David Moatazedi: Thank you, Nareg, and good afternoon, everyone. The Q2 represents a meaningful inflection point for Evolus. We delivered 21% revenue growth, generated our third consecutive quarter of +adjusted EBITDA, expanded our international footprint with the launch of Estyme in Europe, and announced two strategic licensing agreements that further strengthen our long-term portfolio. Importantly, Evolus gained significant share across the US injectable aesthetics market during the Q2, underscoring the growing momentum of our portfolio strategy across both neurotoxins and hyaluronic acid gels. Reflecting the strength of our H1 performance, we also raised our full year 2026 financial outlook. As we enter the H2 of the year, we are well-positioned to build on this momentum. Consumer demand continued to strengthen during the Q2. Treatment intervals remained stable, and practitioners reported healthy patient traffic and engagement.

Speaker #3: Importantly, Evolus gained significant share across the U.S. injectable aesthetics market during the quarter. Underscoring the growing momentum of our portfolio strategy across both neurotoxins and hyaluronic acid gels, reflecting the strength of our first-half performance, we also raised our full-year 2026 financial outlook.

David Moatazedi: Reflecting the strength of our H1 performance, we also raised our full year 2026 financial outlook. As we enter the H2 of the year, we are well-positioned to build on this momentum. Consumer demand continued to strengthen during the Q2. Treatment intervals remained stable, and practitioners reported healthy patient traffic and engagement. We estimate the US neurotoxin market grew at a faster than expected mid-single digit growth rate during the Q2, while the hyaluronic acid gel market returned to positive growth following two consecutive years of declines.

Speaker #3: As we enter the second half of the year, we are well-positioned to build on this momentum. Consumer demand continued to strengthen during the quarter, treatment intervals remained stable, and practitioners reported healthy patient traffic and engagement.

Speaker #3: We estimate the U.S. neurotoxin market grew at a faster-than-expected mid-single-digit growth rate during the quarter. While the hyaluronic acid gel market returned a positive growth following two consecutive years of declines, consumers continued to prioritize aesthetic treatments and practices remained focused on products that deliver predictable clinical outcomes and high patient satisfaction.

David Moatazedi: We estimate the US neurotoxin market grew at a faster than expected mid-single digit growth rate during the Q2, while the hyaluronic acid gel market returned to positive growth following two consecutive years of declines. Consumers continued to prioritize aesthetic treatments, and practices remained focused on products that deliver predictable clinical outcomes and high patient satisfaction. Against this improving backdrop, we continued to meaningfully outpace the market through disciplined commercial execution, which led to market share gains across our portfolio. That execution is evident through our business performance. Global toxin revenue exceeded $75 million during the Q2, driven by double-digit toxin growth across both the United States and our international markets. As our portfolio continues to expand, we're seeing customers increasingly adopt our products within their practices.

Jeuveau continues to strengthen its competitive position through growing customer loyalty and market share gains, while Evolysse is following the same disciplined commercialization strategy that made Jeuveau successful. During the Q2, Evolysse revenue increased by more than $2 million sequentially, reflecting increased customer penetration, reorder rates, and utilization within existing accounts.

As a result of the continued strength across our portfolio, we remain on track for both Evolence and our international business to each contribute more than 10% of total company revenue this year.

A key milestone in our evolution is our recent partnership with IBSA to exclusively develop and commercialize Profhilo in the United States. Profhilo is an asset we've been actively pursuing because it represents the gold standard in the rapidly emerging skin quality category. With the addition of Profhilo, Evolus is expanding into a new third injectable aesthetics vertical of skin quality, further diversifying our differentiated portfolio and reinforcing our strategy of building a comprehensive injectable platform. Profhilo defines the skin quality category globally and is widely recognized as a market-leading brand for skin quality in Europe, with no directly comparable product currently available in the United States.

David Moatazedi: Similar to Jeuveau, we will own the US regulatory filings and lead the clinical development and commercialization strategy for Profhilo, creating long-term value around the asset, which has the potential to generate more than $100 million in peak annual revenue. More broadly, our partnerships with companies such as IBSA, Symatese, and Daewoong demonstrate that leading global innovators increasingly view Evolus as a partner of choice to develop and commercialize quality aesthetic products. Our proven execution, deep customer relationships, and expanding global platform position us to continue attracting high-quality assets from world-class partners as we build the next generation of injectable aesthetics. Our international business is also becoming an increasingly important contributor to our long-term strategy.

David Moatazedi: We also announced the expansion of our relationship with Symatese to include Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Strategically, this is an important milestone as we now hold exclusive rights to commercialize our injectable hyaluronic acid gel portfolio in every market where we maintain rights for Nuceiva while expanding our global addressable market by approximately $200 million annually. The combination of a broader portfolio and expanded geographical footprint make our international business an increasingly meaningful contributor to our long-term growth and revenue outlook.

Speaker #2: Thank you, David. Evolus is committed to building a best-in-class aesthetic portfolio. We started with Joveau, a neurotoxin manufactured under the high-pure manufacturing process, supported by Phase 3 data against the industry standard that was subsequently validated by an independent study demonstrating that Joveau had a fast onset, the highest peak effect, and the longest duration among the toxins tested.

Rui Avelar: Thank you, David. Evolus is committed to building a best-in-class aesthetic portfolio. We started with Jeuveau, a neurotoxin manufactured under the high pure manufacturing process, supported by phase III data against the industry standard that was subsequently validated by an independent study demonstrating that Jeuveau had a fast onset, the highest peak effect, and the longest duration among the toxins tested. We brought in Evolysse, a hyaluronic acid injectable manufactured with a novel Cold-X cross-linking technology. The pivotal registration studies demonstrated both non-inferiority and statistical superiority against an established comparator. The first two HA products, Evolysse Form and Smooth, have launched. Sculpt, our premium midface HA injectable, has an anticipated approval in Q4 and is expected to commercially launch in 2027. Evolysse Lips is on track to be submitted to the FDA by the end of this year with an anticipated launch in 2028.

Rui Avelar: Recently, we further expanded our portfolio and are very excited about the partnership with IBSA, the developer of Profhilo. IBSA is a private Swiss multinational pharmaceutical company founded in 1945 and operates across 10 therapeutic areas in over 90 countries worldwide. Profhilo is made of a unique blend of high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, and instead of the traditional cross-linking, it undergoes a patented thermal production process to create a hybrid matrix designed to address skin quality. With age, the components of skin break down and becomes less dynamic. Profhilo helps rebuild the quality of the skin. It stimulates extracellular remodeling, improves the elasticity of the skin and its supporting function by stimulating fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Evolus will lead the US clinical and regulatory approval process and then own the PMA. At this time, we anticipate approval around 2030 and will provide updates as the program progresses.

We achieved these results while continuing to invest in customer experience and education, Evolus Rewards, and the launch of the Estyme portfolio in Europe. Beginning with revenue, our global net revenue for Q2 was $84.1 million, representing an increase of 21% compared to the prior year.

As expected, the recent launch of Estyme in Europe contributed modestly during Q2. From a geographic standpoint, we continued to see balanced performance across both our US and international business. Jeuveau and Evolysse delivered another quarter of healthy growth, supported by improving procedure volumes and continued market share gains, while Evolus continued to build momentum through increasing customer adoption and reorder behavior. Turning to gross margin. Reported gross margin for Q2 was 68%, while adjusted gross margin, which excludes the amortization of intangibles, was 69%.

As a reminder, non-GAAP operating expenses exclude stock-based compensation, the revaluation of the contingent royalty obligation, and depreciation and amortization.

Speaker #1: Within operating expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter were $57.1 million, compared to $52.0 million in the first quarter. This included $5.2 million of non-cash, stock-based compensation, similar to the prior quarter.

Tatjana Mitchell: Within operating expenses, selling, general, and administrative expenses for Q2 were $57.1 million, compared to $52 million in Q1. This included $5.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation, similar to the prior quarter. In Q2, our adjusted EBITDA improved by $12.6 million compared to the prior year period, resulting in +$4.7 million adjusted EBITDA and marking our third consecutive quarter of +adjusted EBITDA. As we've discussed, our commercial infrastructure was intentionally built to support a broader portfolio. As additional products contribute to revenue, we expect that scalability to become increasingly evident through improving profitability. Turning to the balance sheet. We ended Q2 with $45.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $49.8 million at the end of Q1. Cash use during Q2 primarily reflected interest expense and planned capital expenditure investments.

Speaker #1: Cash used during the quarter primarily reflected interest expense, and planned capital expenditure investments. We believe that our cash position, profitability trajectory, and the capacity under our revolving credit facility provide ample financial flexibility to support our commercial priorities investing portfolio expansion and execute on our long-term growth strategy.

Tatjana Mitchell: We believe that our cash position, profitability trajectory, and the capacity under our revolving credit facility provide ample financial flexibility to support our commercial priorities, invest in portfolio expansion, and execute on our long-term growth strategy. We continue to have access to $100 million of additional liquidity under our Pharmakon debt facility which is intended for potential transformative business investments. As we've said previously, we remain funded to profitability and do not anticipate the need for additional equity financing. Another important point regarding the balance sheet. While our position on the announced tariffs remains unchanged, as a prudent measure, we expect to bring approximately 1 year's worth of Jeuveau inventory into the US. We will effectively be relocating Jeuveau safety stock from South Korea to the US.

Speaker #1: As we've said previously, we remain funded to profitability and do not anticipate the need for additional equity financing. Another important point regarding the balance sheet, while our position on the announced tariffs remains unchanged, as a proven measure, we expect to bring approximately one year's worth of Joveau inventory into the U.S.

Tatjana Mitchell: While our position on the announced tariffs remains unchanged, as a prudent measure, we expect to bring approximately 1 year's worth of Jeuveau inventory into the US. We will effectively be relocating Jeuveau safety stock from South Korea to the US. This will be reflected as an increase in inventory and an increase in accounts payable on our balance sheet, but will not impact our cash use given the negotiated payment terms. Turning now to guidance. Our H1 performance provides us with increased confidence in the trajectory of the business.

Tatjana Mitchell: This will be reflected as an increase in inventory and an increase in accounts payable on our balance sheet, but will not impact our cash use given the negotiated payment terms. Turning now to guidance. Our H1 performance provides us with increased confidence in the trajectory of the business. As a result, we are updating our full-year 2026 financial outlook. Through H1 2026, we delivered 14% year-over-year growth in revenue, exceeding the pace implied by our original full-year outlook. We are raising the lower end of our revenue guidance to $330 million, while maintaining the upper end of $337 million, effectively raising the midpoint of our guidance range to $333.5 million. We are also raising our full-year adjusted gross profit margin guidance to between 67.0% and 67.5%. This reflects our H1 performance and confidence in the margin trajectory of the business.

Speaker #1: But it will not impact our cash use, given the negotiated payment terms. Turning now to guidance, our first-half performance provides us with increased confidence in the trajectory of the business.

Speaker #1: As a result, we are updating our full-year 2026 financial outlook. Through the first six months of 2026, we delivered 14% year-over-year growth in revenue, exceeding the pace implied by our original full-year outlook.

Speaker #1: We are also raising our full year adjusted gross profit margin guidance to between $67.0 and $67.5%. This reflects our first half performance in confidence in the margin trajectory of the business.

Speaker #1: We are narrowing our non-GAAP operating expense guidance range to between $212 million to $216 million. This approach to expense management, while incorporating incremental strategic investments including upfront payments for the recently announced expansion of our esteemed partnership into Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

Tatjana Mitchell: We are narrowing our non-GAAP operating expense guidance range to between $212 million to $216 million. This reflects our continued disciplined approach to expense management while incorporating incremental strategic investments, including upfront payments for the recently announced expansion of our Estyme partnership into Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Our previously announced partnership with IBSA reflects the same disciplined, capital-efficient approach to business development with no upfront or milestone payments. As a result, we are reaffirming our low to mid-single digit adjusted EBITDA margin outlook for the full-year 2026. Finally, I'd like to emphasize that our long-term financial framework remains unchanged. We continue to believe Evolus is well positioned to achieve $450 million to $500 million in annual revenue and 13% to 15% adjusted EBITDA margin in 2028. The progress we have demonstrated over the past three quarters reinforces our confidence that we're on track to achieve these long-term objectives.

Speaker #2: Thank you, Tatjana. As you heard today, Evelus is on track to deliver our seventh consecutive year of above-market performance with double-digit top-line growth. And we've continued to gain market share for both Joveau and Evelus.

David Moatazedi: Thank you, Tatjana. As you heard today, Evolus is on track to deliver our seventh consecutive year of above-market performance with double-digit top-line growth. We've continued to gain market share for both Jeuveau and Evolysse. I'm particularly pleased with the debut and early success of our Evolus Portfolio Growth Bundle, which resulted in customers committing more of their injectable business to Evolus and driving the highest overall growth across our customer base. Over the past 18 months, we have transformed Evolus into a diversified injectable aesthetics company with three distinct growth verticals. We began by establishing Jeuveau as one of the fastest-growing neurotoxin brands in the market. Continued that momentum with the launch of Evolysse, the first new injectable hyaluronic acid gel in more than a decade. Most recently entered the skin quality space with Profhilo.

Speaker #4: Hi, guys. Thanks for taking my question. Congratulations on a good quarter. I'm really interested in your new licensing of the Profylo for skin quality, as usual, in the U.S.

Operator 2: Hi, guys. Thanks for taking my question. Congratulations on a good quarter. I'm really interested in your new licensing of Profhilo for skin quality. As usual, US is catching up with international markets. I want to understand this product a little better. What is it going to require clinically to get on the market here? Do you still expect to maintain profitability with the additional R&D here? Second, would you view this maybe, I guess, a little bit more like a filler light to perhaps expand a category or be a sort of gateway into fillers? Or is this a completely different market, different price point, different commitment altogether?

Speaker #4: Do you still expect to maintain profitability with the additional R&D here? And second, would you view this maybe, I guess, a little bit more like a filler-lite to perhaps expand a category, or be a sort of gateway into fillers?

Speaker #4: Or is this a completely different market, different price point, different commitment altogether?

Speaker #2: Great. Annabelle, thanks for the questions. I'll have Rui comment on the clinical development, and then Tatjana comment on the expense associated with Profylo. I'll just open with this: last weekend, we had an advisory board meeting with a number of key customers from both the U.S.

David Moatazedi: Great. Annabel, thanks for the questions. I'll have Rui comment on the clinical development and then Tatjana comment on the expense associated with Profhilo. I'll just open with this. Last weekend, we had an advisory board meeting with a number of key customers from both the US and international markets. Interestingly, the US doctors were all very well aware of Profhilo. They've heard of this brand because it's well known as the gold standard for skin quality. The international doctors made a simple comment. They use toxins to relax muscle. You use our injectable hyaluronic acid gels like Evolysse to replace lost volume in the tissue, and products like Profhilo are used as more like a moisturizer on the skin surface. It's not adding volume, it's changing the overall texture of the skin.

David Moatazedi: Great. Annabel, thanks for the questions. I'll have Rui comment on the clinical development and then Tatjana comment on the expense associated with Profhilo. I'll just open with this. Last weekend, we had an advisory board meeting with a number of key customers from both the US and international markets.

Speaker #2: and international markets. Interestingly, the U.S. doctors were all very well aware of Profhilo. They've heard of this brand because it's well known as the gold standard for skin quality.

Speaker #2: And the international doctors made a simple comment. They used toxins to relax muscle. You use our injectable hyaluronic acid gels like Evelus to replace lost volume.

David Moatazedi: You use our injectable hyaluronic acid gels like Evolysse to replace lost volume in the tissue, and products like Profhilo are used as more like a moisturizer on the skin surface.

Speaker #2: In the tissue. And products like Profhilo are used more like a moisturizer on the skin surface. So it's not adding volume; it's changing the overall texture of the skin.

Speaker #2: So I'll let Rui talk a little bit more about the clinical development and what you would see going.

David Moatazedi: I'll let Rui talk a little bit more about the clinical development and what he's going through.

Speaker #5: Sure. Maybe I'll touch on kind of what you also touched on. It is a different product when we think about HAs, the mechanism of action is they take up space.

Rui Avelar: Sure. Maybe I'll touch on what you also touched on. It is a different product. When we think about HAs, the mechanism of action is they take up space. That's why they're regulated as a device. This is a different way of actually creating an HA gel. As I mentioned, it doesn't undergo the traditional cross-linking. It has a special thermal process, you end up with these light hydrogen bonds. What it does is it actually hydrates the skin internally. What you do is you actually put it in, if you look at the DFU from Europe, you can actually see where the injection points are correlate where the skin quality is deteriorating. The skin turgor's low, there's more redundancy and looseness, even the skin tone is low. Those are all components of skin quality, this is what this works on.

Rui Avelar: Sure. Maybe I'll touch on what you also touched on. It is a different product. When we think about HAs, the mechanism of action is they take up space. That's why they're regulated as a device. This is a different way of actually creating an HA gel. As I mentioned, it doesn't undergo the traditional cross-linking. It has a special thermal process, you end up with these light hydrogen bonds. What it does is it actually hydrates the skin internally.

Speaker #5: And that's why it's regulated as a device. This is a different way of actually creating an HA gel. As I mentioned, it doesn't undergo the traditional cross-linking.

Speaker #5: It has like a special thermal processing. You end up with these light hydrogen bonds. And what it does is it actually hydrates the skin internally.

Speaker #5: So what you do is, you actually put it in. And if you look at kind of the DFU from Europe, you can actually see where the injection points are and correlate where the skin quality is deteriorating.

Rui Avelar: What you do is you actually put it in, if you look at the DFU from Europe, you can actually see where the injection points are correlate where the skin quality is deteriorating. The skin turgor's low, there's more redundancy and looseness, even the skin tone is low. Those are all components of skin quality, this is what this works on. Mechanistically, it works effectively by hydrating the skin from within. In terms of the process and how we get it through, this will be a full PMA.

Speaker #5: The skin turgor is low. There's kind of more redundancy and looseness in even the skin tone is low. Those are all components of skin quality.

Speaker #5: And this is what this works on. So mechanistically works effectively by hydrating the skin from within. In terms of the process and how we get it through, this will be a full PMA.

Rui Avelar: Mechanistically, it works effectively by hydrating the skin from within. In terms of the process and how we get it through, this will be a full PMA. It's considered a class 3 device, it will go through a full PMA process, which is where we tie in those timelines of, we're talking about 2030 right now. I think I've captured most of your components, Annabel.

Speaker #5: It's a considered a class three device. And it will go through a full PMA process, which is where we kind of tie in those timelines of we're talking about 2030 right now.

Rui Avelar: It's considered a class 3 device, it will go through a full PMA process, which is where we tie in those timelines of, we're talking about 2030 right now. I think I've captured most of your components, Annabel.

Speaker #5: I think I've captured most of your components, Annabelle.

Speaker #1: Great. And maybe I will add

Tatjana Mitchell: Great. Maybe I will add.

Tatjana Mitchell: Great. Maybe I will add.

Speaker #4: Sorry, go ahead.

Annabel Samimy: Sorry, go ahead

Annabel Samimy: Sorry, go ahead

Speaker #1: I will just add on the question around does this impact profitability. And the short answer is no. Rui and his team have a great track record and will be supporting the clinical development and regulatory approval of this product.

Tatjana Mitchell: I will just add on the question around, does this impact profitability? The short answer is no. Rui and his team have a great track record and will be supporting the clinical development and regulatory approval of this product. This is already contemplated in our guidance for EBITDA to 2028 of 13% to 15%.

Tatjana Mitchell: I will just add on the question around, does this impact profitability? The short answer is no. Rui and his team have a great track record and will be supporting the clinical development and regulatory approval of this product. This is already contemplated in our guidance for EBITDA to 2028 of 13% to 15%.

Speaker #1: And this is already contemplated in our guidance for adjusted EBITDA to 2028 of 13 to 15%.

Speaker #4: Got it. And if I can just ask a follow-up, can you talk about—I mean, I heard in your comments how you're feeling about the state of the filler market.

Operator 2: Got it. If I could just ask a follow-up. Can you talk about, I heard in your comments how you're feeling about the state of the filler market. It does look like we've got a bit of a tale of two cities here with, I guess one player seeing declines and other players seeing stabilization. What are you seeing as far as interest level and, I guess, being a new player on the market, do you feel like you're reframing the conversation around fillers right now and any impact that you're seeing yet from GLP-1s? I know that Galderma is starting to talk about it, so how are you seeing that play out in the market?

Annabel Samimy: Got it. If I could just ask a follow-up. Can you talk about, I heard in your comments how you're feeling about the state of the filler market. It does look like we've got a bit of a tale of two cities here with, I guess one player seeing declines and other players seeing stabilization. What are you seeing as far as interest level and, I guess, being a new player on the market, do you feel like you're reframing the conversation around fillers right now and any impact that you're seeing yet from GLP-1s?

Speaker #4: What are you seeing as far as interest level, and I guess, being a new player on the market, do you feel like you're reframing the conversation around fillers right now?

Speaker #4: And any impact that you're seeing yet from GLP-1s? I know the Galderma is starting to talk about it. So how are you seeing that play out in the market?

Speaker #2: Yeah. This is David. Overall, we're hearing improving conditions from clinicians all around in the HA market specifically. In our case, as you saw the step up in Q2, part of that was driven by our ability to talk about these weight loss patients and we've incorporated that into our co-branded media and we saw a lot of interest from accounts that want to capitalize on what they're seeing, which is increasing number of GLP-1 patients coming into their clinics.

David Moatazedi: Yeah, this is David. Overall, we're hearing improving conditions from clinicians all around in the HA market specifically. In our case, as you saw the step-up in Q2, part of that was driven by our ability to talk about these weight loss patients. We've incorporated that into our co-branded media. We saw a lot of interest from accounts that want to capitalize on what they're seeing, which is the increasing number of GLP-1 patients coming into their clinics and the ability to advertise to that segment with Evolysse, and the mention of weight loss that we currently have in our patient label. We've been able to capitalize on it.

David Moatazedi: Yeah, this is David. Overall, we're hearing improving conditions from clinicians all around in the HA market specifically. In our case, as you saw the step-up in Q2, part of that was driven by our ability to talk about these weight loss patients. We've incorporated that into our co-branded media.

We've been able to capitalize on it.

Speaker #2: And the ability to advertise to that segment with Evolus and the dimension of weight loss that we currently have in our patient label. So we've been able to capitalize on it.

Speaker #2: We do believe it's still very early innings for both the market recovery and GLP patients entering clinics. But that's exactly where these practices are focused.

David Moatazedi: We do believe it's a very early innings of both the market recovery and that GLP-1 patient entering clinics, but that's exactly where these practices are focused, and that's something we'll continue to take advantage of as we get into the back half of the year, as that's a unique differentiation in the Evolysse line from a consumer standpoint.

David Moatazedi: We do believe it's a very early innings of both the market recovery and that GLP-1 patient entering clinics, but that's exactly where these practices are focused, and that's something we'll continue to take advantage of as we get into the back half of the year, as that's a unique differentiation in the Evolysse line from a consumer standpoint.

Speaker #2: And that's something we'll continue to take advantage of as we get into the back half of the year, as that's a unique differentiation in the Evolus line from a consumer standpoint.

Speaker #4: Great. Thank you.

Operator 2: Great. Thank you.

Annabel Samimy: Great. Thank you.

Speaker #3: Our next question is from Mark Goodman with Lyring Partners. Please proceed.

Operator 4: Our next question is from Marc Goodman with Leerink Partners. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Marc Goodman with Leerink Partners. Please proceed.

Speaker #6: Yeah. Just one additional question on this Profylo. Is it safe to use that product at the same time as a filler and at the same time as Truvot?

Marc Goodman: Yeah, just one additional question on this Profhilo. Is it safe to use that product at the same time as a filler and at the same time as Jeuveau? I'm just wondering if you need studies to show that it's safe, or is it just going to be well understood by the doctors? Second question is just on the performance of the toxin market just throughout the quarter. Was it improving throughout the quarter and July is a continuation of that improvement? Was it steady? I'm just trying to get a sense of what has been going on this year. I think you said at the Q1, you thought that the market grew low to mid, and now you're saying the Q2 was mid, so it does feel like it's getting better as time goes on.

Marc Goodman: Yeah, just one additional question on this Profhilo. Is it safe to use that product at the same time as a filler and at the same time as Jeuveau? I'm just wondering if you need studies to show that it's safe, or is it just going to be well understood by the doctors? Second question is just on the performance of the toxin market just throughout the quarter. Was it improving throughout the quarter and July is a continuation of that improvement? Was it steady? I'm just trying to get a sense of what has been going on this year.

Speaker #6: I was just wondering if you need studies to kind of show that it's safe or is it just going to be well understood by the doctors?

Speaker #6: And then, second question is just on the performance of the toxin market throughout the quarter. Was it improving throughout the quarter, and is July a continuation of that improvement?

Speaker #6: Was it kind of steady throughout the I'm just trying to get a sense of like what has been going on this year? I think you said at the first quarter you thought that the market grew low to mid and now you're saying the second quarter was mid.

Marc Goodman: I think you said at the Q1, you thought that the market grew low to mid, and now you're saying the Q2 was mid, so it does feel like it's getting better as time goes on. Just wondering if you're seeing that improvement into July as well. Thanks.

Speaker #6: So it does feel like it's getting better as time goes on. Just wondering if you're seeing that improvement into July as well. Thanks.

Marc Goodman: Just wondering if you're seeing that improvement into July as well. Thanks.

Rui Avelar: Hi, Marc. I'll start with your question. Yes, when you look at where this is used, they're used simultaneously with the other products. This product is put into, if you will, more superficially in the skin, if we think about how it works. If you look at a toxin, that usually goes into a muscle, so it's a different layer. Generally, when you're using an HA injectable and you're trying to take up space for a wrinkle or fold, that's usually put in a different plane. We see them used quite similarly. If we think about part of the reason why there was a lot of excitement here in the US as we had our advisory board is they really like the concept of the cadence of this product.

Speaker #5: Hi, Mark. I'll start with your question. Yes, when you look at where this is used, they are used simultaneously with the other products. So this product is put into, if you will, more superficially in the skin if we think about how it works.

Speaker #5: If you look at a toxin that usually goes into a muscle, so it's a different layer. And generally, when you're using an HA injectable and you're trying to take up space for a wrinkle or fold, that's usually put in a different plane.

Speaker #5: So we see them used quite similarly. And then, if we think about part of the reason why there was a lot of excitement here in the US, it's because we had our advisory board, and they really like the concept of the cadence of this product.

Rui Avelar: We see them used quite similarly. If we think about part of the reason why there was a lot of excitement here in the US as we had our advisory board is they really like the concept of the cadence of this product. It brings patients in with another excuse to get a treatment, and then it helps them with managing the other treatments such as HA injectables and toxins. It's a very synergistic treatment for all the stuff that we currently offer.

Rui Avelar: It brings patients in with another excuse to get a treatment, and then it helps them with managing the other treatments such as HA injectables and toxins. It's a very synergistic treatment for all the stuff that we currently offer.

Speaker #5: It brings patients in with another excuse to get a treatment. And then it helps them with kind of managing the other treatments such as HA injectables and toxins.

Speaker #5: So it's a very synergistic treatment for all the stuff that we currently offer.

Speaker #2: That's right. As a matter of fact, when we had conversations with the team at Profylo, they did not view hyaluronic acid injectable products as competitors.

David Moatazedi: That's right. As a matter of fact, when we had conversations with the team at Profhilo, they did not view hyaluronic acid injectable products as competitors. They very much viewed them as complementary in the European market and had a lot of success with that. Going to your second question, Marc, we saw a sequential improvement in the market. You see that reflected in both toxin procedures, HAs turning to positive growth. Underneath that, we're also seeing that segments of the consumer are also strengthening, and that younger demographic, which is well into her 40s now, the Millennial, the Gen Z, they both show that their spend on beauty and healthcare is only rising, and we do believe that contributes, and we expect that to carry forward into the back half of the year.

David Moatazedi: That's right. As a matter of fact, when we had conversations with the team at Profhilo, they did not view hyaluronic acid injectable products as competitors. They very much viewed them as complementary in the European market and had a lot of success with that. Going to your second question, Marc, we saw a sequential improvement in the market. You see that reflected in both toxin procedures, HAs turning to positive growth.

Speaker #2: They very much view them as complementary in the European market and had a lot of success with that. And then going to your second question, Mark, we saw a sequential improvement in the market.

Speaker #2: You see that reflected in both toxin procedures and HAs turning to positive growth. Underneath that, we're also seeing that segments of the consumer are strengthening as well.

David Moatazedi: Underneath that, we're also seeing that segments of the consumer are also strengthening, and that younger demographic, which is well into her 40s now, the Millennial, the Gen Z, they both show that their spend on beauty and healthcare is only rising, and we do believe that contributes, and we expect that to carry forward into the back half of the year. We have no reason to believe that the momentum doesn't continue, and that's reflected in the guidance that we've provided.

Speaker #2: And that younger demographic, which is well into her 40s now, the millennial, the Gen Z, they both show that they're spend on beauty and healthcare is only rising.

Speaker #2: And we do believe that contributes. And we expect that to carry forward into the back half of the year. So we have no reason to believe that the momentum doesn't continue and that's reflected in the guidance that we provide.

David Moatazedi: We have no reason to believe that the momentum doesn't continue, and that's reflected in the guidance that we've provided.

Speaker #6: Thanks.

Marc Goodman: Thanks.

Marc Goodman: Thanks.

Speaker #3: Our next question is from Navanthai with BNB Parabus Asset Management. Please proceed.

Operator 4: Our next question is from Navann Ty with BNP Paribas Exane. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Navann Ty with BNP Paribas Exane. Please proceed.

Navann Ty: Hi. Question on your market commentary, which sounded more positive than the market leaders. Can you clarify whether the comments are US or global, for toxins and fillers? If possible, can you let us know your current US and global market shares in toxins and fillers and what drove the significant share gains? Thank you.

Navann Ty: Hi. Question on your market commentary, which sounded more positive than the market leaders. Can you clarify whether the comments are US or global, for toxins and fillers? If possible, can you let us know your current US and global market shares in toxins and fillers and what drove the significant share gains? Thank you.

Speaker #7: Hi, a question on your market commentary, which sounded more positive than the market leaders. So, can you clarify whether the comments are US or global for toxins?

Speaker #7: And fillers, and if possible, can you let us know your current U.S. and global market shares in toxins and fillers, and what drove the significant share gains?

Speaker #7: Thank you.

Speaker #2: Sure. As far as the two markets, we've seen Europe over the past several years. We did not see a slowdown, and coming into this year, we continue to see a healthy market environment.

David Moatazedi: Sure. As far as the two markets, we've seen Europe over the past several years, we did not see a slowdown. Coming into this year, we continue to see a healthy market environment. Now, HAs, of course, in both US and Europe, did see a dip, in both markets, we're seeing an improvement. It's hard for us to gauge whether Europe is in positive growth or in some stage of improvement, but it is consistently the same messaging that we hear back from clinicians that they see the HA market strengthening off of several years of the market being depressed. We feel good that these markets are moving, let's call it, roughly in parallel with one another. As it relates to shares, we entered the year with roughly mid-teens market share. We expect to continue in that mid-teens range.

David Moatazedi: Sure. As far as the two markets, we've seen Europe over the past several years, we did not see a slowdown. Coming into this year, we continue to see a healthy market environment. Now, HAs, of course, in both US and Europe, did see a dip, in both markets, we're seeing an improvement. It's hard for us to gauge whether Europe is in positive growth or in some stage of improvement, but it is consistently the same messaging that we hear back from clinicians that they see the HA market strengthening off of several years of the market being depressed.

Speaker #2: Now, HAs, of course, in both US and Europe, did see a dip and in both markets, we're seeing an improvement. It's hard for us to gauge whether Europe is in positive growth or in some stage of improvement, but it is consistently the same messaging that we hear back from clinicians that they see the HA market strengthening off of several years of the market being depressed.

Speaker #2: So we feel good that these markets are moving, let's call it, roughly in parallel with one another. And then, as it relates to share, we entered the year with roughly mid-teens market share.

David Moatazedi: We feel good that these markets are moving, let's call it, roughly in parallel with one another. As it relates to shares, we entered the year with roughly mid-teens market share. We expect to continue in that mid-teens range. It's hard to pin a share on an exact quarter, but clearly our share is strengthening. We see that in the numbers reflected year to date, our business growing at a healthy double-digit clip in the US. The same is the case on the filler side. Now in Europe, on the toxin side, we've just reestablished a position in a couple of major markets in Europe, so it's too early for us to be giving a view on share.

Speaker #2: We expect to continue in that mid-teens range. It's hard to pin a share on an exact quarter, but clearly our share is strengthening. We see that in the numbers reflected.

David Moatazedi: It's hard to pin a share on an exact quarter, but clearly our share is strengthening. We see that in the numbers reflected year to date, our business growing at a healthy double-digit clip in the US. The same is the case on the filler side. Now in Europe, on the toxin side, we've just reestablished a position in a couple of major markets in Europe, so it's too early for us to be giving a view on share. Although we do say that in the UK, which is our most established market this year, we are getting really close to that double-digit market share, which is an important metric for us that we continue to track because they were the lead market to enter inside of Europe and the UK.

Speaker #2: Year to date, our business growing at a healthy double-digit clip in the US. And the same is the case on the filler side. Now, in Europe, on the toxin side, we've just reestablished a position in a couple of the major markets in Europe.

Speaker #2: So it's too early for us to be giving a view on share, although we do say that in the UK, which is our most established market, this year we are getting really close to that double-digit market share, which is an important metric for us that we continue to track because they were the lead market to enter inside of Europe and the UK.

David Moatazedi: Although we do say that in the UK, which is our most established market this year, we are getting really close to that double-digit market share, which is an important metric for us that we continue to track because they were the lead market to enter inside of Europe and the UK. That continues to be a strong market lead for us and we're seeing the markets that followed after UK continuing to strengthen in terms of their revenue, and that's why the international business has been such an important growth driver for us.

Speaker #2: So that continues to be a strong market lead for us. And we're seeing the markets that followed after UK continuing to strengthen in terms of their revenue.

David Moatazedi: That continues to be a strong market lead for us and we're seeing the markets that followed after UK continuing to strengthen in terms of their revenue, and that's why the international business has been such an important growth driver for us.

Speaker #2: And that's why the international business has been such an important growth driver for us.

Speaker #3: Thank you. Our next question is from Doug Sow with HC Wainwright. Please proceed.

Navann Ty: Thank you.

Navann Ty: Thank you.

Operator 4: Our next question is from Doug Tsao with H.C. Wainwright. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Doug Tsao with H.C. Wainwright. Please proceed.

Speaker #8: Hi. Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions. Just maybe trying to understand what we're seeing or maybe if you could help us understand how you think the Evelisse line sort of growth should go.

Doug Tsao: Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions. Maybe trying to understand what we're seeing, or maybe if you could help us understand how you think the Evolus line sort of growth should go. We've obviously seen some nice sequential growth on percent basis. It's still off a relatively smaller base. Given some of the macro dynamics, I know you've sort of guided to 10% to 12% of the total revenues for this year. Do you see 2027 as being a more important year with the additions of new products to the portfolio? Thank you.

Doug Tsao: Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions. Maybe trying to understand what we're seeing, or maybe if you could help us understand how you think the Evolus line sort of growth should go. We've obviously seen some nice sequential growth on percent basis. It's still off a relatively smaller base. Given some of the macro dynamics, I know you've sort of guided to 10% to 12% of the total revenues for this year. Do you see 2027 as being a more important year with the additions of new products to the portfolio? Thank you.

Speaker #8: We've obviously seen some nice sequential growth on percent basis. It's still awful relatively smaller base. Just given some of the macro dynamics, I know you've sort of guided to 10% to 12% of the total revenues for this year.

Speaker #8: Do you see 2027 as being a more important year just with the additions of new products to the portfolio? Thank you.

Speaker #2: Yeah. Well, Doug, I think the way we look at the Evelisse line is it's a very important part of building out a portfolio strategy that we competed as a single product up until the second quarter of last year for six consecutive years.

David Moatazedi: Well, Doug, I think, the way we look at the Evolus line is it's a very important part of building out a portfolio strategy that we've competed as a single product up until the Q2 of last year for 6 consecutive years, and established a meaningful presence in the aesthetic space on that single product. Evolus is clearly opening the door for us to go into clinics and have a deeper partnership with them. As a matter of fact, when we look at accounts that purchase both Jeuveau and Evolus together, they're purchasing two and a half times greater volume year to date than accounts that are only purchasing one product. Clearly, Evolus is an important next stage in us telling the portfolio story, that's not it.

David Moatazedi: Well, Doug, I think, the way we look at the Evolus line is it's a very important part of building out a portfolio strategy that we've competed as a single product up until the Q2 of last year for 6 consecutive years, and established a meaningful presence in the aesthetic space on that single product. Evolus is clearly opening the door for us to go into clinics and have a deeper partnership with them. As a matter of fact, when we look at accounts that purchase both Jeuveau and Evolus together, they're purchasing two and a half times greater volume year to date than accounts that are only purchasing one product.

Speaker #2: And established a meaningful presence in the aesthetic space on that single product. Evelisse is clearly opening the door for us to go into clinics and have a deeper partnership with them.

Speaker #2: As a matter of fact, when we look at accounts that purchased both Jeuveau and Evelisse together, they're purchasing two and a half times greater volume year to date than accounts that are only purchasing one product.

Speaker #2: So clearly, Evelisse is an important next stage in us telling the portfolio story. But that's not it. The announcement of Profylo has added another dimension to the conversations we're having with clinicians.

David Moatazedi: Clearly, Evolus is an important next stage in us telling the portfolio story, that's not it. The announcement of Profhilo has added another dimension to the conversations we're having with clinicians, because that signals even further investment into the category and developing new innovation. Between now and Profhilo, as you know, we have the upcoming approval of Sculpt, which we do believe is a flagship product in that line. It puts us in a place where we can compete against the broader portfolios of the larger established players. In addition to that, the following year, we expect to improve the Evolysse Lips.

David Moatazedi: The announcement of Profhilo has added another dimension to the conversations we're having with clinicians, because that signals even further investment into the category and developing new innovation. Between now and Profhilo, as you know, we have the upcoming approval of Sculpt, which we do believe is a flagship product in that line. It puts us in a place where we can compete against the broader portfolios of the larger established players. In addition to that, the following year, we expect to improve the Evolysse Lips. When I look at our pipeline over the next 4 years, we're going to introduce 3 more new products. I'm really excited about what we're going to be able to bring customers over the coming years.

Speaker #2: Because that signals even further investment into the category and developing new innovation. And then between now and Profylo, as you know, we have the upcoming approval of Sculpt, which we do believe is a flagship product in that line.

Speaker #2: It puts us in a place where we can compete against the broader portfolios of the larger established players. In addition to that, the following year, we expect to improve the lip product.

Speaker #2: So when I look at our pipeline over the next four years, we're going to introduce three more new products. So I'm really excited about what we're going to be able to bring customers over the coming years.

David Moatazedi: When I look at our pipeline over the next 4 years, we're going to introduce 3 more new products. I'm really excited about what we're going to be able to bring customers over the coming years. More importantly, we've got to execute in the near term, and I think the operating leverage we've been able to demonstrate without compromising growth is a reason why we've been able to grow double digits in both the US and international.

Speaker #2: But more importantly, we've got to execute in the near term. And I think the operating leverage we've been able to demonstrate without compromising growth is the reason why we've been able to grow double digits in both the US and international.

David Moatazedi: More importantly, we've got to execute in the near term, and I think the operating leverage we've been able to demonstrate without compromising growth is a reason why we've been able to grow double digits in both the US and international.

Speaker #8: And David, just as a follow-up on the Profylo, sort of bringing that into the portfolio, you had spoken for some time about being interested in biostimulators.

Doug Tsao: David, just as a follow-up on the Profhilo, sort of bringing that into the portfolio. You had spoken for some time about being interested in biostimulators. I guess, Profhilo is kind of a biostimulator. Do you see that as sort of filling that sort of interest that you had, or do you think that you might still be looking at the biostimulator space as something that might be interesting from a product standpoint? Or are there other products that you could see that could be complementary to Profhilo?

Doug Tsao: David, just as a follow-up on the Profhilo, sort of bringing that into the portfolio. You had spoken for some time about being interested in biostimulators. I guess, Profhilo is kind of a biostimulator. Do you see that as sort of filling that sort of interest that you had, or do you think that you might still be looking at the biostimulator space as something that might be interesting from a product standpoint? Or are there other products that you could see that could be complementary to Profhilo?

Speaker #8: And I guess Profylo is kind of a biostimulator. So do you see that as sort of dealing that sort of interest that you had or do you think that you might still be looking at the biostimulator space as something that might be interesting from a product standpoint?

Speaker #8: Or are there other products that you could see that could be complementary to Profylo?

Speaker #5: I'll jump in on that one. Doug, what we've been talking about in particular on the R&D front and business development front are three big categories.

Rui Avelar: I'll jump in on that one, Doug. What we've been talking about, in particular on the R&D front and business development front, there's three big categories. One was skin quality, and we put that in its own category. That's Profhilo. The other one that we've talked about that we have high interest in is hair, which of course is a separate category. The third one, we put it in its own category as we think about mechanistically, is biostimulators. We've really highlighted three of them. One, we just checked that box. The other two, we continue to work on.

Rui Avelar: I'll jump in on that one, Doug. What we've been talking about, in particular on the R&D front and business development front, there's three big categories. One was skin quality, and we put that in its own category. That's Profhilo. The other one that we've talked about that we have high interest in is hair, which of course is a separate category. The third one, we put it in its own category as we think about mechanistically, is biostimulators. We've really highlighted three of them. One, we just checked that box. The other two, we continue to work on.

Speaker #5: One was skin quality, and we put that in its own category. That's Profylo. The other one that we've talked about that we have high interest in is hair.

Speaker #5: Which, of course, is a separate category. And then the third one, and we put it in its own category as we think about mechanistically, is biostimulators.

Speaker #5: So we've really highlighted three of them. One, we just checked that box. And then the other two, we continue to work on.

Speaker #8: Okay, great. Thank you so much.

Doug Tsao: Okay, great. Thank you so much.

Doug Tsao: Okay, great. Thank you so much.

Speaker #3: Our next question is from Sam Eiler with US Bank Corp BTIG. Please proceed.

Operator 4: Our next question is from Sam Eiber with BTIG. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Sam Eiber with BTIG. Please proceed.

Speaker #8: Hi, good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions here. Just to start out, it's a little bit of a higher-level question, but you're ramping on Evelisse in the US.

Sam Eiber: Hi, good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions here. Just to start out, it's a little bit of a higher-level question. You're ramping on Evolus in the US, expanding OUS with the new Symatese agreement. You signed this Profhilo agreement. Just talk about your ability to execute against all of these initiatives and your own bandwidth, particularly when it comes to still achieving your profitability targets.

Sam Eiber: Hi, good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions here. Just to start out, it's a little bit of a higher-level question. You're ramping on Evolus in the US, expanding OUS with the new Symatese agreement. You signed this Profhilo agreement. Just talk about your ability to execute against all of these initiatives and your own bandwidth, particularly when it comes to still achieving your profitability targets.

Speaker #8: Expanding OUS with the new Symmetase agreement, you signed this Profylo agreement. Maybe just talk about your ability to execute against all of these initiatives and your own bandwidth, particularly when it comes to still achieving your profitability targets.

Speaker #2: Yeah. So maybe I'll divide that up and let both Tatjana and Rui comment on it. So I think when you talk about our ability to execute, I think about it on three levels.

David Moatazedi: Yeah. Maybe I'll divide that up and let both Tatjana and Rui comment on it. I think when you talk about our ability to execute, I think about it on three levels. One is our ability to commercially execute. The second part is, can we get these drugs through the development program? Lastly, how do we fund them all collectively as you think about our long-term outlook? I'll just start with commercial execution before Rui gets into the pipeline. We've got a great commercial team. You've seen the performance on Evolus in its first year in what's been a challenged HA market, and we've been the fastest share gainer in that space with that product, and we still have several more to go. The cadence of these approvals that we expect put us in a really strong position.

David Moatazedi: Yeah. Maybe I'll divide that up and let both Tatjana and Rui comment on it. I think when you talk about our ability to execute, I think about it on three levels. One is our ability to commercially execute. The second part is, can we get these drugs through the development program? Lastly, how do we fund them all collectively as you think about our long-term outlook? I'll just start with commercial execution before Rui gets into the pipeline. We've got a great commercial team.

Speaker #2: One is our ability to commercially execute. And then the second part is, can we get these drugs through the development program? And then lastly, how do we fund them all collectively as you think about our long-term outlook?

Speaker #2: I'll just start with commercial execution before Rui gets into the pipeline. Look, we've got a great commercial team. You've seen the performance on Evelisse in its first year.

David Moatazedi: You've seen the performance on Evolus in its first year in what's been a challenged HA market, and we've been the fastest share gainer in that space with that product, and we still have several more to go. The cadence of these approvals that we expect put us in a really strong position. As I mentioned earlier, as you think about the next four years, you're talking about three product launches over that time window that are all facial injectable products that drop into the same bag, that are injected by the same clinician.

Speaker #2: And what's been a challenge to HA market, and we've been the fastest share gainer in that space with that product. And we still have several more to go.

Speaker #2: But the cadence of these approvals that we expect put us in a really strong position. As I mentioned earlier, as you think about the next four years, you're talking about three product launches over that time window that are all facial injectable products that drop into the same bag that are injected by the same clinicians.

David Moatazedi: As I mentioned earlier, as you think about the next four years, you're talking about three product launches over that time window that are all facial injectable products that drop into the same bag, that are injected by the same clinician. In our view, it only strengthens our message in front of the customer to continue to have that cadence of new products to build around our portfolio strategy. I'll let Rui talk about the development pathways.

Speaker #2: So in our view, it only strengthens our message in front of the customer to continue to have that cadence of new products to build around our portfolio strategy.

David Moatazedi: In our view, it only strengthens our message in front of the customer to continue to have that cadence of new products to build around our portfolio strategy. I'll let Rui talk about the development pathways.

Speaker #2: And I'll let Rui talk about the development pathways.

Speaker #5: Yeah. And your question was really aimed at how do we manage the development pathways and etc. And I think David's comments are kind of fitting also for R&D.

Rui Avelar: Yeah, your question was really aimed at how do we manage the development pathways and et cetera. I think David's comments are kind of fitting also for R&D. There's a cadence. If we look at Evolysse Sculpt, hopefully that's towards the end of its process. Ellanse is in a different part of the development. Profhilo is in a different part of the development. If we can execute on some of the other deals, like we were saying hair, for instance, they're all in different parts of development. If we look at our internal capabilities, we have a really skilled group that focuses on late-stage development. That's a lot of our expertise. All of this really fits in our wheelhouse.

Rui Avelar: Yeah, your question was really aimed at how do we manage the development pathways and et cetera. I think David's comments are kind of fitting also for R&D. There's a cadence. If we look at Evolysse Sculpt, hopefully that's towards the end of its process. Ellanse is in a different part of the development. Profhilo is in a different part of the development. If we can execute on some of the other deals, like we were saying hair, for instance, they're all in different parts of development. If we look at our internal capabilities, we have a really skilled group that focuses on late-stage development.

Speaker #5: There's a cadence. If we look at Sculpt, hopefully that's toward the end of its process. Lips is in a different part of the development.

Speaker #5: Profylo is in a different part of development. And then if we can execute on some of the other deals, like we were saying—hair, for instance—they're all in different parts of development.

Speaker #5: And if we look at our internal capabilities, we have a really skilled group that focuses on late-stage development. That's where a lot of our expertise lies.

Rui Avelar: That's a lot of our expertise. All of this really fits in our wheelhouse. We think looking at the cadence of the things that we're targeting, we're able to maintain our expenses, at least on the R&D side, just as we've suggested and shared with you previously.

Speaker #5: So all of this really fits in our wheelhouse. So we think looking at the cadence of the things that we're targeting, we're able to maintain kind of our expenses, at least on the R&D side, kind of just as we've suggested and shared with you previously.

Rui Avelar: We think looking at the cadence of the things that we're targeting, we're able to maintain our expenses, at least on the R&D side, just as we've suggested and shared with you previously.

Speaker #6: Yeah. And maybe I'll chime in to the last part of your questions, Anne. So we had talked about 2025 really being an investment year.

Tatjana Mitchell: Yeah. Maybe I'll chime into the last part of your question, Sam. We had talked about 2025 really being an investment year. In 2025, we really set up our commercial infrastructure, both in the United States and internationally, to sell the portfolio. That's really important. We have great talent in that commercial organization. Rui just talked about his team. Similar comment, right? We have great talent and a great track record there in terms of taking these assets through their development journey. In terms of our capital efficiency, you just heard us talking about expansion geography with Symatese. We talked about the IBSA deal, very capital efficient. Across the board, whether it's balance sheet or we're looking at our OPEX, right, we feel very confident in being able to deliver on this pipeline here and more.

Tatjana Mitchell: Yeah. Maybe I'll chime into the last part of your question, Sam. We had talked about 2025 really being an investment year. In 2025, we really set up our commercial infrastructure, both in the United States and internationally, to sell the portfolio. That's really important. We have great talent in that commercial organization. Rui just talked about his team. Similar comment, right? We have great talent and a great track record there in terms of taking these assets through their development journey. In terms of our capital efficiency, you just heard us talking about expansion geography with Symatese.

Speaker #6: And in 2025, we really set up our commercial infrastructure, both in the United States and internationally, to sell the portfolio. And that's really important.

Speaker #6: We have great talent in that commercial organization. Rui just talked about his team. Similar comment, right? We have great talent and a great track record there, in terms of taking these assets through their development journey.

Speaker #6: And in terms of our capital efficiency, you just heard us talking about expansion geography with Symmetase. We talked about the IPSA deal. Very capital efficient.

Tatjana Mitchell: We talked about the IBSA deal, very capital efficient. Across the board, whether it's balance sheet or we're looking at our OPEX, right, we feel very confident in being able to deliver on this pipeline here and more.

Speaker #6: So, across the board, whether it's the balance sheet or we're looking at our opex, we feel very confident in being able to deliver on this pipeline here and more.

Speaker #8: Okay. Really helpful there. Maybe if I could just squeeze in a follow-up here. On the second half outlook and how we should be thinking about cadence, any seasonality, in terms of modeling considerations for the toxin business.

Sam Eiber: Okay. Really helpful there. Maybe if I could just squeeze in a follow-up here on the H2 outlook and how we should be thinking about cadence, any seasonality in terms of modeling considerations for the toxin business. Thank you.

Sam Eiber: Okay. Really helpful there. Maybe if I could just squeeze in a follow-up here on the H2 outlook and how we should be thinking about cadence, any seasonality in terms of modeling considerations for the toxin business. Thank you.

Speaker #8: Thank you.

Speaker #6: Yeah. So we have modeled our outlook really looking at the sequential step-ups and step-downs that you would see seasonally in the industry. So we grew 14% in the first half, we're giving this guidance, right, where we're sort of up the midpoint of the revenue a bit.

Tatjana Mitchell: Yeah. We have modeled our outlook really looking at the sequential step-ups and step-downs that you would see seasonally in the industry. We grew 14% in the H1. We're giving this guidance, right, where we're sort of up the midpoint of the revenue a bit. What you see there is just really our confidence in the H2 following through the same approach. If you look at the year-over-year growth rates, I would just remind you, last year in H1, we grew high single digits, then in the H2, we stabilized. We were 14% growth, right? Just those comps I would consider when you think about our H2 guide.

Tatjana Mitchell: Yeah. We have modeled our outlook really looking at the sequential step-ups and step-downs that you would see seasonally in the industry. We grew 14% in the H1. We're giving this guidance, right, where we're sort of up the midpoint of the revenue a bit. What you see there is just really our confidence in the H2 following through the same approach.

Just those comps I would consider when you think about our H2 guide.

Speaker #6: And what you see there is just really our confidence in the second half, following through the same approach. If you look at the year-over-year growth rates, I would just remind you, last year in H1, in the first half, we grew high single digits, and then in the second half, we stabilized.

Speaker #6: We were 14% growth, right? So just those comps, I would consider when you think about our second half guide.

Operator: Our next question is from Serge Belanger with Needham & Company. Please proceed.

Speaker #7: Hi, this is John on for Serge today. Congrats on the quarter and thanks for taking our questions. So first, I wanted to kind of follow up on the last question and look to the second half of the year.

[Analyst] (Needham and Company): Hi, this is John on for Serge today. Congrats on the quarter, and thanks for taking our questions. First I wanted to kind of follow up on the last question and look to the H2 of the year. You guys are coming off a solid H1 and updating your full-year guidance. For the H2, it kind of implies over 10% growth there. Curious of any specific initiatives you guys have planned for the seasonally important H2, whether that's through Evolus Rewards or digital marketing, GLP-1 related messaging, and so on, and how we should think about the impact of these programs on revenue growth this year. Then Tatjana, you touched on the topic of tariffs in your prepared remarks.

Speaker #7: You guys are coming off a solid first half and updating your full year guidance. So for the second half, it kind of applies over 10% growth there.

Speaker #7: So curious of any specific initiatives you guys have planned for the seasonally important second half, whether that's through Evelisse rewards or digital marketing, GLP-1 related messaging, and so on.

Speaker #7: And how should we think about the impact of these programs on revenue growth this year? And then, Tatjana, you touched on the topic of tariffs.

[Analyst] (Needham and Company): Then Tatjana, you touched on the topic of tariffs in your prepared remarks. If you would just clarify whether toxins still remain exempt at this time, and similarly with the HAs, I believe they had been subject to 10% tariffs previously. Curious if anything has changed there and what your outlook is. Thanks.

Speaker #7: In your prepared remarks, could you please clarify whether toxins still remain exempt at this time? And, similarly with the HAs—I believe they've previously been subject to a 10% tariff.

[Analyst] (Needham and Company): If you would just clarify whether toxins still remain exempt at this time, and similarly with the HAs, I believe they had been subject to 10% tariffs previously. Curious if anything has changed there and what your outlook is. Thanks.

Speaker #7: So curious if anything has changed there and what your outlook is? Thanks.

Speaker #2: Great. I'll just touch on our back half views. At a high level, first is the back half's as important as the front half is.

David Moatazedi: Great. I'll just touch on our H2 views at a high level. First is, the H2's as important as the H1 is. As you can imagine, given the scale of the organization, we have a heavy investment in marketing, education, and promotional activities every quarter. As a matter of fact, this year, we'll train over 14,000 clinicians hands-on, and that continues each and every quarter. Education's a critical part of driving that confidence gap. Our consumer loyalty team has done a really effective job of not just maintaining patients coming back, but recruiting new patients into the category. Our co-branded media is a great complement to helping advertise and recruit some of those patients, where our clinics will advertise both our Evolus Rewards program as well as the brands in a lot of their co-branded media.

I would say the mix of all of our investment is complementary in order to continue to drive fast growth with the accounts that partner with us. As you said with Evolus, that GLP-1 target is a key strategic area of focus for us. It's one that worked very well in Q2, it's one that we're going to focus on in H2 as well.

Speaker #2: So, I would say the mix of all of our investment is complementary in order to continue to drive fast growth with the accounts that partner with us.

David Moatazedi: I would say the mix of all of our investment is complementary in order to continue to drive fast growth with the accounts that partner with us. As you said with Evolus, that GLP-1 target is a key strategic area of focus for us. It's one that worked very well in Q2, it's one that we're going to focus on in H2 as well. Lastly, Q4 is the heavy promotional season of the year for our category. We collaborate with beauty brands. We've done it multiple times in the past, we'll do that again in H2. That's something our accounts really look forward to when they can offer a consumer a gift with purchase.

Speaker #2: And as you said with Evelisse, that GLP-1 target is a key strategic area of focus for us. It's one that worked very well in the second quarter, and it's one that we're going to focus on in the back half of the year as well.

Speaker #2: And then lastly, fourth quarter is the heavy promotional season of the year for our category. So we collaborate with beauty brands. We've done it multiple times in the past, and we'll do that again in the back half of the year.

David Moatazedi: Lastly, Q4 is the heavy promotional season of the year for our category. We collaborate with beauty brands. We've done it multiple times in the past, we'll do that again in H2. That's something our accounts really look forward to when they can offer a consumer a gift with purchase. We also do something unique each year around 11's Day, that we've supported now for seven consecutive years. I know our customers get excited about that, want to learn more about it, we'll introduce those as well. It's part of our overall cadence.

David Moatazedi: We also do something unique each year around 11's Day, that we've supported now for seven consecutive years. I know our customers get excited about that, want to learn more about it, we'll introduce those as well. It's part of our overall cadence. There's nothing unique in there that would present any unique dynamics from a financial standpoint. It's just part of our operating model.

Speaker #2: So I know our customers get excited about that, want to learn more about it, and we'll introduce those as well. But it's part of our overall cadence.

David Moatazedi: There's nothing unique in there that would present any unique dynamics from a financial standpoint. It's just part of our operating model.

Speaker #6: Great. And on the tariffs, our position there remains the same. I think you mentioned for Evelisse that has been subject to a 10% tariff and continues to be.

Tatjana Mitchell: Great. On the tariffs, our position there remains the same. I think you mentioned for Evolus, that has been subject to a 10% tariff and continues to be. Jeuveau at this time is still exempt. There is a pronouncement regarding patented pharmaceutical tariffs, as we await clarity on that, we are prudently bringing in some inventory into the US, we have a mechanism with our partner there so that it is not going to impact our cash use.
