ARDXHIGH SIGNALREGULATORY10-K

XPHOZAH's inclusion in the ESRD PPS on January 1, 2025 eliminated Medicare Part D coverage, causing a dramatic revenue collapse and fundamentally altering the company's commercial outlook.

The loss of Medicare Part D coverage for XPHOZAH represents a material regulatory setback that has severely impacted ARDX's primary revenue driver. The company now explicitly warns that future revenue growth will be materially slower than previously expected, while simultaneously acknowledging uncertainty about achieving cash flow positivity despite prior expectations of improvement.

The company's losses deepened substantially despite the lower revenue base, reflecting continued high operating costs amid reduced commercial performance. Total debt increased meaningfully alongside higher inventory levels, suggesting ongoing cash consumption and working capital needs despite the challenging operating environment.
