Elutia Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Financial Results: Anticipates CanGarooRM® Clearance Decision in First Half of 2024

 

SILVER SPRING, Md., March 7, 2024 — Elutia Inc. (Nasdaq: ELUT) (“Elutia” or the “Company”) today provided a business update and reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Business Highlights:

 

· Achieved strong annual revenue growth for both proprietary product lines, with sales increasing for SimpliDerm by 38% and CanGaroo by 3.4%.

· Submitted a 510(k) premarket notification to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA” or “Agency”) for CanGarooRM, Elutia’s next-generation drug-eluting biomatrix product.

· FDA review and interaction for CanGarooRM has resulted in no requests for additional data to date. The Company remains on track for a clearance decision in the first half of 2024.

· Successfully closed the divestiture of the orthobiologics business, generating gross cash proceeds of $14.6 million.

· Established a Strategic Advisory Committee of industry experts to prepare for commercial launch of CanGarooRM.

 

"After years of pioneering development, we are on the verge of introducing the drug-eluting biomatrix that promises to remove compromise from patient care," stated Dr. Randy Mills, Elutia’s Chief Executive Officer. "In 2023, we completed the groundwork for our flagship product, CanGarooRM, resulting in a high-quality submission to FDA. Since then, our interactions with the Agency have been positive, and we look forward to a clearance decision in the first half of this year."

 

Dr. Mills continued, "I’d like to thank our dedicated commercial and operational teams, who, throughout this process, have stayed laser-focused, delivering robust sales figures across our SimpliDerm and CanGaroo product lines. They are now focused on a coordinated and disciplined product rollout of CanGarooRM, ensuring its full potential is realized."

 

CanGarooRM Update

 

In December 2023, Elutia submitted a 510(k) premarket notification to the FDA for CanGarooRM following a successful pre-submission meeting with the FDA. The Company is in ongoing discussions with FDA regarding the submission. To date, clarification requests from the Agency have been limited to items within the new submission, and no additional data has been requested. Elutia expects the FDA's clearance decision in the first half of 2024 and is preparing for commercial launch.

 

CanGarooRM is uniquely positioned for success in the drug-eluting envelope market, estimated at over $600 million annually in the United States. As the second market entrant and the only product offering a combination of a biological envelope and potent antibiotics, CanGarooRM is poised to compete effectively. Surgeons particularly appreciate the handling characteristics of a natural biological product. Elutia has developed a focused launch plan, leveraging the Company’s proprietary sales force and distribution network. The Company’s commercial team, equipped with extensive product knowledge and experience, is ready to engage healthcare professionals to drive adoption.

 


 

2023 Financial Results

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 2022 (where applicable):

 

· Overall net sales were $24.7 million, compared to $23.8 million. The increase was driven by a $2.8 million increase in Women’s Health sales and a $0.3 million increase in Device Protection. Growth in Women’s Health and Device Protection was partially offset by a reduction in sales in the Cardiovascular line of business due to the commencement of the Company’s distribution agreement with LeMaitre Vascular, which provides for sales at a contracted price to the distributor, whereas sales prior to such agreement were made at end-user pricing.

· Gross margin on a GAAP basis, which includes amortization of acquired intangible assets, was 45%, compared to 49%. The reduction was primarily due to the commencement of the LeMaitre Vascular distribution agreement described above.

· Adjusted gross margin (a non-GAAP measure that excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets) was 58%, compared to 63%. A reconciliation of adjusted gross margin to gross margin is provided in the financial tables below.

· Total operating expenses were $41.6 million, compared to $46.8 million. The reduction resulted from efforts to optimize the Company’s operations, primarily in sales and marketing and research and development.

· Net loss was $37.7 million, compared to a net loss of $32.9 million.

· Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was a loss of $14.6 million, compared to a loss of $22.9 million, reflecting the significant improvement in the Company’s operational performance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from net loss certain non-operating, non-cash and non-recurring items. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss is provided in the financial tables below.

· Cash was $19.3 million as of December 31, 2023.

 

Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Results

 

For the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the same period of 2022:

 

· Overall net sales were $5.9 million, compared to $6.6 million. The decrease of 11% was primarily due to a $1.3 million decrease in sales of Cardiovascular products resulting from the commencement of the LeMaitre Vascular distribution relationship, partially offset by a $0.8 million increase in SimpliDerm sales.

· Gross margin on a GAAP basis was 36%, compared to 47%. The year-over-year reduction was primarily due to the commencement of the LeMaitre Vascular distribution relationship for the Company’s Cardiovascular products.

· Adjusted gross margin (a non-GAAP measure) was 51%, compared to 59%.

· Total operating expenses were $10.6 million, compared to $12.6 million.

· Net loss was $9.3 million, compared to a net loss of $5.4 million.

· Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was a loss of $4.5 million, compared to a loss of $4.6 million.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

 

In addition to the Company's financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides non-GAAP measures that it determines to be useful in evaluating its operating performance and liquidity. The Company presents in this press release the following non-GAAP financial measures: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit. The Company defines EBITDA as GAAP net loss excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and the Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding income from discontinued operations, stock-based compensation, FiberCel litigation costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, net of gain on debt forgiveness, loss on revaluation of warranty liability and gain on revaluation of revenue interest obligation. The Company defines adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin, respectively, excluding amortization of acquired intangible assets. The amortization of these intangible assets will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Management believes that presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company's core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. The Company uses this non-GAAP financial information to establish budgets, manage the Company's business, and set incentive and compensation arrangements. Non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental information purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP, see below “Non-GAAP Reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA” and “Non-GAAP Reconciliations of Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin.”
