Post# of 301275
MENLO PARK, Calif., Feb. 02, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. (NASDAQ: PACB ) today announced financial results for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2016.
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2016 totaled $25.7 million, compared to $36.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. Product and service revenue for the fourth quarter of 2016 increased 92.2% to $24.4 million, compared to $12.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. Contractual revenue for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $1.3 million, reflecting the remaining $1.3 million of amortization of the upfront payment recognizable upon the termination of the Company’s development, commercialization and license agreement with F. Hoffman-La Roche Ltd in December 2016. Contractual revenue for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $23.6 million, reflecting $20.0 million of milestone revenue from Roche and $3.6 million of quarterly amortization of the upfront Roche payment.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $11.4 million, resulting in a gross margin of 44.2%, compared to gross profit of $26.5 million and a gross margin of 72.9% for the fourth quarter of 2015. The gross profit and margin for the fourth quarter of 2015 was primarily driven by the $20.0 million revenue milestone from Roche, which had a 100% gross margin. Excluding this milestone revenue, gross profit and gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2016 increased significantly over the same period in 2015 primarily as a result of the higher margin sales of the Company’s Sequel TM System which was launched in the fourth quarter of 2015.
Operating expenses totaled $29.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2016, compared to $27.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. Operating expenses for the fourth quarters of 2016 and 2015 included non-cash stock-based compensation of $4.3 million and $3.6 million, respectively.
The net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $19.0 million, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015.
Cash, cash equivalents and investments, excluding restricted cash, at December 31, 2016 totaled $72.0 million, compared to $82.3 million at December 31, 2015.
