“Olink’s second quarter performance saw continued business momentum despite a challenging operating environment,” said Jon Heimer, CEO of Olink. “Our commitment to innovation is exemplified by the launch of Explore HT, which represents a major leap forward in our ability to serve high-plex proteomics customers, and significantly improves upon every major design feature of Explore 3072. With the launch of this highly anticipated product, Olink has further cemented its position as the market leader in proteomics, which drives continued confidence in the outlook for the year.”
Second quarter financial results
“While the timing of some customer orders impacted revenue late in the quarter, our results continued to support our targets for the year,” said Oskar Hjelm, CFO of Olink. "Through a disciplined strategy of focused investment, prudent asset allocation, and strong execution, Olink has laid a strong foundation for continued leadership and robust growth in the quarters and years ahead.”
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2023 was $29.4 million, as compared to $27.5 million for the second quarter of 2022, growing 7% year over year and driven primarily by strength in our kit business.
Second quarter 2023 kits revenue of $10.5 million represented 36% of our total revenue, compared to 26% for the second quarter of 2022; and grew 47% year over year, with both Explore Kits and Target Kits contributing to growth.
Analysis services revenue for the second quarter of 2023 was $15.5 million, as compared to $17.9 million for the second quarter of 2022.
Other revenue was $3.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $2.5 million for the second quarter of 2022. Other revenue growth was driven by Signature Q100 placements and other hardware revenue.
By geography, revenue during the second quarter of 2023 was $12.9 million in Americas, $11.9 million in EMEA (including Sweden), and $4.7 million in China and RoW (including Japan).
Reported gross profit was $17.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $17.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted gross profit was $18.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $17.9 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Reported gross profit margin for kits was 79% for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to 89% for the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted gross profit margin for kits was 81% for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to 91% for the second quarter of 2022.
Reported gross profit margin for analysis services was 52% as compared to 54% in the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted gross profit margin for analysis services was 56% for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to 58% in the second quarter of 2022.
Reported and adjusted gross profit margin for Other was 27% for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to 45% for the second quarter of 2022.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2023 were $36.3 million, as compared to $31.7 million for the second quarter of 2022. The increase was largely due to continued investment into Olink's commercial organization, research and development team expansion, and additional administrative costs.
Net loss was $(8.3) million for the second quarter of 2023 and adjusted EBITDA was $(11.6) million, as compared to a net loss of $(4.8) million and adjusted EBITDA of $(7.9) million for the second quarter of 2022.
Net loss per share for the second quarter of 2023 was $(0.07) based on a weighted average number of outstanding shares of 124,342,715 as compared to a net loss per share of $(0.04) in the second quarter of 2022 based on a weighted average number of outstanding shares of 119,101,120.
2023 guidance
Olink reiterates 2023 full year reported revenue guidance of $192 million to $200 million, representing growth of approximately 37% to 43% on a reported basis, and growth of approximately 38% to 44% on a constant currency basis.
The Company also expects revenues in 2023 will continue to progress along a seasonal pattern that is weighted toward the second half of the year, and fourth quarter specifically.

Statement regarding use of non IFRS financial measures
We present certain non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We believe that the use of these non-IFRS measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance. We caution readers that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted gross profit margin by segment, and constant currency revenue growth, may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies. Not all companies and Wall Street analysts calculate the non-IFRS measures we use in the same manner. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling each of these non-IFRS measures to the nearest IFRS performance measure, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
We are not able to forecast constant currency revenue on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting foreign currency exchange rates and, as a result, are unable to provide a reconciliation to forecasted constant currency revenue.

Reconciliation of constant currency revenue growth to revenue growth as reported under IFRS, the most directly comparable IFRS measure (unaudited):
We use the non-IFRS measure of constant currency growth, which we define as our total revenue growth from one fiscal year to the next on a constant currency exchange rate basis. We measure our constant currency revenue growth by applying the current fiscal period’s average exchange rate to the prior year fiscal period.
