Full Year 2020

A full reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the tables of this news release.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Results
NuVasive reported fourth quarter 2020 total net sales of $291.8 million, a 6.0% decrease compared to $310.4 million for the fourth quarter 2019. On a constant currency basis, fourth quarter 2020 total net sales decreased 6.7% compared to the same period last year driven by the impact of COVID-19 on elective surgeries.

For the fourth quarter 2020, GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit was $207.2 million and $208.9 million, respectively, and GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin was 71.0% and 71.6%, respectively. These results compared to GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit of $227.1 million and GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of 73.2%, for the fourth quarter 2019. The decline in GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin was primarily due to the decrease in net sales and incremental reserves for inventory.

The Company reported GAAP net income of $1.7 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.03, for the fourth quarter 2020 compared to GAAP net income of $29.9 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.55, for the fourth quarter 2019. On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported net income of $30.4 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.59, for the fourth quarter 2020 compared to non-GAAP net income of $38.5 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.73, for the fourth quarter 2019.

Free cash flow for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020, was $44.8 million compared to $46.3 million in the prior year period.

Full Year 2020 Results
NuVasive reported full year 2020 total net sales of $1.051 billion, a 10.1% decrease compared to $1.168 billion for the full year 2019. On a constant currency basis, full year 2020 total net sales decreased 10.2% compared to the full year 2019, which reflects the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

For the full year 2020, GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit was $729.0 million and $730.7 million, respectively, and GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin was 69.4% and 69.5%, respectively. These results compared to GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit of $855.7 million, and GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of 73.3% for the full year 2019. The decrease in GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin was primarily a result of incremental reserves for inventory attributed to projected demand for certain spinal hardware products impacted by COVID-19.

The Company reported GAAP net loss of $37.2 million, or diluted loss per share of $0.72, for the full year 2020 compared to GAAP net income of $65.2 million, or diluted earnings per share of $1.23, for the full year 2019. On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported net income of $63.8 million, or diluted earnings per share of $1.23, for the full year 2020 compared to non-GAAP net income of $129.8 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.47, for the full year 2019. See the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" table for a reconciliation of these GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures.

Cash, cash equivalents, and investments were $1.030 billion as of Dec. 31, 2020, compared to $213 million reported as of Dec. 31, 2019.

Simplify Medical
In a separate news release, NuVasive announced it has acquired Simplify Medical, a privately held company and developer of the Simplify® Cervical Artificial Disc for cervical total disc replacement (cTDR), as of Feb. 24, 2021. The transaction provides NuVasive with the most clinically effective technology in the cTDR procedure segment and further distinguishes NuVasive's C360 cervical portfolio in the market.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Information
Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures such as non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP operating margin, which exclude amortization of intangible assets, business transition costs, purchased in-process research and development, one-time restructuring and related items in connection with acquisitions, investments and divestitures, non-recurring consulting fees, certain litigation expenses and settlements, certain European medical device regulation costs, gains and losses from strategic investments, gains and losses from changes in fair value of derivatives and non-cash interest expense (excluding debt issuance cost). Management also uses certain non-GAAP measures which are intended to exclude the impact of foreign exchange currency fluctuations. The measure constant currency utilizes an exchange rate that eliminates fluctuations when calculating financial performance numbers. The Company also uses measures such as free cash flow, which represents cash flow from operations less cash used in the acquisition and disposition of capital. Additionally, the Company uses an adjusted EBITDA measure which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and excludes the impact of stock-based compensation, business transition costs, purchased in-process research and development, one-time restructuring and related items in connection with acquisitions, investments and divestitures, non-recurring consulting fees, certain litigation expenses and settlements, certain European medical device regulation costs, gains and losses on strategic investments, gains and losses from changes in fair value of derivatives and other significant one-time items.

Management calculates the non-GAAP financial measures provided in this earnings release excluding these costs and uses these non-GAAP financial measures to enable it to further and more consistently analyze the period-to-period financial performance of its core business operations. Management believes that providing investors with these non-GAAP measures gives them additional information to enable them to assess, in the same way management assesses, the Company's current and future continuing operations. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Set forth below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measure.
