“We are very pleased with our quarterly results; delivering revenue at the top end of our provided range as well as executing on expanding our commercial organization as promised last quarter,” said Bjarne Bergheim, Chief Executive Officer of Sonendo. “Additionally, we are excited about the progress of our CleanFlow limited market release. We are encouraged by the feedback and data we have received from over 5,000 procedures performed to date and are confident that this latest technology will further establish the GentleWave Procedure as the standard of care for root canal therapy as we continue to commercialize over the course of 2022. This innovation continues to be supported by our strong underlying business that recently achieved a milestone of 800,000 GentleWave procedures performed demonstrating continued adoption and growth.”

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Total revenue was $9.9 million in the fourth quarter 2021, an increase from $8.7 million in the fourth quarter 2020. Growth in the quarter was driven primarily by increased utilization among our current install base and increased GentleWave console sales. GentleWave console revenue was $3.1 million in the fourth quarter 2021, an increase from $2.8 million in the fourth quarter 2020. Procedure instrument revenue was $3.8 million, an increase from $3.3 million in the fourth quarter 2020. Software revenue was $2.2 million, an increase from $2.0 million in the fourth quarter 2020. As of December 31, 2021, GentleWave ending install base was approximately 820 units.

Gross margin for fourth quarter 2021 was 25%, compared to 20% in the fourth quarter 2020. The increase in gross margin was driven primarily by a reduction in charges relating to excess inventory and improved overhead absorption.

Total operating expenses in the fourth quarter 2021 were $16.0 million, compared to $13.2 million in the fourth quarter 2020. The increase was primarily driven by sales team hiring and higher general and administrative costs, primarily legal and accounting. This was partially offset by lower research and development expenses.

Loss from operations was $13.6 million in the fourth quarter 2021, compared to $11.4 million in the fourth quarter 2020. Non-GAAP loss from operations was $11.9 million in the fourth quarter 2021 compared to $10.3 million in the fourth quarter 2020. Non-GAAP loss from operations excludes revaluation of contingent consideration, stock-based compensation expense, and depreciation and amortization expense.

Net loss was $13.7 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to $12.5 million in the fourth quarter 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021 totaled $84.6 million, while long-term borrowings totaled $30.0 million. The company raised $84 million of net proceeds from its initial public offering, which closed on November 2, 2021.

Full Year 2021 Financial Results

Revenue was $33.2 million for 2021, an increase from $23.4 million for 2020. The growth was primarily driven by increased utilization among our current install base and increased GentleWave console sales. GentleWave console revenue was $8.4 million for 2021, an increase from $4.8 million for 2020. Procedure instrument revenue was $14.4 million, an increase from $10.4 million for 2020. Software revenue was $7.4 million, an increase from $6.0 million for 2020. Growth was primarily driven by an increase in the number of new accounts and increased services.

Gross margin for 2021 was 25% compared to 17% for 2020. The increase in gross margin was driven primarily by a reduction in charges relating to excess inventory and improved overhead absorption.

Total operating expenses for 2021 were $52.7 million, compared to $46.7 million for 2020. The increase was primarily driven by sales team hiring and higher general and administrative costs, primarily legal and accounting. This was partially offset by lower research and development expenses due to lower spending on supplies and services purchased for various projects.

Loss from operations was $44.4 million for 2021, compared to $42.8 million for 2020. Non-GAAP loss from operations was $39.8 million for 2021, compared to $39.0 million for 2020. Non-GAAP loss from operations excludes revaluation of contingent consideration, stock-based compensation expense, and depreciation and amortization expense.

Net loss was $48.5 million for 2021 compared to $46.7 million for 2020.

2022 Financial Guidance

The Company expects full year 2022 total revenue to be in the range of $40 million to $43 million.

About Sonendo

Sonendo is a commercial-stage medical technology company focused on saving teeth from tooth decay, the most prevalent chronic disease globally. Sonendo develops and manufactures the GentleWave® System, an innovative technology platform designed to treat tooth decay by cleaning and disinfecting the microscopic spaces within teeth without the need to remove tooth structure. The system utilizes a proprietary mechanism of action, which combines procedure fluid optimization, broad-spectrum acoustic energy and advanced fluid dynamics, to debride and disinfect deep regions of the complex root canal system in a less invasive procedure that preserves tooth structure. The clinical benefits of the GentleWave System when compared to conventional methods of root canal therapy include improved clinical outcomes, such as superior cleaning that is independent of root canal complexity and tooth anatomy, high and rapid rates of healing and minimal to no post-operative pain. In addition, the GentleWave System can improve the workflow and economics of dental practices. Sonendo is also the parent company of TDO® Software, the developer of widely used endodontic practice management software solutions, designed to simplify practice workflow. TDO Software integrates practice management, imaging, referral reporting and CBCT imaging, and offers built-in communication with the GentleWave System.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Sonendo’ financial results are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). This press release and the reconciliation tables included in the financial schedules below include non-GAAP loss from operations. Non-GAAP loss from operations exclude, as applicable, (i) revaluation of contingent consideration, (iii) stock-based compensation expense, and (iii) depreciation and amortization. Management believes that non-GAAP loss from operations are useful in helping identify the company’s core operating performance and enables management to consistently analyze the period-to-period financial performance of the core business operations. Management also believes that non-GAAP loss from operations, will enable investors to assess the company in the same way that management has historically assessed the company’s operating results against comparable companies with conventional accounting methodologies. The company’s definitions of non-GAAP loss from operations have limitations as analytical tools and may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from such non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to financial statement data presented in the financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.

For a reconciliation of our non-GAAP loss from operations presented herein to GAAP loss from operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Loss from Operations” in the financial schedules below.
