Alachua, FL (PRWEB) April 30, 2014 -- AxoGen, Inc. (NASDAQ: AXGN), a leading medical technology company focused on the $1.6 billion U.S. peripheral nerve repair market, announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014. Revenue for the quarter grew 46% to $3.14 million compared to $2.14 million for the first quarter of 2013.

"Our efforts have resulted in increased sales of our product portfolio - Avance® Nerve Graft, AxoGuard® Nerve Connector and AxoGuard® Nerve Protector – enabling us to report significant revenue growth over last year’s first quarter,” CEO Karen Zaderej

“We are pleased to see strong results from our efforts to pioneer the development of the peripheral nerve repair market. These efforts have resulted in increased sales of our product portfolio - Avance® Nerve Graft, AxoGuard® Nerve Connector and AxoGuard® Nerve Protector – enabling us to report significant revenue growth over last year’s first quarter,” commented Karen Zaderej, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Throughout the past year we worked hard to firmly establish and refine all aspects of our sales and marketing plan. We believe the sequential five percent revenue increase from fourth quarter 2013 to first quarter 2014 demonstrates that our efforts are effective and positions us for increased sales momentum through the remainder of the year. The team remains acutely focused on executing our sales strategy of targeting high and medium potential accounts, selling all three AxoGen brands into these target accounts and educating surgeons.”

2014 First Quarter Financial Results
Revenue for the 2014 first quarter increased 46% to $3.14 million compared to $2.14 million for the first quarter of 2013, reflecting sales to new accounts and increased product usage by existing accounts. Gross margin expanded to 77.7% compared to 73.9% for the first quarter of 2013. The gross margin improvement is due to the product mix, product price increases and manufacturing efficiencies.

Total operating expenses in the first quarter were $5.4 million compared to $3.9 million for the first quarter of 2013. The increased expenses are primarily attributable to the Company’s sales force expansion, higher commissions, marketing efforts, such as surgeon educational programs and training events, additional hires outside sales and marketing and clinical activity.

Operating loss was $3.0 million compared to an operating loss of $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2013. Net loss was $4.2 million, or $0.24 per share, compared to a net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.31 per share, for the first quarter of 2013.

The weighted average common shares for the first quarter of 2014 was approximately 17.4 million shares compared to 11.1 million shares for the first quarter of 2013 as a result of the common stock offering in August 2013.

As of March 31, 2014, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $16.8 million.

“Based on our first quarter revenue performance and continued business momentum in April, we are reaffirming that the projected 2014 revenue of $16 million is achievable while maintaining gross margins of 75%,” concluded Ms. Zaderej.
