SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Feb. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fluidigm Corporation (Nasdaq:FLDM), an innovative biotechnology tools provider with a vision to improve life through comprehensive health insight, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2020.

Financial Highlights

Fourth Quarter 2020

  • Fourth quarter revenue increased 38 percent to $44.6 million from $32.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. Product and service revenue increased 26 percent to $40.5 million. Total revenue included $4.1 million of other revenue.
  • GAAP net loss for the quarter was $18.0 million, compared with a GAAP net loss of $12.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2019.
  • Non-GAAP net loss was $9.8 million for the quarter, compared with a $2.3 million non-GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019.

Full Year 2020

  • Revenue increased 18 percent to $138.1 million from $117.2 million in full year 2019. Total revenue included $15.6 million of other revenue.

“Revenue in the fourth quarter was the highest in the company’s history, driven by exceptional performance in microfluidics as well as sequential improvement in mass cytometry,” said Chris Linthwaite, President and CEO. “Demand for our saliva-based COVID-19 tests was notable, and we saw broad-based improvement in our core business lines compared to earlier periods in the pandemic. For the full year, we delivered record-breaking revenue while navigating an incredibly volatile operating environment that impacted all facets of our business. We made excellent progress in our molecular diagnostics and immune research strategies, expanding our customer base and driving growth in our recurring revenue sources. In addition, we strengthened our balance sheet and secured new partnerships to build new capabilities, access new markets and develop new products.”

Linthwaite added, “Although COVID-19 caused significant disruption to our business, our agility and responsiveness paved the way for accelerating growth and increased opportunities in 2021 and beyond. We anticipate further progress in transforming our microfluidics franchise into a durable diagnostics platform with new product releases and partnerships. Additionally, our mass cytometry franchise is moving closer to healthcare decision making with a strong increase in publications, clinical studies, and an exciting new collaboration to enter regulated markets in China. We anticipate that new product innovation, new collaborations and partnerships, and a growing body of research and clinical trial insights will drive growth as we pioneer new fields of scientific exploration in human biology.”

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Fluidigm has presented certain financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP and also on a non-GAAP basis for the three-and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, taken in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provide useful information for both management and investors by excluding certain non-cash and other expenses that are not indicative of the company’s core operating results. Management uses non-GAAP measures to compare the company’s performance relative to forecasts and strategic plans and to benchmark the company’s performance externally against competitors. Our estimates of forward-looking non-GAAP operating loss exclude estimates for stock-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization; loss on disposal of property and equipment; future changes relating to developed and acquired technologies; other intangible assets; and income taxes, among other items, certain of which are presented in the tables accompanying our earnings release. A reconciliation of adjusted guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding certain expenses that may be incurred in the future. The time and amount of certain material items needed to estimate non-GAAP financial measures are inherently unpredictable or outside of our control. Material changes to any of these items could have a significant effect on guidance and future GAAP results. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of the company’s operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Fluidigm 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. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP operating results are presented in the accompanying tables of this release.
