Finalizing Commercial Readiness for Expected Full Commercial Launch by the End of Q1 2024

Releases Full Year 2024 Financial Guidance

Quantum-Si Incorporated (Nasdaq: QSI) (“Quantum-Si,” “QSI” or the “Company”), The Protein Sequencing CompanyTM, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

Press Release Highlights

  • Recorded revenue of $400,000 in the fourth quarter of 2023 as the Company continued its previously communicated controlled commercial launch of its Platinum® instrument
  • Finalizing commercial readiness for expected full commercial launch by the end of Q1 2024
  • Launched version 2 of its sequencing kit in early February 2024 and has begun shipping to customers
  • Announced the Company’s third international distribution partner, TOMY Digital Biology Co. Ltd., based in Japan
  • Announced the planned release of a version 3 of its sequencing kit by the end of Q3 2024
  • Provides full year 2024 financial guidance

“We made great progress in the fourth quarter of 2023 and are seeing the early results of that work now, including the launch of our version 2 sequencing kit in early February 2024, significant progress on scaling up our commercial resources, and the addition of our third distributor to our international network”, said Jeff Hawkins, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quantum-Si. “We are pleased with our ability to launch the version 2 sequencing kit well within the previously provided timeline. We are excited about the acceleration we are seeing in our R&D pipeline and believe we are in a strong position to deliver a steady cadence of product enhancements and new capabilities to the market in 2024 and beyond. A version 3 of our sequencing kit is under development now and we expect to deliver it to the market by the end of Q3 2024. We are also making solid progress across library prep and instrument development programs that we believe will fuel the future growth of the Company for years to come.”

Hawkins continued, “With all the progress that we have made over the last year, coupled with finalizing our commercialization readiness, I am pleased to announce that we expect to commence our full commercial launch of our Platinum® instrument by the end of Q1 2024. We have also released full year 2024 financial guidance.”

Fourth Quarter 2023 and Full Year 2023 Financial Results

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company continued its controlled commercial launch of its Platinum instrument, recording revenue of $400,000. Gross profit was $178,000 and gross margin was 45%. For the full year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded revenue of $1.1 million, gross profit of $488,000, and gross margin of 45%. The periodic gross margin rate is expected to be variable in the near term as the Company works through the initial stages of commercialization as well as the timing and mix of product sales between instruments and consumable kits.

Total operating expenses were $28.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $38.8 million for the same period in the prior year, and $111.7 million for the full year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $123.8 million for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted total operating expenses were $26.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $25.3 million for the same period in the prior year, and adjusted total operating expenses for the full year ended December 31, 2023, were $98.9 million compared to $103.2 million for the same period in the prior year. Overall adjusted operating expenses for 2023 compared to 2022 have decreased as the Company focused on deploying capital in an efficient manner to R&D projects while still building commercial capabilities.

Net loss was $22.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to a net loss of $33.1 million in the same period of the prior year, and a net loss of $96.0 million for the full year ended December 31, 2023, compared to a net loss of $132.4 million for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $25.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to negative $24.5 million in the same period of the prior year, and negative $94.3 million for the full year ended December 31, 2023, compared to negative $100.6 million for the same period in the prior year. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures, adjusted total operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA, is provided in a table included in this press release.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities were $257.7 million.

2024 Financial Guidance

For the full year 2024, the Company provided the following financial guidance:

Revenue $3.7 - $4.2 million
Adjusted total operating expenses Less than $103 million
Total cash usage Less than $100 million

The Company also maintains the expectation that the balance in cash and cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities of $257.7 million as of December 31, 2023 will provide a runway into 2026.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release presents the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted total operating expenses” and “adjusted EBITDA.” The most directly comparable measures for these non-GAAP financial measures are total operating expenses and net loss. The Company has included below adjusted total operating expenses, which presents the Company’s total operating expenses after excluding goodwill impairment, stock-based compensation and restructuring costs. In addition, adjusted EBITDA further excludes interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, dividend income, unrealized and realized gains and losses on marketable securities, changes in fair value of warrant liabilities and other income or expense.

A discussion of the reasons why management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is included as Exhibit 99.2 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 29, 2024.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The actual results of the Company may differ from its expectations, estimates, and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as "expect," "estimate," "project," "budget," "forecast," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "may," "will," "could," "should," "believes," "predicts," "potential," "continue," and similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company's expectations with respect to future performance and development and commercialization of products and services, its anticipated cash runway and its financial guidance for the full year 2024. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside the Company's control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the inability to maintain the listing of the Company's Class A common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market; the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; the Company’s ongoing leadership transitions; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the ability of the Company to raise financing in the future; the success, cost and timing of the Company's product development and commercialization activities; the commercialization and adoption of the Company’s existing products and the success of any product the Company may offer in the future; the potential attributes and benefits of the Company’s commercialized Platinum™ protein sequencing instrument and kits and the Company’s other products once commercialized; the Company's ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval for its products, and any related restrictions and limitations of any approved product; the Company's ability to identify, in-license or acquire additional technology; the Company's ability to maintain its existing lease, license, manufacture and supply agreements; the Company's ability to compete with other companies currently marketing or engaged in the development or commercialization of products and services that serve customers engaged in proteomic analysis, many of which have greater financial and marketing resources than the Company; the size and growth potential of the markets for the Company's products and services, and its ability to serve those markets once commercialized, either alone or in partnership with others; the Company's estimates regarding future expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and needs for additional financing; the Company's financial performance; and other risks and uncertainties described under "Risk Factors" in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in the Company's other filings with the SEC. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
