REHOVOT, Israel, Aug. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CollPlant Biotechnologies (NASDAQ: CLGN), a regenerative and aesthetics medicine company developing innovative technologies and products based on its non-animal-derived collagen for tissue regeneration and medical aesthetics, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, and provided a corporate update.
"We made notable development progress this quarter advancing our regenerative breast implant program," commented Yehiel Tal, Chief Executive Officer of CollPlant Biotechnologies. "This month we launched a pre-clinical trial with 200cc commercial-sized breast implants printed with Stratasys' Origin® 3D printer. This is an important milestone for us since currently there are no other commercial products that allow regeneration of soft tissues such as the breast. The previous pre-clinical results we've seen have been encouraging, such as tissue regeneration and vascularization, and we are looking forward to reporting more results in the fourth quarter of 2024 and in the first quarter of 2025."
Mr. Tal continued, "We also released our first ESG and Sustainability report after establishing a corporate sustainability strategy with clear targets in key areas that we believe are crucial to our stakeholders. I would like to emphasize that our overall strategy is driven by our vision to lead in regenerative medicine and improve global health with our innovative collagen technology. This first report includes tangible steps we are taking towards enabling a sustainable future."

Use of Non-US GAAP ("non-GAAP")
Financial results for 2024 and 2023 are presented on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. GAAP results were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include all revenue and expenses recognized during the period. The release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures for operating costs and expenses, operating income (or loss), net income (or loss) and basic and diluted net income (or loss) per share that exclude the effects of non-cash expense for share-based compensation to employees, directors and consultants, and change in operating lease accounts. CollPlant's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance that enhances management's and investors' ability to evaluate the Company's operating costs, net income (or loss) and income (or loss) per share, and to compare them to historical Company results.
The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
