Castle Biosciences Announces Third Quarter 2021 Results

Q3 2021 revenue grew by 54% over the prior year quarter to $23.5 million

Q3 2021 total dermatology test report volume of 7,352

On track to achieve 2021 total revenue guidance of $89-93 million

Conference call and webcast today at 4:30 p.m. ET

Castle Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: CSTL), a company applying innovative diagnostics to inform disease management and improve patient outcomes, today announced its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2021.

“The Castle team achieved another quarter of strong growth in revenue and test report volume, despite the diagnoses of cutaneous melanoma being down by approximately 16% compared to historical pre-COVID third quarter 2019 levels,” said Derek Maetzold, president and chief executive officer of Castle Biosciences. “From the onset of the pandemic, we made the strategic decision to accelerate investments in our growth initiatives, including the expansion of our commercial team and our R&D programs - both for our commercial and pipeline tests. And as a result, we have seen excellent progress across our key priorities. Our body of evidence supporting our tests continues to grow, with consistent data further demonstrating the potential of our tests to provide valuable, clinically actionable information to clinicians and patients. We doubled our dermatology facing commercial team in the second quarter of 2021. They were fully trained as of July 1, 2021, enabling the promotion of all of our skin cancer genomic tests in all U.S. geographies. The team grew their experience and territory knowledge in the third quarter, and we expect them to continue toward optimal productivity, which we believe takes about two quarters.

“Further, we identified two additional areas of strategic growth that we believe complement and diversify our existing business and align with our focus of addressing indications with unmet clinical need to improve patient care. The first was our acquisition of myPath® Melanoma, and more recently, the pending acquisition of Cernostics, Inc. (Cernostics). We believe Cernostics’ first-to-market TissueCypher® Barrett’s esophagus (BE) test addresses an unmet clinical need in BE, as it is designed to support improved risk-stratification treatment plans by objectively and accurately predicting progression from non-dysplastic, indefinite for dysplasia and low-grade dysplasia BE to high-grade dysplasia or esophageal adenocarcinoma. The TissueCypher platform also has the potential to answer clinical problems in additional gastroenterology areas and other diseases.

“I am proud of the Castle team, the consistent execution they deliver on our initiatives, and the impact their hard work and dedication has on the lives of patients, which remains our focus. We look forward to furthering our position as a leader in the dermatologic diagnostic space and continuing to build the company with innovative technology that has the potential to accelerate our impact on patient care and thus drive value creation for stockholders.”

2021 Revenue Guidance

In August of 2021, Castle Biosciences raised its guidance for anticipated total revenue in 2021 to $89-93 million. The Company believes it will meet the guided range.

Third Quarter and Recent Business and Clinical Evidence Highlights

  • In July and August, the Company presented evidence on its family of skin cancer tests at numerous in-person, hybrid and virtual medical conferences, including American Head & Neck Society (AHNS) 2021 International Conference, Society of Dermatology Physician Assistants (SDPA) Annual Summer Dermatology Conference, DERM 2021 and 2021 American Academy of Dermatology Association (AAD) Summer Meeting. See the Company’s news page for more information.
  • In August, the Company announced that it had been awarded a five-year U.S. Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contract from the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) for its DecisionDx®-Melanoma gene expression profile test. The VHA is a component of and implements the healthcare program for U.S. veterans through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The contract became effective on Aug. 15, 2021, and provides greater access to DecisionDx®-Melanoma for veterans being treated through the VHA, the largest integrated health care system in the U.S., as well as active-duty service members and their families seeking medical treatment through the Military Health System (MHS). See the Company’s news release from Aug. 24, 2021, for more information.
  • In September, the Company announced that it received approval from the New York State Department of Health for its proprietary DecisionDx® DiffDx™-Melanoma gene expression profile (GEP) test. DecisionDx DiffDx-Melanoma is designed to provide an objective and comprehensive diagnostic offering to aid dermatopathologists in characterizing difficult-to-diagnose melanocytic lesions. Castle previously received approvals in the state of New York for its other GEP tests, including DecisionDx®-Melanoma, DecisionDx®-SCC, DecisionDx®-UM and DecisionDx®-PRAME, as well as its next generation sequencing panels, DecisionDx®-CMSeq and DecisionDx®-UMSeq. See the Company’s news release from Sept. 16, 2021, for more information.
  • In October, the Company signed a definitive agreement to acquire Cernostics, an Illumina Ventures company. Cernostics specializes in spatial biology and artificial intelligence-driven image analysis of tissue biopsies. Its TissueCypher® Barrett’s Esophagus Assay is the first precision medicine test designed to predict future development of high-grade dysplasia (HGD) and/or esophageal cancer in patients with BE. The acquisition would expand Castle’s estimated U.S. total addressable market by approximately $1 billion. The Company expects the deal to close before year-end 2021. See the Company’s news release from Oct. 19, 2021, for more information.
  • In October, the Company presented data on its suite of dermatologic cancer gene expression profile (GEP) tests, as well as presented a poster describing the study design for its inflammatory skin disease pipeline initiative at the 2021 Fall Clinical Dermatology Conference. See the Company’s news release from Oct. 22, 2021, for more information.
  • In October, the Company announced that the DecisionDx-Melanoma integrated test result (ITR) now includes i31-GEP for Risk of Recurrence (i31-ROR). Designed to improve the precision of treatment plans for better patient care, the i31-ROR predicts patient-specific five-year outcomes for melanoma-specific survival (MSS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). See the Company’s news release from Oct. 28, 2021, for more information.
  • In November, the Company announced the publication of a novel algorithm that integrates the DecisionDx®-Melanoma test with clinicopathologic features (i31-GEP SLNB) to determine sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) positivity risk in patients with cutaneous melanoma. The article, titled “Integrating 31-Gene Expression Profiling with Clinicopathologic Features to Optimize Cutaneous Melanoma Sentinel Lymph Node Metastasis Prediction,” highlights the development and validation of the i31-GEP SLNB algorithm and demonstrates improved prediction for sentinel lymph node (SLN) status compared to clinicopathologic features alone and a very high correlation comparing predicted versus observed SLN positivity rates of 0.999 (1.0 is complete correlation). The study was published in the peer-reviewed journal JCO® Precision Oncology. See the Company’s news release from Nov. 5, 2021, for more information.
  • In November, the Company announced the launch of its inaugural Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, detailing the Company’s related policies and metrics. See the Company’s news release from earlier today, for more information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (UNAUDITED)

In this release, we use the metrics of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Operating Cash Flow, which are non-GAAP financial measures and are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Adjusted Revenue and Adjusted Gross Margin reflect adjustments to net revenues to exclude changes in variable consideration related to test reports delivered in previous periods. Adjusted Gross Margin further excludes acquisition-related intangible asset amortization. Adjusted Operating Cash Flow excludes the effects of cash activity associated with COVID-19 government relief payments to healthcare providers.

We use Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Operating Cash Flow internally because we believe these metrics provide useful supplemental information in assessing our revenue and cash flow performance, respectively. We believe Adjusted Revenue and Adjusted Gross Margin are also useful to investors because they provide additional information on current-period performance by removing the effects of revenue adjustments related to tests delivered in previous periods and acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, which we believe may facilitate revenue and gross margin comparisons to historical periods. We believe Adjusted Operating Cash Flow is also useful to investors as a supplement to GAAP measures in the assessment of our cash flow performance by removing the effects of COVID-19 government relief payments, which we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operations. However, these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when the same or similarly titled terms are used to identify such measures, limiting their usefulness for comparative purposes. These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be substitutes for net revenues, gross margin or net cash (used in) provided by operating activities reported in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in conjunction with our financial information presented on GAAP basis. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables at the end of this release.

  • In April 2020, we received an advance payment of $8.3 million from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Service (CMS), for which recoupment has commenced in April 2021. We recorded the receipt of the payment as a liability on our balance sheet and, in accordance with GAAP, it is included in net cash provided by operating activities in the period received. We have excluded receipt of the advance payment from adjusted operating cash flow, but as claims are submitted for reimbursement and applied against this balance, we include the advance payment in adjusted operating cash flow to the extent that Medicare claims submitted for reimbursement have been applied to the balance.
  • In April 2020, we received a one-time payment of $1.9 million in relief funds automatically allocated to Medicare providers under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
