"I'm pleased to report another strong quarter of revenue and EBITDA growth marking solid performance across all aspects of our business. We also had a number of key milestone achievements recently, including a successful follow-on offering and the release of our Inogen At Home oxygen concentrator," said President and Chief Executive Officer, Raymond Huggenberger. "For the first nine months of 2014, revenues reflect nearly 50% year-over-year growth and I am encouraged by the strong momentum of our business model. Inogen is the only manufacturer currently offering a portable oxygen concentrator directly to consumers in the United States, and our patient-centric programs have been successful in driving strong demand and brand awareness."

Third Quarter Financial Results

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2014 rose 48.6% to $29.4 million, from $19.8 million in same period in 2013. Revenue growth reflected continued strong performance on the top-line and high growth in all segments. Business-to-business sales in the United States grew 92.6% year-over-year and represented the fastest growing segment in the quarter.

Sales revenue was $19.4 million in the third quarter of 2014, up from $12.1 million, a 60.1% increase from the 2013 period, due to strong demand across all sales segments. Direct-to-consumer sales were $7.1 million, domestic business-to-business sales were $5.5 million, and international sales were $6.8 million, reflecting growth rates of 51.2%, 92.6%, and 48.9%, respectively, in the quarter versus the comparative period in 2013. Total units sold increased to 8,800 for the third quarter of 2014, reflecting growth of 66.0% over the same quarter in 2013.

Rental revenue was $10.0 million in the third quarter of 2014, up from $7.6 million, a 30.4% increase from the 2013 period, primarily due to the 39.6% growth in the rental patient population in the comparative period.

Gross margin for the third quarter was 49.8%, reflecting strong business-to-business and direct-to-consumer sales in Inogen's total revenue mix. Sales gross margin for the third quarter was 47.8%, up from 44.4% for the 2013 period. The improvement in sales margin reflected lower average cost of goods sold, partially offset by increased domestic business-to-business sales mix of our sales revenues, which has a lower margin than direct-to-consumer sales. Rental gross margin for the third quarter was 53.9%, a 20 basis point improvement from the second quarter of 2014.

Operating expense was $11.1 million in the third quarter of 2014 versus $8.8 million in the same period of 2013, a 26.6% increase. Higher operating expenses were attributed to increased investments in commercialization activities to drive sales and new rentals, support costs for our existing patient base, activities focused on the launch of the Inogen At HomeTM, as well as incremental costs associated with becoming a public company.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $7.2 million, up 119.2% from the same period in the prior year and representing a 24.6% return on revenue, demonstrating substantial cost leverage across sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative expenses.

In the third quarter of 2014, Inogen had a tax provision expense of $1.3 million compared to a tax provision expense of $0.04 million in the third quarter of 2013. Inogen revalued its deferred tax asset valuation allowance at year end 2013, which resulted in a one-time tax benefit of $21.8 million. This change impacted Inogen's effective tax rate for 2014 and going forward. Accordingly, in the third quarter of 2014, Inogen had a higher effective tax rate of 38.6% versus an effective tax rate of 5.3% in third quarter of 2013.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $2.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted common share, compared with $0.8 million, or $0.05 per diluted common share on a pro-forma non-GAAP basis, in the same period in 2013. Despite the higher effective tax rate, our net income increased 175.6%.

Inogen ended the third quarter with $56.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $12.9 million from the second quarter, primarily associated with the repayment on a term loan debt financing that had $12.7 million outstanding as of June 30, 2014.

Year-to-Date Results

Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 rose 49.8% to $83.4 million, up from $55.7 million in the first nine months of 2013. Sales revenue was $54.7 million, up from $33.8 million, a 62.1% increase from the first nine months of 2013. Rental revenue was $28.7 million, up from $21.9 million, a 30.9% increase from the same period in 2013. Year-to-date net income was $5.3 million, reflecting a 6.4% return on revenues. Diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders was $0.22 for the first nine months of 2014, or $0.27 per diluted common share on a pro-forma non-GAAP basis.

Financial Outlook for 2014

Inogen currently projects total revenue for 2014 to be in the range of $106.0 to $110.0 million, an increase of 41% to 47% over 2013 revenue. This compares to the previous revenue expectation of $102.0 to $106.0 million, which was provided on August 12, 2014. Inogen is also providing a guidance range for the full year 2015 total revenue of $130 to $135 million, representing 20% to 25% growth over the 2014 guidance mid-point of $108 million.

Adjusted EBITDA for 2014 is projected to be in the range of $21.5 to $23.0 million which is increased from the previous range of $19.0 to $20.5 million. Inogen expects to invest in additional sales and marketing resources in the fourth quarter of 2014 associated both with the launch of the Inogen At Home™ product and also to continue scaling its sales infrastructure to drive future revenues. In addition, the majority of the costs of the secondary follow-on offering occurred in the fourth quarter of 2014, which Inogen estimates to be in the range of $0.3 million to $0.5 million.

Net income for 2014 is projected to be in the range of $5.5 to $6.0 million, which is increased from the previous guidance of $4.5 to $5.5 million.

Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, among others, statements regarding Inogen's current estimates of full year 2014 and 2015 revenue; statements regarding anticipated adjusted EBITDA and net income for 2014; statements regarding anticipated demand and momentum of our business model; projections regarding Inogen's effective tax rate; and statements regarding future investments in sales and marketing resources and the scaling of sales infrastructure to drive future revenue. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from currently anticipated results, including but not limited to, risks arising from the possibility that Inogen will not realize anticipated revenue; the impact of reduced reimbursement rates in connection with the implementation of the competitive bidding and the newly released CMA rules; the possible loss of key employees, customers, or suppliers; and intellectual property risks if Inogen is unable to secure and maintain patent or other intellectual property protection for the intellectual property used in its products. In addition, Inogen's business is subject to numerous additional risks and uncertainties, including, among others, risks relating to market acceptance of its products; its ability to successfully launch new products and applications; competition; its sales, marketing and distribution capabilities; its planned sales, marketing, and research and development activities; interruptions or delays in the supply of components or materials for, or manufacturing of, its products; seasonal variations in customer operations; unanticipated increases in costs or expenses; and risks associated with international operations. Information on these and additional risks, uncertainties, and other information affecting Inogen's business and operating results are contained in Inogen's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and in Inogen's subsequent reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K, including Inogen's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. Inogen disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements except as may be required by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Inogen has presented certain financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP and also on a non-GAAP basis for the third quarter of 2014 and 2013. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, taken in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial measures, provide useful information for both management and investors by excluding certain non-cash and other expenses that are not indicative of Inogen's core operating results. Management uses non-GAAP measures to compare Inogen's performance relative to forecasts and strategic plans and to benchmark Inogen's performance externally against competitors. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of Inogen's operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Inogen encourages investors to carefully consider its results under U.S. GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Reconciliations between U.S. GAAP and non-GAAP results are presented in the accompanying table of this release. For future periods, Inogen is unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income/(loss) as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, the amounts of interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, provisions for income taxes, and certain other infrequently occurring items, such as acquisition related costs, that may be incurred in the future.
