LAWRENCE, Mass., Dec. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NxStage Medical, Inc. , today released its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2005.
Revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 was $1.5 million, a 239% increase over revenue of $442 thousand for the third quarter of 2004. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 revenue was $3.9 million, a 240% increase over revenue of $1.2 million for the first nine months of 2004.
Revenues in the chronic home dialysis market were $872 thousand for the third quarter of 2005, a 440% increase over revenues of $162 thousand in the chronic market for the third quarter of 2004. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 revenues in the chronic home dialysis market were $1.8 million, a 462% increase over chronic revenues of $327 thousand for the first nine months of 2004. By the end of the third quarter, NxStage was working with 53 dialysis centers to provide home hemodialysis therapy to 212 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with its System One portable dialysis machine.
“Our third quarter revenue growth demonstrates that the System One is gaining recognition as a highly-effective, more convenient therapy for patients suffering from end-stage renal disease and acute kidney failure. We are particularly pleased with our continued traction in the chronic market and we are aggressively pursuing our goal of becoming the market leader in home hemodialysis,” said Jeff Burbank, President and Chief Executive Officer of NxStage.
In the critical care market, NxStage recently won a significant competitive order for several systems. “Critical care customers continue to praise how the System One enables therapy and dose flexibility, while saving nursing time and effort. The System One is now being used by more than 40 acute care hospitals in the United States,” said Mr. Burbank.
NxStage reported a net loss of $6.6 million for the third quarter of 2005 compared with a net loss of $3.6 million for the third quarter of 2004, reflecting research and development costs for the ongoing development of System One as well as increased sales and marketing spending following clearance by the Food and Drug Administration of a home hemodialysis indication for the System One in June 2005. For the first nine months of 2005, the net loss was $17.1 million compared to $10.7 million in the first nine months of 2004.
Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2005 were $12.5 million, which excludes the net proceeds of approximately $56.7 million from the sale of 6,325,000 shares of common stock in an initial public offering which closed on November 1, 2005. “NxStage’s mission is to bring effective hemodialysis to the home, adding convenience and flexibility to patients’ lives, while improving their health. We welcome the support of our new shareholders in achieving this important goal,” Mr. Burbank said.
Guidance for the fourth quarter of 2005
For the fourth quarter of 2005, NxStage expects revenues in the range of $1.8 million to $2.2 million, and a net loss in the range of -$6.9 million to -$7.3 million. The Company anticipates providing guidance for the year 2006 in February 2006 after it reports the results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2005.
