Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of Business

Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary (collectively, “we”, “our”, “us”, or the “Company”) manufacture, sell and distribute hemodialysis concentrates and other ancillary medical products and supplies used in the treatment of patients with End Stage Renal Disease, or “ESRD”. We supply our products to medical service providers who treat patients with kidney disease. Our products are used to cleanse patients’ blood and replace nutrients lost during the kidney dialysis process. We primarily sell our products in the United States.

We are regulated by the Federal Food and Drug Administration under the Federal Drug and Cosmetics Act, as well as by other federal, state and local agencies. We have received 510(k) approval from the FDA to market hemodialysis solutions and powders. We also have 510(k) approval to sell our Dri-Sate Dry Acid Concentrate product line and our Dri-Sate Mixer.

We have obtained global licenses for certain dialysis related drugs which we are developing and for which we are seeking FDA approval to market. We plan to devote substantial resources to the development, testing and FDA approval of our lead drug candidate.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts for our wholly owned subsidiary, Rockwell Transportation, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or “GAAP,” and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X as they apply to interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of our management, all adjustments have been included which are necessary to make the financial statements not misleading. All of these adjustments that are material are of a normal and recurring nature. Our operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012. You should read our unaudited interim financial statements together with the financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 includes a description of our significant accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue at the time we transfer title to our products to our customers consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Generally, we recognize revenue when our products are delivered to our customer’s location consistent with our terms of sale. We recognize revenue for international shipments when title has transferred consistent with standard terms of sale.

We require certain customers, mostly international customers, to pay for product prior to the transfer of title to the customer. Deposits received from customers and payments in advance for orders are recorded as liabilities under Customer Deposits until such time as orders are filled and title transfers to the customer consistent with our terms of sale.

Table of Contents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider cash on hand, money market funds, unrestricted certificates of deposit and short term marketable securities with an original maturity of 90 days or less as cash and cash equivalents.

Investments Available for Sale

Investments Available for Sale are short-term investments, consisting principally of investments in short term duration bond funds, and are stated at fair value based upon observed market prices (Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy). Unrealized holding gains or losses on these securities are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses, including declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are included as a component of other income or expense. There were no such realized gains or losses during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Research and Product Development

We recognize research and product development expenses as incurred. We incurred product development and research costs related to the commercial development, patent approval and regulatory approval of new products, including iron supplemented dialysate, aggregating approximately $9.4 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We are conducting human clinical trials on our drug candidate, Soluble Ferric Pyrophosphate, or SFP. We recognize the costs of the human clinical trials as the costs are incurred and services performed over the duration of the trials.

Net Earnings Per Share

We computed our basic earnings (loss) per share using weighted average shares outstanding for each respective period. Diluted earnings per share also reflect the weighted average impact from the date of issuance of all potentially dilutive securities, consisting of stock options and common share purchase warrants, unless inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect. Actual weighted average shares outstanding used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share were:

Statement of Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, “Statement of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”), which requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 was effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2012. The standard did not impact our reported results of operations but did impact our financial statement presentation. We now present items of other comprehensive income in the Statement of Consolidated Comprehensive Income rather than in the Statement of Shareholders’ Equity.

3. Inventory

Components of inventory as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are as follows:

4. Other Current Assets

Other current assets includes amounts advanced to contract services providers. These advances will offset future liabilities incurred with contract services providers for services and travel related to our clinical trials. As of March 31, 2012, the amount included in other current assets was $0.9 million.

5. Other Non-Current Assets

Other non-current assets includes amounts advanced to contract services providers. These advances will offset future liabilities incurred with contract services providers for services and travel related to our clinical trials. As of March 31, 2012, the amount included in other non-current assets was $1.3 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. References in this report to “we,” “our” and “us” are references to Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Forward-Looking Statements

We make forward-looking statements in this report and may make such statements in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. We may also make forward-looking statements in our press releases or other public or shareholder communications. Our forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and include information about our expectations and possible or assumed future results of our operations. When we use words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue,” “predict,” “forecast,” “projected,” “intend,” or similar expressions, or make statements regarding our intent, belief, or current expectations, we are making forward-looking statements. Our forward looking statements also include, without limitation, statements about our competitors, statements regarding the timing and costs of obtaining FDA approval of our new Soluble Ferric Pyrophosphate or SFP product and statements regarding our anticipated future financial condition, operating results, cash flows and business plans.

We claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for all of our forward-looking statements. While we believe that our forward-looking statements are reasonable, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which are based on information available to us on the date of this report or, if made elsewhere, as of the date made. Because these forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or are subject to change, actual results could be materially different. Factors that might cause such a difference include, without limitation, the risks and uncertainties discussed below and elsewhere in this report, and from time to time in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, in “Item 1A — Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Other factors not currently anticipated may also materially and adversely affect our results of operations, cash flow and financial position. There can be no assurance that future results will meet expectations. We do not undertake, and expressly disclaim, any obligation to update or alter any statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law.

Overview and Recent Developments

Rockwell Medical operates in a single business segment as a specialty pharmaceutical company offering innovative products targeting hemodialysis chronic kidney disease. As an established manufacturer delivering high-quality hemodialysis concentrates to dialysis providers and distributors in the U.S. and abroad, we provide products used to maintain human life, remove toxins and replace critical nutrients in the dialysis patient’s bloodstream.

We are currently developing unique, proprietary renal drug therapies. These novel renal drug therapies support disease management initiatives to improve the quality of life and care of dialysis patients and are designed to deliver safe and effective therapy, while decreasing drug administration costs and improving patient convenience and outcome.

Our strategy is to develop high potential drug candidates while also expanding our dialysis products business, which had sales of $12.0 million in the first quarter of 2012. Our dialysis products business is cash flow positive excluding research and development expenses, and provides an in-place sales and distribution infrastructure and conduit with established business relationships to sell our drug products into the dialysis market.

Our product development costs were primarily related to SFP, our lead drug candidate. We believe our SFP product has unique and substantive benefits compared to current treatment options and has the potential to compete in the iron delivery therapy market. Obtaining regulatory approval for a drug in the United States is expensive and can take several years. We expect to incur substantial costs on product testing and development over the next several years and expect to incur losses from operations until SFP is approved and marketed. In addition to our SFP testing and approval process, we plan to spend additional amounts on drug development of extensions of SFP technology as well as on other opportunities.

In 2011, we acquired the right to manufacture Calcitriol, a generic vitamin D analogue, indicated in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism, which is common in ESRD patients. We are in the process of obtaining FDA approval to make a change in manufacturing locations and intend to begin marketing Calcitriol following regulatory approval of manufacturing changes, which is expected in late 2012.

As of March 31, 2012 we had $25.6 million in cash and investments.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011

Sales

Sales in the first quarter of 2012 were $12.0 million compared to $13.3 million in the first quarter of 2011. Sales decreased $1.3 million or 9.5% largely due to reduced purchase volumes from one international distributor of $1.4 million partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in other international sales. Domestic sales were $0.4 million lower than the first quarter of last year primarily due to continuing changes in product mix resulting in lower sales dollars per unit as well as due to the loss of some smaller chain accounts that were acquired by other customers for whom we do not supply products. Over the last year, many customers have converted to our dry acid concentrate product line, which lowers providers’ cost per treatment and reduces our sales, but improves our gross profit margins by reducing shipping costs.

Table of Contents

Gross Profit

Gross profit margins in the first quarter of 2012 were 13.5% compared to 12.4% in the first quarter of 2011, an increase of 1.1 percentage points. Gross profit dollars in the first quarter were approximately equivalent to the first quarter of 2011 as changes to product mix, pricing and other costs offset the impact of lower sales volumes and higher fuel and material costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense during the first quarter of 2012 was $2.9 million, an increase of $0.7 million or 29.0% compared to the first quarter of 2011. The increase was largely due to higher charges for non-cash equity compensation of $0.4 million and higher legal costs $0.1 million.

Research and Development

Research and development costs were $9.4 million and $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Spending in both years was primarily for clinical testing and development of SFP with the increase in 2012 due to the increased testing associated with the SFP Phase III clinical program.

Interest and Investment Income, Net

Our net interest and investment income was $111,000 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to net interest and investment income of $86,000 in the first quarter of 2011. This increase in net interest and investment income was the result of slightly higher yields on our investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our strategy is centered on obtaining regulatory approval to market SFP and developing other high potential drug candidates, while also expanding our dialysis products business. We expect to expend substantial amounts in support of our clinical development plan and regulatory approval of SFP and its extensions and other product development opportunities. These initiatives will require the expenditure of substantial cash resources. We expect our cash needs for research and development spending to be significant over the next two years as we execute our clinical development program for SFP and other development initiatives. We are also required to make an additional cash payment of $550,000 in connection with our acquisition of the right to market Calcitriol and funding will be necessary to obtain FDA approval for our contract manufacturer to manufacture the product for us. However, these expenditures relating to Calcitriol are not expected to have a material effect on our liquidity or financial position.

Our cash resources include cash generated from our business operations and from proceeds of equity offerings. As of March 31, 2012, we had $25.6 million in cash and investments. In February 2012, we completed a common stock offering realizing $17.5 million in gross proceeds and approximately $16.2 million in net proceeds. We expect to generate additional cash from our business operations and from other sources, which may include the exercise of outstanding warrants, the possible out-licensing of SFP outside the United States, out-licensing of certain SFP uses outside the dialysis market, and other capital raising alternatives as needed.

Our current assets exceeded our current liabilities by $20.8 million as of March 31, 2012. During the first quarter of 2012, we used $8.3 million in cash for our operations. Our research and development expenses were $9.4 million in the first quarter of 2012.

13

Table of Contents

We believe our current and prospective sources of cash resources are sufficient to fund our anticipated research and development activities as well as our ordinary course operating cash requirements in 2012. We expect to generate positive cash flow from operations in 2012, excluding the effect of our research and development expenses, assuming relative stability in the markets for fuel and our key raw materials and relatively stable revenues. In addition, we may realize substantial cash proceeds from in-the-money warrants that expire in 2012 aggregating approximately $9.5 million. However, if we use more cash than anticipated for SFP development, if we are required to do more testing than expected, if the assumptions underlying our cash flow projections prove to be incorrect, or if we pursue opportunities to expand our business, we may need to obtain additional cash, such as through equity financing, debt financing of capital expenditures or a line of credit, to supplement our working capital. We explore opportunities from time to time to increase our cash resources, to reduce our liquidity risk and to have resources available to permit us to pursue expansion opportunities. Alternatively, we may seek to enter into product development arrangements with an international partner in order to fully execute our strategic plan. We may also evaluate alternative sources of business development funding, licensing agreements with international marketing partners, sub-licensing of certain products for certain markets and other potential funding sources.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our current exposure to interest rate risk is limited to changes in interest rates on short term investments of cash. As of March 31, 2012, we had $0.4 million in short term investments in a money market fund and $11.9 million in short term bond funds.

A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in market interest rates for short term liquid investments would increase our annualized interest income by an immaterial amount, assuming we invested $0.4 million in short term investments and that level remained constant for the year. We did not perform an analysis of a 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates as such an analysis would be meaningless in light of current rates.

We have invested $11.9 million in available for sale securities which are invested in short term bond funds which typically yield higher returns than the interest realized in money market funds. While these funds hold bonds of short term duration, their market value is affected by changes in interest rates. Increases in interest rates will reduce the market value of bonds held in these funds and we may incur unrealized losses from the reduction in market value of the fund. If we liquidate our position in these funds, those unrealized losses may result in realized losses which may or may not exceed the interest and dividends earned from those funds. However, due to the short duration of these short term bond fund portfolios, we do not believe that a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates will have a material impact on the value of our investment portfolio.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Our international business is conducted in U.S. dollars. It has not been our practice to hedge the risk of appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the predominant currencies of our trading partners. We have no significant foreign currency exposure to foreign supplied materials, and an immediate 10% strengthening or weakening of the U.S. dollar would not have a material impact on our shareholders’ equity or net income.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required financial disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognized that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at the reasonable assurance level, as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Remediation of Material Weakness

As discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form-10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, there was a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified by management relating to the timely recognition and recording of research and development expenses related to the Company’s clinical trials. As a result of this material weakness at December 31, 2011, there were misstatements in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and research and development expense in the preliminary consolidated financial statements that were corrected prior to issuance of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The material weakness did not result in a material misstatement of any previously filed financial statements but posed the risk that it could result in a material misstatement that may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

During the first quarter of 2012, management addressed this control deficiency by assigning additional personnel resources to this activity to ensure accurate and timely recording of research and development expenditures by each vendor. Management changed its control procedures to ensure that all liabilities were identified and accurately calculated and that those calculations were properly reviewed. As a result of these changes and subsequent review and testing by management, management has concluded that the previously reported material weakness no longer existed as of March 31, 2012.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act) during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

For information regarding risk factors affecting us, see “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the risk factors described in such Form 10-K, except as described below.

As disclosed above, the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified by management and disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 has been remediated. As a result, the risk factor entitled “We have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which, until remedied, could result in errors in our financial statements requiring restatement of our financial statements. As a result, investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could lead to a decline in our stock price.” has been amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below. In addition, the risk factor entitled “Even if our new drug products are approved by the FDA, we may not be able to market those successfully.” is amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below.

We could have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which, until remedied, could result in errors in our financial statements requiring restatement of our financial statements. As a result, investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could lead to a decline in our stock price.

SEC rules require us to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each year, and to include a management report assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in each Annual Report on Form 10-K. In our annual assessment of internal controls over financial reporting that management performed for the year ended December 31, 2011, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Although we believe this material weakness has been remedied, it is possible, due to the small size of our accounting staff, that we may identify other control deficiencies in the future that constitute one or more material weaknesses. If our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, there may be errors in our financial statements and in our disclosure that could require restatements. Investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information and in our disclosure, which could lead to a decline in our stock price.

No system of internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. Over time, controls may become inadequate because changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may occur. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. As a result, we cannot assure you that significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future.

Even if we receive FDA approval to manufacture and market our new drug products, we may not be able to market them successfully.

We are seeking FDA approval to manufacture and market our lead drug candidate, SFP, for which late-stage clinical trials are ongoing. We are also seeking FDA approval for a change in manufacturing location for our approved generic drug called Calcitriol. While we anticipate timely manufacturing approval for Calcitriol, if we encounter manufacturing delays with our contract manufacturer, FDA approval could be delayed.

Even if SFP and the manufacturing change for Calcitriol are approved by the FDA, the commercial success of these drugs will be affected by a number of factors, including the following:

Many of these factors are beyond our control. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will ever be able to generate revenues through the sale of SFP or Calcitriol. If we are not successful in commercializing our drugs, it would have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations and the market value of our common shares.
