Meridian Contrarian Fund made the following comment about RVL Pharmaceuticals plc (NASDAQ:RVLP) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:

RVL Pharmaceuticals plc (NASDAQ:RVLP) is a specialty pharmaceutical company developing a novel treatment for ptosis, or low-lying. The company launched the drug, Upneeq, as it divested its legacy generic drug business in 2021. Following the game plans deployed for other medical aesthetics products Botox and Latisse, RVL has reported rapid sales growth in the high[1]margin Upneeq, which was launched medically in late 2020 and into the aesthetics market in 2022. The stock retreated during the quarter as an extended summer lull slowed sales results and led to reduced full-year expectations. We maintained our exposure as we believe the position is sized accordingly to the risk. Additionally, we believe the potential upside for Upneeq is considerable as it launched two new telemedicine partnerships in late 2022.”
