Butterfly Network Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

 

Record Revenue with Momentum in Both Health Systems and Software

 

 

 

Burlington, MA., and New York, NY, November 3, 2022 -- Butterfly Network, Inc. (NYSE: BFLY) (“Butterfly”), a digital health company transforming care with handheld, whole-body ultrasound, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, and provided a business update.

 

Highlights

 

Reported total revenue of $19.6 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, representing a 34.2% increase from $14.6 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021
   
Introduced Butterfly’s “Cloud 2.0” software, a launch that included several new product features and a Proficiency Management Solution for our Blueprint platform, that makes it even easier to manage your workflows and analysis across an institution. We are now providing Blueprint at Yale New Haven Health and signed a new contract with Stanford that includes an expanded system footprint of our enterprise software and probes.
   
Kicked off a first-of-its-kind clinical study, with the John Muir Cardiovascular Institution Research department, to evaluate a novel tool developed by Butterfly to provide novice clinicians—and patients—with the ability to assess pulmonary congestion themselves.
   
Partnership with Abdul Latif Jameel Health (ALJ) continues to strengthen with our recent launch in India. Through our partners, Butterfly will be available to the approximately 1 million registered physicians in the country, and we will bring our technology to practitioners working in developed, underdeveloped and remote areas, accelerating access to imaging for those who need it most.
   
Partnership with Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (announced in first quarter) to improve maternal and fetal health in Sub-Saharan Africa with Butterfly iQ+ is on track, as we officially deployed 500 Butterfly iQ+ devices to healthcare practitioners in Kenya, at an event at Kenyatta University, and another 500 probes will be deployed to South Africa early next year.

 

 

 

 

Continued momentum in veterinary markets as Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine announced Butterfly iQ+ Vet integration into the first year of the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and Veterinary Nursing program.
   
Tightly managed our expenses and effectuated a planned workforce reduction in the quarter, informed by the better understanding of our strategic investment priorities, leading to lower operating expenses and extended cash runway.

 

“This past quarter has been an important one for our learning and trajectory as a young and agile company that is on a mission to enable more informed clinical decisions through access to valuable clinical insights using innovative ultrasound technology, made simple with artificial intelligence – so that all people everywhere, get the right care, driven by the right clinical decisions at the right time,” said Dr. Todd Fruchterman, Butterfly’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “With Butterfly, providers now have the ability to use ultrasound to guide their assessment instead of doing an ultrasound to confirm their decision which will lead to a major shift in how medicine is practiced, and care is delivered across all settings.” Fruchterman continued “This shift will take time because we are leading people through behavior change but the signals we are receiving and the conversations we are having in the market reassert that Butterfly has the ability to fundamentally change the care-delivery experience for providers and patients alike. We believe as strongly today as we ever have that Butterfly has the power to be as ubiquitous as the stethoscope, in its utility in patient assessment, across all specialties, species and care settings. Our path to transformation at scale is on the right track and while our rate of revenue growth was slower than we anticipated, we are receptive to the learnings in the market and adapting where needed. We are also evolving as a company to bring discipline to both how we generate revenue and manage expense.” Fruchterman added.

 

Looking at our 2022 guidance. Interest in Butterfly is strong and the long-term opportunity and available market for our products is clear. As many in our industry have noted, intensified labor constraints in the third quarter and associated budget pressures from temporary labor costs have limited client-side implementation capabilities and caused deferrals in adoption of medical technology more broadly. As we do not have a good faith basis to assume this will immediately reverse in the fourth quarter, along with our change in sales leadership, we believe it is prudent to revise our full year guidance to $73-$76 million. However, due to the actions taken in Q3 and additional control measures we are able to reiterate our adjusted EBITDA guidance in the range of a loss of $155-$145 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company provides additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (“non-GAAP”). The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin. The Company presents non-GAAP financial measures in order to assist readers of its condensed consolidated financial statements in understanding the core operating results that its management uses to evaluate the business and for financial planning purposes. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin, provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial performance over multiple periods.

 

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin are key performance measures that the Company’s management uses to assess our operating performance. These non-GAAP measures facilitate internal comparisons of the Company’s operating performance on a more consistent basis. The Company uses these performance measures for business planning purposes and forecasting. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin enhance an investor’s understanding of the Company’s financial performance as they are useful in assessing its operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that the Company believes are not representative of its core business.

 

 

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate these measures in the same manner. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. When evaluating the Company’s performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin alongside other financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, including net loss, gross profit, and gross margin.

 

The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of the Company’s GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. In this press release, the Company has provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, Adjusted gross profit to gross profit, and Adjusted gross margin to gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross margin to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the non-cash component of employee compensation expense, changes in its working capital needs, variances in its supply chain, the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters the Company considers not to be reflective, on a recurring basis, of its ongoing operations, and other such items without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to the Company’s results computed in accordance with GAAP. Management strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
