2021 Third Quarter and First Nine Months Financial Highlights
For the first nine months of 2021, LumiraDx delivered $303.2 million in revenue compared to $26.9 million for the same period last year and $139.2 million for full year 2020. The company currently expects full year revenue for 2021 to be substantially in line with the average consensus analyst estimate of $367 million .
The pandemic accelerated the company's vision to transform point-of-care diagnostics, enabling more than 19,300 Platforms shipped to customers as of the end of September 2021.
For the third quarter of 2021, LumiraDx reported $109.1 million in revenue compared to $13.9 million for the same period last year. Covid Ag test strips accounted for $92.0 million of revenue in the third quarter of 2021 driven by higher testing rates in all markets, while Fast Lab Solutions delivered revenue of $10.3 million as adoption of our unique molecular chemistry has been accelerating.
Gross margin for the third quarter of 2021 was 36% and gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 32% . Margins were negatively impacted by non-recurring costs related to our rapid increase in production capacity and capabilities.
Research and development costs were $35.4 million in the third quarter of 2021. This represents an increase of 27% over the third quarter in 2020 as we continued to increase capabilities, opened our new R&D center in Glasgow and further resourced our development teams for continued pipeline delivery.
SG&A expenses for the third quarter of 2021 of $58.9 million includes an IFRS 2 charge of $22.2 million for the difference in the fair value of the shares deemed to have been issued by LumiraDx in the merger transaction to CA Healthcare shareholders and the net assets of CA Healthcare and $8.6 million of LumiraDx transaction costs as part of LumiraDx's transaction to go public on Nasdaq. Excluding these items, SG&A expenses were $28.1 million , an increase of $15.9 million from the third quarter in 2020 as we expanded staffing globally to support the commercial growth of LumiraDx's Platform and Fast Lab Solutions.
Net income for the third quarter of 2021 was $84.8 million , or $0.46 per fully diluted share. Net income arose from certain accounting gains on the conversion of our debt and equity securities as part of the merger transaction. Our non-IFRS adjusted net loss for the period, excluding merger expenses and excluding amortization, share-based payment expenses and unrealized foreign exchange gains was $29.8 million , or a loss of $0.16 per share.
At September 30, 2021 , LumiraDx had $300 million in senior debt and $18 million in other term debt. The company's cash balance at September 30, 2021 was $217.7 million .

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding the effectiveness of our strategy, regulatory progress and the advancement of our pipeline of tests, and the benefits and performance of our tests. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including, among others, general economic, political and business conditions; the effect of COVID-19 on LumiraDx's business and financial results; obtaining or maintaining regulatory approval, authorization or clearance for our tests; and those factors discussed under the header "Risk Factors" in the Proxy Statement and Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424B (3) with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC on September 10, 2021 and other filings with the SEC. Although LumiraDx believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this press release, LumiraDx cautions you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known by it and its projections of the future, about which it cannot be certain. LumiraDx undertakes no obligation to update or revise the information contained in this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events or circumstances or otherwise.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
We present non-IFRS financial measures because we believe that they and other similar measures are widely used by certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity. We also use these measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets and operational goals to manage and monitor our business, as well as evaluate our underlying historical performance, as we believe that these non-IFRS financial measures depict the true performance of the business by encompassing only relevant and controllable events, enabling us to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future. The non-IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under IFRS as issued by the IASB. Non-IFRS financial measures and margins are not measurements of our performance, financial condition or liquidity under IFRS as issued by the IASB and should not be considered as alternatives to [operating loss, gross margin or net income (loss)] or any other performance measures, derived in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB or any other generally accepted accounting principles.
We define non-IFRS operating loss and non-IFRS net income (loss) as operating loss and net income (loss), respectively, excluding amortization, share-based payments, IFRS 2 listing expense, change in fair value of financial instruments, foreign exchange (gain)/loss, dividends on preferred shares and non-cash interest. We recommend that you review the reconciliation of the non-IFRS measure to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure provided in the financial statement tables included below, and that you not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
