Axonics Modulation Technologies Inc. (AXNX) Tops Q1 EPS by 18c
Axonics Modulation Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: AXNX) reported Q1 EPS of ($0.43), $0.18 better than the analyst estimate of ($0.61). Revenue for the quarter came in at $26.3 million versus the consensus estimate of $15.16 million.
Raymond W. Cohen, CEO of Axonics, commented, “We are quite proud of this quarter’s exceptional revenue result considering we had only been in the market for two months prior to the start of 2020. Moreover, we believe that this result ranks among the highest revenue total generated in the history of the medical device industry for a company’s first full quarter of sales in the U.S. following FDA approval. The results are a testament to the quality of our 170 person U.S. commercial team and were driven by the overwhelmingly positive response from the SNM implanting community and their patients to the introduction of a bespoke SNM device that is intuitive, fuss-free, long-lived, MRI compatible, safe and clinically effective. This quarter’s results reinforce our confidence that the SNM market is poised for meaningful expansion in the years ahead, driven to a large extent by Axonics’ continuous innovation and commitment to increasing patient awareness. As elective procedures are rescheduled, we expect to be very active in the months ahead as more patients say ‘yes’ to Axonics and SNM therapy. Despite the setback from COVID-19, we remain bullish about our prospects for continued growth in 2020 and beyond.”
Mr. Cohen continued, “The Axonics team would like to express its gratitude to the courageous and selfless healthcare workers providing care for those impacted by COVID-19. At Axonics, we remain focused on supporting our customers and their patients as well as protecting the health of our employees and their families.”
