SAN FRANCISCO, November 6, 2019 – Invitae Corporation (NYSE: NVTA), a leading medical genetics company, today announced financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.

“With our 26th consecutive quarter of dynamic growth, we continue to demonstrate our ability to grow the business while investing in the technologies necessary to drive the transformation of genetics,” said Sean George, co-founder and chief executive officer of Invitae. “Based on how we are tracking toward our guidance and our demonstrated ability to take share and more importantly expand the market, we believe that we are driving forward as the clear leader in offering comprehensive, medical genetic information at affordable prices access all stages of life.”

Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results
Accessioned more than 129,000 samples in the third quarter of 2019, representing a 65% increase over the 78,000 samples in the third quarter of 2018. Billable volume was approximately 124,000 in the third quarter of 2019
Generated revenue of $56.5 million in the third quarter of 2019, representing a 51% increase over the third quarter of 2018 revenue of $37.4 million

Achieved gross profit of $24.4 million in the third quarter of 2019 compared to $16.9 million of gross profit in the third quarter of 2018

Total operating expense, which excludes cost of revenue, for the third quarter of 2019 was $101.4 million, (non-GAAP operating expense of $79.8 million) compared to $47.0 million for the third quarter of 2018.

For the third quarter of 2019, Invitae reported a net loss of $78.7 million, or a $0.82 loss per share, compared to a net loss of $31.7 million in the third quarter of 2018, or a $0.45 net loss per share.

Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements relating to the company’s financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019; the company’s beliefs regarding estimated guidance for 2019 and future financial performance; the anticipated effective date of the Cigna contract; the impact of the company’s acquisitions, partnerships and product offerings; and the company’s beliefs regarding the growth of its business, its position and impact on the genetic testing industry, its success in executing on its mission and achieving its goals, and the benefits of genetic testing. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the actual results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and the year ending December 31, 2019; the company’s ability to continue to grow its business; the company’s history of losses; the company’s ability to compete; the company’s failure to manage growth effectively; the company’s need to scale its infrastructure in advance of demand for its tests and to increase demand for its tests; the risk that the company may not obtain or maintain sufficient levels of reimbursement for its tests; the company’s failure to successfully integrate or fully realize the anticipated benefits of acquired businesses; the company’s ability to use rapidly changing genetic data to interpret test results accurately and consistently; security breaches, loss of data and other disruptions; laws and regulations applicable to the company’s business; and the other risks set forth in the company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and Invitae Corporation disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Invitae’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the company is providing non-GAAP research and development expense, non-GAAP general and administrative expense, non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP net loss and net loss per share and cash burn, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in evaluation the company's ongoing operating results and trends.






Non-GAAP research and development expense, non-GAAP general and administrative expense, non-GAAP operating expense and non-GAAP net loss exclude acquisition-related stock-based compensation related to inducement grants, post-combination expense related to the acceleration of equity grants in connection with the company's business combinations, and acquisition-related income tax benefits. These non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact on the reported financial results. Management accounts for this limitation by analyzing results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis and also by providing GAAP measures in the company's public disclosures.

Cash burn excludes (1) changes in marketable securities other than investments made in privately held companies, (2) cash received from equity financings, including proceeds from a public offering of common stock in March 2019, (3) net cash received from proceeds from term debt or convertible senior notes, and (4) cash received from exercises of warrants. Management believes cash burn is a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash consumed by the operations of the business. A limitation of using this non-GAAP measure is that cash burn does not represent the total change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash for the period because it excludes cash provided by or used for other operating, investing or financing activities. Management accounts for this limitation by providing information about the company's operating, investing and financing activities in the statements of cash flows in the consolidated financial statements in the company's most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K and by presenting net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities as well as the net increase or decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in its reconciliation of cash burn.

In addition, other companies, including companies in the same industry, may not use cash burn, non-GAAP research and development and general and administrative expense, non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP net loss, or non-GAAP net loss per share or may calculate these metrics in a different manner than management or may use other financial measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of these non-GAAP measures as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, the company's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the non-GAAP reconciliations provided in the tables below.
