“Our business continues to be impacted by challenging conditions in the spine market as well as the limited physician reimbursement for our procedure,” said Ken Reali, President and CEO of TranS1. “Over the past quarter we have seen the publication of meaningful clinical data that supports the AxiaLIF procedure and are working with the payor community to gain additional favorable coverage decisions.”
Conference Call
TranS1 will host a conference call today at 5:30 pm ET to discuss its third quarter financial results. To listen to the conference call on your telephone, please dial (877) 881-2183 for domestic callers and (970) 315-0453 for international callers approximately ten minutes prior to the start time. The call will be concurrently webcast. To access the live audio broadcast or the archived recording, use the following link at http://ir.trans1.com/events.cfm.
Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Information to Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance, including net loss and loss per share, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP. Although “as adjusted” financial measures are non-GAAP financial measures, the Company believes that the presentation of “as adjusted” financial measures calculated to exclude “special items” are useful adjuncts to the GAAP “as reported” financial measures. “Special items” consist of inventory obsolescence reserves taken in 2011 and 2010 for existing products that are being replaced, or are obsolete and excess and management transition costs incurred in 2010, including severance, recruiting and other personnel-related expenses. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and the Company’s prospects for the future. We believe that providing a non-GAAP measure that adjusts for significant non-cash expenses, such as inventory obsolescence reserves, and significant non-recurring management transition expenses, allows comparison of our core operations from period to period. These non-GAAP measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. The non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
