PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Corindus Vascular Robotics, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable, without reasonable effort and expense, to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 within the prescribed time period because of the additional time that the Company requires to finalize its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The Company has been delayed in finalizing its Form 10-K because of a delay in receipt of certain third-party data associated with the Company’s external ERP hosting provider software and certain financing transactions which occurred on March 16, 2018. While the third-party data has been received and the financing transactions are complete, additional time is necessary to update and conform the disclosures in the Company’s Form 10-K and complete our internal control procedures related to these matters.
The Company currently expects that it will be able to conclude the remaining work necessary in time for the Company to file the Form 10-K within the fifteen calendar day extension provided by Rule 12b-25.

On March 14, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. A copy of the press release was included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2018.
Unaudited:
Revenue increased to $9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. This revenue increase was due primarily to the increase in CorPath Systems and capital upgrades installed during 2017.
Cost of revenue increased to $9.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. Cost of revenue for both the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 included the effect of under-utilization of our production facilities. For the year ended December 31, 2017, cost of revenue included the cost of multiple CorPath GRX System upgrades that were installed pursuant to pre-existing and new contractual arrangements, and the costs associated with 33 Systems installed or delivered during 2017, as well as our recording a lower of cost or net realizable value reserve of $268 thousand for our CorPath GRX Cassettes due to the higher material and production costs associated with the early stage of our production of these items.
Our gross margin increased to a gross profit of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from a gross loss of $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 based on the changes in revenue and cost of revenues as discussed above. For the year ended December 31, 2017, we have not generated enough sales volume of CorPath Systems and CorPath Cassettes to significantly offset our manufacturing costs, including the effect of the under-utilization of our production facility, a portion of which represents excess manufacturing capacity, and we have therefore generated minimal gross profit.
Research and development expenses decreased to $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to reduced purchases of prototype materials of $1.0 million and reduced spending for consulting services of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. These reductions were offset by increased compensation expense of $0.6 million primarily related to employees hired subsequent to December 31, 2016.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $24.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $19.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to increased compensation expense of $3.9 million primarily for sales-related employees hired subsequent to December 31, 2016, incremental stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million associated with stock options granted in 2016 and 2017, and increased travel-related expenses of $0.6 million.
Interest and other expense decreased to $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in interest and other expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to lower interest expense as a result of a reduction in our overall debt balance as a result of contractual principal payments made during the past year whereby the debt balance was fully repaid in 2017.
The Company's expectations regarding the timing of the filing of the Annual Report and significant changes from its statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016 are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and actual results and events may differ from those contemplated by these statements. These statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the Company's, or its independent auditors', inability to complete the work required to file its Annual Report in the time frame that is anticipated or unanticipated changes being required in its reported operating results.
