AtriCure, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATRC), a leading innovator in surgical
treatments and therapies for atrial fibrillation (Afib), left
atrial appendage (LAA) management and post-operative pain
management, today announced third quarter 2024 financial
results.
“Our broad-based growth in the third quarter reflects strong,
ongoing adoption trends throughout our business,” said Michael
Carrel, President and Chief Executive Officer at AtriCure. “During
the quarter, we launched several new products in the United States
and Europe, leading to an acceleration in growth along with
continued improvement in profitability and positive cash flow
generation. Our results are a testament to our commitment to expand
access to our innovative solutions for patients and providers
worldwide.”
Third Quarter 2024 Financial
Results
Revenue for the third quarter 2024 was $115.9 million, an
increase of 17.9% over third quarter 2023 revenue (17.8% on a
constant currency basis), reflecting continued adoption of our
products by physicians globally for the treatment of patients with
Afib, LAA management and post-operative pain management. On a
sequential basis, worldwide revenue for the third quarter 2024
decreased approximately 0.3% from the second quarter 2024 due to
normal seasonality of procedures in summer months.
U.S. revenue was $95.5 million, an increase of $13.8 million or
16.8%, compared to the third quarter 2023. U.S. revenue growth was
driven by sales across key product lines, including the ENCOMPASS®
clamp in open ablation, AtriClip® Flex·V® device in appendage
management and cryoSPHERE® probes for post-operative pain
management. International revenue increased $3.9 million or 23.3%
(22.4% on a constant currency basis) to $20.5 million, realizing
significant growth across all franchises in Europe and most of our
other major geographic regions.
Gross profit for the third quarter 2024 was $86.8 million
compared to $73.9 million for the third quarter 2023. Gross margin
was 74.9% for the third quarter 2024, a decrease of 27 basis points
from the third quarter 2023, reflecting less favorable geographic
and product mix. Loss from operations for the third quarter 2024
was $7.4 million, compared to $8.1 million for the third quarter
2023. Basic and diluted net loss per share was $0.17 for the third
quarter 2024, compared to $0.20 for the third quarter 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2024 is $7.9 million, an
increase of $3.2 million from third quarter of 2023. Adjusted loss
per share for the third quarter 2024 was $0.17, compared to $0.20
for the third quarter 2023.
Constant currency revenue, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted loss per
share are non-GAAP financial measures. We discuss these non-GAAP
financial measures and provide reconciliations to GAAP measures
later in this release.
2024 Financial Guidance
AtriCure now expects full year 2024 revenue of approximately
$459 million to $462 million, reflecting growth of approximately
15% to 16%. Management continues to expect full year 2024 Adjusted
EBITDA of approximately $26 million to $29 million, with
improvements annually thereafter. Projected full year 2024 adjusted
EBITDA represents a 34% to 49% increase over full year 2023. Full
year 2024 adjusted loss per share is expected to be in the range of
$0.74 to $0.80.

Forward-Looking
Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements”– that
is, statements related to future events that by their nature
address matters that are uncertain. This press release also
includes forward-looking projected financial information that is
based on current estimates and forecasts. Actual results could
differ materially. For details on the uncertainties that may cause
our actual results to be materially different than those expressed
in our forward-looking statements, visit
http://www.atricure.com/forward-looking-statements as well as our
Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q
which contain risk factors. Except where otherwise noted, the
information contained in this release is as of October 29, 2024. We

events or developments, except as may be required by law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
To supplement AtriCure’s condensed consolidated financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP,
AtriCure provides certain non-GAAP financial measures in this
release as supplemental financial metrics.
Revenue reported on a constant currency basis is a non-GAAP
measure, calculated by applying previous period foreign currency
exchange rates to each of the comparable periods. Management
analyzes revenue on a constant currency basis to better measure the
comparability of results between periods. Because changes in
foreign currency exchange rates have a non-operating impact on
revenue, the Company believes that evaluating growth in revenue on
a constant currency basis provides an additional and meaningful
assessment of revenue to both management and investors.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before other
income/expense (including interest), income tax expense,
depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation
expense, acquisition costs, legal settlement costs, impairment of
intangible assets and change in fair value of contingent
consideration liabilities. Management believes in order to properly
understand short-term and long-term financial trends, investors may
wish to consider the impact of these excluded items in addition to
GAAP measures. The excluded items vary in frequency and/or impact
on our continuing results of operations and management believes
that the excluded items are typically not reflective of our ongoing
core business operations and financial condition. Further,
management uses adjusted EBITDA for both strategic and annual
operating planning. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA reported in
this release to the most comparable GAAP measure for the respective
periods appears in the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP
Adjusted Income (Adjusted EBITDA)” later in this release.
Adjusted loss per share is a non-GAAP measure which calculates
the net loss per share before non-cash adjustments in fair value of
contingent consideration liabilities, impairment of intangible
assets, debt extinguishment and legal settlements. A reconciliation
of adjusted loss per share reported in this release to the most
comparable GAAP measure for the respective periods appears in the
table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Loss Per
Share” later in this release.
The non-GAAP financial measures used by AtriCure may not be the
same or calculated in the same manner as those used and calculated
by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as
analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for AtriCure’s financial results prepared and reported
in accordance with GAAP. We urge investors to review the
reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the
comparable GAAP financials measures included in this press release,
and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our
business.
