AtriCure, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATRC), a leading innovator in treatments for atrial fibrillation (Afib) and left atrial appendage (LAA) management, today announced fourth quarter 2019 and full year 2019 financial results.
“We achieved several critical accomplishments throughout 2019, highlighted by the submission of our final module for the CONVERGE IDE clinical trial to FDA coupled with enrollment completion in our aMAZE IDE clinical trial in the fourth quarter of 2019,” said Michael Carrel, President and Chief Executive Officer of AtriCure. “Looking ahead to the next decade, we are confident that we have built a strong foundation for success.”
Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial Results
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $61.3 million, an increase of $8.4 million or 15.9% (16.4% on a constant currency basis), compared to fourth quarter 2018 revenue. U.S. revenue was $49.5 million, an increase of $6.4 million or 14.9%, compared to fourth quarter 2018 revenue. International revenue increased 20.5% (an increase of 22.8% on a constant currency basis) to $11.8 million. Both U.S. and international revenue growth were driven by increased sales across appendage management and open ablation product lines.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $44.8 million compared to $38.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Gross margin was 73.0% for both the fourth quarter of 2019 and 2018.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased 45.9%, or $18.9 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase in operating expense was driven by a $6.1 million year over year change in non-cash charges related to the contingent consideration liability and approximately $5.8 million related to the absorption of SentreHEART headcount, aMAZE clinical trial expenses, and acquisition related costs. Other expense drivers include increased personnel costs resulting from additional headcount and variable compensation and research and development project spend.
Loss from operations for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $15.3 million, compared to $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Net loss per share was $0.42 for the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to a net loss per share of $0.09 for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $5.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to positive $0.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Adjusted loss per share for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $0.37 compared to $0.21 for the fourth quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted loss per share are non-GAAP measures.
2019 Financial Results
Revenue for 2019 was $230.8 million, an increase of $29.2 million or 14.5% (15.2% on a constant currency basis), compared to 2018 revenue. US revenue increased 14.6% to $185.8 million, driven by growth across our open ablation products and appendage management products. International revenue was $45.0 million, an increase of $5.5 million or 13.9% (17.6% on a constant currency basis). International revenue growth was driven by primarily by increases in product sales in China, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia and Japan.
Gross profit for 2019 was $170.3 million compared to $147.1 million for 2018. Gross margin for 2019 increased to 73.8% compared to 73.0% for 2018.
Loss from operations for 2019 was $33.1 million, compared to $17.1 million for 2018. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $6.7 million for 2019, compared to $2.7 million for 2018. Net loss per share was $0.94 for 2019 compared to $0.62 for 2018. The adjusted loss per share for 2019 was $1.07 compared to an adjusted loss per share of $0.94 for 2018.
2020 Financial Guidance
Revenue is projected to be approximately $254 million to $261 million, reflecting growth of approximately 10% to 13% over full year 2019. Adjusted EBITDA is projected to be a loss of approximately $10 million for 2020. Adjusted net loss per share is projected to be in the range of $1.14 to $1.24.

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 is calculated as Net loss before other income/expense (including interest), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, acquisition costs, and change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities. Due to the nonrecurring nature of acquisition costs, the Company has modified the calculation of adjusted EBITDA to exclude acquisition costs. Acquisition costs are expenses incurred to effect a business combination and include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other professional fees; finder fees; and costs of registering and issuing debt and equity securities. Prior to the SentreHEART transaction, the Company’s most recent acquisition occurred in October 2015 and acquisition costs related to the transactions were included in the calculation of adjusted EBITDA at that time. The Company believes it is appropriate to modify the calculation of adjusted EBITDA to exclude acquisition costs because the Company has concluded that acquisition costs are generally nonrecurring and are not reflective of the operational results of the Company’s core business, and the Company believes this approach is more comparable to peer company reporting. Management believes in order to properly understand the 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 results of operations and management believes that the excluded items are typically not reflective of our ongoing core business operations and financial condition. Further, management uses adjusted EBITDA for both strategic and annual operating planning, and previously used adjusted EBITDA as a performance metric in the annual incentive plan. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA reported in this release to the most comparable GAAP measure for the respective periods can be found in the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Loss (Adjusted EBITDA)” 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 contingent consideration liabilities. Management believes this metric provides a better measure of comparability of results between periods, as such adjustments can be significant and vary in value and are not reflective of our core business. 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 the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Loss Per Share” 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.
