OXFORD, United Kingdom and MARLBOROUGH, Mass., Nov. 03, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Oxford Immunotec Global PLC (Nasdaq:OXFD), a global, commercial-stage
diagnostics company focused on developing and commercializing proprietary tests
for the management of immune-regulated conditions, today announced third quarter
2015 financial results.
"We are very pleased with our third quarter financial and operating results,"
said Dr. Peter Wrighton-Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Oxford Immunotec. "Our
sales performance exceeded expectations, driven by strong growth in our United
States and Asia geographies, and we are pleased with the progress we are making
on our pipeline."

Third Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $17.9 million, representing 35% growth
over the third quarter 2014 revenue of $13.3 million. On a constant currency
basis, revenue growth was 41% versus the prior year period.
2015 third quarter product revenue was $8.3 million representing a 28% increase
from product revenue of $6.5 million in the third quarter of 2014. The increase
in product revenue was primarily attributable to volume growth in Asia. Service
revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $9.6 million, up 41% from the 2014
third quarter of $6.8 million. The increase in service revenue was primarily
driven by increased volume, specifically in the institutional and patient
testing segments, in the United States.
United States revenue was $9.3 million in the third quarter of 2015 representing
44% growth over the same period's revenue of $6.5 million in the prior year.
Growth was driven primarily by increases in the institutional and patient
testing segments.
Europe & ROW revenue was $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2015 representing
a 4% decrease compared to 2014 third quarter revenue of $1.7 million. On a
constant currency basis, Europe & ROW grew 8% versus the third quarter of 2014.
Asia revenue was $7.0 million in the third quarter of 2015 representing 36%
growth over the 2014 third quarter revenue of $5.1 million. On a constant
currency basis, Asia grew 48% versus the third quarter of 2014. The increase was
driven by continued strong growth in both China and Japan.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2015 was $9.9 million, an increase of $3.1
million over gross profit of $6.8 million in the same period of 2014. Gross
margin was 55.0%, an increase of 390 basis points from the gross margin of
51.1% in the third quarter of 2014. The increase was primarily due to
operational efficiencies associated with increased volume and operational
improvements in our service business, partially offset by the impact of foreign
currency exchange rate changes and increased share-based compensation charges in
2015 compared to 2014.
Operating expenses were $14.7 million in the third quarter of 2015, an increase
of $1.7 million compared to $13.0 million in the same period last year. The
increase in operating expenses was primarily due to headcount increases related
to both research and development and sales and marketing, as well as increased
costs from clinical studies performed during the quarter.
EBITDA for the third quarter was $(3.8) million compared to $(5.5) million in
the third quarter of 2014. Adjusted EBITDA was $(2.0) million for the third
quarter compared to $(4.9) million in the same period in 2014. Both EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures.
Net loss for the third quarter of 2015 was $4.5 million, or $0.20 per share,
compared to $6.1 million, or $0.35 per share, in the third quarter of 2014. Net
loss per share was based on 22,259,840 and 17,333,441 weighted average ordinary
shares outstanding for the third quarters of 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents were $88.5 million as of September 30, 2015 compared
to $90.4 million as of June 30, 2015.
Business Outlook
We expect to report revenue of between $15.9 and $16.7 million for the fourth
quarter of 2015.
We expect to report full year 2015 revenue of between $61.9 and $62.7 million,
representing 25%-27% year-over-year growth. We expect revenue to increase 31% to
32% for the year using constant exchange rates.
