  • GAAP net income was $1.5 million, or $0.02 per share for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $1.3 million, or $0.02 per share for the same quarter in 2014.
  • GAAP net loss was $57.6 million, or $0.72 per share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, compared to GAAP net loss of $22.4 million or $0.30 per share, for the comparable period in 2014.

Gross profit totaled $91.2 million and $278.4 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, compared to a gross profit of $59.4 million and $176.3 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014.

The GAAP net loss of $57.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 included $131.0 million in non-cash expenses, comprised primarily of a $36.5 million research and development charge for the issuance of common stock related to an upfront payment associated with the Collaboration and License Agreement (the “Verily Collaboration Agreement”) with Google Life Sciences LLC, now renamed Verily Life Sciences, and $82.7 million of share-based compensation, compared to the GAAP net loss of $22.4 million for 2014, which included $58.8 million in non-cash expenses, comprised primarily of share-based compensation. Excluding the $36.5 million research and development charge pursuant to the Verily Collaboration Agreement, the net loss for 2015 was $21.1 million, or $0.26 per share, which represent non-GAAP financial measures.

Cost of sales for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 totaled $123.6 million compared to $82.9 million in 2014, primarily due to an increased volume of product sales. Research and development expense increased by $68.1 million to $137.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $69.4 million in 2014. Changes in research and development expense included the $36.5 million research and development charge pursuant to the Verily Collaboration Agreement, additional payroll costs and $11.5 million in additional non-cash share-based compensation. Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $69.6 million to $198.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $128.4 million in 2014, with the change primarily due to additional payroll and marketing costs, and $17.6 million in additional non-cash share-based compensation. As of December 31, 2015, DexCom had $115.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities.

Statement regarding use of non-GAAP financial measures

DexCom reports non-GAAP results for net income and net income per basic share in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. DexCom’s financial measures under GAAP include a substantial non-cash research and development charge pursuant to the Verily Collaboration Agreement listed in the itemized reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release. Management believes that presentation of operating results that excludes this item provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of DexCom’s core operating results and comparison of operating results across past and future reporting periods.

These non-GAAP measures may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. DexCom believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with its results of operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate DexCom’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. DexCom encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business.
