Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Worldwide revenue was $26.4 million in the third quarter 2022, a 19% increase from $22.3 million in the corresponding period in 2021. U.S. revenue for the third quarter 2022 was $24.6 million, a 21% increase from $20.4 million in the corresponding period in 2021. International revenue for the third quarter 2022 was $1.8 million, a 5% decrease from $1.9 million in the corresponding period in 2021 predominantly driven by headwinds in Germany and the United Kingdom and further foreign exchange weakness.

Gross margin was 84% for the third quarter 2022, as compared to 89% in the corresponding period in 2021. Gross margin in the third quarter 2022 was impacted by lower average selling prices due to procedure, product mix, and site of service mix as well as higher freight. Gross margin also includes the impact of higher costs of the newly launched implants and higher depreciation from the new product instrument trays to support the growth of the business.

Operating expenses increased 9% to $35.8 million in the third quarter 2022, as compared to $33.0 million in the corresponding period in 2021. The increase was driven by higher headcount, increase in sales commission and stock-based compensation, increase in travel and freight costs, and research and development investment.  

Operating loss was $13.6 million in the third quarter 2022, as compared to an operating loss of $13.2 million in the corresponding period in 2021.

Net loss was $14.2 million, or $0.41 per diluted share for the third quarter 2022, as compared to a net loss of $15.9 million, or $0.48 per diluted share in the corresponding period in 2021.

Cash and marketable securities were $104.1 million and borrowings were $35.1 million as of September 30, 2022.

2022 Updated Financial Guidance

The Company expects 2022 worldwide revenue to be in the range of $104 million to $105 million, implying growth of approximately 16% to 17%. The annual revenue guidance implies fourth quarter 2022 worldwide revenue between $29.5 million and $30.5 million, reflecting growth of approximately 17% to 21% over the prior year period.
