We have adopted a virtual format for our Annual Meeting to provide a consistent experience to all stockholders regardless of location.

ADMA BIOLOGICS, INC. 2 2025 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Who is entitled to vote at and attend the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record and beneficial owners of the Company’s common stock at the close of business on April 8, 2025 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to receive notice of, vote at and attend the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 238,563,612 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, held by five holders of record. Each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock as of the Record Date entitles its holder to cast one vote on each matter to be voted upon.

What is the difference between holding shares of common stock as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Certain of our stockholders hold or may in the future hold their shares of common stock beneficially through a broker or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares owned beneficially and those held of record.

Beneficial Owner: If your shares of common stock are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you together with a voting instruction card by your bank, broker or other nominee, as the case may be. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote. The voting instruction card from your bank, broker or other nominee contains voting instructions for you to use in directing the bank, broker or other nominee how to vote your shares, which include instructions for voting by Internet or telephone.

Because a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares of common stock at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

Stockholder of Record: If your shares of common stock are registered directly in your name with us or our stock transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares and these proxy materials are being sent directly to you by the Company. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to direct a proxy holder how to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting by following the instructions located at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ADMA2025. You can authorize your proxy or, if you have requested that the proxy materials be sent to you by mail, timely return the proxy card enclosed.

What do I need to do to attend the Annual Meeting?

Stockholders of record and beneficial owners as of the Record Date can attend the Annual Meeting online by logging onto our virtual forum at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ADMA2025 and following the instructions provided on your proxy card, vote instruction card or “Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials.” To participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your proxy card, voter instruction card or “Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials.” If you do not have this control number at the time of the Annual Meeting, you will still be able to attend virtually, but you will not be able to vote.

The virtual Annual Meeting platform is fully supported across browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari) and devices (desktops, laptops, tablets, and cell phones) running the most updated version of applicable software and plugins. Attendees should ensure that they have a strong Wi-Fi connection wherever they intend to participate in the virtual Annual Meeting. Attendees should also give themselves plenty of time to log in and ensure that they can hear streaming audio prior to the start of the virtual Annual Meeting.

Where can I obtain technical assistance if I encounter technical difficulties accessing virtual meeting?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual Annual Meeting. A phone number where you can obtain technical assistance will be made available on the day of the Annual Meeting.

In accordance with Delaware law and our Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”), the presence at the Annual Meeting, through virtual attendance or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding as of the Record Date and entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum. As of the Record Date, 238,563,612 shares of our common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote. If you submit a properly executed proxy card, regardless of whether you abstain from voting, your shares represented by such proxy card will be considered in determining the presence of a quorum.

You may vote at the Annual Meeting by following the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ADMA2025 or by mail, Internet, or telephone.

Voting by Mail: If you are a holder of record of common stock and choose to vote by mail, simply complete, sign and date your proxy card and mail it in the accompanying pre-addressed envelope to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”). If you hold common stock beneficially in “street name” and choose to vote by mail, you must complete, sign and date the voting instruction card provided by your bank, broker, or other nominee and mail it in the accompanying pre-addressed envelope within the specified time period.

Voting by Internet: If you are a holder of record of common stock and choose to vote by Internet, go to www.proxyvote.com and follow the instructions to obtain your records and to create an electronic voting instruction form to transmit your voting instructions. You must have your proxy card or Notice in hand when you access the website and you must transmit your voting instructions by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 3, 2025, the day before the Annual Meeting.

Any vote properly cast at the Annual Meeting will supersede any previously submitted proxy or voting instructions. For additional information, please see “Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after I return my proxy card?” below.

If you mail your executed proxy card for the Annual Meeting, such proxy card must be received by June 3, 2025. If you give instructions as to your proxy appointment to the Annual Meeting, such instructions must be received on June 4, 2025 at the Annual Meeting before the voting commences.

ADMA BIOLOGICS, INC. 4 2025 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

How does the Board of Directors recommend I vote on the proposals?

The recommendations of the Board are set forth after the description of each proposal in this proxy statement. In summary, the Board recommends a vote:

•	“FOR” the election of each of the director nominees named in the Director Election Proposal;

•	“FOR” the Auditor Ratification Proposal;

•	“FOR” the Say-on-Pay Proposal;

•	“1 YEAR” for the Say-on-Frequency Proposal.

How will my shares of common stock be voted if I do not indicate a vote on my proxy card?

Your shares will be voted as you indicate on the proxy card or voting instruction form, as applicable. If you return your signed proxy card but do not mark the boxes indicating how you wish to vote, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Board on those items. See the question above entitled “How does the Board of Directors recommend I vote on the proposals?” Your shares will be voted in accordance with the discretion of the proxyholders as to any other matter that is properly presented at the Annual Meeting.

Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my proxy?

For stockholders of record: If you are the stockholder of record and you do not vote by proxy card or virtually at the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted at the Annual Meeting.

For holders in street name: If your shares are held in street name, your shares may be voted even if you do not provide the brokerage firm with voting instructions. Subject to applicable Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), New York Stock Exchange and SEC rules, brokers or other nominees who hold shares for a beneficial owner have the discretion to vote on “routine” proposals (such as the Auditor Ratification Proposal) when they have not received voting instructions.

When a proposal is not a routine matter and you have not provided voting instructions to the brokerage firm with respect to that proposal, the brokerage firm cannot vote the shares on that proposal. The missing votes for these non-routine matters are called “broker non-votes.” Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, but will not be counted for purposes of determining the number of votes present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote with respect to the proposals presented in this proxy statement. The Director Election Proposal, the Say-on-Pay Proposal, and the Say-on-Frequency Proposal are considered non-routine matters and the Auditor Ratification Proposal is considered a routine matter. Accordingly, a broker non-vote will have “NO EFFECT” on the outcome of voting on the Director Election Proposal, the Say-on-Pay Proposal, or the Say-on-Frequency Proposal, and broker non-votes are “NOT APPLICABLE” to the Auditor Ratification Proposal.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after I authorize or return my proxy card?

Yes. Even after you have submitted your proxy, you may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised at the Annual Meeting. If you are a stockholder of record as of the Record Date, regardless of the way in which you submitted your original proxy, you may change it by:

•	Returning a later-dated signed proxy card or written notice of revocation, as applicable, to Broadridge at c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, Attention: Vote Processing;

•	Submitting written notice of revocation over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com to Broadridge by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 3, 2025, the day before the Annual Meeting;

•	Calling Broadridge at 1-800-690-6903 by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 3, 2025; or

•	Attending the Annual Meeting and properly voting using the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ADMA2025.

If your shares of common stock are held through a bank, broker, or other nominee, you will need to contact that nominee if you wish to change your voting instructions. You may also vote virtually at the Annual Meeting if you obtain a “legal proxy” as described in the answer to the question above entitled “How do I vote? – Voting at the Annual Meeting.” Mere attendance at the Annual Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked.

“ABSTAIN”

No Effect

Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares of ADMA’s common stock present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote generally on the election of directors, assuming the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. This means that the two nominees receiving the highest number of shares voted “FOR” their election will be elected as directors. You may vote for all the director nominees, withhold authority to vote your shares for all the director nominees or withhold authority to vote your shares with respect to any one or more of the director nominees. Withholding authority to vote your shares with respect to one or more director nominees will have NO EFFECT on the election of those nominees. Broker non-votes will have NO EFFECT on the election of the nominees.

Approval of the Auditor Ratification Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of ADMA’s common stock present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter, assuming the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions for this proposal will be counted as a vote AGAINST such proposal. This means that the number of votes cast “FOR” must exceed the number of votes cast “AGAINST” plus any abstentions for such proposal to be approved. The Auditor Ratification Proposal is considered a “routine” matter, so brokers will have the discretion to vote uninstructed shares on behalf of beneficial owners with respect to this proposal. As such, we do not expect any broker non-votes for this proposal.

Approval of the Say-on-Pay Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of ADMA’s common stock present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter, assuming the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions for this proposal will be counted as a vote AGAINST such proposal. This means that the number of votes cast “FOR” must exceed the number of votes cast “AGAINST” plus any abstentions for such proposal to be approved. The Say-on-Pay Proposal is considered a “non-routine” matter, and therefore broker non-votes will have NO EFFECT on the outcome of this proposal.

With respect to the Say-on-Frequency Proposal, the frequency options of every “1 YEAR, “2 YEARS” and “3 YEARS” that receives the highest number of votes cast by stockholders present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy at

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon will be the frequency for the advisory vote on the compensation for our named executive officers that has been selected by stockholders, assuming the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes and abstentions will not be included in the total votes cast and will not affect the results of the vote on this proposal.

Notwithstanding the vote standards described herein, please be advised that the Auditor Ratification Proposal, Say-on-Pay Proposal, and Say-on-Frequency Proposal are advisory only and will not be binding on the Company or the Board and will not create or imply any change in the fiduciary duties of, nor impose any additional fiduciary duty on, the Company or the Board. However, the Board, Compensation Committee and/or Audit Committee, as the case may be, will take into account the outcome of the votes when considering what action, if any, should be taken in response to the advisory vote by stockholders.

What happens if additional matters are presented at the Annual Meeting?

Other than the items of business described in this proxy statement, we are not aware of any other business to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. If you grant a proxy, the persons named as proxyholders will have the discretion to vote your shares of common stock on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournment, adjournments or postponement of the Annual Meeting.

Who will solicit proxies on behalf of the Board?

Our Board is asking you to give your proxy to Adam S. Grossman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Brad L. Tade, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. Giving your proxy to Messrs. Grossman and Tade means that you authorize Messrs. Grossman and Tade, either of them or their duly appointed substitutes, to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your instructions. All valid proxies received prior to the Annual Meeting will be voted. All shares represented by a proxy will be voted, and where a stockholder specifies by means of the proxy a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted in accordance with the specification so made. If no choice is indicated on the proxy, then the shares will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendations.

Proxies may be solicited on behalf of the Board, without additional compensation, by the Company’s directors and certain executive officers or employees of the Company.

Who will pay for the cost of this proxy solicitation?

We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies. Our directors, officers and other employees, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies personally or in writing, by telephone, e-mail, or otherwise. We are required to request that any brokers, trustees and other nominees who hold shares in their names furnish our proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the shares, and we must reimburse these brokers, trustees and other nominees for the expenses of doing so in accordance with statutory fee schedules.

The Director Election Proposal

The Company’s Bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors of the Company shall not be less than one nor more than nine. The Board is authorized to increase or decrease the total number of directors within the limitations prescribed by the Company’s Bylaws. The Company’s Bylaws and the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of ADMA Biologics, Inc., as amended to date (the “Charter”), divide the Board into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Seven directors are currently serving on the Board.

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to elect two Class III directors for a three-year term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2028. The Class III nominees, whose term of office will expire at the annual meeting in 2028 if reelected, are Jerrold B. Grossman, D.P.S. and Lawrence P. Guiheen. If Dr. Grossman and Mr. Guiheen are reelected as Class III directors at the Annual Meeting pursuant to this proposal, then the Board will continue to consist of seven directors.

The Board has nominated Dr. Grossman and Mr. Guiheen upon the recommendation of our Governance and Nominations Committee. Proxies solicited by or on behalf of the Board will, unless otherwise directed, be voted to elect Dr. Grossman and Mr. Guiheen. Dr. Grossman and Mr. Guiheen have each indicated a willingness to continue to serve for the term to which they have been nominated, if elected. In case any nominee is not a candidate at the Annual Meeting, the proxies named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote in favor of the remaining nominees and to vote for a substitute nominee in their discretion in such class, as they shall determine. Set forth below is certain information about each of Dr. Grossman and Mr. Guiheen, including their age, principal occupation and business experience for at least the past five years and the names of other publicly held companies on whose boards they serve or have served during the past five years. Other than with respect to Dr. Jerrold B. Grossman, who is the father of Mr. Adam S. Grossman, our President, Chief Executive Officer and a Class II Director, there are no family relationships among any of our directors, the nominees for director or our executive officers.

ADMA Corporate Governance

Director Independence

Our Board has determined that each of Steven A. Elms, Alison C. Finger, Lawrence P. Guiheen, Young T. Kwon, PhD and Eduardo Rene Salas is independent as that term is defined under the applicable independence listing standards of Nasdaq.

Nominating Rights

Our Board includes members who are designated nominees of certain of our stockholders. Mr. Elms is currently the designated nominee of Aisling Capital and Dr. Jerrold B. Grossman is currently the designated nominee of Hariden, LLC (“Hariden”), an entity controlled by Adam S. Grossman. In February 2012, we completed a private placement (the “2012 Financing”). As lead investors in the 2012 Financing, each of Aisling Capital and Hariden are entitled to designate one nominee to our Board for as long as each such entity owns 50% of the shares of common stock that it owned immediately following the closing of the 2012 Financing.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board evaluates its leadership structure and role in risk oversight on an ongoing basis.

Our Board is currently composed of seven directors, five of whom are independent, in accordance with the Nasdaq independence listing standards. If the director nominees are each reelected, the Company’s Board will consist of seven directors. Presently, the Board has the following standing committees: Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Governance and Nominations Committee. Each of the standing committees is comprised solely of independent directors. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, our Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing risk management and updates the full Board periodically.

To assure effective and independent oversight of management, our Board currently operates with the roles of President and Chief Executive Officer on the one hand and Chairman of the Board on the other separated in recognition of the differences between these roles in the management of the Company. Although our Board does not have a policy as to whether the same individual may serve as both Chairman and President and Chief Executive Officer, or if the roles must be separate, our Board believes that its current leadership structure provides the most effective leadership model for our Company, as it promotes balance between the Board’s independent authority to oversee our business and the President and Chief Executive Officer and his management team, which manages the business on a day-to-day basis. The President and Chief Executive Officer has overall responsibility for all aspects of our operation, while the Chairman has a greater focus on governance of the Company, including oversight of the Board. We believe this balance of shared leadership between the two positions is a strength for the Company. As our Chairman, Mr. Elms calls and chairs regular and special meetings of the Board, chairs and presides at annual or special meetings of stockholders, provides meaningful input into the agenda of Board meetings, authorizes the retention of outside advisors, consultants and legal counsel who report directly to the Board and consults frequently with committee chairs. Additionally, by permitting more effective monitoring and objective evaluation of the President and Chief Executive Officer’s performance, this structure increases the accountability of the President and Chief Executive Officer. A separation of the President and Chief Executive Officer and Chairman roles also prevents the former from controlling the Board’s agenda and information flow, thereby reducing the likelihood that the President and Chief Executive Officer would abuse his power.

The Board, acting primarily through the Audit Committee, is also responsible for oversight of our risk management practices, while management is responsible for the day-to-day risk management processes. This division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company, and the Company’s board leadership structure supports this approach. Through our President and Chief Executive Officer, and other members of management, the Board receives periodic reports regarding the risks facing the Company. In addition, the Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight role by receiving periodic reports regarding our risk and control environment.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Compensation Committee reviews the Company’s compensation practices to confirm that they do not create risks likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. This review includes comparing the compensation practices of the Company with peer companies in the life sciences sector as well as ensuring that the compensation packages of key executives are tied to the long-term success of the Company and therefore correlated to increases in stockholder value.

Meetings of the Board and its Committees

The Board held a total of five meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, no incumbent director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of all meetings of the Board held during the period in which he or she served as a director and the total number of meetings held by the committee on which he or she served during the period. Members of our Board are invited and encouraged to attend each annual meeting of stockholders, and each director then serving on the Board, with the exception of former director Bryant Fong, attended the prior annual meeting of stockholders held on June 4, 2024 in person or by teleconference.

Board Committees

Our Board currently has three standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Governance and Nominations Committee. These committees, their principal functions and their respective memberships are described below.

Audit Committee

The current members of our Audit Committee are Dr. Kwon (Chairman), and Messrs. Guiheen and Salas. The composition and responsibilities of the Audit Committee, as reflected in its charter, are intended to be in accordance with applicable rules of the SEC for corporate audit committees and listing requirements of Nasdaq. Our Board has determined that each Audit Committee member meets the definition of an independent director as defined by the applicable Nasdaq listing standards and the additional independence criteria for members of audit committees specified in the Nasdaq listing standards and Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our Board has determined that Dr. Kwon qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined by SEC rules.

The Audit Committee was established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The primary functions of the Audit Committee are to: (i) review the financial reports and other financial information prepared by the Company for submission to any governmental or regulatory body or the public and monitor the integrity of such financial reports; (ii) review the Company’s systems of internal controls established for finance, accounting, legal compliance and ethics; (iii) review the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes generally and the audits of the financial statements of the Company; (iv) monitor compliance with legal regulatory requirements; (v) monitor the independence and performance of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; and (vi) provide effective communication between the Board, senior and financial management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee meets regularly with our independent registered public accounting firm without management present, and from time to time with management in separate private sessions, to discuss any matters that the Audit Committee or these individuals believe should be discussed privately with the Audit Committee, including any significant issues or disagreements that may arise concerning our accounting practices or financial statements. In addition, the Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight role by receiving periodic reports regarding our risk and control environment.

The Audit Committee is also responsible for addressing matters of accounting policy with our independent registered public accounting firm. In discharging its role, the Audit Committee is empowered to investigate any matter within the scope of its responsibilities with full access to all of our books, records, facilities and personnel. The Audit Committee also has the power to retain special legal, accounting and other advisors as it deems necessary to carry out its duties. In 2024, the Audit Committee retained the services of BDO USA, LLP, as a Sarbanes-Oxley advisor, to assist with the Company’s internal controls related to the Company’s compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404A.

The Audit Committee held six meetings during the year ended December 31, 2024. A copy of the Audit Committee’s charter is posted on our website at www.admabiologics.com.

Compensation Committee

The members of our Board’s Compensation Committee are Dr. Kwon (Chairman), Mr. Guiheen and Ms. Finger. Our Board has determined that all members of the Compensation Committee are independent directors.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for ensuring that the Company’s compensation programs are: (i) effective in attracting and retaining the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, the Company’s other executive officers, the Company’s other officers and the Company’s non-management directors; (ii) administered fairly and in our stockholders’ interests; and (iii) in compliance with the applicable compensation rules, regulations and guidelines promulgated by Nasdaq, the SEC, the Internal Revenue Service and other laws, as amended from time to time. The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends to the Board appropriate executive compensation policies, compensation of the directors and officers and executive and employee benefit plans and programs, and is responsible for overseeing such policies, compensation programs and plans approved by the Board and, where appropriate, by our stockholders.

The Board determines, based on the recommendations of the Compensation Committee, the compensation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, including salary, bonus, equity awards, retention awards and certain other arrangements. The President and Chief Executive Officer, or any other executive officer for whom compensation is being discussed or determined, is not permitted to be present at meetings at which their respective compensation or performance is discussed or determined.

Under the Compensation Committee Charter, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chairman of the Board may recommend to the Compensation Committee individual compensation awards for our officers. The Compensation Committee would then have to review the recommendation and make its own recommendation to the Board.

The Compensation Committee may also form, and delegate such power and authority to, subcommittees when deemed appropriate; provided that the Compensation Committee may not delegate any power or authority required by any law, regulation or listing standard to be exercised by the Compensation Committee as a whole; provided further that no such subcommittee shall consist of fewer than two members. In addition, the Compensation Committee may retain special legal counsel, compensation or other consultants to advise it on compensation matters or as it deems appropriate.

The Compensation Committee held seven meetings during the year ended December 31, 2024. A copy of the Compensation Committee’s charter is posted on our website at www.admabiologics.com.

Governance and Nominations Committee

The members of our Board’s Governance and Nominations Committee are Messrs. Guiheen (Chairman) and Elms, and Ms. Finger. Our Board has determined that all members of the Governance and Nominations Committee are independent directors as defined by the applicable Nasdaq listing standards.

The Governance and Nominations Committee’s role and responsibilities are set forth in the Governance and Nominations Committee’s written charter and include: (i) evaluating and making recommendations to the full Board the persons to be nominated for election as directors at any meeting of stockholders and the persons to be elected by the Board to fill any vacancies on the Board; (ii) developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles and a code of conduct applicable to the Company; and (iii) overseeing the evaluation of the Board through annual assessment by the Governance and Nominations Committee of the performance of each member of the Board. In evaluating the independence of directors, the Governance and Nominations Committee considers many factors and has taken the position that a director may be considered independent despite being affiliated with a significant stockholder.

In identifying candidates for membership on the Board, the Governance and Nominations Committee takes into account all factors it considers appropriate, which may include (a) ensuring that the Board, as a whole, is diverse and consists of individuals of varying gender, origin and backgrounds with various and relevant career experience, relevant technical skills, education, industry knowledge and experience, financial expertise (including expertise that could qualify a director as an “audit committee financial expert,” as that term is defined by the rules of the SEC), local or community ties; and (b) minimum individual qualifications, including strength of character, mature judgment, familiarity with the Company’s business and industry, independence of thought and an ability to work collegially. The Governance and Nominations Committee has instituted a policy whereby diversity, including diversity of gender, origin and background, became a key consideration when identifying candidates for membership on the Board. The Governance and Nominations Committee also may consider the extent to which the candidate would fill a present need on the Board.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Company believes that the continuing service of qualified incumbents promotes stability and continuity in the boardroom, contributing to the ability of the Board to work as a collective body, while giving the Company the benefit of the familiarity and insight into the Company’s affairs that its directors have accumulated during their tenure. Accordingly, the process of the Governance and Nominations Committee for identifying nominees reflects the Company’s practice of re-nominating incumbent directors who continue to satisfy the Governance and Nominations Committee’s criteria for membership on the Board, whom the Governance and Nominations Committee believes continue to make important contributions to the Board and who consent to continue their service on the Board. The Governance and Nominations Committee will identify or solicit recommendations for new candidates when there is no qualified and available incumbent.

The Governance and Nominations Committee will consider nominees recommended by stockholders. There are no differences in the manner in which the committee evaluates nominees for director based on whether the nominee is recommended by a stockholder or by the Governance and Nominations Committee. Stockholders who would like to have our Governance and Nominations Committee consider their recommendations for nominees for the position of director should submit their recommendations, in a timely manner and in accordance with the procedures set forth below, in writing to: Corporate Secretary, ADMA Biologics, Inc., 465 State Route 17, Ramsey, New Jersey 07446.

The Auditor Ratification Proposal

Our Audit Committee has appointed KPMG LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025. In connection with this appointment, KPMG LLP will examine and report to stockholders on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries for 2025.

Although stockholder ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board has put this proposal before the stockholders because it believes that seeking stockholders’ ratification of the Audit Committee’s appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm is good corporate practice. This vote is only advisory, however, because the Audit Committee has the sole authority to retain and dismiss our independent registered public accounting firm. If the appointment of KPMG LLP is not ratified, the Audit Committee will evaluate the basis for the stockholders’ vote when determining whether to continue the firm’s engagement. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its sole discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Representatives of KPMG LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders. They also will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.

Vote Required

The Auditor Ratification Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person, by remote communication, or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter to be approved. This means that the number of votes cast “FOR” must exceed the number of votes cast “AGAINST” plus any abstentions for this Auditor Ratification Proposal to be approved.

Board Recommendation

After careful consideration, the Board determined that ratification of the Audit Committee’s appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2025 is advisable and in the best interests of ADMA and its stockholders. On the basis of the foregoing, the Board has approved and declared advisable the ratification of the Audit Committee’s appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2025 and recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the Audit Committee’s appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2025.

Change of Independent Public Accountants

As previously reported on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on October 9, 2024 (the “Change of Auditor Current Report”), CohnReznick LLP (“CohnReznick”), resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm effective as of November 7, 2024 (the “Resignation Date”), the date the Company completed the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024.

CohnReznick is not required to obtain, and did not seek, the Company’s consent to its decision to resign as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. As a result, neither the Board nor the Audit Committee took part in CohnReznick’s decision to provide its notice of resignation.

CohnReznick’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as December 31, 2023, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Furthermore, during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through the Resignation Date, there have been no disagreements with CohnReznick as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K on any matter of accounting principles or practices,

ADMA BIOLOGICS, INC. 22 2025 Proxy Statement

financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to CohnReznick’s satisfaction, would have caused CohnReznick to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company’s financial statements or internal control over financial reporting.

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and through the Resignation Date, there were no “reportable events” as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided to CohnReznick the disclosure contained in the Change of Auditor Current Report and requested CohnReznick furnish a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company (the “CohnReznick Letter”), and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. The CohnReznick Letter has been filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Change of Auditor Current Report.

On October 31, 2024, the Company and KPMG LLP executed an agreement pursuant to which KPMG LLP was engaged to serve as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm effective upon the filing of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024. KPMG’s engagement included an audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, which were filed as part of the Company’s Annual Report.

Principal Accounting Fees and Services

The following table summarizes the aggregate fees billed by our independent registered public accounting firm to us for each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Since November 7, 2024, KPMG LLP has served as our independent registered public accounting firm. A description of these fees and services follows the table.

Fees for audit services in 2024 and 2023 consisted of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of the Company’s consolidated annual financial statements included in our Annual Report, the review of the interim consolidated financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by our independent registered public accountants in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services

Our Audit Committee requires pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services in one of two methods. Under the first method, the engagement to render the services would be entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the Audit Committee, provided (i) the policies and procedures are detailed as to the services to be performed, (ii) the Audit Committee is informed of each service, and (iii) such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities under the Exchange Act to the Company’s management. Under the second method, the engagement to render the services would be presented to and pre-approved by the Audit Committee (subject to the de minimis exceptions for non-audit services described in Section 10A(i)(1)(B) of the Exchange Act that are approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of the audit). The Chairperson of the Audit Committee has the authority to grant pre-approvals of audit and permissible non-audit services by the independent registered public accounting firm, provided that all pre-approvals by the Chairperson must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee considers, among other things, whether the provision of such audit or non-audit services is consistent with applicable regulations regarding maintaining auditor

independence, whether the provision of such services would impair the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence and whether the independent registered public accounting firm is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service.

Report of the Audit Committee

The following Report of the Audit Committee shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except to the extent we specifically incorporate it by reference therein.

The Audit Committee reviews our financial reporting process on behalf of our Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements, the reporting process and maintaining our system of internal control over financial reporting. Our independent registered public accounting firm was engaged to audit and express opinions on the conformity of our financial statements to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

The Audit Committee of the Board has:

•	Reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 with management;

•	Discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) in Rule 3200T; and

•

Received written disclosures and a letter from KPMG LLP regarding its independence as required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding KPMG LLP’s communications with the Audit Committee, and the Audit Committee further discussed with KPMG LLP their independence. The Audit Committee also considered the status of pending litigation, taxation matters and other areas of oversight related to the financial reporting and audit process that the committee determined appropriate.

Based on the Audit Committee’s review of the audited financial statements and discussions with management and KPMG LLP, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 for filing with the SEC.

The Say-on-Pay Proposal

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and Section 14A of the Exchange Act requires all public companies to hold a separate non-binding advisory stockholder vote to approve the compensation of named executive officers as reported in this proxy statement (commonly known as the “Say-on-Pay” vote).

The advisory vote on executive compensation is a non-binding vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, the tabular disclosure regarding such compensation, and the accompanying narrative disclosure, set forth in this proxy statement. The advisory vote on executive compensation is not a vote on our general compensation policies, the compensation of our Board, or our compensation policies as they relate to risk management.

The Compensation Committee of our Board oversees and administers our executive compensation program, including the evaluation and approval of compensation plans, policies and programs offered to our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee has designed the executive compensation program for our named executive officers to meet the following objectives:

•	Ensure executive compensation is aligned with our corporate strategies and business objectives;

•	Subject a substantial portion of an executive officer’s compensation to achieving both short-term and long-term performance objectives that enhances stockholder value by linking rewards to measurable corporate and individual performance;

•	Reinforce the importance of meeting and exceeding identifiable and measurable goals through awards for performance;

•	Provide total direct compensation that is competitive in the marketplace in order to attract, retain and motivate the best possible executive candidates; and

•	Provide an incentive for long-term continued employment with our Company.

We believe our approach to goal setting and setting of targets with payouts based upon performance results assists in mitigating excessive risk-taking that could harm our value or reward poor judgment by our executives. Several features of our programs reflect sound risk management practices. We believe we have allocated our compensation among base salary and short and long-term compensation target opportunities in such a way as to not encourage excessive risk-taking.

The vote solicited by this Say-on-Pay Proposal is advisory, and therefore is not binding on the Company, our Board or our Compensation Committee. The outcome of the vote will not require the Company, our Board or our Compensation Committee to take any action, and will not be construed as overruling any decision by the Company or the Board.

Furthermore, because this non-binding, advisory resolution primarily relates to the compensation of our named executive officers that has already been paid or contractually committed, there is generally no opportunity for us to revisit these decisions. However, our Board, including our Compensation Committee, values the opinions of our stockholders and, to the extent there is any significant vote against the executive officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, we consider our stockholders’ concerns and evaluate what actions, if any, may be appropriate to address those concerns.

Stockholders will be asked at the Annual Meeting to approve the following resolution pursuant to this Say-on-Pay Proposal:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders of the Company approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview

The following discussion provides an overview and analysis of the philosophy and objectives of the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ADMA Biologics, Inc. (“we”, “us”, or the “Company”) in designing compensation programs as well as the compensation determinations and the rationale for those determinations relating to our President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the other individuals who served as executive officers during the year, to whom we refer to collectively as our “named executive officers.” Our named executive officers for 2024 were Adam S. Grossman, President and CEO, Brad Tade, Kaitlin Kestenberg, and Brian Lenz. On April 1, 2024, Ms. Kestenberg commenced employment as Chief Operating Officer and Senior Vice President, Compliance, and Mr. Lenz transitioned from his role as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer to a non-employee consulting role. Mr. Tade was appointed as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company on July 24, 2024.

Executive Summary

We made significant progress toward achieving our strategic goals and objectives in 2024. Most notably, we achieved the following:

•	Reported record revenue of $426.5 million for the full year, which represented a 65% increase over the prior year.

•	Stock price increased 277% from market close on January 2, 2024 ($4.55) to market close on December 31, 2024 ($17.15), and during the same period the Company’s market capitalization increased from $1.0 billion to $4.1 billion.

•

Submitted a Prior Approval Supplement for potential approval of an innovative yield enhancement production process to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”), which has demonstrated an ability to increase production yields by approximately 20% from the same starting plasma volume. We anticipate a mid-2025 approval by the FDA.

•	Reported record highs across all ASCENIV leading demand metrics through year-end 2024, as ASCENIV’s benefit in real-world patient outcomes continues.

•

Executed multiple, long-term high-titer plasma supply contracts with third parties which are expected to significantly increase access to raw material plasma used to produce ASCENIV, as they allow the Company to source high-titer plasma from approximately 250 collection centers, a five-fold increase in total collection capacity.

•	Ended 2024 with over $103 million in cash, notwithstanding $60 million of outstanding debt repaid under the outstanding credit facility with Ares Capital in the second half of 2024. The Company now holds a net cash surplus relative to the $75 million of total outstanding debt with Ares Capital.

•

Implemented our innovative AI program, ADMAlytics™, to improve efficiencies across our supply chain and production operations. When fully implemented, ADMAlytics is expected to further optimize our commercial growth strategy. The benefits of ADMAlytics include increased production efficiency, enhanced visibility into the 7–12-month manufacturing process, optimized commercial planning, streamlined plasma pooling, and reduced variability and personnel hours.

•

Successfully produced a pilot-scale batch of our S. pneumonia hyperimmune globulin pipeline product, named SG-001. S. pneumonia is the predominant cause of community-acquired pneumonia in the U.S., ranking as the ninth leading cause of overall mortality, and we estimate that an S. pneumonia hyperimmune globulin, if approved, has the potential to generate peak annual revenue of $300-500 million.

Executive Compensation Philosophy

This CD&A provides an overview of our executive compensation philosophy, the overall objectives of our executive compensation program and each element of compensation provided. In addition, it explains how and why our Compensation Committee arrived at the specific compensation policies and decisions involving our named executive officers. The primary objectives of our executive compensation program are to motivate and retain key executives, attract new talent, and link compensation achievement in a pay for performance model tied to business objectives, ultimately linking executive compensation with stockholder interests. To determine named executive officer compensation for 2024, consistent with this philosophy, the Compensation Committee considered the impact of our corporate performance during 2023, each named executive officer’s individual performance, each named executive officer’s anticipated future contributions, market conditions generally, and compensation data from peer group companies.

Our executive compensation decisions are based on the following fundamental philosophies and objectives of our Compensation Committee:

•	Ensure executive compensation is aligned with corporate strategies and business objectives;

•	Align pay with performance at the company and individual level via short-term and long-term performance incentives that are designed to enhance stockholder value;

•	Reinforce the importance of meeting and exceeding identifiable and measurable goals through awards for performance;

•	Provide total direct compensation that is competitive in the marketplace in order to attract, retain and motivate the best possible executive candidates; and

•	Provide an incentive for long-term continued employment with the Company.


	What We Do			What We Don’t Do
	✔ We pay for performance ✔ We grant long-term time-based awards under our long-term equity compensation plan based on individual performance ✔ We consider and benchmark against peer groups in establishing compensation ✔ We retain an independent compensation consultant ✔ We have a clawback and recoupment policy			✘ We do not encourage excessive risk-taking in our compensation practices ✘ We do not provide for tax gross-up payments in our agreements ✘ We do not grant excessive severance, pension or other benefits ✘ We have not historically repriced stock options and are unable to reprice stock options under the ADMA Biologics, Inc. 2022 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2022 Plan”) without stockholder approval

Determination of Competitive Compensation for 2024

Role of Compensation Committee

Our Compensation Committee uses its judgment to evaluate the compensation of our named executive officers based on market data and individual performance (as described further below in the section entitled “Executive Compensation Components”). This judgment is reflected in the compensation decisions for 2024 and signifies our Compensation Committee’s commitment to align executive compensation with the business objectives and performance of the Company. We reward our named executive officers in a manner that supports a philosophy of pay-for-performance while maintaining an overall level of compensation that is competitive with the compensation paid to similarly situated named executive officers in our peer group and the life sciences industry.

Role of the Compensation Consultant

For most of 2024, the Compensation Committee engaged Radford Aon, plc (“Radford Aon”), a nationally known executive compensation and benefits consulting firm, to serve as the independent compensation consultant, working directly with the Compensation Committee to assist in a review of our overall director and executive compensation programs, including with respect to benchmarking executive compensation. Radford Aon reviewed our compensation peer group to ensure it was relevant for competitive analysis of executive pay and reviewed our compensation practices with respect to our named executive officers relative to the pay levels and practices of our peer group.

In October 2024, the Compensation Committee switched from Radford Aon to Pay Governance LLC (“Pay Governance”), another nationally known executive compensation and benefits consulting firm, to assist it in evaluating the peer group and conducting an

ADMA BIOLOGICS, INC. 28 2025 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

executive compensation analysis for 2025. Pay Governance provided additional analyses to ensure that the Company was using the appropriate comparator group for our executive compensation benchmarking, to provide an understanding of how our executive compensation program compared to market practice and to serve as the basis for our Compensation Committee’s assessment regarding current pay competitiveness and potential actions for 2025.

In engaging Radford Aon and Pay Governance in fiscal year 2024, the Compensation Committee determined that both consultants were independent in accordance with SEC Rule 10C-1 and that their work did not raise any conflict of interest.

Overview of Compensation Elements

To achieve our compensation objectives, we provide each named executive officer with a compensation package consisting primarily of the following fixed and variable elements:


Compensation Element	Compensation Objectives	Design
Base Salary	• Recognizes performance of job responsibilities and attracts and retains individuals with superior talent. • Reflects the experience of the individual named executive officer and expected day-to-day contributions, supported by market data.	• Fixed compensation that is reviewed annually to consider changes in responsibility, experience, and market competitiveness.
Short-Term Incentive Compensation	• At-risk pay is designed to motivate achievement of annual performance goals. • Provides incentives to attain short-term corporate and individual goals.	• Variable compensation based on corporate performance, and subject to further adjustment based on individual performance.
