During the first quarter, we were pleased to report positive interim results from our ongoing post-market, multi-center, IRB approved clinical trial. The first patients are now hitting their 12-month milestone which includes a CT scan to assess bone healing. In addition to seeing marked improvements in widely used pain measures through VAS and ODI scores, we are seeing radiographic proof of bridging bone in these 12-month CT scans as assessed by an independent radiologist. To reinforce this positive data and progress, Tenon participated in the ISASS Conference in April featuring Dr. Matthew Davies to discuss his practical use of Catamaran in his SI treatment plan. Dr. Davies presented conclusive evidence from three Catamaran treated patients that delivered robust fusion results at the 12-month milestone. Taken together, this is further indication that Catamaran delivers on its promises."
Mr. Foster continued, "Additionally, in March, we welcomed Kristine Jacques to our Board of Directors bringing her significant experience in the medical devices field and successful go-to-market strategies of spinal-related technological innovation. We are honored to receive veteran counsel on the go-forward commercialization strategy for Tenon's Catamaran System combined with the post-market data to refine our sales and marketing approaches. In the first quarter, we hosted 12 physicians in targeted workshop activities and Catamaran focused training sessions.
Our first quarter performance demonstrated a successful first year of commercialization of The Catamaran's surgical procedure. We've achieved step change revenue growth, a stable and attractive gross margin and empirical evidence of the effectiveness of our SI implant and approach through our post-market study. As we develop our longer-term plan to further commercialize and expand our product portfolio to address SI Revision with our innovative patent protected technology, our commitment remains on delivering long-term value to all stakeholders," concluded Foster.

About Tenon Medical, Inc.
Tenon Medical, Inc., a medical device company formed in 2012, has developed The Catamaran™ SI Joint Fusion System that offers a novel, less invasive approach to the SI joint using a single, robust titanium implant. The system features the Catamaran™ Fixation Device which passes through both the axial and sagittal planes of the ilium and sacrum, stabilizing and transfixing the SI joint along its longitudinal axis. The angle and trajectory of the Catamaran surgical approach is also designed to provide a pathway away from critical neural and vascular structures and into the strongest cortical bone. Tenon is underway with a national launch of this system to address the greatly underserved market opportunity that exists in this space. For more information, please visit www.tenonmed.com.
