Evolus Reports Third Quarter 2022 Results and Provides Business Update

  • Reported Sales Up 27% to $33.9 Million; Success of ‘Switch Your Tox’ Promotion Contributes to $3.5 Million Incremental Increase in Deferred Revenue Over Q2 and Understates Strength of Results
  • ‘Switch Your Tox’ Drives Record Consumer Rewards Redemptions and New Purchasing Accounts
  • Reiterates Full-Year 2022 Net Revenue Guidance at Top End of $143 to $150 Million Range; Lowers Non-GAAP Operating Expense Guidance to Lower Half of Range
  • Strong Cash Position of $65.6 Million Expected to Fund Company to Breakeven

Evolus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EOLS), a performance beauty company with a customer-centric approach focused on delivering breakthrough products, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 and provided a business update.

“This quarter we reported strong top-line growth and continued to gain market share while carefully managing our operating expenses as we advance toward profitability,” said David Moatazedi, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Demand for Jeuveau® remained strong even with anticipated seasonality and the return of summer travel. We remain confident we can achieve the top end of our 2022 sales guidance range of $143 to $150 million equating to a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 50%, which is roughly triple the projected toxin market growth rate.”

Moatazedi continued, “Perhaps the most significant highlight of the third quarter was the highly successful launch of our ‘Switch Your Tox’ promotional campaign. ‘Switch Your Tox’ helped drive an above-market 27% year-over-year growth rate, and when factoring for the above-normal deferred revenue this campaign required, our growth rate would have been even stronger. This campaign also helped generate the largest number of new accounts we have added in three years and drove a record 100,000 consumer redemptions in our loyalty program in the quarter. Importantly, ‘Switch Your Tox’ redemptions will continue through year-end, providing continued momentum into the fourth quarter.”

Third Quarter 2022 Highlights and Recent Developments

  • Aided by the recently launched ‘Switch Your Tox’ promotional campaign, the company’s lead sales and marketing metrics demonstrated continued momentum in Evolus’ business during the third quarter.
    • Evolus added 650 new customer accounts in the third quarter, bringing the total base since launch to more than 8,800 purchasing customers with a reorder rate that remains steady at above 70%.1
    • Overall membership in the Evolus Rewards program grew to nearly 450,000 consumers. For the quarter, total redemptions in Evolus Rewards drove a record 100,000 consumers with an equal representation of new and existing users returning for repeat treatments, demonstrating strong loyalty to Jeuveau® and illustrating the power of the program to motivate consumers.
  • As previously reported, the company completed patient enrollment in its Phase II “extra strength” Jeuveau® clinical study. A presentation of interim data is planned for early 2023 at one of the largest aesthetics meetings in the world. This study provides Evolus with the opportunity to offer the first multi-strength neurotoxin, giving customers and consumers increased treatment options.
  • During the quarter, Evolus launched commercial operations in Great Britain, the single largest market for aesthetic neurotoxins in the European region, and shipped the first customer orders for Nuceiva®. During 2023, the company expects to enter additional countries in Europe and looks forward to broadening its overall geographic presence even further.

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

  • Total net revenues for the third quarter of 2022 increased 27% to $33.9 million from $26.7 million in the third quarter of 2021 driven almost entirely by higher volumes of Jeuveau®. Compared to the second quarter, the company deferred an additional $3.5 million of revenue in the third quarter largely attributable to the ‘Switch Your Tox’ promotional campaign, which it believes understated the actual strength of its reported results. The company expects the majority of this additional deferred revenue will be realized in the fourth quarter of this year.
  • Gross profit margin and adjusted gross profit margin were 58.0% and 60.2%, respectively, both of which were impacted by the higher settlement royalty rates that concluded in mid-September 2022. Adjusted gross profit margin excludes amortization of intangible assets.
  • Operating expenses decreased to $51.8 million in the third quarter of 2022 from $58.5 million in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Non-GAAP operating expenses decreased to $33.7 million in the third quarter of 2022 from $35.4 million in the second quarter of 2022 primarily due to lower marketing and distribution expenses. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude product cost of sales, revaluation of the contingent royalty obligation expense, IPR&D expense, stock-based compensation expense, and depreciation and amortization.
  • Loss from operations was $17.9 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $21.3 million in the second quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP loss from operations in the third quarter of 2022 was $13.3 million compared to $14.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP loss from operations excludes revaluation of the contingent royalty obligation expense, IPR&D expense, stock-based compensation expense, and depreciation and amortization.
  • Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2022 were $65.6 million, compared to $84.5 million at June 30, 2022. Cash used during the quarter included inventory payments of $14.2 million to support the growth of the business, and net royalty and interest payments totaling $10.3 million. For the third quarter of 2022, net cash used for operating activities was $17.1 million, which was $3.8 million less than the amount used in the second quarter of 2022, demonstrating the company’s continued commitment to carefully managing operating expenses and keeping it on the path to achieving sustainable positive cash flow. Evolus continues to expect that its existing cash balance will fund current operations through breakeven.

Outlook

  • Based on its year-to-date performance and confidence in the resilience of the aesthetic neurotoxin market, the company continues to project full-year 2022 sales at the top end of its guidance range of $143 to $150 million, which includes a minimal contribution from international markets.
  • Evolus continues to expect its full year adjusted gross profit margin to be between 58% and 61% with a fourth quarter rate of 68% to 71% reflecting the settlement royalty rate decrease in September.
  • The company now expects full-year non-GAAP operating expenses to be in the lower half of its previous guidance range of $135 to $140 million. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude product cost of sales, revaluation of the contingent royalty obligation expense, IPR&D expense, stock-based compensation expense, and depreciation and amortization.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Evolus’ financial results are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). This press release and the reconciliation tables included in the financial schedules below include adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP loss from operations. Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit excluding amortization of an intangible asset and, as applicable, the one-time settlement payment from Daewoong. Adjusted gross profit margin is defined as adjusted gross profit as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP loss from operations exclude (i) product cost of sales, in the case of non-GAAP operating expenses only, (ii) in-process research and development, (iii) one-time settlement payment from Daewoong, (iv) the revaluation of contingent royalty obligations, (v) stock-based compensation expense, and (vi) depreciation and amortization. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, Evolus began excluding product cost of sales from its presentation of non-GAAP operating expenses; prior period amounts have been revised to conform to the current presentation. Management believes that adjusted gross profit margin is an important measure for investors because management uses adjusted gross profit margin as a key performance indicator to evaluate the profitability of sales without giving effect to costs that are not core to our cost of sales, such as the settlement payment from Daewoong, and the amortization of an intangible asset. Management believes that non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP loss from operations are useful in helping to identify the company’s core operating performance and enables management to consistently analyze the period-to-period financial performance of the core business operations. Management also believes that non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP loss from operations will enable investors to assess the company in the same way that management has historically assessed the company’s operating expenses against comparable companies with conventional accounting methodologies. The company’s definitions of adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP loss from operations have limitations as analytical tools and may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from such non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to financial statement data presented in the financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.

For a reconciliation of our historical adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP loss from operations presented herein to gross profit margin, GAAP operating expenses and GAAP loss from operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see “Reconciliation of Gross Profit Margin to Adjusted Gross Profit Margin,” “Reconciliation of GAAP Operating Expenses to Non-GAAP Operating Expenses” and “Reconciliation of GAAP (Loss) from Operations to Non-GAAP (Loss) from Operations” in the financial schedules below. In addition, this press release includes information regarding the company’s expected adjusted gross profit margin and non-GAAP operating expenses for full year 2022. Evolus has not provided a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted gross profit margin or non-GAAP operating expenses because a reconciliation of such measures to GAAP gross profit margin and GAAP operating expenses, respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, is not available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various reconciling items that would impact the forward-looking adjusted gross profit margin and non-GAAP operating expenses outlook that have not yet occurred and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Such unavailable information could have a significant impact on Evolus’ GAAP financial results.
