ENDOLOGIX REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Powerlink System Sales Increase 82%;
10th Consecutive Quarter of Domestic Sales Growth
IRVINE, Calif. (July 26, 2007) – Endologix, Inc. (NASDAQ: ELGX), developer and manufacturer of the Powerlink® System endoluminal stent graft (ELG) for the minimally invasive treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.
“Product revenue for the first half of this year more than doubled compared with the first half of 2006, and we are tracking well against our 2007 product revenue guidance of $25 million to $29 million,” said Endologix President and Chief Executive Officer Paul McCormick. “We are very pleased with the productivity of our domestic sales force and continue to see significant growth opportunity in the U.S. market. We have recently promoted one member of our sales team and recruited two additional highly qualified professionals, increasing our regional sales managers to 10 in advance of our planned domestic sales force expansion to approximately 50 sales territories by 2007 year end.
“Based on our anticipated revenue growth, ability to control expenses and the anticipated impact of lower material costs, which is expected to reduce our cost of goods 15 to 18 percentage points beginning in 2008, we are affirming our belief that our resources are sufficient to support our expanded sales force and our current research and development activities and to see us through to cash-flow positive from operations in 2008,” he added.
Second Quarter Financial Results
Total product revenue in the second quarter of 2007 was $6.3 million, an increase of 82% from $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2006 and unchanged from $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2007. Domestic product revenue was $5.4 million, up 93% from $2.8 million in the 2006 second quarter and up 5% from $5.1 million in the 2007 first quarter. This marks the 10th consecutive quarter of growth in domestic product sales. International product revenue of $895,000 for the second quarter of 2007 was up 34% from $666,000 in the comparable quarter last year and compares with $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2007, which included a stocking order of approximately $300,000 from the company’s distributor in key European markets.
Gross profit of $3.7 million was 58% of total product revenue in the second quarter of 2007. This compares with gross profit of $1.7 million or 49% of total product revenue in the second quarter of

2006. The improvement in gross profit percentage was primarily the result of a $326,000 reserve recorded in the second quarter of 2006 related to the final phase of our voluntary catheter recall. There was no contribution to gross margin from the in-house production of ePTFE as inventories of the purchased material continue to be sold.
Total operating expenses were $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2007, compared with $6.3 million in the second quarter of 2006, and reflect a larger domestic salesforce that fueled a 93% increase in domestic sales between those periods. Marketing and sales expenses increased to $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2007 from $3.2 million in the comparable quarter last year. Research, development and clinical expenses were $1.5 million versus $1.8 million last year, and general and administrative expenses were $1.4 million versus $1.3 million last year. Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2007 included $541,000 of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, compared with $357,000 in the second quarter of 2006.
Endologix reported a net loss for the second quarter of 2007 of $3.7 million, or $0.09 per share, compared with a net loss of $4.4 million, or $0.11 per share, for the second quarter of 2006. The net loss for the second quarter of 2007 included $625,000, or $0.01 per share, for stock-based compensation expense. The prior-year quarter included $388,000, or $0.01 per share, for stock-based compensation expense.
Net cash used in the second quarter was $2.5 million.
Year-to-Date Financial Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2007 total product revenue was $12.5 million, compared with $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Gross profit of $7.4 million was 59% of total product revenue for the first half of 2007, compared with $3.3 million or 54% of total product revenue for the first half of 2006.
Total operating expenses for the first six months of 2007 were $16.0 million, versus $12.2 million in the comparable period in 2006. The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to a larger direct sales force and increased stock-based compensation expense.
Endologix reported a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $8.2 million or $0.19 per share, compared with a net loss of $8.5 million or $0.23 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The net loss for the first six months of 2007 included $1.1 million or $0.03 per share for stock-based compensation expense, whereas the net loss for the first six months of 2006 included $736,000, or $0.02 per share, for stock-based compensation expense.
Total cash and marketable securities as of June 30, 2007 were $12.8 million, compared with $20.2 million as of December 31, 2006.

About Endologix
Endologix, Inc. develops and manufactures minimally invasive treatments for vascular diseases. Endologix’s Powerlink System is an endoluminal stent graft (ELG) for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). AAA is a weakening of the wall of the aorta, the largest artery in the body, resulting in a balloon-like enlargement. Once AAA develops, it continues to enlarge and, if left untreated, becomes increasingly susceptible to rupture. The overall patient mortality rate for ruptured AAA is approximately 75%, making it the thirteenth leading cause of death in the U.S. Additional information can be found on Endologix’s Web site at www.endologix.com.
