Imprimis attributes growth to its vision of making sure patients have access to high quality affordable medications  

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: IMMY) today announced that it ranked 88th on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America.  Winners were selected based on percentage fiscal year revenue growth from 2014 to 2017, and Imprimis grew 1,513% during this period.

Mark L. Baum, CEO of Imprimis, stated, “I am proud of the work we have continued to do and the growth we’ve experienced since first being included on the Fast 500 list two years ago.  In 2014, we launched our ophthalmology business and from 2014 to 2017 we’ve seen ophthalmology revenue grow at a compounded annual growth rate of 238%.  Customers show their trust with their dollars, and given our fast growth, our focus on access to high quality affordable medicines is being rewarded through the trust of thousands of physicians across the country who rely on our innovative formulations to care for their patients.  I want to thank the hard-working employees of Imprimis, our physician partners, our dedicated customers, and our loyal shareholders, all of whom allow us to continue to help take great care of the health of thousands of Americans each day.”
