Harvard Bioscience Announces Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results


  • Q2 Revenues of $28.8 million
  • Q2 GAAP operating income $0.8 million, adjusted operating income $3.6 million
  • Strong H1 operating cash flow drove net debt reduction of $5.4 million

HOLLISTON, Mass., Aug. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Harvard Bioscience, Inc. (Nasdaq: HBIO) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Jim Green, Chairman and CEO said, “We are encouraged by the continuation of a strong start to the fiscal year, with growth from new products and our improved portfolio largely offsetting the revenue from discontinued low margin products that we obsoleted last year.”

Green continued, “New products launched in 2022 demonstrate our ability to leverage our recognized technical leadership in academic research and discovery into industrial applications for CRO, pharma and biotech customers, as shown by our initial success in bio-production and in high-capacity behavioral systems. In addition, in the first half of 2023, we began shipping our innovative second-generation MEA (multi electrode array) systems designed for testing at the cell and developing organoid level.”

For the year 2023, we expect gross margins of approximately 60% and adjusted EBITDA margins in the 15% to 17% range. We also remain on the path to reduce our net leverage ratio to approximately 2X by the end of this year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

In this press release, we have included non-GAAP financial information, including adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share and net leverage ratio. We believe that this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with an enhanced understanding of the underlying operations of the business. For the periods presented, these non-GAAP financial measures have excluded certain expenses and income resulting from items that we do not believe are representative of the underlying operations of the business. Items excluded include stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, litigation settlement, restructuring and other costs, unrealized gain/loss on equity securities and income taxes. They also exclude the tax impact of the reconciling items. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial information is important in comparing current results with prior period results and is useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing the Company’s operating performance. Non-GAAP historical financial statement information included herein is accompanied by a reconciliation to the nearest corresponding GAAP measure which is included as exhibits below in this press release.

With respect to forward-looking measures, we provide an outlook for adjusted EBITDA margin and net leverage ratio. Many of the items that we exclude from these forward-looking measure calculations are less capable of being controlled or reliably predicted by management. These items could cause the forward-looking measures presented in our outlook statements to vary materially from our GAAP results.

The non-GAAP financial information provided in this press release should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the financial information provided and presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different than other companies’ non-GAAP financial information.
