ReShape Lifesciences Announces Third Quarter 2020 Financial and Operational Results
SAN CLEMENTE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / November 12, 2020 / ReShape Lifesciences Inc. (OTCQB:RSLS), a global weight-loss solutions leader, today reported financial and operational results for the three months ended September 30, 2020.
Recent Highlights and Accomplishments
- Increased third-quarter revenues by 3% to $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2019, despite experiencing sustained headwinds from the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Enrolled first 25 healthcare professionals in ReShapeCareTM, the Company’s first-in-class reimbursed, telehealth-based coaching program providing patients a tailored, high-touch, and personalized virtual treatment.
- Reported positive preclinical results from investigational Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation device for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes and successfully completed the goals of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Small Business Innovation Research Phase I grant.
- Continued to execute on the Company’s initiative to manage costs. Reduced total operating expenses by $3.2 million, or 42%, to $4.5 million, primarily driven by a year over year decrease in general and administrative expenses of roughly $2.0 million.
“We are extremely encouraged by the Company’s progress in the third quarter. Despite the challenging healthcare business environment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we were able to increase revenue over the same quarter last year, build interest in the Lap-Band, further drive our clinical programs and expand enrollment into our ReShapeCareTM service, which launched in June 2020,” commented Bart Bandy, President and Chief Executive Officer at ReShape Lifesciences. “We remain very optimistic on the potential that ReShapeCareTM continues to build, as we believe the pandemic has created an increased importance on the value of safe and accessible virtual care. In September, we enrolled our first 25 accounts into this telehealth enabled customizable platform that provides live, customizable virtual support for clinicians and their patients, regardless of the patient’s type of surgical weight loss procedure or therapy. ReShapeCareTM and its reimbursed patient aftercare model, perfectly complement our strong weight-loss care continuum.”
Mr. Bandy concluded, “We were also pleased to execute upon the Company’s initiative to reduce expenses and manage costs, as we reduced total quarter operating expenses by roughly $3.2 million compared to the same period prior year, without significantly reducing key project expenses. We will continue to monitor the pandemic’s impact on our business and Lap-Band procedures, and will make adjustments to our strategy and execution accordingly. It is truly an exciting time for us at ReShape, and we look forward to continuing our momentum in the final months of 2020 and into the new year”.

Non-GAAP Disclosures
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with GAAP, we provide certain historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that, in some respects, these non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of the Company’s ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents.
Management believes that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with greater transparency and facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments, and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, and prospects for the future. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of the Company’s core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, changes in fair value of liability warrants and other one-time costs. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of the Company’s core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process.
