Exhibit 99.1
Teknova Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Second quarter 2022 total revenue was $11.7 million, up 41% year-over-year
Cash position of $64.7 million supports ongoing investment in growth strategy
Company updates 2022 revenue outlook to $38-42 million
HOLLISTER, Calif., August 10, 2022 – Alpha Teknova, Inc. (“Teknova”) (Nasdaq: TKNO), a leading provider of critical reagents for the discovery, development, and commercialization of drug therapies, novel vaccines, and molecular diagnostics, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
“We were pleased with our second quarter revenue growth and the excellent progress on the build-out of our new manufacturing facility,” said Stephen Gunstream, President and CEO of Teknova. “While we continue to see healthy demand across our broader customer base, we now expect lower than anticipated revenue in the second half of 2022, we believe in large part due to certain of our early-stage biopharma customers deferring large purchases. We nonetheless remain confident in our fundamental growth opportunity and our position in the market.”

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Total revenue for the second quarter 2022 was $11.7 million, up 41%, compared to $8.3 million in the second quarter 2021.
Gross profit for the second quarter 2022 was $5.2 million, compared to $3.4 million in the second quarter 2021. Gross margin for the second quarter 2022 was 44.9% of revenue. This compares to gross margin of 40.3% in the second quarter 2021, and gross margin of 48.7% in the second quarter 2021 on an adjusted basis, which excludes the impact of a $0.7 million charge from an inventory reserve related to excess Sample Transport inventory. The lower gross margin for the second quarter 2022 compared to the adjusted gross margin in the prior year reflects higher labor and overhead costs.
Operating expenses for the second quarter 2022 were $11.9 million, compared to $5.9 million in the second quarter 2021. The increase was primarily related to additional headcount, marketing costs, and stock-based compensation expenses.
Net loss for the second quarter 2022 was $6.2 million, or negative $0.22 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $2.3 million, or negative $0.52 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2021.
Cash used in operating activities for the second quarter 2022 was $5.8 million, compared to cash used in operating activities of $3.6 million for the second quarter 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter 2022 was negative $4.9 million, compared to negative $1.5 million for the second quarter 2021. Free Cash Flow was negative $16.8 million for the second quarter 2022, compared to negative $8.2 million for the second quarter 2021.
2022 Revenue Outlook
Teknova now anticipates total revenue of $38 million to $42 million for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, which assumes approximately 13% growth at the mid-point of guidance, excluding Sample Transport revenue. Total revenue growth is expected to be driven by an approximately 10% increase in Lab Essentials and at least a 45% increase in Clinical Solutions. The Company does not anticipate any material revenue from Sample Transport in 2022.
Conference Call and Webcast
Teknova will host a webcast and conference call on Wednesday, August 10, 2022, beginning at 4:30 p.m. ET. Participants can access the live webcast on the Investor Relations section of the Teknova website and at this link: https://edge.media-server.com/mmc/p/s88ivr8z.

About Teknova
Teknova is expediting clinical breakthroughs in life sciences by providing custom products and reagents for drug therapies, novel vaccines, and molecular diagnostics. With a focus on agility and customization, Teknova delivers research-grade and GMP products, including cell culture media and supplements, protein and nucleic acid purification buffers, and molecular biology reagents for a multitude of established and emerging applications, including cell and gene therapy, mRNA therapeutics, genomics, and synthetic biology. Teknova's proprietary processes enable the manufacture and delivery of high-quality, custom, made-to-order products with short turnaround times and at scale across all stages of development, including commercialization.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Teknova uses the following non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the performance of our business and the effectiveness of our business strategies: (a) Adjusted EBITDA and (b) Free Cash Flow.
Teknova defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted for interest income (expense), net, benefit from income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA reflects further adjustments to eliminate the impact of certain items, including certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider representative of our ongoing operating performance.
Teknova defines Free Cash Flow as cash used in operating activities less purchases of property, plant, and equipment.
Teknova presents Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow in this press release because Teknova believes that analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use these measures to evaluate companies in our industry and that such measures facilitate comparisons on a consistent basis across reporting periods. Teknova also believes such measures are helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results because they exclude items that are not indicative of our core operating performance. Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by Teknova may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
A full reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures is included at the end of this release.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this press release about future expectations, plans and prospects, as well as any other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, may constitute “forward-looking statements.” These statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to our anticipated total revenue, our expectation that recent customer engagement dynamics will be transitory, and growth in Lab Essentials and growth in Clinical Solutions for 2022, and statements about our prospects and long-term growth strategy. The words, without limitation, “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these or similar identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs and are subject to uncertainties and factors, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control and could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those described in the forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to, demand for our products (including the delay or pausing of customer orders); our assessment of fundamental indicators of future demand across our target customer base; our ability to expand our production capacity and commercial and R&D capabilities; our cash flows and revenue growth rate; our supply chain, sourcing, manufacturing and warehousing; inventory management; risks related to global economic and marketplace uncertainties related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of the pandemic on our supply chain; reliance on a limited number of customers for a high percentage of our revenue; potential acquisitions and integration of other companies and other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our most recent periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, all of which you may obtain for free on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we do not know whether our expectations will prove correct. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof, even if subsequently made available by us on our website or otherwise. We do not undertake any obligation to update, amend or clarify these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
