2019 Annual Guidance
For the year ending December 31, 2019, the Company is updating its financial guidance as follows:
• | Sales are estimated to be in the range of $358 million to $365 million, which represents an annual sales growth of 95 percent to 99 percent compared to 2018. The Company’s prior sales guidance for 2019 was estimated to be in the range of $350 million to $365 million. |
◦ | Includes international sales of approximately $58 million to $60 million. |
• | Gross margin is estimated to be approximately 54 percent, compared to 49 percent in 2018. |
• | Adjusted EBITDA(1) is estimated to be 7 percent to 12 percent |
• | Non-cash charges included in cost of goods sold and operating expenses are estimated to be approximately $60 million, which include: |
◦ | Approximately $53 million in non-cash, stock-based compensation expense |
◦ | Approximately $7 million of depreciation and amortization |
(1) EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income (loss) excluding income taxes, interest and other non-operating items and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts for non-cash stock-based compensation expense. This definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by the Company to evaluate operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions for the allocation of capital. The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA to provide information that may assist investors in understanding its financial results. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for net loss.

The Company will hold a conference call and simultaneous webcast today at 4:30pm Eastern Time (1:30pm Pacific Time). The link to the webcast and information regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures will be available by accessing the Investor Center of the Tandem Diabetes Care website at http://investor.tandemdiabetes.com, and will be archived for 30 days.

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that concern matters that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or projected in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding, among other things, the Company’s projected financial results and the Company’s ability to drive growth through innovation. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements due to numerous risks and uncertainties. For instance, the Company’s ability to achieve projected financial results, including its sales and profitability goals, will be impacted by the Company’s ability to obtain regulatory approvals for new products and products under development and the timing of any such approvals; market acceptance of the Company’s existing products and products under development by physicians and people with diabetes; the Company’s ability to establish and sustain operations to support international sales; the Company’s ability to meet increasing operational and infrastructure requirements from higher customer interest and a larger base of existing customers; the potential that newer products, or other technological breakthroughs for the monitoring, treatment or prevention of diabetes, may render the Company’s products obsolete or less desirable; and the potential that the process of purchasing the Company’s products, including insurance verification approval for individual customers, may delay or prevent the sale of the products. Other risks and uncertainties include the Company’s ability to manufacture products at quantities at higher volumes at an acceptable cost and in accordance with quality requirements; the Company’s ability to contract with third-party payors for reimbursement of the Company’s products; and other risks identified in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
