GeneDx to host conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET

STAMFORD, Conn., April 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GeneDx Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: WGS), a leader in delivering improved health outcomes through genomic insights, today reported its financial results for the first quarter of 2024.

“Our strong first quarter results reflect our continued dedication to our three key organizational focuses: growing exome and genome revenue, increasing our average reimbursement rates while expanding access to testing, and meaningfully reducing our cash burn,” said Katherine Stueland, Chief Executive Officer of GeneDx. “Our team’s successful execution in the first quarter gives us the confidence to raise full year 2024 revenue guidance to between $235-$245 million and reiterate our expectation to reach profitability in 2025.”

  1. Revenue and gross margin results from continuing operations, which we believe are representative of our ongoing business strategy exclude any revenue and cost of goods sold of the exited Legacy Sema4 diagnostic testing business for the current and all comparative periods. Total company results include GeneDx’s continuing operations and the financial impacts of exited Legacy Sema4 business activities for the current and all comparative periods.
  2. Adjusted gross margin, adjusted total operating expenses and adjusted net loss are non-GAAP financial measures. See appendix for a reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP figures presented.

Updated GeneDx Full Year 2024 Guidance

GeneDx has updated its full year 2024 guidance. Management expects GeneDx to:

  • Drive full year 2024 revenues between $235 and $245 million (previous guidance was $220 to $230 million);
  • Expand full year 2024 adjusted gross margin profile to at least 60% (previous guidance was at least 50%);
  • Use $70 to $80 million of net cash for full year 2024 (previous guidance was $75 to $80 million);
  • Turn profitable in 2025 (no change).

First Quarter 2024 Business Highlights

Driving sustainable growth and market leadership

  • Reached new milestone of sequencing 600k clinical exomes and genomes since inception, with over half sequenced since July 2021 and 100k sequenced since the fall. This continued acceleration of exome and genome sequencing and interpretation further solidifies GeneDx’s industry leadership, enhances the robustness of its proprietary dataset, and enables more definitive diagnoses for more patients.
  • Presented new data at the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics Annual Meeting further demonstrating the clinical superiority of exome compared to chromosomal microarray (“CMA”), supporting our efforts to eliminate the need for CMA to be ordered when exome is ordered first.
  • State Medicaid programs continue to expand coverage of rapid genetic testing in the neonatal intensive care unit (“NICU”), bringing total states covering rapid whole genome in the acute care setting to 11, including new coverage announced in:
    • Georgia (January 2024)
    • South Dakota (March 2024)
  • New York added outpatient whole exome sequencing (“WES”) coverage to their Medicaid plan, effective April 1, 2024, bringing total states covering WES to 28.
  • Grew biopharma partner programs to 21, predominantly with biotech companies who are relying on us to find patients with a specific variant for clinical trial purposes.
  • Launched a strategic partnership with Komodo Health, a premier healthcare technology company for the pharmaceutical industry, enabling improved access to genetic insights that can help inform drug pipelines and accelerate clinical trial enrollment for biopharma partners.
