Endologix Reports Results for the Third Quarter 2016
IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 01, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Endologix, Inc. (NASDAQ:ELGX), developer and marketer of innovative treatments for aortic disorders, today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
John McDermott, Endologix Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We have now delivered three consecutive quarters with good top-line results following the TriVascular merger, highlighting the positive momentum of our product platforms and expanded sales organization in the market. Growth was strong in the U.S. and international markets, reflecting our progress with the merger integration and the recent launch of AFX2 in the U.S. and Europe. Looking forward, we have multiple growth drivers anticipated in 2017, including the LUCY data for the Ovation platform, potential CE Mark for Ovation Alto and Nellix ChEVAS, and potential FDA approval of Nellix.”
Financial Results
As a result of its merger with TriVascular Technologies, Inc. completed on February 3, 2016, Endologix’s GAAP results (“as reported”) include TriVascular's results from that date forward. In addition to reporting GAAP results, Endologix is providing a comparison to pro-forma financial results. The pro-forma results combine standalone Endologix and TriVascular results for the third quarter of 2015 and nine months ended September 30, 2015 in their entirety.
Global revenue in the third quarter of 2016 was $52.1 million, a 36% increase from $38.2 million in the third quarter of 2015 and a 10% constant currency increase from pro-forma revenue of $47.7 million in the third quarter of 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, global revenue was $145.5 million, a 27% increase from $114.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and a 3% increase from pro-forma revenue of $141.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
U.S. revenue in the third quarter of 2016 was $36.3 million, a 35% increase as reported and a 9% increase from pro-forma U.S. revenue of $33.4 million in the third quarter 2015. International revenue was $15.8 million, a 40% increase as reported and a 10% increase from pro-forma international revenue of $14.3 million in the third quarter of 2015. On constant currency basis, third quarter 2016 international revenue increased 42% as reported and increased 12% on a pro-forma basis.
Gross profit was $36.9 million in the third quarter of 2016, which represents a gross margin of 71%, compared to a gross margin of 71% as reported and 69% on a pro-forma basis in the third quarter of 2015. Gross profit was $94.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, representing a gross margin of 65%. This compares to a gross margin of 68% as reported and 67% on a pro-forma basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2016 gross profit was negatively impacted by $2.0 million and $9.9 million related to purchase price accounting for inventory and intangible assets acquired by Endologix in the TriVascular merger. Excluding this impact, third quarter 2016 gross margin was 75% and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was 72%.
Total operating expenses were $48.2 million in the third quarter of 2016, compared to $36.4 million as reported and $53.8 million on a pro-forma basis in the third quarter of 2015. Third quarter 2016 operating expenses included $0.4 million for expenses related to the TriVascular merger. Excluding these items, operating expenses in the third quarter of 2016 as compared to pro-forma operating expenses in the third quarter of 2015 were lower by $6.1 million, or 11%, driven by synergy savings resulting from the TriVascular merger. For the nine months ending September 30, 2016, total research & development expenses were 14% lower and total selling, general and administrative expenses were 8% lower as compared to pro-forma reported expenses for the nine months ending September 30, 2015.
Net loss for the third quarter of 2016 was $15.2 million, or $(0.18) per share, compared with net loss of $10.9 million, or $(0.16) per share, and pro-forma net loss of $24.5 million for the third quarter of 2015. Endologix reported a negative Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP and defined below) for the third quarter of 2016 of $3.8 million, compared with a pro-forma negative Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2015 of $15.1 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Endologix reported a net loss of $129.8 million, or $(1.61) per share, compared with net loss of $35.1 million, or $(0.52) per share, and pro-forma net loss of $79.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Endologix reported a negative Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP and defined below) for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 of $28.2 million, compared with a pro-forma negative Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 of $52.7 million.
Total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities were $63.0 million as of September 30, 2016, compared to $177.3 million as of December 31, 2015. During the third quarter of 2016, the Company used $2.3 million for merger related expenses. In late July, the Company secured a $50 million revolving 4-year credit facility with MidCap Financial, providing additional cash resources for the Company as it continues to execute on its growth and integration initiatives.
Financial Guidance
Based on the results through the first nine months of the year and the current business outlook, Endologix is narrowing its full year 2016 revenue guidance. Endologix anticipates 2016 revenue to be in the range of $198 million to $201 million, compared to $197 million to $203 million previously, representing growth of 4% to 6% compared to the pro-forma combined revenue results of Endologix and TriVascular in 2015. Endologix anticipates 2016 GAAP loss per share of $(1.80) to $(1.85) per share. This guidance excludes purchase price accounting impacts related to the TriVascular merger.

About Endologix
Endologix, Inc. develops and manufactures minimally invasive treatments for aortic disorders. The Company's focus is endovascular stent grafts for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). AAA is a weakening of the wall of the aorta, the largest artery in the body, resulting in a balloon-like enlargement. Once AAA develops, it continues to enlarge and, if left untreated, becomes increasingly susceptible to rupture. The overall patient mortality rate for ruptured AAA is approximately 80%, making it a leading cause of death in the U.S. Additional information can be found on Endologix's website at www.endologix.com.
The Nellix® EndoVascular Aneurysm Sealing System has obtained CE Mark in the EU and is only approved as an investigational device in the United States.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Endologix's management believes that the non-GAAP measures of (1) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)" and (2) “Adjusted EBITDA" enhance an investor's overall understanding of Endologix's financial and operating performance and its future prospects by (i) being more reflective of core operating performance and (ii) being more comparable with financial results over various periods. Endologix's management uses these financial measures for strategic decision making, forecasting future financial results, and evaluating current period financial and operating performance. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Definition:
"GAAP" is generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
(1) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)" is a non-GAAP measure defined by Endologix as net income (loss) under GAAP, excluding: (i) the fair value adjustment to the Nellix acquisition contingent consideration; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; (iii) foreign currency (gains) or losses; (iv) legal settlement costs; (v) contract termination and business acquisition expenses; (vi) business development expenses, including licensing costs related to research and development activities; (vii) restructuring and other transition costs; (viii) fair value adjustment of derivative liabilities; and (ix) inventory step-up amortization.
In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, this GAAP adjustment to net loss specifically represents: (i) the fair value adjustment to Nellix contingent consideration liability; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; (iii) foreign currency (gains) or losses; (iv) legal settlement costs; (v) contract termination and business acquisition expenses; (vi) restructuring and other transition costs; (vii) fair value adjustment of derivative liabilities; and (viii) inventory step-up amortization.
In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, this GAAP adjustment to net loss specifically represents: (i) the fair value adjustment to the Nellix contingent consideration liability; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; and (iii) foreign currency (gains) or losses; and (iv) business development expenses.
In future periods, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) will continue to exclude: (i) the fair value adjustments to the Nellix contingent consideration liability; (ii) interest expense from the Company's convertible debt; (iii) foreign currency (gains) or losses; (iv) legal settlement costs; (v) contract termination and business acquisition expenses; (vi) business development expenses; (vii) restructuring and other transition costs; (viii) fair value adjustment of derivative liabilities; (ix) inventory step-up amortization; and (x) other non-recurring expenses or income, as described by Endologix.
