908 Devices Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results and Updates Full Year 2022 Outlook

 

Q3 2022 revenue increases 26% over prior year, with gross margin of 59%

 

BOSTON, MA – November 14, 2022 – 908 Devices Inc. (Nasdaq: MASS), a pioneer of purpose-built handheld and desktop mass spec devices for chemical and biomolecular analysis, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

 

“We were pleased with our results for the third quarter as we continue to support our customers’ critical-to-life applications. We also executed the strategic acquisition of TRACE Analytics, which provides in-line testing of critical parameters in the bioreactor and enables us to fast-track development of our on-line REBEL technology,” said Kevin J. Knopp, CEO and Co-founder. “During the quarter, we began to see some slowdown and lengthening of purchase cycles, in large part due to macro-economic pressures, which has resulted in us lowering our expectations for the remainder of the year. Despite near-term headwinds, our team is focused on serving our customers, expanding our user base, and making our technology even more accessible with new product launches planned for early 2023.”

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

 

Revenue was $15.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a 26% increase over the prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by product revenue from an increase in handheld recurring revenue and desktop device placements. Desktop revenue grew 51% year over year because of both increased device sales and increased recurring revenue.

 

The installed base grew to 2,317 placements with 175 devices placed in Q3 2022.

 

Gross profit was $9.3 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $6.8 million for the corresponding prior year period. Gross margin was 59%, as compared to 54% for the corresponding prior year period. The increase in gross margin was driven by the increased product and service revenue and an increase in the average selling price for devices, offset in part by planned investments in personnel and expenses in calendar year 2021 and the first nine months of 2022.

 

Operating expenses were $16.5 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $12.1 million for the corresponding prior year period. This increase was driven by headcount expansion across our business, an increase in stock-based compensation and an increase in marketing activities and travel expenses.

 

 

 

 

Net loss was $6.3 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $5.2 million for the corresponding prior year period. Net loss per share was $0.20 for the third quarter of 2022, compared to a net loss per share of $0.19 for the corresponding prior year period.

 

Cash and cash equivalents were $193.7 million as of September 30, 2022. In addition, the Company had approximately $15.0 million of debt outstanding.

 

2022 Guidance

 

908 Devices is updating its full year 2022 revenue outlook and now expects revenue to be in the range of $46 million to $49 million, representing growth of 13% over full year 2021 at the midpoint of the range.
