AVITA Medical Reports Second Quarter Financial Results

VALENCIA, Calif., Aug. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AVITA Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: RCEL, ASX: AVH) (the “Company”), a regenerative medicine company leading the development and commercialization of first-in-class devices and autologous cellular therapies for skin restoration, today reported financial results for the second quarter June 30, 2023.

Financial Highlights and Recent Updates

  • Commercial revenue of $11.7 million, a 42% increase compared to $8.2 million for the same period in 2022
  • Received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of premarket approval (PMA) supplement for the use of RECELL to treat full-thickness skin defects on June 7
  • Initiated commercial launch of full-thickness skin defects, along with additional eligible burn procedures, with expanded U.S. commercial organization on June 8
  • Received FDA approval of PMA application to use RECELL for repigmentation of stable depigmented vitiligo lesions on June 16
  • Submitted PMA supplement for automated cell disaggregation device, RECELL GO™, which maintains the FDA Breakthrough Device designation
  • As of June 30, 2023, $68.8 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, with no debt

“We had an extraordinary second quarter with significant revenue growth, two landmark FDA approvals, and a pivotal FDA submission,” said Jim Corbett, AVITA Medical Chief Executive Officer. “As anticipated, our expanded U.S. commercial organization was fully prepared for the FDA approval of full-thickness skin defects. Our proactive preparation enabled us to initiate the commercial launch the day after receiving FDA approval. Additionally, our PMA supplement for RECELL GO is on track, and we expect approval before the end of the year. Collectively, these approvals and submission mark significant advancement of our platform, empowering us to continue to unlock our growth potential.”

Future Milestones

  • Anticipate FDA approval of RECELL GO by December 27, 2023
  • Conducting post-market study with vitiligo patients to demonstrate the repigmentation and mental health benefits of treatment with RECELL, and reduction of associated health care costs
  • Pursuing site of service reimbursement for the use of RECELL in the physician office setting, which is expected in 2025

Financial Guidance

  • Commercial revenue for the third quarter 2023 is expected to be in the range of $13 to $14 million
  • Raising commercial revenue for the full year 2023 from $49 to $51 million to an expected range of $51 to $53 million
  • Gross margin for the full year 2023 expected to be in the range of 83% to 85%

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Our commercial revenue, which excludes Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) revenue, increased by 42% to $11.7 million in the three-months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $8.2 million in the same period in 2022. Total revenue, which includes BARDA revenue, increased by 41% to $11.8 million compared to $8.3 million in the same period in 2022.

Gross profit margin decreased by 2% to 81% compared to 83% for the second quarter of 2022. The decrease was largely driven by lower production in one month of the quarter caused by the need to qualify new vendors for certain manufacturing components.

Total operating expenses for the quarter increased by 53% to $21.1 million, compared to $13.9 million in the same period in 2022, primarily due to the significant increase of the commercial organization in preparation of the full-thickness skin defect launch. Additionally, our research and development expenses increased by approximately $2.0 million due to ongoing development of the RECELL GO device and costs associated with our Medical Science Liaison team.

Net loss was $10.4 million, or a loss of $0.41 per share, compared to a net loss of $6.3 million, or a loss of $0.25 per share, in the same period in 2022.

BARDA income consisted of funding from the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, under the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, under ongoing USG Contract No. HHSO100201500028C.
