Kips Bay Medical Reports First Quarter 2011 Results & FDA Update
Minneapolis, MN, May 12, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE)Kips Bay Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: KIPS) today announced financial results for the three months ended April 2, 2011.
Financial Results
In the first quarter of 2011, net sales and gross profit were $110,000 and $73,000, respectively. Net loss in the first quarter of 2011 was $909,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to our net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2010. During the first quarter of 2011, we initiated sales with two new independent distributors, and we achieved a gross margin of 66.4% compared to 69.0% in the fourth quarter of 2010. The gross margin variance resulted from a change in the distributor sales mix during the quarter and the impact of reduced manufacturing volumes on our cost of sales. Also note that our net loss for the first quarter of 2010 included a $2.3 million non-cash charge for an increase in the estimated fair value of an investor stock purchase option liability. This option was exercised in February 2010 at which time the related liability was reclassified to equity.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash and short-term investments increased to $17.2 million at April 2, 2011 from $3.8 million as of December 31, 2010. Total current assets increased to $18.2 million from $5.7 million over the same period. These increases were driven by our Initial Public Offering (IPO) completed in February 2011, from which we realized net proceeds of approximately $13.6 million.
Our current liabilities decreased from $5.7 million as of December 31, 2010 to $5.3 million as of April 2, 2011. This decrease resulted from our payment of certain expenses related to our IPO that were both in accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2010, and paid upon the completion of our IPO.
Cash used in operations declined from $972,000 for the three months ended April 3, 2010 to $215,000 for the three months ended April 2, 2011. This decrease is attributable to the decrease in the deferred offering costs, recorded as part of prepaid expenses and other current assets, which were reclassified to additional paid-in capital upon the completion or our IPO, partially offset by the payment of certain IPO expenses that were recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2010.
FDA Update
As we previously reported, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had disapproved our most recent amendment to our application for an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE). In follow-up conversations with the FDA, the agency indicated that it
needed to review our IDE information with outside experts before it could provide further guidance to us.
We are currently engaged in a constructive dialog with the FDA, focused on the development of the clinical protocol for our eSVS MESH, but have not yet received additional guidance from the agency regarding an amended filing.
Patent Update
We previously reported that we had received a notice of allowance on one European patent application which gives us the opportunity to have the patent issued in individual countries within Europe. We have chosen to have this patent granted in eight European nations: Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Spain, France, the United Kingdom, Italy and the Netherlands. We expect these patents to be issued within the next two months.
Looking Ahead
Our ability to maintain and improve margins will be dependent upon both the pricing we are able to negotiate with our distributors and future production levels required to support commercial sales and our clinical trials. Sales, general and administrative expenses will continue to increase as we expand our sales and marketing activities and incur expenses required to comply with public company reporting requirements. We expect to make significant investments in R&D once we are able to commence our US IDE trial and our post-market clinical studies to be conducted in Europe.
The first quarter of 2011 was an extraordinarily busy time for Kips Bay, said Manny Villafaña, Kips Bay Medical Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. We completed our initial public offering in February, an effort which had started in January of 2010 and required considerable attention from our senior management team. We now look forward to focusing our attention on the commercialization of our eSVS MESH abroad and obtaining an Investigational Device Exemption to begin clinical trials in the United States.
