Current report

As previously described in the Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we have restated our previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of December 31, 2023 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. As a result, the previously reported financial information as of December 31, 2023 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 in this Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” has been updated to reflect the relevant restatement. Refer to Note 1 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information related to the restatement, including descriptions of the adjustments and the impacts on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Current report

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, product revenue increased by $13.7 million, or 9.7%, and $1.2 million, or 0.2%, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 2023. The increase in the three-month period is mainly due to the increase in revenue of $12.3 million from our filtration franchise. The increase in the nine-month period is primarily driven by growth in our filtration franchise of $27.5 million, offset by decreasing revenue in our Proteins and Chromatography franchises of $21.9 million and $6.6 million, respectively.

Current report

Cost of goods sold decreased $27.3 million, or 26.0%, and $34.7 million, or 13.1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same periods of 2023.

Current report

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred specific restructuring charges, including a $17.2 million inventory write-off to adjust inventory to net realizable value, a $3.8 million charge for accelerated depreciation on equipment related to manufacturing facilities to be closed and $3.0 million in severance and other charges, as a result of the restructuring activities, which commenced in July 2023, for a total of $24.0 million. See Note 5, “Restructuring Plan” for more information on the Restructuring Plan. Cost of goods decreased further due to less materials consumed in the production process and reduction in overhead costs as a direct result of the restructuring activities.

Current report

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, excluding the impact of the restructuring charges accounted for in the three months ended September 30, 2023, material and overhead costs decreased by $5.0 million and labor costs increased by $1.7 million, compared to the same period in 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, excluding the impact of the restructuring charges accounted for in the three months ended September 30, 2023, material and overhead costs and labor costs decreased by $10.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

Current report

Gross margin was 50.0% and 25.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and gross margin was 50.5% and 42.9% in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The primary driver of the margin improvement is the non-recurring restructuring charges incurred in the prior year, discussed earlier. In addition, we benefited from higher volume and year-over-year productivity, with some offset from inflation.

Current report

R&D expenses decreased $0.9 million, or 8.2%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period of 2023. The decrease is primarily due to the reduction in product development and R&D research services of $0.6 million.

Current report

R&D expenses decreased $0.9 million, or 2.8%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of 2023, due to the reduction in R&D research services of $1.6 million and laboratory and other R&D supplies of $1.2 million, offset by increased payroll and consulting costs of $1.5 million.

Current report

SG&A costs increased by $20.0 million, or 36.0%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and increased $41.9 million, or 26.1%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods of 2023.

Current report

Excluding the impact of the incremental stock compensation expense mentioned above, SG&A expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased by $2.6 million which is predominantly driven by increased incentive and commission expenses of $2.1 million and incremental intangible asset amortization of $1.0 million.

Current report

Excluding the impact of the incremental stock compensation expense mentioned above, SG&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased by $19.5 million which is predominantly driven by increased incentive and commission expenses of $9.8 million, incremental salary expense of $5.2 million and incremental intangible asset amortization of $3.2 million.

Current report

The remaining 2019 Notes matured and were paid off in full on July 15, 2024. As mentioned above, the Company used net proceeds from the Exchange Transaction to fund the repayment of the 2019 Notes at maturity and to pay accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such notes. The Company irrevocably elected to settle the conversion of the 2019 Notes using a combination of cash and the Company’s common stock, settling the par value of the 2019 Notes in cash and any excess conversion premium in shares. In connection with the conversion, the Company paid $69.6 million in cash, which included principal and accrued interest, and issued 100,942 shares of the Company’s common stock representing the conversion premium.

Previous report

We focus on selling our products directly to customers in the pharmaceutical industry and to our contract manufacturers. These direct sales represented approximately 88.4% and 84.7% of our product revenue for each of the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and represented 89.4% and 84.4% of our product revenue for each of the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Sales of our bioprocessing products can be impacted by the timing of large-scale production orders and the regulatory approvals for such antibodies, which may result in significant quarterly fluctuations.

Previous report

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, product revenue decreased by $5.1 million, or 3.2%, and $36.4 million, or 10.7%, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 2023. The decrease between the three and six-month periods is mainly due to a decrease in revenue from our proteins franchise due to weak demand, which reflects the Cytiva (a standalone operating company owned by Danaher Corporation) drop-off since they are producing product in-house and lower forecast for ligands from other customers. The decrease in revenue during the six-month periods also included a decrease in revenue from programs related to the COVID-19 pandemic as customers’ inventory has reduced at a slower pace than initially expected, which has primarily affected revenue from sales of our filtration products. Partially offsetting the decrease in revenue for the three and six month periods is an increase in revenue from the operations of acquisitions completed subsequent to the prior year comparable periods. In addition, the performance of our Alternating Tangential Filtration business, a part of our filtration franchise, was strong in the second quarter of 2024 as well as the first half of 2024 resulting in an increase in revenue during the three and six months ending June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods of 2023. Revenue from sales by the remaining franchises for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 remained relatively in line with similar revenue from the same periods of 2023.

Previous report

Cost of goods sold decreased $2.0 million, or 2.5%, and $7.4 million, or 4.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same periods of 2023, primarily due to a decrease in costs associated with lower revenue as well as a decrease in employee-related costs resulting from a decline in manufacturing headcount since June 30, 2023. Partially offsetting this was an increase in cost of goods sold that relates to the results of operations of FlexBiosys and Metenova, which have been in our consolidated results of operations since the acquisition dates in April 2023 and October 2023, respectively. There was also an increase in cost of goods sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods of 2023 due to $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of costs incurred in 2024 from restructuring activities, for which there were no comparable costs in the same periods of 2023.

Previous report

Gross margin was 49.8% and 50.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and gross margin was 49.7% and 52.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Lower margins were a result of lower overall sales and production volumes, and a change in product mix, where we saw a significant decline in revenue associated with higher-margin consumable products due to the decrease in COVID-19 vaccine demand.

Previous report

R&D expenses increased $0.9 million, or 9.0%, during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period of 2023. The increase is primarily due to an adjustment to decrease the bonus accrual recorded during the second quarter of 2023 for which there is no comparable amount recorded in the same period of 2024. The increase is also attributable to the operations of Metenova, which have been in our results of operations since the acquisition date in October 2023 and $0.3 million of costs from restructuring activities during the three months ended June 30, 2024, for which there were no comparable costs in the same period of 2023. Offsetting these increases were decreases in employee-related costs from a decrease in headcount since June 30, 2023 and a decrease in spending on new product development during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Previous report

R&D expenses remained relatively consistent for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of 2023 as the decreases in employee-related costs from lower R&D headcount as well as decreased spending on new product development during the first half of 2024, compared to the first half of 2023, were almost fully offset by the increase in R&D expenses that relate to the results of operations of FlexBiosys and Metenova. These results of operations have been in the consolidated results of operations since the acquisition dates in April 2023 and October 2023, respectively. There were also $0.4 million of costs from restructuring activities incurred by the Company during 2024, for which there were no comparable costs in the same period of 2023 and an adjustment to bring the corporate bonus accrual down recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2023, for which there were no comparable adjustment in the same period of 2024.

Previous report

The remaining 2019 Notes are convertible at the option of the holders as of June 30, 2024 at any time regardless of prior conditions that were in place and will be convertible until the close of business on July 11, 2024, the second trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the 2019 Notes during the second quarter of 2024, the quarter immediately following the quarter when the conditions are met, as stated in the terms of the 2019 Notes. As of the date of this filing, excluding the Exchange Transaction mentioned above, the Company has received requests to convert $0.3 million aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes and all but $5,000 in aggregate principal requested prior to June 30, 2024 have been settled as of June 30, 2024. These conversions resulted in the issuance of a nominal number of shares of the Company’s common stock to the note holders. The remaining $5,000 in aggregate principal will settle with the 2019 Notes that are submitted for conversion prior to July 11, 2024. We will use proceeds from the Exchange Transaction to finance in part, the settlement upon conversion of the remaining 2019 Notes at maturity on July 15, 2024.

Previous wording

As the overall market for biologics continues to grow and expand, our customers – primarily large biopharmaceutical companies and contract development and manufacturing organizations and other life sciences companies (integrators) – face critical production cost, capacity, quality and time pressures. Built to address these concerns, our products help set new standards for the way biologics are manufactured. We are committed to inspiring advances in bioprocessing as a trusted partner in the production of critical biologic drugs – including monoclonal antibodies, recombinant proteins, vaccines and cell and gene therapies – that are improving human health worldwide. Increasingly, our technologies are being implemented to overcome challenges in processing plasmid DNA (a starting material for the production of mRNA) and gene delivery vectors such as lentivirus and adeno-associated viral vectors. For more information regarding our business, products and acquisitions, see Part I, Item 1,“Business”, included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 22, 2024 (“Form 10-K”).

The increase in SG&A costs partially relate to the results of operations of FlexBiosys and Metenova, which have been included in our consolidated results of operations since the acquisition dates in April 2023 and October 2023, respectively. SG&A expenses also increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of 2023 due to increases in employee-related costs, stock-based compensation, professional services and amortization. In addition, there were $0.2 million and $0.9 million in costs incurred from restructuring activities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, for which there were no comparable costs in the same periods of 2023. The increase in employee-related costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of 2023 was due to an increase in SG&A headcount since June 30, 2023. Also included in this increase was the impact of an adjustment recorded during the second quarter of 2023 to decrease the bonus accrual, resulting in an increase to the expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of 2023. In addition, the increase in employee-related costs for the six month period was also a result of our annual merit increase in salaries which occurred in the first quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded the incremental stock compensation expense of $4.4 million associated with the modification of our Chief Executive Officer’s (“CEO”) unvested equity awards resulting from the announcement of his transition from CEO to Executive Chair of our Board, which was announced on June 12, 2024 and effective September 1, 2024. For more information on the CEO’s transition to Executive Chair of our Board. See Note 9,”Stockholders’ Equity - Chief Executive Officer Accounting Modifications”included in this report. Professional fees increased primarily due to added legal services during the second quarter of 2024.

Current wording

One of the primary drivers of this increase was the incremental stock compensation expense of $17.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and $22.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, associated with the modification of our former Chief Executive Officer’s (“CEO”) unvested equity awards resulting from the announcement of his transition from CEO to Executive Chair of our Board, which was announced on June 12, 2024 and effective September 1, 2024. For more information on the former CEO’s transition to Executive Chair of our Board, see Note 10, “Stockholders’ Equity - Chief Executive Officer Accounting Modifications”included in this report.

Previous wording

Contingent consideration expense represents the change in fair value of the contingent consideration obligation included in current and noncurrent contingent consideration on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of the end of each period. Remeasurement of the contingent consideration obligation is done each quarter and the carrying value of the obligation is adjusted to the current fair value through our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Expected results and a change in market inputs used to calculate the discount rate, resulted in a change reported for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 of $1.8 million and $3.0 million, respectively. No adjustment was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 as management’s assessment was that the balances of the contingent consideration obligations already represented fair value.

Investment income includes income earned on invested cash balances. Our investment income increased by $3.4 million and $7.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods of 2023 due to an increase in interest rates on higher average invested cash balances since June 30, 2023. Offsetting this increase was a decrease in interest earned in 2023 on U.S. treasury bills purchased at the end of 2022, for which there was no comparable amount recorded in 2024. We expect investment income to vary based on changes in the amount of funds invested and fluctuation of interest rates.

Current wording

Income tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:

Previous wording

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded an income tax provision of $1.9 million, in each respective period. The effective tax rate was 35.9% and 25.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and is based upon the estimated income for the year ending December 31, 2024 and the composition of income in different jurisdictions.

On March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the FDIC as receiver. Subsequently, the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve and FDIC announced that SVB depositors would have access to all of their money. We have a banking relationship with SVB and hold cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $0.2 million as of June 30, 2024 in SVB depository accounts to cover short-term operational payments. While we have not experienced any losses in such accounts, the failure of SVB in 2023 caused us to utilize our accounts at other financial institutions in order to mitigate potential operational risks stemming from the temporary inability to access funds in our SVB operating accounts. As a result of bank failures, such as SVB, our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance or capitalize our current and projected future business operations could be significantly impaired and could negatively impact the financial institutions with which we have direct arrangements, or the financial services industry or economy in general.
