Forward Guidance
The company is revising its 2023 full year outlook due to softer than anticipated third quarter results and updated expectations for the balance of the year.
Positive Outlook
- Operating expenses are expected to be approximately $245 million or less, before one-time separation costs and potential savings associated with the Company’s recent reduction in force.
- Capital expenditures are now expected to be in the range of $10 million to $15 million.
- Reduction in force, combined with the elimination of certain open positions, is expected to result in approximately $9.5 million to $10.5 million in cash operating expense savings.
- Additional approximately $1.0 million to $2.0 million in non-cash savings related to previously granted, unvested stock-based compensation which would have vested in 2024.
- Gross profit for the full year, including the positive impact of the Company’s change in accounting estimates for the useful lives of its large manufacturing equipment implemented in the first quarter of 2023, is now expected to be approximately breakeven.
Challenges Ahead
- Net revenues are now expected to be in the range of $330 million to $340 million, representing a decrease of approximately 21% to 19% compared to 2022.
