AUDUBON, Pa., Aug. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Globus Medical, Inc., the largest privately held spinal implant manufacturer in the world, today announced record revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2007. The company recorded revenues of $30.2 million for the second quarter -- an increase of 52% over the $19.9 million it achieved in the same quarter a year ago. The announcement follows on the heels of $110 million in series E financing to fund Globus' continued rapid growth.

"The record results were driven by a major expansion of the company's sales and distribution footprint, and the introduction of several new products across its fusion, MIS and biomaterials portfolio," said Rick Kienzle, Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Globus Medical.

So far in 2007, Globus has introduced six new systems that represent significant technological advancements in fusion, MIS and biomaterials. Additionally, in the area of motion preservation, the company announced two "world's first" surgeries using its transforaminal and posterior disc replacement systems.

Globus Medical also entered the biomaterial segment during the second quarter with the introduction of the NuBone(TM) Osteoinductive Bone Graft Product Line, the first of several new biomaterial initiatives planned for the next 12 months. The launch of Globus Medical's MARS(TM) Minimally Invasive Retractor System filled out its MIS product portfolio, further securing the company's leadership position in MIS technology and products. Both MIS and biomaterials are key initiatives in Globus Medical's strategy to innovate across the complete suite of products.
