Viveve® Announces Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights
SUNNYVALE, California – January 7, 2016 -- Viveve Medical, Inc. ("Viveve") (OTCQB: VIVMF), a company focused on women's health, today announced top-line financial results for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2015. The company began its global commercialization effort in the second half of 2015.
Financial Result Highlights
For the quarterly period ended December 31, 2015, total revenue from the sale of 21 Viveve Systems and 216 treatment tips is expected to be approximately $750,000 - nearly a 30% increase over total revenue for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2015.
“We now have a total commercial installed base of 42 Viveve Systems, 33 of which were sold during the last two quarters of 2015. We anticipate an increase in this installed base as we continue to achieve regulatory clearances in additional countries,” said Scott Durbin, Chief Financial Officer of Viveve.
“We believe that our safe, non-invasive and clinically proven treatment for vaginal laxity addresses a large clinical need, as evidenced by the continued growth in the demand for procedures. We believe that the distribution network we have established, with experienced distributors around the world, has begun to establish Viveve as a premier global brand focused on women’s health,” said Patricia Scheller, Chief Executive Officer of Viveve.
Viveve cautions that its anticipated revenue results are preliminary based on the most current information available and are subject to completion of the consolidated financial statements for the fourth quarter of 2015. The company anticipates reporting its fourth quarter and annual 2015 financial results in March 2016.

About Viveve
Viveve, Inc., the operating subsidiary of Viveve Medical, Inc., is a women's health company passionately committed to advancing new solutions to improve women's overall well-being and quality of life. The company's lead product, the patented Viveve System, is a non-surgical, non-ablative medical device that remodels collagen and restores tissue. The Viveve System treats the condition of vaginal laxity, which is the result of the over-stretching of tissue during childbirth that can result in a decrease in physical sensation and sexual satisfaction. Physician surveys indicate that vaginal laxity is the number one post-delivery physical change for women, being more prevalent than weight gain, urinary incontinence or stretch marks. The Viveve Treatment uses patented, reverse-thermal gradient radiofrequency technology to tighten vaginal tissue in a single 30-minute out-patient treatment in a physician's office. The Viveve System has received regulatory approval in various countries around the world and is available through physician import license in Japan. It is currently not available for sale in the U.S. For more information, please visit Viveve's website at www.viveve.com.
