PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Regulatory News:
STENTYS (Paris: STNT) (FR0010949404 — STNT), a medical technology company commercializing the Xposition S self-apposing coronary stent, today reports its quarterly revenue and cash position at March 31, 2018.
First-quarter revenues*
| € thousands | Q1 2018 | Q1 2017 | % change | |||
| Europe (1) | 869.2 | 1,241.6 | -30% | |||
| Rest of the world | 469.6 | 597.3 | -21% | |||
| Total revenues | 1,338.8 | 1,838.9 | -27% |
* Data reviewed by the statutory auditors, presented in accordance with IFRS 15 (mandatory application) with no difference compared with IAS 18 applied in 2017(1) Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Poland, The Netherlands, France, Belgium, United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal and Nordic countries.
STENTYS recorded revenues of €1.3 million in the first quarter of 2018, down 27% on the first quarter of 2017. This decrease was due to delivery delays from a subcontractor resulting in stock shortages of the Xposition S stent at the end of the period and to a decrease in activity of some of the distributors associated with the context of the MINVASYS acquisition. In Europe, the supply difficulties have not enabled the renewal of some hospital inventories, however this issue will be resolved before the end of April and should lead to a return to a normal level of activity during the second quarter.
Solid cash position of €18 million
The Company had a cash position of €18 million at March 31, 2018, before the €6.5 million cash disbursed for the acquisition of MINVASYS, providing STENTYS with the necessary resources to deploy its commercial strategy.
Commercial launch of Serpentis
Following conclusive trials in target centers across Europe and the granting of the first market authorizations, STENTYS announces the official commercial launch of Serpentis, its latest-generation Sirolimus-eluting stent with a thin cobalt-chrome mesh and a bio-absorbable polymer coating. STENTYS thus expands its proprietary product portfolio to cover all market indications: Serpentis for routine procedures and Xposition S for complex procedures.
Christophe Lottin, Chief Executive Officer of STENTYS, comments: “The first quarter of the year, which nevertheless should be promising in terms of activity, saw a decrease as a result of an exceptional situation at the end of the period. However, the imminent signing of the acquisition of MINVASYS will allow us to launch a joint commercial offer that should rapidly stimulate our different sales networks and enable us to benefit from an extended geographical coverage in over 60 countries. Lastly, following a constructive and successful pre-commercialization phase, from April we will carry out the commercial launch of our new Serpentis stent. We therefore remain confident that we will achieve a solid pro-forma annual revenue growth in 2018.”
