BIOLASE Reports Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Clinically Proven Product Portfolio Reduces Potential Risk of Infectious Pathogens; Creates Significant Growth Opportunities as Dental Professionals Seek Safer Technologies to Treat Patients Bolstered Balance Sheet Provides Resources to Weather COVID-19 Impact and Execute Longer-Term Growth Strategy

FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif., Aug. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — BIOLASE, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOL), the global leader in dental lasers, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 and provided a business update.

“Despite the ongoing challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the developments in the quarter and more recently position BIOLASE for success,” commented Todd Norbe, President and Chief Executive Officer.  “Our Epic Hygiene dental laser meets the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines to minimize the risk of COVID-19, while our all-tissue Waterlase dental lasers already create 98% less aerosol than traditional dental handpieces, meeting the American Dental Association’s recommendation of reduced aerosol production to limit the spread of infectious pathogens, such as COVID-19. I believe these unique attributes will meet the rising needs of dentists and patients and will contribute significantly to our success as dental practices reopen and procedures return to pre-COVID-19 levels.  

“I also believe the oversubscribed rights offering we recently completed and the registered direct offering in June demonstrate investor confidence in our growth strategy. We believe our current liquidity position and our cost containment efforts provide us with sufficient capital to effectively execute on our growth strategy.”

2020 Second Quarter Financial Results

Net revenue for the second quarter of 2020 was $2.9 million, a decrease of 66%, compared to net revenue of $8.6 million for the second quarter of 2019. U.S. laser revenue was $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2020, a 72% decrease compared to U.S. laser revenue of $2.9 million for the second quarter of 2019. U.S. consumables and other revenue for the second quarter of 2020, which consists of revenue from consumable products such as disposable tips, decreased 68% compared to the second quarter of 2019. Outside the U.S., laser revenue declined 86% to $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2019 and consumables and other revenue decreased 39% year over year.

Gross margin for the second quarter of 2020 was 32%, compared to 39% for the second quarter of 2019. The lower gross margin reflects the impact of the decline in revenues relative to our fixed costs. Total operating expenses were $4.9 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of approximately 27%. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2020, was $4.0 million, compared to an operating loss of $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of 19% year over year. Net loss for the second quarter of 2020 was $4.7 million, or $0.12 per share, compared to a net loss of $3.9 million, or $0.18 per share, for the second quarter of 2019.

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash totaled $5.7 million as of June 30, 2020 and included proceeds from the registered direct private placement completed in June.

On July 22, 2020, the Company completed its previously announced rights offering, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $15.8 million, after deducting expenses and fees, and excluding any proceeds received upon exercise of any warrants.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), this press release includes certain historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that, in some respects, these non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of the Company’s ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents. In 2019, the Company revised its non-GAAP financial measures to include the change in allowance for doubtful accounts in an effort to better align its Adjusted EBITDA with its loan covenants and how management evaluates business performance.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of patent litigation settlement liability, and allowance for doubtful accounts. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of the Company’s core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Therefore, 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. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
