TORONTO, Nov. 02, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NOVADAQ Technologies Inc. ("NOVADAQ" or the “Company") (NASDAQ:NVDQ) (TSX:NDQ), the leading developer and provider of clinically relevant fluorescence imaging solutions for use in surgical and diagnostic procedures, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2016. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts in this press release are expressed in United States (“U.S.”) dollars.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, NOVADAQ reported revenues of $22.2 million, an increase of 30% from $17.0 million in the third quarter of 2015. Total direct sales increased by $4.5 million, or 32%, and total Partnered/International sales increased by $0.7 million, or 20%, compared to Q3-2015.
The following table sets out certain supplemental quarterly revenue and installed base metrics to assist investors in following the Company’s progress over time:

| Recurring | $ | 8.6 | $ | 6.1 | +42 | % | |||||

The Company estimates that the number of procedures performed using SPY technology systems during the third quarter was approximately 14,100 representing an increase of 34% year-over-year and 6% sequentially over the previous quarter.
Third quarter gross profits rose to $15.9 million (72% margin) compared to gross profits of $12.6 million (74%) in the same period last year.
Net loss for the third quarter of 2016 was $10.9 million, or $0.19 basic loss per share, compared with net loss of $3.7 million, or $0.07 basic loss per share, in Q3-2015. The increase in net loss was primarily a result of an increase in operating expenses of $8.2 million and the non-cash warrant revaluation income of $2.3 million recognized in Q3-2015. Offsetting these amounts was an increase in gross profit of $3.3 million.
Third quarter 2016 operating burn (cash consumed by operating activities before changes in working capital) was $7.7 million compared to $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2015. The difference to operating burn was mainly driven by increased operating expenses associated with the continued build-out of NOVADAQ’s direct sales and marketing infrastructure. During Q3-2016, non-cash working capital increased by $1.5 million.
Cash and cash equivalents were $72.2 million at September 30, 2016, reflecting a decrease of $11.8 million compared to the cash position as at June 30, 2016.
“Since my appointment, I have refocused our efforts towards recurring revenue growth. I am pleased that our efforts have resulted in a forty two percent increase year over year,” commented Rick Mangat, NOVADAQ’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Recurring revenue growth will continue to be management’s primary objective as we build our business.”

About NOVADAQ Technologies Inc.
NOVADAQ’s global mission is to enable physicians with point-of-care imaging solutions that provide real time clinically significant and actionable information to improve care quality and lower healthcare costs. Using NOVADAQ’s SPY fluorescence imaging technology, physicians can personalize therapy and achieve optimal results through the precise visualization of blood flow in vessels, micro-vessels, tissue perfusion and critical anatomical structures during the course of treatment. SPY technology enables the delivery of personalized therapies and the achievement of the optimal results for each individual patient. More than 225 peer-reviewed publications demonstrate that the use of SPY technology will reduce post-procedure complication rates and the cost of care for a broad variety of surgical treatments for cancer, cardiovascular diseases and other conditions, helping to ensure that patients benefit from the very best possible treatment and outcome.
SPY Imaging Systems are U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510(k) cleared, Health Canada licensed, CE Marked and registered worldwide for use in multiple surgical specialties and medical applications. The endoscopic version of SPY technology, known as PINPOINT, combines the fluorescence imaging capabilities of SPY with the high definition visible light visualization to establish a new standard in the quality and performance of minimally invasive surgery. NOVADAQ’s LUNA System is used to visualize blood flow and tissue perfusion while treating patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease that impairs blood flow to the extremities and increases the risk for the development of complications such as acute and chronic non-healing wounds and limb loss. NOVADAQ is the exclusive worldwide distributor of LifeNet Health’s DermACELL acellular tissue products for wound and breast reconstruction surgery.
