Intersect ENT Reports Second Quarter 2015 Results
Revenue Increased 77% Year Over Year to $15.2 Million and Gross Margins Rise to 81%
MENLO PARK, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)— Intersect ENT, Inc. (NASDAQ:XENT), a company dedicated to improving the quality of life for patients with ear, nose and throat conditions, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.
Recent Highlights
| • | Achieved revenue of $15.2 million, an increase of 77% over Q2 2014. |
| • | Realized gross margin of 81%, versus 73% in Q2 2014. |
| • | Completed enrollment of the first cohort of 80 patients in the PROGRESS study, a randomized blinded multicenter trial to assess the safety and efficacy of the PROPEL® mini steroid releasing implant when used following frontal sinus surgery. This trial was designed to support an expanded indication for PROPEL mini, currently approved for use in the ethmoid sinus. |
| • | Commenced enrollment of the second cohort of 80 patients in the PROGRESS study, a prospective, randomized blinded multicenter trial to assess the safety and efficacy of NOVA when used following frontal sinus surgery. NOVA, an investigational device, is a bioabsorbable steroid releasing implant designed to prop open sinus ostia while delivering anti-inflammatory medication following surgical interventions in the operating room or office setting. |
| • | Continued to enroll patients in RESOLVE II, a 300-patient pivotal Phase III clinical study of the RESOLVE investigational steroid releasing implant designed to treat patients with recurrent sinus obstruction in the office setting. |
| • | Completed follow-on offering, issuing 4.1 million new shares raising gross proceeds of $103.0 million, or $96.4 million in net proceeds after underwriters’ discounts and expenses. |
“Adoption of PROPEL and PROPEL mini continues to expand, and we estimate that more than 20,000 patients have benefitted from PROPEL steroid releasing implants so far this year,” stated Lisa Earnhardt, president and CEO of Intersect ENT. “In addition, we are advancing our clinical trials through completion of enrollment in the PROPEL mini study, on-plan enrollment of the RESOLVE II study, and commencement of our first pivotal study of NOVA. This progress together with the commercial growth of PROPEL supports our goal of providing solutions for chronic sinusitis patients across the continuum of care.”
Second Quarter Financial Results
Revenue for the second quarter of 2015 increased 77% to $15.2 million, from $8.6 million in the same period of 2014. This increase is attributable to higher unit sales driven by the acquisition of new accounts, expanded adoption by existing customers and a modest price increase implemented at the start of the year. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2015 was 81%, up from 73% in the same period of 2014. This increase in gross margin was due primarily to spreading the company’s manufacturing costs over higher production volumes.
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2015 were $18.2 million, an increase of 70% compared to $10.7 million in the same period of 2014. The increase in operating expenses was driven primarily by growth in headcount, notably in sales and clinical staffing, an increase in clinical trial spending, as well as expenses associated with being a public company and stock-based compensation expense. The second quarter operating expenses included $1.2 million in stock-based compensation expense compared to $0.4 million in the same period of 2014.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2015 was $5.8 million, compared to $4.4 million for the second quarter of 2014. Second quarter 2015 basic and diluted net loss per share was $(0.23).
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $136.5 million as of June 30, 2015.
