Financial Highlights

    • Foreign currency headwinds reduced quarterly net revenue and net revenue growth by approximately $0.8 million and 2.1 percentage points, respectively, as compared to the prior year quarter.
    • U.S. quarterly revenue was a record $40.0 million, representing growth of 25% over the prior year quarter. Growth was driven primarily by sales force productivity gains resulting from new product launches, an expanded customer base, and continued medical education momentum.
    • International quarterly net revenue was a record $6.0 million, representing reported growth of 52% over the prior year quarter. Foreign currency headwinds reduced quarterly international net revenue and net revenue growth by approximately $0.8 million and 19 percentage points, respectively, as compared to the prior year quarter. Growth was driven primarily by Australia, South Africa, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
  • Gross margin 81.5% for the quarter compared to 80.2% for the third quarter of 2021, reflecting lower excess and obsolete inventory expense.
  • Operating expenses $46.0 million for the third quarter of 2022, representing a 3.3 percentage point improvement in operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue as compared to the second quarter of 2022.

  • Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was negative $2.7 million compared to negative $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2021 and negative $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2022.

“I am very proud of our year-to-date results through September, as we achieved reported net revenue growth of 24% despite a challenging business environment. Our year-to-date and record third quarter net revenue results reflect the success of our targeted investments and demonstrate our team’s ability to consistently execute,” said Albert DaCosta, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Increased 2022 Net Revenue Guidance

The Company increased its 2022 net revenue guidance by $3.5 million to $179.5 million. Net revenue growth for 2022 is now expected to be 22%, compared to the Company’s previous guidance of 19%. The increased net revenue guidance includes the impact of stronger foreign currency headwinds in both the third and fourth quarters of 2022, which are now expected to reduce 2022 net revenue and net revenue growth by approximately $2.4 million and 1.6 percentage points, respectively. Previously issued 2022 net revenue guidance included estimated foreign currency headwinds reducing net revenue by $1.5 million and 1.0 percentage points, respectively.

The Company’s increased 2022 annual net revenue guidance includes fourth quarter 2022 net revenue guidance of $49.6 million, representing reported net revenue growth of 16% compared to the prior year quarter. Fourth quarter net revenue guidance includes the impact of stronger foreign currency headwinds, which are now expected to reduce fourth quarter 2022 net revenue and net revenue growth by approximately $0.9 million and 2.1 percentage points, respectively. Previously issued fourth quarter 2022 revenue guidance included estimated foreign currency headwinds reducing net revenue and net revenue growth by $0.4 million and 1.0 percentage points, respectively.

Revenue guidance assumes foreign currency translation rates remain consistent with current foreign currency translation rates.

Forward Looking Statements

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters set forth in this press release are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to: Paragon 28’s potential to shape a better future for foot and ankle patients and its estimated net revenue for the full year and fourth quarter of 2022. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are only predictions based on our current expectations, estimates, and assumptions, valid only as of the date they are made, and subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which we are not currently aware. Forward‐looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. These forward‐looking statements are based on Paragon 28’s current expectations and inherently involve significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward‐looking statements as a result of these risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties are described more fully in the section titled “Risk Factors” in Paragon 28’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including Paragon 28’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 8, 2022. Paragon 28 does not undertake any obligation to update forward‐looking statements and expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward‐looking statements contained herein. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Paragon 28’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Paragon 28’s results for the quarter and nine month period ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of our operating results for any future periods.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Their Limitations

In addition to our results and measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP presented in this press release, we believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating and comparing our financial and operational performance over multiple periods, identifying trends affecting our business, formulating business plans and making strategic decisions.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our financial performance and is also used for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, together with a reconciliation to net income, helps identify underlying trends in our business and helps investors make comparisons between our company and other companies that may have different capital structures, tax rates, or different forms of employee compensation. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to a key financial metric used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these potential limitations include:

  • other companies, including companies in our industry which have similar business arrangements, may report Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures;
  • although depreciation and amortization expenses are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditures for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
  • Adjusted EBITDA also does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs or the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; and
  • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur.

Because of these and other limitations, you should consider our non-GAAP measures only as supplemental to other GAAP-based financial measures.
