CVRx Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial and Operating Results

 

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 4, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CVRx, Inc. ("CVRx"), a commercial-stage medical device company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing innovative neuromodulation solutions for patients with cardiovascular diseases, today announced its financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2024.

 

Recent Highlights

 

·Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $15.3 million, an increase of 36% over the prior year quarter

 

·U.S. Heart Failure (HF) revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $14.3 million, an increase of 41% over the prior year quarter

 

·Total revenue for 2024 was $51.3 million, an increase of 31% over the prior year

 

·Active implanting centers for 2024 increased to 223, a 25% increase since December 31, 2023

 

"We capped off a very strong 2024 with a solid fourth quarter, which included 41% growth in U.S. heart failure revenue as well the successful achievement of multiple critical reimbursement milestones," said Kevin Hykes, President and CEO of CVRx. "As we look to 2025, we are focused on three key strategic priorities to drive Barostim toward becoming the standard of care – building a world-class sales organization, supporting the development of sustainable Barostim programs to drive deeper utilization, and addressing barriers to adoption. With the organization-wide success we saw in 2024, in combination with our key priorities for 2025, we are well-positioned to drive the continued adoption of Barostim therapy."

 

Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial and Operating Results

 

Revenue was $15.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $4.0 million, or 36%, over the three months ended December 31, 2023.

 

Revenue generated in the U.S. was $14.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $4.1 million, or 39%, over the three months ended December 31, 2023. HF revenue units in the U.S. totaled 457 and 330 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. HF revenue in the U.S. totaled $14.3 million and $10.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by continued growth as a result of the expansion into new sales territories and new accounts, as well as increased physician and patient awareness of Barostim.

 

 

 

 

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had a total of 223 active implanting centers, as compared to 208 as of September 30, 2024. Active implanting centers are customers that have completed at least one commercial HF implant in the last 12 months. The number of sales territories in the U.S. increased by three to a total of 48 during the three months ended December 31, 2024.

 

Revenue generated in Europe was $1.0 million for both the three months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Total revenue units in Europe decreased to 41 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 from 52 in the prior year period. As of December 31, 2024, we had five sales territories in Europe as compared to six sales territories as of September 30, 2024.

 

Gross profit was $12.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $3.2 million, or 33%, over the three months ended December 31, 2023. Gross margin decreased to 83% for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to 85% for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Gross margin for the three months December 31, 2024 was lower due to an increase in the cost per unit.

 

R&D expenses increased $0.6 million, or 25%, to $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023. This change was primarily driven by a $0.5 million increase in clinical study expenses, a $0.2 million increase in consulting expenses, and a $0.1 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in compensation expenses.

 

SG&A expenses increased $3.2 million, or 19%, to $20.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023. This change was driven by a $2.9 million increase in compensation expenses, mainly as a result of increased headcount, a $1.0 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and a $0.3 million increase in travel expenses, partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in advertising expenses.

 

Interest expense increased $0.9 million to $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by the interest expense on higher levels of borrowings under the term loan agreement with Innovatus Capital Partners.

 

Other income, net was $1.1 million for each of the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Other income, net consisted primarily of income on interest-bearing accounts.

 

Net loss was $10.7 million, or $0.43 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $9.2 million, or $0.44 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Net loss per share was based on 24.7 million weighted average shares outstanding for three months ended December 31, 2024 and 20.8 million weighted average shares outstanding for the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

 

 

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued 869,059 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $12.8 million under its at-the-market offering.

 

Full Year 2024 Financial and Operating Results

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had a total of 223 active implanting centers, as compared to 178 as of December 31, 2023.

Total revenue units in Europe decreased to 204 for the year ended December 31, 2024, from 207 for the prior year period. As of December 31, 2024, we had five sales territories in Europe as compared to six sales territories as of December 31, 2023.

 

Gross profit was $43.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $9.9 million, or 30%, over the year ended December 31, 2023. Gross margin was 84% for both the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

 

R&D expenses decreased $0.5 million, or 4%, to $11.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This change was primarily driven by a $0.5 million decrease in consulting expenses, a $0.3 million decrease in compensation expenses, and a $0.2 million decrease in travel expenses, partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in clinical study expenses.

 

SG&A expenses increased $26.8 million, or 42%, to $91.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This change was driven by a $12.7 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, an $11.0 million increase in compensation expenses, mainly as a result of increased headcount, a $1.3 million increase in travel expenses, a $0.6 million increase in bad debt expenses, and a $0.5 million increase in consulting expenses. Approximately $8.4 million of the increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense is related to the modification of stock options held by the former CEO in connection with his retirement in the first quarter of 2024.

 

 

 

 

Interest expense increased $2.6 million, to $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by the interest expense on higher levels of borrowings under the term loan agreement with Innovatus Capital Partners.

 

Other income, net was $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily driven by greater interest income on our interest-bearing accounts.

 

Net loss was $60.0 million, or $2.65 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $41.2 million, or $1.99 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2023. Net loss per share was based on 22.6 million weighted average shares outstanding for year ended December 31, 2024 and 20.8 million weighted average shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued 3,251,198 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $33.8 million under its at-the-market offering.

About CVRx, Inc.

 

CVRx is focused on the development and commercialization of the Barostim™ System, the first medical technology approved by FDA that uses neuromodulation to improve the symptoms of heart failure. Barostim is an implantable device that delivers electrical pulses to baroreceptors located in the wall of the carotid artery. Baroreceptors activate the body's baroreflex, which in turn triggers an autonomic response to the heart. The therapy is designed to restore balance to the autonomic nervous system and thereby reduce the symptoms of heart failure. Barostim received the FDA Breakthrough Device designation and is FDA-approved for use in heart failure patients in the U.S. It has also received the CE Mark for heart failure and resistant hypertension in the European Economic Area.
