Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants, both in the U.S. and

“We are pleased with 2018 which was a milestone year for Senseonics
highlighted by FDA approval of the Eversense system, the build out of
our commercial organization, and continued penetration in Europe” said
Tim Goodnow, President and Chief Executive Officer of Senseonics. “We
continue to learn and adapt from the launch of this highly innovative
product and expect real-world experience to drive patient and clinician
demand for Eversense. With additional coverage policy wins and raising
awareness of the benefits of a long-term implantable CGM, we are
confident we have the strategy and team in place to accelerate adoption
and help more patients manage their diabetes.”
FOURTH QUARTER 2018 RESULTS:
Revenue was $7.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to
$2.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2017.
Fourth quarter 2018 sales and marketing expenses increased $7.9 million
year-over year, to $10.3 million. The increase in sales and marketing
expenses was primarily driven by an increase in compensation expenses
associated with new hires supporting the commercial launch of Eversense
in the U.S. and to support and expand the distribution of Eversense®
XL in Europe.
Fourth quarter 2018 research and development expenses decreased $0.3
million year-over-year, to $8.1 million. The decrease in research and
development expenses was primarily driven by the completion of all
activities associated with the U.S. PMA approval, including preparation
for the FDA panel held in the first quarter of 2018.
Fourth quarter 2018 general and administrative expenses increased $1.5
million, year-over-year, to $5.3 million. The increase in general and
administrative expenses was primarily driven by an increase in
compensation, legal and other administrative expenses associated with
supporting operational growth.
Net loss was $7.3 million, or $0.04 per share, in the fourth quarter of
2018, compared to $16.3 million, or $0.12 per share, in the fourth
quarter of 2017. Fourth quarter 2018 net loss per share was based on
176.9 million weighted average shares outstanding, compared to 136.8
million weighted average shares outstanding in the fourth quarter of
2017.
FULL YEAR 2018 RESULTS:
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $18.9 million, compared
to $6.4 million in 2017.
Sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018
increased $20.8 million year-over year, to $27.7 million, compared to
$6.9 million for 2017. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was
primarily related to investments in additional headcount to support the
U.S. commercial launch of Eversense and support of the expanding
commercial efforts for Eversense XL in Europe.
Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018
increased $1.2 million year-over-year, to $31.9 million, compared to
$30.7 million for 2017. The increase in research and development
expenses was primarily driven by product development expenses for future
versions of Eversense and clinical trial costs related to the PMA
approval of Eversense in the U.S.
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018
increased $4.5 million, year-over-year, to $19.8 million, compared to
$15.3 million for 2017. The increase in general and administrative
expenses was driven primarily by an increase in personnel-related
expenses, increased facility expenses and increased legal and audit
expenses.
Net loss was $94.0 million, or $0.60 per share, for the year ended
December 31, 2018, compared to $59.1 million, or $0.51 per share, for
2017. Net loss per share for 2018 was based on 157.4 million weighted
average shares outstanding, compared to 116.0 million weighted average
shares outstanding for 2017.
As of December 31, 2018, cash and cash equivalents were $136.8 million
and outstanding indebtedness was $67.7 million.
2019 Financial Outlook
Management updates its projected revenue for full year 2019 to be in the
range of $25 to $30 million.
