Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2024
Financial Results and Updates 2024 Outlook

Inspire Reports Year-over-Year
Revenue Growth of 28% in the First Quarter and Expects Profitability for the Full Year 2024

MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota - May 7, 2024 - Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (NYSE: INSP) (Inspire), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative, minimally invasive solutions for patients with obstructive sleep apnea, today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Recent Business Highlights
Generated revenue of $164.0 million in the first quarter of 2024, a 28% increase over the same quarter last year
Achieved gross margin of 84.9% in the first quarter of 2024
Activated 66 new U.S. centers in the first quarter of 2024, bringing the total to 1,246 U.S. medical centers providing Inspire therapy
Created 11 new U.S. sales territories in the first quarter of 2024, bringing the total to 298 U.S. sales territories

"We are pleased with our strong performance in the first quarter, growing revenue 28% year-over-year. Our revenue growth was again driven by increased market penetration in existing centers, expansion into new territories, and increased physician and patient awareness of our Inspire therapy," said Tim Herbert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Inspire Medical Systems. "Given our strong performance in the quarter and our improved outlook for the remainder of 2024, we are increasing our revenue guidance and we now expect to be profitable for the full year 2024.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Revenue was $164.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a 28% increase from $127.9 million in the corresponding period in the prior year. U.S. revenue for the quarter was $155.8 million, an increase of 25% as compared to the prior year quarter. First quarter revenue outside the U.S. was $8.2 million, an increase of 141% as compared to the first quarter of 2023.

Gross margin was 84.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 84.4% for the corresponding prior year period.

Operating expenses increased to $154.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, as compared to $127.5 million in the corresponding prior year period, an increase of 21%. This increase primarily reflected ongoing investments in the expansion of the U.S. sales organization, direct-to-patient marketing programs, continued product development efforts, as well as increased general corporate costs.

Net loss was $10.0 million for the first quarter of 2024, as compared to $15.4 million in the corresponding prior year period. The net loss per share for the first quarter of 2024 was $0.34 per share, as compared to $0.53 in the prior year period.

As of March 31, 2024, cash, cash equivalents, and investments decreased to $469.2 million from $469.5 million on December 31, 2023.




Full Year 2024 Guidance

Inspire is increasing its full year 2024 revenue guidance to between $783 million to $793 million, which represents growth of 25% to 27% over full year 2023 revenue of $624.8 million. This compares to the prior revenue guidance of $775 million to $785 million.

The Company is maintaining its full year 2024 gross margin guidance of 83% to 85%.

Inspire is initiating first-time diluted net income per share guidance for the full year 2024 of between $0.10 to $0.20 per share.
