TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InspireMD, Inc. (Nasdaq: NSPR), developer of the CGuard™ Embolic Prevention System (EPS) for treatment of carotid artery disease and prevention of stroke today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 and Recent Highlights:

  • CGuard revenues for the second quarter 2022 were $1,505,000, a 47.8% increase over the same period in 2021, on 2,602 stent systems sold, as compared to 1,623 stents sold in the same period in 2021.
  • Continued enrollment in the C-Guardian Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) Clinical Trial. The Company completed its first European enrollment in April, led by co-principal investigator Professor Piotr Musialek, at John Paul II Hospital, in Krakow, Poland. The company currently has 20 trial sites enrolling patients and anticipates adding seven more by the end of the year. The company anticipates completing enrollment in Q1 2023.
  • Delivered several presentations at LINC 2022 featuring CGuard™ EPS, including a live case transmission on a 62-year-old asymptomatic male with progressive and calcified internal carotid critical stenosis. The procedure was successfully performed with the 10mm x 30mm CGuard™ EPS and produced an excellent angiographic result.
  • Announced that endovascular pioneer Dr. Juan Parodi has agreed to act as strategic advisor to the company. Dr. Parodi is credited with performing the first endovascular repair procedure in 1990 and the first TCAR procedure in 1994.

Marvin Slosman, CEO of InspireMD, commented: “Our second quarter revenue results again demonstrated our ability to gain share in our key European markets. With 48% growth in revenue in the quarter, respectively, over the same quarterly period last year, we believe we are well on our way to establishing CGuard™ EPS as a ‘new’ standard of care for the management of carotid artery disease and stroke prevention.”

“Regarding our U.S. IDE trial, we now have 22 sites enrolling patients, and plan to bring an additional seven online by the end of the year. Enrollment is accelerating and tracking nicely, and we continue to anticipate having the trial fully enrolled by approximately Q1 of next year.”

“We expect future growth to be driven by continued market share gains, additional geographic expansion, and the introduction of our new stent delivery systems, CGuard Prime and Switchguard. I look forward to continued momentum and I am beyond excited for what the future holds, not only for our company, but for CAD patients and their treating physicians as well,” Mr. Slosman concluded.

Financial Results for the Second Quarter ended June 30, 2022

For the second quarter of 2022, total revenue increased 47.6%, to $1,531,000, from $1,038,000 during the second quarter of 2021. This increase was predominantly driven by a 47.8% increase in sales volume of CGuard EPS, to $1,505,000 in the second quarter of 2022 from $1,019,000 in the same period one year ago. This sales increase was mainly due to growth in existing and new markets as well as US sales related to stents used in the C-Guardian U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clinical trial.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2022 increased by $169,000, or 64.4%, to $431,000, compared to a gross profit of $262,000 for the second quarter of 2021. This increase resulted from higher revenue and a reduction in miscellaneous expenses of $55,000, partially offset by a $83,000 reduction in costs of goods sold due to an inventory adjustment that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2021 which did not occur during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Gross margin (gross profits as a percentage of revenue) increased to 28.1% during the three months ended June 30, 2022 from 25.2% during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2022, were $5,112,000, an increase of $1,410,000, or 38.1% compared to $3,702,000 for the second quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily due to increases in expenses related to the commencement of the C-Guardians FDA study, resumed activities in tradeshows, travel and share-based compensation.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $4,636,000, or $0.59 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3,507,000, or $0.46 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2021.

As of June 30, 2022, cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits were $26.5 million compared to $34.0 million as of December 31, 2021.

Financial Results for the Six Months ended June 30, 2022

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, total revenue increased by $670,000, or 32.8%, to $2,714,000, from $2,044,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was predominantly driven by a 34.2% increase in sales volume of CGuard EPS, to $2,666,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $1,987,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This sales increase was mainly due to growth in existing and new markets and sales in the United States related to stents used in our C-Guardians FDA study which occurred in the six months ended June 30, 2022, but not in the corresponding period in 2021.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $185,000, or 50.2%, to $553,000, compared to a gross profit of $368,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase in gross profit resulted from higher revenue, partially offset by an increase of $38,000 in miscellaneous expenses. Gross margin (gross profits as a percentage of revenue) increased to 20.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2022 from 18% during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022, were $9,720,000, an increase of $2,598,000, or 36.5% compared to $7,122,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily due to increases in expenses related to the commencement of the C-Guardians FDA study, share-based compensation and resumed activities in tradeshows and travel.

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $9,117,000, or $1.17 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $6,750,000, or $0.98 per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
