Treace Medical Concepts Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

PONTE VEDRA, Fla., Nov. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (“Treace” or the “Company”) (NasdaqGS: TMCI), a medical technology company driving a fundamental shift in the surgical treatment of hallux valgus (commonly known as bunions), today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Recent Highlights:

  • Revenue of $33.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, a 53% increase over the same period last year. Blended average revenue per Lapiplasty® procedure kit sold was $5,794, a 6% increase over the same period last year.
  • Gross margin of 80.0% in the third quarter 2022.
  • Third quarter revenue contribution from direct sales channel, the industry’s only direct bunion-focused salesforce, increased to 74% of sales compared to 53% during the third quarter 2021.
  • Showcased next generation Lapiplasty® Micro-Incision instrumentation and complementary SpeedPlate™ fixation implant platform at the September 2022 American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Annual Meeting. The SpeedPlate™ System is pending FDA 510(k) clearance and not yet available for sale in the United States.
  • Presented new interim ALIGN3D™ Lapiplasty® patient data demonstrating an 81% decrease in pain; 82% and 84% improvement in walking/standing and social interaction scores, respectively, at 24 months (n=107); and a low recurrence rate of 1.4% (2 out of 144 patients) observed post-surgery.
  • Announced the appointment of two new independent members to the Board of Directors; Lance A. Berry and Jane E. Kiernan.
  • Granted two additional U.S. patents in the third quarter on instrumented bunion correction techniques. Patent portfolio expands to 38 granted U.S. patents and over 45 pending U.S. patent applications as of the end of the third quarter.

“We are pleased with the continued momentum of our business as revenue increased 53% in the third quarter and 51% for the first nine months of 2022. Our strong results benefited from our strategic investments in the industry’s only bunion-focused direct sales channel, targeted R&D initiatives and direct-to-consumer programs which we believe continues to position us for sustained growth as we scale our operations,” said John T. Treace, CEO, Founder and Board Member of Treace.

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue for the third quarter of 2022 was $33.1 million, representing an increase of 53% compared to $21.6 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by an increased number of Lapiplasty® procedure kits sold as a result of an expanded surgeon customer base and increased blended average selling prices due to increased adoption of our newer technologies and expanding product line.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2022 was $26.4 million, representing an increase of 52% compared to a gross profit of $17.4 million in the third quarter of 2021. Gross margin decreased to 80.0% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 80.4% in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to an increase in allocations of payroll and related expenses and an increase in capitalized surgical instrument depreciation, which were partially offset by a decrease in royalty expense in relation to products sold in the quarter and lower inventory and obsolescence provisions.

Total operating expenses were $37.7 million in the third quarter of 2022, including sales and marketing (S&M) expenses of $25.0 million, research and development (R&D) expenses of $3.8 million, and general and administrative (G&A) expenses of $8.9 million. This compared to total operating expenses of $22.8 million, including S&M expenses of $16.0 million, R&D expenses of $2.5 million, and G&A expenses of $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2021. Increased operating expenses in the third quarter of 2022 reflect increased investments in our commercial initiatives as well as other G&A investments supporting our growing business.

Third quarter net loss attributable to common stockholders was ($12.1) million, or ($0.22) per share, compared to ($6.4) million, or ($0.12) per share, for the same period of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of ($8.2) million in the third quarter, compared to a loss of ($4.4) million for the same period in 2021. See below for additional information and a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information.

Cash and cash equivalents were $88.5 million as of September 30, 2022.

Financial Outlook
Treace is raising its full-year 2022 revenue guidance to $135 million to $138 million, which represents approximately 43% to 46% growth over the Company’s 2021 revenue. This compares to the prior revenue guidance of $130 million to $134 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this earnings release presents Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net loss before depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, interest expense, taxes and debt extinguishment loss. This earnings release also presents net loss attributable to common stockholders excluding the debt extinguishment loss on an aggregate and per share basis (“Adjusted Net Loss”). Non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss are presented in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and trends, as well as for making planning decisions. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss help to identify underlying trends in the Company’s business that may otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses and other items that it excludes in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss. Accordingly, the Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by the Company’s management in their financial and operational decision-making. The Company also presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes investors, analysts and rating agencies consider them to be a useful metrics in measuring the Company’s performance against other companies and its ability to meet its debt service obligations.

There are limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may exclude significant expenses required by GAAP to be recognized in the Company’s financial statements, and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non‐GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Reconciliations between GAAP and non‐GAAP results are presented below.
