Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results

Revenue was $16.3 million in the second quarter 2019, a 19% increase from $13.7 million in the corresponding prior year period. U.S. revenue for the second quarter 2019 was $15.0 million, an increase of 24% from the corresponding prior year period primarily driven by growth of domestic case volumes. Our international revenue was $1.3 million in the second quarter 2019.

Gross margin was 90% for the second quarter 2019, as compared to 91% in the corresponding prior year period. The change in gross margin was due to an increase in personnel in operations to support the growth of the business.

Operating expenses were $22.9 million in the second quarter 2019, as compared to $14.2 million in the corresponding prior year period, an increase of 61%. The increase in operating expense was primarily driven by increased sales hiring, surgeon training, and marketing activity.

About SI-BONE, Inc.

SI‐BONE is a medical device company that pioneered the iFuse Implant System, a minimally invasive surgical system for fusion of the sacroiliac joint to treat sacroiliac joint dysfunction. The SI joint is the last major joint with a clinically proven surgical treatment. The iFuse Implant, commercially available since 2009, is the only SI joint fusion device supported by multiple prospective clinical studies showing improved pain, patient function and quality of life resulting from treatment. There are over 70 peer‐reviewed publications supporting the safety, durable effectiveness, and biomechanical and economic benefits unique to iFuse (www.si-bone.com/results). This body of evidence has enabled multiple government and private insurance payors to establish coverage of minimally invasive SI joint fusion exclusively when performed with the iFuse Implant System.

The iFuse Implant System is intended for sacroiliac fusion for conditions including sacroiliac joint dysfunction that is a direct result of sacroiliac joint disruption and degenerative sacroiliitis. This includes conditions whose symptoms began during pregnancy or in the peripartum period and have persisted postpartum for more than 6 months. The iFuse Implant System is also intended for sacroiliac fusion to augment immobilization and stabilization of the sacroiliac joint in skeletally mature patients undergoing sacropelvic fixation as part of a lumbar or thoracolumbar fusion. There are potential risks associated with the iFuse Implant System. It may not be appropriate for all patients and all patients may not benefit.
