Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2021 was $26.7 million, a 96% increase compared to $13.6 million for the same period last year, which reflected significant disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in both U.S. and International markets. U.S. revenue for the second quarter of 2021 was $21.7 million, a 79% increase compared to $12.1 million for the same period last year, representing 81.4% of total revenue. International revenue for the second quarter of 2021 was $5.0 million, a 243% increase compared to $1.4 million for the same period last year, representing 18.6% of total revenue. The significant increase reflects the improvements in underlying procedure volumes in both the U.S. and international markets compared to the second quarter of 2020, in addition to the benefit of converting Germany, Austria, and Switzerland to a direct agency sales model.
Trauma and Deformity revenue for the second quarter of 2021 was $17.9 million, a 95% increase compared to $9.2 million for the same period last year, driven by strong sales in PNP, Cannulated Screws, and Orthex. Scoliosis revenue was $7.7 million, a 100% increase compared to $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2020, reflecting increased patient volumes and growth in Response and Firefly procedures, as well as initial contribution from ApiFix. Sports Medicine/other revenue for the second quarter of 2021 was $1.1 million, a 106% increase compared to $0.5 million for the same period last year. Growth in the quarter was driven by Telos Partners’ consulting contracts and repeat advisory business.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2021 was $20.4 million, a 103% increase compared to $10.1 million for the same period last year. Gross profit margin for the second quarter of 2021 improved to 76.6%, compared to 74.0% for the same period last year due to a higher percentage mix of domestic and international agency sales.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 were $23.3 million, a 36% increase compared to $17.1 million for the same period last year. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by increased commission expense and increased depreciation and amortization costs. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2021 was ($2.8) million compared to ($7.0) million for the same period last year.
Total other expenses for the second quarter of 2021 were $1.2 million, compared to $2.4 million for the same period last year, primarily driven by lower net interest expense.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2021 was ($3.8) million, compared to ($9.4) million for the same period last year. Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period was ($0.19) per basic and diluted share, compared to ($0.54) per basic and diluted share for the same period last year. Adjusted diluted loss per share was ($0.11) compared to ($0.44) for the same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2021 was $1.2 million as compared to a loss of ($2.3) million for the second quarter of 2020 driven by higher revenue with controlled spending.
As of June 30, 2021, cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash were $67.2 million compared to $78.0 million as of March 31, 2021. The Company had no outstanding term loan obligations.
Full Year 2021 Financial Guidance
For full year 2021, the Company is increasing its full year revenue guidance range to $97 to $101 million, up from $94 to $98 million, representing 36% to 42% growth over 2020 revenue. The Company is seeing strong momentum in the U.S., management continues to take a measured approach given the potential headwinds resulting from the COVID-19 Delta variant. Management also expects regional variability to persist in international markets as hospitals continue to work through backlogs and countries face challenges with COVID-19 surges.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “target,” “predict,” “intend,” “future,” “goals,” “potential,” “objective,” “would” and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond OrthoPediatrics’ control. Important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including, among others: the risks related to COVID-19, the impact such pandemic may have on the demand for our products, and our ability to respond to the related challenges; and the risks, uncertainties and factors set forth under “Risk Factors” in OrthoPediatrics’ Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021, as updated and supplemented by our other SEC reports filed from time to time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. OrthoPediatrics assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, subsequent events, or circumstances or other changes affecting such statements except to the extent required by applicable securities laws.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA, which differ from financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Adjusted earnings (loss) per share in this press release represents diluted earnings (loss) per share on a GAAP basis, plus the accreted interest attributable to acquisition installment payables, the fair value adjustment of contingent consideration, non-recurring professional fees and accrued legal settlement costs. The fair value adjustment of contingent consideration is associated with our estimates of the value of earn-outs in connection with certain acquisitions and the non-recurring professional fees are related to our response to a previously disclosed SEC review. We believe that providing the non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share excluding these expenses, as well as the GAAP measures, assists our investors because such expenses are not reflective of our ongoing operating results. Adjusted EBITDA in this release represents net loss, plus interest expense, net plus other expense, provision for income taxes (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, fair value adjustment of contingent consideration, acquisition related costs, nonrecurring professional fees and accrued legal settlements costs. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures provided in this earnings release enable it to further and more consistently analyze the period-to-period financial performance of its core business operating performance. Management uses these metrics as a measure of the Company’s operating performance and for planning purposes, including financial projections. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors as supplemental information because they are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in its industry. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to, or superior to, net income or loss as a measure of financial performance or cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and it should not be construed to imply that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, the measure is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as debt service requirements, capital expenditures and other cash costs that may recur in the future. Adjusted EBITDA contains certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and other potential cash requirements. In evaluating these non-GAAP measures, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The Company’s presentation of non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share or Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on the Company’s GAAP results in addition to using these adjusted measures on a supplemental basis. The Company’s definition of these measures is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation. The schedules below contain reconciliations of reported GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share to non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) and net loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA.
