"While 2020 presented extraordinary challenges, I thank our team for continuing to manufacture and deliver products to our customers throughout the year," said Mary Anne Heino, President and CEO. "Our fourth quarter revenue growth was 5.4% over the prior year period and also represented steady improvement over the prior two quarters of 2020. During 2020, we advanced our strategic mandate by closing the Progenics acquisition in June and receiving FDA approval for DEFINITY RT in November as well as FDA acceptance and Priority Review designation for our PyL NDA in December. In 2021, we will continue to drive sustainable growth, expand product offerings to our customers, improve the lives of the patients we serve, and create value for our shareholders."
Outlook
The Company guidance for the first quarter and full year 2021 is as follows:
On a forward-looking basis, the Company does not provide GAAP income per common share guidance or a reconciliation of adjusted fully diluted EPS to GAAP income per common share because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty business development and acquisition-related expenses, purchase accounting fair value adjustments, and any one-time, non-recurring charges. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to results computed in accordance with GAAP. As a result, it is the Company’s view that a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted fully diluted EPS on a forward-looking basis is not available without unreasonable effort.

The Company routinely posts information that may be important to investors in the "Investors" section of its website at www.lantheus.com. The Company encourages investors and potential investors to consult its website regularly for important information about the Company.
