'For our fiscal 2020 third quarter, net sales were higher than expected due to COVID-19, as patients appear to have purchased extra supply of their medications and some customers increased their purchases of some of our products to address patient demand and avoid shortages.' said Tim Crew, Lannett chief executive officer. 'We plan to launch several new products in the next several months, and look forward to our scheduled meeting in early June with the FDA to plan next steps for the clinical advancement of our biosimilar insulin glargine partnered product candidate.'
