SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tandem Diabetes Care®, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNDM), a medical device company and manufacturer of the only touchscreen insulin pump available in the United States, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
Second Quarter 2018 Results
In comparing the second quarter of 2018 to the same period of 2017:
- Pump shipments increased 59 percent to 5,447 pumps from 3,427 pumps
- Sales increased 60 percent to $34.1 million from $21.3 million
- Operating margin improved to negative 41 percent from negative 89 percent
“We are increasing our sales guidance for the year following our continued record growth in the second quarter,” said Kim Blickenstaff, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We look to further this momentum through our upcoming launch of the t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Basal-IQ Technology and by progressing our product pipeline as we work to improve the lives of people with diabetes.”
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2018 increased 89 percent to $15.1 million, compared to $8.0 million for the same period of 2017. Gross margin was 44 percent for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to 38 percent in the same period of 2017.
For the second quarter of 2018, operating expenses totaled $29.1 million, compared to $27.0 million for the same period of 2017. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $14.0 million, compared to $19.0 million for the same period of 2017. Operating margin for the second quarter was negative 41 percent compared to negative 89 percent in the same period of last year. Both operating loss and operating margin included non-cash charges for stock-based compensation of $2.7 million and depreciation and amortization of $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to stock-based compensation of $5.1 million and depreciation and amortization of $1.6 million, for the comparable period of 2017.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $59.4 million, which included a $42.5 million non-cash charge for the change in fair value of the Series A and Series B warrants issued in the Company’s October 2017 financing. This compares to a net loss of $21.8 million for the second quarter of 2017.
Cash Balance and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $96.5 million in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash. This included $29.2 million in net proceeds from the exercise of Series A and Series B warrants, of which $22.7 million were exercised in the second quarter of 2018.
2018 Annual Guidance
For the year ending December 31, 2018, the Company is updating its financial guidance as follows:
- Sales are estimated to be in the range of $140 million to $148 million, which represents an annual sales growth of 30 percent to 38 percent compared to 2017.
- Annual sales for 2017 benefited from $5.0 million in previously deferred sales that were recognized during the period1.
- Operating margin is estimated to be in the range of negative 45 percent to negative 40 percent, which includes:
- Approximately $20.0 million in non-cash, stock-based compensation expense
- Approximately $7.0 million to $8.0 million of depreciation and amortization
1 Beginning in the third quarter of 2016 through the third quarter of 2017, the Company offered a Technology Upgrade Program under a variable pricing structure, as a pathway for certain existing customers to obtain the t:slim X2TM Insulin Pump. This program resulted in a number of accounting complexities that makes comparisons of our current and historical financial results more difficult. In particular, during the term of the program, accounting guidelines required us to defer up to 100 percent of sales at the time of pump shipment and recognize them in a subsequent period, either when the upgrade was fulfilled or at the expiration of the program.
