May 08, 2024 | Last Trade: US$3.64 0.15 -3.96
  • Q1 GAAP EPS of $(0.05); Q1 Non-GAAP EPS of $0.04
  • Restructuring initiatives expected to result in $15 million of annualized expense reductions once fully implemented and position OraSure to achieve cash flow breakeven for core business by end of 2024
  • Delivered initial orders for Syphilis Health Check™ as part of our distribution agreement with Diagnostics Direct

BETHLEHEM, Pa., May 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OraSure Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSUR), a leader in point-of-care and home diagnostic tests and sample management solutions, today announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

“Our Q1 results were consistent with our expectations, and our transformation continues with three recent important initiatives to further streamline the business and focus on our strengths. We are winding down our microbiome laboratory and analytical sequencing services business, insourcing third-party manufacturing activities into our Bethlehem facilities, and closing our site in Belgium. These actions are expected to result in meaningful cost savings this year and contribute to achieving our target to break-even in cash flow from operations for our core business by the end of 2024,” said OraSure President and CEO Carrie Eglinton Manner.

She continued, “Over the last 18 months, we have strengthened the foundation of our organization, and we are excited to help power the potential of precision health. Our stronger balance sheet provides us the flexibility to invest in our innovation roadmap, including current partnerships and inorganic opportunities that leverage our existing capabilities, and positions OraSure to accelerate profitable long-term growth.”

NM – not meaningful

  • Total net revenues for the first quarter of 2024 decreased 65% to $54.1 million from $155.0 million in the first quarter of 2023.
  • Core revenue (all revenue excluding COVID-19 revenue) of $31.0 million in the first quarter decreased 15% year-over-year. Diagnostics revenue in the first quarter decreased 4% year-over-year and Molecular Sample Management Solutions revenue decreased 16%.
  • COVID-19 revenue of $23.1 million in the first quarter decreased 80% year-over-year, which was in line with our expectations as volumes under our government contracts taper down.
  • GAAP gross margin percentage was 44.5% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to 42.5% in the first quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP gross margin in the first quarter of 2024 was 45.2% compared to 42.8% in the first quarter of 20231. On a year-over-year basis, gross margin benefited from increased average selling price on InteliSwab® and lower manufacturing scrap expense.
  • GAAP operating loss in the first quarter of 2024 was $7.1 million compared to operating income of $24.3 million in the first quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP operating loss was $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to Non-GAAP operating income of $32.7 million in the first quarter of 2023.
  • Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments were $263.8 million as of March 31, 2024. The $26.6 million decrease in our cash balance during the first quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by our $28.3 million investment in Sapphiros, a next-generation consumer diagnostics company, which we announced in January. Cash Flow from Operations in the first quarter of 2024 was $6.7 million.

Recent Business Developments

  • During the second quarter, we initiated steps to wind down and exit our microbiome laboratory and analytical sequencing services business (Diversigen) by the end of Q3 2024. This action is expected to result in more than $10 million of annualized cost savings upon completion. Diversigen generated $4 million of revenue over the last 12 months. OraSure will continue to produce and sell microbiome collection kits as part of our Sample Management Solutions.
  • Commenced projects to insource production of certain sample management products from external contract manufacturers into our manufacturing Center of Excellence in Bethlehem, PA over the next 18 months. Upon completion, this transition is expected to result in $5 million of annualized cost savings through improved operating efficiency and further leveraging of our existing infrastructure.
  • Initiated steps to close our Novosanis site in Belgium by the end of 2024 in order to drive further integration into our existing infrastructure. OraSure will continue to develop and sell the Colli-Pee® urine collection device as part of our Sample Management Solutions.
  • Successfully launched our sales and distribution partnerships with Diagnostics Direct and Anaerobe Systems, among others, which allow us to enter new market segments and expand the portfolio of products we can provide to our customers.
  • Remain on track to achieve operating cash flow break-even for the core business by the end of 2024.
  • Published our 2023-2024 “OraSure Cares” ESG report, which highlights our progress in advancing Environmental, Social, and Governance-related initiatives that are meaningful to our internal and external stakeholders.

Financial Guidance

The Company is guiding to Q2 2024 revenue of $50 to $55 million, which includes core revenue of $33 to $36 million and InteliSwab® revenue of $17 to $19 million. Our Q2 2024 guidance includes approximately $650 thousand of revenue from the Diversigen business that we plan to exit.

About InteliSwab®

OraSure has received Emergency Use Authorizations (EUA) from the FDA for its InteliSwab® COVID-19 rapid tests. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has authorized the InteliSwab® COVID-19 Rapid Test for Over-the-Counter (OTC) use without a prescription. The FDA has also authorized the InteliSwab® COVID-19 Rapid Test Pro for professional use in point of care (POC) CLIA-waived settings, and the InteliSwab® COVID-19 Rapid Test Rx for Prescription Home Use. These remarkably simple COVID-19 lateral flow tests use samples self-collected from the lower nostrils. The InteliSwab® test’s unique design incorporates a built-in swab fully integrated into the test stick. After users swab their lower nostrils, the test stick is swirled in a pre-measured buffer solution, and the result appears right on the test stick within 30 minutes, with no instruments, batteries, smartphone or laboratory analysis needed to see the result. With less than one minute of “hands-on time,” it is as simple as “Swab, Swirl, and See.”

This product has not been FDA cleared or approved, but it has been authorized by the FDA under an EUA. The emergency use of this product has been authorized only for the detection of proteins from SARS-CoV-2, not for any other viruses or pathogens. This product is only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of in vitro diagnostics for detection and/or diagnosis of COVID-19 under Section 564(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb- 3(b)(1), unless the declaration is terminated or authorization is revoked sooner.

Development of the InteliSwab® COVID-19 Rapid Test has been funded in whole or in part with federal funds from the Department of Health and Human Services; Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response; Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, under contract numbers 75A50120C00061 and 75A50121C00078, utilizing Health Care Enhancement Act (HCEA) funding. The DoD's Defense Assisted Acquisition (DA2) Cell led the manufacturing expansion effort for the InteliSwab® COVID-19 rapid test in coordination with the Department of the Air Force’s Acquisition COVID-19 Task Force (DAF ACT). The manufacturing effort was funded through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to enable and support domestic industrial base expansion for critical medical resources.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, the Company’s financial results and financial guidance are provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss), and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share. Management believes that presentation of operating results using these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company’s core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods, while excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of the Company’s recurring core business operating results. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because they (1) allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) are used by OraSure’s institutional investors and the analysis community to help them analyze the health of OraSure’s business. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures to establish budgets and to manage the Company’s business. A reconciliation of the GAAP financial results to non-GAAP financial results is included in the schedules below and a description of the adjustments made to the GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the schedules.

The Company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Non-GAAP financial results are reported in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further, non-GAAP financial measures, even if similarly titled, may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, and therefore should not be compared.
