IRVINE, Calif., May 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cryoport, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYRX, CYRXW), the world's leading cryogenic logistics company dedicated to the life sciences industry, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Cryoport, Inc.

"2017 began with strong momentum as we are reporting robust year-over-year revenue growth of 74%," commented Jerrell Shelton, Cryoport, Inc.'s Chief Executive Officer. "The quarter's results were driven by extraordinary growth in our core business of providing cold chain logistics solutions to biopharma clients, which saw revenue grow 100% year-over-year and 31% sequentially. Our sales and marketing team continues to make excellent progress expanding our footprint as we secured 27 new clients and 14 new clinical trial programs, further strengthening our pipeline."

"Cryoport's success is being mainly fueled by growth in the regenerative medicine market, where the advancement of CAR T-cell therapies is revolutionizing treatment options for a multitude of health issues, including cancers, congenital diseases and trauma. These therapies rely on our state-of-the-art cryogenic logistic solutions as the only effective method of maintaining efficacy when they are transported and stored, making Cryoport a strategic concern in the design and implementation of clinical trials and the delivery of commercial products. With our stronger balance sheet, we are now well-capitalized to scale our solutions as more regenerative medicines approach commercialization and require significantly more logistics support and services. With the first two CAR T-cell therapies expected to receive FDA approval this year to commence commercial sales, the opportunity to build significant value for Cryoport's shareholders is obvious," continued Mr. Shelton.

Mr. Shelton concluded, "Biopharma revenue now accounts for 75% of total revenues and remains our largest growth opportunity; however, I am also pleased to report strength across all Cryoport's markets. Reproductive medicine revenue increased 26% year-over-year driven by strong domestic demand. Animal health revenue increased 28% year-over-year as we on-boarded new clients. Our strong start for 2017 is just the beginning of the tremendous opportunity ahead of us, as we enter this pivotal stage in our development."

CryoPort Realtime-Chart
  • Biopharma revenue increased by 100% compared to the prior year quarter
  • 27 new Biopharma clients and 14 new clinical trial programs, which added to our robust pipeline during the first three months of 2017
  • 139 clinical trials are now being supported by Cryoport, with 17 in Phase III

Reproductive Medicine

  • Reproductive Medicine revenue increased by 26% for the first quarter compared to the same quarter last year, led by a 52% increase in the U.S. market, which was partially offset by a decline in international revenue of 12%. International revenue continues to be impacted by the restriction of reproductive tourism in certain countries.

Animal Health

  • Driven by new client additions, revenue from the Animal Health market was up 28% in the first quarter compared to the same quarter last year.

Overall Financial Results:

  • Revenue increased 74% to $2.7 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared with the same period in the prior year. This growth was driven by an overall increase in our number of clients, complemented by annual pricing adjustments and expansion from current clients.
  • Gross margin for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 was 46% compared to 37% for the same three-month period in the prior year, driven by increased business volume, pricing adjustments and cost controls.
  • Operating costs and expenses decreased by $183,000 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 due to lower non-cash stock compensation expenses, salaries and associated employee costs and expense control.
  • GAAP net loss for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $1.8 million, down 34% compared to $2.7 million in the same three-month period in the prior year. GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $1.8 million, or $0.10 per share, compared with $2.8 million, or $0.26 per share, in the same three-month period in the prior year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 was ($867,000), a reduction of 51% compared to ($1.8 million) in the same three-month period in the prior year.
  • The Company reported $14.5 million in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2017, compared to $4.5 million as of Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2016. The increase in cash includes net proceeds of $11.4 million received from an underwritten public offering on March 31, 2017.
