  • Drove a 32% increase in surgical volume and a 22% increase in users compared to prior year, and hosted approximately 150 surgeons at training events;
  • Achieved operating cost leverage with adjusted EBITDA margin increasing approximately 870 basis points compared to prior year and approximately 290 basis points sequentially;
  • Closed $50 million revolving credit facility with $25 million accordion feature.

“We are executing on our innovation and financial commitments and I am confident we can continue to do so in the years ahead,” said Pat Miles, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “During the third quarter, ATEC’s Organic Innovation Machine introduced multiple outcome-improving approaches and technologies, which were enthusiastically received. It is increasingly clear: surgeons are buying in to our clinical thesis which will go well beyond lateral.”

Financial Outlook for the Full-Year 2022

The Company expects total revenue of $340 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, in line with the 40% full-year growth rate previewed in conjunction with the release of preliminary third quarter financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement the Company’s financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), the Company reports certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating loss, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with an additional tool for evaluating the Company's core performance, which management uses in its own evaluation of continuing operating performance, and a baseline for assessing the future earnings potential of the Company. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in the Company’s industry, as other companies in the industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. Non-GAAP financial results should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Included below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures.
