“Third quarter sales reflect our leadership in lens-based refractive surgery and progress advancing our strategic priorities,” said Tom Frinzi, President and CEO of STAAR Surgical. “Our global ICL sales growth of 13% in the third quarter significantly outperformed industry procedure growth, which was negative in many markets around the world with the exception of China.2 Further, we are mindful of the potential impact the uncertain economic environment globally and world events may have on our surgeon customers and patients. As a result, we now expect fiscal 2023 ICL sales to be at the low end of our previously provided range of $320 million to $325 million.”
Frinzi continued, “We expect our current efforts will deliver our sixth straight year of sales growth and profitability in fiscal 2023 while investing in the initiatives that support development of our surgeon customers and prospects as we drive global adoption of our EVO ICL technology. Over the three-year planning horizon, our focus remains on achieving a 15% to 20% compound annual growth rate in sales as our ICL technology addresses the global myopia epidemic, continuing to take market share and growing the overall market for refractive procedures.”
Financial Overview – Q3 2023
Net sales were $80.3 million for the third quarter of 2023, up 6% compared to $76.1 million reported in the prior year quarter. The sales increase in the third quarter was driven by ICL sales growth of 13% and ICL unit growth of 14%, both as compared to the prior year period. Other Product sales for the third quarter of 2023 were ($0.8) million compared to $4.1 million in the prior year quarter. The $4.9 million change in Other Product sales reflects a $2.4 million reduction in Cataract IOL sales and a $2.4 million reduction in other product sales due to decreased sales of cataract injector parts and increased sales return reserves. ICL sales were $81.1 million for the third quarter of 2023.
Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2023 was 79.2% compared to the prior year quarter of 79.5%. Factors impacting gross margin in the third quarter of 2023, as compared to the prior year quarter, include increased sales return reserves and period costs associated with manufacturing projects, partially offset by product and geographic sales mix.
Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2023 were $57.3 million compared to the prior year quarter of $46.8 million. General and administrative expenses were $19.3 million compared to the prior year quarter of $14.0 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to increased compensation related expenses, outside services and facilities costs. Selling and marketing expenses were $26.6 million compared to the prior year quarter of $23.1 million. The increase in selling and marketing expenses is due to increased advertising and promotional expenses and compensation expenses, partially offset by decreased trade show expenses. Research and development expenses were $11.5 million compared to the prior year quarter of $9.6 million. The increase in research and development expenses is due to increased compensation related expenses and clinical trial expenses related to U.S. post-approval studies.
Net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $4.8 million or $0.10 per diluted share compared with net income of $10.3 million or $0.21 per diluted share for the prior year quarter. The year over year decrease in net income is attributable to higher operating expenses partially offset by higher gross profit and other income (expense). Adjusted Net Income for the third quarter of 2023 was $15.0 million or $0.30 per diluted share compared to $18.1 million or $0.37 per diluted share for the prior year quarter. The reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided in the financial tables included with this release.
Cash, cash equivalents, and investments available for sale at September 29, 2023, totaled $201.7 million, compared to $225.5 million at end of the fourth quarter of 2022.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes supplemental Non-GAAP financial information, which STAAR believes investors will find helpful in understanding its operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
“Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Net Income for ICL” exclude the following items that are included in “Net Income” as calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”): Cataract IOL sales return reserve, Cataract IOL excess inventory reserves, Cataract IOL intangible impairment, and income tax benefit on Cataract IOL Adjusted Net Income also excludes gain or loss on foreign currency transactions, stock-based compensation expenses, and valuation allowance adjustments (if any). Management believes that “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Net Income for ICL” are useful to investors in gauging the outcome of the key drivers of the business performance: the ability to increase sales revenue and our ability to increase profit margin by improving the mix of high value products while reducing the costs over which management has control.
Management has excluded accounting adjustments related to exiting the Company’s non-core Cataract IOL business. These accounting adjustments include sales return reserve, excess inventory reserves, an intangible impairment charge related to cataract IOLs and the associated tax benefit of these adjustments. The Company has excluded these items in order to focus on its core ICL business as the Company will continue tapering the manufacturing of cataract IOLs, though it will continue to support these products through the end of 2023, as supplies permit. Management believes that disclosing Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income for ICL excluding these accounting adjustments is useful to investors in gauging the performance of its core ICL business.
For the reasons referenced above in connection with calculating Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income for ICL, management also supplements the Company’s GAAP consolidated financial statements and GAAP financial measures with other Non-GAAP financial measures, comprising of Adjusted Net Sales, Adjusted Cost of Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Expenses, Adjusted Income Tax Provision, which in each case exclude the impact of any accounting adjustments related to the exiting of the Company’s non-core Cataract IOL business. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight into the ongoing financial results of its business which investors find useful to gauge the performance of its core ICL business.
Management has also excluded from the calculation of Adjusted Net Income gains and losses on foreign currency transactions because of the significant fluctuations that can result from period to period as a result of market driven factors. Stock-based compensation expenses consist of expenses for stock options and restricted stock under the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718. Valuation allowance adjustments can occur from time to time based on forecasted changes in operating results until all net operating loss carryforwards are fully utilized. In calculating Adjusted Net Income, STAAR excludes stock-based compensation expenses and valuation allowance adjustments (if any) because they are non-cash expenses and because of the considerable judgment involved in calculating their values. In addition, these expenses tend to be driven by fluctuations in the price of our stock and not by the same factors that generally affect our other business expenses.
The Company also uses Constant Currency as a Non-GAAP financial measure to exclude the effects of currency fluctuations on net sales. The Company conducts a significant part of its activities outside the U.S. It receives sales revenue and pays expenses principally in U.S. dollars, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and euros. The exchange rates between dollars and non-U.S. currencies can fluctuate greatly and can have a significant effect on the Company’s results when reported in U.S. dollars. In order to compare the Company’s performance from period to period without the effect of currency, the Company will apply the same average exchange rate applicable in the prior period, or the “constant currency” rate to sales or expenses in the current period as well. Because changes in currency are outside of the control of the Company and its managers, management finds this Non-GAAP measure useful in determining the long-term progress of its initiatives and determining whether its managers are achieving their performance goals. The Company believes that the Non-GAAP constant-currency sales results measures provided in this press release are similarly useful to investors to give insight on long term trends in the Company’s performance without the external effect of changes in relative currency values. The table provided in this press release shows sales results calculated in accordance with GAAP, the effect of currency, and the resulting Non-GAAP measure expressed in constant currency.
