February 23, 2022

IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inari Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: NARI) (“Inari”), a medical device company with a mission to treat and transform the lives of patients suffering from venous and other diseases, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021.

Fourth Quarter Revenue and Business Highlights:

  • Treated 7,700 patients, an increase of 15% over the third quarter. Over 90% of overall procedures and sequential procedural growth came from non-COVID patients.
  • Generated revenue of $83.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, up 14% sequentially and 71% over the same quarter last year, and finished full year 2021 with revenue of $277 million, a 98% increase over full year 2020.
  • Enrolled the first patient into our PEERLESS randomized controlled trial in PE, enrolled the 800th and final patient into the U.S. arm of the FLASH PE registry and enrolled the 500th and final patient into the CLOUT DVT registry.
  • Ended 2021 with over 200 U.S. sales territories.
  • Ended the quarter with $180.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments.

“Our fourth quarter was again successful and productive. We treated 1,000 more patients than in the third quarter and made significant progress on all of our growth drivers,” said Bill Hoffman CEO of Inari Medical. “We are especially pleased with the milestones we achieved on several clinical studies. Most notably, we enrolled our first patient into our PEERLESS randomized controlled trial. In addition, we completed enrollment in both the CLOUT registry and the U.S. arm of our FLASH registry, the largest prospective thrombectomy trials ever conducted in DVT and PE. We love every second of this work and we remain thankful for the opportunity to serve our patients and our mission.”

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Revenue was $83.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $72.9 million for the prior quarter and $48.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase over prior quarter was driven by continued U.S. commercial expansion and new product introductions.

Gross profit was $74.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $44.9 million for the same period of 2020. Gross margin was 90.1% for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 92.4% for the same period in the prior year, modestly lower primarily due to the move to our larger production facility in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $73.2 million, compared to $37.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase was mainly driven by an increase in personnel-related expenses as we increased headcount to fund the expansion of the commercial, research and development, and clinical and support organizations.

Net income was $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 and net income per share was $0.02 on a weighted-average basic share count of 50.2 million and $0.02 on a weighted average diluted share count of 55.6 million, compared to a net income of $7.0 million and a net income per share of $0.14 and $0.13 on a weighted-average basic share count of 48.7 million and diluted share count of 55.2 million, respectively, in the same period of the prior year.

Full Year 2021 Financial Results
Revenue was $277.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $139.7 million in the prior year. The increase over prior year was driven by our continued U.S. commercial expansion and new product introductions.

Gross profit was $252.2 million for the full year of 2021, compared to $126.6 million for the same period of 2020. Gross margin increased slightly to 91.1% for the full year of 2021, compared to 90.6% for the prior year.

Operating expenses for the full year of 2021 were $241.4 million, compared to $108.1 million for the full year 2020.

Net income was $9.8 million for the full year of 2021 and net income per share was $0.20 and 0.18 on a weighted-average basic share count of 49.8 million and 55.6 million, respectively, compared to a net income of $13.8 million and net income per share of $0.43 and $0.27 on a weighted-average basic share count of 32.0 million and diluted share count of 51.6 million, respectively, in the prior year.
