Evolus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EOLS), a performance beauty company with a focus on building an aesthetic portfolio, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2024.
“We reached a significant inflection point in 2024, achieving full-year profitability1 ahead of expectations while delivering our fifth consecutive year of revenue growth exceeding 30%,” said David Moatazedi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Evolus. “Jeuveau® continues to outperform the market, driven by strong consumer loyalty and increasing adoption, and we are now entering 2025 focused on transforming Evolus into a multi-product, performance beauty company with the imminent launch of Evolysse™. The combination of Jeuveau® and Evolysse™ brings together the fastest growing neurotoxin in the U.S. with the first innovation in HA technology in a decade.”
“We are prepared to launch Evolysse™ in the second quarter and will be making significant investments in medical education and sampling to support our customers and drive adoption, with meaningful revenue contributions expected in the second half of the year,” continued Moatazedi. “At launch, Evolysse™ will be seamlessly integrated into our existing portfolio of benefits, including co-branded media and consumer rewards. This will enable customers to earn co-branded media benefits on purchases of Evolysse™ in addition to Jeuveau®. With a path toward at least $700 million in net revenue and a non-GAAP operating income margin of at least 20% by 2028, we remain focused on delivering exceptional results and creating long-term value for our shareholders.”

“Profitability” is not a measure presented in accordance with GAAP. Within this press release, “profitability” is defined as achieving positive non-GAAP operating income. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for more information on the company’s use and definitions of non-GAAP measures. |

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Evolus’ financial results are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). This press release and the reconciliation tables included in the financial schedules below include adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, and non-GAAP operating income margin. Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit excluding amortization of an intangible asset. Adjusted gross profit margin is defined as adjusted gross profit as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, and non-GAAP operating income margin exclude (i) the revaluation of contingent royalty obligations, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, and (iii) depreciation and amortization. Management believes that adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross profit margin are important measures for investors because management uses adjusted gross profit margin as a key performance indicator to evaluate the profitability of sales without giving effect to costs that are not core to our cost of sales, such as the amortization of an intangible asset. Management believes that non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss), and non-GAAP operating income margin are useful in helping to identify the company’s core operating performance and enables management to consistently analyze the period-to-period financial performance of the core business operations. Management also believes that non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, and non-GAAP operating income margin will enable investors to assess the company in the same way that management assesses the company’s operating performance against comparable companies with conventional accounting methodologies. The company’s definitions of adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, and non-GAAP operating income margin have limitations as analytical tools and may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from such non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to financial statement data presented in the financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.
For a reconciliation of our historical adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations presented herein to gross profit, gross profit margin, GAAP operating expenses and GAAP loss from operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see “Reconciliation of Gross Profit Margin to Adjusted Gross Profit Margin,” “Reconciliation of GAAP Operating Expenses to Non-GAAP Operating Expenses” and “Reconciliation of GAAP (Loss) from Operations to Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Operations” in the financial schedules below. In addition, this press release includes information regarding the company’s expected non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP operating income for the full year 2025 and non-GAAP operating income margin by 2028. Evolus has not provided a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating (loss), or non-GAAP operating income margin because a reconciliation of such measures to forward-looking GAAP operating expenses, GAAP loss from operations, and non-GAAP operating income margin respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, is not available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various reconciling items that would impact the forward-looking outlook for these non-GAAP financial measures since they have not yet occurred and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Such unavailable information could have a significant impact on Evolus’ GAAP financial results.
