Tandem Diabetes Care Announces First Quarter 2024 Financial Results and Updates Full Year 2024 Financial Guidance

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 2, 2024-- Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNDM), a global insulin delivery and diabetes technology company, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 and increased sales guidance for the year ending December 31, 2024.

First Quarter 2024 Highlights Compared to First Quarter 2023:

  • Worldwide GAAP sales increased 13 percent to $191.7 million; worldwide non-GAAP sales increased 12 percent to $192.8 million.
  • Worldwide pump shipments increased 9 percent to approximately 25,000 pumps from 23,000 pumps.
  • First quarter 2024 commercial launches:
    • Launched Tandem Mobi with Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor integration in the United States.
    • Launched t:slim X2 integration with the Abbott Freestyle Libre 2 Plus CGM sensor in the United States.
    • Initiated rolling launch of t:slim X2 with Dexcom G7 sensor integration outside the United States.
  • Received U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance to expand the Tandem Mobi pump indication for use in individuals two years of age and older.
  • Began enrollment for extended wear infusion set clinical trial.
  • Completed a $316.3 million senior convertible notes offering primarily used for repurchase of existing senior convertible notes.

“Our outperformance in the first quarter was driven by demand for both the t:slim X2 and our newly launched Tandem Mobi, validating our portfolio strategy that allows us to address a greater market by meeting the needs and preferences of more people living with diabetes,” said John Sheridan, president and chief executive officer. “We are well-positioned to deliver on our 2024 objectives, along with longer-term growth and profitability goals.”

First Quarter 2024 Sales Results Compared to 2023

From September 2022 through February 2024, the Company offered the Tandem Choice Program (Tandem Choice) to eligible t:slim X2 customers to provide a pathway to ownership of its newest hardware platform, Tandem Mobi, for a fee when available. As a result of this program, the Company is providing select financial results for both GAAP and non-GAAP. Additional information, including the accounting treatment of this program and other non-GAAP measures, can be found under Table E “Reconciliation of GAAP versus Non-GAAP Financial Results” attached to this press release.

Also see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information.

See tables for additional financial information.

2024 Financial Guidance

The Company’s non-GAAP guidance for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 is set forth below. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis due to the high degree of complexity in the accounting treatment for the Tandem Choice program. For a description of non-GAAP sales, non-GAAP gross margin, and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as well as an illustration of the reconciliation from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, refer to Table E “Reconciliation of GAAP versus Non-GAAP Financial Results” attached to this press release. Also see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information.

For the year ending December 31, 2024, the Company is updating its 2024 financial guidance as follows:

  • Non-GAAP sales are estimated to be approximately $868 million for the full year and $205 million in the second quarter.
    • Sales in the United States of approximately $634 million for the full year and $150 million in the second quarter.
    • Sales outside the United States of approximately $234 million for the full year and $55 million in the second quarter.
  • Non-GAAP gross margin is estimated to be approximately 51 percent for the full year and approximately and 50 percent in the second quarter.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is estimated to be breakeven as a percent of sales for the full year and approximately negative 5 percent in the second quarter.
  • Non-cash charges included in cost of goods sold and operating expenses are estimated to be approximately $120 million. This includes:
    • Approximately $100 million non-cash, stock-based compensation expense.
    • Approximately $20 million depreciation and amortization expense.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-GAAP financial measures are presented in this press release to provide information that may assist investors in understanding the Company’s financial results and assessing its prospects for future performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are important operating performance indicators because they exclude items that are unrelated to, and may not be indicative of, the Company’s core operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures, as calculated, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be appropriate measures for comparing the performance of other companies relative to the Company. These non-GAAP financial results are not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. To the extent the Company uses such non-GAAP financial measures in the future, they will be calculated using a consistent method from period to period. A reconciliation of each of the historical GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable historical non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in Table E “Reconciliation of GAAP versus Non-GAAP Financial Results” attached to this press release.

The Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in reliance on the “unreasonable efforts” exception set forth in the applicable regulations, because there is substantial uncertainty associated with predicting any future adjustments that may be made to the Company’s GAAP financial measures in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures.

In particular, the accounting treatment for Tandem Choice has a high degree of complexity. In September 2022 when the program was launched, the Company began deferring a portion of sales for each eligible t:slim X2 pump shipped in the United States. The total Tandem Choice deferral was $31.5 million as of March 31, 2024. If a customer elects to participate in Tandem Choice, the Company will recognize the existing deferral, incremental fees received and the associated costs of providing the new insulin pump at the time of fulfillment. The timing of recognition will be based on either a) an affirmative election to participate in Tandem Choice or b) expiration of the right to participate at program expiration.

Notably:

  • Offering the program does not impact the economics associated with how or when the initial pump sale is reimbursed.
  • Customer eligibility was automatic and no election was necessary to participate in Tandem Choice at the time of a t:slim X2 purchase. Customer eligibility ended in February 2024 with the commercial availability of the new hardware platform, Tandem Mobi.
  • An affirmative election is required for the customer to participate in Tandem Choice, at which time any customer fees will be received and recognized as a sale. Any remaining deferrals will be recognized at program expiration.
  • The expiration date of Tandem Choice is December 31, 2024.
