Management Commentary

“I am very pleased with our 2017 financial results and with the momentum that led to a record fourth quarter, our ninth consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth,” said Joe Sardano, chairman and chief executive officer of Sensus Healthcare. “We exceeded $20 million in revenues for the year, an increase of 39% over 2016. This growth demonstrates the success of our sales and marketing team in expanding awareness of the advantages of treating non-melanoma skin cancer and keloids with SRT. In 2017 we shipped 68 SRT-100 units, half of which were SRT-100 Vision™ systems. The increased contribution of SRT- 100 Vision™ systems has supported our excellent gross margins, which reached 67% for the year.

“Our research and development team has developed new applications, products and upgrades to our offerings that are expected to support revenue growth for the foreseeable future. Of note, we filed a 510(k) application with the FDA covering the use of our new SRT system for Intraoperative Radiation Therapy (IORT) for breast and other cancers. We also plan to introduce new products during the year that will allow our sales and marketing professionals to further leverage our installed base of dermatologist customers. Our step up in R&D expense in the fourth quarter reflects this investment and we expect similar spending levels during 2018. To protect our proprietary technology we now have four patents issued and 14 pending.”

Mr. Sardano continued, “Following the recent launch of the SRT-100 in China for the treatment and prevention of keloids, we are off to a great start with three units already sold to our partner Chindex Medical in the fourth quarter. As a reminder, this is in addition to our previous launch in China for non-melanoma skin cancer. We are excited about the growth opportunity this new indication represents, as the keloid population in China is very large. We are also planning to expand our presence in Israel as part of an enhanced international strategy.

“Looking forward to 2018, we expect our installed base of SRT systems to increase to over 400 and we are planning to make modest increases to our sales and marketing team throughout the year,” he added. “While we are open to acquisitions that could provide critical mass and are actively pursuing this avenue, we are also focused on developing our own products to bring Sensus to the next level.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Sensus Healthcare management uses Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, in its analysis of performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures nor should it be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the impact of interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-compensation expense, provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of Sensus Healthcare. Non-GAAP financial measures are not formally defined by GAAP, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by Sensus Healthcare. As a complement to GAAP financial measures, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors who follow the practice of some investment analysts who adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude items that may obscure underlying performance and distort comparability. A reconciliation of the GAAP net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the schedule below.
