2022 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Expected at Upper End of Guidance
Biote (NASDAQ: BTMD), a leading provider of preventive health care through the delivery of personalized hormone therapy, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Third Quarter Highlights:
- Revenue of $42.0 million, an 18% increase year over year.
- Net loss of $(6.3) million and fully diluted GAAP EPS of $(1.74). Net loss and fully diluted GAAP EPS reflected the impact of transaction-related and other non-operating expenses.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $12.2 million, a 19% increase year over year.1
- Management expects to achieve the upper end of the guidance ranges for 2022 revenue of $160-$166 million and adjusted EBITDA of $47-$51 million.
- Sales force expansion remains on track, consistent with the Company’s growth strategy.
- Strengthened executive management team.
“We believe Biote’s strong third quarter performance reflects our success in expanding our clinic and practitioner network, as we build our brand in existing geographies and expand into new ones. Despite hurricane-related clinic closures in Florida and Puerto Rico, two of our key markets, Biote generated an 18% increase in year over year revenue and a 19% increase in year over year Adjusted EBITDA,” said Biote Chief Executive Officer Terry Weber. “The expansion of our sales team remains on track and continues to open up new growth opportunities as we broaden awareness of the benefits of hormone optimization therapies among both the medical community and consumers. In light of our strong year-to-date financial results, Biote remains on pace to deliver accelerated growth in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for 2022.”

2022 Third Quarter Financial Review
Revenue for the third quarter of 2022 was $42.0 million, an increase of 18% from $35.6 million for the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by continued revenue growth of both procedures and dietary supplements, despite weather-related impact in Florida and Puerto Rico.
Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2022 was 68.2% compared to 65.4% for the third quarter of 2021. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to a more favorable product mix.
Operating income for the third quarter of 2022 was $7.8 million a decrease of 13% from $9.0 million in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in operating income was primarily driven by transaction-related costs and certain non-recurring legal expenses of $3.1 million as compared to $1.0 million of such costs in the third quarter of 2021.
Net loss for the third quarter of 2022 was $(6.3) million, compared to net income of $8.5 million for the third quarter of 2021. The net loss was primarily due to the impact of transaction-related and certain non-recurring legal expenses as well as non-operating expenses. These items included: a net change in the fair value adjustments to warrant and earnout liabilities of $12.5 million, as compared to no such impact in the third quarter of 2021 and transaction-related expenses and certain non-recurring legal expenses of $3.1 million as compared to $1.0 million of transaction related expenses in the third quarter of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2022 was $12.2 compared to $10.3 million for the third quarter of 2021. The 19.0% increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by the growth in revenue and improved internal efficiencies, partially offset by operating expense growth that was in line with the overall increase in revenue.1
Cash flow from operations for the third quarter of 2022 was $6.4 million, inclusive of transaction-related expenses and certain non-recurring legal expenses of $2.3 million and a compensation expense of $2 million related to the transaction.
2022 Outlook
“Supported by strong revenue growth, high profitability and our annuity-like business model, Biote remains on track for record sales and Adjusted EBITDA in 2022. We continue to see a significant opportunity for profitable growth and expansion, driven by favorable long-term demographic trends and increased patient demand for affordable, effective health-care solutions,” stated Ms. Weber.
2022 Financial Guidance
Based on the company’s strong year-to-date performance and expectations for the fourth quarter, management expects to achieve the upper end of the Company’s previously issued 2022 financial guidance ranges of $160-$166 million in revenue and $47-$51 million in Adjusted EBITDA.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, Biote has disclosed Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure that it calculates as net (loss) income before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, transaction-related expenses, fair value adjustments to certain equity instruments classified as liabilities and other non-operating costs. Below we have provided a reconciliation of net (loss) income (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) to Adjusted EBITDA.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and determine payments under compensation programs. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:
- Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for assets;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.
In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgment by Biote’s management about which expenses are excluded or included. A reconciliation is provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including net income and our other GAAP results.
