Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenue was

$143.5 million

for the three months ended December 31, 2021, a 28% increase from

$112.2 million

for the three months ended December 31, 2020. This increase was primarily the result of increased consumables revenue driven by growth in our cumulative instruments sold.

Gross margin was 81% for the fourth quarter of 2021, as compared to 83% for the corresponding prior year period. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to the impact of shifting product mix, partially offset by decreased costs related to ramping our second manufacturing facility.

Operating expenses were

$131.8 million

for the fourth quarter of 2021, a 74% decrease from

$502.9 million

for the three months ended December 31, 2020. This decrease was driven by lower in-process research and development expense in the  quarter due to the

$406.9 million

charge during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 related to the acquisition of ReadCoor and decreased legal expenses. This decrease was partially offset by increased operating expenses related to higher personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation, increased expenses related to equipment, facilities and technology and increased marketing expenses.

Operating loss was

$15.8 million

for the fourth quarter of 2021, as compared to an operating loss of

$409.6 million

for the corresponding prior year period which included

$406.9 million

of in-process research and development expense related to the acquisition of ReadCoor. Operating loss also includes

$26.9 million

of stock-based compensation for the fourth quarter of 2021, as compared to

$14.3 million

for the fourth quarter of 2020.

Net loss was

$18.4 million

for the fourth quarter of 2021, as compared to a net loss of

Full Year 2021 Financial Results

Revenue was

$490.5 million

for the year ended December 31, 2021, a 64% increase from

$298.8 million

for 2020.

Gross margin was 85% for full year 2021, as compared to 80% for 2020. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower accrued royalties related to the Bio-Rad agreement, including a one-time reversal of

$14.7 million

of previously accrued royalties, and decreased costs related to ramping our second manufacturing facility during the period, partially offset by the impact of shifting product mix.

Operating expenses were

$468.7 million

for full year 2021, as compared to

$774.5 million

for 2020, a decrease of 39%. Operating expenses in 2020 included

of in-process research and development expense related to the acquisitions of CartaNA and ReadCoor.

for full year 2021, as compared to an operating loss of
