LITTLETON, Colo., March 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vivos Therapeutics, Inc. (“Vivos” or the “Company’’) (NASDAQ: VVOS), a leading medical device and technology company specializing in the development and commercialization of highly effective proprietary treatments for sleep related breathing disorders (including all severities of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA in adults)), today reported financial results and operating highlights for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Financial and Operating Summary
Kirk Huntsman, Vivos’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “In 2023, we took a number of steps to expand our portfolio of proprietary products, open up new revenue streams, lower our cost structure and strengthen our liquidity position. We also worked tirelessly to expand our FDA approvals to put ourselves in a better position for long-term revenue growth. We have made substantial progress and are now starting to see the benefits of our actions. In 2023, our operating expenses declined by 27% annually. That is no small feat and it speaks to the tremendous efforts of our entire team. Also, these are not one-time cost reductions. Our results represent ongoing cost efficiencies we have achieved throughout our entire organization. Based on our progress to date and our revenue growth efforts for 2024, we continue to anticipate becoming cash flow positive from operations by the end of this year.”
“We also took actions to strengthen our capital structure and improve our liquidity. Last year, we effected a 1-for-25 reverse stock split to come back into compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid requirement. More recently, we completed a $4 million private placement in November and in February we completed a warrant exercise transaction that generated about $4 million in gross proceeds. While we expect to look to raise additional capital in 2024, we believe these actions will go a long way toward providing us with the necessary capital resources to enact our near and longer-term growth plans.
“In addition, throughout 2023 we established a number of key relationships to expand our product line and extend our international presence into the Middle East/North Africa (MENA) region. We have also begun to actively cultivate relationships and collaborations with medical doctors to assist in treating their OSA patients by local Vivos-trained dentists. We expect that over time, these relationships will drive higher patient referrals and create long-term revenue opportunities for us.
“Perhaps most important, in November, we received FDA 510(k) clearance for our CARE oral medical devices to treat severe OSA. Since then, we’ve received high levels of inquiries related to our Vivos CARE products that treat OSA in adults. As a result, signed VIP enrollment contracts in the fourth quarter increased 38% sequentially. We are thrilled by this recent business momentum and expect these higher inquiries and expanded sales pipeline could create opportunities for revenue growth in 2024.
“As we move through the new year, macroeconomic trends exiting 2023 and in early 2024 give us optimism that the larger environment is improving. At the same time, we are seeing increased interest from dentists and medical professionals related to our growing portfolio of products, driven by our new FDA clearance for severe OSA. The FDA clearance to treat severe OSA has provided the credibility we have needed for medical doctors to recommend Vivos oral medical devices to their patients. Given all this, the key relationships we’ve established, our success in managing costs and reducing our cash burn, our increased liquidity and enhanced capital structure, we are extremely excited about our prospects for this year. We believe we have all the necessary tools in place to implement our growth plans, drive increased revenues and achieve cash flow positive operations and profitability in the foreseeable future, and we remain committed to doing so,” Mr. Huntsman concluded.
