Nephros Announces Results for Quarter Ended September 30, 2022

Third-Quarter Net Revenue of $2.4 Million;
Active Customer Sites Increase 18% YoY to a New Record Level

SOUTH ORANGE, NJ - (NewMediaWire) - November 02, 2022 - Nephros, Inc. (Nasdaq: NEPH), a leading water technology company providing filtration solutions to the medical and commercial markets, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Financial Highlights

Water Filtration Business Segment Highlights*

·       Net revenue from continuing operations of $2.4 million, a decrease of 7%

·       Net loss from continuing operations of $1.1 million, compared to $0.7 million

·       Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations of ($0.2 million), compared with ($0.3 million)

Consolidated Highlights*

·       Net revenue from continuing operations of $2.4 million, a decrease of 7%

·       Net loss from continuing operations of $1.3 million, compared to $0.8 million

·       Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations of ($0.3 million), compared to ($0.4 million)

 

*Stated performance is relative to same period prior year (third quarter of 2021)

Andy Astor, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “Our third-quarter revenue was not at the level we anticipated, representing a decrease of 7% year-over-year. A significant contributor to the revenue growth shortfall was approximately $300,000 of price increase-related pull-ahead business in Q2.”

Mr. Astor continued, “Of promising note, Active Customer Sites (ACS) grew to a record 1,391, a year-over-year increase of 18%. Our work to expand domestic sales coverage will support further growth and development of our customer base. Additionally, we agreed to sell our Pathogen Detection Systems (PDS) business to maximize its value and reduce near-term expenses by approximately $300,000 per quarter. This strategic action bolsters our financial position and offers the potential for new future revenue with a profit-sharing provision. Overall, we believe our cash position stands in good condition with no need to raise capital in the foreseeable future, and we remain confident in our capacity to attain positive cash flow by mid-2023.

Consolidated Financial Performance for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2022

Net revenue from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, was $2.4 million, compared to $2.6 million in the corresponding period in 2021, a decrease of 7%.

Net loss from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, was $1.3 million, compared to $0.8 million during the same period in 2021. The increase in net loss from continuing operations was driven by changes to inventory reserve estimates.

Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, was ($0.3 million), compared to ($0.4 million) during the same period in 2021.

Cost of goods sold for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 was $1.6 million, compared with $1.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 35%. Gross margins for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 were 32%, compared with 53% in the same period in 2021. The increase in cost of goods sold and decrease in gross margin were driven primarily by a non-recurring charge of approximately $600,000 associated with slow-moving inventory management estimates.

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 were $0.3 million, compared with $0.4 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 were approximately $48,000, compared with approximately $49,000 for the corresponding period 2021.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 were flat from the same period in 2021 at $1.7 million.

As of September 30, 2022, Nephros had cash and cash equivalents of $3.9 million on a consolidated basis, compared with $4.2 million at the end of the second quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA Definition and Reconciliation to GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations is calculated by taking net loss from continuing operations calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and excluding all interest-related expenses and income, tax-related expenses and income, non-recurring expenses and income, and non-cash items, including depreciation, amortization and non-cash compensation. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations to net loss from continuing operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the third quarter of the 2022 and 2021 fiscal years for both the Nephros Water Filtration Business Segment and consolidated results:

Nephros believes that Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Nephros’ financial condition and results of operations. Management does not consider Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recognized in Nephros’ consolidated financial statements. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations in connection with net loss from continuing operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Nephros urges investors to review the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA loss from continuing operations to net loss from continuing operations and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the business.
