CVRx Reports Preliminary Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Results

MINNEAPOLIS, January 9, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CVRx, Inc. ("CVRx"), a commercial-stage medical device company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing innovative neuromodulation solutions for patients with cardiovascular diseases, today announced certain preliminary unaudited fourth quarter and full year 2022 revenue results, and provided a 2023 business outlook.

**Fourth Quarter 2022** 

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 is expected to be in the range of approximately $7.0 million to $7.1 million, representing an increase of approximately 91% to 94% over fourth quarter 2021 revenue of $3.66 million. Total revenue generated in the fourth quarter of 2022 is expected to be made up of approximately $5.9 million in U.S. heart failure revenue, $1.2 million in European revenue and $26,000 in U.S. legacy revenue.

**Full Year 2022**

Total revenue for full year 2022 is expected to be in the range of approximately $22.3 million to $22.4 million, representing an increase of approximately 71% to 72% over full year 2021 revenue of $13.04 million. Total revenue generated in 2022 is expected to be made up of approximately $17.5 million in U.S. heart failure revenue, $4.4 million in European revenue and $0.45 million in U.S. legacy revenue.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a total of 106 active implanting centers, as compared to 91 as of September 30, 2022. The number of sales territories in the U.S. increased by three to a total of 26 during the three months ended December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents were $106 million.

"2022 was an outstanding year for CVRx. We significantly increased the adoption and utilization of Barostim, evidenced by an approximate 108% year over year increase in our U.S. heart failure business," said Nadim Yared, President and Chief Executive Officer of CVRx. "The year was capped off by a strong fourth quarter, during which we continued to drive the expansion of U.S. active implanting centers, further demonstrating the value that Barostim is able to deliver to both clinicians and patients suffering from cardiovascular disease."

"As we look ahead to 2023, we are very excited about leveraging the tremendous momentum we have developed over the last two years to drive the accelerated proliferation of Barostim," continued Mr. Yared. "We are still in the very early stages of our commercial ramp as a company, and we are laser focused on the huge opportunity that exists to bring relief to as many patients suffering with cardiovascular illness as possible."

**Business Outlook**

For the full year of 2023, the Company expects:

· Total
revenue between $35.0 million and $38.0 million;

· Gross
margin between 78.0% and 79.0%;

· Operating
expenses between $76.0 million and $80.0 million

For the first quarter of 2023, the Company expects to report total revenue between $7.1 million and $7.5 million.

**Upcoming Investor Conference Presentation**

The Company will be participating in the 41<sup>st</sup> Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, including a company presentation on Wednesday, January 11, 2023 at 3:45 pm Pacific Time. A live audio webcast of the conference presentation will be available online <u>here</u>, and at the investor relations page of the Company's website at <u>ir.cvrx.com</u>.

**About CVRx, Inc.**

CVRx is focused on the development and commercialization of Barostim™, the first medical technology approved by FDA that uses neuromodulation to improve the symptoms of patients with heart failure. Barostim is an implantable device that delivers electrical pulses to baroreceptors located in the wall of the carotid artery. Baroreceptors activate the body's baroreflex, which in turn triggers an autonomic response to the heart. The therapy is designed to restore balance to the autonomic nervous system and thereby reduce the symptoms of heart failure. Barostim received the FDA Breakthrough Device designation and is FDA-approved for use in heart failure patients in the U.S. It has also received the CE Mark for heart failure and resistant hypertension in the European Economic Area.

**Forward-Looking Statements**

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our future financial performance (including, specifically, our 2023 expected operating and financial results), our anticipated growth strategies, anticipated trends in our industry, our business prospects and our opportunities. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "could," "outlook," "guidance," "intend," "target," "project," "contemplate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words.

The forward-looking statements in this press release are only predictions and are based largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including, but not limited to, our history of significant losses, which we expect to continue; our limited history operating as a commercial company and our dependence on a single product, Barostim; our ability to establish and maintain sales and marketing capabilities; our ability to demonstrate to physicians and patients the merits of our Barostim; any failure by third-party payors to provide adequate coverage and reimbursement for the use of Barostim; our competitors' success in developing and marketing products that are safer, more effective, less costly, easier to use or otherwise more attractive than Barostim; any failure to receive access to hospitals; our dependence upon third-party manufacturers and suppliers, and in some cases a limited number of suppliers; a pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease in the U.S. or worldwide, including the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19; any failure of clinical studies for future indications to produce results necessary to support regulatory clearance or approval in the U.S. or elsewhere; product liability claims; future lawsuits to protect or enforce our intellectual property, which could be expensive, time consuming and ultimately unsuccessful; any failure to retain our key executives or recruit and hire new employees; and other important factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those that are found in "Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.

**Preliminary Fourth Quarter/Full Year 2022 Results**

This press release includes estimated financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2022, which are preliminary, unaudited and represent the most recent current information available to Company management. The Company's actual results may differ from these estimated financial results, including due to the completion of its financial closing procedures and final adjustments. The Company expects to issue full financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2022 in late January.
