Fulgent Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results
TEMPLE CITY, CA, February 28, 2023 — Fulgent Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLGT) (“Fulgent”, or the “Company”), a technology-based company with a well-established clinical diagnostic business and a therapeutic development business, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Results:
Full Year 2022 Results:
Note:
Non-GAAP income (loss), non-GAAP income (loss) per share, and adjusted EBITDA income (loss) are described below under “Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, GAAP income (loss), in the accompanying tables.
Ming Hsieh, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, said, “2022 was a transitional and transformative year for Fulgent, as we integrated the acquisitions of Inform Diagnostics and CSI Laboratories and acquired the Pharma business. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a lesser impact, we are excited about the growth and momentum in our core business, with strength across our 3 business areas - precision diagnostics, anatomic pathology and pharma services - and momentum in oncology and reproductive health, particularly with the expansion of oncologic carrier screening through Beacon787, also announced today. We have reorganized our Board of Directors and are on the path to transforming Fulgent from a genomic diagnostic service business into a fully integrated precision medicine company, focusing on oncology. In the meantime, we have a long runway of
opportunity in the core business and see diagnostics as a dependable source of revenue and growth for Fulgent in the years ahead.”
Paul Kim, Chief Financial Officer, said, “We are pleased with our results in 2022 and the trajectory of our core business. While the revenue profile of the Company without COVID testing revenue has implications for our bottom line, I believe we are poised for sustainable growth in the core business and to continue to generate cash. We are well positioned to execute our strategy while maintaining flexibility to capitalize on additional acquisition and strategic investment opportunities in the future.”
Outlook:
For the first quarter of 2023, Fulgent expects:
For the full year 2023, Fulgent expects:
Conference Call Information
Fulgent will host a conference call for the investment community today at 4:30 PM ET (1:30 PM PT) to discuss its fourth quarter and full year 2022 results. The call may be accessed through a live audio webcast in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website, http://ir.fulgentgenetics.com. An audio replay will be available at the same location.
Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain information set forth in this press release, including non-GAAP income (loss), non-GAAP income (loss) per share, and adjusted EBITDA income (loss) are non-GAAP financial measures. Fulgent believes this information is useful to investors because it provides a basis for measuring the performance of the Company’s business, excluding certain income or expense items that management believes are not directly attributable to the Company’s operating results. Fulgent defines non-GAAP income (loss) as net income (loss) calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, plus amortization of intangible assets, plus restructuring costs, plus acquisition-related costs, including banking fees and legal fees associated with the recent acquisitions, plus equity-based compensation expense, plus or minus the non-GAAP tax effect, and plus or minus other charges or gains, as identified, that management believes are not representative of the Company’s operations. The non-GAAP tax effect is calculated by applying the statutory corporate tax rate on the amortization of intangible assets, restructuring costs, acquisition-related costs, and equity-based compensation expense. Fulgent defines adjusted EBITDA income (loss) as GAAP income (loss) plus or minus interest (expense) income, plus or minus provisions (benefits) for income taxes, plus restructuring costs, plus acquisition-related costs, plus equity-based compensation expense, plus depreciation and amortization, and plus or minus other charges or gains, as identified, that management believes are not representative of the Company’s operations. Fulgent may continue to incur expenses similar to the items added to or subtracted from GAAP income (loss) to calculate non-GAAP income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA income (loss); accordingly, the exclusion of these items in the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an implication that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) in evaluating the Company's operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in
conformity with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as reported by Fulgent may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics reported by other companies.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which may cause the forward-looking events and circumstances described in this press release to not occur, and actual results to differ materially and adversely from those described in or implied by the forward-looking statements.
