Biodesix Announces Fourth Quarter and Year End 2021 Results and Highlights
Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2021 Lung Diagnostic Revenue of $5.4 Million and $18.7 Million Increased 48% and 49% over the comparable 2020 periods, respectively
Full-Scale Launch of GeneStrat NGS Test in January 2022
Conference Call and Webcast Today at 8:30 a.m. ET
BOULDER, CO, March 14, 2022 – Biodesix, Inc. (Nasdaq: BDSX), a leading data-driven diagnostic solutions company with a focus in lung disease, today announced its financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2021 (fiscal 2021) and provided a corporate update.
“Despite the ongoing challenges caused by the global pandemic, the fourth quarter and fiscal 2021 were very productive.” said Scott Hutton, CEO of Biodesix. “Most notably, we successfully executed on our revenue growth strategy by doubling our direct, dedicated sales force, which significantly contributed to our core lung diagnostic revenue growth of 48% and 49% for fourth quarter and fiscal 2021, respectively. We further executed on our third quarter 2021 commitment to a commercial launch of our GeneStrat NGS test in January 2022. From the clinical data standpoint, we presented new data during the fourth quarter of 2021 on our NodifyXL2® test from the prospective ORACLE study, and on our VeriStrat test from the prospective INSIGHT study. This new data truly underscores the value of both products in the real-world setting and adds to the body of evidence. We continue to be excited about the trajectory of the business, despite the challenges from the ongoing pandemic, which gives us confidence heading into 2022.”
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Financial Results
2022 Financial Outlook
The Company anticipates generating between $37.5 million to $39.5 million in total revenue in 2022.

About Biodesix
Biodesix is a leading data-driven diagnostic solutions company with a focus in lung disease. The Company develops diagnostic tests addressing important clinical questions by combining multi-omics through the power of artificial intelligence. Biodesix is the first company to offer eight non-invasive tests for patients with lung diseases. The blood based Nodify Lung® nodule risk assessment testing strategy, consisting of the Nodify XL2® and the Nodify CDT® tests, evaluates the risk of malignancy in incidental pulmonary nodules, enabling physicians to better triage patients to the most appropriate course of action. The blood based IQLung strategy for lung cancer patients integrates the GeneStrat ddPCR test, the GeneStrat NGS test and the VeriStrat® test to support treatment decisions across all stages of lung cancer with results in an unprecedented 36-72 hours, expediting time to treatment. Biodesix also leverages the proprietary and advanced Diagnostic Cortex® AI (Artificial Intelligence) platform, to collaborate with many of the world’s leading biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to solve complex diagnostic challenges in lung disease. Biodesix launched the SARS-CoV-2 ddPCR test, the Platelia SARS-CoV-2 Total Ab, and the cPass
SARS-CoV-2 Neutralization Antibody test (cPass Neutralization Test Kit, GenScript, Inc,) in response to the global pandemic and virus that impacts the lung and causes COVID-19. For more information about Biodesix, visit biodesix.com.
