Endologix Reports 10% Revenue Growth for the First Quarter 2015
Total Revenue Grew 15% Constant Currency, Including 32% Growth in Europe


Irvine, Calif. (April 29, 2015) - Endologix, Inc. (NASDAQ: ELGX), developer and marketer of innovative treatments for aortic disorders, today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

John McDermott, Endologix Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “During the first quarter we continued to drive adoption of both our EVAR and EVAS products for the treatment of AAA, led by strong performance from the Nellix® Endovascular Sealing System in Europe, where sales grew 32% year-over-year in constant currency. We also made good progress with our clinical and new product growth initiatives in the U.S., which we expect to provide a positive catalyst for growth in the second half of the year. Lastly, we filed the first module of the Nellix PMA in the first quarter and remain on track for potential FDA approval in late 2016.”

Financial Results

Global revenue in the first quarter of 2015 was $36.7 million, a 10% increase from $33.3 million in the first quarter of 2014. On a constant currency basis first quarter revenue increased 15%.

U.S. revenue in the first quarter of 2015 was $25.1 million, a 5% increase compared with $24.0 million in the first quarter of 2014. International revenue was $11.5 million, a 24% increase compared to $9.3 million in the first quarter of 2014. The international sales increase was primarily attributable to strong sales growth in Europe, with European revenue of $7.2 million, a 10% increase as compared to $6.6 million in the first quarter of 2014, and 32% growth on a constant currency basis.

Gross profit was $26.9 million in the first quarter of 2015, which represents a gross margin of 73.4%, compared to gross margin of 73.0% in the first quarter of 2014. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by operational efficiencies created by increased production volume.

Total operating expenses were $36.6 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared to $29.6 million in the first quarter of 2014. The increase in operating expenses was driven primarily by expansion of sales and clinical personnel in the U.S. and Europe and by research, development, clinical and regulatory expenses.

Endologix reported a net loss for the first quarter of 2015 of $11.2 million, or $(0.17) per share, compared with a net income of $5.3 million, or $0.08 per share, for the first quarter of 2014. The first quarter 2015 net loss includes Nellix contingent consideration, interest expense, foreign currency loss and business development expenses of $1.9 million, while the first quarter 2014 included other income of $10.8 million, or $0.17 per share, primarily Nellix contingent consideration. Endologix reported Adjusted Net Loss (non-GAAP and defined below) for the first quarter of 2015 of $9.3 million, or $(0.14) per share, compared with an Adjusted Net Loss for the first quarter of 2014 of $5.5 million, or $(0.09) per share.

Total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $73.7 million as of March 31, 2015, compared to $86.7 million as of December 31, 2014.

Financial Guidance

Endologix is reiterating its full year 2015 financial guidance. Endologix anticipates 2015 constant currency revenue to be in the range of $163 million to $168 million, representing constant currency growth of 10% to 14% from 2014, and reported revenue in the range of $159 million to $165 million, or growth of 8% to 12% from 2014, based on current and expected foreign currency exchange rates. Endologix anticipates GAAP Loss Per Share of $(0.64) to $(0.69) and an Adjusted Loss Per Share (non-GAAP and defined below) of $(0.51) to $(0.56).

About Endologix

Endologix, Inc. develops and manufactures minimally invasive treatments for aortic disorders. Endologix's focus is endovascular stent grafts for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). AAA is a weakening of the wall of the aorta, the largest artery in the body, resulting in a balloon-like enlargement. Once AAA develops, it continues to enlarge and, if left untreated, becomes increasingly susceptible to rupture. The overall patient mortality rate for ruptured AAA is approximately 80%, making it a leading cause of death in the U.S. Additional information can be found on Endologix's website at www.endologix.com.

The Nellix® EndoVascular Aneurysm Sealing System has obtained CE Mark in the EU and is only approved as an investigational device in the United States.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Endologix's management believes that the non-GAAP measures of (1) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)", (2) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share”, (3) “Adjusted EBITDA", and (4) "Adjusted EBITDA Per Share" enhance an investor's overall understanding of Endologix's financial and operating performance and its future prospects by (i) being more reflective of core operating performance and (ii) being more comparable with financial results over various periods.  Endologix's management uses these financial measures for strategic decision making, forecasting future financial results, and evaluating current period financial and operating performance. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share Definitions:

"GAAP" is generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

(1) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)" is a non-GAAP measure defined by Endologix as net income (loss) under GAAP, excluding: (i) the fair value adjustment to the Nellix acquisition contingent consideration; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; (iii) foreign currency (gains) or losses; (iv) legal settlement costs; (v) contract termination and business acquisition expenses; and (vi) business development expenses, including licensing costs related to research and development activities.

In the three months ended March 31, 2015, this GAAP adjustment to net loss specifically represents: (i) the fair value adjustment to the Nellix acquisition contingent consideration liability; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; (iii) foreign currency losses; and (iv) business development expenses.

In the three months ended March 31, 2014, this GAAP adjustment to net income specifically represents: (i) the fair value adjustment to the Nellix acquisition contingent consideration liability due primarily to the decrease in the Endologix common stock price as the contingent liability consideration was payable in Endologix common stock; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; and (iii) foreign currency gains.

In future periods, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) will continue to exclude: (i) the fair value adjustments to the Nellix contingent consideration liability; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; (iii) foreign currency (gains) or losses; (iv) legal settlement costs; (v) contract termination and business acquisition expenses; (vi) business development expenses; and (vii) other non-recurring expenses or income, as described by Endologix.

(2) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Share" is a non-GAAP measure defined by Endologix as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by the average shares outstanding (basic and diluted, as applicable under GAAP) for the corresponding period.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Per Share Definitions:

(3) “Adjusted EBITDA” is a non-GAAP measure defined by Endologix as “Adjusted Net Income (Loss)” plus income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and stock-based compensation expense.

(4) “Adjusted EBITDA per Share” is a non-GAAP measure defined by Endologix as Adjusted EBITDA divided by average shares outstanding (basic and diluted, as applicable under GAAP) for the corresponding period.
