First-Quarter 2021 Results and Highlights:

  • Consolidated revenue increased 9% to $116 million
  • Clinical Services revenue increased 4% to $96 million
  • Pharma Services revenue increased 46% to $19 million
  • Completed the acquisition of Trapelo Health in April

FORT MYERS, FL / ACCESSWIRE / May 5, 2021 / NeoGenomics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEO) (the "Company"), a leading provider of cancer-focused genetics testing services, today announced its first-quarter results for the period ended March 31, 2021.

Mark W. Mallon, the Company's CEO said "I couldn't be more excited to be joining NeoGenomics at such a pivotal time in the Company's history. Trends in the business are strong and we are positioned well to take market share as we emerge from the pandemic. Today's announced acquisition of Inivata along with the completion of the acquisition of Trapelo Health in April are significant milestones on our journey to become the world's leading cancer testing and information company and we expect both to accelerate NeoGenomics' long term growth rate."

First-Quarter Results

Consolidated revenue for the first quarter of 2021 was $116 million, an increase of 9% over the same period in 2020. Clinical Services revenue increased year-over-year by 4% to $96 million. Clinical test volume(1) increased by 4% year-over-year. Average revenue per clinical test ("revenue per test") decreased by less than 2% to $364. Pharma Services revenue increased by 46% to $19 million compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to an increase in revenue related to clinical trials and informatics.

Consolidated gross profit was $41.6 million, a decrease of 10.3%, compared to the first quarter of 2020. This decrease was a result of the combined effect of lower test volume due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, adverse weather in February 2021, payroll and payroll-related costs, as well as a $5.3 million inventory write-off due to the exit from COVID-19 PCR testing recorded to cost of revenue in the first quarter of 2021. Due to a significant decline in demand for COVID-19 PCR overflow testing during the quarter, the Company made the decision to wind down its COVID-19 PCR testing capabilities. Consolidated gross profit margin was 36.0% when including COVID-19 PCR testing exit costs and 40.6% excluding these charges.

Operating expenses increased by $5 million, or 10%, compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily related to higher payroll and payroll-related costs due to increases in personnel to support our near and long-term growth, acquisition costs, and a write-off of COVID-19 PCR testing laboratory equipment due to the exit from COVID-19 PCR testing.

Net loss for the quarter was $22 million compared to net loss of $7 million for the first quarter of 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $4 million compared to $7 million in the first quarter of 2020. Adjusted Net Loss(2) was $5 million compared to a loss of $2 million in the first quarter of 2020.

During the quarter, the Company completed a concurrent common stock and convertible note offering, which added net proceeds of $523 million to the Company's liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, was $623 million and short-term marketable securities were $191 million. Days sales outstanding ("DSO") was 80 days at the end of the first quarter of 2021.

Subsequent Events

On April 7, 2021, the Company closed on the acquisition of Intervention Insights, Inc. d/b/a Trapelo Health, an Information Technology company focused on precision oncology. The purchase price was $65 million, consisting of $35 million in cash and $30 million in the Company's common stock.

On May 4, 2021, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement to acquire Inivata. Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company will pay Inivata's other shareholders consideration in an aggregate amount of $390 million, adjusted to reflect certain cash and debt items at closing.

On May 4, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain purchasers (the "Purchasers"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers, in a private placement (the "Private Placement"), shares of common stock of the Company. The closing of the Private Placement is anticipated to occur in June 2021, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and the closing of the Company's acquisition of Inivata. The Company agreed to sell and issue 4.4 million shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $45.00 per share for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $200 million, before deducting fees to the placement agents and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company's financial results and financial guidance are provided in accordance with GAAP and include the use of certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that the presentation of operating results using non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company's core operating results and comparison of core operating results across reporting periods. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making, planning and forecasting purposes and to manage the Company's business. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to evaluate the Company's operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management. The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations inherent in non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation, and do not present the full measure of the Company's recorded costs against its net revenue. In addition, the Company's definition of the non-GAAP financial measures below may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA

"Adjusted EBITDA" is defined by NeoGenomics as net loss from continuing operations before: (i) interest expense, (ii) tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iv) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and, if applicable in a reporting period, (v) acquisition and integration related expenses, (vi) CEO transition costs, (vii) write-off of COVID-19 PCR testing inventory and equipment, (viii) and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses, net.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (Loss)

"Adjusted Net Income (Loss)" is defined by NeoGenomics as net income (loss) from continuing operations plus: (i) non-cash amortization of customer lists and other intangible assets, (ii) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and, if applicable in a reporting period, (iii) acquisition and integration related expenses, (iv) write-off of COVID-19 PCR testing inventory and equipment, (v) CEO transition costs, (vi) and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses. If GAAP net income (loss) is negative and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is positive, adjusted diluted net income (loss) will also be adjusted to reverse any recognized interest expense (including any amortization of discounts) on the convertible notes using the if-converted method unless the effect of this adjustment on both the Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and weighted average diluted common shares outstanding would be anti-dilutive.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted EPS

"Adjusted Diluted EPS" is defined by NeoGenomics as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by adjusted diluted shares outstanding. If GAAP net income (loss) is negative and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is positive, adjusted diluted shares outstanding will also include any options or restricted stock that would be outstanding as dilutive instruments using the treasury stock method and the weighted average number of common shares that would be outstanding if the convertible notes were converted into common stock on the original issue date based on the number of days such common shares would have been outstanding in the reporting period, until the effect of these adjustments are anti-dilutive.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Guidance to Corresponding GAAP Measures
(In thousands, except per share amounts)

GAAP net loss in 2021 will be impacted by certain charges, including: (i) expense related to the amortization of customer lists and other intangibles, (ii) non-cash stock based compensation, (iii) acquisition and integration related expenses, and (iv) other one-time expenses. These charges have been included in GAAP net loss available to common shareholders and GAAP net loss per share; however, they have been removed from Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Diluted Net Loss per Share.
