AtriCure Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Financial Results
AtriCure, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATRC), a leading innovator in treatments for atrial fibrillation (Afib) and related conditions, today announced fourth quarter and full year 2018 financial results.
"We are pleased with our fourth quarter performance, capping a year of strong, consistent revenue growth,” said Mike Carrel, President and Chief Executive Officer of AtriCure. "We are successfully building scalable infrastructure across the entire organization, positioning the company to efficiently expand and grow over the next decade. We remain committed to improving the lives of Afib patients globally, and we have created a strong foundation and culture based on this mission.”
Fourth Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $52.9 million, an increase of $6.8 million or 14.8% (15.3% on a constant currency basis), compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. U.S. revenue increased 19.1% to $43.1 million, driven by increased sales across our key ablation and appendage management products. International revenue was $9.8 million, a decrease of $0.1 million or -0.9% and an increase of 1.4% on a constant currency basis, compared to the fourth quarter of 2017.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $38.6 million compared to $32.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2017. Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2018 increased to 73.0% compared to 71.0% in the fourth quarter of 2017, driven primarily by a higher concentration of higher margin sales in the United States and direct markets in Europe, and a lower contribution to revenue from lower margin sales in Asia and other distributor markets.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2018 increased 18.3%, or $6.4 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increased costs associated with personnel resulting from additional head count and variable compensation, as well as research and development project spend and legal costs, partially offset by lower clinical trial, tradeshow and training costs.
Loss from operations for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $2.6 million, compared to a loss of $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2017. Net loss per share was $0.09 for the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to $0.08 for the fourth quarter of 2017. The adjusted loss per share for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $0.21 compared to an adjusted loss per share for the fourth quarter of 2017 of $0.20. Adjusted loss per share is a non-GAAP measure which excludes the contingent consideration adjustment.
For the fourth quarter of 2018, adjusted EBITDA was positive $0.3 million compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2017. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure.
2018 Financial Results
Revenue for 2018 was $201.6 million, an increase of $26.9 million or 15.4% (14.9% on a constant currency basis), compared to 2017 revenue. U.S. revenue increased 17.2% to $162.1 million, driven by growth across our open-heart ablation products and appendage management products. International revenue was $39.5 million, an increase of $3.2 million or 8.7% (6.1% on a constant currency basis). International revenue growth was driven primarily by increases in product sales in the United Kingdom, Germany, and Japan, partially offset by a decrease in sales in China.
Gross profit for 2018 was $147.1 million compared to $126.2 million for 2017. Gross margin for 2018 increased to 73.0% compared to 72.2% for 2017.
Loss from operations for 2018 was $17.1 million, compared to $25.0 million for 2017. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $2.7 million for 2018, compared to a loss of $5.3 million for 2017. Net loss per share was $0.62 for 2018 compared to $0.83 for 2017. The adjusted loss per share for 2018 was $0.94 compared to an adjusted loss per share of $0.96 for 2017.
2019 Financial Guidance
Revenue for 2019 is projected to be approximately $220 million to $228 million. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is projected to be positive, between $0 and $3 million for 2019. Net loss per share is projected to be in the range of $0.68 to $0.78.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements”– that is, statements related to future events that by their nature address matters that are uncertain. For details on the uncertainties that may cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements, visit http://www.atricure.com/fls as well as our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q which contain risk factors. We do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements. This document also includes forward-looking projected financial information that is based on current estimates and forecasts. Actual results could differ materially.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement AtriCure’s condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, AtriCure uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release as supplemental financial metrics.
Revenue reported on a constant currency basis is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated by applying previous period foreign currency exchange rates, which are determined by the average daily Euro to Dollar exchange rate, to each of the comparable periods. Management analyzes revenue on a constant currency basis to better measure the comparability of results between periods. Because changes in foreign currency exchange rates have a non-operating impact on revenue, the Company believes that evaluating growth in revenue on a constant currency basis provides an additional and meaningful assessment of revenue to both management and the company’s investors.
Adjusted EBITDA provides an indication of performance excluding certain items. Management believes that in order to properly understand short-term and long-term financial trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of these excluded items in addition to GAAP measures. The excluded items vary in frequency and/or impact on our continuing operations and management believes that the excluded items are typically not reflective of our ongoing core business operations. Further, management uses adjusted EBITDA for its strategic planning. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA reported in this release to the most comparable GAAP measure for the respective periods can be found in a table later in this release.
Adjusted loss per share is a non-GAAP measure which calculates the net loss per share before non-cash adjustments to expenses related to the adjustment in value of the contingent consideration liability. Management believes this metric provides a better measure of comparability of results between periods, as such adjustments are not frequent in nature or similar in value, and can be significant. A reconciliation of adjusted loss per share reported in this release to the most comparable GAAP measure for the respective periods can be found in a table later in this release.
The non-GAAP financial measures used by AtriCure may not be the same or calculated the same as those used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for AtriCure’s financial results prepared and reported in accordance with GAAP.
