Establishment Labs Reports Record First Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ESTA), a global medical technology company dedicated to improving women’s health and wellness, principally in breast aesthetics and reconstruction, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
First Quarter Highlights and Outlook
- First quarter worldwide revenue of $46.5 million increased 21.0% year-over-year and was a new quarterly record; excluding the impact of foreign currency changes, revenue growth in the first quarter would have been 22.9%.
- 2023 revenue guidance remains $200 million to $210 million, an increase of 24% to 30% over 2022.
- First quarter loss from operations was $8.2 million compared to a loss of $5.6 million in the year-ago period as investment in growth initiatives increased.
- Cash balance of $42.8 million as of March 31, 2023.
- Completed follow-on share offering on April 27, with gross proceeds of $90.4 million.
- Presented 3-year results from Motiva® U.S. IDE study at The Aesthetic Meeting on April 20.
- Mia Femtech™ launched in Japan on April 10.
- Announced three-million Motiva® devices are in market on March 29.
“Reporting a record revenue quarter reflects the significant progress we are making at Establishment Labs,” said Juan José Chacón-Quirós, Chief Executive Officer. “In April, we launched the Mia Femtech experience in Japan, the first country in the global rollout of this new category in breast aesthetics. We also noted the presentation of the three-year results of the Motiva US IDE study by Dr. Caroline Glicksman at the Aesthetic Meeting in Miami. The results were particularly encouraging as the very low rates of capsular contracture and rupture seen at year two did not increase in year three. Finally, we fortified our balance sheet with a follow-on share offering on April 27; the gross proceeds of $90.4 million along with the capital we currently have will allow us to take complete advantage of our leading science, technology, and clinical evidence in this industry.”
“The next several months are expected to be just as eventful,” Mr. Chacón-Quirós continued. “We have entered into a strategic partnership with Clinique des Champs Elysées to offer the Mia Femtech experience at all of their locations in France — adding to the already announced clinic partners in Europe. Our plans for launch of Motiva in China continue to advance and our PMA has been accepted by the U.S. FDA and is under review. Our new Sulàyöm campus will begin operation later this year, doubling our manufacturing capacity while adding new capabilities in R, medical education, and media. We are making progress every day toward our goal of rebuilding the breast aesthetic and reconstruction markets through our commitment to women’s health and wellbeing.”
First Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Total revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 was $46.5 million compared to $38.5 million for the same period in 2022. Direct sales comprised approximately 36% of total sales, while distributor sales made up the balance.
Gross profit for the first quarter was $30.1 million, or 64.7% of revenue, compared to $24.9 million, or 64.8% of revenue, for the same period in 2022.
Total operating expenses for the first quarter were $38.2 million, an increase of $7.7 million compared to $30.5 million in the first quarter of 2022.
SG expenses for the first quarter increased approximately $4.8 million to $31.7 million compared to $26.9 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase in SG was primarily due to costs associated with increased revenues and expanding operations.
R expenses increased approximately $2.9 million to $6.5 million in the first quarter compared to $3.6 million for the same quarter a year ago. The increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel, compliance and regulatory costs.
Net loss for the first quarter was $11.9 million compared to a net loss of $5.9 million in the year ago period.
The Company’s cash balance on March 31, 2023 was $42.8 million. Cash decreased $23.5 million from December 31, 2022, primarily as a result of operating losses, increases in inventory and accounts receivable, and investments in new facility construction.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we have disclosed in this press release constant currency sales (or revenue) information, which is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of foreign exchange currency fluctuations. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates impact the sales growth rates of our underlying business. Management believes that excluding the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations from its sales growth provides investors a more useful comparison to historical financial results. In order to remove the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, we calculate constant currency revenue, which represents the outcome that would have resulted had exchange rates in the current period been the same as those in effect in the comparable prior period. Management believes that providing investors with this non-GAAP measure gives them additional information to enable them to assess, in the same way management assesses, the Company's current and future continuing operations. This non-GAAP measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “intends to,” “would,” “will,” “may” or other similar expressions in this press release. Any statements that refer to projections of our future financial or operating performance, anticipated trends in our business, our goals, strategies, focus and plans, including related product development and commercialization and regulatory approvals, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including statements expressing general optimism about future operating results, related to the company’s performance are forward-looking statements. We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this report, or that we may make orally or in writing from time to time, are expressions of our beliefs and expectations based on currently available information at the time such statements are made. Such statements are based on assumptions, and the actual outcome will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and factors that are beyond our control. Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future performance, and some will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a result, our actual future results and the timing of events may differ from our expectations, and those differences may be material. Factors, among others, that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those described in any forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties relating to: our ability to successfully, timely and cost-effectively develop, seek and obtain regulatory clearance for and commercialize our product offerings; the rate of adoption of our products by healthcare providers or other customers; the success of our marketing initiatives; the safe and effective use of our products; our ability to protect our intellectual property; our future expansion plans and capital allocation; our ability to expand upon and/or secure sources of credit or capital; our ability to develop and maintain relationships with qualified suppliers to avoid a significant interruption in our supply chains; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our ability to scale our operations to meet market demands; the effect on our business of existing and new regulatory requirements; and other economic and competitive factors. These and other factors that could cause or contribute to actual results differing materially from our expectations include, among others, those risks and uncertainties discussed in the company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed on March 1, 2023 and will be discussed in the company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q that will be filed on May 10, 2023, which risks and uncertainties may be updated in the future in other filings made by the company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The risks included in those documents are not exhaustive, and additional factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We are not undertaking any obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on known results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
