CAESAREA, Israel, August 10, 2021-- Itamar Medical Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: ITMR), a leading medical device and digital health company focused on the integration of sleep apnea management into the cardiac patient care pathway, today reported unaudited financial results for the second quarter of 2021.

 

“Our second quarter results demonstrated further growth as our WatchPAT™ technology continued to gain recognition as a safe and effective method for home-based sleep apnea testing,” said Gilad Glick, President and Chief Executive Officer of Itamar Medical. “Core sleep in the U.S. continues to be our most significant growth driver, with double digit growth in nearly every region during the quarter. We also began to see the benefit of the recent elimination of the G-code loophole in Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) covering about 60% of Medicare beneficiaries, paving the way for further share gains and materially enhancing our competitive market positioning. In our Cardiology business, we were pleased to see the American Heart Association publish a formal statement on the importance of sleep apnea management in cardiac care for the first time. We are very encouraged by our increasing opportunity to be a meaningful part of this estimated $2.7 billion market in the U.S.”

 

“We see continuing momentum as we enter the second half of 2021, giving us the confidence to raise our guidance for full year revenues. Investing for long-term growth remains top of mind and importantly, we have the financial resources to do so,” concluded Glick.

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

 

Revenues for the second quarter of 2021 increased 41% to $12.6 million, compared to $8.9 million in the same quarter in 2020. Revenue growth was mainly driven by an increase in WatchPAT sales in the U.S.

 

Worldwide WatchPAT revenues for the second quarter of 2021 increased 52% to $12.0 million, compared to $7.9 million in the same quarter in 2020.

 

U.S. WatchPAT revenues for the second quarter of 2021 increased 53% to $10.1 million, compared to $6.6 million in the same quarter in 2020, driven mainly by WatchPAT ONE sales, as well as WatchPAT Direct sales. Sales from disposables and renewable products, including WatchPAT ONE, comprised approximately 77% of WatchPAT revenues in the U.S. for the second quarter of 2021, compared to 78% for the same quarter in 2020.

 

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2021 increased to $8.9 million, compared to $6.0 million in the same quarter in 2020. Gross margin increased to 71%, compared to 68% in the same quarter in 2020. Non-IFRS gross margin (see Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Financial Measures below) increased to 73%, compared to 70% in the same quarter in 2020. The improvement in gross margin is primarily attributable to a consistent decrease in WatchPAT ONE production costs and increased efficiency and cost reduction in the production process. (See “Use of Non-IFRS Measures” below).

 

Operating loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $4.6 million, compared to $3.2 million in the same quarter in 2020. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses, partially offset by the increase in revenues. Operating expense increase was mainly driven by the following:

 

-Selling and marketing expenses increased 26% to $7.5 million, compared to $5.9 million in the same quarter in 2020, due to expansion of field force related expenses, resuming of travel and increased consulting fees relating to reimbursement in the U.S., Australia, China and Japan.

 

-Research and development expenses increased 145% to $3.4 million, compared to $1.4 million in the same quarter in 2020, driven by expenses of $1.1 million associated with research and development of the acquired Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) technology assets from SPRY, including amortization of intangible assets of $0.4 million, increased personnel to support product development, mainly related to the Company’s digital health platform, and increased share-based payments.

 

-General and administrative expenses increased 39% to $2.7 million, compared to $1.9 million in the same quarter in 2020, mainly driven by an increase in payroll and related expenses due to increase in personnel, increase in directors’ and officers’ insurance premium, as well as increased legal expenses, including a commercial dispute in defense of our intellectual property initiated by the Company.

 

Non-IFRS operating loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $3.1 million, compared to $2.4 million in the same quarter in 2020. Non-IFRS operating loss excluded approximately $1.5 million in share-based payments; depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets; change in provision for doubtful and bad debt; and other non-recurring expenses, compared to $0.8 million of similar expenses for the same quarter in 2020 (see “Use of Non-IFRS Measures” below).

 

Net loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $4.7 million, compared to $3.2 million in the same quarter in 2020.

 

Non-IFRS net loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $3.2 million, compared to $2.4 million in the same quarter in 2020. Non-IFRS net loss excluded approximately $1.5 million in share-based payments; depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets; change in provision for doubtful and bad debt; and other non-recurring expenses, compared to $0.8 million of similar expenses and gains for the same quarter in 2020 (see “Use of Non-IFRS Measures” below).

First Half 2020 Financial Results

 

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 42% to $24.5 million, compared to $17.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Revenue growth was mainly driven by an increase in WatchPAT sales in the U.S., and the increase in total sales in Europe and in the rest of the world.

 

WatchPAT revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 43% to $22.9 million, compared to $16.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

U.S. WatchPAT revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 46% to $18.5 million, compared to $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, driven mainly by WatchPAT ONE sales, as well as WatchPAT Direct sales. Sales from disposables and renewable products, including WatchPAT ONE, comprised approximately 78% of WatchPAT revenues in the U.S. for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 77% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased to $17.0 million, compared to $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Gross margin decreased to 69%, compared to 72% the six months ended June 30, 2020. Gross margin decline was mainly driven by non-recurring expenses of $0.4 million related to relocating the Company’s production facilities to a new location during the first quarter of 2021 and increased WatchPAT ONE sales, offset by improvement attributable to a consistent decrease in WatchPAT ONE production costs and increased efficiency and cost reduction in the production process in the second quarter of 2021. Non-IFRS gross margin (see Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS Financial Measures below) decreased to 72%, compared to 73% in the six months ended June 30, 2020. Non-IFRS gross margin decline was mainly driven by the increase in WatchPAT ONE sales, offset by improvement attributable to a consistent decrease in WatchPAT ONE production costs and increased efficiency and cost reduction in the production process in the second quarter of 2021. (See “Use of Non-IFRS Measures” below).

 

Operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $9.9 million, compared to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses, partially offset by the increase in revenues. Operating expense increase was mainly driven by the following:

 

-Operating expenses include $1.1 million (recorded in the first quarter of 2021) related to non-recurring share-based payments resulting from the extended exercise period of vested service options from five to ten years.

 

-Selling and marketing expenses increased 32% to $14.8 million, compared to $11.2 million in the same period in 2020, due to the planned expansion of the U.S. sales team into new geographical territories and verticals (37 territories and verticals as of June 30, 2021, compared to 32 territories and verticals as of June 30, 2020), as well as additional sales commissions resulting from the increase in revenues, resuming travel, increased consulting fees relating to reimbursement in the U.S., Australia, China and Japan, and increased share-based payments, as mentioned above.

 

-Research and development expenses increased 134% to $6.3 million, compared to $2.7 million in the same period in 2020, driven by expenses of $1.9 million associated with research and development of the acquired RPM technology assets from SPRY, including amortization of intangible assets of $0.7 million, increased personnel to support product development, mainly related to the Company’s digital health platform, and an increased share-based payments, as mentioned above.

-General and administrative expenses increased 59% to $5.8 million, compared to $3.6 million in the same period in 2020, mainly driven by an increase in payroll and related expenses due to increase in personnel, increase in directors’ and officers’ insurance premium, as well as increased legal expenses, including a commercial dispute in defense of our intellectual property initiated by the Company, and an increased share-based payments, as mentioned above.

 

Non-IFRS operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $5.9 million, compared to $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Non-IFRS operating loss excluded approximately $4.0 million in share-based payments; depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible asset; change in provision for doubtful and bad debt; non-recurring expenses related to relocating our production facilities to a new location; and other non-recurring expenses, compared to $1.4 million of similar expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (see “Use of Non-IFRS Measures” below).

Use of Non-IFRS Measures

 

In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB), this press release contains Non-IFRS financial measures for operating loss and net loss, which are adjusted from results based on IFRS to exclude: (i) share-based payments; (ii) depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets; (iii) change in provision for doubtful and bad debt; (iv) non-recurring expenses related to relocating production facilities to a new location; and (v) other non-recurring expenses. Management believes that the Non-IFRS financial measures provided in this press release are useful to investors’ understanding and assessment of the Company’s performance. Management uses both IFRS and Non-IFRS measures when operating and evaluating the Company’s business internally and therefore decided to make these Non-IFRS adjustments available to investors. The presentation of this Non-IFRS financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS. For further details, see a reconciliation of operating loss and net loss on an IFRS basis to a Non-IFRS basis that is provided in the table that accompanies this press release.
