  • Revenue of $26.4 million for the first half of 2023, representing growth of 42% over the same period of 2022;

"We are pleased to report another quarter of sequential growth for TELA, driven by increased momentum in the sales organization and improving macroeconomic conditions for elective procedure volumes,” said Antony Koblish, co-founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of TELA Bio. “In the first half of 2023, we grew our top line, increased market share, and launched innovative products and product enhancements to address the varying needs of surgeons and patients in an expanding soft tissue market.

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Revenue was $14.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 39% compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was due to the expansion of our commercial organization, the addition of new customers, increased penetration within existing customer accounts, and growing international sales.

Gross profit was $10.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, or 70% of revenue, compared to $6.6 million, or 63% of revenue, in the same period in 2022. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to better inventory management practices resulting in a decrease in the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory as a percentage of revenue as compared to the prior year period.

Operating expenses were $20.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $16.8 million in the same period in 2022. The increase was due to higher compensation and employee-related expenses from additional headcount as we continue to expand our organization, along with increased travel expenses, increased consulting fees and higher study costs.

Loss from operations was $10.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to a loss from operations of $10.2 million in the same period in 2022.

Net loss was $10.8 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to a net loss of $12.7. million in the same period in 2022.

Cash and cash equivalents on June 30, 2023 totaled $65.3 million following a public offering which raised approximately $46.4 million dollars after commissions and expenses.

2023 Financial Guidance

We continue to expect full year 2023 revenue to range from $60.0 million to $65.0 million, reflecting growth of 45% to 57% over full year 2022.
