Insights

Financial Analyst

SOPHiA GENETICS' Q2 2024 results present a mixed picture. While revenue growth of 5% year-over-year to $15.8 million shows some progress, it's below industry averages for high-growth biotech companies. The adjusted gross margin improvement to 73.2% is a positive sign, indicating better operational efficiency.

However, the lowered full-year revenue guidance of $65-67 million is concerning, suggesting challenges in scaling. The maintained adjusted operating loss guidance of $45-50 million demonstrates strong cost management, but also highlights the company's struggle to achieve profitability.

Investors should closely monitor the company's ability to accelerate growth, particularly in BioPharma and EMEA regions, while maintaining its cost discipline. The balance between growth and profitability will be important for SOPHiA GENETICS' long-term success in the competitive data-driven medicine market.

Medical Research Analyst

SOPHiA GENETICS' performance in Q2 2024 reflects the evolving landscape of data-driven medicine. The company's cloud-native software approach positions it well in the growing field of precision medicine, but challenges in BioPharma and EMEA markets indicate potential hurdles in adoption or competition.

The strength in U.S. growth is encouraging, suggesting increasing acceptance of SOPHiA's platform in a key market. However, the overall modest growth rate raises questions about the scalability of their technology across different healthcare systems and regions.

For the medical research community, SOPHiA's progress is important as it could accelerate the integration of genomic data into clinical decision-making. The company's ability to improve gross margins while investing in R&D will be important for advancing their platform's capabilities and maintaining a competitive edge in this rapidly evolving field.

Market Research Analyst

SOPHiA GENETICS' Q2 results highlight the complex dynamics of the data-driven medicine market. The company's modest growth and regional disparities reflect the varying adoption rates of AI-driven healthcare solutions across different markets.

The strong performance in the U.S. suggests a growing acceptance of SOPHiA's platform in a mature healthcare market. However, challenges in BioPharma and EMEA indicate potential regulatory hurdles, competition, or market-specific barriers that need to be addressed.

The revised revenue guidance implies a cautious outlook for the remainder of 2024. This could be due to longer sales cycles, budget constraints in healthcare systems, or increased competition. SOPHiA's ability to navigate these challenges while maintaining its technological edge will be important for its market position. Investors should watch for strategic initiatives to overcome regional challenges and accelerate adoption in key markets.

"We delivered another quarter of strong forward-looking indicators and continued bottom-line improvements in Q2, despite facing macro-related headwinds in BioPharma and EMEA which offset outsized performance in the U.S.," said Jurgi Camblong, PhD., Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder. "We believe the headwinds we are facing are temporary in nature and remain encouraged by positive new business momentum, such as bookings and new customers signed, which will materialize as revenue later this year and into 2025. Despite the headwinds, I'm proud that we delivered a 32% year-over-year improvement to adjusted operating loss during the quarter and that disciplined spending has kept our path to profitability on track."

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

Other than with respect to revenue, the Company only provides guidance on a non-IFRS basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted gross margin (non-IFRS measure) to gross margin (the most comparable IFRS financial measure), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying amortization of capitalized research & development expenses that are necessary for such reconciliation. In addition, the Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted operating loss (non-IFRS measure) to operating loss (the most comparable IFRS financial measure), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying amortization of capitalized research & development expenses and intangible assets, share-based compensation expenses, and non-cash portion of pensions paid in excess of actual contributions, that are necessary for such reconciliation.

To provide investors with additional information regarding the company's financial results, SOPHiA GENETICS has disclosed here and elsewhere in this earnings release the following non-IFRS measures:

• Adjusted gross profit, which the company calculates as revenue minus cost of revenue adjusted to exclude amortization of capitalized research and development expenses;
• Adjusted gross profit margin, which the company calculates as adjusted gross profit as a percentage of revenue;
• Adjusted operating loss, which the company calculates as operating loss adjusted to exclude amortization of capitalized research and development expenses, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, and non-cash portion of pensions expense paid in excess of actual contributions to match the actuarial expense.

These non-IFRS measures are key measures used by SOPHiA GENETICS management and board of directors to evaluate its operating performance and generate future operating plans. The exclusion of certain expenses facilitates operating performance comparability across reporting periods by removing the effect of non-cash expenses and certain variable charges. Accordingly, the company believes that these non-IFRS measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors.

These non-IFRS measures have limitations as financial measures, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of SOPHiA GENETICS' results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are:

• These non-IFRS measures exclude the impact of amortization of capitalized research and development expenses and intangible assets. Although amortization is a non-cash charge, the assets being amortized may need to be replaced in the future and these non-IFRS measures do not reflect capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditures;
• These non-IFRS measures exclude the impact of share-based compensation expenses. Share-based compensation has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a recurring expense in the company's business and an important part of its compensation strategy;
• These non-IFRS measures exclude the impact of the non-cash portion of pensions paid in excess of actual contributions to match actuarial expenses. Pension expenses have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a recurring expense in the business; and
• Other companies, including companies in the company's industry, may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, you should consider these non-IFRS measures alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net income and other IFRS results.

The tables below provide the reconciliation of the most comparable IFRS measures to the non-IFRS measures for the periods presented.

Presentation of Constant Currency Revenue and Excluding COVID-19-Related Revenue

SOPHiA GENETICS operates internationally, and its revenues are generated primarily in the U.S. dollar, the euro and Swiss franc and, to a lesser extent, British pound, Australian dollar, Brazilian real, Turkish lira and Canadian dollar depending on the company's customers' geographic locations. Changes in revenue include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We present the non-IFRS financial measure "constant currency revenue" (or similar terms such as constant currency revenue growth) to show changes in revenue without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Under IFRS, revenues received in local (non-U.S. dollar) currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the average monthly exchange rate for the month in which the transaction occurred. When the company uses the term "constant currency", it means that it has translated local currency revenues for the current reporting period into U.S. dollars using the same average foreign currency exchange rates for the conversion of revenues into U.S. dollars that we used to translate local currency revenues for the comparable reporting period of the prior year. The company then calculates the difference between the IFRS revenue and the constant currency revenue to yield the "constant currency impact" for the current period.

The company's management and board of directors use constant currency revenue growth to evaluate growth and generate future operating plans. The exclusion of the impact of exchange rate fluctuations provides comparability across reporting periods and reflects the effects of customer acquisition efforts and land-and-expand strategy. Accordingly, it believes that this non-IFRS measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating revenue growth in the same manner as the management and board of directors. However, this non-IFRS measure has limitations, particularly as the exchange rate effects that are eliminated could constitute a significant element of its revenue and could significantly impact performance and prospects. Because of these limitations, you should consider this non-IFRS measure alongside other financial performance measures, including revenue and revenue growth presented in accordance with IFRS and other IFRS results.

In addition to constant currency revenue, the company presents constant currency revenue excluding COVID-19-related revenue to further remove the effects of revenues that are derived from sales of COVID-19-related offerings, including a NGS assay for COVID-19 that leverages the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform and related products and solutions analytical capabilities and COVID-19 bundled access products. SOPHiA GENETICS do not believe that these revenues reflect its core business of commercializing its platform because the company's COVID-19 solution was offered to address specific market demand by its customers for analytical capabilities to assist with their testing operations. The company does not anticipate additional development of its COVID-19-related solution as the pandemic transitions into a more endemic phase and as customer demand continues to decline. Further, COVID-19-related revenues did not constitute, and the company does not expect COVID-19-related revenues to constitute in the future, a significant part of its revenue. Accordingly, the company believes that this non-IFRS measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its revenue growth. However, this non-IFRS measure has limitations, including that COVID-19-related revenues contributed to the company's cash position, and other companies may define COVID-19-related revenues differently. Because of these limitations, you should consider this non-IFRS measure alongside other financial performance measures, including revenue and revenue growth presented in accordance with IFRS and other IFRS results.

The table below provides the reconciliation of the most comparable IFRS growth measures to the non-IFRS growth measures for the current period.

Notes to the Reconciliation of IFRS to Adjusted Financial Measures Tables
(1)	Amortization of capitalized research and development expenses consists of software development costs amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated life of five years. These expenses do not have a cash impact but remain a recurring expense generated over the course of our research and development initiatives.
(2)	Amortization of intangible assets consists of costs related to intangible assets amortized over the course of their useful lives. These expenses do not have a cash impact, but we could continue to generate such expenses through future capital investments.
(3)	Share-based compensation expense represents the cost of equity awards issued to our directors, officers, and employees. The fair value of awards is computed at the time the award is granted and is recognized over the vesting period of the award by a charge to the income statement and a corresponding increase in other reserves within equity. These expenses do not have a cash impact but remain a recurring expense for our business and represent an important part of our overall compensation strategy.
(4)	Non-cash pension expense consists of the amount recognized in excess of actual contributions made to our defined pension plans to match actuarial expenses calculated for IFRS purposes. The difference represents a non-cash expense but remains a recurring expense for our business as we continue to make contributions to our plans for the foreseeable future.
(5)	Costs associated with restructuring consists of compensation paid to employees during their garden leave period, severance, and any other amounts legally owed to the employees resulting from their termination as part of a planned workforce reduction, which we undertook to optimize our operations. Additionally, it includes any legal fees incurred as part of the restructuring process. While such actions are not planned going forward as part of our regular operations, we expect such expenses could still be incurred from time to time based on corporate needs.
