Updates since our last earnings release

  • Commenced shipping of the Onso platform, an innovative benchtop short-read DNA sequencing system that provides users with an extraordinary level of accuracy using PacBio's proprietary sequencing by binding (SBB) technology.  PacBio expects to complete the installation of the first Onso instrument and ship related consumables later this month. The milestone payment associated with PacBio's acquisition of Omniome will be triggered once both the Onso instrument and related consumables have been shipped.

  • Entered into an agreement to acquire Apton Biosystems, Inc. (Apton), a private company developing a high-throughput short-read sequencer.  PacBio plans to integrate SBB chemistry with Apton's advanced optics and imaging technologies to accelerate our development of a highly accurate, high throughput, short-read sequencer.

  • Announced that Bioscientia, a leading global provider of clinical laboratory testing services for diagnostics based in Germany, implemented Revio to sequence several thousand human genomes per year.

  • Collaborated with Radboud University Medical Center (Radboudumc), one of Europe's largest academic centers for human genetics, to explore genetic causes of rare and genetic diseases. Radboudumc plans to study the potential clinical utility and better understand the health economics of bringing highly accurate HiFi sequencing in a clinical setting on a large scale.

  • Appointed Olga Troyanskaya, Ph.D., Professor of Computer Science and the Lewis Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics at Princeton University to PacBio's Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) and Jay Shendure, Ph.D., Professor of Genome Sciences at the University of Washington, as Chair. SAB provides guidance to the research and development efforts at PacBio, including critical feedback, advice, and expertise on future technological and scientific direction to inform PacBio's priorities and roadmaps for current and future products.

  • Issued $441 million principal amount of 1.375% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 in exchange for $441 million principal amount of 1.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (2028 Notes) in a privately negotiated exchange deal with a holder of PacBio's 2028 Notes.

"PacBio continued to gain momentum in the second quarter as Revio demand drove record quarterly revenue," said Christian Henry, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The team continues to execute on scaling manufacturing and delivering the new product to customers, and we're seeing customers ramp sequencing on Revio. I'm also pleased to share that we've commenced shipment of Onso today, our highly differentiated short-read benchtop sequencer developed as a result of our acquisition of Omniome in 2021. I'm also excited to announce that we entered into an agreement to acquire Apton, enabling us to accelerate the development of a high-throughput instrument capable of sequencing billions of reads per flow cell."

Statement regarding use of non‐GAAP financial measures

The Company reports non‐GAAP results for basic and diluted net income and loss per share, net income, net loss, gross margins, gross profit and operating expenses in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or because it believes that such information is superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.  The Company believes that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.

The Company's financial measures under GAAP include substantial charges that are listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures included in this press release. The amortization of acquired intangible assets excluded from GAAP financial measures relates to acquired intangible assets that were recorded as part of the purchase accounting during the year ended December 31, 2021. Such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation and its amortization will recur in future periods until they are fully amortized. Management has excluded the effects of these items in non‐GAAP measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance. In addition, management uses non-GAAP measures to compare the Company's performance relative to forecasts and strategic plans and to benchmark its performance externally against competitors.

The Company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non‐GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. A reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements, including statements relating to the availability, uses, accuracy, coverage, advantages, quality or performance of, or benefits or expected benefits of using, PacBio products or technologies; PacBio's acquisition of Apton, including the potential benefits of adding short-read, high-throughput sequencing technologies to PacBio's product portfolio and the synergies such technologies may provide with PacBio's existing offerings; expectations with respect to customer demand for our products and technologies and growth in our business; and the impact of new products, including the Revio, Onso and Apton systems. Reported results and orders for the Revio and Onso systems should not be considered an indication of future performance. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because they are subject to assumptions, risks, and uncertainties and could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from currently anticipated results, including, challenges inherent in developing, manufacturing, launching, marketing and selling new products, and achieving anticipated new sales, including the Onso system; potential cancellation of existing instrument orders; assumptions, risks and uncertainties related to the ability to attract new customers and retain and grow sales from existing customers; risks related to our acquisition of Apton and our ability to successfully execute on such acquisition, such as the failure to successfully integrate Apton or to otherwise realize the anticipated benefits of the Apton acquisition; the impact of U.S. export restrictions on the shipment of PacBio products to certain countries; rapidly changing technologies and extensive competition in genomic sequencing; unanticipated increases in costs or expenses; interruptions or delays in the supply of components or materials for, or manufacturing of, PacBio products and products under development; potential product performance and quality issues and potential delays in development timelines; the possible loss of key employees, customers, or suppliers; customers and prospective customers curtailing or suspending activities using our products; third-party claims alleging infringement of patents and proprietary rights or seeking to invalidate PacBio's patents or proprietary rights; and other risks associated with macroeconomic conditions such as uncertain capital markets, pandemic-related lockdowns, heightened inflation, war in Europe;  and risks associated with international operations, among others.  Additional factors that could materially affect actual results can be found in PacBio's most recent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including PacBio's most recent reports on Forms 8-K, 10-K, and 10-Q, and include those listed under the caption "Risk Factors."
