Iridex Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Aug. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Iridex Corporation (Nasdaq: IRIX), a provider of innovative ophthalmic laser-based medical products for the treatment of glaucoma and retinal diseases, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 1, 2023.
Second Quarter 2023 Highlights
Generated total revenue of $12.9 million, a decrease of 7% year-over-year
Cyclo G6® product family revenue of $3.7 million increased 5% year-over-year
41 Cyclo G6 Glaucoma Laser Systems sold, compared to 48 in the prior year period
15,500 Cyclo G6 probes sold representing a 9% revenue increase and 4% unit increase year-over-year
Retina product revenue was $6.9 million, a decrease of 9% year-over-year
16 posters presented at the World Glaucoma Congress demonstrate rising clinical interest in MicroPulse® Transcleral Laser Therapy and the Cyclo G6 product family
Cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $9.8 million as of July 1, 2023
“Our second quarter results reflect continued modest glaucoma business growth offset by declines in surgical and medical retina systems and lower royalty revenue. Softer capital equipment shipments reflected elongated purchasing cycles that led to the decline in the retina business in the quarter, but we expect capital demand to stabilize during the second half of the year,” said David Bruce, Iridex President and CEO. “While our initiatives to accelerate G6 probe utilization are taking longer to gain traction, we remain confident we are building the foundation for long-term adoption in the large population of moderate stage glaucoma patients. We are making progress with Sweep Management software system upgrades, increasing awareness of the effective dosing guidance that enables consistent clinical outcomes, and advancing toward a planned large multicenter prospective trial to further validate the safety and effectiveness of MPTLT. We believe these initiatives coupled with increasing positive proof of efficacy and safety, such as those presented at this year’s World Glaucoma Congress, will increase our future growth rate.”
Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended July 1, 2023 was $12.9 million compared to $13.8 million during the same period of the prior year. Total product revenue from the Cyclo G6 glaucoma product group was $3.7 million, an increase of 5% compared to the second quarter of 2022. Retina product revenue decreased 9% compared to the prior year period to $6.9 million, primarily driven by softness in capital equipment demand. Other revenue, decreased $0.4 million compared to the prior year period to $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily driven by the lower royalties due to expiration of licensed patents.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2023 was $5.4 million or a 41.7% gross margin, a decrease compared to $6.3 million, or a 45.6% gross margin, in the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by lower revenues, with margins reduced by production overhead absorbed by less revenue.
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2023 decreased to $8.3 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to $8.4 million in the same period of the prior year. The Company implemented cost savings measures, including a reduction in headcount which resulted in separation costs of approximately $200 thousand during the quarter, to streamline operations and extend operating runway.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2023 was $2.8 million, or $0.17 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million, or $0.14 per share, in the same period of the prior year.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $9.8 million as of July 1, 2023. Cash use of $1.2 million in the second quarter declined compared to $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2023.
Guidance for Full Year 2023
With lower than expected probe unit sales growth and capital equipment softness in the first half of the year, the Company is updating its full year 2023 expectations as follows: Cyclo G6 probe sales of 61,000 to 63,000 units representing approximately 1% to 5% growth over 2022 and Cyclo G6 systems installed base expansion of 210 to 230 systems. Total revenue for the full year is expected to be $55 million to $57 million, representing flat to 3% growth year-over-year, after adjusting for approximately $1.5 million reduction in royalty revenue. The updated financial outlook reflects stabilization in capital equipment demand and a more gradual G6 probe utilization ramp.
