Repligen Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results
and Updates Full Year 2023 Financial Guidance
WALTHAM, Mass., October 31, 2023
Repligen Corporation (NASDAQ:RGEN), a life sciences company focused on bioprocessing technology leadership, today reported financial results for its third quarter of 2023, covering the three- and nine-month fiscal periods ended
Tony J. Hunt, Chief Executive Officer of Repligen said, While the broader challenges that have dominated our industry over
the last twelve months continued in the third quarter, we saw positive signs of recovery. Our order book strengthened by mid-quarter, delivering an overall book-to-bill of 1.07 by quarter end. In particular, orders from our Pharma customer base rebounded, with many of the projects highlighted on our second quarter call converting to purchase orders. In addition,
we continued to see momentum in the gene therapy space and delivered another growth quarter for our Analytics business. Overall, we view the third quarter as an important transition period for the company and we are cautiously optimistic about the
future in light of the strong finish on orders in the third quarter.

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:
book-to-bill ratios, revenue growth rate at constant
currency; adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted operating margin; adjusted cost of sales; adjusted R&D expense; adjusted SG&A expense; adjusted pre-tax income; adjusted income from operations; adjusted net income; adjusted earnings per share-diluted; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and EBITDA margin. The Company
provides base revenue and base revenue growth rates, which exclude COVID-related revenue, and the impact of acquisition revenue for current year periods that have no prior year comparables, 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; restructuring charges including the costs of severance; inventory write-off and accelerated depreciation; intangible amortization costs; contingent
consideration related to the Company s acquisitions; amortization of debt issuance costs related to Company s convertible debt; 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 a substitute for the comparable financial measures
prepared in accordance with GAAP.
