Cryoport Revenues Climb 74% for the Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2016
Company Adds Over 160 New Customers in First Half of FY2016
63% Revenue Growth for the First Half of FY2016; Full Year Revenue Guidance Confirmed
LAKE FOREST, Calif., Nov. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Cryoport, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYRX) ("Cryoport" or the "Company") today announced financial results for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2015.
Commenting on the second quarter results, Jerrell Shelton, Chief Executive Officer of Cryoport, stated, "We delivered strong top line growth of 74%, overcoming seasonality and orders that slipped to our third fiscal quarter. This growth was driven by the addition of a significant number of new clients, as well as continuing growth within our existing client base. Given our traction and client business that we have visibility on, our revenue guidance of $10 - $12 million for fiscal 2016 remains intact."
"During the first half of fiscal 2016, we added more than 160 new clients as we continue to make strides in our business development and demand for our leading cold chain logistics solutions strengthens. In fact, we estimate that Cryoport currently supports approximately 20% of all the Phase III clinical trials for regenerative therapies. We support 52 clinical trials in total. As most shareholders know, as the therapies we are supporting in the Phase III of their trials receive regulatory clearance and move to commercialization, we can expect long-term growth of substantial proportion," stated Mr. Shelton.
"There is no doubt that this is an important time for Cryoport as we are experiencing increasing demand for our unique cold chain solutions as the cellular therapy segment of the life sciences industry continues to develop and experience success. We continue adding new clinical trial clients at an impressive pace and are in late-stage discussions with several clients regarding long-term supply agreements as they prepare to commercialize their respective therapies. By our estimates, the clinical trials that we currently support could generate cumulative revenues of more than $150 million over the next five years for Cryoport. And as we continue to add new clinical trial clients, we expect to increase our five-year cumulative revenue outlook, which will shorten our pathway to profitability and drive value for our shareholders," concluded Mr. Shelton.
Highlights:
Biopharma
- Increased client base by over 160 during first six months, now supporting 8 of the top 10 regenerative therapy companies.
- Supporting approximately 20% of the Phase III clinical trials in regenerative therapy market and 52 clinical trials in total, a 150% increase during the current fiscal year.
Reproductive Medicine
- Revenue from the reproductive medicine market increased by 75% for the quarter, driven by targeted sales and marketing campaigns that increased awareness of Cryoport's cryogenic logistics solutions.

New and Upgraded Facilities in California
- Entered into a new lease for a 27,600 square foot facility in Irvine, CA that will support the expansion of operations as a result of the growing demand for the Company's cryogenic logistics solutions.
Financial Results:
- Revenues increased 74% to $1.4 million and 63% to $2.9 million for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2015, respectively. This growth was driven by an overall surge in the number of clients utilizing the Company's solutions complimented by growth and frequency of shipments from current clients.
- Gross margin for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2015 was 30% and 32%, respectively, compared to 27% and 32% for the same periods in the prior year. The Company's gross margin target continues to be 60%, which can be expected when cash flow breakeven is achieved.
- Operating costs and expenses increased by $0.7 million and $1.3 million for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2015, respectively. This increase is primarily due to equity-based compensation charges, salaries incurred to expand the sales force and the engagement of a new marketing firm to support sales activities.
- Net loss for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2015 was $2.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively. Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2015 was $2.7 million, or $0.41 per share and $9.3 million, or $1.61 per share, respectively. The increase for the six month period ended September 30, 2015 is partially the result of an increase in non-cash, preferred stock beneficial conversion charges of $2.0 million and an increase in undeclared cumulative preferred dividends of $0.3 million.
- Cryoport reported $7.1 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2015, compared to $1.4 million at as of fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.
