In its own words

Lifecore Biomedical, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Lifecore”, the “Company”, “we” or “us”), located in Chaska, Minnesota, is a fully integrated contract development and manufacturing organization (“CDMO”) that offers highly differentiated clinical and commercial capabilities in the development, cGMP manufacturing and aseptic filling of complex formulations and highly viscous sterile injectable pharmaceutical drug or medical device products in syringes, vials and cartridges, across a wide variety of modalities. Lifecore has become a leading U.S. manufacturer of pharmaceutical-grade, non-animal-sourced hyaluronic acid (“HA”) using our proprietary, fermentation-based HA process that we developed in 1981. We manufacture HA in bulk form as well as for use in formulated and filled syringes and vials for our customers’ injectable products used in treating a broad spectrum of medical conditions and procedures, including ophthalmic and orthopedic applications. We have leveraged this expertise in HA fermentation, manufacturing and aseptic formulation and filling to also develop highly viscous non-HA-based sterile injectable products with our customers for multiple applications.
