Singular Genomics Reports Recent Highlights and Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results

SAN DIEGO, March 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Singular Genomics Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: OMIC), a company leveraging novel next-generation sequencing (NGS) and multiomics technologies to empower researchers and clinicians, today highlighted recent corporate achievements and reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.

“2022 was a pivotal year for Singular Genomics. It was a year in which we achieved important milestones, overcame challenges, and ultimately ended on a strong note with five G4 systems in market. Most importantly, the business is set up for success with the right team, the right product, and the right opportunity. I am tremendously proud of the entire Singular team," said Drew Spaventa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Singular Genomics. “In 2023, we will remain focused on customer success across a growing installed base, commercial and operational execution, and advancing our innovation pipeline.”

Fourth Quarter and Recent Highlights

  • Generated the company’s first quarter of revenue of $765 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2022
  • Shipped four G4 systems to new customers in the fourth quarter of 2022, bringing our total commercial systems shipped to five as of the end of 2022
  • Launched Max Read kits for single cell sequencing, with an expected ship date in the second quarter, which boosts the potential output of the G4 to 800 million reads per flow cell, or a market-leading 3.2 billion reads per run on a benchtop system
  • Joined the 10x Genomics Compatible Partner Program, demonstrating compatibility of the G4 sequencing platform with 10x Genomics’ single cell applications
  • Increased the quality specifications for the G4 to 80%–90% Q30
  • Raised the throughput range of the F2 and F3 flow cells to up to 250 million and up to 450 million reads, respectively
  • Produced 14 new data sets, 11 with industry-leading genomics partners, showcasing high accuracy of the G4 across many diverse applications

Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $765 thousand, marking the first revenue generating quarter. Revenue was comprised predominantly of the revenue recognized on three instrument placements during the quarter. Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2022 totaled $22.5 million, compared to $19.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Operating expenses included non-cash stock-based compensation of $3.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 and $2.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The year-over-year increase in operating expenses was driven primarily by scaling headcount and infrastructure to support our growth, including the G4 launch, product pipeline and R&D roadmap.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $21.1 million, or a loss of $0.29 per common share, compared to $19.8 million, or a loss of $0.27 per common share, in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Full Year 2022 Financial Results

Revenue for the full year of 2022 was $765 thousand. Revenue was comprised predominantly of the revenue recognized on three instrument placements during the fourth quarter. Operating expenses for 2022 totaled $93.5 million compared to $61.3 million in the prior year period. Operating expenses included non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $13.7 million in 2022 and $9.2 million in 2021. The year-over-year increase in total operating expenses was driven primarily by scaling headcount and infrastructure to support our growth, including the G4 launch, product pipeline and R&D roadmap, and the costs associated with being a public company.

Net loss for 2022 was $90.9 million, or a loss of $1.28 per common share, compared to $98.8 million, or a loss of $2.10 per common share, in 2021.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, excluding restricted cash, as of December 31, 2022 totaled $244.6 million.
