STAAR Surgical Reports First Quarter 2024 Results

STAAR Surgical Company (NASDAQ: K), a leading developer, manufacturer and marketer of the EVO family of Implantable Collamer® Lenses (EVO ICL™) for myopia, astigmatism and presbyopia, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 29, 2024.

First Quarter 2024 Overview

  • Net sales up 5% to $77.4 million and up 7% in constant currency
  • ICL sales up 9% and units up 2%
  • Gross margin at 78.9% vs. 78.3% year ago
  • Net loss of $3.3 million or $0.07 loss per share vs. net income of $2.7 million or $0.05 income per share year ago
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $5.3 million or $0.11 per share vs. $10.0 million or $0.20 per share year ago
  • Record cash, cash equivalents and investments available for sale of $252.1 million at March 29, 2024

“Our first quarter results illustrate the impact of our commercial focus, which is driving continued market adoption and share gains of our EVO ICL,” said Tom Frinzi, President and CEO of STAAR Surgical. “Our strategic investments in people and processes in recent quarters are now bearing fruit. We are very pleased by the quickening pace of our momentum to start 2024, marked by several significant business milestones, including today’s announcement of the largest-ever practice commitment to EVO ICL in the U.S.”

Mr. Frinzi continued, “In the first quarter, STAAR continued to capture market share during a challenging macroeconomic environment for our surgeon customers and their patients. We saw strong momentum and remain well positioned to capitalize on our growth opportunities. In the U.S., sales were $5 million in the quarter, up 15% year over year and 21% sequentially. In APAC, we generated 9% sales growth, which was above our expectations, including 10% growth in China. Our EMEA region exceeded our expectations during the quarter, generating 11% sales growth with Belgium and the Netherlands joining China and Japan with a 20%+ share of refractive industry procedures1. Spain, one of Europe’s largest markets for refractive vision correction, is also quickly approaching 20% market share. The investments in our European markets started just a few years ago and are now paying off. For fiscal 2024, we are reiterating our net sales outlook range of $335 million to $340 million and expect, based on current trends, to be at the higher end of the range.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Net sales were $77.4 million for the first quarter of 2024, up 5% compared to $73.5 million reported in the prior year quarter. The sales increase in the first quarter was driven by ICL sales growth of $6.5 million, up 9%, and unit growth of 2% as compared to the prior year period. Cataract IOL and Other Product sales were down $2.7 million as compared to the prior year period. The Company exited its cataract IOL business in fiscal 2023.

Gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2024 was 78.9% of net sales compared to the prior year quarter of 78.3% of net sales. Product and country mix favorably impacted gross margin in the first quarter of 2024 as compared to the prior year quarter.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2024 were $63.3 million compared to the prior year quarter of $54.8 million. General and administrative expenses were $23.2 million compared to the prior year quarter of $18.1 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to increased outside services and facilities costs. Selling and marketing expenses were $26.7 million compared to the prior year quarter of $26.4 million. The increase in selling and marketing expenses was due to increased compensation-related expenses, trade shows and meetings expenses offset by decreased advertising and promotional activities. Research and development expenses were $13.4 million compared to the prior year quarter of $10.3 million. The increase in research and development expenses was due primarily to increased compensation-related expenses.

Operating loss for the first quarter of 2024 was $2.3 million or 2.9% of net sales as compared to operating income of $2.8 million or 3.8% of net sales for the first quarter of 2023.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2024 was $3.3 million or $0.07 loss per share compared with net income of $2.7 million or $0.05 income per share for the prior year quarter. The decrease in net income was attributable to increased SG&A expenses and losses on foreign currency transactions, partially offset by higher gross profit.

Cash, cash equivalents and investments available for sale at March 29, 2024, totaled $252.1 million, compared to $232.4 million at December 29, 2023.

Outlook

The Company reiterated its prior outlook for fiscal year 2024 net sales and increased its outlook for Adjusted EBITDA. The Company now expects the following for fiscal year 2024:

  • Net sales of $335 million to $340 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $39 million and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share of approximately $0.75, compared to prior outlook of Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $36 million and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share of approximately $0.70.

The outlook above contemplates EVO ICL sales growth of approximately 7% in APAC, including 10% in China; 10% growth in the Americas, including 10% in the U.S.; and EMEA sales consistent with fiscal year 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables include certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its evaluation of Company operating performance and believes investors will find them useful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance, including cash flow generation, and in analyzing period-to-period financial performance of core business operations and underlying business trends. Non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by adding interest income and expense, net; provision for income taxes; and depreciation and amortization to net income. In calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share, the Company further adjusts for stock-based compensation expense. As stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense can assist investors in comparisons of Company operating results with other peer companies because (i) the amount of such expense in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations and (ii) such expense can vary significantly between periods as a result of the timing of grants of new stock-based awards, including inducement grants in connection with hiring. Additionally, the Company believes that excluding stock-based compensation from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share assists management and investors in making meaningful comparisons between the Company’s operating performance and the operating performance of other companies that may use different forms of employee compensation or different valuation methodologies for their stock-based compensation. Investors should note that stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to employees whose efforts contributed to the operating results in the periods presented and are expected to contribute to operating results in future periods. Investors should also note that such expenses will recur in the future.

The Company also presents certain financial information on a constant currency basis, which is intended to exclude the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. The Company conducts a significant part of its activities outside the U.S. It receives sales revenue and pays expenses principally in U.S. dollars, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and euros. The exchange rates between dollars and non-U.S. currencies can fluctuate greatly and can have a significant effect on the Company’s results when reported in U.S. dollars. In order to compare the Company's performance from period to period without the effect of currency, the Company will apply the same average exchange rate applicable in the prior period, or the “constant currency” rate to sales or expenses in the current period as well.

In the tables provided below, the Company has included a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share to net income and net income per diluted share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as supplemental financial information with net sales expressed in constant currency. The Company has also provided a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share to net income and net income per diluted share. This represents forward-looking information, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the Safe Harbor section of this press release.
