BIOFORM ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007, FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 2008
San Mateo, CA - December 13, 2007. BioForm Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: BFRM) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, which is the Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2008. Net sales were $15.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $7.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, an increase of $7.4 million or 95.1%. The net loss was $3.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $2.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
“We are pleased that physicians are rapidly adopting Radiesse® in their practices,” stated Steve Basta, Chief Executive Officer of BioForm Medical. “The growth of Radiesse revenue over the last year reflects the continued growth in aesthetics use of Radiesse following the facial aesthetics approval in December 2006. The growth in sales versus the prior-year quarter also demonstrates the benefit of our late 2006 sales force expansion. Our recent initial public offering in November 2007 provides us with substantial resources to continue our efforts to maximize the potential of Radiesse and our future products in development, including the leading sclerotherapy product in Europe for which we have U.S. rights, and a leading surgical adhesive.”
Operating Results:
Domestic sales were $12.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 compared to $6.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, an increase of $5.8 million or 85.2%. International sales were $2.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, compared to $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, an increase of $1.6 million or 164.5%. The Company attributes the sales increase primarily to the growing appreciation by doctors of the benefits provided by Radiesse dermal filler, clinical training programs, the hiring of additional direct sales personnel and improvements in our distributor network.
Gross profit was $12.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $6.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, an increase of $6.2 million, or 99.1%. As a percentage of sales, gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was 81.6% as compared to 80.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The increase was due to lower product overhead and royalty expenses per unit as volumes have grown.
Operating expenses were $16.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 compared to $8.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to an increase in sales and marketing costs as a result of the continued expansion of our sales forces in the United States and Europe, and higher employee related expenses in research and development and general and administration.
Net loss per share applicable to common stockholders increased to $0.82 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $0.68 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 due to the higher net loss incurred.
