ABIOMED ANNOUNCES Q2 FY 2017 REVENUE OF $103 MILLION, UP 35% OVER PRIOR YEAR

- Impella® Heart Pumps Assigned to Heart Assist System Implant, MS-DRG 215

DANVERS, Mass. — October 27, 2016 Abiomed, Inc. (NASDAQ: ABMD), a leading provider of breakthrough heart support technologies, today reported second quarter fiscal 2017 revenue of $103.0 million, an increase of 35% compared to revenue of $76.4 million for the same period of fiscal 2016. Second quarter fiscal 2017 GAAP net income was $8.9 million or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $7.7 million or $0.17 per diluted share for the prior year period.

Financial and operating highlights during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 include:

 

    Fiscal second quarter worldwide revenue from Impella heart pumps totaled $97.9 million, an increase of 37% compared to revenue of $71.7 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. U.S. revenue from Impella pumps grew 34% to $89.3 million and U.S. patient usage grew 35%.

 

    Outside the U.S., revenue from Impella heart pumps totaled $8.6 million and was up 73%, predominantly from Germany, which grew 126% in revenue from the prior fiscal year.

 

    The installed base for Impella 2.5™ heart pumps in the U.S. grew by an additional 33 hospitals, which made initial purchases of Impella heart pumps, bringing the installed customer base to 1,099 sites. The installed customer base for Impella CP® heart pumps grew by 62 new U.S. hospitals, bringing the total number of Impella CP sites to 923.

 

    An additional 23 sites made initial purchases of Impella RP® heart pumps during the quarter, bringing the total number of sites to 112.

 

    Gross margin for fiscal second quarter 2017 was 83.2% compared to 84.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.

 

    Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was $14.5 million, or 14.1% operating margin, compared to $12.8 million, or 16.8% operating margin in the prior year period.

 

    The Company generated $13.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, totaling $236.9 million as of September 30, 2016, compared to $223.2 million at June 30, 2016. The Company currently has no debt.

 

    On September 27, Abiomed announced that it received Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) approval from the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour & Welfare (MHLW) for the Impella 2.5™ and Impella 5.0™ heart pumps for the treatment of drug-resistant acute heart failure.

 

    Effective October 1, 2016, the American Hospital Association (AHA) published simplified ICD-10 coding guidance for Impella. CMS has assigned all Impella insertions to a dedicated heart assist implant MS-DRG, MS-DRG 215, for percutaneous Heart Assist System Implant, a change from MS-DRG 216 – 221 “Cardiac Valve and Other”. Impella is now assigned to a dedicated DRG category for left side, right side and biventricular hemodynamic support.

 

    Today, Abiomed announced in a separate press release the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of a prospective feasibility study (n=50) to evaluate the use of the Impella CP® heart pump for unloading of the left ventricle prior to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients presenting with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), without cardiogenic shock.


“This quarter’s historical achievement with Japanese PMDA approval reflects years of regulatory execution.” said Michael R. Minogue, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Abiomed. “Additionally, today we are announcing significant new milestones: Impella heart pumps assigned to Heart Assist System Implant, MS-DRG 215 and FDA approval for our feasibility STEMI study, “DTU”, for a new patient population. I am proud of our team’s ability to consistently accomplish our strategic initiatives and execute our tactical plan as Abiomed builds the Field of Heart Recovery.”
