Silk Road Medical Reports First Quarter 2022 Financial Results  



SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 4, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Silk Road Medical, Inc. (Nasdaq: SILK), a company focused on reducing the risk of stroke and its devastating impact, today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022.



“We demonstrated strong execution in the first quarter and remain confident in our ability to drive further TCAR adoption, supplemented by our recent FDA approved label expansion for our stent to include standard surgical risk patients,” said Erica Rogers, CEO of Silk Road Medical. “This approval levels a playing field once dominated by open surgery, allowing an expanded patient population to benefit from our less invasive approach as we establish TCAR as the new standard of care in stroke prevention.”



First Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue for the first quarter of 2022 was $28.0 million, an increase of $6.0 million or 27%, compared to the first quarter of 2021. Growth was driven primarily by growing TCAR adoption.



Gross profit for the first quarter of 2022 was $19.4 million compared to $16.5 million for the first quarter of 2021. Gross margin for the first quarter of 2022 decreased to 69% compared to 75% for the first quarter of 2021. Gross margin was primarily impacted by unfavorable production variances due to impacts from COVID-19 as well as manufacturing expansion costs in Minnesota.



Operating expenses were $35.4 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to $26.7 million in the comparable prior year period, which represents an increase of 33%. The increase was driven by increased headcount in our commercial and R&D organizations, along with continued investments in new and ongoing R&D programs.



Net loss was $16.7 million in the first quarter of 2022, or $0.48 per share, as compared to a loss of $10.7 million, or $0.31 per share, in the corresponding period of the prior year.



Cash and cash equivalents were $93.6 million as of March 31, 2022.



2022 Financial Guidance
Silk Road Medical projects revenue for the full year 2022 to range from $127 million to $132 million, which represents 25% to 30% growth over the company’s prior year revenue.

Silk Road Medical will host a conference call at 1:30 p.m. PT / 4:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday, May 4, 2022, to discuss its first quarter 2022 financial results.
