Total net sales increased $1.0 million, or 18.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared with the same period last year. This increase was driven primarily by higher novel therapies sales related to a NRE development milestone for a large pharmaceutical customer, clinical product sales for an expanded pipeline, and increases in average selling prices for our products. Our domestic core business grew by 8.7%, and was impacted by supply chain issues and labor shortages which created backorders estimated to be $0.3 million that are not included in the reported net sales number. The increase in domestic core demand inclusive of backorders was attributed to volume growth driven by SCIg market growth and label expansions. We define backorders as any non-cancellable open order not shipped before promised delivery date net of rebates, discounts, and other fees. Backorders are expected to be cleared in the third quarter of 2022. International net sales were $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, up 10.7% compared with the same period last year due to volume growth in several European markets driven by key tender wins.

Gross profit increased $0.14 million or 4.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021, while gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased by 700 basis points to 51.1%. The decline in the gross profit percent was primarily caused by the accelerated amortization of manufacturing variances in the quarter, due to lower levels of finished goods inventory. This accounting treatment contributed 380 basis points to the reduction and we believe it is a non-recurring event. In addition, the gross profit percent was impacted by manufacturing variances due to supply chain issues in the first quarter of 2022, amortized in the current period. Further contributing to the lower gross profit percent were higher NRE revenues, which are lower gross margin, and a nominal impact from an increase in average selling prices, partially offsetting the aforementioned unfavorable impacts.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2022 were $7.0 million, compared to $4.6 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in operating expenses is due to strategic investments in research and development, and new hires to support business development, commercialization, quality and regulatory capabilities.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $2.9 million, or $(0.07) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.1 million, or ($0.03) per diluted share for the same period of 2021. Net loss included a tax benefit of $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2022. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted diluted earnings per share was ($0.06) compared to ($0.02) in the same period of 2021.

Cash and cash equivalents were $18.3 million as of June 30, 2022.

Assumptions and Outlook for Full Year 2022

KORU Medical's outlook for full year 2022 reflects numerous assumptions that could affect its business, based on the information management has as of this date, which includes assumptions regarding the continued recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic related to new SCIg patient starts, SCIg market growth rate in the high single digits, plasma supply, clinical trial activity and expansion of the novel therapies pipeline, inflationary impact (including labor and supply price increases), supply chain and labor shortage impacts, timely receipt of equipment financing and credits and planned inventory reductions by year end 2022. Management will discuss its outlook and several of its assumptions on its second quarter 2022 earnings call.

KORU Medical now expects full year 2022 revenue to be in the range of $27.0 to $27.5 million (previously $26.5 to $27.0 million).

The Company expects to exit the year with a 55-60% gross margin updated from prior guidance of 60%. Supply chain disruptions and labor shortages resulted in unfavorable manufacturing variances in the second quarter of 2022, but are expected to improve in the second half of the year. Transfer of finished goods manufacturing to our third party contract manufacturing source is now expected in Q1 2023 (previously Q4 2022).

The Company is updating its guidance to include a minimum cash balance of $16.0 million for year end 2022.

The Company has no further updates to prior guidance.

Conference Call and Webcast Details

The Company will host a live conference call and webcast to discuss these results and provide a corporate update on Wednesday, August 3, 2022, at 4:30 PM ET.

Reorganization Charges. We have excluded the effect of reorganization charges in calculating our non-GAAP measures. In 2021 we incurred significant expenses in connection with the departure and replacement of our chief executive officer and the recruiting of two new board members, which we would not have otherwise incurred in periods presented as part of our continuing operations. In 2022 we incurred further severance expense related to the reorganization of the leadership team and the departure of our chief financial officer, which we would not have otherwise incurred in periods presented as part of continuing operations.

Manufacturing Initiative Expenses. We have excluded the effect of expenses related to creating manufacturing efficiencies, in calculating our non-GAAP measures. We incurred expenses in connection with these initiatives which we would not have otherwise incurred in periods presented as part of our continuing operations. We expect to incur related expenses for the next six to nine months.

Stock-based Compensation Expense. We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense in calculating our non-GAAP measures. We record non-cash compensation expense related to grants of options for executives, employees and consultants, and grants of restricted shares to our board of directors. Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of the grants, the non-cash compensation expense may vary significantly but will recur in future periods.
