Profound Medical Corp. (NASDAQ:PROF; TSX:PRN) (“Profound” or the “Company”), the only company to provide customizable, incision-free therapies which combine real-time Magnetic Resonance Imaging (“MRI”), thermal ultrasound and closed-loop temperature feedback control for the radiation-free ablation of diseased tissue, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, and provided an update on its operations.

Recent Corporate Highlights

  • On April 3, 2020, Profound launched a TULSA procedure website, www.tulsaprocedure.com, as a resource for patients with prostate disease.
  • On July 21, 2020, Profound closed an underwritten offering of common shares (the “July 2020 Offering”), including the full exercise of the over-allotment option, for gross proceeds of approximately US$46 million.

“We are very encouraged by the continuing strong interest shown in TULSA-PRO® by both surgeons and patients across the United States,” said Arun Menawat, Profound’s CEO. “That culminated in us completing the first installation of TULSA-PRO® at a teaching hospital – the world-renowned Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL – in early July. Moving forward, as we continue to execute on our U.S. TULSA-PRO® commercialization strategy, building additional awareness of this technology will be key to our success. To that end, we are looking forward to launching a new patient forum in the Fall, through which patients will be able to share their experiences with the TULSA procedure, as well as rolling out both surgeon-to-surgeon and patient-to-patient education programs.”

Summary Second Quarter 2020 Results

All amounts, unless specified otherwise, are expressed in Canadian dollars and are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded revenue of $1,421,223, with $1,131,801 from the sale of product, $97,868 from pay for procedure and $191,554 from installation and training services. Second quarter 2020 revenue increased approximately 148% from $574,109 in the same three-month period a year ago.

The Company recorded a net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2020 of $7,347,529, or $0.46 per common share, compared to a net loss of $5,844,134, or $0.54 per common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in net loss was primarily attributed to increases in general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses, selling and distribution expenses, and net financing costs by $688,764, $220,619, $1,469,688, respectively. This was offset by a decrease in research and development (“R&D”) expense of $802,488 and an increase in gross profits of $245,788.

Expenditures for R&D for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $2,383,867, compared to $3,186,355 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Clinical trial costs, materials, travel, salaries and benefits, and software expenses decreased by $330,260, $517,520, $77,408, $167,227, and $26,646, respectively. These decreases were due to decreased spending on materials and R&D projects due to the impact of COVID-19, as hospitals and testing facilities were not accessible, lower travel due to COVID-19 restrictions, decreased R&D personnel, the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS) and lower software and hardware costs. Offsetting these amounts were increases in consulting fees and share based compensation of $181,807, and $153,453, respectively, due to increased spending for reimbursement, market research and options awarded to employees.

G&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $688,764 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. Consulting fees, share based compensation, insurance and software expenses increased by $59,737, $242,009, $397,181, and $177,670, respectively, due to increased costs associated with being Nasdaq listed, options awarded to employees, increased insurance costs associated with being Nasdaq listed and increased software costs for cybersecurity. Offsetting these amounts were decreases to salaries and benefits of $97,607 and travel of $59,146 which were due to lower personnel costs, CEWS and COVID-19 travel restrictions. Depreciation expenses decreased by $23,173 due to certain assets being fully depreciated.

Liquidity and Outstanding Share Capital

As at June 30, 2020, the Company had cash of $55,964,086. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company completed the July 2020 Offering, resulting it in having approximate cash of $112 million at July 31, 2020.

About Profound Medical Corp.

Profound is a commercial-stage medical device company that develops and markets customizable, incision-free therapies for the ablation of diseased tissue.

Profound is commercializing TULSA-PRO®, a technology that combines real-time MRI, robotically-driven transurethral ultrasound and closed-loop temperature feedback control. TULSA-PRO® is designed to provide customizable and predictable radiation-free ablation of a surgeon-defined prostate volume while actively protecting the urethra and rectum to help preserve the patient’s natural functional abilities. TULSA-PRO® has the potential to be a flexible technology in customizable prostate ablation, including intermediate stage cancer, localized radio-recurrent cancer, retention and hematuria palliation in locally advanced prostate cancer, and the transition zone in large volume benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). TULSA-PRO® is CE marked, Health Canada approved, and 510(k) cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Profound is also commercializing Sonalleve®, an innovative therapeutic platform that is CE marked for the treatment of uterine fibroids and palliative pain treatment of bone metastases. Sonalleve® has also been approved by the China National Medical Products Administration for the non-invasive treatment of uterine fibroids. The Company is in the early stages of exploring additional potential treatment markets for Sonalleve® where the technology has been shown to have clinical application, such as non-invasive ablation of abdominal cancers and hyperthermia for cancer therapy.
