This is the first update of the ESC guidelines in five years and reflects the growing body of robust clinical evidence supporting the use of Impella for cardiogenic shock patients.
  • On November 4, physician experts and principal investigators of the PROTECT IV RCT, the RECOVER IV RCT and the STEMI Door-to-Unloading RCT presented robust, high-quality data and clinical studies of Impella heart pumps at Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) 2021, the annual scientific symposium of the Cardiovascular Research Foundation.

  • On January 12, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Michael R. Minogue, presented at the 40th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference. The presentation provides a brief overview of the company and a deep dive on Abiomed’s breakthrough innovation, robust clinical evidence, and premier clinical field team.
  • On January 12, the company announced the successful results of the first-in-human EFS of the preCARDIA system. The preCARDIA system is designed to improve decongestion in acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) patients by intermittently occluding the superior vena cava. The study met the safety and feasibility endpoints, and the results of the study were published in the journal Circulation: Heart Failure.

“Despite a slower start in October due to the COVID resurgence and hospital labor shortages, our Abiomed 2.0 playbook allowed us to adapt and execute, grow sequentially, and support the most patients ever in a quarter. These record results would not have been possible without the dedication of our customers and employees supporting critically ill patients 24 x 7 on-site, online and in the cloud with Impella Connect,” said Michael R. Minogue, Abiomed’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our focus on extending our lead in innovation, advancing clinical evidence, and building a premier commercial team enables the pursuit of becoming the global standard of care for hemodynamic support.”

FISCAL YEAR 2022 OUTLOOK

The company is increasing the lower end of its fiscal year 2022 revenue guidance to a range of $1,025 million to $1,030 million with growth of 21% - 22% versus prior year. This compares to the previous quarter guidance of $1,010 million to $1,030 million, an increase of 19% - 22%. The company expects its fiscal year 2022 non-GAAP operating margin* to be in the range of 24% - 25%.

*ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement its condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the company uses non-GAAP financial measures as described below. The company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity. The company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. The company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) they are used by institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the performance of the company’s business.

The company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures:

Non-GAAP operating income: The company defines non-GAAP operating income as operating income, excluding charges for the acquired in-process research and development related to the preCARDIA acquisition.

Non-GAAP operating margin: The company defines non-GAAP operating margin as operating margin, excluding charges for the acquired in-process research and development related to the preCARDIA acquisition.

Non-GAAP net income and net income per diluted share: The company defines non-GAAP net income and net income per diluted share as net income and net income per diluted share, excluding charges for the acquired in-process research and development related to the preCARDIA acquisition, the gain recognized on its previously owned minority interest in preCARDIA, unrealized losses/ gains on investment in Shockwave Medical and excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The company defines non-GAAP EPS as non-GAAP net income divided by non-GAAP diluted shares, which are calculated as GAAP weighted average outstanding shares plus dilutive potential shares outstanding during the period.

Constant currency: The company defines constant currency revenue growth as the change in revenue between current and prior year periods using a constant currency, the exchange rate in effect during the applicable prior year period. The company presents constant currency revenue growth because management believes it provides meaningful information regarding the company’s revenue results on a consistent and comparable basis.

Refer to the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release.

The company reports non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, differ from GAAP measures with the same names, and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar names that are used by other companies. The company believes it is useful to exclude certain items because such amounts in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of its business operations or can vary significantly between periods. The company believes that non-GAAP financial measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP financial measures. The company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliations between these presentations, to more fully understand its business.

Notes:
(1) In May 2021, the company acquired the remaining interest in preCARDIA for $82.8 million. The company determined that substantially all of the fair value of the acquisition related to the acquired in-process research and development asset, which resulted in accounting for the transaction as an asset acquisition. The fair value of the acquired in-process research and development asset of $115.5 million is primarily comprised of the net consideration paid for the acquired remaining interest of $82.8 million and our previously owned minority interest in preCARDIA of $32.4 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, the Company made a holdback payment of $0.5 million to former shareholders of preCARDIA. Since the acquired technology platform is pre-commercial and has not reached technical feasibility as defined by the accounting rules, the cost of the in-process research and development asset was expensed, resulting in a charge of $116 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2021.
(2) The company recognized a gain of $21 million related to its previously owned minority interest in preCARDIA as described in note (1) above, within the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2021.
(3) Amount represents the unrealized loss (gain) on investment in Shockwave Medical in each respective period presented. The company recognized an unrealized loss on investment in Shockwave Medical of $8.2 million ($6.2 million, net of tax benefit) and an unrealized gain of $8.3 million ($6.2 million, net of tax benefit) within other (loss) income, net for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The company recognized an unrealized gain on investment in Shockwave Medical of $14.3 million ($10.7 million, net of tax benefit) and $43 million ($32.3 million, net of tax benefit) within other (loss) income, net for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
(4) Amount represents the impact of excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation in each respective period presented. The company recognized excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation of $0.3 million and $1.9 million as an income tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The company recognized excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation of $10.1 million and $10.4 million as an income tax benefit for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
