Financial StatementAcquisition
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bionik Laboratories Corp. (OTCPINK: BNKL), a robotics company providing neurological functional recovery solutions to stroke survivors and others with functional and mobility challenges, today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, ended September 30, 2022.
Second Quarter FY 2023 Highlights
Bionik launched its new corporate strategy to operate a network of specialized Centers of Excellence for neuro-recovery care that showcase Bionik technology and solutions by acquiring its first center located in Clermont, FL. The acquisition closed in mid-September and is making contributions in an immediate way with our technology installed in the last week of the quarter.
Revenue was $0.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $0.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of 113%, primarily due to three units sold directly in the current period compared to two units sold through our distributor model in the prior year period.
Bionik’s sales pipeline continues to grow and remains healthy.
On a GAAP basis, total operating expenses increased 19% to $1.4 million, primarily due to ongoing increases in sales and marketing and R&D investments.
On a GAAP basis, the net loss was $1.1 million, or ($0.16) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.3 million, or ($0.22) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2022. On a Non-GAAP basis, the net loss was $1.0 million, or ($0.15) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.21) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2022.
Subsequent to quarter end, Bionik announced the appointment of Richard Russo Jr. to the Board of Directors along with his promotion to Chief Executive Officer and President, from Chief Financial Officer and interim CEO. Filling the role as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer will be Dan Gonsalves, formerly Bionik’s Corporate Controller.
Richard Russo, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bionik, commented, “Bionik achieved several milestones during the second fiscal quarter. The biggest of which included acquiring our first rehabilitation center in Florida as part of a strategic national rollout of neuro recovery centers that is expected to enable us to provide more patients with access to Bionik’s InMotion systems, which are the gold standard for robotic upper extremity rehabilitation. This strategy reflects our firm belief in early and intensive interventions to deliver the best proven outcomes for patients with stroke or neurotrauma.”
“The acquisition closed in mid-September, contributing modest revenue to the second quarter, and is expected to be accretive to our financial results and strengthen and diversify our revenue streams, profitability, and outlook for growth. During the second quarter we shipped three direct sales units. Our sales pipeline remains healthy and the outlook for the second half of the fiscal year is strong as well as we continue working to advance our strategies for growth and deliver successful proven outcomes for our patients.”
Second Quarter FY 2023 Financial Results
Total revenue for the second fiscal quarter was $0.5 million, an increase of 113%, compared with $0.2 million revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. In the fiscal 2023 period, three units were shipped as direct sales as compared to two sales in the fiscal 2022 period both of which were through our distributor model. Subscription revenue increased by 10% due to more subscriptions in the fiscal 2023 period as compared to the fiscal 2022 period.
Gross profit for the second fiscal quarter was $0.3 million, an increase of 102%, compared to $0.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. The gross margin was 61% compared to 64% in the prior year period. Although direct sales typically carry higher margins than our distributor model, we expect to see lower margins with the diversified revenues from our clinic strategy on a go-forward basis.
Total operating expenses for the second fiscal quarter were $1.4 million, an increase of 19%, compared to $1.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. Sales and marketing expenses increased by 13% to $0.5 million for the current period, primarily due to ongoing investments in commercial and marketing initiatives to bolster our sales pipeline. Research and development expenses increased 165% to $0.2 million to support consulting costs and headcount related to our research and development, regulatory and quality initiatives. General and administrative expenses remained consistent to the prior period at $0.7 million. Interest expense for the second fiscal quarter declined by 92% to $17,000 due to lower debt outstanding compared to the prior fiscal year period.
The net loss for the second fiscal quarter was $1.1 million, or ($0.16) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.3 million, or ($0.22) per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. Weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding were 6,879,554 and 5,855,512 for the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 and 2022, respectively.
On a non-GAAP basis, excluding share-based compensation expense, costs of acquisition and foreign exchange loss and costs associated with the amortization of intangibles in the prior period, the net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was $1.0 million, or ($0.15) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.21) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2022.
Six Months FY 2023 Financial Results
Total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2022 decreased by 19%, to $0.7 million, as compared to revenues of $0.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021. The decline was primarily due to a decrease in the number of units shipped year-over-year. Gross Profit decreased by 32% to $0.5 million, and gross margin was 64% compared with 76%. The decrease was primarily due to the mix of unit sales in the fiscal 2022 period. Total operating expenses increased by 17% to $2.9 million.
The net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2022 was $2.5 million, or ($0.37) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million, or ($0.30) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2022. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding share-based compensation expense, costs of acquisition and foreign exchange loss and costs associated with the amortization of intangibles in the prior period, the net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2022 was $2.4 million, or ($0.34) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $2.0 million, or ($0.35) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2022.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, BIONIK uses non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP diluted net loss per share. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release exclude costs associated with the amortization of intangible assets acquired, share-based compensation expense, acquisition costs, extinguishment of existing debt, as well as unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021. This exclusion may be different from, and therefore not comparable to, similar measures used by other companies.
BIONIK’s management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding amortization, impairment and foreign exchange costs that may not be indicative of our core business operating results. BIONIK believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to the non-GAAP financial measures in assessing BIONIK’s performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. BIONIK also believes that the non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in our financial and operational decision making. The non-GAAP Financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to BIONIK’s historical performance and our competitors’ operating results.
