Axonics Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Axonics, Inc. (Nasdaq: AXNX), a medical technology company that develops and commercializes innovative and minimally invasive products to treat bladder and bowel dysfunction, today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

“Our commercial team continued to execute at a high level in the first quarter, generating revenue growth of 29% year over year across our portfolio of incontinence products,” said Raymond W. Cohen, chief executive officer. “Our growth was driven by higher utilization and share of wallet for existing sacral neuromodulation customers and the onboarding of new accounts. In addition, gross margin expanded to 75.8%, a new record, as we benefited from higher yields that were achieved through the diligent efforts of our manufacturing and operations team in Irvine.”

Mr. Cohen continued, “We remain confident that our commitment to innovation, quality, direct-to-consumer advertising and providing strong clinical support will continue to drive market expansion. We look forward to the global impact we can make as part of Boston Scientific as we endeavor to bring our life-changing incontinence therapies to more patients than ever before.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

  • Net revenue was $91.4 million, an increase of 29% compared to the prior year period.
    • Sacral neuromodulation revenue was $71.7 million, an increase of 30% compared to the prior year period.
    • Bulkamid revenue was $19.7 million, an increase of 27% compared to the prior year period.
  • Gross margin was 75.8% compared to 74.3% in the prior year period.
  • Operating expenses were $88.4 million and included $3.8 million of acquisition-related costs related to the Boston Scientific merger. Operating expenses were $66.9 million in the prior year period and included $1.8 million of acquisition-related costs.
  • Net loss was $19.1 million compared to a net loss of $9.2 million in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $3.0 million compared to $0.9 million in the prior year period.
    • Due to the pending merger with Boston Scientific, Axonics stopped issuing new equity grants to employees as of January 2024. In 1Q24, approximately $6 million of compensation expense, as previously disclosed in Schedule 14A on January 8, 2024, that would normally have been issued as equity compensation shifted to cash compensation and is added back to adjusted EBITDA.
  • Cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash were $349 million as of March 31, 2024.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Axonics’ consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), Axonics provides certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release as supplemental financial metrics.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net loss before other income/expense (including interest), income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs, cash compensation in lieu of equity compensation due to pending merger, acquired in-process research and development expense, loss on disposal of property and equipment, and expense related to impairment of intangible assets. Management believes that in order to properly understand short-term and long-term financial trends, investors may want to consider the impact of these excluded items in addition to GAAP measures. The excluded items vary in frequency and/or impact on our results of operations and management believes that the excluded items are typically not reflective of our ongoing core business operations and financial condition. Further, management uses adjusted EBITDA for both strategic and annual operating planning. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA reported in this release to the most comparable GAAP measure for the respective periods appears in the table captioned “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA” later in this release.

The non-GAAP financial measures used by Axonics may not be the same or calculated in the same manner as those used and calculated by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Axonics’ financial results prepared and reported in accordance with GAAP. We urge investors to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
