BELGRADE, Mont., Feb. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: XTNT), a global medical technology company focused on surgical solutions for the treatment of spinal disorders, today reported financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Financial Highlights:

• Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 totaled $14.0 million, compared to $17.0 million for the prior-year period
• Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2020 totaled $8.7 million, compared to $11.7 million for the prior-year period
• Income from operations totaled $0.2 million, compared to an operating loss of $0.3 million for the prior-year period
• Net loss incurred in the fourth quarter of 2020 totaled $0.7 million, compared to a net loss of $1.6 million for the prior-year period
• Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2020 totaled $1.1 million, compared to $1.2 million for the prior-year period
  

“Highlighted by consecutive quarters of positive operating income in the second half of 2020, we are pleased with our progress despite the significant impact COVID-19 had on elective procedures in our largest markets,” said Sean Browne, President and CEO. “In response to the pandemic, we took aggressive steps to align our business with the changing market environment and reduce our costs. These actions, when combined with our successful 2020 debt restructuring and recently announced $20 million private placement, provide us with positive momentum as we enter 2021.”

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Financial Results

Fourth quarter 2020 revenue was $14.0 million, compared to $17.0 million for the same period in 2019. Full year 2020 revenue was $53.3 million, compared to $64.7 million for 2019. The decline in revenue for both periods was largely attributed to the impact of COVID-19 and sudden drop in elective procedures that began in early March 2020. Elective procedures have recovered to some extent in the second half of 2020, partially offsetting this impact.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2020 was 64.1%, compared to 67.3% for the same period in 2019 and was 64.5% for 2020, compared to 65.7% in 2019. These reductions in gross profit were primarily attributable to diminished economies of scale, partially offset by reduced depreciation expense.

Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 totaled $8.7 million, compared to $11.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, and were $35.1 million in 2020 compared to $44.8 million in 2019. These decreases were primarily the result of reduced sales commissions due to lower sales, and lower levels of salaries and wages, legal and consulting fees, executive recruiting fees, marketing-related costs and research and development expenses, in each case compared to the prior-year period.

Fourth quarter 2020 net loss totaled $0.7 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to the fourth quarter 2019 net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.12 per share. Net loss for 2020 was $7.0 million, or $0.25 per share, compared to $8.2 million, or $0.62 per share, in 2019.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2020 totaled $1.1 million, compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2019. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for 2020 totaled $3.9 million, compared to $3.9 million for 2019. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income/loss from operations before depreciation, amortization and interest expense and provision for income taxes, and as further adjusted to add back in or exclude, as applicable, non-cash special charges, provision for losses on inventory and accounts receivable, non-cash compensation, change in warrant derivative liability, separation related expenses, field action expenses and litigation reserves. A calculation and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss can be found in the attached financial tables.
