Management Comments
“The third quarter marked an inflection point for Bovie Medical,” said Robert L. Gershon, Chief Executive Officer. “The steady build-up in surgeon adoption of J-Plasma® was reflected in major sequential increases across all of our commercialization metrics, from Scrub Purchase Orders through Generators in Use. This strong momentum resulted in third quarter J-Plasma® sales that exceeded the aggregate sales for the first two quarters of 2015. At the same time, our core business revenues increased in line with our expectation for higher electro-generator sales in the second half of 2015, and continued to provide important infrastructure support for the J-Plasma® roll-out.”
“The leading indicators for J-Plasma® have reached a level that we expect should yield strong sales momentum in the coming periods. With 62 generators in use, we have the scale we need to increase adoption within our current installed base and move forward to broaden adoption within those hospitals where J-Plasma® is VAC-approved, while expanding the universe of surgeons who are using the product. By the end of the third quarter there were 132 surgeons using J-Plasma®, a significant increase from the 76 surgeons who were using the product three months earlier.
“J-Plasma® is increasingly being recognized by top surgeons across a range of specialties for its precision and effectiveness. Last quarter we announced the formation of a Medical Advisory Board to assist us in executing on a multi-specialty J-Plasma® strategy, and we named Dr. Vip Patel, a world renowned urologist and leader in robotic surgery as its first member. In the third quarter, we added two equally impressive members: Dr. Husam H. Balkhy, a pioneer in the field of minimally invasive and robotic cardiac surgery and Dr. Robert J. Cerfolio, an internationally recognized expert in robotic cardiothoracic surgery. Expansion of J-Plasma® target specialties to urology, cardiovascular and cardio thoracic surgery under the guidance of these well-recognized thought leaders should significantly increase the size of J-Plasma®’s addressable market. Additionally, this strategy should accelerate the hospital VAC approval process, which continues to extend our sales cycle.”
Third Quarter 2015 Results
Third quarter sales were $7.8 million, up 15.3% from $6.8 million in the third quarter of 2014 on higher sales of core, OEM, and J-Plasma® products. Gross margin was 41.3%, stable with last year’s third quarter adjusted gross margin of 41.3%. In last year’s third quarter the Company reported gross margin of 28.3%, which included costs related to excess and obsolete inventories and other adjustments.
Operating expenses totaled $5.0 million in the third quarter, compared to $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2014. Approximately 80% of the year-on-year increase in operating expenses represented additional spending on R&D and the commercialization of J-Plasma®; SG&A remained stable both sequentially and year-on-year, as higher sales commissions were offset by administrative cost reductions. The Company’s operating loss was $1.8 million, compared to an operating loss of $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2014.
GAAP net loss attributable to common shareholders for the third quarter was $1.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net loss attributable to common shareholders of $3.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2014.
The Company had unrestricted cash and cash and equivalents of $13.2 million at the end of the third quarter, compared to $14.1 million at the end of this year’s second quarter.
Recent Developments
Bovie announced the purchase of its Bulgarian R&D and manufacturing contractor (“Bovie Bulgaria”) for approximately $566,000 in cash. Bovie Bulgaria operates a 16,000 square foot ISO13485 certified and FDA registered manufacturing facility located in the capital city of Sofia, which houses manufacturing, development and assembly operations. The transaction gives Bovie full control over this important part of its product development and supply chain, particularly with respect to R&D for advanced surgical energy technology including key components of its J-Plasma® product line.
Bovie received FDA 510(k) clearance for six new hand piece configurations that expand its J-Plasma® pistol grip portfolio, by expanding the range of instrument lengths and adding a new needle configuration to the standard blade configuration.
The Bovie® Ultimate™ Operating Room Generator was named an “Innovation of the Year” by The Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons (SLS) on September 2, 2015.
Bovie signed its first group purchasing organization (GPO) agreement with Amerinet, one of the nation’s largest healthcare GPOs, for the use of J-Plasma® by its members. Amerinet has more than 85,000 members, including 33,000 clinics, 3,500 acute care hospitals, and 3,300 ambulatory surgery centers.
Jay Ewers was named Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Ewers has served as interim CFO since mid-June of this year and was previously the Company’s Corporate Controller.
The Medical Advisory Board
In the second quarter of 2015, Bovie established a Medical Advisory Board that will consist of surgeons who are thought-leaders in a range of different specialties and named Dr. Vipul Patel, a world renowned urologist and leader in robotic surgery, as its first member. Ultimately, the Board is expected to have 6 to 9 members and lead the usage of J-Plasma® for specific procedures within new target specialties including, but not limited to, cardiovascular, cardiothoracic and urology.
In the third quarter, the Board was increased to 3 members with the addition of two world-class surgeons:
Dr. Husam H. Balkhy, is Director of Robotic and Minimally Invasive and Cardiac Surgery, and Associate Professor of Surgery at The University of Chicago Medicine. Recognized as a pioneer in the field, he specializes in cardiac diseases, using robotic and less invasive techniques to reduce pain, disability, and recovery time.
Dr. Robert J. Cerfolio is an internationally recognized expert in robotic thoracic surgery. He received the James H. Estes Family Lung Cancer Research Endowed Chair in 2010, and Dr. Cerfolio is currently Professor of Surgery and Section Chief of Thoracic Surgery in the Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, at the University of Alabama Hospital in Birmingham.
“We are honored that Drs. Balkhy and Cerfolio have agreed to join our Medical Advisory Board and assist us in bringing the significant surgical advantages of J-Plasma® to the appropriate procedures within their areas of expertise,” Mr. Gershon noted.
“Accuracy and safety is paramount for all surgeons,” said Dr. Balkhy. “In cardiac surgery, J-Plasma® has the potential not only to improve accuracy and safety but will allow surgeons to operate with even more precision. J-Plasma® promises to be a very strong addition to the armamentarium of the heart surgeon.”
“J-Plasma® is potentially a revolutionary instrument and represents a paradigm shift in thoracic surgery,” said Dr. Cerfolio. “J-Plasma®'s combination of power and the ability to penetrate tissue less deeply means it could play a pivotal role in teaching younger surgeons and residents, and it may soon be a must-have in the armamentarium of any thoracic surgeon.”
Summary and Outlook:
“Our third quarter results represented significant progress in J-Plasma® sales, substantial momentum in those metrics that provide a roadmap for future J-Plasma® sales, and continued growth in our core business. This performance has laid the foundation for further positive revenue comparisons in both J-Plasma® and our core business this year, as we develop the pipeline that we have built over the last twelve months.
“Within this framework we remain diligent in managing our administrative and other non-revenue generating costs as well as our cash position, while investing in those areas that have the potential to drive future growth. We expect to achieve additional operating expense savings in 2016 and 2017 related to the purchase of our R&D and manufacturing contractor, Bovie Bulgaria, which we announced in mid-October.
“Looking to 2016, we expect our revenue performance to benefit from further sequential increases in J-Plasma® operating metrics in our initial target specialties and a continuation of steady progress in our core business. Additionally, we are working closely with the members of our Medical Advisory Board to identify and appropriately target those procedures for which J-Plasma® can become the standard of care within the high profile urology, cardiovascular and cardio thoracic surgical specialties, as well as further advancing its visibility within our immediate target specialty of gynecology. Importantly, we have a transformational product with an excellent track record, the right surgeon advocates, a direct sales force with multi-specialty experience, and the resources to capture a greater share of an expanded market,” Mr. Gershon concluded.
