Fourth Quarter 2018 and Recent Highlights:

On December 10, 2018, the Company completed its business combination between Organogenesis Inc. and Avista Healthcare Public Acquisition Corp. (AHPAC). Funds affiliated with Avista Capital Partners, a leading private equity firm, invested a total of $92 million in the combined company in conjunction with the business combination.
On March 14, 2019, the Company closed on a new credit agreement with Silicon Valley Bank and MidCap Financial providing an aggregate principal amount of $100 million in the form of a $60 million term loan and a $40 million revolving credit facility.
On March 14, 2019, Jack Farr, MD, Medical Director of the Cartilage Research Center of Indiana presented clinical trial results demonstrating effectiveness of ReNu® in treating symptoms associated with knee osteoarthritis at the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons Annual Meeting.

“2018 was a year of strong execution and significant accomplishments on all fronts,” said Gary S. Gillheeney, Sr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Organogenesis. “Despite a reimbursement transition for our PuraPly products, strong execution from our sales team generated record unit sales of PuraPly AM during the year driven by strong physician adoption. We substantially offset the PuraPly reimbursement transition in 2018 with solid sales performance across the rest of our Advanced Wound Care product portfolio and a strong year of sales of our Surgical & Sports Medicine products.”

Mr. Gillheeney, Sr. continued: “This substantial momentum has continued into 2019, and we are well positioned to execute our strategic objectives. Our broad and diversified commercial portfolio and pipeline assets combined with our enhanced balance sheet, provide a unique platform to deliver innovative therapies to our customers and patients and to accelerate our short- and long-term growth.”

Fourth Quarter 2018 Results:

Net revenue for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $63.6 million, compared to $53.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $10.5 million, or 19.7%. The increase in net revenue was driven by a $7.4 million increase in net revenue of Advanced Wound Care products and a $3.0 million increase in net revenue of Surgical & Sports Medicine products, representing growth of 15.8% and 50.6%, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. Net revenue of PuraPly products for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $28.5 million, compared to $28.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1.1%. Net revenue of PuraPly products represented approximately 45% of net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to 53% of net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $46.1 million or 72.5% of net revenue, compared to $36.7 million, or 69.1% of net revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $9.4 million, or 25.5%. The largest contributor to the improvement in our gross margin amount and percentage from the year prior period was a more favorable product mix of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $50.6 million, compared to $39.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $11.4 million, or 29.3%. The increase in operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2018 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 was driven primarily by higher selling, general and administrative expenses which increased to $47.5 million, compared to $36.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $11.1 million, or 30.5%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to additional headcount, including in the direct sales force, higher marketing and promotional expenses for our products, and additional amortization as a result of the 2017 NuTech Medical acquisition. Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2018 were also impacted by higher R&D expense which was $3.1 million, compared to $2.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $0.4 million, or 13%.

Operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $4.5 million, compared to an operating loss of $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $2.1 million, or 86.5%. Total other expenses for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $4.8 million, compared to $2.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $2.5 million, or 111.3% The increase was driven primarily by a $2.1 million non-cash loss on the extinguishment of debt related to the write off of unamortized debt issuance costs upon repayment of affiliate debt in December 2018.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $9.3 million, or $0.12 per share, compared to a net loss of $4.4 million, or $0.07 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of $4.8 million, or 109%.

Fiscal Year 2018 Results:

Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $193.4 million, compared to $198.5 million for 2017, a decrease of $5.1 million, or 2.5%. The decrease in net revenue was driven by a $14.6 million decrease, or 8.1%, in net revenue of Advanced Wound Care products, partially offset by a $9.5 million increase, or 48.5%, in net revenue of Surgical & Sports Medicine products compared to the prior year. The decrease in Advanced Wound Care net revenue was primarily attributable to the loss of pass‑through reimbursement status for PuraPly during the first nine months of 2018. This decrease was partially offset by a full year of sales of our amniotic products. Net revenue of PuraPly products for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $69.8 million, compared to $109.1 million for 2017, a decrease of $39.3 million, or 36%.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $124.6 million or 64.4% of net revenue, compared to $137.3 million, or 69.2% of net revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2017, a decrease of $12.6 million, or 9.2%. The largest contributor to the decline in gross margin from the year earlier period was primarily attributable to the loss of pass‑through reimbursement status for PuraPly during the first nine months of 2018.

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $176.2 million, compared to $142.8 million for 2017, an increase of $33.4 million, or 23.4%. The increase in operating expenses in 2018 as compared to 2017 was driven primarily by higher selling, general and administrative expenses which increased to $162.0 million, compared to $133.7 million in 2017, an increase of $28.2 million, or 21.1%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to additional headcount, primarily in our direct sales force, higher marketing and promotional materials for our products, and additional amortization as a result of the NuTech Medical acquisition. Operating expenses in 2018 were also impacted by higher R&D expense which was $10.7 million, compared to $9.1 million in 2017, an increase of $1.7 million, or 18.5%.

Operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $51.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $5.5 million for 2017, an increase of $46.1 million, or 838.4%. Total other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $13.2 million, compared to $9.1 million for 2017, an increase of $4.1 million, or 45.7%.

Use of Non‑GAAP Measures
Our management uses financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, in addition to financial measures in accordance with GAAP to evaluate our operating results. These non‑GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA principally as a measure of our operating performance and believes Adjusted EBITDA helps identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the items that we exclude. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision‑making.

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Organogenesis Holdings Inc. before depreciation and amortization, net interest expense and income taxes and we define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, further adjusted for the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. These items consist of non-cash equity compensation, mark to market adjustments on our warrant liabilities, change in fair value of interest rate swaps and our contingent asset and liabilities, write-off of deferred offering costs, Avista merger transaction costs and a loss on the extinguishment of debt. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because it is a key measure used by our management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of certain items in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can produce a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business.
Our Adjusted EBITDA is not prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than net income (loss) attributable to Organogenesis Holdings Inc., which is the most directly comparable GAAP equivalent. Some of these limitations are:

Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense, as stock-based compensation expense has recently been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes net interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest, which reduces cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of the changes in the fair value of our warrant liability, our contingent consideration forfeiture asset, and the fair value of interest rate swaps;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes the write-off of deferred offering costs, as well as merger transaction costs, consisting primarily of legal and professional fees;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes the loss on extinguishment of debt, which is a non-cash loss related to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs upon repayment of affiliate debt;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes income tax expense (benefit); and
other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, we consider, and you should consider, Adjusted EBITDA together with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss attributable to Organogenesis Holdings Inc., the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, has been included herein.
