MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Aug. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Iridex Corporation (Nasdaq: IRIX) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 2, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

  • Total revenue of $13.8 million, an increase of 2% over the prior year period
  • Gross Margin was 45.6% compared to 45.5% in the prior year period
  • Cyclo G6® product family revenue of $3.5 million, a decrease of 3% year-over-year
    • 15,000 Cyclo G6 probes sold, a 6% decrease year-over-year and a 2% increase quarter-over-quarter
    • 48 Cyclo G6 Glaucoma Laser Systems sold, compared to 47 in the prior year quarter
  • Retina product revenue was relatively flat year-over-year at $7.5 million
  • Net Cash use of $2.7 million resulting in cash balance on July 2, 2022 of $18.0 million
    • Cash reduction includes $1.1 million increase in inventories to mitigate against potential supply-chain issues
  • Achieved regulatory clearance to market and sell the Cyclo G6 Platform in China
    • Sold initial systems and probes and conducted clinical launch meetings with 70 physicians
  • Hired new VP of Marketing and added five sales reps worldwide

“Softer growth in the second quarter of 2022 demonstrates the tougher business environment we faced after several quarters of strong results and record revenue. Macro headwinds impacted our international business and a COVID surge hampered procedure volumes during the second half of the quarter as capacity limitations and patient cancellations rose,” said David Bruce, President and CEO. “The continued traction we are achieving, however, with our strengthened U.S. and international commercial network leaves us confident we are tracking for a stronger second half of the year. We continue to make steady progress building physician adoption of our non-incisional approach to treating glaucoma and retinal disease worldwide.”

“In June we achieved regulatory clearance to market and sell our Cyclo G6 platform in China by its National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). This long-anticipated milestone is a significant catalyst for Iridex as it opens up a vast new population of glaucoma patients that can benefit from our MicroPulse Transcleral Laser Therapy (TLT),” continued Bruce. “We are also excitedly preparing for the launch of our new suite of retina laser systems at the upcoming AAO Conference starting September 30 th .”

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended July 2, 2022, increased 2% to $13.8 million from $13.4 million during the same period of the prior year.

Total product revenue from the Cyclo G6 glaucoma product family was $3.5 million, 3% lower than second quarter of 2021. The year-over-year decline was driven by lower OUS probe sales relative to a record high in Q2 2021 but was still the second highest OUS volume on record. Retina product revenue in the second quarter was $7.5 million compared to $7.6 million in the prior year. Other revenue, which includes royalties, services, and other legacy products, increased 22% to $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in other revenue resulted from higher amortized revenue recognition from the sale of distribution rights to Topcon plus higher service and other product revenue.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2022 increased 3% to $6.3 million, or a 45.6% gross margin, compared to $6.1 million, a 45.5% gross margin in the same period of the prior year.

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2022 increased 16% to $8.4 million compared to $7.2 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase is the result of the expansion of sales and marketing programs and in continued R&D investment in PASCAL, as well as other new product development initiatives.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $2.2 million, or $0.14 per share, compared to a net income of $1.4 million or $0.09 per share, in the same period of the prior year. The net income last year was due to one-time inclusion of $2.5 million non-operating gain from PPP loan forgiveness.

Updated Guidance for Full Year 2022
Iridex now expects total revenue for fiscal year 2022 to range from $56 million to $58 million, reflecting growth of 4% to 8% over fiscal year 2021. This compares to the previous range of $57 million to $59 million. Cyclo G6 probe sales are now expected to range from 61,000 to 63,000, representing 5% to 8% growth. This compares to the previous range of 67,000 to 70,000. The Company continues to expect Glaucoma Laser System installed base to expand by 225 to 250 in 2022.
