SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — iRhythm Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: IRTC), a leading digital health care solutions company focused on the advancement of cardiac care, today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

  • Revenue was $81.3 million, a 59.8% increase compared to second quarter 2020
  • Gross margin was 68.0%, a 1.6% decrease compared to second quarter 2020
  • Adjusted EBITDA (defined as EBITDA less stock compensation) was negative $4.6 million
  • Cash and Short-Term Investments were $255.7 million as of June 30, 2021, a $6.6 million decrease from March 31, 2021

“Our second quarter results reflected continued strong demand for our Zio platform, as well as solid execution on our operating goals. We were pleased to see growth in both total revenues and unit volumes in the quarter, with Zio AT surpassing 10% of our total revenue for the first time,” said Doug Devine, iRhythm Interim CEO and CFO. “We also made significant advancements to our technology platform in the second quarter with two new 510k clearances that demonstrate our continued commitment to innovation. We are pursuing many opportunities to leverage our technology platform to drive growth and value creation, including through new products such as Zio AT, new indications such as Silent AF, and international expansion. I remain incredibly excited about the future of iRhythm.”

Second Quarter Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 59.8% to $81.3 million, from $50.9 million during the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily driven by a mix of volume growth, improvements in collections performance with some contracted and non-contracted payors, and some favorable pricing adjustments for Zio AT.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2021 was $55.3 million, up from $35.4 million during the same period in 2020, while gross margins were 68.0%, down from 69.6% during the same period in 2020. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to a decrease in Zio XT Medicare reimbursement rates, higher overtime costs related to capacity shortfalls offset by volume benefits.

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 were $72.3 million, compared to $55.6 million for the same period in 2020. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increases in Stock Based Compensation and payroll offset by decrease in Verily milestone expense.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $17.4 million, or a loss of $0.59 per share, compared with net loss of $20.4 million, or a loss of $0.75 per share, for the same period in 2020.

Financial Guidance
For the full year 2021, the company expects revenue to range from $320 million to $325 million, representing year over year growth of 21% to 23%. Revenue guidance for the year does not assume any changes to Medicare reimbursement and as disclosed previously discussions with Novitas and the other Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) remain ongoing.
