Author's Avatar
Aug 01, 2024

Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. (Nasdaq: TNDM), a global insulin delivery and diabetes technology company, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and increased sales guidance for the year ending December 31, 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights

  • Worldwide GAAP sales increased 13 percent to $221.9 million compared to second quarter 2023; worldwide non-GAAP sales(1) increased 12 percent to $221.8 million compared to second quarter 2023.
  • More than 20,000 pumps shipped in the United States, a sequential increase of 33 percent compared to first quarter 2024.
  • Launched Tandem Mobi with Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor integration in the United States.
  • Completed enrollment for Control-IQ pivotal study to support an expanded indication for Control-IQ to people living with type 2 diabetes.
  • Began the launch of Tandem Source outside the United States.

“Our financial outperformance in the second quarter was bolstered by strong demand for our latest technology offerings, namely Tandem Mobi, which drove our expansion of the insulin pump market,” said John Sheridan, president and chief executive officer. “The early enthusiasm for our expanding portfolio supports our strategy to offer our customers choice as we work to bring the benefits of our technology to more people living with diabetes worldwide.”

Second 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 Tandem Mobi, for a fee when available. At the end of the second quarter, the Company began offering eligible t:slim X2 owners the opportunity to switch to a Tandem Mobi under the terms of the program. 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 D “Reconciliation of GAAP versus Non-GAAP Financial Results” attached to this press release.

(1) A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and additional information can be found in Table D “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 D “Reconciliation of GAAP versus Non-GAAP Financial Results” attached to this press release. Also see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information.

“We increased our worldwide sales expectations to 15 percent annual growth, which reflects the strong performance of our recent product launches and consistently high retention rates for our existing customer base,” said Leigh Vosseller, executive vice president and chief financial officer. “Driving growth is a top priority for our business, as we balance the associated investments with opportunities to drive leverage in pursuit of our long-term profitability objectives.”

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 $885 million to $892 million for the full year and $222 million to $225 million in the third quarter.
    • Sales in the United States of $640 million to $645 million for the full year and $162 million to $165 million in the third quarter.
    • Sales outside the United States of approximately $245 million to $247 million for the full year and $60 million in the third quarter.
  • Non-GAAP gross margin is estimated to be approximately 51 percent for the full year and the third quarter.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is estimated to be breakeven as a percent of sales for the full year and the third 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 D “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 $31.0 million as of June 30, 2024. When 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.
  • Qualifying customers were able to elect participation in Tandem Choice starting at the end of the second quarter of 2024.
  • 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.
