 – Continued improvement in gross margin and ongoing cash burn trends –

SAN FRANCISCO, May 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Invitae (NYSE: NVTA), a leading medical genetics company, today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

"In the first quarter, our team continued to execute across the organization as we posted approximately 10% year-over-year growth in revenue on a pro forma basis, along with improved gross margins and reduced cash burn and we are reiterating our 2023 financial goals," said Ken Knight, president and chief executive officer of Invitae. "Looking ahead, we are focused on expanding our current business along with investing in our growth engines. We are pleased with the recent clinical developments in our PCM assay for minimal residual disease, as we continue to take steps to advance a continuum of precision oncology. Furthermore, we are working opportunistically to improve our performance through revenue cycle management and working capital improvements. We are confident that these initiatives will strengthen our foundation as we move forward with our mission."

First Quarter 2023 Financial Results

  • Generated revenue of $117.4 million in the first quarter of 2023 versus $123.7 million in the first quarter of 2022, reflecting the impact of exited businesses and geographies announced in 2022. On a pro forma basis, or after removing approximately $17 million of revenue from first quarter 2022 relating to exited businesses and geographies, first quarter 2023 revenue grew approximately 10% year-over-year.
  • GAAP gross profit was $28.9 million in the quarter, compared with $26.6 million over the same period of 2022, or 8.8% year-over-year growth. Non-GAAP gross profit was $56.2 million in the quarter, compared with $45.2 million in the first quarter of 2022, representing a year-over-year growth rate of 24.3%.
  • GAAP gross margin was 24.6% in the quarter, as compared with 21.5% in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP gross margin was 47.9% in the quarter, as compared with 36.6% in the first quarter of 2022.
  • Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities were $388.7 million as of March 31, 2023, compared to $557.1 million as of December 31, 2022.
  • Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and net changes in investments in the quarter was $171.5 million. Reported cash burn in the quarter was $193.9 million and included an outflow of $143.1 million related to financing activities. Excluding these items, ongoing cash burn would have been $50.8 million. This represents a continued improving trend since the fourth quarter of 2021. In addition to working capital improvement, in particular inventory management, ongoing cash burn in the first quarter also benefited from accounts receivable reductions of approximately $13 million associated with the realignment of the previous Archer business.
  • Revenue per patient was $463 in the quarter, compared to $416 in the first quarter of 2022, primarily as a result of our realignment efforts.
  • Total patient population as of March 31, 2023 is approximately 3.9 million with over 63% available for data sharing.

Total GAAP operating expense, which excludes cost of revenue, for the first quarter of 2023 was $204.3 million. As a result, GAAP operating expense as a percentage of revenue was 174%, compared to 194% in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP operating expense was $132.7 million for the first quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP operating expense as a percentage of revenue was 113%, compared to 169% in the first quarter of 2022.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2023 was $192.2 million, or a $0.77 net loss per share, compared to net loss of $181.9 million, or net loss per share of $0.80, for the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2023 was $93.7 million, or a $0.37 non-GAAP net loss per share, compared to a net loss of $177.4 million, or an $0.78 non-GAAP net loss per share, for the first quarter of 2022.

Financial Guidance

Management continues to expect 2023 revenue to be over $500 million, representing low double-digit year-over-year growth compared to 2022 pro forma revenue. The company also continues to expect its non-GAAP gross margin for 2023 to be between 48-50%.

In 2023, reported cash burn will be higher than ongoing cash burn as a result of the company's voluntary repayment of its $135 million term loan in the first quarter of 2023. Ongoing cash burn is expected to be the same as the company's previous guidance range of $250-275 million.

Safe Harbor Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements relating to the company's mission; the company's beliefs regarding the potential of its business, and its business priorities and initiatives and the potential benefits thereof; the company's future financial and operating results, and the drivers of future financial results; the company's focus, strategy, roadmap and product pipeline; and the company's financial guidance for 2023. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the ability of the company to successfully execute its strategic business realignment and achieve the intended benefits thereof on the expected timeframe or at all; unforeseen or greater than expected costs associated with the strategic business realignment; the risk that the disruption that may result from the realignment may harm the company's business, market share or its relationship with customers or potential customers; the impact of inflation and the current economic environment on the company's business; the company's ability to grow its business in a cost-efficient manner; the company's history of losses; the company's ability to maintain important customer relationships; the company's ability to compete; the company's failure to manage growth effectively; the company's need to scale its infrastructure in advance of demand for its tests and to increase demand for its tests; the risk that the company may not obtain or maintain sufficient levels of reimbursement for its tests; the applicability of clinical results to actual outcomes; risks associated with litigation; the company's ability to use rapidly changing genetic data to interpret test results accurately and consistently; laws and regulations applicable to the company's business; and the other risks set forth in the reports filed by the company with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and Invitae Corporation disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the company is providing several non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items that are required by GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in evaluating the company's ongoing operating results and trends. Management uses such non-GAAP information to manage the company's business and monitor its performance.

Other companies, including companies in the same industry, may not use the same non-GAAP measures or may calculate these metrics in a different manner than management or may use other financial measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of these non-GAAP measures as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, the company's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the non-GAAP reconciliations provided in the tables below and on the company's website.
