Menlo Park, Calif. – February 10, 2020 – Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. (NASDAQ: PACB) today announced financial results for the quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Reported revenue is consistent with the Company’s press release issued on January 11, 2021.

Q4 2020 Financial Highlights

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $27.1 million, representing a 42% increase sequentially compared with $19.1 million for the third quarter of 2020 and a 3% decrease compared with $27.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company placed 35 Sequel II/IIe systems during the fourth quarter, bringing the total installed base of Sequel II/IIe systems up to 203 as of December 31, 2020, compared with 168 as of September 30, 2020.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $11.4 million, representing a 61% increase sequentially compared with $7.1 million for the third quarter of 2020 and a 12% decrease compared with $12.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2020 was 42%, compared to 37% for the third quarter of 2020 and 46% for the fourth quarter of 2019.

Operating expenses totaled $35.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $31.2 million for the third quarter of 2020 and $30.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020, third quarter of 2020 and fourth quarter of 2019 included non-cash stock-based compensation of $4.8 million, $4.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $74.9 million, compared to a net loss of $23.7 million for the third quarter of 2020 and a net loss of $0.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase in net income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily driven by the recognition of the $98.0 million Reverse Termination Fee received from Illumina in January 2020 and reflected as other income after the associated contingency clauses lapsed on October 1, 2020. 

Basic and diluted net income per share for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $0.40 per share and $0.37 per share, respectively, compared to basic and diluted net loss of $0.14 per share and $0.00 per share for the third quarter of 2020and the fourth quarter of 2019, respectively.

The Company received $93.6 million in net proceeds from an underwritten public offering of its common stock in November 2020.  Cash, cash equivalents and investments, excluding short-term restricted cash and long-term restricted cash, at December 31, 2020 totaled $318.8 million, compared to $208.6 million at September 30, 2020 and $49.1 million at December 31, 2019.

Recent Company Highlights

·

As separately announced, SB Management, a subsidiary of SoftBank Group Corp., will make an investment of $900 million in convertible senior notes to support the Company’s future growth initiatives. 

·

The Company announced a multi-year collaboration with Invitae Corporation to begin development of a production-scale high-throughput sequencing platform leveraging the power of PacBio’s highly accurate HiFi sequencing to expand Invitae’s whole genome testing capabilities. 

·

Mark Van Oene joined PacBio as Chief Operating Officer and Peter Fromen joined the Company as Chief Commercial Officer, both newly established roles which expand the company’s management strength.

·

Wellcome Sanger Institute committed to purchase seven new Sequel IIe systems to support the Darwin Tree of Life initiative, making it one of the world’s largest SMRT sequencing facilities.                     

Commenting on the announcement, Christian Henry, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pacific Biosciences said, “Our financial performance in the fourth quarter was above our expectations and we were pleased that the global pandemic did not significantly impact our business in the quarter. We are thrilled to have started the new year with a strategic partnership with Invitae and a transformative investment from SoftBank.”



Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic


 

Financial results for the twelve months of 2020 were negatively impacted as many of our customers in multiple regions around the world shut down operations for various periods of time in efforts to curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. This resulted in lower product revenues of $65.4 million for the twelve months of 2020 compared to $77.7 million for the same period of 2019. Uncertainties associated with the pandemic, including recent resurgences in infection rates, may cause further impacts to our operations and financial results.
