BELGRADE, MT, Aug. 07, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: XTNT), a leader in the development of regenerative medicine products and medical devices, today reported financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Summary of Second Quarter 2018 Financial Highlights and Recent Announcements:

• Revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $18.7 million, down from $21.4 million for the second quarter of 2017
• Gross Margin for the second quarter of 2018 was 66.6%, compared to 63.2% for the same period in the prior year
• Net loss incurred in the second quarter 2018 was $5.0 million compared to a loss of $9.7 million in the same period of the prior year
• Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was $0.8 million, compared to a loss of approximately $2.1 million during the second quarter of 2017
• The Company expanded its executive management team with the appointment of Kevin Brandt as Chief Commercial Officer
• Xtant Medical stockholders approved the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan

“In reflecting on our performance through the first half of the year, I am very excited about our future as a Company,” said Carl O’Connell, Xtant Medical’s chief executive officer.  “We have made very positive strides and changes so far in 2018, including the restructuring of our balance sheet with the recent debt conversion, improved gross margins, efficiencies in consolidation of operations to Belgrade, MT and now importantly, expansion of our leadership team with the recent addition of Kevin Brandt as chief commercial officer.”

Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $18.7 million, down from $21.4 million compared to the same period of the prior year.  The decrease occurred in the Company’s fixation product lines due principally to competitive factors and a strategic focus on reducing unprofitable sales channel arrangements while improving gross margin and adjusted EBITDA.  This strategic decision, which was implemented in the beginning of the third quarter last year, has contributed positively to many other areas of the business.

Gross margin for the second quarter of 2018 was 66.6%, up from 63.2% for the same period in 2017.  This improvement was due to the Company’s focus on profitable sales channel relationships with higher margins, and from the benefits of restructuring some several operational areas of the organization for efficiencies and cost reduction. 

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2018 were $14.7 million, 78.6% of net revenue, down $5.2 million compared to $19.9 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2017, which was 92.9% of net revenue. The improvement occurred as the Company positions itself for future long-term growth through execution of its channel strategy, moving on from select high-commission sales arrangements, cost reduction and efficiency programs to streamline its operations, including consolidation of facilities, and lower restructuring expenses.

The net loss from operations for the second quarter of 2018 was $5.0 million compared to a loss of $9.7 million for the same period in the prior year, with a net loss per share of $0.38 compared to a net loss of $6.43 per share for the same quarter in the prior year.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2018 was approximately $0.8 million compared to a loss of $2.1 million for the same period during 2017. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income/loss from operations before depreciation, amortization and interest expense, and as further adjusted to add back in or exclude non-cash stock-based compensation, change in warrant derivative liability, separation related expenses, Dayton transition costs and restructuring expenses. A calculation and reconciliation of net loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA can be found in the attached financial tables.

Appointment of Kevin Brandt to Executive Management Team

Kevin Brandt recently joined Xtant as the chief commercial officer.  He is responsible for executing the Company’s sales and marketing initiatives, and driving the commercial strategy of the organization.  Mr. Brandt brings over 28 years of orthopedic experience in the commercial space, most recently as the chief commercial officer of RTI Surgical, where he led all domestic direct lines of business.  Prior to joining RTI Surgical he spent 18 years at Stryker Corporation in various senior commercial leadership positions.

Stockholders Approved the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan

The Xtant Medical stockholders approved the Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”).  The approval occurred at the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders on August 1, 2018, upon recommendation from the Board of Directors. 

The 2018 Plan permits the Board, or a committee thereof, to grant to eligible employees, non-employee directors and consultants of the Company non-statutory and incentive stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards.  The Board may select 2018 Plan participants and determine the nature and amounts of awards to be granted. Subject to adjustment as provided in the 2018 Plan, the number of shares of Company common stock available for issuance under the 2018 Plan is 1,307,747 shares.

The 2018 Plan replaces the Amended and Restated Xtant Medical Equity Incentive Plan and will expire on July 31, 2028. 

Convertible Debt Restructuring

In the first quarter ended March 31, 2018, the Company entered into a restructuring and exchange agreement with holders of Xtant's then outstanding 6% convertible senior unsecured notes due 2021. Pursuant to that agreement, all outstanding convertible notes, constituting $71.9 million in outstanding principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, were converted into 10.6 million shares of Xtant common stock. Most of the conversions occurred on February 14, 2018, after the receipt of stockholder approval of aspects of the restructuring transaction and the effectiveness of a 1-for-12 reverse stock split, which occurred at the close of business on February 13, 2018. On February 14, 2018, the Company issued 945,819 shares of common stock in a private placement at a price per share of $7.20 for cash proceeds of $6.8 million.
