(ROANOKE, VA, May 8, 2019) - Luna Innovations Incorporated (NASDAQ: LUNA), a global leader in advanced optical technology, today announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

“I continue to be proud of the Luna team and how we’ve driven performance and delivered such a strong first quarter,” said Scott Graeff, President and Chief Executive Officer of Luna. “We continue to build on the momentum we gained in 2018. The Luna team, through all levels of this organization, demonstrated leadership and delivered outstanding customer service, all while closing sales and filling the pipeline. Integration of the Micron Optics and General Photonics acquisitions is going smoothly. It is clear that we acquired excellent talent, strong capabilities and assets that are both strategic and synergistic. In addition, performance in Adjusted EBITDA is a good demonstration of the accretion delivered by our recent acquisitions. Overall, this is a great start to our fiscal 2019.”


First-quarter Fiscal 2019 Financial Summary
Financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 reflect strong momentum entering the fiscal year. These results include a full quarter of the business of Micron Optics, Inc. ("MOI"), acquired in October 2018, and one month of the operations of General Photonics ("GP"), acquired on March 1, 2019. Revenue and expenses





related to the Company's optoelectronics business, which was divested in July 2018, are classified as discontinued operations in the Company's results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018:

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income can be found in the schedules included in this release.

Products and licensing revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019, increased compared to the prior year period due partially to the inclusion of incremental revenues from the acquisitions of both MOI in October 2018 and GP at the beginning of March 2019. In addition, products and licensing revenue benefited from continued growth in sales of Luna's fiber optic-based sensing products, including its ODiSI products. Technology development revenues increased for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the prior-year period due to growth in various government research programs surrounding applications of optical sensing and advanced materials and Luna's success in winning related research contracts.

The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to $0.9 million in transaction-related costs associated with the acquisition of GP and $1.8 million of expenses associated with the operations of MOI and GP. Neither of these acquisitions were present in the first quarter of 2018.

Pre-tax loss from continuing operations increased to $(0.7) million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $(0.3) million for the prior year fiscal quarter due primarily to transaction-related expenses associated with the acquisition of GP.






Income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2019, was due to a one-time non-cash benefit resulting from a reduction in the valuation allowance associated with the company's net deferred tax asset following the acquisition of GP.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2019, was $1.0 million, or $0.03 per fully diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per fully diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in net income attributable to common stockholders was driven by improved overall performance and included the $1.9 million income tax benefit from the release of valuation allowance, partially offset by $0.9 million of transaction-related costs associated with the acquisition of GP. Net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2019, also included $0.5 million of non-cash expenses for share-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets associated with the acquisitions of MOI and GP.

Adjusted EBITDA was $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $(0.1) million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

2019 Full-year Outlook:
Luna reaffirms:
Total revenues in the range of $60 million to $65 million for full fiscal 2019; and
Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $6.0 million to $6.5 million for full fiscal 2019.

Luna is not providing an outlook for net income, which is the most directly comparable generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") measure to Adjusted EBITDA, because changes in the items that Luna excludes from net income to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, such as share-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, tax expense, and significant non-recurring charges, among other things, can be dependent on future events that are less capable of being controlled or reliably predicted by management and are not part of Luna's routine operating activities.

The outlook above does not include any future acquisitions, divestitures, or unanticipated events.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In evaluating the operating performance of its business, Luna’s management considers Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain charges and credits that are required by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding the effect of certain non-cash expenses and items that Luna believes may not be indicative of its operating performance, because either they are unusual and Luna does not expect them to recur in the ordinary course of its business, or they are unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course. Adjusted EBITDA 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. Adjusted EBITDA has been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the table following the financial statements attached to this press release.

The statements in this release that are not historical facts constitute “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks and uncertainties.

The statements made in this release are based on information available to Luna as of the date of this release and Luna undertakes no obligation to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this release.
