Welcome to our dedicated page for CVRx news (Ticker: CVRX), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on CVRx stock.
CVRx, Inc. (NASDAQ: CVRX) is a commercial-stage medical device company headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The company specializes in developing, manufacturing, and commercializing innovative neuromodulation solutions for patients with cardiovascular diseases. Its flagship product, Barostim, leverages proprietary technology to treat high blood pressure and heart failure by utilizing the body's natural blood flow regulation system.
Barostim is an implantable device that delivers electrical pulses to the baroreceptors located in the wall of the carotid artery. These pulses activate the baroreflex, which in turn restores balance to the autonomic nervous system, reducing heart failure symptoms. Barostim is FDA-approved for heart failure patients in the U.S. and has also received the CE Mark for heart failure and resistant hypertension in the European Economic Area. The device can be tailored to meet individual patient therapy needs.
The majority of CVRx's revenue is generated from the U.S. market. The company has seen significant growth, particularly in its U.S. heart failure business, which recorded nearly 120% revenue growth compared to the previous year. As of June 30, 2023, CVRx operates with 140 active implanting centers in the U.S., up from 122 as of March 31, 2023. The company's revenue for the second quarter of 2023 was $9.5 million, marking an 89% increase over the same period in 2022.
CVRx continues to expand its reach with a growing number of implanting centers and sales territories. In Europe, the company generated $1.2 million in revenue for the second quarter of 2023, a 10% increase over the previous year. Despite facing competition, CVRx remains focused on establishing and maintaining strong sales and marketing capabilities to promote the merits of Barostim.
In recent news, CVRx announced the reassignment of Barostim to a higher-paying code by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), which will facilitate increased access to the therapy by offering hospitals sufficient reimbursement. The company also reported preliminary unaudited revenue results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023, showing continued growth. Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023 is expected to be between $11.2 million and $11.3 million, representing a 56-58% increase over the fourth quarter of 2022.
As CVRx looks toward the future, the company is optimistic about further expanding the adoption of Barostim. A strong foundation, exceptional leadership, and consistent execution of its strategy position CVRx well for future commercial growth. The company is actively seeking a successor for its retiring CEO, Nadim Yared, ensuring a seamless transition and continued focus on improving patients' lives.
CVRx announced preliminary results from the BeAT-HF trial, assessing the Barostim device for heart failure treatment.

While the primary endpoint was not statistically significant, additional analyses indicated potential benefits, including improved all-cause survival and quality of life. The safety profile of Barostim remained robust over 24 months. CVRx intends to submit these findings to the FDA for expanded labeling. The results will be discussed in a conference call on February 21, 2023, and presented at the THT Conference on March 21, 2023.
