Cytori Grows Product Revenues 41% Year-Over-Year, Advances Cardiac Device Product Pipeline

SAN DIEGO--Cytori Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CYTX) grew product sales 41% and made substantial progress in advancing its cardiovascular device product pipeline during 2010. An overview of the Company’s 2010 financial results is below and a review of its business plans for 2011 is provided in the ‘2010 Results Shareholder Letter,' which may be accessed at http://ir.cytoritx.com.

Key highlights for 2010 and through the beginning of 2011 include the following:

·  
Grew product revenues 41% year-over-year. Revenue generating units increased by 48 to a cumulative total of 149 and nearly 1,400 consumables were shipped during 2010;
 
·  
Reported improved heart function in two cardiovascular disease clinical trials and initiated our European pivotal heart attack trial. Cytori is seeking EU approval for use in no-option chronic myocardial ischemia patients;
 
·  
Achieved European approval of the Celution System in breast reconstruction, reported 12 month data from our RESTORE-2 trial and successfully launched PureGraft™ into the U.S. and European plastic and reconstructive surgery markets;
 
·  
Made progress towards getting into the U.S. market with multiple submissions underway for FDA approval or clearance of Celution® as part of a comprehensive U.S. regulatory strategy intended to achieve market entry; and
 
·  
Strengthened our cash and cash equivalents balance with $52.7 million at the end of 2010 compared with $12.9 million at the end of 2009. Part of this increase resulted from a $10 million equity investment from Astellas Pharma, including certain negotiating rights to a potential liver disease partnership.
 
Product revenues were $8.3 million for 2010, compared to $5.8 million for 2009, which includes $2.4 million in fourth quarter 2010 product sales. Gross profit improved to $4.3 million for 2010 compared to $2.4 million in 2009, including $1.2 million in gross profit in the fourth quarter 2010. Product revenue growth is attributable mostly to increased sales of systems to private pay plastic surgery clinics, academic centers performing independent investigator-initiated studies and the sale of two StemSource® Cell Banks.  Toward the end of the year, Cytori also started to see increased impact from PureGraft™ sales for body contouring procedures.

Cytori ended the year with 149 revenue generating units compared to 101 at the start of year, with 1,392 consumables shipped in 2010 compared to 1,205 shipped in 2009. This includes a record 437 consumables shipped during the fourth quarter of 2010, of which 350 were re-orders. The percentage of re-orders increased in 2010 to 77% compared to 64% for 2009, a positive trend reflecting the recurring revenue opportunity once a system is installed. Separately, 1,847 PureGraft consumables were shipped in 2010, a sign that Cytori is penetrating the growing fat grafting market in the United States and abroad.

Net cash used in operations was $23.6 million in 2010 compared to $23.8 million in 2009, including $4.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. During the year, there was a decrease in research and development expenses related to clinical trial costs, offset with, among other items, an increase in SG&A, as we expanded our sales efforts worldwide.

Outlook

“Our key initiatives for 2011 will be to drive enrollment in the ADVANCE heart attack trial, seek approval for no option chronic myocardial ischemia patients in Europe, execute our U.S. regulatory and development strategy, and grow the commercial business,” said Christopher J. Calhoun, chief executive officer of Cytori. “The pieces are coming together for accelerating revenue growth, with expanded indications, longer-term data, and pursuit of country level payment in key geographies. We anticipate the impact from recent RESTORE-2 data to have a greater effect on revenue growth toward the latter half of the year.”
