Surgalign Holdings, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2022 Results and
Raises Full Year 2022 Revenue Guidance Range

Deerfield, Ill., May 10, 2022 – Surgalign Holdings, Inc., (NASDAQ: SRGA) a global medical technology company focused on elevating the standard of care by driving the evolution of digital surgery, today announced financial results for its 2022 first quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Financial Highlights and Key Events:
Received FDA 510(k) clearance for HOLO Portal™ System, the world's first AI-driven AR guidance system for spine surgery;
1st Holo Portal™ site up and running;
1st successful Holo Portal™ case completed;
Total global spine revenue of $20.6 million;
Adjusted EBITDA loss of $13.3 million;
Cash and cash equivalents of $44.7 million; generated approximately $17.7 million in gross proceeds from underwritten public offering.
“I’m pleased to report that during the first quarter, we began to see market conditions improve with fewer COVID-related restrictions in place, and higher demand for our products as a result. With the improved environment, we now expect higher revenue for 2022 than our prior forecast with opportunities to further grow product revenue as we continue to innovate and expand,” stated Terry Rich, President and Chief Executive Officer of Surgalign Holdings.

Mr. Rich continued, “During the quarter, our most significant milestone achievement was receipt of FDA 510(k) clearance. With approval to move forward, we have now entered the initial commercial stage to bring this new revolutionary technology to market. This past week, we reached another major milestone with our first site up and first successful cases completed using our HOLO Portal. We expect more sites to be launched this quarter and our goal remains to have between 10-15 sites up and running by the end of the year with a more widespread launch in 2023. While our initial focus is the spine, we believe our artificial intelligence, or AI, platform will apply to other medical specialties and types of surgical procedures, opening up a much larger global market opportunity. It is our belief that AI can be applied across a variety of anatomy to drive improvements in healthcare, with the end goal to improve patient outcomes.”

First Quarter Comparisons

Total revenue for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022, was $20.6 million as compared to $23.3 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in revenue was primarily



related to the ongoing impact of COVID-19, which continued to impact surgical procedures performed.

The Company reported gross margins of 68.9% and 73.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively, with the decline related to lower revenue for the comparable periods, as well as product rationalization initiatives.

On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported gross margin of 70.9% as compared to gross margin of 75.5% in the first quarter of 2021.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2022 were $23.1 million as compared to $31.5 million in the comparable year-ago period, a decline of $8.4 million or 26.6%. The year-over-year improvement in operating expenses was primarily driven by a $8.5 million decrease in the Holo milestone valuation and a $0.8 million decline in general and administrative expenses. This was offset by a $1.6 million increase in research and development expenses, primarily related to the continued development of the HOLO platform and obtaining regulatory approval.

On a non-GAAP basis, total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2022 were $28.4 million as compared to $27.9 million in the comparable year-ago period. Excluded from Q1 non-GAAP operating expense was approximately $0.9 million in asset impairment charges related to the impairment of instruments during the quarter, $0.9 million in transaction and integration expenses related to issuance costs associated to the newly issued warrants, non-cash stock-based compensation of $1.4 million and a gain of $8.5 million due to adjustments to the fair value of the Holo milestones.

The Company reported an operating loss of $8.9 million in the first quarter of 2022 as compared to an operating loss of $14.4 million in the first quarter of 2021. Net income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2022 was $0.0 million as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $15.2 million for the first quarter of 2021.

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), for the first quarter of 2022 was a loss of $13.3 million as compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $9.8 million for the first quarter of 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents were approximately $44.7 million. This compares to $51.3 million reported as of December 31, 2021. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of its common stock, raising gross proceeds of approximately $17.7 million.

Fiscal 2022 Business Outlook

The Company now expects full year revenue in the range of $86 to $90 million, which represents a $3.0 increase from its previously issued guidance of $83 to $87 million. The increased guidance is based on improving market conditions and a stronger outlook for the Company’s products and solutions.




FDA 510(k) Clearance of HOLO Portal System

On January 18, 2022, the Company announced that it had received clearance of its HOLO Portal surgical guidance system for use within lumbar spine procedures. The HOLO Portal system is the world’s first artificial intelligence (AI)-driven augmented reality (AR) guidance system for spine, and the first clinical application of the Company’s HOLO™ AI digital health platform.

The HOLO Portal system combines machine learning-based image guidance technology with AR, automated spine segmentation (i.e., anatomy recognition), and automated surgical planning utilizing proprietary AI software. Intraoperative images are autonomously processed by the AI system to create a patient-specific plan that is presented to the surgeon using the AR display.

First HOLO Portal Cases

On May 5, 2022, the Company announced that its HOLO Portal surgical guidance system had officially entered clinical use, with the first surgical procedure completed. The surgery was performed at Indiana Spine Hospital in Carmel, Indiana by Dr. Mario Brkaric, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, we disclose non-GAAP net income applicable to common shares and non-GAAP gross profit adjusted for certain amounts. The calculation of the tax effect on the adjustments between GAAP net loss applicable to common shares and non-GAAP net income applicable to common shares is based upon our estimated annual GAAP tax rate, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP net loss applicable to common shares in calculating non-GAAP net income applicable to common shares. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are included in the reconciliations below.



The following are explanations of the adjustments that management excluded as part of the non-GAAP measures for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Management removes the amount of these costs including the tax effect on the adjustments from our operating results to supplement a comparison to our past operating performance.
2022 and 2021 Non-cash stock-based compensation – These costs relate to expense amortization for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors, including restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock options and the employee stock purchase plan purchase rights.

2022 and 2021 Foreign exchange (gain) loss – These costs relate to the process of remeasuring international activity into the Company's functional currency.

2022 Change in fair value of warrant liability – Other income related to the revaluation of our warrant liability.

2022 and 2021 Gain on acquisition contingency – The gain on acquisition contingency relates to an adjustment to our estimate of obligation for future milestone payments on the Holo Surgical acquisition.

2022 and 2021 Asset impairment and abandonments – These costs relate to asset impairment and abandonments of certain long-term assets within the asset group.

2022 and 2021 Transaction and integration expenses – These costs relate to professional fees associated with the 2022 warrant financing and with the acquisition of Holo Surgical and other matters.

2022 and 2021 Inventory purchase price adjustment – These costs relate to the purchase price effects of acquired Paradigm inventory that was sold during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

2021 Severance and restructuring costs – These gain and costs relate to the reduction of our organizational structure, primarily driven by simplification of our Marquette, MI location.
Material Limitations Associated with the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income Applicable to Common Shares should not be considered in isolation, or as a replacement for GAAP measures.
Usefulness of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Investors
The Company believes that presenting EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income Applicable to Common Shares in addition to the related GAAP measures provide investors greater transparency to the information used by management in its financial decision-making.
