iRhythm Technologies Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2019 Financial Results and Provides Full Year 2020 Financial Outlook
SAN FRANCISCO, February 27, 2020 -- iRhythm Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: IRTC), a leading digital health care solutions company focused on the advancement of cardiac care, today reported financial results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2019.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2019 Highlights
• | Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019 increased 46% to $214.6 million over 2018 |
• | Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2019 increased 41% year-over-year to $59.1 million |
• | Gross margin for the full year 2019 was 75.5%, a year-over-year improvement of 180 basis points |
• | Announced participation in a new, randomized, controlled study, GUARD-AF, sponsored by the Bristol-Myers Squibb-Pfizer Alliance, to determine if earlier detection of atrial fibrillation (AFib) through screening in previously undiagnosed individuals ultimately impacts the rate of stroke, compared to usual standard medical care |
“The iRhythm team made substantial progress in 2019 driving our growth initiatives, including commercial execution, market penetration, and market expansion. Our competitive differentiation - and why physicians are selecting our Zio platform for ambulatory cardiac monitoring - can be attributed to an unrivaled combination of superior technology, clinical validation, sales, service and support,” said Kevin King, CEO. “I am confident we are in the best position to date to continue to grow our business. Our continued focus on increasing market penetration with our single Zio platform, driving operating scale through continued productivity improvements, and expanding our addressable market into new indications are key drivers as we move into 2020.”
Fourth Quarter Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2019 increased 41% to $59.1 million, from $41.8 million during the same period in 2018. The increase was primarily due to increased salesforce productivity, expansion into new accounts, improved penetration of existing accounts, and the launch of Zio AT.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $45.2 million, or 76.5% gross margin, up from $31 million, or gross margin of 74.1%, during the same period in 2018.
Operating expenses (OPEX) for the fourth quarter of 2019 were $62.9 million, compared to $44.1 million for the same period in 2018. The increase in operating expenses was driven by personnel-related costs from our sales team and sales support infrastructure, costs associated with the silent AF development project with Verily, increases in the company’s stock-based compensation expenses, costs associated with internal control efforts and bad debt expense. OPEX in the quarter was also driven by one-time charges associated with the company’s Q3’19 financial statement Revision, consulting costs attributable to revenue cycle management support and incremental bonus true-up for the year.
Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $17.3 million, or a loss of $0.65 per share, compared with net loss of $16.3 million, or a loss of $0.67 per share, for the same period in 2018.
Full Year 2019 Financial Results
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019 increased 46% to $214.6 million, from $147.3 million in 2018. The increase in revenue was primarily due to salesforce expansion, growth of new accounts, improved penetration of existing accounts, and the launch of Zio AT.
Gross profit for the year was $162.1 million, or 75.5% gross margin, up from $108.5 million, or 73.7% gross margin in 2018.
Operating expenses inclusive of Verily development for the year were $216.8 million, an increase of 41% compared to 2018. The increase in operating expenses was driven primarily by selling, general and administrative expenses used to expand the company’s sales force and support the growth in operations, costs associated with Verily development, increases to the company’s stock-based compensation expenses and costs associated with internal control development. OPEX for the year was also driven by one-time charges associated with the company’s Q3’19 financial statement Revision and consulting costs attributable to revenue cycle management support.
Net loss for 2019 was $54.6 million, or a loss of $2.16 per share, compared with net loss of $50.4 million, or a loss of $2.11 per share from 2018.
Cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments were $148.6 million as of December 31, 2019.
Guidance for Full Year 2020
iRhythm projects revenue for the full year 2020 to range from $280 million to $290 million, which represents 31% to 35% growth over the company’s prior year. Gross margins for the full year 2020 are expected to range from 76% to 77% and operating expenses for the full year 2020 to be between $265 million to $275 million including $52.5 million to $57.5 million for research and development and $212.5 million to $217.5 million for selling, general and administrative expense. These operating expense targets are inclusive of $15 million in costs associated with the company's silent AF development project with Verily.
iRhythm expects sales headcount to reach approximately 160 by year end 2020.
