and Raises Full Year Guidance

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Nov 9, 2021 -- 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 its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021 and provided updated 2021 guidance.

Third Quarter Highlights and Outlook

•Third quarter worldwide sales of $29.0 million, an increase of 27.6% year-over-year.

•2021 guidance increased to a new range of $124 million to $128 million, an increase of 46% to 51% over 2020; previous 2021 guidance range was $122 million to $126 million.

•Gross profit for the third quarter was 67.6% of revenue, compared to 66.6% of revenue for the same period in 2020.

•Third quarter operating expenses of $28.7 million, an increase of 61.6% compared to the third quarter of 2020 as spending returned to more normalized levels following the global disruption in 2020.

•Cash balance of $64.6 million as of September 30, 2021.

•Launched Motiva Flora® tissue expander in Europe and CE mark countries at London Breast Meeting.

•Motiva JOY® and Motiva MIA® development and commercialization plans progressing as planned.

•Timelines for US and China market entry remain unchanged.

“The momentum we have seen across all areas of our business in 2021 continued in the third quarter,” said Juan José Chacón-Quirós, Chief Executive Officer. “Third quarter revenue of $29.0 million was up 27.6% from the third quarter of 2020 and we are raising full year 2021 revenue guidance to a new range of $124 million to $128 million.”

“Our strong financial results are being matched by the significant progress we are making across a number of programs and initiatives,” Mr. Chacón-Quirós continued. "We launched our Motiva Flora tissue expander at the London Breast Meeting during the third quarter. This is an important step in our Aesthetic BreastRecon® program, where we are working to expand awareness and access of post-mastectomy reconstruction while offering the tools and techniques that allow women to receive reconstructive surgeries that achieve the aesthetic ideals to which they aspire."

“In addition, our JOY and MIA programs are progressing. These advances are not only opening up significant new markets, they are also allowing us to have a more direct relationship with women on their journey with Motiva. Our regulatory and commercial timelines to begin selling Motiva implants in the U.S. and Chinese markets are also progressing as planned. We remain on a clear path to becoming the leader in breast aesthetics and reconstruction, and to expand these markets as we offer safe, differentiated, and accessible solutions to women.”

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Total revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $29.0 million compared to $22.8 million for the same period in 2020. Direct sales comprised approximately 41% of total sales, while distributor sales made up the balance.

Gross profit for the third quarter was $19.6 million, or 67.6% of revenue, compared to $15.1 million, or 66.6% of revenue, for the same period in 2020. The change in gross margin was the result of regional mix returning to more normalized levels as well as increased production volumes.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter were $28.7 million, an increase of $10.9 million compared to $17.7 million in the third quarter of 2020.

SG&A expenses for the third quarter increased approximately $9.8 million to $24.8 million compared to $15.0 million in the third quarter of 2020. The increase resulted from more normalized business practices following disruption from the global pandemic in the year ago period.

R&D expenses increased approximately $1.2 million to $3.9 million in the third quarter compared to $2.7 million for the same quarter a year ago. The majority of the increase was due to a normalization of spending levels and the timing of clinical trial and other expenses.

Net loss from operations for the third quarter was $9.0 million compared to a net loss of $2.6 million in the year ago period.

The Company’s cash balance on September 30, 2021 was $64.6 million. Cash decreased $19.9 million from December 31, 2020 and $12.2 million from the prior quarter, primarily as the result of operating losses and changes in working capital.

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.
