Aquarius Surgical Technologies Reports Increased Sales in the First Half of 2020

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 26, 2019 / Aquarius Surgical Technologies Inc. (CSE:ASTI) (“ASTI” or “the Company”), an exclusive provider of innovative, minimally invasive medical laser systems and consumables for multiple medical disciplines in the field of urology, today announced financial results for the six-month period ended September 30, 2019. The full report is available on www.SEDAR.com.

Financial Highlights for the First Half of 2020*:

  • Total sales of $518,225 as compared to $148,884

  • Gross margin of $242,260 as compared to $39,614

  • Inventories of $277,490, down from $803,852
  • Net loss of $718,606 as compared to a net loss of $682,098

* All amounts expressed are in Canadian dollars. All comparisons are relative to the six-month period ended September 30, 2018.

Gordon Willox, Founder & President of ASTI, said: “We are certainly happy to see such a significant ramp-up in sales compared to last year, but the work doesn’t stop here. Now that our technology has been successfully tested by numerous well-regarded surgeons and institutions, we see a huge demand for our products and our main priority now is to be able to satisfy this demand. ASTI’s existing sales teams in the US are showing increased activity, and the private placement we are working on at the moment will help us set up more teams, which would ultimately result in increased revenue for the Company.”

ASTI is in the process of raising up to $3 million via a Private Placement offering, the net proceeds of which would go towards adding more sales teams to further grow the Company’s market presence. The Company has also recently partnered with Dext Capital, a $10B capital-backed American independent lessor. The partnership expects to significantly increase the probability for medical organizations to acquire ASTI’s unique technology solutions.
