GeneDx Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: WGS), a leader in delivering
improved health outcomes through genomic insights, today reported
its financial results for the second quarter of 2024.
“Our continued organizational focus on execution fueled our
strong second quarter results, giving us confidence to raise full
year 2024 revenue guidance to between $255-$265 million and
reiterate our expectation to reach profitability in the next
several quarters,” said Katherine Stueland, President and Chief
Executive Officer at GeneDx. “The strength in our performance
across all measures of the business has enabled us to begin
investments in future growth opportunities for our business with a
focus on extending our leadership in whole exome sequencing to
whole genome sequencing to ensure we continue to lead the charge in
quickly providing the most accurate and actionable genetic
information to diagnose disease for as many patients and families
as possible.”

1.
Revenue and gross margin results from
continuing operations, which we believe are representative of our
ongoing business strategy exclude any revenue and cost of goods
sold of the exited Legacy Sema4 diagnostic testing business for the
current and all comparative periods. Total company results include
GeneDx’s continuing operations and the financial impacts of exited
Legacy Sema4 business activities for the current and all
comparative periods.
2.
Adjusted gross margin, adjusted total
operating expenses and adjusted net loss are non-GAAP financial
measures. See appendix for a reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP
figures presented.
GeneDx Full Year 2024 Guidance
GeneDx has updated full year 2024 guidance. Management expects
GeneDx to:
- Drive full year 2024 revenues1 between $255 and $265 million
(previous guidance was between $235 and $245 million);
- Expand full year 2024 adjusted gross margin profile to at least
60% (no change);
- Use between $65 to $70 million of net cash for full year 2024
(previous guidance was between $70 to $80 million);
- Turn to profitability in 2025 (no change).
1.
Total company results include the
combination of the GeneDx diagnostic business revenues and the data
and information revenues from the Legacy Sema4 business.
Second Quarter 2024 Business Highlights
Driving sustainable growth, expanding access and improving the
standard of care
- Announced collaboration with Epic Aura1 to expand access to
rapid whole genome sequencing (“rWGS”) services to inform diagnosis
for affected pediatric and neonatal patients, enhancing GeneDx’s
commercial footprint within leading health systems.
- Launched first-of-its-kind Patient Access Program in
collaboration with leading biopharma partners to expand access to
exome testing for pediatric epilepsy patients.
- Grew biopharma partner programs to 32, predominantly with
biotech companies who are relying on us to find patients with a
specific variant for clinical trial purposes.
- North Carolina Medicaid has expanded its existing coverage of
outpatient whole exome sequencing (“WES”) to include the analysis
of family comparator samples, which increases the rate of diagnosis
of WES, effective June 1, 2024.
- State Medicaid programs continue to expand coverage of rapid
genome sequencing in the neonatal intensive care unit (“NICU”),
bringing total states covering rapid whole genome in the acute care
setting to 14, including new coverage announced in:
- North Carolina (June 2024)
- Tennessee (July 2024)
- Connecticut (July 2024)
- Announced reinvestment in rapid and standard whole genome
sequencing products, enabling:
- Faster turnaround time for rWGS with a written report in as
fast as 5 days
- Buccal samples (cheek swab) allowing for easier and more
accessible non-invasive sample collection method for even the
youngest patients
- Expanding the number of repeat expansions covered by whole
genome sequencing to increase diagnostic yield and improve the
provider and patient experience by decreasing the need for
follow-up testing
