Q2 and Recent Business Highlights
•Recognized significant wins for monitoring systems, including a contract for the largest power utility company in Italy
•Secured large, follow-on, multi-unit Terahertz order for EV battery production process monitoring
•Drove significant wins in our RIO line of lasers supported by macro trends such as LiDAR
•Secured a seven-figure blanket order for polarization modules from a major data center hyper-scaler
•Named industry veteran as Managing Director for Europe, Middle East and Africa region
•Hosted Luna's first Investor Day in New York City, outlining the company's plans for future growth
2023 Full-Year Outlook
Luna is reaffirming the 2023 revenue and adjusted EBITDA outlook it originally provided on March 14, 2023:
•Total revenue of $125 million to $130 million for the full year 2023
•Adjusted EBITDA of $14 million to $18 million for the full year 2023
In addition, Luna expects total revenues in the range of $29 million to $32 million for the third quarter 2023.
Luna is not providing an outlook for net income, which is the most directly comparable 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, 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 and Adjusted EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS exclude certain charges and income that are required by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS provide 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 and Adjusted EPS 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 and Adjusted EPS have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the table following the financial statements attached to this press release.
Conference Call Information
As previously announced, Luna will conduct an investor conference call at 5:00 pm (ET) today, August 10, 2023, to discuss its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
