Encision Reports First Quarter Fiscal Year 2017 Results
BOULDER, Colo., Aug. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Encision Inc. (ECIA), a medical device company owning patented surgical technology that prevents dangerous stray electrosurgical burns in minimally invasive surgery, today announced financial results for its fiscal 2017 first quarter that ended June 30, 2016.
The Company posted quarterly net revenue of $2.277 million for a quarterly net loss of $99 thousand, or $(0.01) per share. These results compare to net revenue of $2.454 million for a net loss of $213 thousand, or $(0.02) per share, in the year-ago quarter. Gross margin on net revenue was 52 percent in the fiscal 2017 first quarter and 48 percent in the fiscal 2016 first quarter. Gross margin on net revenue was higher in the fiscal 2017 first quarter principally as a result of lower scrap costs and lower costs in manufacturing operations.
"We continue to drive internal efficiencies and performance as we release new products to increase the adoption of life saving AEM® Technology," said Gregory Trudel, President and CEO. "Our focus is clearly on top line growth and we have increased our channel investment to deliver sales increases. Encision's recent release of AEM EndoShield® 2 will increase the cost effectiveness of Active Electrode Monitoring safety and open the doors for new account expansion and bolster the top and bottom line. Our expansion into Europe is starting to gain traction and we are looking forward to an increased contribution from our international partners."
Encision Inc. designs and markets a portfolio of high performance surgical instrumentation that delivers advances in patient safety with AEM technology, surgical performance, and value to hospitals across a broad range of minimally invasive surgical procedures. Based in Boulder, CO, the company pioneered the development and deployment of Active Electrode Monitoring, AEM technology, to eliminate dangerous stray energy burns during minimally invasive procedures.
In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes that statements in this press release and elsewhere that look forward in time, which include everything other than historical information, involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially include, among others, its ability to develop new or enhanced products and have such products accepted in the market, its ability to increase net sales through the Company's distribution channels, its ability to compete successfully against other manufacturers of surgical instruments, insufficient quantity of new account conversions, insufficient cash to fund operations, delay in developing new products and receiving FDA approval for such new products and other factors discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Readers are encouraged to review the risk factors and other disclosures appearing in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2016 and subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not undertake any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of the receipt of new information, future events, or otherwise.
