“Our strong financial performance in the second quarter reflected consistent execution across all our growth drivers,” said Drew Hykes, CEO of Inari Medical. “We saw meaningful growth contributions from new product launches as well as international geographies, adding confidence to our 2023 outlook. We announced PEERLESS II, our third randomized controlled trial. These pivotal studies will elevate our therapies to the standard of care and reflect our unwavering commitment to VTE patients.”

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenue was $119.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $92.7 million for the second quarter of 2022 and $116.2 million for the prior quarter. The increase over the prior year quarter was driven primarily by global commercial expansion, increased adoption of our procedures, and introduction of new products.

Gross profit was $105.2 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $82.4 million for the same period of 2022. Gross margin was 88.4% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 88.8% for the same period in the prior year.

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2023 were $106.7 million, compared to $91.7 million for the second quarter of 2022. The increase was mainly driven by personnel-related expenses, including stock-based compensation, as we increased headcount to fund the expansion of the commercial, research and development, clinical, and support organizations.

Net income was $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2023 and net income per share was $0.04 on a weighted-average basic share count of 57.2 million and $0.04 on a weighted-average diluted share count of 58.5 million, respectively, compared to a net loss of $10.2 million and a net loss per share of $0.19 on a weighted-average basic and diluted share count of 53.2 million, in the same period of the prior year.

Full-Year 2023 Revenue Guidance
