SINT SiNtx Technologies Inc

SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SINT) (“SINTX” or the “Company”), an advanced ceramics company that develops and commercializes materials, components, and technologies for medical and technical applications, announced today a positive update on its recent strategic initiatives and financial performance, showcasing the Company’s commitment to realigning its resources and achieving long-term growth.

In line with its ongoing evaluation of a change in strategic emphasis, SINTX continues to restructure its operations to focus on high-impact, sustainable markets in the medical device industry. This transition aims to leverage the unique properties of SINTX’s silicon nitride and other advanced materials, renowned for their durability, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial properties, to drive innovations in spinal fusion devices, orthopedic implants, and surgical tools. The Company is also actively pursuing partnerships and collaborations with healthcare institutions and industry leaders to bring novel solutions to the medical community.

Eric Olson, CEO of SINTX Technologies, commented, “We remain committed to maximizing shareholder value by channeling resources towards markets with substantial growth potential and focusing on product innovations that meet the unmet needs in healthcare.”

In the third quarter of 2024, the Company made difficult, but essential, decisions to align with its renewed focus. Notably, SINTX made the decision to cease operations of its armor division and recorded a one-time $4.5 million impairment charge. This move aligns with SINTX’s emphasis on reallocating resources towards the medical device market, where the Company sees the greatest potential for impactful, sustainable growth. Additionally, a reduction in workforce during Q3 positions the company for a leaner, more efficient structure, supporting ongoing cost optimization efforts.

SINTX also reported significant improvement in liquidity, closing the quarter with $4.8 million in cash, up from $3.3 million at year-end 2023, fueled by strategic offerings that raised $9.4 million year-to-date. These funds will help strengthen SINTX’s financial position as it continues to execute its transformation strategy.

During the third quarter of 2024, SINTX achieved growth in revenue, with an 18% total increase in the same quarter last year. This improvement reflects heightened demand for SINTX’s high-tech ceramics in biomedical and industrial applications.

Looking ahead, SINTX remains focused on further expanding its footprint in the medical device sector. The Company is currently exploring new collaborations with strategic advisory partners to evaluate potential merger candidates, acquisitions, strategic partners and sale of business divisions, which could support SINTX’s ambitions to become a leader in the medical device market.
