Michael K. McGarrity, CEO of MDxHealth,
commented: “While
2021 presented
continued headwinds
related to the pandemic and its continued effect on patient
flow for our particular patient population in prostate cancer,
we have made significant progress
and we believe our results provide
evidence that MDxHealth will
emerge
from this challenging period
with strong and sustainable
growth.
“We believe this progress is evidenced by the
following:
- Publication of
draft foundational Local Coverage Determination (LCD) for
Biomarkers to Stratify Patients at Increased Risk for Prostate
Cancer by Palmetto GBA under its MolDx program, which cites
evidence of the clinical utility of SelectMDx® and, when finalized,
is expected to support coverage for qualified Medicare patients
throughout the United States;
- Improvement in
cash collections and capital allocation, driven by continued focus
on operating discipline;
- Advancement of
development programs to expand our prostate cancer menu into Active
Surveillance;
- Introduction of
novel Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) testing services into our
urology channel which we are confident will contribute to our total
revenue in 2022.”

Total revenue for 2021 was $22.2 million, an
increase of 20% as compared to total revenue of $18.5 million for
2020. Services revenue amounted to $21.9 million, an increase of
21% as compared to $18.1 million a year earlier. Revenue from
ConfirmMDx represented over 90% of services revenue for all
periods.
Gross profit for 2021 was $10.6 million as
compared to $8.0 million for 2020. Gross margins were 47.5% for
2021 as compared to 43.6% for 2020, representing a gross margin
improvement of 390 basis points, primarily related to a higher
average selling price (ASP).
Operating expenses for 2021 were $37.4 million,
up 6% from $35.2 million for 2020. Excluding non-cash expenses such
as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation,
operating expenses for 2021 were $33.1 million, an increase of 10%
over 2020, primarily driven by R&D expenses related to our
future product pipeline.
Operating loss and net loss for 2021 were $26.8
million and $29.0 million, respectively, substantially flat
compared to $27.1 million and $28.7 million, respectively, for
2020.
Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31,
2021 were $58.5 million, strengthened by gross proceeds from the
January equity raise of €25 million (approximately $30 million) and
the November NASDAQ IPO of $45 million. Total cash collections
amounted to $21.5 million during 2021, an increase of 1% compared
to 2020. Cash burn for 2021 was $26.8 million compared to $21.9
million in the prior year period.
Outlook for
2022
Michael K. McGarrity, CEO of MDxHealth,
commented: “Even amidst the dynamics of the pandemic’s
impact on patient visits, we anticipate a return of patient flow
and continued adoption of SelectMDx and ConfirmMDx, which are
emerging as the standard of care in the diagnostic pathway of
patients at risk for prostate cancer. We believe that these tests
will take hold and drive growth into and beyond 2022.
In addition, we are developing solutions for
active surveillance (AS) of prostate cancer with our AS-MDx and
Monitor-MDx tests. These menu additions would provide clinically
actionable results for urologists evaluating cancer patients
considered for active surveillance, as well as regular monitoring
of these patients where the current standard of care is an invasive
and costly annual biopsy. This is a well-characterized market where
urologist are seeking a less invasive actionable solution.
We believe these initiatives, coupled with our
current menu, will position MDxHealth to be the market leader in
providing urologists with advanced diagnostics to support a patient
from an elevated PSA through the diagnostic continuum of care with
increased clinical insight and confidence.
Finally, we are encouraged by the initial
introduction of novel molecular UTI testing services into our
focused urology channel. The market for UTI testing is
well-defined, with urologists accounting for approximately 20% of
the 10 million UTI tests ordered annually in the U.S.”
Based on these catalysts for growth, MDxHealth
is providing the following guidance, with growth in 2022 driven
by:
- Issuance of a
final LCD for the SelectMDx test, supporting additional coverage
from commercial payers and contributing to both revenue and gross
margin growth in the second half of 2022;
- Achieving full
year 2022 revenue of $25 million to $27 million, representing
growth of 13%-21% over full year 2021 revenue of $22.2
million.
