Insights
The performance of Asensus Surgical in 2023, particularly the growth in procedures using the Senhance Surgical System, indicates a positive trajectory in the adoption of their technology. A 13% increase in surgical procedures year-over-year suggests that the system is gaining traction within the medical community. The initiation of eight new Senhance Surgical Programs aligns with the company's guidance, reflecting a strategic consistency in their expansion efforts.
Furthermore, the financial results, with a full-year revenue of $8.6 million and a cash reserve of approximately $21.1 million, provide a snapshot of the company's fiscal health. These figures are essential for stakeholders in assessing the company's ability to fund ongoing operations and invest in future growth opportunities. The financial stability, inferred from the cash reserves, may also offer the company some buffer against market fluctuations and investment in R&D.
Asensus Surgical's focus on digitizing the interface between surgeon and patient through the Senhance Surgical System is indicative of broader industry trends towards digitalization and automation in healthcare. The in vivo evaluation of the LUNA Surgical System by independent surgeons is a critical step towards regulatory approval and commercialization. This indicates the company's commitment to innovation and could be a significant driver for future growth, pending regulatory outcomes.
Moreover, the international expansion with new programs across Germany, Romania, the CIS region and Japan suggests that Asensus Surgical is strategically positioning itself in diverse markets. This geographic diversification can potentially mitigate risks associated with market-specific regulatory hurdles or economic downturns. The fourth quarter revenue spike is also noteworthy, as it may signal an accelerating adoption rate or successful entry into new markets.
From a financial perspective, the unaudited fourth quarter revenue of $5.4 million deserves attention. It represents a significant portion of the annual revenue and could imply a strong finish to the year, possibly due to strategic sales initiatives or an increase in market demand for their products. Investors should monitor subsequent quarters to see if this uptrend is sustainable and indicative of a solid growth pattern.
It's also important to consider the company's cash position in relation to its burn rate and future investment needs. The $21.1 million in cash and equivalents provides a cushion, but for a med-tech company heavily investing in R&D and regulatory approvals, this runway might be shorter than it appears. A detailed analysis of the company's cash flow projections and anticipated capital requirements would be prudent for a comprehensive understanding of its financial stability.

Market Development
2023 Senhance Program Initiations
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company initiated five new Senhance Surgical System placements, one in Germany, one in Romania, two in the CIS region and one in Japan at Nagoya University Hospital.
In 2023, the Company initiated eight new Senhance Surgical System placements: one in the United States, one in Germany, three in Japan, one in Romania, and two in the CIS region.
Procedure Volumes
In 2023, surgeons performed over 3,550 procedures utilizing the Senhance System, representing a
Pediatric Update
In 2023, the Company made notable progress in improving pediatric care. A key milestone was the FDA's clearance for use of the Senhance System in pediatric cases, marking it as the first approved digital laparoscopic surgery solution for pediatric patients in the U.S. This clearance, alongside existing approvals in the EU and Japan, highlights the Senhance System's unique features, including 3mm instrumentation, a 5mm camera scope, haptic feedback, and advanced clinical intelligence from the Intelligent Surgical Unit™(ISU™). These features work together to contribute to a less invasive approach in pediatric robotic surgery. In addition to regulatory milestones, the Company has introduced four Senhance System programs dedicated to pediatric departments in the U.S. and internationally.
Clinical Registry (TRUST)
The Company continues to leverage its growing body of real-world clinical data through the utilization of its TRUST™ clinical registry. The Company believes TRUST is the largest multi-specialty robotic-assisted laparoscopic registry in the industry, with approximately 3,200 patients enrolled to date, a
Clinical Validation
During the year, there were nine peer-reviewed clinical papers published providing further support for the clinical utility of the Senhance System across a variety of surgical specialties. These papers, along with a library of similar papers, can be found on the Company’s website: https://www.asensus.com/resources/clinical-publications.
LUNA™ Surgical Robotic System
LUNA Development
The LUNA Surgical System's development is in progress and is now in the testing and evaluation phase before regulatory submissions. In December 2023, the Company hosted a Surgeon Lab in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, to conduct an in vivo evaluation of LUNA’s hardware, software, and instruments in porcine models. The lab allowed nine participating surgeons to evaluate the LUNA system's functionality through thirteen procedures across gynecology, urology, and general surgery. For a closer look at the Surgeon Lab and insights from the participating surgeons, a video is available at https://ir.asensus.com/events-and-presentations. The video provides an overview of the LUNA system's features, demonstrating its range of motion, instrument strength, and ergonomic benefits.
Future milestones include freezing the system's design in the second half of 2024, followed by verification and validation testing, and pilot manufacturing. The Company is confident in the regulatory pathway for the LUNA System. Ongoing communication with the FDA, along with strong in-house regulatory expertise and past successful submissions for the Senhance System, lead the Company to anticipate using a traditional 510(k) submission pathway in the U.S., rather than the more complex de novo pathway. This streamlined approach is expected to apply globally, offering a quicker market entry compared to new entrants. LUNA is currently under development and has not been submitted to, or cleared by, the U.S. FDA or other global regulators, and is not available for sale in any market.
Agreement with Flex for LUNA Surgical System Design and Advanced Manufacturing Services
In November, the Company announced an agreement with Flex for design and manufacturing support for the LUNA Surgical System. This collaboration aims to facilitate the efficient market entry of LUNA by leveraging Flex's expertise in electromechanical systems. The agreement underscores a joint commitment to advancing surgical technology for improved patient care.

The non-GAAP financial measures for the three months and years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, provide management with additional insight into the Company’s results of operations from period to period without non-cash charges and are calculated using the following adjustments:
a) Intangible assets that are amortized consist of developed technology and purchased patent rights recorded at cost and amortized over 7 to 10 years.
b) Contingent consideration in connection with the acquisition of the Senhance System in 2015 is recorded as a liability and is the estimate of the fair value of potential milestone payments related to business acquisitions. Contingent consideration is measured at fair value using a Monte-Carlo simulation utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving each of the potential milestones, revenue volatility, EURO to USD exchange rate, and an estimated discount rate associated with the risks of the expected cash flows attributable to the various milestones. Significant increases or decreases in any of the probabilities of success or changes in expected timelines for achievement of any of these milestones would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value of these milestones, respectively, and commensurate changes to the associated liability. The contingent consideration is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
c) Property and equipment impairment associated with Senhance Systems under operating leases that are not expected to generate future cash flows sufficient to recover their net book value.
d) During 2023, the Company recorded warrant liabilities related to common stock warrants issued in the registered direct offering in July 2023.
Warrant liabilities were recorded at their initial estimated fair value. Adjustments associated with changes in fair value of the warrant liabilities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
