(NASDAQ:VIVE), a medical technology company focused on women's intimate health, today announced topline financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Based on fourth-quarter 2020 estimated total revenue of $1.9 million, a continued reduction in operating expenses, and a strengthened cash position following the close of the Company's recent upsized financing of $27.6 million in gross proceeds, Viveve is positioned with the capital resources to support operations through year-end 2022, including the planned completion of its pivotal U.S. PURSUIT trial in stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

"We are very pleased with our preliminary fourth quarter 2020 financial results, which demonstrate continuing adoption and increasing consumable utilization. I credit the talented team at Viveve for achieving the results reported this quarter as we close out a year of unprecedented challenges," said Scott Durbin, Viveve's chief executive officer. Importantly, our operational efficiency and the capital raised from our January public offering provide the Company with the resources to support our operations through 2022. Today, Viveve is in a strong position as we advance our pivotal U.S. PURSUIT trial toward a potential new indication in the U.S."

Preliminary Fourth Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Revenue for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020 totaled $1.9 million, compared to revenue of $1.5 million for the same period in 2019. Global sales of approximately 2,950 disposable treatment tips were reported for the fourth quarter of 2020, a 48% increase compared to 2,000 treatment tips for the same period in 2019.

Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 are expected to be approximately $4.6 million, down from $6.9 million for the same period in 2019. This decrease is anticipated due to the Company's organizational realignment focusing on its stress urinary incontinence (SUI) clinical development program and continuing cost-saving efforts implemented during the second quarter of 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents were $6.5 million as of December 31, 2020, compared to $13.3 million as of December 31, 2019.

About Viveve

The internationally patented Viveve® System incorporates Cryogen-cooled Monopolar Radiofrequency technology to uniformly deliver volumetric heating while gently cooling surface tissue to generate neocollagenesis in a single in-office session.

Viveve continues to advance its clinical development program in SUI. Recently reported FDA-approved changes to the U.S. pivotal PURSUIT trial protocol are intended to strengthen the overall study and its potential to achieve its primary efficacy endpoint. Study changes, including an increase in the trial's size and more strict patient selection criteria, were a result of guidance from Viveve's Clinical Advisory Board upon review of positive results from the Company's SUI feasibility and preclinical studies. Viveve received FDA approval of its IDE application to conduct the multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, sham-controlled PURSUIT trial for improvement of SUI in women in July 2020 and FDA approval of its requested amendments to the IDE protocol as reported on December 10, 2020. The initiation of the trial was reported on January 21, 2021. If positive, results from the PURSUIT trial may support a new SUI indication in the U.S.
