PONTE VEDRA, Fla., May 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (“Treace” or the “Company”) (NasdaqGS: TMCI), a medical technology company driving a fundamental shift in the surgical treatment of hallux valgus (commonly known as bunions), today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

- Revenue of $42.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, a 45% increase over the same period last year.
- Blended average revenue per Lapiplasty® procedure kit sold was $6,244, a 13% increase over the same period last year and a 6% increase sequentially.

- New interim data1 from ALIGN3D™ clinical study highlighted at the 2023 American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons (ACFAS) Annual Scientific Conference demonstrating 97.3% patient satisfaction rating at 36 months (n=37), with 92% and 90% improvement in walking/standing and social interaction scores, respectively, through 36 months (n=41); an 80.8% decrease in pain at 24 months (n=128); and a low recurrence rate of 0.9% (1 out of 114 patients) observed at 24 months post-surgery2.

“First quarter revenue grew 45% with steady execution of our growth strategies and gains across our key operating metrics,” said John T. Treace, CEO, Founder and Board Member of Treace. “With increasing strategic investments into our direct sales channel, R&D initiatives, and direct-to-consumer programs, we continue to drive strong revenue growth and expand our market penetration. These proven commercial programs coupled with our differentiated technologies well-position us to advance our mission to improve surgical outcomes for bunion patients.”
First Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenue for the first quarter of 2023 was $42.2 million, representing an increase of 45% compared to $29.0 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was driven by an increased number of Lapiplasty® procedure kits sold as a result of an expanded surgeon customer base and increased blended average selling prices due to increased adoption of our newer technologies and expanding product line.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2023 was $34.2 million, representing an increase of 43% compared to a gross profit of $23.9 million in the first quarter of 2022. Gross margin totaled 80.9% in the first quarter of 2023, compared to 82.3% in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in payroll costs and an increase in inventory and obsolescence provisions.
Total operating expenses were $47.9 million in the first quarter of 2023, including sales and marketing (S&M) expenses of $33.7 million, research and development (R&D) expenses of $3.4 million, and general and administrative (G&A) expenses of $10.9 million. This compared to total operating expenses of $32.0 million, including S&M expenses of $22.3 million, R&D expenses of $3.1 million, and G&A expenses of $6.7 million in the first quarter of 2022. Increased operating expenses in the first quarter of 2023 reflect increased investments in our commercial initiatives as well as other G&A investments supporting our growing business.
First quarter net loss attributable to common stockholders was ($13.5) million, or ($0.23) per share, compared to a net loss of ($9.0) million, or ($0.16) per share, for the same period of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of ($10.0) million in the first quarter, compared to a loss of ($6.4) million for the same period in 2022. See below for additional information and a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information.
Financial Outlook
Treace is raising its full year 2023 revenue guidance to $190 million to $196 million, which represents approximately 34% to 38% growth over the Company’s 2022 revenue. This compares to the prior revenue guidance of $187 million to $193 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this earnings release presents Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net loss before depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, interest income, interest expense, and taxes. As of March 31, 2023, in its calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, the Company is subtracting interest income from net loss as interest income is more significant this quarter and is expected to be significant for the full year 2023. Prior period results for Adjusted EBITDA have been updated to be consistent with the current quarter’s presentation. Non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA are presented in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and trends, as well as for making planning decisions. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in the Company’s business that may otherwise be masked by the effect of the income and expenses and other items that it excludes in its calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, the Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by the Company’s management in their financial and operational decision-making. The Company also presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes investors, analysts and rating agencies consider them to be a useful metrics in measuring the Company’s performance against other companies and its ability to meet its debt service obligations.
There are limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may exclude significant income and expenses required by GAAP to be recognized in the Company’s financial statements, and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. 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. Reconciliations between GAAP and non‐GAAP results are presented below.
