ManagementCommentary
 
“Revenue grew by 45% in the 2014 fiscal year compared to the prior year, driven by increased sales of disposable microwave ablation antennas in Europe, fees from the MicroThermX® generator rental program, and sales of hyperthermia systems,” said Clint Carnell, CEO of BSD Medical. “BSD also achieved a number of important operational milestones this year, including obtaining regulatory import approval in China and Taiwan for the BSD-2000 and introducing MicroThermX products into several key European countries in collaboration with Terumo Europe N.V.”
 
“I am excited about the opportunity to expand sales of MicroThermX through a well-executed commercialization effort that will begin with building stronger awareness among patients, physicians and the healthcare system of the benefits of our microwave ablation system. There is significant opportunity to penetrate the U.S. market, where cancer remains the second-leading cause of death. I believe we have the right product to disrupt the current standard of care for diseased soft-tissue and can capitalize on developing trends in the healthcare system by providing cost-effective, less-invasive treatment options with MicroThermX. I look forward to sharing more specific details of our plans to capture market share in the coming months,” concluded Mr. Carnell.
 
Fiscal 2014 Financial Highlights
 
Revenues for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014 increased $1.6 million, or 45%, to $5.3 million, compared with the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. This increase was primarily due to increases in sales of our disposable SynchroWave antennas, increased revenue from our fee-per-use rental program for MicroThermX generators, and increases in shipments of our hyperthermia systems and was partially offset by slower sales of MicroThermX generators.
 
Gross margin was $2.4 million or 45% of revenues for fiscal 2014, and compared with $1.4 million, or 38% of revenues for fiscal 2013. The improvement in gross margin and gross margin as a percentage of sales resulted from increasing MicroThermX sales, particularly sales of consumable devices and equipment rentals as well as increased sales of our higher margin hyperthermia products.
 
Operating expenses of $9.5 million for the year ended August 31, 2014 decreased by 2% compared with the year ended August 31, 2013. Total cost of sales for fiscal 2014 was $2.9 million compared with $2.3 million for fiscal 2013, with the increase resulting primarily from increasing hyperthermia and MicroThermX antenna sales. Research and development expenses for fiscal 2014 of $2.2 million declined 2% from $2.3 million for fiscal 2013. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $7.3 million for fiscal 2014 compared with $7.4 million for fiscal 2013. While these total expenses were relatively constant from year to year, we continued to expand our MicroThermX sales and marketing activities, support personnel and related operating expenses in the current year.
 
The Company reported a net loss of $7.1 million, or $0.20 per share, for fiscal 2014, compared with a net loss of $8.3 million, or $0.26 per share, for fiscal 2013, an improvement of $1.2 million, or $0.06 per share.
