PHOENIX, Feb. 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uptick Newswire Stock Day Podcast welcomed SANUWAVE Health, Inc. (SNWV) (“the Company), a shock wave technology company initially focused on the development and commercialization of patented noninvasive, biological response activating devices for the repair and regeneration of skin, musculoskeletal tissue, and vascular structures. CEO and Chairman, Kevin A. Richardson, joined Stock Day host Everett Jolly.
To begin the interview Jolly asked Richardson to share the Company’s goals and expectations for 2019. Richardson explained that the Company’s flagship project is their dermaPACE product, which uses patented PACE technology to aid in the healing of diabetic foot ulcers. 2018 was a successful year for the Company and Richardson expects to expand into 100 treatment centers by the end of 2019. This would lead to a substantial increase in revenue.
“Our goal is to get a device anywhere and everywhere a diabetic foot ulcer is treated. If we do that, over the next few years, we’ll be a $100 million plus company,” stated Richardson. He continued by adding that the Company is in a unique situation where they can grow to high revenues while saving lives with their PACE technology.
Jolly then inquired about the Company’s international deals. Richardson explained that international sales are an extensive process, where revenue is usually present around year three. However, the Company is continuing to expand internationally and expects substantial growth from these partnerships.
When it comes to the Company’s expansion in the United States, Richardson explained that there are currently about 2,200 centers that treat diabetic foot ulcers. In 2019, the Company plans to be placed in 100 facilities, then 300-400 facilities in 2020, and eventually 2,000 by 2022.
Richardson further explained that the Company gets paid every time the device is used, so they are carefully planning their placement strategy based on reimbursement factors. He also stated that the Company plans to expand their use of the PACE technology to reach an even wider market and larger potential revenues.
Jolly then asked whether or not the device is leased to facilities, and if so, what kind of revenue this produces. Richardson explained that wound treatment centers can choose to purchase the device from the Company and then pay a fee each time the device is used, or they could lease the device for a monthly fee. Wound centers can also choose to pay a small monthly procedure fee. In general, the potential revenues for the Company could be up to $100 million with the dermaPACE device placed in 2,000 facilities.
