"2021 has proven to be a transformational year for Reshape, as we continue on our pathway to becoming the premier physician led weight loss company," said Bart Bandy, President, and Chief Executive Officer at ReShape Lifesciences. "Additionally, we are encouraged by the progress made over the course of the pandemic in driving our internal growth strategy through the expanded launch of Reshapecare, a reimbused telehealth service that supports practices and patients across the medical treatment continuum for weight loss. We have also strengthened our sustainability through the completed manufacturing transiton of the Lap-Band, which has driven increased revenues compared to the first quarters of 2020 and 2019. For the remainder of 2021, we plan to focus on patient direct marketing, adding more Lap-Band and Reshapecare accounts, and accelerating the development of internal technologies."

First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by $0.4 million, or 15.5%, to $3.2 million compared to $2.8 million in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $0.6 million in US sales, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in international sales resulting from several regions heavily effected by the COVID-19 pandemic. When comparing revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021, to the same period in 2019, which had no effect from the COVID-19 pandemic, revenue increased 4.6%.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2021 was $2.3 million compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $1.3 million compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

General and administrative expenses were $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Research and development expenses were $0.6 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Total operating expenses were $4.5 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss was $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to a loss of $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $1.9 million as of March 31, 2021. Notably, in January 2021 we successfully obtained a $15.0 million line of credit with an institutional investor which is accessible to the company at any time. As of the date of this filing, we have not made a draw on this credit facility. Additionally, we have received full forgiveness of our PPP loan which we received during 2020.

Non-GAAP Disclosures

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with GAAP, we provide certain historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that, in some respects, these non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of the Company's ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents.

Management believes that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with greater transparency and facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments, and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, and prospects for the future. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Form 10-K have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of the Company's core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, changes in fair value of liability warrants and other one-time costs. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of the Company's core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process.
