SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 05, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iRhythm Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:IRTC), a leading digital health care solutions company focused on the advancement of cardiac care, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Recent Highlights
- Achieved record revenue of $16.8 million in the third quarter of 2016, an increase of 80% over the same period of the prior year
- Completed initial public offering, receiving net proceeds of approximately $111 million
- Study results presented at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions suggest that extended continuous cardiac monitoring using its Zio® Service is more useful for arrhythmia detection than Holter monitoring in patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD).
"I am encouraged by the strong adoption we are experiencing for our Zio Service. To date, we have provided our service to more than 500,000 patients and received broad U.S. payor coverage estimated to be over 290 million patients,” said Kevin King, Chief Executive Officer. “I believe that our recent successful IPO will enable us to continue to expand our highly differentiated method of long term continuous cardiac monitoring, which improves arrhythmia detection and diagnosis by prescribing physicians and offers the potential to change clinical management of patients.”
Third Quarter Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2016 increased 80% to $16.8 million, from $9.3 million during the same period of the prior year. The increase in revenue was due primarily to increased volume of the Zio Service.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2016 was $11.5 million, or 69% gross margin, up from $5.6 million, or 60% gross margin, in the same period of the prior year.
Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2016 were $14.2 million, an increase of 28% compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase in operating expenses was driven primarily by selling, general and administrative expenses used to expand the company’s sales force and support the growth in operations.
Loss from operations for the third quarter of 2016 was $2.7 million, compared to $5.5 million for the same period of the prior year.
Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments were $5.8 million as of September 30, 2016. In October 2016, iRhythm completed an initial public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $111 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.
Guidance for Full Year 2016
iRhythm projects revenue for full year 2016 to be in the range of $62.4 million to $62.9 million.
