TELA Bio Reports Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results and Refinancing and Upsizing of Credit Facility

 

MALVERN, PA, November 13, 2025 -- TELA Bio, Inc. ("TELA Bio"), a commercial-stage medical technology company focused on providing innovative soft-tissue reconstruction solutions, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

 

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights

 

·Revenue of $20.7 million, a 9% increase from the third quarter of 2024

·Revised full year 2025 revenue guidance of at least 16% growth over full year 2024

 

Recent Strategic Highlights

 

·Strengthened capital position with a credit facility up to $70.0 million debt with Perceptive Advisors

·Expanded Board capabilities with appointments of Betty Jo Rocchio and Bill Plovanic

·Accelerated hiring in the US sales organization, achieving 2025 target

 

“We demonstrated continued growth and meaningful progress this quarter, resulting from a strengthened leadership team and strategic changes to enhance our commercial organization,” said Antony Koblish, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer.

 

“I am pleased to see that the changes we’ve implemented within our sales organization are translating into tangible momentum,” said Jeffrey Blizard, President. “Our continued focus on building a patient-centric, performance-driven culture—grounded in fiscal discipline—is delivering results and laying a strong foundation to re-accelerate growth in 2026.”

 

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

 

Revenue was $20.7 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of 9% compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the addition of new customers, growing international sales, and the U.S. launch of larger-sized OviTex PRS configuration. This growth was partially offset by a decrease in average selling prices for our hernia products, caused by a shift in product mix as the share of smaller-sized units increased.

 

Gross profit was $14.0 million in the third quarter of 2025, or 67.5% of revenue, compared to $12.9 million, or 67.8% of revenue, in the same period in 2024.

 

 

 

Operating expenses were $21.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $22.2 million in the same period in 2024. The decrease was due to lower compensation and benefits primarily from less severance costs and decreased travel expenses, which were partially offset by higher commission costs on an increased revenue base, additional study and outside development costs, and increased professional fees.

 

Loss from operations was $7.6 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to a loss from operations of $9.4 million in the same period in 2024.

 

Net loss was $8.6 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to a net loss of $10.4 million in the same period in 2024.

 

Cash and cash equivalents on September 30, 2025, totaled $29.7 million.

 

Revised 2025 Financial Guidance

 

Full year 2025 revenue is projected to grow at least 16% over 2024.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Company closed on a credit facility for up to $70.0 million from Perceptive Advisors (“Perceptive”). The Perceptive credit facility consists of an initial loan of $60.0 million received at closing and an additional $10.0 million that can be drawn at the Company’s option by April 30, 2027 upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including, but not limited to, the achievement of net revenue thresholds. The facility matures on November 14, 2030, and bears interest at a rate equal to 7.85% plus the greater of one-month Term SOFR or 4.25%. The facility is interest-only until maturity.
