Allurion Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ALUR) (“Allurion” or the “Company”), a company dedicated to ending obesity, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024 and provided a business update.

Recent Company Highlights and Outlook

• Reported initial data on the combination of the Allurion Program with low-dose GLP-1s showing optimization of muscle mass and GLP-1 adherence and announced plans to perform additional prospective studies on the combination approach
• Fourth quarter 2024 revenue of $5.6 million and full year revenue of $32.1 million, consistent with preannouncement on January 14, 2025
• Fourth quarter 2024 operating expenses of $19.6 million, a decrease of 39% compared to the same period in the prior year, and included one-time restructuring charges of $3.8 million
• Full-year 2024 procedure volume growth of 4%, above previously issued guidance, despite the reduction in operating expenses compared to prior year
• Cleared to resume sales in France on February 12, 2025
• Positive topline readout for AUDACITY FDA clinical trial, setting stage for submission of pre-market approval (“PMA”) application
• Recent financings expected to fund business through potential FDA approval of the Allurion Balloon in 2026
• Advanced R&D pipeline with the launch of next-generation Allurion Balloon with smaller capsule size and increased radiopacity
• 2025 revenue guidance of approximately $30 million with a reduction of approximately 50% in operating expenses compared to 2024

“In 2024, we restructured and refocused Allurion for the future and have been thrilled with the recent milestones we have achieved,” said Dr. Shantanu Gaur, Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “The initial results on the combination of the Allurion Program with low-dose GLP-1s, clearance to resume sales in France, and positive topline readout from the AUDACITY trial were all significant moments for our company. Momentum built in the fourth quarter as our new commercial strategy began to take hold, and procedure volume grew most in regions where GLP-1s are relatively mature in the market, suggesting, we believe, that patients are entering the funnel seeking either an alternative or combination approach to weight loss.

“As the first quarter comes to a close, we see further momentum building and a 2025 that is rich in potential catalysts,” continued Dr. Gaur. “With our recent financings complete, we believe we have a cash runway through becoming EBITDA positive and receiving FDA approval of the Allurion Balloon. And, as we initiate prospective studies on our combination approach, advance our PMA application through the FDA, and set the stage for profitability, I have no doubt we are building out an exciting future for Allurion.”

Fourth Quarter Financial Results

Total revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $5.6 million, compared to $8.2 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year decrease in revenue was primarily due to the temporary suspension of sales in France and macroeconomic headwinds in certain markets leading to lower re-order rates.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $2.5 million, or 45% of revenue, compared to $6.4 million, or 78% of revenue, for the same period in 2023. Gross profit for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024 was negatively impacted by the reduction in revenue in the period and lower production volumes, which resulted in less manufacturing labor and overhead being absorbed into inventory costs. We also recorded an adjustment of excess and obsolete scrap related to inventory on hand with a shelf life of less than six months, which was primarily due to the reduction in revenue and temporary suspension of sales in France.

For the full-year ended December 31, 2024, gross profit was $21.5 million, or 67% of revenue. Gross profit margin is expected to expand in 2025 with inventory levels normalizing and sales resuming in France.

Sales and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were $7.9 million, compared to $10.7 million for the same period in 2023, and included $3.1 million of restructuring costs. The reduction in expense was primarily driven by increased operating efficiency and the restructuring initiatives implemented during the fourth quarter of 2024, which re-focused spend on more efficient channels.

R&D expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were $4.1 million, compared to $6.1 million for the same period in 2023, and included $0.3 million of restructuring costs. The reduction was primarily driven by reduced costs related to the AUDACITY trial and restructuring initiatives implemented during the fourth quarter.

G&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were $7.7 million, compared to $15.4 million for the same period in 2023, and included restructuring and financing costs of $1.1 million. The reduction was primarily driven by decreases in bad debt expense and in stock-based compensation and the restructuring initiatives implemented during the fourth quarter.

Loss from operations for the fourth quarter was $17.1 million, compared to $25.7 million for the same period in 2023, and included $4.6 million of restructuring and financing costs. The reduction was driven by restructuring initiatives implemented during the fourth quarter.

Cash balance on December 31, 2024 was $15.4 million.
