SALT LAKE CITY -- (Business Wire)
BSD Medical Corporation (NASDAQ: BSDM) (Company or BSD) (www.bsdmedical.com),
a leading provider of medical systems that treat cancer and benign
diseases using heat therapy, today reported financial results for its
first fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2010, including:
-
Cash and cash equivalents of $19.6 million
-
No debt
-
Total stockholders’ equity of $23.1 million
-
Total revenues of $507,000, a 19% increase over total revenues of
$426,000 for the first quarter of last fiscal year
-
Net loss of $947,000, a 51% improvement compared to a net loss of
$1,947,000 for the first quarter of last fiscal year
-
Net cash used in operating activities of $507,000, a 73% improvement
compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1,845,000 for
the first quarter of last fiscal year
As of January 6, 2011, the Company has a sales backlog of $2.1 million,
consisting of both hyperthermia and microwave ablation systems.
“The first quarter results reflect the positive impact of the expense
reduction measures we implemented to reduce the level of our operating
cash burn,” said Harold Wolcott, President of the Company. “We are also
pleased with the increase in orders for our hyperthermia systems,
compared to last year. With the completion of a $10.0 million equity
financing in November 2010, we have a strong balance sheet, no debt and
believe we are sufficiently capitalized to continue the rollout of our
MicroThermX Microwave Ablation System (MTX-180) and to support its
global distribution network.”
Other highlights of the quarter and more recent activities include the
following:
-
Success in the Company’s initial product launch for the MTX-180, which
was initially focused on the placement of a select number of systems
with pivotal, high-profile, interventional oncology, key opinion
leaders. The Company has successfully placed three of these systems
and will shortly place a fourth system.
-
Early clinical success and strong positive clinician response to our
MTX-180.
-
Progress in the process of establishing both domestic and
international distribution networks dedicated to selling the MTX-180,
pursuing the strategy of utilizing a network of specialty distribution
firms focused on selling products in the field of interventional
radiology, the target market for the Company’s ablation product line.
-
Receipt of $489,000, the maximum combined award provided by the US
government under the Qualifying Therapeutic Discovery Project Program,
for our innovative design and development programs for our BSD-2000
Hyperthermia System and our MTX-180 System.
-
Receipt of CE (Conformite Europeenne) Mark approval for the commercial
sale of MTX-180 in Europe, which allows the Company to market the
MTX-180 in the 30 countries that comprise the European Union (EU) and
the European Free Trade Association (EFTA). CE marking is also
recognized in many countries outside of the EU, providing the Company
the ability to market the MTX-180 to a number of international markets.
