'Although our business continued to face headwinds during the second quarter from COVID-related restrictions adopted by healthcare facilities, we saw notable improvements in the number of patients seeking care and clinic capacity, compared to the initial months of 2021. Our team continued to address remaining COVID-related access issues by employing virtual solutions to expand adoption among both new and existing prescribers.'

to deliver strong sales growth in the second half of the year. Specifically, we continue to anticipate year-over-year revenue growth approaching 20% in the second half of 2021, driven by continued execution and improvements in the operating environment. In view of the large number of underserved patients that suffer from lymphedema, our clinically proven products and our commitment to leading in market development, we remain focused on returning to our historical track record of growth.'

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Total revenue in the second quarter of 2021 increased $15.9 million, or 45%, to $51.1 million, compared to $35.1 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase in total revenue was attributable to an increase of $14.0 million, or 45%, in sales and rentals of the Flexitouch system, and an increase of $2.0 million, or 49%, in sales and rentals of the Entre system in the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Second quarter 2021 revenue benefited from the initial stages of recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, with a portion of healthcare facilities and clinics relaxing restrictions and increasing patient throughput. The increase in second quarter revenue was further driven by improvements in salesforce productivity and effective virtual education events yielding an expanded prescriber base and an increase in Medicare patients served.

Gross profit in the second quarter of 2021 increased $11.3 million, or 45%, to $36.2 million, compared to $24.9 million in the second quarter of 2020. Gross margin was 71% of revenue, consistent with the second quarter of 2020.

Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2021 increased $3.4 million, or 10%, to $36.3 million, compared to $32.9 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by an increase in sales and marketing expense of $3.5 million, or 20%, to $20.9 million, primarily due to continued investments in our commercial team, patient training and resumed travel and entertainment expenses. In addition, research and development expense increased $0.1 million, or 9%, to $1.2 million, primarily due to an increase in clinical studies activity. The increase in these expenses was partially offset by reimbursement, general and administrative expenses, which decreased $0.2 million, or 2%, to $14.1 million, primarily due to a $3.6 million impairment charge related to the write-off of our Airwear wrap-related long-lived assets recorded in the second quarter of 2020, partially offset by a $1.9 million increase in personnel-related expenses due to increased headcount as well as a combined $1.4 million increase in occupancy costs, depreciation expense and legal fees.

Operating loss in the second quarter of 2021 decreased $7.9 million, or 99%, to $0.1 million, compared to an operating loss of $8.0 million in the second quarter of2020.

Income tax benefit in the second quarter of 2021 was $1.4 million, compared to income tax expense of $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2020. The year-over-year change was primarily due to a tax benefit related to a research and development credit recognized in the second quarter of 2021.

Net income in the second quarter of 2021 was $1.3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $13.9 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2020. Weighted average shares used to compute diluted net income/loss per share were 20.0 million and 19.3 million in the second quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA was $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2020.

Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021, increased $15.0 million, or 19%, to $93.8 million, compared to $78.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in revenue was driven by an increase of $12.8 million, or 18%, in sales and rentals of the Flexitouch system, and an increase of $2.2 million, or 24%, in sales and rentals of the Entre system for the six months ended June 30, 2021.Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021, benefited from the initial stages of recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, with a portion of healthcare facilities and clinics relaxing restrictions and increasing patient throughput, as well as an expanded prescriber base.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, which differ from financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ('GAAP').

Adjusted EBITDA in this release represents net income or loss, plus interest expense, net, or less interest income, net, less income tax benefit or plus income tax expense, plus depreciation and amortization, plus stock-based compensation expense, plus impairment charges and inventory write-offs, plus litigation defense costs and plus executive transition costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin in this release represents net margin (net income or loss divided by total revenue), plus or less the same items as with Adjusted EBITDA, but on a percentage of revenue basis. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), and Adjusted EBITDA margin to net margin, are included in this press release.

These non-GAAP financial measures are presented because the Company believes they are useful indicators of its operating performance. Management uses these measures principally as measures of the Company's operating performance and for planning purposes, including the preparation of the Company's annual operating plan and financial projections. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors as supplemental information and because they are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in its industry. The Company also believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to its management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance metric in the Company's compensation program.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as an alternative to, or superior to, net income or loss or net margin, respectively, as measures of financial performance or cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed to imply that the Company's future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as tax payments, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and certain other cash costs that may recur in the future. Adjusted EBITDA contains certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and cash costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized. In evaluating non-GAAP financial measures, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The Company's presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on the Company's GAAP results in addition to using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis. The Company's definition of these non-GAAP financial measures is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation.
