Artivion Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

First Quarter Highlights:

•Achieved revenue of $97.4 million in the first quarter of 2024 versus $83.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, an increase of 17% on a GAAP basis and 16% on a non-GAAP constant currency basis

•Net income was $7.5 million or $0.18 per fully diluted share and non-GAAP net income was $2.6 million or $0.06 per fully diluted share in the first quarter of 2024

•Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased 60% to $17.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $10.8 million in the first quarter of 2023

•Revised FY24 revenue guidance to 9% to 12% year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis, an increase of 0.5% at the midpoint

ATLANTA, GA – (May 6, 2024) – Artivion, Inc. (NYSE: AORT), a leading cardiac and vascular surgery company focused on aortic disease, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“We are very pleased with our first quarter results as we maintained growth momentum and executed on key operational priorities. Revenue growth in the first quarter was driven by year-over-year constant currency growth in tissue processing of 26% and stent grafts of 19% compared to the first quarter of 2023. We also saw revenue strength across the Latin America region which grew 22% in the first quarter on a constant currency basis compared to last year,” said Pat Mackin, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Mackin added, “In addition to our strong commercial results, we were pleased to see positive long-term results from the On-X aortic valve post-market clinical study, the results of which were presented at AATS in April. This study showed that the use of the On-X aortic valve lowers the risk of major bleeding by 87% as compared to historic control further demonstrating the clinical superiority of our aortic portfolio.”

Mr. Mackin concluded, “In light of our strong first quarter performance, we are raising the midpoint of our full year revenue expectations and remain confident in our ability to meet or exceed our adjusted EBITDA target for 2024.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Total revenues for the first quarter of 2024 were $97.4 million, an increase of 17% on a GAAP basis and 16% on a non-GAAP constant currency basis, both compared to the first quarter of 2023.

Net income for the first quarter of 2024 was $7.5 million, or $0.18 per fully diluted common share, compared to net loss of ($13.5) million, or ($0.33) per fully diluted common share for the first quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2024 was $2.6 million, or $0.06 per fully diluted common share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $769,000, or $0.02 per fully diluted common share for the first quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2024 includes pretax losses related to foreign currency revaluation of $1.4 million.

2024 Financial Outlook

Artivion is raising the lower end of its revenue guidance and now expects constant currency revenue growth of between 9% to 12% for the full year 2024, compared to the 8% to 12% previously provided. Growth rates are compared to 2023. The Company expects revenues to be in the range of $386 to $396 million compared to the previously articulated range of $382 to $396 million. At current rates, the Company expects negligible year-over-year currency impact on the full year 2024 revenues.

Additionally, Artivion continues to expect non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to increase between 26% and 34% for the full year 2024 compared to 2023, resulting in 2024 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in the range of $68 to $72 million.

The Company's financial performance for 2024 and future periods is subject to the risks identified below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP general, administrative, and marketing expenses, and free cash flows. Investors should consider this non-GAAP information in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. In addition, this non-GAAP financial information may not be the same as similar measures presented by other companies. The Company's non-GAAP revenues are adjusted for the impact of changes in currency exchange. The Company’s non-GAAP net income; non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA; non-GAAP general, administrative, and marketing, and free cash flows results exclude (as applicable) depreciation and amortization expense; interest income and expense; stock-based compensation expense; loss or gain on foreign currency revaluation; income tax expense or benefit; corporate rebranding expense; business development, integration, and severance income or expense; loss on extinguishment of debt; and non-cash interest expense. The Company generally uses non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's review of the operational performance of the company and as a basis for strategic planning. Company management believes that these non-GAAP presentations provide useful information to investors regarding unusual non-operating transactions; the operating expense structure of the Company's existing and recently acquired operations, without regard to its on-going efforts to acquire additional complementary products and businesses, and the transaction and integration expenses incurred in connection with recently acquired and divested product lines; and the operating expense structure excluding fluctuations resulting from foreign currency revaluation and stock-based compensation expense. The Company believes it is useful to exclude certain expenses because such amounts in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of its business operations or can vary significantly between periods as a result of factors such as impact of recent acquisitions, non-cash expense related to amortization of previously acquired tangible and intangible assets, and any related adjustments to their carrying values. The Company has adjusted for the impact of changes in currency exchange from certain revenues to evaluate comparable product growth rates on a constant currency basis. The Company does, however, expect to incur similar types of expenses and currency exchange impacts in the future, and this non-GAAP financial information should not be viewed as a statement or indication that these types of expenses will not recur. Company management encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety, including the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

Webcast and Conference Call Information

The company will hold a teleconference call and live webcast on May 6, 2024, at 4:30 p.m. ET to discuss the results, followed by a question and answer session. To participate in the conference call dial 201-689-8261 a few minutes prior to 4:30 p.m. ET. The teleconference replay will be available approximately one hour following the completion of the event and can be accessed by calling (toll free) 877-660-6853 or 201-612-7415.

Forward Looking-Statements

Statements made in this press release that look forward in time or that express management's beliefs, expectations, or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements reflect the views of management at the time such statements are made. These statements include, but are not limited to, those regarding our full year revenue expectations and our confidence in our ability to meet or exceed our adjusted EBITDA target for 2024; the timeline for regulatory approval for AMDS and other products; that our revenues for the full year 2024 will be in the range of $386 to $396 million, representing revenue growth of between 9% to 12% compared to 2023 on a constant currency basis; expect, at current exchange rates, negligible currency impact on the 2024 full year revenues; and expect non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to increase between 26% and 34% for the full year 2024 compared to 2023, resulting in non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in the range of $68 to $72 million in 2024. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations, including, but not limited to, the unpredictability of the timing and outcome of regulatory decisions, the benefits anticipated from the Ascyrus Medical LLC transaction and Endospan agreements and our operational improvements in our tissue and stent graft business may not be achieved at all or at the levels we anticipate or had originally anticipated; the benefits anticipated from our clinical trials and regulatory approvals may not be achieved or achieved on our anticipated timelines; and the benefits anticipated from our expansion into APAC and LATAM may not be achieved or achieved on our anticipated timelines. These risks and uncertainties include the risk factors detailed in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Artivion does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
