        advance a new Phase II clinical program for patients with Duchenne
        Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).
    --  Provided the FDA with additional data in support of approval submission
        for a new line of methotrexate products designed for the treatment of
        patients with arthritis and psoriasis.
    --  Pursued an update to the Caldolor label that includes new geriatric,
        shortened infusion, pediatric, and safety data.
    --  Continued a company-wide strategic review of products, partners, and
        organization.

"There has been an abundance of activity here at Cumberland during the third quarter," said A.J. Kazimi, Chief Executive Officer of Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. "We had a series of positive developments that helped us continue to make progress towards our goal of building a company that offers long-term, sustainable growth."

KEY DEVELOPMENTS:

Ifetroban

In September 2019, Cumberland announced the receival of FDA Orphan Drug Grant funding for a new Phase II clinical program. The Company has now initiated the clinical development of ifetroban for the treatment of cardiomyopathy associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). Based on pre-clinical findings, the FDA has cleared Cumberland's application to study ifetroban in DMD patients, seven years of age and older. In addition, Cumberland was awarded just over $1 million in funding from the FDA through their Orphan Drug Grant program to support this Phase II DMD clinical study. This study is the first DMD clinical study approved for FDA Orphan Product Development funding.

DMD is a rare, fatal, genetic neuromuscular disease and is characterized by the progressive loss of muscle which results in deterioration of the skeletal, heart and lung muscles. This deterioration leads to loss of movement and wheelchair dependency. Heart muscle disease is now the leading cause of death in patients with DMD. There is currently no universally effective treatment for the cardiomyopathy associated with DMD.

Additional Phase II studies of ifetroban are underway including several investigator-initiated trials. The Company is awaiting further study results before deciding on the best path for approval for ifetroban, Cumberland's first new chemical entity.

Methotrexate

In January 2019, Cumberland received notification from the FDA that the new drug application (NDA) for its new line of methotrexate products was complete and notified the Company of their acceptance for review, setting September 2019 as the Prescription Drug User Fee (PDUFA) action date for an approval decision. Since that time, Cumberland has had a number of communications with the FDA and addressed their questions through multiple amendments that were submitted to the application.

On August 22, 2019, the FDA sent Cumberland a goal extension letter in order to provide them with additional time to review the application setting a new PDUFA action date of early December 2019.

Caldolor

In January 2019, the FDA approved the application for Cumberland's next generation Caldolor product, featuring a new, patented formulation in a more convenient-to-use package. In April 2019, the Company began initial shipments of the product to select customers. During the third quarter of 2019, there was a growing demand for the product from these select accounts and planning for a full-scale launch of this next generation product is underway.

In addition, Cumberland completed a submission to the FDA in support of an update to a Caldolor approval that included new geriatric, shortened infusion, pediatric, and safety data. Aiming to further expand the product's label, the Company provided important data generated from its clinical studies regarding an optimal infusion time, additional safety information, as well as geriatric and pediatric administration. The revised label will also include a class label update on the use of NSAIDs with aspirin.

In early September 2019, the FDA informed Cumberland that the submission was not accepted for review because of the number of new claims. The FDA recommended splitting up the submission into several separate submissions, each containing a single proposed labeling claim or group of related labeling claims, with additional data in support of each claim. The Company is planning a Type A meeting to discuss the FDA's recommendations.

Cumberland has also completed a study to evaluate Caldolor in newborns up to six months of age. The Company is still gathering the data from this study and will report top-line results as they are available. Filing for an additional label expansion with this new data will then be considered.

Cumberland Strategic Review

Earlier this year, Cumberland announced a strategic review of its brands, capabilities, and international partners. This review followed an accelerated business development initiative, which resulted in a series of transactions. Because of that progress, the Company felt that it was prudent to take a fresh look at its product portfolio, partners, and organization to ensure proper focus and capabilities.

As a result, Cumberland:

    --  Expanded international arrangements through several new agreements,
        including a license with WinHealth Pharma for Vibativ in China and a
        license with R-Pharma JSC for Vibativ for Russia and several adjacent
        markets.
    --  Added personnel to its corporate, sales, and medical teams.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company:

    --  Completed the assignment and amendment of a Commercialization Agreement
        with Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Limited ("Dr. Reddy's") for the
        registration and distribution of Vibativ in India. Dr. Reddy's is a
        multinational pharmaceutical company based in Hyderabad, India. The
        company currently markets over 190 medications through their commercial
        operations in over 35 countries. Combined with their extensive network
        of manufacturing capabilities, Dr. Reddy's generated over $2.2 billion
        in sales during their 2018 - 2019 fiscal year.
    --  Extended the arrangements with Clinigen for Ethyol and Totect. On May
        13, 2019, Cumberland entered into an agreement with Clinigen Healthcare
        Limited to conclude the license and distribution agreement for Ethyol
        and Totect. In early September 2019, Clinigen and Cumberland agreed to
        change the transition date to late December 2019. Under the terms of the
        Agreement, Cumberland will no longer distribute Ethyol or Totect after
        the transition date and will receive $5 million in financial
        consideration from Clinigen, paid over a two-year period.
    --  Agreed to conclude a co-promotion agreement with Piramal Critical Care
        effective November 2, 2019. Piramal had been promoting Cumberland's
        Caldolor and Vaprisol in hospitals that Cumberland does not cover. A
        transition plan has been agreed and implemented to return those accounts
        from Piramal to Cumberland.

The Company provided the above adjusted supplemental financial performance measures, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others.

Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.

Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the Company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the Company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes. In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the Company's operating performance.

The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows:

    --  Adjusted Earnings (loss): net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of
        income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based
        compensation, Vibativ cost of product sold and interest income and
        interest expense.

(a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland.

(b) Represents the non-cash impact of the Vibativ cost of products sold. Cumberland has elected to add these costs back in the calculation of adjusted earnings as all the Vibativ inventory was transferred to Cumberland as part of the transaction with Theravance at no additional cost to the consideration agreed for the product acquisition.

    --  Adjusted Diluted Earnings (loss) Per Share: Adjusted Earnings (loss)
        divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.
