Management Commentary
'We achieved record revenue during 2024 of $6.5 million, an increase of 116% compared to 2023, thanks to the hard work of our fertility teams at our clinics across the U.S.,' commented Steve Shum, CEO of INVO Fertility. 'Importantly, we have dramatically streamlined and improved our fertility-based operating structure to move the Company towards positive cash flow. In fact, Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2024 was the best quarterly period in the Company's recent history showing an improvement of approximately $570,000 from the comparable period of a year ago.'
'Following our announcement to divest a majority stake in NAYA TX, we have refocused our efforts towards being a fertility company to continue capitalizing on the favorable market trends and recent policy developments that underscore the importance of fertility care. Leveraging the success of our existing three operating fertility centers in Wisconsin, Georgia and Alabama, we are actively pursuing expansion into additional markets. Our planned expansion comes at a pivotal moment given the further declines in the U.S. fertility rate and rising public demand for solutions which are aligned with our objective to expand access to care for patients in need.'
Return to Focus on Fertility Operations
On April 14, 2025, the Company announced its decision to divest a majority stake in NAYA TX. The retained minority position is expected to provide value upside for the Company, assuming the successful clinical development of NAYA TX's bifunctional antibodies. The revised corporate structure is intended to enable both businesses to focus on their respective opportunities and operations, with the existing management team and board of directors set to lead the INVO Fertility, Inc. public company moving forward. NAYA TX will return to being a privately held biotechnology company led by its management team and board. The final separation is subject to completing definitive transaction documents and key closing conditions, including receipt of necessary approvals.
The global fertility services market is projected to grow driven by rising infertility rates, delayed parenthood, and increasing acceptance of assisted reproductive technologies (ART). In the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported a 50% increase in ART-conceived births from 2012 to 2021, with ART now accounting for 2.3% of all births.
Use of Non-GAAP Measure
Included in this press release is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, which does not include the loss from NAYA TX or corresponding merger related costs. Additional financial tables are included in the Company's 10-K, which can be found on the Company's website at https://www.invofertility.com/sec-filings/ or at https://www.sec.gov/.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. This measure is not intended to be a substitute for those financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has been included because management believes that, when considered together with the GAAP figures, it provides meaningful information related to our operating performance and liquidity and can enhance an overall understanding of financial results and trends. Adjusted EBITDA may be calculated by us differently than other companies that disclose measures with the same or similar terms. See our attached financials for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the nearest GAAP measure.
About INVO Fertility
We are a healthcare services fertility company dedicated to expanding assisted reproductive technology ('ART') care to patients in need. Our principal commercial strategy is focused on building, acquiring and operating fertility clinics, including 'INVO Centers' dedicated primarily to offering the intravaginal culture ('IVC') procedure enabled by our INVOcell® medical device ('INVOcell') and US-based, profitable in vitro fertilization ('IVF') clinics. We have two operational INVO Centers in the United States and one IVF clinic. We also continue to engage in the sale and distribution of our INVOcell technology solution into third-party owned and operated fertility clinics. The INVOcell is a proprietary and revolutionary medical device, and the first to allow fertilization and early embryo development to take place in vivo within the woman's body. The IVC procedure provides patients with a more natural, intimate, and affordable experience in comparison to other ART treatments. We believe the IVC procedure can deliver comparable results at a fraction of the cost of traditional IVF and is a significantly more effective treatment than intrauterine insemination ('IUI').
