Fourth Quarter 2013 Financial Results

 

Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 were $10.2 million, representing 94% growth over 2012 fourth quarter revenues of $5.3 million.

 

2013 fourth quarter product revenues were $5.0 million representing a 121% increase from product revenues of $2.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase in product revenues was primarily attributable to growth in the Asia region. Service revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 were $5.2 million, up 73% from 2012 fourth quarter revenues of $3.0 million. The increase in service revenues was driven by an increase in the number of customers and an increase in volume from existing customers.

 

U.S. revenues were $4.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 representing 87% growth over the same period’s revenues of $2.5 million in the prior year. Growth was driven by an increase in the number of customers and an increase in volume from existing customers.

 

Europe and Rest of the World revenues were $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 representing 13% growth over 2012 fourth quarter revenues of $1.8 million. Results were reflective of the more fragmented nature of this market and our investment priorities. 

 

Asia revenues were $3.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 representing 268% growth over revenues in the 2012 fourth quarter of $0.9 million. Revenues in the Asia region were driven by continued strong growth in China combined with the addition of revenues from Japan, where we obtained marketing approval in the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $5.8 million, an increase of $3.8 million over gross profit of $2.0 million in the same period of 2012. Gross margin was 56.6% an increase of 19.1 percentage points over the gross margin of 37.5% in the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase in gross margin was due to an increase in both product margins and service margins. The increase in product margins was driven by improvements in kit costs, amortization of fixed costs over an increased volume and a favorable standard cost adjustment in the quarter. The service margin increase was driven primarily by the consolidation of all U.S. testing into one lab facility in Memphis, TN, kit cost reductions and significant operational improvements in workflow in the Memphis facility.

 

Operating expenses were $7.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $1.6 million compared to $6.3 million in the same period last year. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the hiring of additional sales and marketing personnel, an increase in accounting and audit costs associated with our initial public offering in November of 2013 and an increase in administrative costs related to being a public company.

 

EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $(2.7) million compared to $(4.2) million in the fourth quarter of 2012. Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.4) million for the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to $(4.1) million in the same period in 2012. EBITDA and Adjusted EBTIDA are non-GAAP financial measures.

 

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $3.3 million or $0.38 per share compared to $4.3 million or $1.99 per share in the fourth quarter of 2012. Net loss per share was based on 8,721,880 and 2,153,826 weighted average ordinary shares outstanding for the fourth quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Cash and cash equivalents were $76.5 million as of December 31, 2013 compared to $12.6 million as of December 31, 2012. This increase is primarily due to the successful completion of our initial public offering in November 2013, raising net proceeds of $63.9 million.

  

 

Full Year 2013 Financial Results

 

Revenues for the full year 2013 were $38.8 million, an increase of $18.1 million over 2012 full year revenues of $20.7 million.

For the full year 2013, product revenues were $19.9 million representing year-over-year growth of 119% over 2012 revenues of $9.1 million. 2013 service revenues were $18.9 million, a 63% increase over 2012 service revenues of $11.6 million.

 

Full year 2013 U.S. revenues were $17.3 million up 67% over 2012 U.S. revenues of $10.4 million. 2013 revenues in Europe and the Rest of the World region were $7.2 million, a 10% improvement from the prior year revenues of $6.5 million. Revenues in Asia were $14.3 million representing growth of 277% on a year-over-year basis from the 2012 Asia revenues of $3.8 million.

 

Gross profit was $20.2 million for the full year 2013, an increase of $11.9 million over $8.3 million from the prior year. Gross margin for full year 2013 was 52.0% compared to 39.9% in full year 2012. Margin expansion was primarily driven by reduction in kit costs, amortization of fixed costs over increased volume, lab consolidation and operating efficiencies described above.

 

2013 operating expenses were $27.5 million, an increase of $6.3 million over the $21.2 million in operating expenses during the 2012 year. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by an increased investment in sales and marketing personnel, an increase in accounting and audit costs related to our initial public offering and an increase in administrative costs related to being a public company.

 

EBITDA for 2013 was $(6.8) million compared to $(12.7) million in 2012. Adjusted EBITDA was $(5.7) million for 2013 compared to $(12.1) million in the prior year. Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for 2013 include $1.9 million of accounting and audit costs related to our IPO.

 

Full year 2013 net loss was $8.7 million or $2.26 per share in comparison to a $14.9 million net loss or $8.44 per share for full year 2012. Net loss per share was based on 3,830,837 and 1,763,728 weighted average ordinary shares outstanding for 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

 

Business Outlook

 

As previously announced, we expect to report revenues of between $47 and $50 million for the full year 2014. We expect to report revenues of between $11.4 and $11.9 million for the first quarter of 2014, due in part to anticipated above average stocking orders from outside the U.S. We will continue our focus on improving our gross margins but we expect that the rate of increase will be less than in 2013. We expect that operating costs will increase as we invest proceeds from our IPO. Our investment priorities include expansion of our sales and marketing resources in the U.S. and outside the U.S., investments in our product pipeline and investments in infrastructure to support a rapidly growing public company.
