NanoString Provides Preliminary Financial and Operational Highlights for Fourth Quarter and FY 2022

Generated Record Orders for Over 105 Spatial Biology Instruments in Q4, Representing 50% Growth Year-over-Year

Q4 Product and Service Revenue of Over $34 Million, Within Guidance Range of $33 to $35 Million

NanoString Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:NSTG), a leading provider of life science tools for discovery and translational research, today reported preliminary financial and operational highlights for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

“NanoString continued to build on our strong spatial biology franchise in 2022, capturing a record 105+ new system orders in the fourth quarter, bringing growth in spatial biology system orders to 50% for the full year,” said Brad Gray, President and CEO of NanoString. “We shipped our first CosMx systems to customers in December, and our CosMx order backlog of approximately $40 million at year end provides the foundation for revenue growth in 2023.”

Q4 and 2022 Highlights

Spatial Biology

  • Secured customer orders for more than 105 spatial biology systems in Q4, including approximately 80 for CosMx™ Spatial Molecular Imagers (SMI) and over 25 for GeoMx Digital Spatial Profilers (DSP), an increase of 50% as compared to 2021 for both the fourth quarter and full year 2022
  • CosMx SMI highlighted on the cover of the December 2022 issue of Nature Biotechnology, demonstrating high-resolution, single cell imaging of RNA and protein
  • CosMx SMI featured in the January 2023 issue of National Geographic. Researchers at Wake Forest used CosMx to perform high-resolution imaging of brain tissue in their ongoing Alzheimer’s research. They were able to discover rare senescence cells that contribute to neurodegeneration
  • Total peer-reviewed publications featuring our spatial biology platforms were approximately 195 as of December 2022, representing an increase of approximately 105 publications in the last 12 months
  • NanoString was named the Gold Sponsor for 2023 Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) meeting, where we will host a workshop on February 7, 2023 highlighting advances in our spatial biology platforms and showcasing research conducted by our collaborators and customers

nCounter

  • Concluded 2022 with an nCounter installed base of approximately 1,120 systems, an increase of approximately 7% as compared to 2021
  • Total peer-reviewed publications featuring nCounter were approximately 6,520 as of December 2022, representing an increase of approximately 1,320 publications in the last 12 months

Preliminary Financial Results

  • For the fourth quarter of 2022, product and service revenue is expected to be over $34 million, within our guidance range of $33 to $35 million
  • For the full year 2022, product and service revenue is expected to be approximately $127 million, within our guidance range of $125 to $127 million
  • As of December 31, 2022, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments is expected to total more than $195 million

These preliminary results are based on management's initial analysis of operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022 and are subject to further internal review and audit by the company's external auditors.
