ENGLEWOOD, CO / ACCESSWIRE / August 13, 2020 / Viveve Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:VIVE), a medical technology company focused on women’s intimate health, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, and will provide a corporate update on its scheduled conference call at 5:00 PM ET today.

During the second quarter of 2020 Viveve experienced the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on business operations, particularly in the United States. Significant organizational reductions and operational efficiencies, designed to reduce cash burn, were initiated by the Company late in the first quarter of 2020 and were in effect throughout the second quarter and have continued into the third quarter.

Q2 2020 and Recent Business Highlights

• Reported $704 thousand in total revenue for the second quarter 2020 with a global installed base of 855 Viveve® Systems as of June 30, 2020;
• Received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of the Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) to conduct the pivotal PURSUIT clinical trial for improvement of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women;
• Continued to advance the fully enrolled 3-arm SUI feasibility study;
• Announced regulatory approval in Thailand of the Viveve 2.0 next-generation system and consumable treatment tips, expanding its commercial availability throughout the Asia Pacific region; and
• Executed significant organizational realignments and operational measures to reduce costs, and secured additional capital to strengthen the balance sheet to support sustainability during the continuing COVID-19 crisis.

“The COVID-19 crisis continues to present challenges to our commercial operations, but the environment is improving. With a focus on our existing customers, our talented and dedicated team has enabled the Company to meet these challenges head-on. During this time, we achieved significant regulatory milestones including FDA clearance to conduct the PURSUIT trial and advancement of our SUI feasibility study targeted for readout in the coming weeks. We are continuing to provide excellent customer service and support even as many members of our team work remotely. As we plan for the months ahead, the health, safety and well-being of our employees, customers and associates will remain our priority,” said Scott Durbin, Viveve’s chief executive officer. “I am proud of the entire Viveve organization and confident that we will continue to make rapid progress in our efforts to advance our Cryogen-cooled Monopolar Radiofrequency (CMRF) technology in pursuit of a SUI indication in the U.S.”

Q2 2020 Financial Results

Revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 totaled $704 thousand from the global placement of six Viveve Systems and global sales of approximately 1,600 disposable treatment tips, compared to revenue of $1.1 million for the same period in 2019. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an installed base of 855 Viveve Systems worldwide, 481 in the U.S. and 374 internationally.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2020 were $4.6 million, down from $8.4 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease is a result of the Company’s organizational realignments, commercial team reduction, and additional cost-saving efforts executed in response to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders (including a one-time, noncash charge for the modification of Series A and B warrants of $1.8 million) for the second quarter of 2020 was $8.1 million, or ($0.57) per share, compared to a net loss of $9.7 million, or ($20.93) per share, for the same period in 2019.

Cash and cash equivalents were $8.5 million as of June 30, 2020, compared to $9.0 million as of March 31, 2020.

About Viveve

Viveve Medical, Inc. is a medical technology company focused on women’s intimate health. Viveve is committed to advancing new solutions to improve women’s overall well-being and quality of life. The internationally patented Viveve® System incorporates Cryogen-cooled Monopolar Radiofrequency (CMRF) technology to uniformly deliver volumetric heating while gently cooling surface tissue to generate neocollagenesis in a single in-office session. In the United States, the Viveve System is cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in general surgical procedures for electrocoagulation and hemostasis. International regulatory approvals and clearances have been received for vaginal laxity and/or improvement in sexual function indications in more than 50 countries.

Viveve continues to advance its clinical development program in SUI and is conducting a short-term feasibility study under an Investigational Testing Application approved by the Canadian Ministry of Health. The feasibility study is a single-blind, three-arm study to compare Viveve’s CMRF treatment and a cryogen-only sham to an inert sham treatment in order to capture short-term safety and effectiveness data on use of the Viveve System for the improvement of SUI in women. Subject enrollment in the study was completed in March 2020. Results of the SUI feasibility study are targeted for readout in late summer of 2020. If positive, the feasibility study results could support the initiation of the pivotal PURSUIT Trial. As announced on July 7, 2020, Viveve received FDA approval of its Investigational Device Exemption application to conduct the multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, sham-controlled PURSUIT Trial for improvement of SUI in women.
