(Nasdaq: OM) (“Outset” or the “Company”), a medical technology company pioneering a first-of-its-kind technology to reduce the cost and complexity of dialysis, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.
Fourth Quarter, Year-End Results, and Recent Highlights
•Recorded net revenue of $30.5 million in the fourth quarter, bringing 2023 revenue to $130.4 million, a 13% increase compared to $115.4 million in 2022.
•Increased gross margin in the fourth quarter by nearly 900 basis points from the prior-year period. Fourth quarter gross margin reached 25.3% (26.7% on a non-GAAP basis) compared to 16.5% (17.1% on a non-GAAP basis) in the fourth quarter of 2022. Gross margin for the full year was 22.2% (23.6% on a non-GAAP basis) compared to 15.5% (16.1% on a non-GAAP basis) in 2022.
•As previously reported, recurring revenue consisting of Tablo consumables and services, exceeded 50% of total revenue in 2023, and the Tablo installed base reached 5,350 consoles exiting 2023, including approximately 4,050 with acute- and sub-acute care providers and 1,300 with home providers.
“As we announced in January, our results for the fourth quarter and full year reflect the scale we have built in the acute setting and progress we are making to expand Tablo’s use at home, with our growth in both end markets contributing to a 34% increase in the Tablo installed base and nearly 50% growth in consumable revenue,” said Leslie Trigg, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Outset. “We exited 2023 with a record 50% recurring revenue, fourth-quarter gross margin expanding nearly 9 percentage points, and a strong balance sheet to continue to fund our growth. We are proud of the difference Tablo and our team made in 2023 to help providers save substantially on the cost to deliver life-sustaining dialysis, and patients regain control that has been historically lost with their diagnosis.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company may report non-GAAP results for gross profit/loss, gross margin, operating expenses, operating margins, net income/loss, basic and diluted net income/loss per share, other income/loss, and cash flows. These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s financial measures under GAAP include stock-based compensation expense, as listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release. Management has excluded the effects of this non-cash expense item in non-GAAP measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance and period-to-period comparisons. There are limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may exclude significant expenses required by GAAP to be recognized in the Company’s financial statements, and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are presented in the Appendix A of this press release.
