Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Revenue was $223.7 million for the third quarter of 2021,
compared to $137.4 million for the prior quarter and $4.7 million
for the prior year. The increase over the prior quarter was made
possible by growth in both the public and private sector.
Public Sector revenue was $129.5 million, compared to $105.0
million for the prior quarter. The increase over the prior quarter
was driven by additional deliveries to DOD / HHS under the existing
agreement.
Private Sector revenue was $94.2 million, compared to $32.4
million for the prior quarter. The increase over the prior quarter
was driven by significant additions to the enterprise and provider
customer base.
Disposable test cartridge revenue was $179.0 million for the
third quarter of 2021, up 74% from the prior quarter.
Product gross margin was 60.2% for the third quarter of 2021, up
from 59.9% in the prior quarter due to the increase in production
partially offset by higher labor and material costs.
Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2021 were $47.7
million, compared to $17.6 million for the third quarter of 2021.
The increase was driven by growth in our overall organization
including Sales and Marketing, R&D, and G&A and includes a
one-time equity expense of $12.9 million.
Net income was $19.3 million for the third quarter of 2021
compared to $19.8 million in the second quarter. Earnings per
diluted share was $0.13 for the third quarter of 2021 compared to
$0.14 in the second quarter.
Cash and cash equivalents were $446.6 million as of September
30, 2021.
