Stereotaxis Reports 2019 Third Quarter Financial Results
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NYSE: STXS), the global leader in innovative robotic technologies for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.
“The third quarter was highlighted by successful reengagement with the capital markets, meaningful progress in our commercial growth strategy, and continued innovation and industry collaboration,” said David Fischel, Chairman and CEO. “We are pleased with the methodical progress across all aspects of Stereotaxis.”
“In the quarter, we listed on the NYSE American exchange and closed a $25 million equity financing. These reflect increasing awareness and confidence in Stereotaxis’ significant clinical value and growth opportunity. Stereotaxis is in the strongest financial position in its history, and will use this strength to accelerate the development and commercial introduction of innovations in electrophysiology and beyond.”
“Our revenue growth and net income in the quarter is reflective of the positive impact a resurgence of robotic system sales can have on our financial performance. Stereotaxis continues to make tangible progress in the regulatory process, supply-chain optimization, and commercial discussions necessary for a broad launch of the Genesis RMN® System. As we plan towards 2020 and the broad commercialization of Genesis, we expect an exciting year of significant growth.”
“Development of Stereotaxis’ proprietary catheter continues to advance well in accordance with previously disclosed timelines. The multiple, recently announced collaborations to integrate advanced preoperative mapping information enhance the robotic ecosystem and will increasingly drive personalized patient-specific therapy in electrophysiology.”
