Quarter 2023 Financial Results
and Updates Full Year 2023 Financial Guidance
WALTHAM, Mass., May 2, 2023 Repligen Corporation (NASDAQ:RGEN), a life sciences company
focused on bioprocessing technology leadership, today reported financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023. Provided in this press release are financial highlights for the quarter, updates to our financial guidance for
the year 2023 and access information for today s webcast and conference call.
Tony J. Hunt, President and Chief Executive Officer of Repligen said,
Given the challenging macro environment, I am very happy with our overall performance in the first quarter, with year-over-year base business growth of 7% at constant currency. In the quarter, we saw strong performance from our Chromatography
and Proteins franchises, while Filtration was down reflecting the predicted drop-off in COVID-related revenue. Strategically, we continue to build out our Fluid Management portfolio with the April
acquisition of FlexBiosys, adding single-use bags to our suite of products. As we move through the first half of 2023, our R&D team is poised to deliver four new products supporting our Systems,
Analytics and Filtration businesses. Overall, we continue to be bullish on the medium- to long-term growth in bioprocessing but expect 2023 to be a challenging year due to a slower recovery in order growth, especially in AsiaPac. We now expect 4% to
8% base business growth for the company.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance
To supplement our financial statements, which are presented on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance are included in this release: revenue growth rate at constant currency; adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin; adjusted cost of sales; adjusted R&D expense;
adjusted SG&A expense; adjusted income from operations; adjusted net income; adjusted net income per share-diluted; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); and adjusted EBITDA. The Company provides organic
revenue growth rates, which exclude the impact of both foreign currency translation and the impact of acquisition revenue for current year periods that have no prior year comparable in order to facilitate a comparison of its current revenue
performance. The Company provides revenue growth rates at constant currency, which exclude the impact of foreign currency translation, in order to facilitate a comparison of its current revenue performance to its past revenue performance. To
calculate revenue growth rates in constant currency, the Company converts actual net sales from local currency to U.S. dollars using constant foreign currency exchange rates in the current and prior period.
The Company s non-GAAP financial results and/or non-GAAP guidance exclude
the impact of: acquisition and integration costs, intangible amortization costs, contingent consideration related to the Company s acquisitions, amortization of debt issuance costs related to Company s convertible debt, non-cash interest expense, and the related impact on tax of non-GAAP charges. These costs are excluded because management believes that such expenses do not have a direct
correlation to future business operations, nor do the resulting charges recorded accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are recorded.
A reconciliation of GAAP to adjusted non-GAAP financial measures is included as an attachment to this press
release. When analyzing the Company s operating performance and guidance investors should not consider non-GAAP measures as substitutable for the comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with
