Results
Evolus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EOLS), a global performance beauty company
with a focus on building an aesthetic portfolio, today announced
its preliminary, unaudited net revenue for the fourth quarter and
full-year ended December 31, 2023. The preliminary unaudited
results described in this press release are based on the most
current information available to management and are subject to
change until the audit of the company’s 2023 financial results is
completed and the company reports its full financial results for
the fourth quarter and full-year 2023, which is anticipated to
occur in early March 2024.
“We believe the preliminary results of the fourth quarter and
full-year 2023 are clear indications of our strong operational
execution and significant market share gains resulting from deeper
penetration of the neurotoxin market in the U.S. with Jeuveau® and
expansion of our neurotoxin brand, Nuceiva®, in Europe,” said David
Moatazedi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Evolus. “We are
thrilled to have achieved record results and exceeded our guidance
for the year, positioning us to carry this strong momentum and
drive growth into 2024.
“In 2023, the Company achieved several significant milestones,
including the expansion of our portfolio with the addition of
late-stage dermal fillers expected to be launched in the U.S. and
Europe in 2025, expanding our estimated total addressable market by
78% to approximately $6 billion,” Moatazedi continued. “In
addition, we achieved a 30% increase in purchasing customers and a
55% increase in consumers in our loyalty program, and global
expansion into three additional countries outside the U.S.”
Preliminary Unaudited 2023 Results and Key
Business Highlights
- Total net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2023 were
approximately $61 million, a 40% increase over the fourth quarter
of 2022 and a 22% increase over the prior sequential quarter,
driven primarily by higher volumes from market share gains.
- Total net revenues for full-year 2023 were approximately $202
million, a 36% percent increase over full-year net revenues in 2022
and above the top end of the company’s guidance of $194 to $198
million.
- Accounts purchasing Jeuveau® increased by a record high of more
than 840 in the fourth quarter. This is 20% above the year-to-date
quarterly average in our seasonally highest performance quarter.
During 2023, more than 2,900 new accounts were added bringing the
total number of accounts purchasing to date since launch to more
than 12,400. The reorder rate among customers remains at
approximately 70%.1
- Enrollment in the Evolus Rewards consumer loyalty program grew
55% in 2023 to end the year at approximately 750,000 consumers.2
This was aided by a record high of over 170,000 total redemptions
in the fourth quarter, driven by continued demand from existing
patients receiving repeat treatments which represented
approximately 60% of the total treatments for the quarter,
demonstrating sustained brand loyalty.
- As of December 31, 2023, Evolus had cash and cash equivalents
of $62.8 million compared to $38.7 million on September 30, 2023,
reflecting strong sales growth and cash collections, and prudent
expense management. The cash balance at December 31, 2023 included
additional borrowings of $25.0 million under the company’s credit
facility with Pharmakon. Net of additional borrowing, cash used in
the fourth quarter of 2023 was $0.9 million and notably lower than
the third quarter of 2023, representing continued progress towards
cash flow breakeven. Evolus continues to expect its existing
liquidity will fully fund it to sustained profitability3 in
2025.
2024 Guidance and Select
Milestones
- Total net revenues for 2024 are estimated to be between $255
million and $265 million, which represents 26% to 31% growth from
preliminary 2023 results.
- Non-GAAP operating expenses for 2024 are estimated to be
between $185 million and $190 million. As a result of the European
Filler License agreement announced on December 20, 2023, the 2023
Operating Expense guidance range will increase from $153 million to
$158 million to $160 million to $165 million. The issuance of
610,000 shares of the company’s common stock for the exclusive
distribution rights for the UK and Europe will be recorded as
IPR&D expense of up to $5.9 million (the Company issued 610,000
shares at $9.68 per share based on the closing price of the
company’s common stock on December 20, 2023).
- Due to the capital efficient structure of our agreements with
Symatese, the anticipated launch expenses associated with the
Evolysse™ and Estyme® dermal filler lines in the U.S. and Europe,
respectively, are not anticipated to impact our expectation of
achieving profitability3 in 2025.
- Evolus expects non-GAAP operating income to be positive in 2025
and continues to project its existing liquidity will fund current
operations.
- During 2024, Evolus expects to broaden its global footprint by
expanding into additional European countries with Nuceiva®, most
notably Australia and Spain.
- Evolus anticipates submitting Premarket Approval (PMA)
applications for the first two Evolysse dermal filler products with
FDA by mid-year 2024 and expects regulatory approvals for the
remaining Estyme® dermal filler products in Europe in the second
half of 2024.

in May 2019 through December 31, 2023. 2 Represents cumulative
statistics from the launch of Evolus Rewards in May 2020 through
December 31, 2023. 3 Within this press release, “profitability” is
defined as achieving positive non-GAAP operating income. This press
release includes references to non-GAAP operating income and
non-GAAP operating expenses. “Non-GAAP operating income” excludes
the revaluation of contingent royalty obligations, stock-based
compensation expense, and depreciation and amortization. “Non-GAAP
operating expenses” are operating expenses excluding product cost
of sales, revaluation of contingent royalty obligations,
stock-based compensation expense, and depreciation and
amortization. Management believes that non-GAAP operating expenses
are useful in helping to identify the company’s core operating
performance and enables management to consistently analyze the
period-to-period financial performance of the core business
operations. Management also believes that non-GAAP operating
expenses will enable investors to assess the company in the same
way that management has historically assessed the company’s
operating expenses against comparable companies with conventional
accounting methodologies. The company’s definitions of non-GAAP
operating income and non-GAAP operating expenses have limitations
as analytical tools and may differ from other companies reporting
similarly named measures. Non-GAAP measures should not be
considered superior to and are not intended to be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Due to
the forward-looking nature of the non-GAAP operating income and
non-GAAP operating expenses outlook disclosed in this press
release, no reconciliation of such non-GAAP measures to the
comparable GAAP financial measures is available without
unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of
forecasting the timing or amount of various reconciling items that
would impact the forward-looking non-GAAP operating income and
non-GAAP operating expenses, that have not yet occurred and/or
cannot be reasonably predicted. Such unavailable information could
have a significant impact on the company’s GAAP financial
results.
