TORONTO, Aug. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Profound Medical Corp. (NASDAQ:PROF; TSX:PRN) (“Profound” or the “Company”), a commercial-stage medical device company that develops and markets customizable, incision-free therapies for the ablation of diseased tissue, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023. Unless specified otherwise, all amounts in this press release are expressed in U.S. dollars and are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board applicable to the preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements, including International Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

“This quarter was highlighted by the American Medical Association’s establishment of three new Current Procedural Terminology, or CPT®, Category 1 codes specific to the TULSA procedure, which is a critical milestone for the broader adoption of the technology to treat prostate diseases in the United States,” said Arun Menawat, Profound’s CEO and Chairman. “In addition, we saw a 38% increase in recurring revenue over Q2-2022, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of recurring revenue growth. For the remainder of 2023, we expect to see an increased pace of U.S. TULSA adoption, driven by a continuing, if not accelerating, trend of recurring revenue growth, as well as the addition of several new sites to our installed base of TULSA-PRO® systems.”

Summary Second Quarter 2023 Results

For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded revenue of approximately $1.6 million, with the full amount coming from recurring revenue, which consists of the sale of TULSA-PRO® consumables, lease of medical devices, procedures and services associated with extended warranties. This compares to revenue of approximately $2.0 million in the same three-month period a year ago, which included $1.2 million in recurring revenue and $864,000 from the one-time sale of capital equipment in international markets.

Total operating expenses, which consist of research and development (“R&D”), general and administrative (“G&A”), and selling and distribution (“S&D”) expenses, were approximately $7.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 14% decrease from approximately $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Expenditures for R&D for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were approximately $3.2 million, a decrease of 14% compared with approximately $3.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to: lower headcount and reimbursement of workforce costs associated with a research project; a decrease in share based compensation due to fewer awards granted for employees; decreases in other expenses because of lower office supplies purchased; and lower amortization expenses due to intangible assets associated with the Sonalleve® brand and technology being fully amortized. Partially offsetting these amounts was an increase in clinical trial costs associated with the CAPTAIN trial treatments and recruitment efforts.

G&A expenses for the 2023 second quarter decreased by 21% to approximately $2.1 million, compared with approximately $2.6 million in the same period in 2022, due primarily to lower salaries and benefits, decreased software expenses, and decreased license costs for enterprise resource planning and customer relationship management software. These were partially offset by increased insurance costs.

Second quarter 2023 S&D expenses decreased by 6% to approximately $2.3 million, compared with $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2022. This was driven lower salaries, benefits and share based compensation. Partially offsetting these amounts was an increase in consulting fees, marketing, travel and other expenses due to increased in-person conferences, customer meetings, release of patient videos, marketing materials and overall increase to general expenses.

Net finance costs for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were approximately $884,000, compared with approximate net finance income of $1.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Second quarter 2023 net loss was approximately $7.4 million, or $0.35 per common share, compared to approximately $5.9 million, or $0.28 per common share, in the three months ended June 30, 2022.

As at June 30, 2023, Profound had cash of approximately $39.3 million.

About Profound Medical Corp.

Profound is a commercial-stage medical device company that develops and markets customizable, incision-free therapies for the ablation of diseased tissue.

Profound is commercializing TULSA-PRO®, a technology that combines real-time MRI, robotically-driven transurethral ultrasound and closed-loop temperature feedback control. TULSA-PRO® is designed to provide customizable and predictable radiation-free ablation of a surgeon-defined prostate volume while actively protecting the urethra and rectum to help preserve the patient’s natural functional abilities. TULSA-PRO® has the potential to be a flexible technology in customizable prostate ablation, including intermediate stage cancer, localized radio-recurrent cancer, retention and hematuria palliation in locally advanced prostate cancer, and the transition zone in large volume benign prostatic hyperplasia (“BPH”). TULSA-PRO® is CE marked, Health Canada approved, and 510(k) cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”).

Profound is also commercializing Sonalleve®, an innovative therapeutic platform that is CE marked for the treatment of uterine fibroids and palliative pain treatment of bone metastases. Sonalleve® has also been approved by the China National Medical Products Administration for the non-invasive treatment of uterine fibroids and has FDA approval under a Humanitarian Device Exemption for the treatment of osteoid osteoma. The Company is in the early stages of exploring additional potential treatment markets for Sonalleve® where the technology has been shown to have clinical application, such as non-invasive ablation of abdominal cancers and hyperthermia for cancer therapy.
