    New management team implements significant restructuring to focus on profitable growth, efficiency, and scale

    19% pro forma1 volume growth vs. 2Q 2021

    Sema4 to host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET

    STAMFORD, Conn., Aug. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sema4 Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:SMFR) ("Sema4"), a health insights company, today announced a series of corporate realignments, business highlights, and financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

    "We saw strong volume growth in both our reproductive health and recently acquired pediatrics and rare disease businesses, which delivered on record volumes. The underlying performance of the legacy GeneDx business is meeting our internal expectations and tracking ahead of our previously issued guidance. In order to drive Sema4 toward profitable growth, we have made strategic decisions since last updating the market during our first quarter 2022 conference call in May," said Katherine Stueland, Chief Executive Officer of Sema4.

    The company is on track to deliver against its previously announced cost savings target of approximately $50 million in 2022. With additional initiatives underway, the company will be on target to achieve more than $150 million in annualized savings and approximately $200 million in cumulative savings by the end of 2023.

    Led by Sema4's new Transformation Management Office, the actions taken by the company include:

    • Exiting the somatic tumor testing business, including the planned closure of the clinical laboratory in Branford, CT, effective December 31, 2022. This business line represents less than 1% of the company's revenue and approximately $35 million in annual expense.
    • Eliminating approximately 250 positions, representing approximately 13% of its workforce. Combined with the prior reductions in force in the first half of 2022, the company has eliminated approximately 30% of roles from the legacy Sema4 business.
    • Moving hereditary cancer testing operations from Stamford, CT to Gaithersburg, MD at the end of the third quarter of 2022. The company believes this effort will improve gross margins by leveraging superior automation capabilities in the clinical laboratory in Gaithersburg.
    • Reorganizing the commercial team to deploy a more productive and data-driven strategy in support of profitable growth.

    Moving forward, Sema4 will focus on building the company's health insights business by delivering a portfolio of genomic and data solutions to guide patients through their family health journey. With new leadership and strategy, Sema4 will also work with its founding health system partners to develop scalable plans for data generation and broad utilization of testing services, as well as productize offerings for biopharma partnerships.

    "Our mission is to unlock insights from data, leading to healthier lives. To do that, we're making pivotal decisions to strengthen our foundation and finances. Since May, our new management team has been assessing the overall operating model, looking at the profitability profile of each line of business. We are clear-eyed about the opportunities we have today to make a positive impact on more patients by focusing on our strengths and in areas where we have operational scale, competitive advantage, and scientific leadership," said Ms. Stueland. "As we look forward, Sema4 will have a dramatically improved cost structure and a more targeted commercial effort supported by an optimized product development strategy. This will enable us to continue to accelerate the use of genomics and leverage clinical data to enhance the standard of care through the more extensive use of precision medicine."

    Second Quarter & Recent Highlights

    "During the second quarter, we experienced strong underlying demand for our core testing services, including carrier screening, non-invasive prenatal screening, and our pediatric and rare disease franchises, with pro forma volume growth of 19%," said Rich Miao, Interim Chief Financial Officer of Sema4.

    Highlights include:

    • Testing volumes on a pro forma basis were up 19% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021, with 132,622 tests resulted (excluding COVID-19 tests)1.
    • Testing volumes on a reported basis were up 63% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021, with 117,838 tests resulted (excluding COVID-19 tests)1.
    • Workforce reduced to approximately 1,600 employees and exiting the somatic testing business to help achieve the targeted $50 million of cost savings in 2022.
    • Published the first data-driven study to predict preeclampsia events throughout the pregnancy journey with models developed from large-scale electronic medical record data.

    Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

    Total revenue for the second quarter of 2022 was $36.2 million compared to $47.0 million in the second quarter of 2021. Excluding the $30.1 million of prior period revenue adjustments recorded in the second quarter of 2022 due to our change in estimates, total revenue would have been $66.3 million for the quarter.

    Pro forma revenue in the second quarter of 2022, assuming GeneDx's results were included for the full applicable quarter, excluding COVID-19 related revenue and the $30.1 million of prior period revenue adjustment would have been $78.1 million compared to $72.8 million in the second quarter of 2021.

    Net loss in the second quarter of 2022 was ($85.7) million. Adjusted net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was ($72.9) million compared to ($43.5) million in the same period of 2021.

    Total cash and cash equivalents were $285 million as of June 30, 2022 and the company's $125 million revolving credit facility remains undrawn, bringing total liquidity to $410 million. As of August 9, 2022, Sema4 had 380,641,510 outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

    Fiscal Year 2022 Guidance

    The company now expects fiscal year 2022 reported revenue to be $245-255 million, reflecting the inclusion of GeneDx's results for the eight months of ownership in 2022. Embedded in this revenue guidance is a $24 million reduction in revenue due to our estimated change of Sema4's revenue related to periods prior to 2022 and a more conservative outlook on volumes and pricing trends within our reproductive health product lines for the remainder of the year.

    Sema4 is updating its 2022 adjusted gross margin target and now expects full year 2022 adjusted gross margin to be in the range of 4-9%, inclusive of the $24 million reduction in revenue due to our estimated change in revenue related to periods prior to 2022. Excluding this revision would imply an adjusted gross margin in the range of 11-16%.

    The company expects second half 2022 revenue in the range of $154-164 million, and second half 2022 adjusted gross margin in the range of 15-20%. The company expects to end 2022 with more than $165 million of cash and cash equivalents and total liquidity of over $290 million.

    Leadership Change

    • Sema4 also announced changes to its management team and governance:
      • Founder Eric Schadt is resigning from his roles as President and Chief Research & Development Officer, as well as his position as a Director of the company, effective today.
      • Matthew Davis, former Head of AI & Data at Invitae Corp., is joining the company as Chief Technology & Product Officer. Mr. Davis will work in close partnership with Chief Science Officer Gustavo Stolovitzky to drive scientific and product innovation to deliver on the company's data strategy for health systems and biopharma partners.

    "We would not be where we are today without Eric's vision. He conceived Sema4 and led its rapid growth from a spin out of Mount Sinai to a publicly held company," said Ms. Stueland. "As we move into this new phase of commercial scale fueled by customer-centric scientific innovation, I'm excited about the essential role that Matt and Gustavo will play in helping us shape a truly pioneering future of healthcare."

    Webcast and Conference Call Details

    Sema4 will host a conference call today, August 15, 2022, at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Investors interested in listening to the conference call are required to register online. A live and archived webcast of the event will be available on the "Events" section of the Sema4 investor relations website at https://ir.sema4.com/.
