First Quarter Financial Results
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2023 increased 21% to $5.0 million, from $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to the placement of three Growth Direct® systems in the quarter compared to two system placements in the prior-year period. Recurring revenue, which consists of consumables and service contract revenue, increased 22% to $3.3 million in the first quarter, compared to $2.7 million in the first quarter last year. The Company completed the validation of two new customer systems in the first quarter of 2023 compared to nine in the prior-year period.
Total cost of revenue was $6.8 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $6.1 million in the first quarter of 2022, representing an increase of 12%. The increase was primarily due to both higher system and consumable volumes in the first quarter this year.
Total operating expenses were $13.1 million in the first quarter of 2023, essentially flat compared to the prior year.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2023 was $13.9 million, compared to $14.9 million in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to increased interest income. Net loss per share for the first quarter of 2023 was $0.32, compared to $0.35 in the first quarter of 2022.
Cash, cash equivalents and investments were $122.1 million, which the Company continues to expect to provide cash runway at least into 2026. The Company had no debt outstanding as of March 31, 2023.
Full Year 2023 Outlook
The Company is reaffirming its prior full year 2023 outlook for revenue of at least $22.0 million, representing growth of approximately 30%, and the placement of at least 15 systems.
