ENGLEWOOD, CO -- March 15, 2018 -- Viveve Medical Inc. (NASDAQ: VIVE), a medical technology company focused on women's intimate health, today reported financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017.

“Our successful fourth-quarter results completed a remarkable year for Viveve, underscoring the scope of our commercial opportunity and the outstanding execution delivered by our team in every area of our operations throughout the year. During 2017 we rigorously pursued and achieved several key milestones supporting our global commercialization goals,” said Ms. Patricia Scheller, chief executive officer and director of Viveve. “We believe these achievements further solidify our position as a leader in technologies to support women’s intimate health and will allow us to capitalize on the increasing demand, rapid adoption, and expanded utilization of our products in 2018.”

2017 Business Highlights

“With the sale of 227 systems in 2017, Viveve now has a commercial installed base of 444 systems worldwide. We anticipate continued momentum in system sales and consumable utilization in 2018 as we advance our global commercial strategy,” said Scott Durbin, Viveve’s chief financial officer. "Based on the physician response to the U.S. launch of our cryogen-cooled monopolar radiofrequency (CMRF) technology platform and continued international momentum, we believe we are well positioned to build on our 2017 success and project revenue between $22 million and $24 million for 2018.”

Q4 2017 Financial Results

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2017 totaled $5,101,000 from the sale of 80 Viveve Systems and approximately 2,600 treatment tips, compared to revenue of $2,452,000 for the same period in 2016, representing a 108% increase over the fourth quarter of 2016.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2017 was $2,772,000, or 54% of revenue, compared to gross profit of $956,000, or 39% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Total operating expense for the fourth quarter of 2017 was $12,201,000 compared to operating expense of $6,485,000 in the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily the result of increased efforts to support commercialization of Viveve’s products in the U.S.

Spending on research and development during the fourth quarter of 2017 was $3,051,000 compared to $2,052,000 in the fourth quarter of 2016. The increase was due to costs associated with additional engineering and development work with the company’s contract manufacturer related to product line expansion efforts.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2017 were $9,150,000 compared to $4,433,000 in the fourth quarter 2016. The increase was mainly attributable to increased sales and marketing efforts to support Viveve’s commercialization efforts, marketing expenses to build brand and market awareness, and expenses associated with being a public company.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2017 was $10,224,000, or a net loss of $0.53 per share based on 19,435,347 weighted average shares outstanding during the period.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses during 2017 were $28,831,000 versus $12,868,000 in 2016. The increase in SG&A was primarily the result of increased costs associated with Viveve’s U.S. launch, mid-year expansion of the commercial sales organization, marketing efforts to build brand and market awareness, expenses associated with being a public company and financing efforts.

Net loss for 2017 was $36,959,000, or a net loss of $2.11 per share, compared with a net loss of $20,111,000, or a net loss of $2.18 per share for 2016 based on 17,496,942 weighted average shares outstanding during the period.
