CAESAREA, Israel, Aug. 11, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Itamar Medical Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: ITMR), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of non-invasive medical devices and solutions to aid in the diagnosis of respiratory sleep disorders, today reported unaudited financial results for the second quarter of 2020.

“Our second quarter results reflect encouraging growth and we have taken several steps to capitalize on this momentum. The recent traction among both new and existing customers in the context of survey results from 300 centers indicating volumes of 70% Home Sleep Apnea Tests versus volumes of 30% in-lab1 is a testament to the advantage of our home-based and digital care pathway sleep solutions and our ability to reach the large undiagnosed patient population suffering from sleep apnea,” said Gilad Glick, President and Chief Executive Officer of Itamar Medical.

“While we are pleased with our solid results, there are still many macro factors that remain fluid as the pandemic unfolds, leading to our cautious near-term outlook as we approach the second half of the year. Nonetheless, this does not change our long-term value proposition or market opportunity,” concluded Glick.

Second Quarter 2020 Highlights

  • Revenues in the second quarter of 2020 were $8.9 million, an increase of 21% year-over-year.
  • U.S WatchPAT revenues in the second quarter of 2020 were $6.6 million, an increase of 31% year-over-year.

Recent Business and Production Updates

  • Doubled WatchPAT ONE production capacity from approximately 3,000 units per week in May to approximately 6,000 units per week in June to meet the overwhelming demand as seen in our backlog from the first quarter, which, as a result, is now normalized.
  • Active centers using WatchPAT ONE reached a total of 291 after onboarding over 10 new customers per week on average throughout the second quarter.

Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Revenues for the second quarter of 2020 increased 21% to $8.9 million, compared to $7.4 million in the same quarter in 2019. Revenue growth was driven by an increase in WatchPAT sales in the U.S. and Japan, offset by a decrease in WatchPAT sales in Europe and in the rest of the world.

WatchPAT revenues for the second quarter of 2020 increased 20% to $7.9 million, compared to $6.5 million in the same quarter in 2019.

U.S. WatchPAT revenues for the second quarter of 2020 increased 31% to $6.6 million, compared to $5.0 million in the same quarter in 2019, driven primarily by WatchPAT ONE sales as well as WatchPAT Direct sales. Sales from disposables and renewable products, including WatchPAT ONE, comprised approximately 78% of WatchPAT revenues in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 65% in the same quarter in 2019.

Operating loss for the second quarter of 2020 was $3.2 million, compared to $1.7 million in the same quarter in 2019. The increase in operating loss was primarily attributable to an increase in operating expenses, partially offset by the increase in revenues. Selling and marketing expenses increased 31% to $5.9 million, compared to $4.5 million in the same quarter in 2019, due to the planned expansion of the U.S. sales team into new geographical territories and verticals (32 territories and verticals as of June 30, 2020, compared to 27 territories and verticals as of June 30, 2019), as well as additional sales commissions resulting from the increase in revenues.

Non-IFRS operating loss excludes approximately $0.8 million in share-based payments; depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets; change in provision for doubtful and bad debt; and expenses relating to reduction in manpower, compared to $0.8 million of similar expenses for the same quarter in 2019 (see “Use of Non-IFRS Measures” below).
