Biolase Reports Full-Year 2023 Results; Expects Continued Revenue Growth In 2024

LAKE FOREST, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 21, 2024 / BIOLASE, Inc. (NASDAQ:BIOL), the globally recognized leader in dental laser technology, who previously announced its preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023, today reported its financial results for the quarter and full year.

2023 Full-Year Highlights

  • Achieved revenue growth despite industry headwinds and a challenging interest rate environment throughout 2023.
  • Key performance metrics demonstrate continued growth and momentum, including:
    • Record consumable sales, including the introduction of recurring revenue subscriptions.
    • Increased adoption of its industry-leading laser systems.
    • Increased sales conversion rate of 45% due to the continued success of its Waterlase Trial Program.
  • Achieved cost savings goals and improved quality from in-house manufacturing of critical components.

"We were operating in a challenging spending environment given higher interest rates. However, our initiatives enabled us to grow full-year 2023 revenue modestly," commented John Beaver, President and Chief Executive Officer of BIOLASE. "Our continuing efforts to heighten the interest in our industry-leading dental lasers are driving greater awareness and interest in our award-winning lasers, which we believe will continue in 2024 and allow us to accelerate our revenue growth as we return to a more normalized business climate. The increased utilization of our installed base is a bullish sentiment, as evidenced by the 20% increase in our consumable sales during the year, so our goal is to accelerate growth while continuing to improve our operations. Greater adoption of our dental lasers, coupled with the expansion of our gross margins and lower operating expenses, will allow us to meet our revenue and profitability objectives for 2024."

2023 Financial Results

Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, was $49.2 million, an increase of 1% compared to net revenue of $48.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. U.S. laser revenue was $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of 10% compared to U.S. laser revenue of $20.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. U.S. consumables and other revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, which consists of revenue from consumable products such as disposable tips, increased 31% year over year. International laser revenue was $11.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 6% compared to $11.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. International consumable and other revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, decreased 3% year over year.

Gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2023, was 34% compared to 33% for the year ended December 31, 2022. Total operating expenses were $34.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $41.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, a 16% decrease year over year. Operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2023, was $17.9 million, compared to an operating loss of $25.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, a decrease of 29% year over year.

On December 31, 2023, the company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $6.6 million. Following its February 2024 equity raise of an additional $7.0 million in gross proceeds, the Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to execute its near-term growth strategies and reach positive adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2024.

Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA

The reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA at the end of this news release provides the details of the Company's non-GAAP disclosures and the reconciliation of GAAP net loss and net loss per share to the Company's Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per share.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2023, was $37.6 million, or $29.44 per share, compared to a net loss of $28.9 million, or $418.13 per share (as adjusted for the reverse stock split), for the year ended December 31, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2023, was a loss of $12.8 million, or $10.00 per share, compared with an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $20.1 million, or $291.86 per share (as adjusted for the reverse stock split), for the year ended December 31, 2022.

2024 First Quarter and Full Year Financial Guidance

  • BIOLASE anticipates first-quarter net revenue to exceed $10.0 million, representing relatively flat revenue compared to the year-ago quarter.
  • BIOLASE expects 2024 full-year net revenue to increase between 6% and 8% year over year to between $52 million and $53 million. This reflects the continued adoption of lasers and consumables by the dental community, including general dentists, dental specialists, dental hygienists, and group practice entities (DSOs), offset by the challenging business environment.
  • BIOLASE also expects to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA results for the full year of 2024 (adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, patent litigation settlements, stock-based and other non-cash compensation, and the change in allowance for doubtful accounts).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"), this press release includes 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.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, stock-based and other non-cash compensation, severance expense, change in allowance for doubtful accounts, increase in inventory reserves, and other (income) expense, net. 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. 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.

These expenses were partially offset by gains recorded on the revaluation of these warrants during the periods.
