From Oct 2024 to Dec 2024
Allurion Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ALUR) (“Allurion” or the “Company”), a company dedicated to ending obesity, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 and provided a business update.
Recent Company Highlights
“We observed robust growth in procedure volume in the third quarter in regions previously impacted by GLP-1s like the Middle East and in parts of Latin America where the macro headwinds we have faced previously appear to be subsiding,” said Dr. Shantanu Gaur, Chief Executive Officer. “Our results were adversely affected by the suspension of sales in France, destocking in certain markets, and the availability of compounded GLP-1s in the UK. Overall, our performance validates the need for considerable change at Allurion. As part of our restructuring, we have installed new leadership in the commercial team and are implementing a new sales strategy that strengthens the sales force in number and focus, shifting them away from less efficient direct-to-consumer approaches and toward what we expect to be more profitable and predictable business-to-business-to-consumer sales strategies with a specific focus on direct markets. With our new plan going into 2025, I have clarity and excitement about our path forward.
“We remain committed to achieving profitability by the end of next year, and we are optimistic about future catalysts, including the AUDACITY read-out expected before the end of this year. We are also optimistic about resuming commercialization in France following the completion of our remediation plan in September. In parallel, we have been pleased to see a steady stream of research articles on the Allurion Balloon published in peer-reviewed journals that validate the balloon’s safety and efficacy,” Dr. Gaur continued.
“We have also observed robust growth in our AI product revenue, especially as providers expand their practices with GLP-1s. With revenues increasing at this pace, we believe we can expand this business further and plan on testing Coach Iris—our verticalized, conversational AI agent for weight loss—in different use cases in the coming months.”
The Company is updating its full-year 2024 revenue guidance to between $30 million and $35 million and expects growth in procedure volume to be flat year-over-year.
In early November 2024, the Company began implementing a worldwide restructuring plan (the “2024 Restructuring Plan”). The 2024 Restructuring Plan was designed to align the Company’s operating expenses with its current sales forecast and strategic plan with a focus on sales and marketing outside of the United States. This restructuring included a worldwide reduction in both workforce and operating expenses of approximately 50% to reduce future operating cash burn. These actions are intended to increase operational and financial flexibility, position the Company to navigate an evolving economic landscape, and extend its financial runway for sustained future growth in 2025 and beyond. The Company anticipates recording restructuring charges of approximately $3.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Third Quarter Financial Results
Total revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $5.4 million, compared to $18.2 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year decrease in revenue reflected de-stocking, macroeconomic headwinds in certain markets leading to lower re-order rates during the period, the temporary suspension of sales in France and the resulting reduction to revenue in the period for product recalled in the third quarter of 2024 from France, and reductions in sales to certain accounts to manage credit risk.
Gross profit for the third quarter was 58%, compared to 77% for the same period in 2023, negatively impacted by the reduction to revenue in the period related to the product recalled in France, and lower production volumes, which resulted in less manufacturing labor and overhead being absorbed into inventory costs.
Sales and marketing expenses for the third quarter decreased by approximately $8.8 million to $5.2m million, compared to $14.0 million for the same period in 2023, driven largely by increased operating efficiency and our previous cost reduction initiatives implemented in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Research and development expenses decreased by $4.0 million to $3.2 million in the quarter driven by reduced costs related to our AUDACITY clinical trial.
General and administrative expenses of $7.0 million decreased by $11.9 million, driven by $10.0 million of transaction-related expenses and stock-based compensation expense related to the business combination with Compute Health recognized in the third quarter of 2023 and less bad debts expense recognized in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023.
Loss from operations for the third quarter decreased by $13.8 million to $12.3 million, compared to $26.2 million in the same period in 2023. The decrease in loss from operations was driven by $10.0 million of transaction-related expenses and stock-based compensation expense related to the business combination with Compute Health recognized in the third quarter of 2023 and less bad debts expense recognized in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023 as well as our efforts to reduce operating costs.
Cash balance on September 30, 2024 was $28.7 million.
