•Net loss was ($9.8) million or ($0.24) per share; non-GAAP net income was $749,000 or $0.02 per share

•Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased 34% to $13.9 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022

•Aortic stent graft revenues increased 30% on a GAAP basis and 22% on a non-GAAP constant currency basis in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022

•On-X revenues increased 14% on a GAAP basis and 13% on a non-GAAP constant currency basis in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022

•Nearing completion of enrollment in the PERSEVERE clinical trial

ATLANTA, GA – (November 2, 2023) – Artivion, Inc. (NYSE: AORT), a leading cardiac and vascular surgery company focused on aortic disease, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

“Our team delivered across the board in the third quarter, making substantial progress on our commercial, operational, and financial goals and initiatives. We delivered double-digit constant currency revenue growth year-over-year for the third consecutive quarter and remain on track to achieve or exceed our revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth targets for this year. Our robust third quarter performance was driven by exceptional year-over-year aortic stent graft revenue growth of 30%, strong On-X revenue growth of 14%, and solid tissue processing growth of 12%, while BioGlue revenue decreased 7% due to ordering patterns in Europe in the third quarter of 2022. On a constant currency basis, year-over-year aortic stent graft, On-X, tissue processing, and BioGlue revenue growth were 22%, 13%, 12%, and (8%), respectively. We also saw Latin American and Asia Pacific revenue grow 29% and 21%, respectively, and on a constant currency basis, 22% and 21%, compared to last year,” said Pat Mackin, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Mackin added, “In addition to our strong commercial results, we have enrolled 90 of the 93 total patients in the PERSEVERE clinical trial putting us on track for 2025 approval. Additionally, positive results presented at EACTS in two late breaking presentations featuring PERSEVERE 30-day patient safety data and real-world data from a 510 patient On-X low INR post approval study should drive enhanced growth in both AMDS and On-X.”

Mr. Mackin concluded, “Given our solid execution in the first nine months of 2023 and strong business momentum, we are once again increasing our top-line guidance and continue on a path to achieve our commitments to deliver 2024 double-digit annual constant currency revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA in excess of $75.0 million.”

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Total revenues for the third quarter of 2023 were $87.9 million, an increase of 14% on a GAAP basis and 12% on a non-GAAP constant currency basis, both compared to the third quarter of 2022.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2023 was ($9.8) million, or ($0.24) per fully diluted common share, compared to net loss of ($13.7) million, or ($0.34) per fully diluted common share for the third quarter of 2022. Net loss for the third quarter of 2023 includes pretax charges of $6.2 million related to contingent consideration for the acquisition of AMDS. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $749,000, or $0.02 per fully diluted common share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of ($1.9) million, or ($0.05) per fully diluted common share for the third quarter of 2022.

2023 Financial Outlook

Artivion is raising its revenue guidance range and now expects to achieve constant currency revenue growth of between 11% and 12%, compared to the previous range of 10% and 12%, for the full year 2023 compared to 2022. The Company expects revenues to be in a range of $349.0 million and $351.0 million, compared to the previous range of $342.0 million and $350.0 million.

Additionally, Artivion continues to expect non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, as reported, to increase by more than 25% in 2023 compared to 2022, resulting in non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in excess of $52.0 million for 2023.

The Company's financial performance for 2023 and future periods is subject to the risks identified below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, and non-GAAP general, administrative, and marketing expenses. Investors should consider this non-GAAP information in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. In addition, this non-GAAP financial information may not be the same as similar measures presented by other companies. The Company's non-GAAP revenues are adjusted for the impact of changes in currency exchange. The Company’s non-GAAP net income; non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA; and non-GAAP general, administrative, and marketing results exclude (as applicable) depreciation and amortization expense; interest income and expense; stock-based compensation expense; loss or gain on foreign currency revaluation; income tax expense or benefit; corporate rebranding expense; business development, integration, and severance income or expense; non-cash interest expense; gain from sale of non-financial assets, and abandonment of CardioGenesis cardiac laser therapy business. The Company generally uses non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's review of the operational performance of the company and as a basis for strategic planning. Company management believes that these non-GAAP presentations provide useful information to investors regarding unusual non-operating transactions; the operating expense structure of the Company's existing and recently acquired operations, without regard to its on-going efforts to acquire additional complementary products and businesses, and the transaction and integration expenses incurred in connection with recently acquired and divested product lines; and the operating expense structure excluding fluctuations resulting from foreign currency revaluation and stock-based compensation expense. The Company believes it is useful to exclude certain expenses because such amounts in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of its business operations or can vary significantly between periods as a result of factors such as impact of recent acquisitions, non-cash expense related to amortization of previously acquired tangible and intangible assets, and any related adjustments to their carrying values. The Company has adjusted for the impact of changes in currency exchange from certain revenues to evaluate comparable product growth rates on a constant currency basis. The Company does, however, expect to incur similar types of expenses and currency exchange impacts in the future, and this non-GAAP financial information should not be viewed as a statement or indication that these types of expenses will not recur. Company management encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety, including the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

Webcast and Conference Call Information

Forward Looking Statements

Statements made in this press release that look forward in time or that express management's beliefs, expectations, or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements reflect the views of management at the time such statements are made. These statements include our beliefs that we remain on track to achieve or exceed our revenue and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA growth targets for this year and to achieve AMDS PMA approval in 2025; the results from the PERSEVERE 30-day patient safety data and the 510 patient On-X low INR post approval study have begun to drive enhanced growth in both AMDS and On-X and will continue to do so; given our solid execution in the first nine months of 2023 and strong business momentum, we continue on a path to achieve our commitments to deliver 2024 double-digit annual constant currency revenue growth and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in excess of $75.0 million; and that we now expect to achieve for the full year 2023, constant currency revenue growth of between 11% and 12%, compared to 2022; revenues of $349.0 million and $351.0 million, and an increase of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, as reported, of more than 25% compared to 2022, resulting in non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in excess of $52.0 million. These forward looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations, including but not limited to the benefits anticipated from the Ascyrus Medical LLC transaction and Endospan agreements may not be achieved at all or at the levels we had originally anticipated; and the benefits anticipated from our clinical trials may not be achieved or achieved on our anticipated timelines. These risks and uncertainties also include the risk factors detailed in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Artivion does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
