Doug Sherk, Jennifer Beugelmans 415/896-6820 Anne Bugge 206/926-5220 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ATS MEDICAL REPORTS 78 PERCENT SECOND QUARTER REVENUE GROWTH o US SALES UP 134% o INTERNATIONAL SALES UP 60% o COMPANY ENTERS INTO NEW $8.5 MILLION CREDIT FACILITY o CONFERENCE CALL SCHEDULED FOR TODAY AT 5 PM EDT MINNEAPOLIS, July 28, 2004 -- ATS Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATSI) developer and manufacturer of the ATS Open Pivot(R) mechanical heart valve and related cardiac surgical accessories and technologies today reported that revenue for the second quarter of 2004 increased 78 percent to a record $7.5 million, as compared with sales of $4.2 million for the second quarter of 2003. When compared to the first quarter of 2004, revenue increased 13 percent. Net loss for the second quarter of 2004 was $3.4 million compared with $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2003 For the first six months of 2004, revenue increased 74 percent to $14.2 million, as compared to $8.2 million for 2003. Net loss for the first six months of 2004 was $6.7 million compared with $4.6 million for 2003. Michael D. Dale, President and CEO of ATS Medical commented, "The second quarter of 2004 represents our eighth consecutive quarter of sequential sales growth and reflects the successful execution of our strategy to build market share both domestically and in international markets. Sales in the United States grew 134 percent over the second quarter of 2003 to $2.5 million. In international markets, we grew sales 60 percent over the second quarter of 2003 to $5.0 million. Worldwide we now estimate our share of the mechanical heart valve market has increased to be more than 12%". 5 Mr. Dale continued, "Our recent successful equity placement positions us to step up our growth strategy on several important fronts. The $12.4 million net proceeds from the offering will allow us to complete the ramp-up our manufacturing facility to full capacity, accelerate commercialization of ErySave's PARSUS blood separation technology for cardiac surgery procedures, and finally, provide the capacity to pursue other prudent new business development opportunities." To further bolster ATS Medical's working capital position, the Company also announced today an agreement with Silicon Valley Bank to establish a secured revolving credit facility for $8.5 million. Under the terms of the agreement, ATS Medical will receive a $2.5 million three year term loan as well as a two year $6 million line of credit. "We expect the proceeds from the recent private placement will enable us to achieve profitability. However, the implementation of this credit facility reflects Silicon Valley Bank's confidence in the future of ATS Medical and provides us with greater flexibility to fund future growth without further dilution to our shareholders," said Jack Judd, chief financial officer. "Looking ahead to the remainder of 2004," added Mr. Dale, "we expect total sales for the year to exceed $28 million, a growth rate of more than 50 percent from 2003. Finally, we have begun in earnest the ramp up our manufacturing facility to produce self manufactured pyrolytic carbon components, which will provide a decisive and significant reduction in our total manufacturing costs per valve. We expect to start realizing these cost savings during 2006. With continued sales growth and lower cost of sales in the future, we expect to reach profitability during 2006," concluded Mr. Dale.
