FT. MYERS, Fla., Feb. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- NeoGenomics, Inc. (NEO), a leading provider of cancer-focused genetic testing services today reported its results for the fourth quarter and full year 2012.
Fiscal Year 2012 Highlights:
50% Test Volume Growth
38% Revenue Growth
181% Increase in Adjusted EBITDA
Net Income of $65K, or $0.00 per Share
Revenue for the full year 2012 was $59.9 million, a $16.4 million or 38% increase over 2011 revenue of $43.5 million on test volume growth of 50%. Average revenue-per-test decreased by 8% as a result of the expiration of the TC Grandfather Clause on June 30th, which resulted in the loss of approximately $2.6 million of revenue in the second half of the year. Despite this major regulatory change, gross margin improved slightly to 44.8% on a full-year basis from 44.7% in 2011. Total operating expenses increased by 29% from 2011, primarily as a result of a $1.7 million increase in R&D expenditures related to new test development, as well as increased personnel, depreciation and bad debt expense associated with the revenue growth. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses improved to 42.8% in 2012 from 45.6% in 2011. Net income for 2012 was $65,000 or $0.00 per share versus a net loss of $1.2 million or ($0.03) per share in 2011. Adjusted EBITDA for the year improved by $3.9 million or 181% to $6.0 million from $2.1 million in 2011.
Fourth Quarter 2012 Highlights:
35% Test Volume Growth
16% Revenue Growth
36% Increase in Adjusted EBITDA
Net Loss of $113K, or ($0.00) per Share
Revenue for the fourth quarter 2012 was $14.9 million, a $2.0 million or 16% increase over fourth quarter 2011 revenue on test volume growth of 35%. Gross profit increased to $6.5 million, a 10% increase from the fourth quarter 2011. Total operating expenses increased by $780,000 or 14% from last year's fourth quarter, primarily as a result of a $320,000 increase in R&D expenditures related to new test development and increased personnel and depreciation expense. Net loss for the quarter was ($113,000), or ($0.00) per share, versus net income of 152,000, or $0.00 per share in last year's fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA improved 36% to $1.4 million versus $1.1 million in the prior year.
Douglas M. VanOort, the Company's Chairman and CEO commented, "We are very proud of our full-year 2012 results. Our industry-leading 50% growth in test volume indicates that we are clearly winning market share. Although the TC Grandfather expiration reduced revenue by $2.6 million in the second half of the year, we were still able to increase revenue by $16 million or 38% versus 2011 with just 18 sales representatives. As importantly, productivity and process improvements allowed us to grow Adjusted EBITDA by 181% versus 2011, or almost five times the revenue growth rate, and post a modest profit for the year. Our team did a phenomenal job of delivering outstanding service, attracting new clients, reducing costs, and introducing important new tests. We believe we can continue to make progress in each of these important areas in 2013."
Mr. VanOort continued, "We are also proud of our 4th quarter results. We continued to make substantial improvements in lab productivity and operating efficiency in the quarter and came very close to returning to quarterly profitability. Lab productivity increased by 15% and Adjusted EBITDA grew by 36% from last year's fourth quarter. The improvements were also significant compared with Quarter 3, 2012 as we reduced our net loss by $800,000 with only a $700,000 increase in revenue."
Mr. VanOort concluded, "We are particularly proud of the level of innovation and new test development that we are accomplishing. In 2012, we introduced 29 new molecular tests, most of which use bi-directional Sanger sequencing, and built our molecular test menu to be one of the most comprehensive in the lab industry. We also launched 10-color flow cytometry and became the first lab in the country to offer this exciting new service on both a global and tech-only basis. In addition, we vastly improved our immunohistochemistry offering with dozens of new antibodies and brought up a new digital imaging platform. We also continued to expand our comprehensive FISH menu with several new test offerings including a promising new test to aid in the diagnosis of Barrett's Esophagus. We expect these new tests to drive substantial growth in 2013, and we expect that continued R&D investments will result in the commercialization of a number of new and innovative genetic tests."
