Conference Call at 8:30 a.m. EST Today

BOSTON, May 10, 2018 — Juniper Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq:JNP), a diversified healthcare company with core businesses of its CRINONE^® (progesterone gel) franchise and fee-for-service pharmaceutical development and manufacturing business, JPS, today announced financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. Cash and equivalents were $20.7 million at March 31, 2018 compared to $21.4 million at December 31, 2017.

“We made tremendous progress thus far this year having achieved two important strategic priorities for 2018 aimed at building shareholder value, while also driving strong growth momentum in our core businesses,” said Alicia Secor, Chief Executive Officer. “At the beginning of the year, we successfully secured an extension of our supply agreement for CRINONE^®, and we expect to realize continued long-term growth in this important core business.”

Ms. Secor added, “More recently, we executed on our goal of finding a partner for the development and commercialization of our intravaginal ring (IVR) technology. Our agreement with Daré Bioscience provides for significant milestone payments for each IVR candidate and royalties on any future sales. Our engagement with Rothschild to pursue strategic alternatives is progressing, and in parallel we remain very focused on the growth of our core businesses, JPS and CRINONE^®, which are on track to deliver continued double-digit growth for 2018.”
