ENTELLUS MEDICAL ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2015 FINANCIAL RESULTS

AND ISSUES 2016 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

PLYMOUTH, MN. (February 24, 2016) – Entellus Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENTL), a medical technology company focused on delivering superior patient and physician experiences through products designed for the minimally invasive treatment of chronic and recurrent sinusitis patients, today reported its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.

Recent Highlights and Accomplishments

 

    Achieved net revenue of $61.6 million in 2015, an increase of 26% year-over-year

 

    Revenue per full quota carrying sales rep reached $775,000 on an annualized basis in the fourth quarter, reflecting strong sales in the US

 

    Received 510(k) clearance for use of the XprESS Multi-Sinus Dilation System in pediatric patients, expanding the treatable patient population by an estimated 10-20%

 

    Significantly broadened the Company’s product offerings with the launch of 13 products in 2015, including the recently launched MiniFESSTM Surgical Instruments and FocESSTM Sinuscopes designed to expand the number of patients who can benefit from office-based sinus procedures

 

    Achieved balanced revenue growth across ENT offices and ORs – In-Office revenue represented 56% of U.S. product revenue in the fourth quarter

“We are pleased to report strong fourth quarter results. Entellus Medical had a very successful 2015 with many accomplishments as we extended our leadership position in the office setting while maintaining solid growth in the operating room,” said Robert White, President and Chief Executive Officer of Entellus Medical. “The expansion of our product portfolio along with our recently cleared pediatric indication and publication of our REMODEL randomized trial has enabled robust adoption of our XprESS product platform in 2015. We look forward to this trend continuing in 2016.”

Fourth Quarter 2015 Financial Results

Revenue for the fourth quarter increased 25% to $18.1 million from $14.5 million during the same period of the prior year. The growth in revenue was primarily attributable to strong market adoption of the Company’s XprESS family of products in both operating room and physician office-based accounts, international sales and new products.

Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2015 was 76.0%, compared to 77.6% for the same period in 2014. Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 were $18.2 million, an increase of 52% compared to $12.0 million for the same period of the prior year. Gross margin was primarily impacted by the sale of Fiagon products in the United States and the sale of products to international distributors.

Operating expenses in the fourth quarter were slightly higher than projected due to new product introductions and higher sales commissions associated with the strong revenue performance.


Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was $5.0 million, or $0.27 per share, compared with net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.73 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2014.

Full Year 2015 Financial Results

Revenue increased $12.8 million, or 26%, to $61.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $48.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2014. The growth in revenue was primarily attributable to strong market adoption of our XprESS family of products in both operating room and physician office-based accounts and new products.

Gross margin was 77.2% for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to 78.0% for the year ended December 31, 2014. Although unit sales increased, the gross margin decreased due to product and geographic sales mix as well as increased overhead costs.

Total operating expenses were $63.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2015, an increase of 47%, compared to $43.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2014. The primary drivers of this increase were the expansion of the sales force, the launch of new products, higher sales commissions associated with strong revenue performance, increased headcount in finance and IT staff, as well as the cost of being a public company.

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $18.3 million, or $1.06 per share, compared with net loss of $6.9 million, or $4.62 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Entellus Medical ended the fourth quarter of 2015 with $66.8 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments.

2016 Financial Outlook

Entellus Medical expects full year 2016 revenue will be in a range of $73.0 million to $77.0 million, representing annual growth of 19% to 25% and that gross margin will be in a range of 75.0% to 77.0% for 2016. Full year 2016 net loss is expected to be in a range of $21.0 million to $29.0 million.

Entellus Medical expects first quarter 2016 revenue will range from approximately $15.8 million to $16.8 million, representing same quarter growth of 17% to 24% and that gross margin will be in a range of 75.0% to 77.0% for the first quarter of 2016. First quarter net loss is expected to be in the range of $8.0 million to $10.0 million.

About Entellus Medical, Inc.

Entellus Medical is a medical technology company focused on delivering superior patient and physician experiences through products designed for the minimally invasive treatment of chronic and recurrent sinusitis patients. The Entellus Medical platform of products provides physicians with solutions to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of patients suffering from chronic sinusitis. Its XprESS family of products is used by ENT physicians to open narrowed or obstructed sinus drainage pathways using balloon sinus dilation. When used as a stand-alone therapy, Entellus Medical’s balloon sinus dilation products are the only devices proven in a sufficiently powered prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial to be as effective as functional endoscopic sinus surgery


(“FESS”). Patients treated with Entellus Medical’s products in this trial in the ENT physician’s office also experienced faster recovery, less bleeding at discharge, less use of prescription pain medication and fewer post-procedure debridements than patients receiving FESS. In addition to its XprESS line of products, Entellus Medical has recently introduced additional products designed to aid in the diagnosis, treatment and post-operative care of patients suffering from chronic sinusitis. For more information, please visit the Company’s website at www.entellusmedical.com.
