InVivo Therapeutics Reports 2016 Second Quarter Financial Results and Business Update

InVivo Therapeutics Reports 2016 Second Quarter Financial Results and Business Update

InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. (NVIV) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Mark Perrin, InVivo’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, said, “The second quarter was one marked by continued advancements and outreach. In the INSPIRE study, a fourth patient converted from a complete to an incomplete spinal cord injury, putting us one step closer to achieving the Objective Performance Criterion. The InVivo story was disseminated to life science professionals through our article in Life Science Leader; to researchers through our presentations at the 34th Annual Symposium of the National Neurotrauma Society and at the Committee Roundtable on Biomedical Engineering Materials and Applications; to neurosurgeons through our symposium at the 84th American Association for Neurological Surgeons Annual Scientific Meeting and our case report published in Neurosurgery; and to a broad audience through our feature on WBZ NewsRadio, a CBS radio affiliate. We strengthened our team by adding Christina Morrison to the Board of Directors and the University of Virginia and the University of Pennsylvania to the INSPIRE study, and we enhanced our intellectual property estate by adding a broad patent covering methods of treating spinal cord injuries. We ended the quarter in a strong financial position and believe our funds will last us through the end of 2017.”

Financial Results

For the quarter ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported a net loss of approximately $5,184,000, or $.16 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $10,443,000, or $.39 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The 2016 results were favorably impacted by a gain in the derivative warrant liability (a non-cash item) of $595,000 reflecting changes in the fair market value of the derivative warrant liability. The results for the three months ended June 30 2015 were adversely impacted by a loss in the deferred warrant liability of $4,653,000. Excluding these charges, for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, adjusted net loss per diluted share was $.18 and $.21 respectively.

The Company ended the quarter with $41,629,000 of cash and cash equivalents.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported a net loss of approximately $11,807,000, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $26,273,000 or $1.02 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The 2016 results were adversely impacted by a loss in the derivative warrant liability of $452,000 reflecting changes in the fair market value of the derivative warrant liability. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were adversely impacted by a loss in the derivative warrant liability of $14,940,000. Excluding of these items, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, adjusted net loss per diluted share was $.38 and $.44 respectively.

Adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the items noted. A reconciliation of these measures to the comparable GAAP measure is included with the tables contained in this release. The Company believes a presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors to better understand the Company's operations, on a period-to-period comparable basis, with financial amounts both including and excluding these identified items.

About The INSPIRE Study

The INSPIRE Study: InVivo Study of Probable Benefit of the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold™ for Safety and Neurologic Recovery in Subjects with Complete Thoracic AIS A Spinal Cord Injury, is designed to demonstrate the safety and probable benefit of the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold™ for the treatment of complete T2-T12/L1 spinal cord injury in support of a Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE) application for approval. For more information, refer to https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/study/NCT02138110.

About the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold™ Implant

Following acute spinal cord injury, surgical implantation of the biodegradable Neuro-Spinal Scaffold within the decompressed and debrided injury epicenter is intended to support appositional healing, thereby reducing post-traumatic cavity formation, sparing white matter, and allowing neural regeneration across the healed wound epicenter. The Neuro-Spinal Scaffold, an investigational device, has received a Humanitarian Use Device (HUD) designation and currently is being evaluated in the INSPIRE pivotal probable benefit study for the treatment of patients with complete (AIS A) traumatic acute spinal cord injury.
