“We had a very strong quarter of cash generation despite the regulatory-driven, year-over-year revenue decline from our PAD product,” said Doug Murphy-Chutorian, MD, chief executive officer of Semler Scientific. “We expect that our revenues will re-accelerate if we are successful in our effort to obtain a new 510(k) clearance from the FDA that would allow us to market our heart dysfunction product.”
