- Covered lives increased to 133 million
- Average selling price and test revenue grew sequentially
- Cash runway into the first quarter of 2025
DermTech, Inc. (NASDAQ: DMTK) (DermTech or the Company), a leader in precision dermatology enabled by a non-invasive skin genomics technology, today reported its second-quarter 2023 financial results.
“We’ve recently taken a few necessary steps to streamline operations and put all our energy into scaling the DermTech Melanoma Test (DMT) and prioritizing reimbursed billable samples to grow revenue,” said Bret Christensen, CEO, DermTech. “We’re pursuing a large addressable market where significant patient need exists, with approximately 200,000 new cases of melanoma reported every year in the U.S. resulting in $3.3 billion in annual treatment costs. My vision is for the DMT to be deployed universally as part of the melanoma care pathway and we have an excellent product to execute against this goal.”
Christensen continued, “We’ve made solid progress in the first half of 2023 entering into new payer agreements. Since the end of last year, we’ve expanded covered lives approximately 45 percent to 133 million and now work with seven of the top ten Blues plans and two large governmental payers. We must continue to actively engage with payers and reinforce our message around the clinical and health economic benefits of our test, as well as improve the onboarding process once we’ve completed agreements. We’ve also begun to adjust our commercial tactics to support our focus on reimbursed tests and maximizing revenue. Importantly, we’ve modified incentive compensation for our sales team to prioritize revenue over volume and dissolved or merged certain sales territories to focus on geographies where we have broad insurance coverage. We’re also targeting our spending more closely to sales team enablement rather than broad-based marketing efforts. We need to build DMT adoption at the ground level with clinicians and are confident this change in our approach will be beneficial.”
Christensen concluded, “We believe anchoring our effort around monetizing our already significant demand is the best way to reach a meaningful revenue inflection point while managing our cash runway. We plan for revenue to grow in 2023, and as result of our recent restructuring actions, anticipate that our cash runway will now take us into the first quarter of 2025.”
