Endologix, Inc. (the "Company") ELGX, a developer and marketer of innovative treatments for aortic disorders, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020. The Company's financial results are preliminary and subject to any adjustments that may occur following the completion of the quarterly review of the Company's financial statements by its independent auditor.

Global revenue in the first quarter of 2020 was $28.51 million, a 19.9% decrease from $35.61 million in the first quarter of 2019.

"Our first quarter results were impacted by the deferral of AAA procedures related to the COVID-19 pandemic," commented John Onopchenko, Chief Executive Officer of Endologix, Inc. "We are confident that these deferred procedures will be rescheduled once hospitals widen the criteria for treating AAA patients from today's 'emergent only' standard. As we navigate this pandemic, our top priority remains the safety of our employees as well as the patients, surgeons, and affiliated caregivers that we serve. As hospitals resume a more normalized level of care, we are also focused on ensuring the continued availability of products to patients in need. We are taking the necessary actions to prepare for a return to pre-pandemic procedure volume and to provide necessary case support and ongoing execution of our continuous improvement mandate."

Financial Results

U.S. revenue in the first quarter of 2020 was $18.6 million, a 18.2% decrease from $22.8 million in the first quarter of 2019.

International revenue in the first quarter of 2020 was $9.9 million, a 22.9% decrease from $12.8 million in the first quarter of 2019. On a constant currency basis, international revenue decreased 21.1% compared to the first quarter of 2019.

Gross profit was $15.1 million in the first quarter of 2020, representing a gross margin of 53.1%. This compares to a gross profit of $23.2 million, or a gross margin of 65.2%, in the first quarter of 2019. Gross profit in the first quarter of 2020 was negatively impacted by unfavorable variances associated with lower revenue.

Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2019 included $0.4 million of costs associated with restructuring. Excluding these items, operating expenses decreased 9.9% compared to the first quarter of 2019.

Net Loss for the first quarter of 2020 was $18.1 million, or $(0.90) per share, compared to a Net Loss of $22.0 million, or $(2.12) per share, a year ago. Adjusted Net Loss (non-GAAP measure, defined below) totaled $16.2 million, compared to an Adjusted Net Loss of $11.7 million for the first quarter of 2019. Adjusted EBITDA loss (non-GAAP measure, defined below) totaled $13.2 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $7.6 million a year ago.

Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash were $42.2 million as of March 31, 2020, compared to $42.8 million as of December 31, 2019. The March 31, 2020 balance included $10.5 million outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility with certain affiliates of Deerfield Management Company, L.P.

Fiscal Year 2020 Financial Guidance

The Company believes that COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have a negative impact on its financial results and business operations. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the magnitude of COVID-19's spread and evolution, as well as the present inability to accurately forecast the ultimate impact to the Company's operations and financial results, management has withdrawn the Company's previously issued financial guidance for 2020 and will not be providing financial guidance at this time.

About Endologix, Inc.

The Company develops and manufactures minimally invasive treatments for aortic disorders. The Company's focus is in endovascular stent grafts for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA).

Once an AAA develops, it continues to enlarge and, if left untreated, becomes increasingly susceptible to rupture. The overall patient mortality rate for ruptured AAA is approximately 80%, making it a leading cause of death in the U.S. For more information, visit www.endologix.com.

The Nellix® EndoVascular Aneurysm Sealing System has a CE Mark and is an investigational device in the United States. The Ovation Alto® System has obtained FDA approval in the United States and is presently an investigational device in the EU.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company's management believes that the non-GAAP measures of (1) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)" and (2) "Adjusted EBITDA" enhance an investor's overall understanding of the Company's financial and operating performance and its future prospects by (i) being more reflective of core operating performance and (ii) being more comparable with financial results over various periods. These measures, when used in conjunction with related financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), provide investors with an additional financial analytical framework that may be useful in assessing the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The Company's management uses these financial measures for strategic decision making, forecasting future financial results, and evaluating current period financial and operating performance. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, these measures are not intended to be liquidity measures. Other companies, including other companies in the Company's industry, may not use these measures or may calculate these measures differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. The Company intends to calculate these non-GAAP financial measures in a consistent manner from period to period. A reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided under the heading "Non-GAAP Reconciliations" in the financial statement tables attached to this press release.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Definition:

(1) "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)" is a non-GAAP measure defined by the Company as net income (loss) under GAAP, excluding (to the extent relevant in a particular reporting period): (i) restructuring and other transition costs; (ii) contract termination, product withdrawal and business acquisition expenses; (iii) legal settlement costs; (iv) business development expenses, including licensing costs related to research and development activities; (v) inventory step-up amortization; (vi) interest expense; (vii) foreign currency loss (gain); (viii) fair value adjustment to Nellix® contingent consideration liability; (ix) fair value adjustment of derivative liabilities; and (x) loss on debt extinguishment.

In the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, this GAAP adjustment to net loss specifically represents: (i) restructuring and other transition costs; (ii) contract termination, product withdrawal and business acquisition expenses; (iii) interest expense; (iv) foreign currency loss (gain); (v) fair value adjustment to Nellix® contingent consideration liability; (vi) fair value adjustment of derivative liabilities; and (vii) loss on debt extinguishment.

Adjusted EBITDA Definition:

(2) "Adjusted EBITDA" is a non-GAAP measure defined by the Company as "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)" excluding income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and stock-based compensation expense.
