Full-year 2019 revenue was $64.7 million, compared to $72.2 million for 2018. Fourth-quarter 2019 revenues benefitted from sales growth from the Company’s key biologics customers, which was offset by discontinued distributor arrangements related to the Company’s hardware business and lower demand for certain hardware products.Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 66.8%, compared to 39.7% for the same period in 2018 and was 65.7% for 2019, compared to 60.2% in 2018. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company increased its inventory reserve by $4.6 million, primarily due to excess inventory in the spinal implant product line. Excluding the inventory reserve adjustment, gross profit in 2018 would have been 65.1% for the fourth quarter, and 67.1% for the full year.Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2019 were $11.6 million, compared to $62.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, and were $44.8 million in 2019 compared to $103.6 million in 2018. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company incurred non-cash impairment charges to goodwill and intangibles attributed to the X-spine acquisition totaling $48.1 million. Excluding the non-cash impairment charge, operating expenses were $13.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 and $55.4 million in 2018. These decreases in operating expenses were primarily attributable to lower sales commissions, reduced restructuring expenses, and a decrease in amortization expense as a result of the impairment of intangible assets that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2018, which were partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses.Fourth-quarter 2019 net loss was $1.6 million, or $0.12 per share, compared to the fourth quarter 2018 net loss of $56.7 million, or $4.31 per share. Net loss for 2019 was $8.2 million, or $0.62 per share, compared to $70.1 million, or $5.97 per share, in 2018. Excluding the non-cash impairment charges and the inventory reserve charges, the net loss was $3.9 million, or $0.30 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2018, and $17.0 million, or $1.45 per share, in 2018.Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $1.2 million compared to $1.7 million for the same period of 2018. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for 2019 was $3.9 million, compared to $5.4 million for 2018. The Company defines non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as net income/loss from operations before depreciation, amortization, and interest expense, and as further adjusted to add back in or exclude, as applicable, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, provision for losses on accounts receivable and inventory, stock-based compensation, changes in warrant derivative liability, remediation expenses, separation-related expenses, litigation reserves, facility consolidation costs, and restructuring expenses.
