NEWS RELEASE
Foundation Medicine Announces 2013 Fourth Quarter and Year-End Results and Recent Highlights
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – February 25, 2014 – Foundation Medicine, Inc. (NASDAQ:FMI) today announced total revenue of $9.7 million in the 2013 fourth quarter, compared to $8.2 million in the 2013 third quarter. The company reported 3,752 clinical tests in the 2013 fourth quarter, up from 2,577 in the 2013 third quarter. Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $29.0 million, compared to $10.6 million for the prior year. More than 9,000 FoundationOne™ clinical tests were reported to physicians in 2013, up from 1,750 in 2012.
FoundationOne, the company’s first clinical product, is a fully informative genomic profile for solid tumors that identifies the individual molecular alterations in a patient’s cancer and matches those alterations with relevant targeted therapies and clinical trials.
“Clinical adoption of FoundationOne steadily increased during 2013 and accelerated through the fourth quarter demonstrating the value of the molecular information we are delivering to oncologists and pathologists. In addition, clinical research use of FoundationOne by pharmaceutical partners increased, highlighted by new relationships and the expansion of our multi-year collaboration with Novartis,” said Michael J. Pellini, M.D., president and chief executive officer, Foundation Medicine. “We are also encouraged by the initial uptake of FoundationOne™ Heme, our second clinical product, which was launched in December. The response from hematologists and oncologists indicates this product will be important in providing comprehensive genomic profiling for patients with hematologic malignancies, sarcomas and pediatric cancers.”
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2013 were $18.9 million, inclusive of $2.3 million in stock-based compensation expense. This compares with operating expenses for the third quarter of 2013 of $16.5 million, inclusive of $3.0 million in stock-based compensation expense. The fourth quarter increase in operating expenses was driven by increases in sales and related marketing activities and the commercial launch of FoundationOne Heme. For the full year, operating expenses were $59.1 million, inclusive of $7.3 million in stock-based compensation expense, compared to $26.9 million in 2012, inclusive of $1.5 in stock-based compensation expense.
Net loss was $13.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, or a $0.48 loss per basic and diluted share, and net loss for the full year was $42.9 million, or a $4.64 loss per basic and diluted share. At December 31, 2013, the company had $124.3 million of cash and cash equivalents.
Recent Highlights
