IRIDEX Announces 2018 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Results
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 5, 2019 -- IRIDEX Corporation (Nasdaq: IRIX) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 29, 2018.
Fourth Quarter Highlights
|
• |
Shipped a record 12,300 Cyclo G6 probes |
|
• |
Shipped 122 Cyclo G6 Glaucoma Laser Systems |
|
• |
Revenue of $11.5 million, a 12% increase year-over-year |
“I am pleased with the accomplishments of our team in 2018. We took significant steps to grow our market share and future opportunity in glaucoma. The efforts we have made on the commercial front combined with the substantial clinical data supporting our G6 and MicroPulse® technology are increasing the awareness and acceptance of our G6 platform, as evidenced by the growth in sales of both G6 systems and probes,” said William M. Moore, President and CEO. “In 2019 we look to further leverage our position to grow the installed base, increase probe utilization and introduce new products to enhance our portfolio.”
Fourth Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended December 29, 2018 increased 12% to $11.5 million from $10.2 million during the same period of the prior year. The increase in revenue was driven by growth from G6 product revenues and complemented by growth in retina product revenues.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $4.7 million, or 41.0% gross margin, compared to $2.2 million, or 21.2% gross margin, in the same period of the prior year. The improvement in gross margin was due primarily to the elimination of costs associated with the voluntary product recall, partially offset by the impact of a shift in product mix.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $7.6 million compared to $7.4 million in the same period of the prior year. This increase is attributable to investments to support the Company’s commercial infrastructure, including increased sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.
Loss from operations for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $2.9 million, compared to loss from operations of $5.2 million for the same period of the prior year.
Full Year 2018 Financial Results
Exhibit 99.1
Revenue for the year ended December 29, 2018 increased 2.4% to $42.6 million from $41.6 million in 2017. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by growth from Cyclo G6 product revenues, partially offset by a decrease in retina product revenues.
Gross profit for the full year 2018 was $17.5 million, or 41.0% gross margin, compared to $15.5 million, or 37.3% gross margin, for the prior year. The improvement in gross margin was due primarily to lower manufacturing costs and the elimination of costs associated with the voluntary product recall in the prior year period, partially offset by the impact of a shift in geographic mix.
Operating expenses for 2018 were $30.3 million compared to $28.4 million in the prior year. This increase is attributable to investments to support the Company’s commercial infrastructure, including increased sales and marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses.
Loss from operations for 2018 was $12.9 million, compared to loss from operations of $12.9 million in the prior year.
Cash and cash equivalents were $21.2 million as of December 29, 2018.
IRIDEX projects Cyclo G6 probe shipments of 58,000 to 63,000 and projects Cyclo G6 system shipments of 475 to 525 in 2019. Total revenue for the full year is expected to be $43 million to $46 million.
