PacBio Announces First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Menlo Park, Calif. – May 4, 2022 – PacBio (NASDAQ: PACB) today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

First quarter results

Revenue of $33.2 million, a 14% increase compared with $29.0 million in the prior year period.

Delivered a record 50 Sequel II/IIe systems during the quarter compared to 41 Sequel II/IIe systems placed in the prior year quarter.

Installed base of 424 Sequel II/IIe systems as of March 31, 2022, compared with 244 as of March 31, 2021.

Instrument revenue of $15.6 million, compared with $14.9 million in the prior-year period.

Consumables revenue of $12.7 million compared with $10.4 million in the prior-year period.

Service and other revenue of $4.9 million compared with $3.7 million in the prior-year period.

"Our team continued to make progress expanding our installed base with our third consecutive quarter of record Sequel II/IIe placements," said Christian Henry, President and Chief Executive Officer. "As expected, COVID-19 restrictions created challenges for both our customers and our team which lowered system utilization, but we believe those challenges are transitory and our continued strength in system placements and our recent Sequel IIe platform enhancements can enable more customers to realize the benefits of our technology than ever before. Additionally, PacBio is in a strong financial position, and based on our estimates, we intend to fund the company’s current development and commercialization plans using the cash and investments on our balance sheet until we reach positive operating cash flows, without needing to raise additional capital."

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2022 was $14.2 million, representing a 9% increase compared with $13.0 million for the first quarter of 2021 and gross margin of 43% in the period compared to 45% for the first quarter of 2021. Excluding amortization of intangible assets, non-GAAP gross profit for the first quarter of 2022 was $14.3 million and represented a non-GAAP gross margin of 43% in the first quarter of 2022, compared to 45% for the first quarter of 2021 (see accompanying tables for reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP measures).

Operating expenses totaled $91.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to $46.7 million for the first quarter of 2021. Excluding contingent consideration remeasurement and amortization of intangible assets, non-GAAP operating expenses totaled $92.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to $46.7 million for the first quarter of 2021. Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2021 included non-cash stock-based compensation of $20.9 million and $9.2 million, respectively.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2022 was $81.5 million, compared to a net loss of $87.4 million for the first quarter of 2021. Excluding contingent consideration remeasurement and amortization of intangible assets in the first quarter of 2022 and the $52.0 million loss from the repayment of Continuation Advances to Illumina in the first quarter of 2021, non-GAAP net loss was $82.3 million, compared to $35.4 million for the prior-year period.

GAAP net loss per share for the first quarter of 2022 was $0.37 compared to GAAP net loss per share of $0.45 for the first quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net loss per share for the first quarter of 2022 was $0.37 compared to $0.18 for the first quarter of 2021.

Statement regarding use of non‐GAAP financial measures

The Company reports non‐GAAP results for basic and diluted net income and loss per share, net income, net loss, gross margins, gross profit and operating expenses in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or because it believes that such information is superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.

The Company's financial measures under GAAP include substantial charges such as merger related expenses, and others that are listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures included in this press release. The amortization of intangible assets excluded from GAAP financial measures relates to acquired intangible assets that were recorded as part of the purchase accounting this year. Such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation and its amortization will recur in future periods until they are fully amortized. Management has excluded the effects of these items in non‐GAAP measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance. In addition, management uses non-GAAP measures to compare the Company’s

performance relative to forecasts and strategic plans and to benchmark its performance externally against competitors.

The Company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non‐GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. A reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.
