Intersect ENT Reports Second Quarter 2017 Results

MENLO PARK, Calif.—August 1, 2017 — Intersect ENT, Inc. (NASDAQ:XENT), a company dedicated to improving the quality of life for patients with ear, nose and throat conditions, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights

 

    Second quarter 2017 revenue was $24.0 million, a 24% increase over the second quarter 2016

 

    Second quarter 2017 gross margin was 85% compared to 84% in the second quarter 2016

Second Quarter Business Highlights

 

    The company launched PROPEL® Contour following approval and initial commercialization at the end of the first quarter 2017. With the addition of Contour, the company’s PROPEL family of steroid releasing implants allows for treatment of patients undergoing ethmoid, frontal or maxillary surgeries, which represent the majority of procedures for the treatment of chronic sinusitis.

 

    In May 2017, the company announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted the New Drug Application (NDA) for SINUVATM, the company’s investigational steroid releasing implant, and set a PDUFA (Prescription Drug User Fee Act) target action date in January 2018.

Second Quarter Financial Results

Total revenue grew to $24.0 million for the second quarter of 2017, compared to $19.3 million for the same period of 2016, an increase of 24%. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to growth in adoption of our PROPEL® family of products and an increase in the average selling price.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2017 was $20.3 million, representing an 85% gross margin, compared to $16.2 million in the same period of the prior year, representing an 84% gross margin. The increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to an increase in the average selling price as well as to some costs associated with the sale of PROPEL Contour having been expensed in 2016 prior to FDA approval.

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were $22.9 million, compared to $22.4 million in the same period of the prior year, an increase of 2%. R&D expenses decreased to $4.2 million from $4.6 million due to lower clinical trial spending. SG&A expenses increased to $18.7 million from $17.8 million, primarily driven by increased headcount.


Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $100.0 million as of June 30, 2017.

Outlook

The company expects to achieve revenue in the third quarter 2017 of $21.0-$21.5 million. For the full year 2017, the company is raising the revenue outlook to $91-$93 million from the prior guidance of $89-$91 million. The company continues to expect full year 2017 gross margin of approximately 84% and operating expenses in the range of $96-$98 million.
