Plano, Texas, May 9, 2017 – Nuvectra Corporation (NASDAQ: NVTR), a neurostimulation medical device company, announced today financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Highlights

Scott Drees, CEO, said, “We continued to progress on all of our key initiatives during the first quarter. Total Algovita revenue grew 68% sequentially from the fourth quarter, demonstrating the ramping productivity of our commercial team and their ability to secure new accounts while also driving deeper account penetration. In the first quarter, we also completed our FDA regulatory submissions for the Virtis Sacral Nerve Stimulation System. We remain on track to enter the large, fast-growing, and underserved SNS market in Europe by the end of the year and in the U.S. in the second half of 2018.”

First Quarter Financial Results

Total revenue in the first quarter of 2017 was $5.0 million, a 144.4% increase from $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2016. Gross profit in the first quarter of 2017 was $2.6 million, or 52.2% gross margin, an increase from $1.0 million, or 48.8% gross margin, in the first quarter of 2016.

Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2017 were $15.2 million, an 87.6% increase from $8.1 million in the first quarter of 2016. The increase reflects investments in the Company’s sales and marketing team, along with higher headcount and other costs related to becoming a public company.
