“With the completion of our IPO this August, we are excited to set the stage for the next evolution in the Bionano story,” said Erik Holmlin, Ph.D., CEO of Bionano. “We are seeing increasing interest in our Saphyr system, as our differentiated capabilities, including long-read and structural variant data continues to drive demand. Additionally, we continue to innovate and improve our systems, increasing our Saphyr instrument sample throughput and ease of use, also helping to drive interest and adoption. We look forward to placing additional systems as we execute upon our strategy.”
Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Total Revenue. Total revenue for the third quarter of 2018 was $2.8 million compared to $2.7 million for the same period last year, an increase of 3%.
Product Revenue. Product revenue for the third quarter of 2018 was $2.7 million compared to $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2017, an increase of 4%.
Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues for the third quarter of 2018 was $3.1 million compared to $1.7 million for the same period last year. The cost of revenue was meaningfully higher during the third quarter of 2018 due in part to a $1.3 million write-off of inventory of Irys, Bionano’s prior-generation instrument. None of this inventory write-off is applicable to the inventory of Saphyr, the only instrument that Bionano sells today. Excluding the $1.3 million inventory write-off, cost of revenues for the third quarter of 2018 would be $1.8 million.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2018 were $5.7 million compared to $6.1 million in the same period last year, a decrease of 6%. The decrease in operating expense is due in part to the cost-saving initiatives begun late last year.
Operating Loss. Operating loss for the third quarter of 2018 was $6.0 million compared to $5.0 million for the same period last year. Excluding the $1.3 million inventory write-off, operating loss for the third quarter of 2018 would be $4.7 million, a decrease of 7% relative to the same period last year.
Year-to-Date 2018 Financial Results
Total Revenue. Total revenue for the first nine months of 2018 was $8.0 million compared to $6.7 million for the same period last year, an increase of 20%.
2

Excluding inventory write-offs of $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2018 and $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2017, cost of revenues for the first nine months of 2018 would be $4.4 million compared to $4.1 million for the same period last year.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the first nine months of 2018 were $16.6 million compared to $20.1 million for the same period last year, a decrease of 18%.

Excluding the inventory write-offs, operating loss for the first nine months of 2018 would be $13.0 million compared to $17.6 million for the same period last year, a decrease of 26%.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Balance on September 30, 2018
The cash and cash equivalents balance on September 30, 2018 was $20.7 million, inclusive of the proceeds from the IPO which includes the exercise of the underwriters’ full overallotment option in August 2018.
