“Teknova delivered a solid third quarter revenue performance, driven by robust Lab Essentials growth and healthy demand across our broad customer base,” said Stephen Gunstream, President and CEO of Teknova. “Most recently, we entered the qualification phase of our new state-of-the-art production facility and announced an Early Access Program for the first novel products to emerge from our R&D pipeline. We are balancing selective strategic investments with prudent management of our capital to position Teknova for accelerated growth and remain on our path to profitability.”

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Total revenue for the third quarter 2022 was $10.7 million, up 14% compared to $9.4 million in the third quarter 2021.

Gross profit for the third quarter 2022 was $4.8 million, compared to $4.3 million in the third quarter 2021. Gross margin for the third quarter 2022 was 44.6% of revenue. This compares to gross margin of 45.4% in the third quarter 2021. The lower gross margin for the third quarter 2022 compared to the gross margin in the prior year primarily reflects additional headcount resulting in higher labor costs.

Operating expenses for the third quarter 2022 were $27.7 million compared to $8.2 million in the third quarter 2021. The increase was primarily related to a one-time, $16.6 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge in the quarter, coupled with additional headcount, stock-based compensation expense, and marketing costs.

Net loss for the third quarter 2022 was $22.5 million, or negative $0.80 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $3.3 million, or negative $0.12 per diluted share, for the third quarter 2021.

Cash used in operating activities for the third quarter 2022 was $8.3 million, compared to cash used in operating activities of $4.8 million for the third quarter 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2022 was negative $4.6 million, compared to negative $2.7 million for the third quarter 2021. Free Cash Flow was negative $14.9 million for the third quarter 2022, compared to negative $8.7 million for the third quarter 2021.

2022 Revenue Outlook

Teknova is updating its outlook for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, to total revenue of $40 million to $42 million, which assumes approximately 16% growth at the mid-point of guidance, excluding Sample Transport revenue earned in 2021. The Company expects an approximately 15% increase in Lab Essentials and at least a 25% increase in Clinical Solutions revenue to drive total revenue growth for the year. The Company does not anticipate any material revenue from Sample Transport in 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Teknova uses the following non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the performance of its business and the effectiveness of its business strategies: (a) Adjusted EBITDA and (b) Free Cash Flow.

Teknova defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted for interest income (expense), net, benefit from income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA reflects further adjustments to eliminate the impact of certain items, including certain non-cash and other items that Teknova does not consider representative of its ongoing operating performance.

Teknova defines Free Cash Flow as cash used in operating activities less purchases of property, plant, and equipment.

Teknova presents Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow in this press release because Teknova believes that analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use these measures to evaluate companies in Teknova's industry and that such measures facilitate comparisons on a consistent basis across reporting periods. Teknova also believes such measures are helpful in highlighting trends in Teknova's operating results because they exclude items that are not indicative of Teknova's core operating performance. Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by Teknova may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

A full reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures is included at the end of this release.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this press release about future expectations, plans and prospects, as well as any other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, may constitute “forward-looking statements.” These statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to Teknova’s anticipated total revenue, expected growth in Lab Essentials and Clinical Solutions, ongoing capacity expansion, new research and development products, prospects, including to achieve profitability, and long-term growth strategy. The words, without limitation, “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these or similar identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs and are subject to uncertainties and factors, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond Teknova’s control and could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those described in the forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to, demand for Teknova’s products (including the delay or pausing of customer orders); Teknova’s assessment of fundamental indicators of future demand across its target customer base; Teknova’s ability to expand its production capacity and commercial and R&D capabilities; Teknova’s cash flows and revenue growth rate; Teknova’s supply chain, sourcing, manufacturing and warehousing; inventory management; risks related to global economic and marketplace uncertainties related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of the pandemic on Teknova’s supply chain; reliance on a limited number of customers for a high percentage of Teknova’s revenue; potential acquisitions and integration of other companies and other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of Teknova’s most recent periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in Teknova’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, all of which you may obtain for free on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Although Teknova believes that the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable, Teknova does not know whether its expectations will prove correct. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof, even if subsequently made available by Teknova on its website or otherwise. Teknova does not undertake any obligation to update, amend or clarify these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
