Summary
DexCom, Inc. (DXCM) reported a significant increase in revenue for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, driven by higher sales volumes of its continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2018, was $242.5 million, a 42% increase year-over-year, and for the six months ended June 30, 2018, revenue was $426.9 million, a 36% increase year-over-year. Despite revenue growth, the company reported an operating loss of $4.9 million for the quarter, though this was an improvement from the $13.6 million loss in the prior year's quarter. Net income for the quarter was $30.2 million, a substantial improvement from $2.9 million in the prior year, largely due to a significant unrealized gain from an equity investment in Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. Key financial highlights include a gross profit margin of 63% for the quarter, which decreased from 69% in the prior year due to increased cost of sales and inventory charges. The company's cash position remains strong, with $300.2 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2018. DexCom also highlighted its G6 system's recent FDA approval, which is expected to drive future growth. The company's liquidity is considered sufficient to fund operations through at least August 1, 2019.
