Ad hoc announcement

 

 

MacroPore Biosurgery, Inc. Reports 2nd Quarter Results — Revenues Up 26.6%
in First Half of 2003

 

 

San Diego, CA / Königstein/Ts., August 14, 2003. MacroPore Biosurgery, Inc. (Frankfurt Stock Exchange: XMP) today reported results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2003, we reported revenue of $4.832 million, a 26.6% increase over the six month period ended June 30, 2002.  The six month period ended June 30, 2003 net loss was $5.339 million compared to net loss of $4.537 million in the year earlier period.

For the three month period ended June 30, 2003, we reported revenues of $2.903 million, a 7.2% increase over the three month period ended June 30, 2002.  The second quarter 2003 net loss was $2.059 million compared to net loss of $1.603 million for second quarter 2002.

“In the second quarter, MacroPore achieved year over year revenue growth for the fifth consecutive quarter from the sale of our bioresorbable implants,” said Chris Calhoun, President and CEO. “The company continues to increase market penetration for its current biosurgical products, grow the polymer implant product line through the development of new technologies, and advance our regenerative cell therapy program closer to human trials. On the basis of current information and product launch schedules, we expect the third quarter of 2003 to be the strongest revenue quarter in MacroPore’s history.

MacroPore Biosurgery achieved several key milestones and accomplishments during the second quarter of 2003 that strengthen our business in the bioresorbable market.

                 Market penetration of HYDROSORB products, sold by Medtronic Sofamor Danek has increased significantly with surgeon adoption growing each month. In addition, several new products have been developed with introductions planned for the 4th quarter of 2003.

                 Clinical experience in certain spinal applications has now exceeded 2 year follow-up and has been favorable. This experience is being compiled for publication and demonstrates results comparable to allograft bone with the added advantage of easier fusion assessment, and predictable resorption / replacement with remodeled bone.

                 Postoperative clinical re-look assessments of SurgiWrapi™ bioresorbable thin film have demonstrated 82% effectiveness in reducing the incidence and severity of postoperative adhesions. SurgiWrapi™ film is covered by issued U.S. Patent No. 6,531,146.
