PROCEPT BioRobotics Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Financial Results

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., March 8, 2022 -- PROCEPT® BioRobotics (Nasdaq: PRCT) (the “Company”), a surgical robotics company focused on advancing patient care by developing transformative solutions in urology, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021.

Recent Highlights

Revenue of $10.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 and $34.5 million for the full year of 2021, compared to $3.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively, from the same periods of 2020
U.S. system and rental revenue of $5.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year period
U.S. handpiece and consumables revenue of $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $0.8 million in the prior year period
Announced positive 5-year WATER Study data on February 14, 2022
Issued 2022 total revenue guidance range of $54.0 million to $58.0 million

“We are very pleased with the results we delivered in 2021 and continue to see positive momentum in the first quarter of 2022,” said Reza Zadno, Chief Executive Officer. “We also achieved a number of critical milestones over the last few months, including approximately doubling the size of our field-based sales force and announcing 5-year WATER Study data - which highlights the durability, safety and efficacy of Aquablation therapy and demonstrates IPSS superiority compared to TURP in prostates larger than 50 mL. We believe these catalysts will accelerate the adoption of our technology to become the standard of care for BPH.”

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $10.1 million, compared to $3.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily driven by system sales to new hospital customers and increased utilization among existing customers. U.S. system revenue was $5.0 million, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year period. As of December 31, 2021, the install base of Aquabeam Robotic Systems in the U.S. was 78 units. U.S. handpiece and consumable revenue was $3.4 million, compared to $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. International revenue was $1.4 million, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year period.

Gross margin for the fourth quarter 2021 was 44.5% compared to 14.6% in the prior year period. Gross margin improvement was primarily attributable to the growth in revenues, which allowed the Company to spread the fixed portion of its manufacturing and overhead costs over more production units.
Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2021 were $21.3 million, compared with $13.7 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by increased selling, general and administrative expenses to expand the sales organization and increased expenses associated with being a public company.
Net loss was ($18.3) million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to ($15.3) million in the prior year period.
Cash and short-term investments as of December 31, 2021 totaled $304.3 million, while long-term borrowings totaled $50.0 million.
Full Year 2021 Financial Results

Revenue for the full year 2021 was $34.5 million, compared to $7.7 million for the full year 2020. The growth was primarily driven by increases in U.S. revenues, attributable to the expansion of the U.S. sales force and improved U.S. reimbursement coverage in 2021.

Gross margin for full year 2021 was 46.0%, compared to a negative 16.3% for the full year 2020. Gross margin improvement was primarily attributable to the growth in revenues.
Operating expenses were $70.0 million for the full year 2021, compared to $46.5 million for the full year 2020, an increase of 50.5% driven primarily by headcount increases and public company operating costs.
Net loss was ($59.9) million for the full year 2021, compared to ($53.0) million for the full year 2020.
First Quarter 2022 Revenue Guidance
The Company projects revenue for the first quarter of 2022 to be in the range of $12.0 million to $12.5 million






Full Year 2022 Financial Guidance

The Company projects full year 2022 revenue to be in the range of $54.0 million to $58.0 million and gross margin to be in the range of 47.0% to 49.0%
Full year 2022 operating expenses projected to be approximately $105.0 million, which includes approximately $12.5 million in stock-based compensation expense
Full year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA loss expected to be in the range of ($63.0) million to ($60.0) million

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). For more information about the Company’s use of non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section below titled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited).”

About PROCEPT BioRobotics Corporation
PROCEPT is a surgical robotics company focused on advancing patient care by developing transformative solutions in urology. PROCEPT develops, manufactures and sells the AquaBeam Robotic System, an advanced, image-guided, surgical robotic system for use in minimally invasive urologic surgery with an initial focus on treating benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH. BPH is the most common prostate disease and impacts approximately 40 million men in the United States. PROCEPT designed Aquablation therapy to deliver effective, safe and durable outcomes for males suffering from lower urinary tract symptoms, or LUTS, due to BPH that are independent of prostate size and shape or surgeon experience. PROCEPT has developed a significant and growing body of clinical evidence, which includes nine clinical studies and over 100 peer-reviewed publications, supporting the benefits and clinical advantages of Aquablation therapy.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
This press release references Adjusted EBITDA, a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation. Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

The Company believes that presenting Adjusted EBITDA provides useful supplemental information to investors about the Company in understanding and evaluating its 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 its management in financial and operational decision making. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP measures and their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore any non-GAAP measures the Company uses may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Forward Looking Statements
This release contains forward‐looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws, including with respect to the Company’s projected financial performance for the first quarter and full year 2022, statements regarding the potential utilities, values, benefits and advantages of Aquablation® therapy performed using PROCEPT’s products, including AquaBeam® Robotic System, which involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results and expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements.
