SANUWAVE HEALTH REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FinANCIAL RESULTS
AND PROVIDES A BUSINESS UPDATE
ALPHARETTA, GA, August 11, 2015 - SANUWAVE Health, Inc. (OTCQB: SNWV), today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and provided a business update. The Company will host a conference call tomorrow, Wednesday, August 12, 2015, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.
Highlights of the second quarter and recent weeks:
"We have had a very busy second quarter, achieving many of the milestones we established on our last conference call," stated Kevin A. Richardson, II, Chairman of the board of SANUWAVE. "We extended the due date of our debt with HealthTronics, which will allow us the flexibility to complete our PMA submission. Our shareholders overwhelming approved an increase in authorized shares, which will allow us to raise adequate capital to move forward as a company. At the same time we are well aware of making sure we minimize dilution to our faithful shareholders. We also had an extremely positive meeting with the FDA in June and now feel confident that when our top line data is revealed, in early September, we will be in a position to successfully submit our PMA to the FDA. In addition, we expanded our patent portfolio and have seen a strong level of inbound interest in commercializing our patent portfolio."
"As we look at the remainder of 2015 we have three milestones which need to be met: 1) reveal top line data from the study, 2) begin submission of the PMA to the FDA, and 3) raise capital or complete a joint venture, partnership or sale of the wound product to complete the FDA trial successfully and begin commercialization of the product in 2016. We are also working on a number of other non-medical initiatives, which we will keep shareholders abreast of as they occur," concluded Mr. Richardson.
Second Quarter Financial Results
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were $239,983, compared to $238,115 for the same period in 2014, an increase of $1,868, or 1%. The increase in revenues for 2015 was due to higher sales of orthoPACE devices.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were $456,789, compared to $1,013,652 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of $556,863, or 55%. Research and development costs decreased in 2015 as a result of lower payments to third party clinical sites participating in the dermaPACE clinical study as there were fewer active patients in the clinical study as compared to the prior period.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were $636,570, as compared to $694,402 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of $57,832, or 8%. General and administrative expenses in 2014 included consulting costs related to the capital raises completed in March 2014. The lower consulting costs were partially offset by higher legal fees in 2015 related to patent filings.
Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $1,521,533, or ($0.02) per share, compared to a net loss of $1,693,650, or ($0.03) per share, for the same period in 2014, a decrease in the net loss of $172,117, or 10%. The decrease in the net loss was primarily a result of reduced operating expenses in 2015 discussed above offset by the loss on the warrant valuation adjustment.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 Financial Results
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $450,435, compared to $383,213 for the same period in 2014, an increase of $67,222, or 18%. The increase in revenues for 2015 was due to higher sales of orthoPACE devices in Europe.
Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $1,091,412, compared to $1,778,497 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of $687,085, or 39%. Research and development costs decreased in 2015 as a result of lower payments to third party clinical sites participating in the dermaPACE clinical study as there were fewer active patients in the clinical study as compared to the prior period.
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $1,202,862, as compared to $1,994,713 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of $791,851, or 40%. General and administrative expenses in 2014 included consulting costs related to the capital raises completed in March 2014. The lower consulting costs were partially offset by higher legal fees in 2015 related to patent filings.
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $2,680,648, or ($0.04) per share, compared to a net loss of $4,257,604, or ($0.10) per share, for the same period in 2014, a decrease in the net loss of $1,576,956, or 37%. The decrease in the net loss was primarily a result of reduced operating expenses in 2015 discussed above.
On June 30, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,615,727 compared with $3,547,071 as of December 31, 2014, a decrease of $1,931,344. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, net cash used by operating activities was $1,917,858, compared to $4,093,335 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of $2,175,477, or 53%. The decrease in cash used by operations was primarily due to the lower operating expenses in 2015 and the reduction of accounts payable and accrued expenses in 2014.
The Company will also host a conference call on Wednesday, August 12, 2015, beginning at 10 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss the second quarter financial results, provide a business update and answer questions.
