FRIENDSWOOD, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Castle Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: CSTL), a company improving health through innovative tests that guide patient care, today announced its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023.

“Castle delivered an outstanding second quarter, with strength across our entire test portfolio,” said Derek Maetzold, president and chief executive officer of Castle Biosciences. “Building on our first quarter momentum and driven by consistent execution across the entire Castle team, we delivered strong test report volume and revenue growth. Based on strong first half 2023 execution and confidence in our business, we are raising our 2023 revenue guidance to at least $180 million.

“In addition, we expanded our body of evidence, further demonstrating the clinical value of our innovative tests and supporting adoption by clinicians and payers. Specifically, two patient outcome studies on our DecisionDx®-Melanoma test were published in the second quarter. The first study was from our collaboration with the National Cancer Institute’s SEER Program Registries. Data from this study showed that testing with DecisionDx-Melanoma was associated with lower melanoma-specific and overall mortality relative to untested patients. A similar study was published by Dhillon, et al. This independent, multi-center study found that sentinel lymph node negative patients whose follow-up treatment pathway was directed by the DecisionDx-Melanoma test for use of routine imaging in patients with high-risk DecisionDx-Melanoma results led to earlier detection of recurrences, when the tumor burden was lower. At study end, 76% of patients in the tested group who had a melanoma recurrence were alive compared to 50% in the untested group.

“Additionally, during open comment periods, we had the opportunity to present data to a number of Medicare contractors related to one of the treatments that our DecisionDx®-SCC test has been shown to inform, adjuvant radiation therapy (ART). These data from a matched control analysis compare patients with high-risk squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with one or more risk factors who received ART and those who did not. When evaluating this cohort, we observed that the DecisionDx-SCC Class 2B result could identify a group of patients with a significant reduction in metastasis rate after having received ART and that the DecisionDx-SCC Class 1 patients did not receive a benefit from ART.

“Our continued success is a testament to the ongoing dedication of our team to our patient-centric mission. With a track record of delivering on our short- and long-term strategies, combined with a healthy balance sheet and multi-year plan to deliver revenue growth and positive net operating cash flow by year-ending 2025, we are managing the business with a goal of driving near- and long-term shareholder value.”

Second Quarter and Recent Accomplishments and Highlights

Dermatology

  • DecisionDx-Melanoma: In June, the Company announced the initial publication of its collaboration with the National Cancer Institute’s SEER Program Registries. This large study of real-world, unselected patients confirmed prior prospective and retrospective studies showing DecisionDx-Melanoma provided clinically meaningful and significant, independent risk stratification of patients with cutaneous melanoma (CM), beyond American Joint Committee on Cancer Eighth Edition (AJCC8) stage. Additionally, the study showed that testing with DecisionDx-Melanoma was associated with lower melanoma-specific and overall mortality relative to untested patients. The publication can be found here.
  • DecisionDx-Melanoma: In May, the Company announced an independent, multi-center study providing a direct chain of evidence that use of DecisionDx-Melanoma test results to guide radiological surveillance could lead to improved patient outcomes. Specifically, this study directly compared the impact of management changes in sentinel lymph node negative patients whose follow-up pathway was directed by the DecisionDx-Melanoma test to patients in the same institution who were not tested and, therefore, did not have their follow-up pathway changed from the institution’s traditional follow-up pathway. The results showed that metastasis was detected earlier, when the tumor burden was smaller, and at study end, 76% of patients in the tested group who had a metastasis were alive compared to 50% in the untested group. The study, authored by Dhillon et al., can be found here.
  • DecisionDx-SCC: In June, the Company announced new data demonstrating the ability of the DecisionDx-SCC test to identify cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) tumors at a biologically high risk of metastasis in a subset of patients considered to be at a low risk of metastasis by traditional staging. In the study, the DecisionDx-SCC test was able to significantly stratify three-year metastasis free survival rates within the AJCC8 and Brigham and Women’s Hospital T1 populations of the cSCC cohort. See the Company’s news release from June 12, 2023, for more information.
  • DecisionDx-SCC: In June, the Company announced the publication of a paper highlighting a clinician-derived, real-world algorithm that provides a framework to incorporate DecisionDx-SCC test results into clinical practice within National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guideline recommendations. This framework for stratifying patients with advanced cSCC includes a treatment algorithm that demonstrates how use of DecisionDx-SCC test results can assist clinicians in identifying personalized, risk-aligned treatment pathway improvements for patients with high-risk cSCC, based on the patient’s tumor biology, which may help improve their disease outcome. The publication can be found here.

Gastroenterology

  • In May, the Company announced that its three posters at the recent Digestive Disease Week Annual Meeting were honored as “Posters of Distinction” by the American Gastroenterological Association Institute Council, ranking among the top 10% of the more than 3,100 abstracts showcased during the meeting. See the Company’s news release from May 26, 2023, for more information.
  • In May, the Company announced that it had been selected as the winner of the “Best Use of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare” award in the seventh annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program for its innovative TissueCypher Barrett’s Esophagus (BE) test. The TissueCypher test provides clinicians with important information about a patient’s individual risk of progression to esophageal cancer based on advanced analysis of biopsied tissue to guide more informed and risk-aligned management of BE patients. See the Company’s news release from May 15, 2023, for more information.

Mental Health

  • In June, ECRI, an independent, nonprofit organization improving the safety, quality and cost-effectiveness of care across all healthcare settings, concluded its genetic test assessment of Castle’s IDgenetix test with a four out of five, or “Somewhat Favorable,” rating. Commercial payers utilize ECRI evaluations to assist in making coverage decisions.
  • In May, the Company announced real-world study data demonstrating that use of IDgenetix to guide medication management can significantly improve medication response and remission rates in patients diagnosed with moderate to severe depression, compared to current standard-of-care treatment. The study abstract can be found here.

Corporate

  • In July, the Company announced that it had earned a second consecutive Arizona Top Workplace award from AZ Central, the digital home of The Arizona Republic newspaper. See the Company’s news release from July 17, 2023, for more information.
  • In May, the Company announced that it opened a new state-of-the-art laboratory facility in Pittsburgh. The new 20,000-square-foot facility doubles the size of its previous Pittsburgh laboratory and is expected to have the capacity and ability to process each of its proprietary tests. Additionally, the Company anticipates doubling its workforce in Pittsburgh, creating approximately 35 new jobs by the end of 2023. See the Company’s news release from May 22, 2023, for more information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (UNAUDITED)

In this release, we use the metrics of Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures and are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted Gross Margin reflect adjustments to GAAP net revenues to exclude net positive and/or net negative revenue adjustments recorded in the current period associated with changes in estimated variable consideration related to test reports delivered in previous periods. Adjusted Gross Margin further excludes acquisition-related intangible asset amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from net loss interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration and acquisition related transaction costs.

We use Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA internally because we believe these metrics provide useful supplemental information in assessing our revenue and operating performance reported in accordance with GAAP, respectively. We believe that Adjusted Revenues, when used in conjunction with our test report volume information, facilitates investors’ analysis of our current-period revenue performance and average selling price performance by excluding the effects of revenue adjustments related to test reports delivered in prior periods, since these adjustments may not be indicative of the current or future performance of our business. We believe that providing Adjusted Revenues may also help facilitate comparisons to our historical periods. Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated using Adjusted Revenues and therefore excludes the impact of revenue adjustments related to test reports delivered in prior periods, which we believe is useful to investors as described above. We further exclude acquisition-related intangible asset amortization in the calculation of Adjusted Gross Margin. We believe that excluding acquisition-related intangible asset amortization may facilitate gross margin comparisons to historical periods and may be useful in assessing current-period performance without regard to the historical accounting valuations of intangible assets, which are applicable only to tests we acquired rather than internally developed. We believe Adjusted EBITDA may enhance an evaluation of our operating performance because it excludes the impact of prior decisions made about capital investment, financing, investing and certain expenses we believe are not indicative of our ongoing performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when the same or similarly titled terms are used to identify such measures, limiting their usefulness for comparative purposes.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or used as substitutes for net revenues, gross margin, or net loss reported in accordance with GAAP; should be considered in conjunction with our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP; have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; are unaudited; and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, from time to time in the future, there may be other items that we may exclude for purposes of these non-GAAP financial measures, and we may in the future cease to exclude items that we have historically excluded for purposes of these non-GAAP financial measures. Likewise, we may determine to modify the nature of adjustments to arrive at these non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions of non-GAAP financial measures, the non-GAAP financial measure as used by us in this press release and the accompanying reconciliation tables have limits in their usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables at the end of this release.
