Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue for the third quarter of 2022 was $18.7 million, an increase of $5.6 million, or 43%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. Surgical Glaucoma revenue was $17.1 million, an increase of 37% compared to the prior year period and 7% compared to the second quarter. The growth was primarily driven by an increase in both the number of facilities ordering the OMNI Surgical System and utilization per ordering facility. Dry Eye revenue was $1.6 million, an increase of 145% from the previous year and 21% from the second quarter. The growth was primarily driven by increases in sales of the Tear Care System to both new and reordering customers.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2022 was $15.7 million compared to $11.0 million for the third quarter of 2021. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2022 was 84%, in line with the same period of the prior year.
Operating expenses were $37.6 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $25.1 million in the same period the prior year, representing a 50.0% increase. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues increased from 191.4% in the third quarter of 2021 to 201.3% in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by additions to personnel and continued investment in R&D and SG&A to support the Company’s growth, including stock-based compensation of $3.2 million compared to $1.9 million in the prior year period.
Net loss was $22.2 million in the third quarter of 2022 ($0.46 per share), as compared to $17.2 million in the same prior year period ($0.43 per share).
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $199.8 million and total debt was $33.2 million as of September 30, 2022.
2022 Financial Guidance
Sight Sciences now projects revenue for the full year 2022 to range from $70 million to $72 million, which represents growth of approximately 43% to 47% compared to 2021. This compares to the prior expectation for full year 2022 revenue to range from $68 million to $72 million.
