Financial Highlights

  • Second quarter 2024 net revenues of $8.4 million, a 22% increase over the prior year with record-high quarterly revenues

  • Ending cash balance of $10.5 million and quarterly cash usage of $0.3 million driven by improved net income, increased operating leverage, and working capital improvements
  • Raising full year 2024 revenue guidance to $32.0-$32.5 million, representing year-over-year growth of 12-14%; raising full year gross margin guidance to 61-62%

Business Highlights

“We delivered a great quarter, highlighted by strong double-digit growth, progress in our Novel Therapies pipeline and increased operating leverage,” said Linda Tharby, KORU Medical’s President and CEO. “Our US Core business continues to capture share gains in a growing SCIg market. Internationally, we are increasing penetration and expanding in new geographies. We also continue to progress our Novel Therapies pipeline collaborations with a clear line of sight to multiple commercial launches over the next several years. We have accomplished this while also delivering on gross margin expansion and operating leverage. I’m proud of the KORU team and, as a result of our strong performance in the first half of 2024 and our confidence in continued execution moving forward, we are raising our full year 2024 revenue and gross margin guidance.”

Total net revenues increased $1.5 million, or 21.5%, to $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared with the same period in 2023. Domestic Core revenues increased by 14.3% to $6.2 million, primarily due to higher consumable and pump volumes driven by new patients starts and share gains. International Core revenues increased by 45.8% to $1.6 million, primarily due to higher consumable and pump volumes driven largely by increased Ig supply, increased penetration within certain approved indications, and geographic expansion. International orders were expedited for certain distribution partners of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2024 related to the BSI regulatory review process which has since been successfully appealed. Novel Therapies net revenues increased by 49.9% to $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by Phase III clinical trial orders and milestone completion from our collaboration agreements.

Gross profit increased $1.6 million, or 41%, to $5.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $3.9 million in the same period in 2023. Gross margin increased to 65.0% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 56.1% in the second quarter of 2023. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by increased production efficiencies, favorable sales mix driven by clinical trial orders, and increased average selling prices when compared to the prior year period. We also had a positive inventory valuation adjustment of $0.1 million during the second quarter of 2024 which is not expected to recur in 2024.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $6.7 million, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 6.2%, compared to $7.1 million in the prior year period driven primarily by a decrease of $0.5 million in research and development expenses primarily due to timing of project spend.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.0 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $2.5 million, or ($0.05) per diluted share, for the same period of 2023, primarily driven by an increase in gross profit of $1.6 million and an interest income of $0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in tax benefit of $0.6 million and in operating expenses of $0.4 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024 was ($0.4) million, or ($0.01) per diluted share, compared to adjusted EBITDA of ($2.3) million, or ($0.04) per diluted share, for the same period of 2023. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted EPS is provided at the end of this press release.

Cash and cash equivalents were $10.5 million as of June 30, 2024, reflecting cash usage of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2024.

2024 Guidance

  • Raising full year 2024 net revenue guidance to $32.0 - $32.5, representing growth of 12-14%; increased from previously issued guidance of $31.2 - $32.2 million, or 10% to 13%
  • Raising full year 2024 gross margin guidance to 61% - 62%; increased from previously issued guidance of 59% - 61%
  • Reaffirming guidance of 2024 year-end cash balance greater than $8.0 million and achieving cash flow breakeven in the fourth quarter of 2024 and cash flow positive for full year 2025

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted diluted EPS” and “adjusted EBITDA” that are not in accordance with, nor an alternate to, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material effect on KORU Medical’s reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate the Company’s financial results. Non-GAAP financial measures are meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, GAAP financial results. Reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP measures are included at the end of this press release.

Allowance for nonrealization of deferred tax assets (DTA). We have excluded the effect of recording a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets in the second quarter ended 2024 in the amount of $0.2 million. It was determined that no valuation allowance was necessary in the second quarter ended 2023.

Reorganization Charges. We have excluded the effect of reorganization charges in calculating our non-GAAP measures. In 2024 we incurred severance expenses related to the reorganization of the leadership team, which we would not have otherwise incurred in periods presented as part of continuing operations.

Stock-based Compensation Expense. We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense in calculating our non-GAAP measures. We record non-cash compensation expenses related to grants of equity-based awards for executives, employees, consultants, and directors. Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of the grants, the non-cash compensation expense may vary significantly but is expected to recur in future periods.
