"Our fourth quarter results included not only a year-over-year revenue increase but an encouraging trend in new account openings that signaled our ability to add larger accounts and ramp new accounts more quickly. I am so proud of the progress the iRhythm team has made over the past several months since I joined the company last fall. In this short time, we have identified and begun to implement measures that we believe will enable us to accelerate growth in our core market and effectively expand our opportunity into adjacent ones. We have also begun to implement operational changes that we are confident will generate long-term, sustainable growth and enable us to scale even more efficiently," said iRhythm CEO and President, Quentin Blackford.

“We have entered 2022 with many exciting opportunities ahead of us and improved footing to better ensure we can achieve our near and longer terms goals for growth and profitability. The value we can bring to advancing the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and beyond is enormous. We are committed to delivering on that mission, as well as generating strong returns for our stakeholders," concluded Mr. Blackford.

Fourth Quarter Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2021 increased 3.8% to $81.8 million, from $78.8 million during the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily driven by Zio XT volume and continued Zio AT expansion.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $51.3 million, down from $58.3 million during the same period in 2020, while gross margins were 62.7%, down from 74.0% during the same period in 2020. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to a decrease in Zio XT Medicare reimbursement rates, and higher costs related to expanding clinical capacity.

Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $83.5 million, compared to $67.9 million for the same period in 2020 and $79.4 million in Q3 2021. The sequential increase in operating expenses was due to costs related to Verily milestones of $3.0 million.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $32.5 million, or a loss of $1.10 per share, compared with net loss of $9.7 million, or a loss of $0.33 per share, for the same period in 2020.

Full Year 2021 Financial Results

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 increased 21.7% to $322.8 million, from $265.2 million in 2020. The increase in revenue was primarily due to higher Zio XT volume and the continued Zio AT expansion.
