2020 and Recent Business Highlights
- Realigned organization and executed cost-saving measures: In response to the COVID-19 crisis and to focus efforts to advance the SUI clinical development program, the Company strategically realigned the organization and implemented cost-reduction measures to increase operational and commercial efficiency and successfully reduce cash burn rate.
- Completed preclinical and three-arm feasibility studies in SUI: The positive results from these studies validated the new inert sham tip and demonstrated meaningful clinical separation between energy-based arms and new inert sham, allowing us to proceed with the pivotal U.S. PURSUIT trial.
- Formed preeminent Clinical Advisory Board in urinary incontinence: Recruited group of urology and urogynecology experts to help guide the PURSUIT study trial design and advance the Company's SUI development strategy.
- Received FDA approval to conduct U.S. pivotal PURSUIT trial: Strengthened study design by increasing size to 390 subjects across 30 investigator sites with enhanced patient selection criteria, which improves the study's power to support assessment of the primary efficacy endpoint.
- Expanded intellectual property portfolio in SUI: U.S. Method Patent for SUI issued strengthening the Company's robust patent estate.
- Increased commercial availability of next generation 2.0 platform: Regulatory clearances achieved in Taiwan, Thailand, and Canada expand the availability of the 2.0 system and consumable treatment tips.
- Expanded manufacturing capacity of consumable treatment tips: FDA 510(k) approval to expand treatment tip manufacturing reduces manufacturing costs and strengthens supply chain to support increases in consumable treatment tip demand and utilization.
- Completed upsized financing to support operations through end of 2022: Successful closing of the upsized
$27.6 million offering supports the Company's operations through end of 2022, including completion of the U.S. pivotal PURSUIT trial in SUI.

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. 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.
