million dollar supply agreement with the largest nonprofit dialysis provider in the United States. Each of these arrangements include multi-year annual minimum purchase commitments and have the opportunity to increase as our customers' respective businesses grow. These are the first of many agreements that we anticipate establishing this year to grow our hemodialysis concentrates business and drive Rockwell toward profitability in 2024. Hemodialysis concentrates are Rockwell's core focus and competency. Given the disruptions that other suppliers have experienced recently, we are determined now more than ever to become the global leader in this market. Customers want to work with Rockwell because we are dedicated to providing the highest quality products supported by the best customer service in the industry. I'm personally very excited about the progress we've been making and the opportunities that lie ahead for Rockwell. I'll turn the call over to Paul to go through our fourth quarter and full year 2022 financial results. Thank you, Tim. Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2022, was $19.3 million. This represents a 26% increase over the comparable period in 2021. Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $72.8 million, which represents a 17.6% increase over the same period in 2021. Net cash used in operating activities was $594,000 for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Net cash used in operating activities was $17.4 million for the full year of 2022, compared with $33.5 million for the comparable period in 2021, which represents a 48% reduction in cash used in operating activities year-over-year. For the three months ended December 31, 2022, Rockwell's net loss was $2.4 million or $0.20 per share, compared with the net loss of $8.9 million or $1.05 per share for the same period in 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, Rockwell's net loss was $18.7 million or $1.89 per share, compared with a net loss of $32.7 million or $3.83 per share in 2021. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we accelerated the pay down of our debt with a $5 million prepayment of our existing loan, leaving Rockwell Medical with $10 million of long-term debt at December 31, 2022. Comparatively, at December 31, 2021, Rockwell's outstanding debt was $21.6 million. Rockwell's cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2022 was $21.5 million, as compared to $27.6 million at September 30, 2022. The reduction in our cash balance includes a $5 million debt prepayment and one-time costs associated with the purchase of equipment and severance related expenses. Absent these one-time charges, Rockwell is moving significantly closer to becoming cash flow neutral. Overall, we're pleased with our financial performance in the fourth quarter and full year of 2022 and remain focused on continuing to position us for future growth as we drive towards profitability in 2024. I will now turn the call back over to Mark. Thank you, Paul. Operator, please open the phone lines for any questions. At this time, I would like to remind everyone, in order to ask a question, press star, then the number one on your telephone keypad. Your first question today comes from the line of Raghuram Selvaraju from H.C. Wainwright. Your line is open. Thanks very much for taking my questions. Can you hear me? We can. Yep. I was just wondering in a general sense whether you could comment on potential drivers of upside to your current 2023 top-line guidance. In particular, how you are seeing the underlying market dynamics evolving this year so far, particularly as you look to acquire market share, the hemodialysis concentrates business. Yeah. Thank you, for those questions. Let me start sort of with the second one first. You know, what we're seeing in the dialysis market today is that, you know, there is a shift that's occurring as we come out of what I think was a declining period during COVID. You know, what we're seeing and certainly what, you know, dialysis providers are reporting is that, you know, for the first time that decline of patient census has begun to slow and that, those businesses are beginning to start to see that leveling off and potentially now see a path in 23 for that growth to re-resume, meaning the increase in patient censuses. From a dialysis perspective, I think, you know, we're through, you know, what has been a, you know, probably for the first time in this industry a serious contraction and are now beginning to start to move back to, you know, growth that had been seen previously in this business, which will obviously impact, you know, the amount of concentrates that are then used to service those patients. I think secondly, I would comment that in the, in the hemodialysis concentrate market, you know, we're continuing to see shifting dynamics there as well. Again, those point towards the continual need for Rockwell to supply, you know, the lion's share of the dialysis clinics that exist here in the U.S. and abroad. We are, you know, fortunate that the reputation that Rockwell has for not only its customer service, not only its distribution, but as well the quality of its products, you know, is one that those in the industry know and therefore, you know, are excited to access. You know, the second path to growth for us is gonna be, you know, accelerated addition of customers that we've already started and you've seen that we've announced at the beginning of the year. Very much appreciate that color. Just two other quick ones. Firstly, can you comment on how you expect OP spending to trend during 2023, particularly in light of how low it was in the fourth quarter of 2022? Also if you could give us a sense of what you expect to do with respect to continuing management of the debt position, and potentially paying it down still further during the course of 2023. Thank you. Yep. Although we haven't given guidance towards spending in 2023, it is a key priority for us to continue to operate this business in a more efficient manner. That includes, you know, production of our products as well as, you know, the management of our organization. You know, what I would say to that is we are gonna continue to work incredibly hard to try to find ways to continue to decrease the expenses associated with operating this business. Second, on the debt, you know, the way that the Innovatus agreement is set up, we are set to pay that off in 2024 or by 2024. We're gonna continue to look for ways to accelerate that, to, you know, again, continue to provide flexibility for our business. We plan to, you know, consistently follow the way that the payment schedules are contemplated in the agreement, which as I said, you know, allows us to pay that off by the end or by a period in 2024. We'll look for ways to accelerate that. Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Brandon Folkes from Cantor Fitzgerald. Your line is open. Hi. Thanks for taking my questions. Congratulations on all the progress. Just a very high level one from me maybe. Can you help us just conceptualize or think about where you are in terms of sort of the strategy? What I mean by that is obviously tremendous progress in 2022. Looks like continued, you know, significant progress in 2023 based on the guidance. Sort of how much opportunity do you see to continue, you know, on this sort of growing concentrate and kind of optimizing the cost structure within the next few years? How should we think about that versus maybe sort of evolving the strategy over the next few years? Thank you. Yeah. Thanks, Brandon. You know, as we've discussed previously, the goal and we see a path to building this business to $100+ million in revenue. We think, you know, we think we have a path that allows us to do that. We've also spoken to the fact that our primary objective is to become the leading supplier of hemodialysis concentrates worldwide. Again, further growth for us will include tapping into international markets where we do not currently provide products today. That's where the additional growth will come from. I think third to that, for the first time now being outside of the Baxter agreement, we have the ability to contemplate adding new products to our portfolio. We are actively evaluating, you know, additional products to add, that take advantage of our manufacturing capacity and expertise as well as our distribution capabilities to grow out, you know, a larger renal care portfolio. Those are some of the areas that, you know, I would say that we are focused on, to growing this business, you know, sort of well beyond where we stand today. Great. Thank you very much, and congratulations on all the progress. Thanks, Brandon. There are no further questions. I will now turn the call back over to Dr. Strobeck. Thank you, operator. Thank you everyone for joining us on today's call. It was a pleasure to provide you with an overview of our accomplishments in 2022. We are steadfast and focused on driving our overall business to profitability, improving our financial position, maximizing revenue, and unlocking the value of our manufacturing and distribution capabilities. We are putting Rockwell Medical in a better position to drive growth and further improve our performance so we can serve more patients, clinics, and major medical centers around the world. We are in the business to make products that impact a patient's life. This is our passion. We take this responsibility very seriously. We look forward to sharing our progress on future calls. This concludes today's conference call and webcast. You may now disconnect.
