DexCom’s Revenue UP, Losses Down for Recent Quarter, Year

DexCom Inc., a biotech company specializing in glucose monitoring, reported revenue of $160 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013, a 60 percent increase from 2012, while its losses were down considerably.

With rising revenue, DexCom appears to be approaching profitability.

The company reported net losses of $2.6 million, or 4 cents per share, and $29.8 million, or 42 cents per share, for the three and 12 months ended Dec. 31, 2013. Those results are down from net losses of $8.5 million, or 12 cents per share, and $54.5 million, or 79 cents per share, for the like three and 12 months in 2012. The net loss for 2013 included $35 million in noncash expenses, consisting primarily of share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, the company said.

Product gross profit totaled $34.1 million for fourth quarter 2013 and $99 million for 2013, compared with $17.2 million and $44.7 million for the like three and 12 months in 2012.

As of Dec. 31, 2013, Dexcom had $54.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
