(Nasdaq: SWAV), a pioneer in the development and commercialization of Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) to treat complex calcified cardiovascular disease, today reported financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Sales of all products, both in the U.S. and international markets, outperformed expectations, and operationally our accomplishments continue to be the backbone of our success,” said Doug Godshall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Shockwave Medical. “These results were particularly impressive in light of the many ongoing macro issues we have all seen across the globe. Despite these challenges, our team and our customers have been able to adapt and remain focused on using our IVL technology to treat patients suffering from calcified vascular disease.”  

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, was $131.3 million, a 102% increase from $65.2 million in the same period of 2021. The growth was primarily driven by the launch of the coronary product, Shockwave C2, in the U.S. in February 2021, continued recovery from the pandemic impact and increased adoption of Shockwave products.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2022 was $113.5 million compared to $54.2 million for the third quarter of 2021. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2022 was 86%, as compared to 83% in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by product mix along with continued improvement in manufacturing productivity and process efficiencies.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2022 were $76.7 million, a 49% increase from $51.4 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by sales force expansion in the U.S. and higher headcount to support the growth of the business.

Net income for the third quarter of 2022 was $35.0 million, compared to net income of $1.9 million in the same period of 2021. Basic and diluted net income per share for the third quarter of 2022 was $0.97 and $0.92, respectively.  

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $250.7 million as of September 30, 2022.

2022 Financial Guidance

Shockwave Medical projects revenue for the full year 2022 to range from $483 million to $488 million, which represents 104% to 106% growth over the Company’s prior year revenue. This compares to previous revenue guidance of $465 million to $475 million.
