MASON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- AtriCure, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATRC), a leading innovator in surgical treatments and therapies for atrial fibrillation (Afib), left atrial appendage (LAA) management and post-operative pain management, announced preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023 and provided 2024 financial guidance.

Preliminary, unaudited revenue for fourth quarter 2023 is expected to be $106.5 million, reflecting growth of approximately 21% over the fourth quarter of 2022 (20% on a constant currency basis). U.S. revenue is expected to be $88.7 million, reflecting growth of approximately 20%, and international revenue is expected to be $17.8 million, an increase of approximately 26% as reported (22% on a constant currency basis). Fourth quarter revenue was driven by strong growth in Hybrid AF™ therapy, followed by sales of our AtriClip^®, Encompass^®, and cryoSPHERE^® devices.

Preliminary, unaudited revenue for full year 2023 is expected to be $399.2 million, reflecting growth of approximately 21% over full year 2022 (21% on a constant currency basis). As previously communicated, management expects full year 2023 positive adjusted EBITDA of approximately $18 million to $20 million, and full year 2023 adjusted loss per share of approximately $0.74 to $0.76. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted loss per share and constant currency revenue growth are non-GAAP measures. AtriCure will provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the related GAAP measure in the release of audited 2023 results.
