ATLANTA, GA – (August 8, 2024) – Artivion, Inc. (NYSE: AORT), a leading cardiac and vascular surgery company focused on aortic disease, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

“In the second quarter, we continued to make substantial progress on our strategic growth initiatives to drive sustained and profitable growth, and we further solidified our position as the leader in the aortic disease space. Revenue growth in the second quarter was driven by year-over-year constant currency growth in On-X of 15% and stent grafts of 13%, both compared to the second quarter of 2023. We also saw continued revenue strength across Latin America and Asia Pacific, which grew 25% and 15%, respectively, in the second quarter on a constant currency basis compared to the same period last year. In addition to our strong revenue performance, adjusted EBITDA grew 35% this quarter, demonstrating our ability to scale the business and continue to expand adjusted EBITDA margins,” said Pat Mackin, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Mackin concluded, “Given our second quarter performance, we are raising our full year revenue and adjusted EBITDA expectations for 2024.”

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2024 were $98.0 million, an increase of 10% on both a GAAP basis and constant currency basis, both compared to the second quarter of 2023.
Page 1 of 10



Net loss for the second quarter of 2024 was ($2.1) million, or ($0.05) per fully diluted common share, compared to net loss of ($3.4) million, or ($0.08) per fully diluted common share for the second quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $2.9 million, or $0.07 per fully diluted common share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $2.3 million, or $0.06 per fully diluted common share for the second quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2024 includes pretax losses related to foreign currency revaluation of $0.9 million.

2024 Financial Outlook
Artivion is raising its revenue guidance range and now expects constant currency revenue growth of between 10% to 12% for the full year 2024, compared to the 9% to 12% previously provided. Growth rates are compared to 2023. The Company expects revenues to be in the range of $388 to $396 million compared to the previously articulated range of $386 to $396 million. At current rates, the Company expects negligible year-over-year currency impact on the full year 2024 revenues.

Additionally, Artivion is raising its adjusted EBITDA guidance range and now expects growth of between 28% and 34% for the full year 2024, compared to the 26% to 34% previously provided. Growth rates are compared to 2023. The Company expects adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $69 to $72 million compared to the previously articulated range of $68 to $72 million.

The Company's financial performance for 2024 and future periods is subject to the risks identified below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP general, administrative, and marketing expenses, and free cash flows. Investors should consider this non-GAAP information in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. In addition, this non-GAAP financial information may not be the same as similar measures presented by other companies. The Company's non-GAAP revenues are adjusted for the impact of changes in currency exchange. The Company’s non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP general, administrative, and marketing, and free cash flows results exclude (as applicable) depreciation and amortization expense, interest income and expense, stock-based compensation expense, loss or gain on foreign currency revaluation, income tax expense or benefit, corporate rebranding expense, business development, integration, and severance income or expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, and non-cash interest expense. The Company generally uses non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's review of the operational performance of the company and as a basis for strategic planning. Company management believes that these non-GAAP presentations provide useful information to investors regarding unusual non-operating transactions, the operating expense structure of the Company's existing and recently acquired operations, without regard to its on-going efforts to acquire additional complementary products and businesses, and the transaction and integration expenses incurred in connection with recently acquired and divested product lines, and the operating expense structure excluding fluctuations resulting from foreign currency revaluation and stock-based compensation expense. The Company believes it is useful to exclude certain expenses because such amounts in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of its business operations or can vary significantly between periods as a result of factors such as impact of recent acquisitions, non-cash expense related to amortization of previously acquired tangible and intangible assets, and any related adjustments to their carrying values. The Company has adjusted for the impact of changes in currency exchange from certain revenues to evaluate comparable product growth rates on a constant currency basis. The Company does, however, expect to incur similar types of expenses
Page 2 of 10


and currency exchange impacts in the future, and this non-GAAP financial information should not be viewed as a statement or indication that these types of expenses will not recur. Company management encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety, including the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

Webcast and Conference Call Information
The company will hold a teleconference call and live webcast on August 8, 2024, at 4:30 p.m. ET to discuss the results, followed by a question and answer session.

Forward Looking-Statements
Statements made in this press release that look forward in time or that express management's beliefs, expectations, or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements reflect the views of management at the time such statements are made. These statements include, but are not limited to, those regarding our full year revenue expectations and our confidence in our ability to meet or exceed our adjusted EBITDA target for 2024; the timeline for regulatory approval for AMDS and other products; that our revenues for the full year 2024 will be in the range of $388 and $396 million, representing revenue growth of between 10% to 12% compared to 2023 on a constant currency basis; expect, at current exchange rates, negligible currency impact on the 2024 full year revenues; and expect non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to increase between 28% and 34% for the full year 2024 compared to 2023, resulting in non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in the range of $69 to $72 million in 2024. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations, including, but not limited to, the unpredictability of the timing and outcome of regulatory decisions, the benefits anticipated from the Ascyrus Medical LLC transaction and Endospan agreements and our operational improvements in our tissue and stent graft business may not be achieved at all or at the levels we anticipate or had originally anticipated; the benefits anticipated from our clinical trials and regulatory approvals may not be achieved or achieved on our anticipated timelines; and the benefits anticipated from our expansion into APAC and LATAM may not be achieved or achieved on our anticipated timelines. These risks and uncertainties include the risk factors detailed in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Artivion does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
