Latest News by Industry
CAESAREA, Israel, Dec. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- IceCure Medical Ltd. (Nasdaq: ICCM) (TASE: ICCM) ("IceCure" or the "Company"), developer of minimally-invasive cryoablation technology, the ProSense® System, that destroys tumors by freezing as an alternative to surgical tumor removal ("ProSense"), today reported financial results as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and operational and commercial highlights for the third quarter.
Third Quarter 2022 Commercial and Operational Highlights
"We have edged closer to commercialization of ProSense for breast cancer in the U.S. with our recent FDA filing for marketing approval, and the assignment of a Medicare CPT III reimbursement code. IceCure has taken a leadership role in the industry based on our vast ICE 3 breast cancer cryoablation clinical data and by receiving the CMS's first payment assignment for cryoablation of breast cancer," stated IceCure's CEO Eyal Shamir. "While our quarterly revenues may continue to fluctuate in the near future, increased sales of our disposable cryoprobes during the current nine month period ended September 30, 2022 point to greater end-user adoption and more people being treated with ProSense. We believe this is a positive indication for the market acceptance of our liquid-nitrogen-based cryoablation therapy which will translate into sales."
Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, revenue decreased by 22% to approximately $2.1 million, compared to approximately $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease is due to decreased revenue recognition of approximately $0.5 million from the distribution agreements with Terumo Corporation and a decrease in sales of new systems, which was partially offset by higher sales of disposable probes as previously sold and installed systems were utilized for procedures in clinical settings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, sales in the U.S. and Europe increased by 65% and 37%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in sales in the U.S. and Europe was offset by a decrease in sales in Asia and other territories.
Gross profit was approximately $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Gross margin was approximately 46% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately 56% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross margin compared to the same period last year was attributable to the decrease in sales and in revenue recognition from the Terumo distribution agreement.
Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were approximately $6.9 million, compared to approximately $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was attributed to acceleration in the development of IceCure's next-generation single-probe system and due to clinical and regulatory activities.
Sales, marketing and general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were approximately $6.9 million, compared to approximately $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was attributed to the Company's expanding commercialization efforts and to increased Nasdaq listing-related expenses.
Total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were approximately $13.8 million, compared to approximately $8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to increased development, commercialization, and Nasdaq listing-related activities.
As a result of lower revenue and increased operation activities, net loss reported for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased to approximately $13 million, or $0.35 per share, compared with a net loss of approximately $6.7 million, or $0.25 per share, for the same period last year.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents including short-term deposits of approximately $14.2 million, compared to approximately $25.6 million as of December 31, 2021.
