I am encouraged by the continued enthusiasm we are seeing across our end markets for real-time analysis at the point-of-need,” said Kevin J.

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenue was $11.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a 34% increase over the prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by product revenue from an increase in both handheld and desktop devices. Desktop revenue grew 39% year over year because of both increased device sales and increased recurring revenue.

The installed base grew to 2,142 placements with 124 devices placed in Q2 2022.

Gross profit was $6.6 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $4.4 million for the corresponding prior year period. Gross margin was 60%, as compared to 53% for the corresponding prior year period. The increase in gross margin was expected based upon the increased product revenue and volume leverage, offset in part by planned investments in personnel and expenses in calendar year 2021 and the first six months of 2022.

Operating expenses were $15.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $11.8 million for the corresponding prior year period. This increase was driven by headcount expansion across our business, an increase in stock-based compensation and an increase in marketing activities and travel expenses, offset in part by the $1.7 million provision to increase our allowance for bad debts during the second quarter of 2021.

Net loss was $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $7.4 million for the corresponding prior year period. Net loss per share was $0.26 for the second quarter of 2022, compared to a net loss per share of $0.27 for the corresponding prior year period.

Cash and cash equivalents were $213.0 million as of June 30, 2022. In addition, the Company had approximately $15.0 million of debt outstanding.

2022 Guidance

908 Devices continues to expect full year 2022 revenue to be in the range of $52 million to $55 million, representing 23% to 30% growth over full year 2021.
