“2021 was a very productive year for RxSight®. We accelerated growth in the adoption and utilization of our Light Adjustable Lens, completed a successful IPO, introduced key product advancements like ActivShield™, and rapidly expanded our U.S. commercial team. These accomplishments, coupled with the LAL’s unique ability to deliver precisely customized vision for patients, as well as to expand premium cataract revenue for doctors and practices, have created substantial momentum for RxSight to drive continued growth in 2022,” said Ron Kurtz, CEO and President of RxSight.
Fourth Quarter Financial Results
In the fourth quarter of 2021, total revenue was $8.4 million, an increase of 71% compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 and 46% growth over the prior quarter ended September 30, 2021. The revenue growth as compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, was due to a 96% increase in the number of LDDs sold and 88% increase in the number of LALs sold during the fourth quarter of 2021.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $2.9 million, or 34% of revenue compared to gross profit of $1.4 million, or 28% for the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase in gross profit was due to the increase in the number of LALs and LDDs sold.
Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $17.5 million, an 81% increase from $9.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily driven by higher headcount in sales and marketing to support the growth of the business, costs of operating as a public company and an increase of $1.7 million in stock-based compensation expense.
In the fourth quarter of 2021, net (loss) was $(15.7) million, or $(0.58) per diluted share on a basic and diluted basis, as compared to a net income attributable to common shareholders of $26.3 million, or $1.11 and $1.05 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Adjusted net (loss) was $(12.8) million, or $(0.47) per share on a basic and diluted basis, in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to an adjusted net (loss) of $(28.0) million, or $(7.77) per share on a basic and diluted basis in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Full Year 2021 Financial Results
Full year 2021 total revenue was $22.6 million, an increase of 54% compared to the full year of 2020. The revenue increase was due to a 56% increase in the number of LDDs sold and an 86% increase in the number of LALs sold in 2021 as compared to 2020.
Gross profit for the full year of 2020 was $4.5 million, or 20% of revenue compared to gross profit of $1.7 million, or 12% of revenue for the full year of 2020. The increase in gross profit was due to the increase in the number of LALs and LDDs sold.
Total operating expenses for the full year of 2021 were $57.3 million, a 54% increase from $37.1 million for the full year of 2020. The increase was primarily driven by higher headcount in sales and marketing to support the growth of the business, costs of operating as a public company and an increase of $3.4 million in stock-based compensation expense.
In 2021, net (loss) was $(48.7) million, or $(3.57) per share on a basic and diluted basis, as compared to a net income attributable to common shareholders of $3.4 million, or $0.91 and $0.15 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively in 2020.
Adjusted net (loss) was $(43.8) million, or $(3.22) per share on a basic and diluted basis, in 2021, compared to an adjusted net (loss) of $(58.0) million, or $(14.96) per share on a basic and diluted basis in 2020.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2021 were $159.3 million and long-term debt was $39.8 million.
Financial Outlook
RxSight projects 2022 full year revenue to be between $40.0 million and $44.0 million, full year gross margin of 35% to 36% of revenue and full year operating expenses of $86.0 million to $90.0 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we believe certain non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted net (loss), and Adjusted net (loss) per share, basic and diluted, provide useful information to investors and are useful in evaluating our operating performance. For example, we exclude stock-based compensation expense and the change in fair value of warrants because these are non-cash in nature and excluding these items provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operational performance and allows investors the ability to make more meaningful comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies.
We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance. A reconciliation is provided below for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
Adjusted Net (Loss)and Adjusted Net (Loss) Per Share
Adjusted net (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net (loss) income adjusted for (i) stock-based compensation and (ii) change in fair value of warrants. We believe Adjusted net (loss) provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and comparison with our past financial performance and is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. Adjusted net (loss) for Series G Common Stock is not impacted by the adjustments.
Reconciliations of net (loss) income to Adjusted net (loss) and the presentation of Adjusted net (loss) per share, basic and diluted, are as follows:
