Senseonics Holdings, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Nov. 9, 2020 21:05 UTC

GERMANTOWN, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Senseonics Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: SENS), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of long-term, implantable continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems for people with diabetes, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Recent Highlights & Accomplishments:

• Reinitiated Eversense® new patient sales and marketing activities in the U.S. with Ascensia Diabetes Care on October 1, 2020
• Submitted Premarket Approval (PMA) supplement application for the extension of the wearable life of the Eversense CGM System for up to 180 days to the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
• Announced PROMISE study accuracy results for the 180-day Eversense product, demonstrating mean absolute relative difference (MARD) matching the performance of the current 90-day Eversense system of 8.5%-9.6%
• Continued efforts to expand patient access resulted in positive coverage decisions representing approximately 80% of covered lives in the U.S. This includes Medicare patients following the issuance of Local Coverage Determinations from all Medicare Administrative Contractors ahead of the 2021 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Proposed Rule that will provide national coverage for implantable CGMs
• Generated third quarter 2020 revenue of $767 thousand driven by increased sensor reinsertions and supply orders from existing patients compared to the second quarter of 2020
• Reduced third quarter operating expenses by $18.9 million, compared to the prior year period, due to the execution of cost reduction actions and the streamlined operational focus implemented in late March 2020
• Entered into a $12.0 million equity line of credit with Energy Capital

“In the third quarter we continued to efficiently support Eversense users who understand the heightened importance of glycemic control amid this pandemic. At the start of the fourth quarter we initiated commercial activity with Ascensia. Following a successful training program, the Ascensia sales force is now calling on Eversense prescribers in pursuit of new commercial and Medicare patients,” said Tim Goodnow, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Senseonics. “We believe the organizational changes for Senseonics resulting from the worldwide strategic commercial collaboration, in combination with additional cost reduction initiatives, will continue to drive expense and cash burn reductions in the future. Investment and resources are focused on the approval of the 180-day Eversense system in the U.S. and driving the development of the 365-day product where we are making great strides with configuration optimization. Following our PMA supplement submission and the early efforts with Ascensia we are excited and well positioned for a potential launch of the 180-day product in the first half of next year. We continue to drive execution across the company, including our product development and commercialization efforts with our partner Ascensia, while supporting our approximately 5,000 active patients globally. With our strategic partnership set we believe we are continuing to build a compelling value proposition for patients with diabetes.”

Anticipated Key Milestones:

Q1 2021 – Proposed Medicare National Payment Schedule
Q1 2021 – Initiation of commercial activities outside of the U.S. by Ascensia
H1 2021 – Expected decision on approval of 180-day Eversense product by FDA
H1 2021 – Planned IDE approval of 365-day Eversense clinical trial by FDA, including pediatric population
H2 2021 – Planned enrollment of 365-day Eversense clinical trial

Third Quarter 2020 Results:

In the third quarter of 2020, revenue was reduced due to the temporary suspension of commercial operations in March in the U.S. following restructuring of the organization to preserve cash, as well as the effects of temporary patient deferments resulting from the global pandemic. Total net revenue for the quarter was $767 thousand compared to total net revenue of $4.3 million for the third quarter of 2019. U.S. net revenue was $509 thousand after accounting for gross to net adjustments. Net revenue outside the U.S. was $258 thousand due to the deferral of orders by Roche.

Third quarter 2020 gross profit increased by $4.2 million year-over-year, to $835 thousand. The positive gross margin in the quarter was primarily due to the ability to fill resupply orders with existing written off inventory as existing patient reinsertion rates were above the expectations established in the first quarter of 2020 amid the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Third quarter 2020 sales and marketing expenses decreased by $8.3 million year-over-year, to $3.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to the recent changes in commercial activities.

Third quarter 2020 research and development expenses decreased by $6.5 million year-over-year, to $4.6 million. The decrease was primarily driven by lower clinical study costs and personnel related expenses.

Third quarter 2020 general and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million year-over-year, to $5.5 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation expenses.

Net loss was $23.4 million, or $0.10 per share, in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $19.5 million, or $0.10 per share, in the third quarter of 2019. Net loss increased by $3.9 million due to a $22.9 million increase to other expenses primarily related to the accounting of the company’s financings partially offset by a $18.9 million decrease in loss from operations.

As of September 30, 2020, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $26.4 million and outstanding indebtedness was $123.4 million.
