Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue for the second quarter of 2022 was $30.0 million, representing an increase of 45% compared to $20.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by an increased number of Lapiplasty® procedure kits sold as a result of an expanded surgeon customer base, increased surgeon utilization and increased blended average selling prices due to increased adoption of our newer technologies and expanding product line.Gross profit for the second quarter of 2022 was $24.3 million, compared to a gross profit of $16.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. Gross margin increased to 81.1% in the second quarter of 2022, compared to 80.9% in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to an increase in revenue and volume efficiencies.
Total operating expenses were $36.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, including sales and marketing (S&M) expenses of $26.2 million, research and development (R&D) expenses of $3.0 million, and general and administrative (G&A) expenses of $7.0 million. This compared to total operating expenses of $20.7 million, including S&M expenses of $14.0 million, R&D expenses of $2.4 million, and G&A expenses of $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2021. Expenses in the second quarter of 2022 reflect increased investments in our commercial initiatives as well as other G&A investments supporting our growing business.
Second quarter net loss attributable to common stockholders was ($17.2) million, or ($0.31) per share, compared to ($5.1) million, or ($0.10) per share, for the same period of 2021. Adjusted Net Loss, which is net loss attributable to common stockholders excluding the debt extinguishment loss of $4.5 million, or ($0.08) per share, was ($12.8) million, or ($0.23) per share. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of ($9.4) million in the second quarter, compared to a loss of ($3.1) million for the same period in 2021. See below for additional information and a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information.
Cash and cash equivalents were $101.5 million as of June 30, 2022. On May 2, 2022, the Company announced a refinancing of its existing debt for a new, five-year $150 million loan arrangement that includes up to a $120 million term loan and a $30 million revolving credit facility. Upon the closing of the new loan agreements, the Company drew $54 million and paid off its $30 million in long-term debt outstanding. The Company believes its cash and the new debt facilities provide sufficient liquidity to fund planned commercial, market and product development initiatives into profitability.
Financial Outlook
Treace is raising its full-year 2022 revenue guidance to $130 million to $134 million, which represents approximately 38% to 42% growth over the Company’s 2021 revenue. This compares to the prior revenue guidance of $128 million to $133 million.Webcast and Conference Call Details

To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this earnings release presents Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net loss before depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, interest expense, taxes and debt extinguishment loss. This earnings release also presents net loss attributable to common stockholders excluding the debt extinguishment loss on an aggregate and per share basis (“Adjusted Net Loss”). Non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss are presented in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and trends, as well as for making planning decisions. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss help to identify underlying trends in the Company’s business that may otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses and other items that it excludes in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss. Accordingly, the Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by the Company’s management in their financial and operational decision-making. The Company also presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes investors, analysts and rating agencies consider them to be a useful metrics in measuring the Company’s performance against other companies and its ability to meet its debt service obligations.There are limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss 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 below.
