Good day, ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the Sight Sciences Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Financial Results Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] As a reminder, this call is being recorded. I would now like to introduce your host for today’s conference, Philip Taylor. You may begin..
Thank you for participating in today’s call. Presenting today are Sight Sciences Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Paul Badawi; Chief Financial Officer, Jesse Selnick; and Chief Commercial Officer, Shawn O’Neil.

One, canaloplasty alone using OMNI; two, canaloplasty followed by trabeculotomy using OMNI; and three, the leading trabecular bypass implant. Because of the label limitations of trabecular bypass stents in the U.S., PRECISION will study combination cataract procedures while TRIDENT in Europe will examine standalone procedures.
As a reminder, OMNI’s current label calls for canaloplasty followed by trabeculotomy, the second arm of these studies.
We hope to use the results of these studies, if successful, to expand the indication for OMNI to include usage for canaloplasty alone, which may provide surgeons with another valuable, on-label surgical option to titrate treatment for their patients with POAG.
Unlike recent entrants into angle-based procedures, we sought and received FDA clearance for an IDE to study canaloplasty alone. We believe that FDA clearance for an expanded canaloplasty-alone label can further differentiate OMNI from the competition.
As the market leader in canal surgery, we’re executing our canaloplasty alone IDE the right way from the start by demonstrating if successful, clinical efficacy and safety, securing our desired label from the FDA and putting our patients’ needs first.
We believe this is the only way to build the canaloplasty category for meaningful, long-term value and unshakable leadership. Due to their large study populations and 2-year endpoints, final data for TRIDENT and PRECISION will be available in 3 years.
In the meantime, we are preparing numerous other articles for publication, including one based on the results of our multicenter TRACE study that examines the safety and efficacy of standalone OMNI procedures in POAGI’s with uncontrolled IOP and a previous history of combination cataract surgery with trabecular bypass implants.
Today, we will examine the potential benefits of OMNI interventions in the over 1 million now pseudophakic trabecular micro bypass stent eyes that may require further treatment as well as the general standalone population. Our publication plan in peer-reviewed journals includes numerous articles based on data from our clinical trials.
Earlier this week, Clinical Ophthalmology published an article that reported 12-month outcomes for OMNI canaloplasty followed by trabeculotomy, in conjunction with cataract surgery in a population of adult Hispanic patients with mild-to-moderate open-angle glaucoma.
The article reported a reduction in unmedicated mean IOP of 35% and a 93% reduction in average medications. Adverse events were mild, self-limiting and typical of MIGS combined with cataract surgery. We are very pleased with these outstanding results.
In parallel with our clinical efforts, we have also made a push to expand our presence at key industry conferences such as the American Glaucoma Society Meeting earlier this month and the upcoming ASCRS meeting at the end of April.
We plan to expand our presence at ophthalmologist and optometrist meetings to help educate the eye care community about the benefits of our products and our company’s mission. Our desire to improve the lives of all patients with glaucoma and dry eye disease drives our innovation.
We are developing a broad portfolio in both categories, and our goal is to offer market-leading treatment options along every step of a patient’s journey living with these incurable, life-long diseases. To do so, we will be expanding beyond devices into pharma, drug device combinations and sustained release pharmaceuticals.
We recognize that medication can be an effective first-line glaucoma treatment, if administered properly.
We believe that sustained delivery of hypotensive medications is a very promising area to innovate and have filed IP on a product that we believe could have a superior product market fit in terms of ease of application, efficacy and safety compared to existing and announced competing products.
Our early results in animal testing have been promising, and we are very excited to continue developing this product and we will share more in due course.
As the patient advances beyond medications and requires microinvasive glaucoma surgery where we have OMNI today, we are pleased to announce our plans to introduce two new MIGS products in the coming year and then we have two more in earlier stages of development.
Ultimately, we would have four surgical devices that would represent five distinct procedures, representing the broadest and most compelling product portfolio in the MIGS category. First, we have continued to innovate our flagship OMNI product and plan to launch the third generation of the OMNI device that will feature numerous design improvements.
We expect a controlled release in the second half of this year and a full launch in 2023. We will continue to improve and update OMNI on a regular basis to ensure its continued leadership position in microinvasive canal surgery.
If our ID is successful, we believe the clinical data would serve as a strong basis for us to seek FDA clearance of an expanded indication covering canaloplasty alone.
Second, while we believe OMNI’S ability to circumferentially treat all 3 points of resistance and the conventional outflow pathway cannot be surpassed and the market is increasingly recognizing canaloplasty as the foundational procedure of MIGS, we do recognize that there is interest in the market for various types of procedures.
To that end, we will be introducing a dedicated and differentiated ab interno trabeculotomy, or goniotomy device in the second half of the year. Third, moving beyond our third-generation OMNI device and the goniotomy device that we intend to release this year, we also resumed development of our implantable canalicular scaffold.
The ultimate goal of this development program is to improve the long-term efficacy of canalicular implants and scaffolds by adding new innovations for which we have already filed IP. Fourth and last but not least, we are also developing an implantable solution for advanced or refractory glaucoma.
We believe this product would be appropriate for patients whose conventional outflow pathway options have been exhausted. In summary, we believe the circumferential canal surgery is quickly becoming the foundational procedure in MIGS, both on a standalone basis and in combination with other MIGS procedures.
We are the first mover in microinvasive canal surgery and intend to keep the lead with our third-generation OMNI release later this year.
We are also in the process of developing an incredible portfolio of products around OMNI that would offer our surgeons a complete armamentarium and a full expansion of the customer company relationship with Sight Sciences. We are also innovating in dry eye. As with OMNI, we will continue to update and improve our flagship TearCare system.
We have a next-generation TearCare system in development that will include several new features such as an improved tablet-based user interface and further enhancements to our SmartLids. We plan to introduce this product in 2023.
Longer term, we are also working on several products that will help patients suffering from MGD to maintain healthy Meibomian Gland between office-based TearCare treatments. These include OTC eye drops, a prescription ointment applied to the eyelids for MGD and an at-home consumer version of TearCare.
We believe this dry eye portfolio will offer physicians and the 14 million patients diagnosed with MGD a comprehensive range of solutions to combat dry eye. We plan to schedule an Investor Day or Analyst Day or both to discuss these pipeline products in greater detail later this year.
I will now turn the call over to Jesse to discuss our fourth quarter financial results and our outlook for 2022..
one, an increase in personnel expenses as we build out our clinical and regulatory and R&D departments; two, higher contract manufacturing, lab supplies and prototype development expenses; and three, increased clinical trial activity. All three areas detailed by Paul in his comments.
We expect our R&D expense to continue to modestly increase over the near-term as we execute our clinical road map and develop the pipeline that Paul previewed.
But in a manner similar to how we developed OMNI and TearCare, our R&D process is efficient vis-a-vis what you would assume it would take to develop crown breaking products, which is the ultimate core competency of our company.
As a result of the aforementioned drivers, our loss from operations for the 3 months ended December 31, 2021, was $14.7 million compared to a loss of $8.4 million for the same period in 2020 and a loss of $14 million in the third quarter of 2021.
We had a net loss of $15.9 million or $0.34 per share in the fourth quarter of 2021 based on a weighted average post-IPO share count of 47.4 million shares. This compares to a net loss of $9.2 million or $0.97 per share for the fourth quarter of 2020 based on a weighted average pre-IPO share count of 9.4 million shares.
We ended the quarter with $260.7 million of cash and equivalents and $32.7 million of long-term debt, including $2.3 million of debt discount, so $35 million of principal amount. We are in an attractive [indiscernible] to execute upon our base plan and to opportunistically consider levers to accelerate the business. Turning to our outlook for 2022.
We expect our full year revenue to be in the range of $67 million to $75 million, representing growth of approximately 45% over 2021 at the midpoint of this guidance. This guidance for continued market-leading revenue growth reflects our level of confidence in the trajectory of both of our current products.
One of the most attractive attributes of OMNI’S business model is that the expansion of its use case across disease severities and into stand-alone procedures generates a compelling source of organic growth on its own even without new customer acquisition.
When we compare the fourth quarter of 2021 to the same period in 2020, our ordering facility base grew by over 45%. At its simplest, the remainder of our 60% of year-over-year revenue growth was driven by use case expansion. So same-store sales for lack of a better term, has a robust growth profile by itself.
Coupling that with the fact that we added 98 new ordering facilities in the fourth quarter of 2021 versus only 72 in the same period in 2020, means that the growth engine of customers beginning their trial phase with our company is better primed going into 2022 than it was in during 2021.
All that being said our guidance offset factors and the impact of slower activity due to the Omicron variant that began in December and carried into the New Year. The variant impacted us in two ways. The obvious impact is that it reduced our procedure volumes in the first part of the first quarter.
The disruption to operating room schedules has also lengthened the time it takes to get surgeons through our product adoption cycle. Our in-depth surgeon training model involves reps, proctoring and new surgeons first 10 cases.
Procedure cancellations or postponements can have cascading, knock-on effects that delay getting surgeons up the learning curve in a timely manner and moving from the trial phase to an established higher volume accounts. Typically, our reps spend 3 OR days with a surgeon to trial and train.
The average time to get on the calendar for trial Day 2 and trial Day 3 is extended by 30 days over the course of a year. However, this delay, the 30-day delay for Day 2 and Day 3 could have a greater than $2 million impact on our annual revenues.
So Omicron limited physical access to customer facilities for our reps and hindered their ability to move customers to the adoption cycle, and this is reflected in our guidance. Our guidance also takes into account the introduction of several new entrants into the MIGS market.
While we strongly believe that OMNI’S combination of safety and efficacy continues to be unmatched by legacy or new competitive products, the reality is that also witnessed amongst investors and research analysts, these new entrants have created noise and, frankly, a bit of confusion in terms of what they do, how they will be reimbursed etcetera, that will take a few months to become more clear to the market.
In the interim, we witnessed recent delays in our ability to move customers along the adoption curve and delaying the expansion of usage due to certain surgeons trialing these other products.
It’s kind of a phenomenon that’s similar to the COVID-related surgical schedule disruptions that I mentioned earlier in terms of a one-time delay and moving along the curve as opposed to something that we think has any permanent impact on our growth trajectory.
Part of what you see reflected in our revenue guidance is a range in our estimates for how long it will take for the market to revert to the more normalized and in many ways from our perspective, a better informed commercial environment that was in place through 2021.
On a quarter-by-quarter basis, we expect our revenue breakout in 2022 will be quite similar to 2021. The first quarter for both years reflects typical industry seasonality and in both years, COVID-related impacts to January results. And similar to last year, we expect revenues to be modestly sequentially decline from Q4 2021.
That being said, we fully expect the last three quarters of each year to exhibit a true review of the underlying organic growth trends in our business.
We believe that 45% top line growth in 2022 at our guidance midpoint, along with the continued development of what are our true long-term growth opportunities, which is the stand-alone MIGS market and procedure-based MGD with widespread patient access, keeps us in the very top tier of med tech companies.
I’d now like to provide some color on our anticipated investment levels in 2022. There are three primary sources of incremental investment that we’ve made heading into the year. The first area is in R&D. Where we’ve built out our R&D team and are making project-level investments to support the pipeline that Paul previewed.
Given the multiple programs we are pursuing, we estimate the in-year incremental investment from R&D will be in the mid-teens of millions for 2022. We have extraordinary conviction in the potential ROI of this incremental investment to say the least.
Secondly, we have scaled up our investment in glaucoma clinical consultants, whose primary objective is to educate the broader POAG community about the benefits of stand-alone MIGS intervention with OMNI so as to drive appropriate stand-alone cases to OMNI-trained surgeons.
As Paul mentioned, we’ve expanded our team of 20 GCCs in the field plus associated management infrastructure, up from a beta group of four who delivered encouraging results last year in select major markets. This is a critical investment in enhancing awareness, which we believe will accelerate stand-alone market development and surgeon adoption.
The final area is in market development support resources for both the stand-alone market opportunity and our market access-driven execution strategy for MGD.
This includes increases in our clinical spend in terms of both headcount and trial costs for key trials such as SAHARA, PRECISION and TRIDENT as we’ve discussed and the build-out of a world-class market access team to educate the field, payers and our customer base on the reimbursement landscape as well as marketing resources more explicitly align the market education and development as evidenced by our recently launched Don’t Wait for Too Late standalone MIGS campaign.
All in all, we anticipate these incremental investments, partially offset by higher gross profits from our growing revenues will result in about $10 million to $15 million of annualized cash burn increase over and above the levels we’ve been operating at post IPO.
Given we ended the year with a $260 million cash balance and a modest amount of debt and a rapidly growing revenue base, we feel very well capitalized to execute our growth plan and to fund this, frankly, digestible level of incremental investments.
As a reminder, with blended gross margins in the mid-80s, OMNI gross margins approaching 9% and a highly productive hunter sales force our direct profit or cash flow contribution from our sales is very healthy.
And much of this investment is truly discretionary that we believe that it will generate compelling ROIS and enable us to maintain robust growth rates for a long time. So with that, this concludes the prepared comments that we have for the call.
Paul and I will now be joined by Shawn O’Neil, our Chief Commercial Officer, to answer and take some questions. So operator, please open up the call for questions..
Thank you. [Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from the line of Joanne Wuensch with Citibank. Your line is open. Please go ahead..
Hi, can you hear me, okay?.
Yes. We can. Hey, Joanne..
Hi, how are you doing? I just want to make sure I caught a couple of the numbers that you were talking about. I got the number of active accounts, 750 in the quarter for MIGS. I got that there are roughly 550 facilities doing dry eye. But I’m looking for a couple of other pieces of information, particularly and I apologize if I missed this.
Of those 750 active accounts, can you back us into either the number of physicians and/or the percentage of procedures that are stand-alone versus concomitant?.
So I’ll take the first. We can’t track – we track trained surgeons, Joanne, but we can’t track utilizing surgeons, right? So we’ve trained, we ended – we’re currently around 1,500 trained surgeons. And there is actually recently some research that came out that estimated the total number of MIGS-trained surgeons to be 5,000.
So still a lot of runway there. And then there is – we kind of estimate about 1.3 to 1.5 surgeons per utilizing surgeons per facility at this point in time, but that’s just an estimate.
And then Paul, standalone combination?.
Yes. It’s hard for us to track with any specificity right now, stand-alone penetration.
We obviously have a number of investments we talked about that we’re making part of those in parallel with those investments were – we continue to explore ways to track our progress both internally for ourselves and also to report publicly to you all, Joanne, especially around the GCC, the team of 20 that we’ve hired. They are fully trained now.
We hired them in this quarter, and we’ve been training them over the past several months.
We’d expect for their contributions to start showing up meaningfully later this year, and Shawn can talk about that and Shawn, the metrics we will use to track the progress there?.
Yes, Joanne, as we’ve mentioned before, the CPT codes do not differentiate between a combination cataract or a stand-alone case. So we’re still looking at that data at a high level to try and gain insights, but it’s not obvious. One thing that we are doing with our GCC team is they do have a finite target list that they are going to be focusing on.
And obviously, we know what the baseline sales and activity are in those facilities and we will be able to track that over time and identify incremental growth, which is obviously one of the KPIs that we’re going to be focused on.
So we believe we will be able to take several of these data sets and then be able to crystallize them into a better answer..
Okay. I’ll leave it there. Thank you..
Thank you, Joanne..
Thank you. And our next question comes from the line of Cecilia Furlong with Morgan Stanley. Your line is open. Please go ahead..
Hi, good afternoon and thank you for taking the questions. I wanted to ask on ‘22 guidance.
one, how you’re thinking about continued expansion in your established accounts into stand-alone, how that contributes to your outlook as well as your expectation for new center adds throughout the year?.
So gave you in my comments, probably it was a mouthful, Cecilia. But we added 98 new facilities, brand-new facilities, first-time orders in the fourth quarter. That kind of pace is a pace that I think we expect to continue at a baseline minimum, right? So that should give you some color on that.
And as Shawn alluded to and Paul, like the way we build our model is we look at utilization overall, Stand-alone is obviously a really important driver. And yes, I mean everything, all of our trends point very positively towards that. We decompartmentalize our growth in terms of customer acquisition growth and use case growth.
And we feel – honestly, we feel like with these investments that we’re making and the growing market presence that sort of natural organic growth in use case is going to see tailwind actually as we continue to progress through the year and see the results of the GCC and a lot of the really focused marketing that we’re doing around the opportunity..
Great. Thank you.
And if I could follow-up as well, just on R&D, both near-term but more so as you think over the next several years with the pipeline updates you provided today, how you’re thinking about just the level of R&D investment incremental to what we were previously contemplating with the aforementioned product portfolio and clinical trials that you had previously planned?.
Yes. So low double-digit millions in terms of pipeline investment, that’s both headcount and project investment this year. So it’s fair to look at how we were trending in that area and add that to it as a good proxy for that line item.
The reality is our development process itself is very efficient and practical kind of similar to – we were very capital efficient in getting OMNI into market. I’m proud of that fact. And I think we’re working on these projects with a real similar mentality. So I think there is a lot of opportunity for a very reasonable amount of spend there..
Thank you for taking the questions..
Thanks, Cecilia..
Thank you. And our next question comes from the line of Andrew Brackmann with William Blair. Please go ahead..
Yes. Hi guys, good afternoon and thank you for taking the question. Maybe just start there on the competitive front and the trialing you expected. Jesse, I didn’t hear sort of a specific number that you are sort of anticipating in your guidance for the year, so maybe just a housekeeping around that if you have a specific number.
But I guess then bigger picture, I guess from your perspective, how do you see all of these sort of newer non-implantable devices or tools sort of impacting the market broadly. Anything that you can sort of share from a surgeon sort of perspective that you are hearing given those announcements over the last 10 months, 12 months? Thanks..
Yes. I will go to the specific question, and then I will let Paul and Shawn take the bigger picture question. And on the specific – Andrew, like it’s a factor in how we look at our model, right. Like I do think that what it does is it creates an adoption lag. What we haven’t seen is we haven’t seen share loss because of it.
But what we have seen is it’s harder – there are cases where it’s harder to get on the calendar to move people along the trialing curve. So, when you look at our range, that reflects a range of thinking about what our trial period might be.
And as you kind of know from our model, that’s just a really key driver given how high growth it is in terms of when we get people to move along to that sort of steady ordering cadence.
And so I wanted to kind of flag what the impact of that is in our model just as sort of an order of magnitude, but it doesn’t – it’s not like there is a bridge that says competitive products and competitive trialing has had x dollars of impact on us..
Yes. I will add a couple of comments. Shawn has other comments to add as well. But we are seeing it, first of all, these new entrants primarily in combination with cataract surgery and primarily being bundled or used in combination with stents. I believe that’s all we are seeing to-date.
And so for us, in response to that, as we always do, we highlight the benefits of OMNI, right. And that’s usually enough.
The comprehensive ophthalmic procedure that addresses uniquely all three points of resistance, the usability and procedural predictability based on many, many years of design iterations, a best-in-class indication for use based on highly compelling clinical data in all adult patients with POAG, combo cataract standalone, mild, moderate, advance.
So, all-in-all, for us, as we look at these things, we think it’s hard to compete with what we offer, and our commercial team does a really, really excellent job of developing unshakable relationships with our customers.
They are always doing the right things, highlighting the right things, the clinical value of OMNI always first and foremost and frankly, the lack of clinical evidence with some of these new entrants. Shawn, I don’t know if you have got anything else to add..
From a commercial standpoint, obviously, focusing on our execution from the sales, marketing and training standpoint, we are definitely continuing to focus on the value of OMNI.
I think the thing that’s important in the trial setting for your question is these being new products, they do not have clinical data nor do they have a track record of a reimbursement pathway.
So, we continue to focus on the value of OMNI, the ability to lower IOP in adult patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, also the additional benefit of the medication, potential medication reduction, all within that stable, clear reimbursement pathway with 66174.
So, our team is focused on mitigating any of that trial activity and then quickly pivoting back over to demand creation for OMNI and ultimately keeping the patient at the center of the conversation and providing the best option for the patient..
That’s great. Thank you all for that. And then maybe just sort of pivoting here to the pipeline. Obviously, a lot of new things sort of being unveiled here today and definitely warrant an Investor Day later this year, so excited about that.
But I guess maybe from your perspective, sort of on those non-implantable newer devices, those seem to be the ones that are probably closest to market. How should we be thinking about sort of the differentiation of those devices versus the sort of aforementioned newer entrants in the canal based sort of surgery that we have been talking about here.
Thanks guys..
Andrew, sorry, are you referring to our pipeline versus some of the new entrants or something else? I didn’t follow that exactly?.
Yes. So, your pipeline exactly, so the new goniotomy device and then also the second-generation or third-generation OMNI device, how are those expected to sort of compete with those newer pipeline products from competitors? Thank you..
Yes, well, I will say that. We don’t enter any category without a whole lot of thought. We don’t enter any category without the expectation to be best-in-class. That is the expectation that’s from – before we even file a patent. These are the things going through our minds.
So, we are not disclosing details, Andrew, on this call of that product or some of the other products in detail. We did want to preview it with you and everybody because we have been thinking about these things for several years. Some of them, we filed IP on them. We are now beginning to invest in them.
We have recently hired a very talented head of pipeline strategy and development. And so we wanted to preview with you, we will be speaking in detail later this year either at an Analyst Day or Investor Day or both about those details that you are asking about, but just expect whatever we are going to disclose will be compelling.
We have done it twice with OMNI and TearCare. We have a history of internally developing breakthrough products, the pipeline that we are talking about here has all been internally developed. Obviously, in the future, we will look externally. But for now, what we are talking about is internal development.
We will share details, Andrew, on it in due course..
Okay. Thanks guys and thanks for the color today..
Sure. Thanks..
Thank you. And our next question comes from the line of Matt O’Brien with Piper Sandler. Your line is open..
Hi guys. Good afternoon. This is Drew on for Matt. Thanks for taking the questions. I do just want to follow-up a little bit on the comments on the commercial delays related to the competitors.
I guess just to be clear, I mean what’s informing your view that gives you confidence that those delays are temporary? And then I guess two, have you made any tweaks at all to the commercial strategy until you have the canaloplasty label or on label for OMNI, or is it just about whether in this period till things get back to normal?.
So, from a commercial, - sorry, go ahead, Jesse..
Go ahead, Shawn..
So, from a commercial strategy standpoint, we consider, we continue to stand behind the value of OMNI addressing all three points of resistance as a key differentiator addressing the conventional offload pathway in that manner.
So, what we are doing is really being focused on continue to drive demand and focusing our strategy, especially with our investments in GCC is to expand use our SSRs to mitigate trial and continue to create demand and train new surgeons and then utilize our investment in GCC is to expand use case by educating the broader medical ECP community on making sure that patients are aware that there is another alternative for their earlier surgical intervention for their mild-to-moderate glaucoma needs.
So, from that standpoint, we are being consistent and continue to drive value with that strategy..
And as for the canaloplasty alone indication and the studies, the Trident, Precision trials, let’s see what the clinical data looks like. We are excited about them.
And we think that it – as you can tell from at least the high-level description of the portfolio that we are building out here, we want to offer the broadest, deepest, most rich portfolio of solutions for every doctor. And different doctors have different preferences. Some may prefer to do canaloplasty alone.
Some may prefer to do canaloplasty with trabeculotomy. Some may prefer to do either of those procedures in combination with an implant. We have seen everything in the market. And we have a very, very good R&D team and manufacturing and operations team here.
I can tell you that the Menlo Park office is buzzing with pipeline development right now, a ton of good energy here. And we want and can or capitalize to bring this portfolio to market, again, addressing all of these different use cases..
And you asked a question about why we are confident. We are using our eyes and ears to be confident. It was very noisy to try to assess January given the variants. But we have a really high touch sales model.
We get great field intelligence about what’s out there, and I think we pretty have a conviction that in terms of what we are seeing and seeing order patterns through three quarters, March as well that kind of that characterization is accurate..
Okay. That’s very helpful. Thank you for that. And then I understand your comments on how it’s difficult to bifurcate the guidance as the standalone and combo cataract.
But I guess to maybe just ask it simply, does standalone need to post similar growth last year? Does it need to accelerate from some of those investments you are making? What’s needed to get to the midpoint of the guidance range?.
We do believe – I mean we are confident that it will accelerate. It’s been part of our objectives as we brought OMNI out with, especially when we received its broadest label and we are confident that as we execute correctly, that is what will occur..
Yes. I mean, Shawn, the answer is the right one.
We are confident that’s what we are making that investment but there is not a – there is a lot of – one of the great things about this product is there is a lot of different drivers of growth, and it’s still at even with a $14 million-ish fourth quarter, there is so much room to grow in terms of like the low amount of market penetration in standalone and combination cataract.
And so there is a ton of conviction and a ton of investment in belief, but there OMNI’s ability to do sort of help to achieve this guidance. There is multiple ways to get there..
Okay. Thank you..
Thank you. And I am showing no further questions at this time. And I would like to turn the conference back over to Paul Badawi for any further remarks..
I just want to thank everyone for their time and questions and attention and interest in Sight Sciences and thank our team for a stellar year in 2021, and what’s looking like a really amazing year ahead with everything that we discussed today. So, thank you all..
This concludes today’s conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect. Everyone, have a great day..
