RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- TransEnterix, Inc. (NYSE American: TRXC), a medical device company that is digitizing the interface between the surgeon and the patient to improve minimally invasive surgery, today announced its operating and financial results for the third quarter of 2020.
Recent Highlights
- Year-to-date, eight clinical programs initiated with one additional system pending installation and over 1,200 procedures performed globally
- First procedures performed in the U.S. using the Intelligent Surgical Unit™ (ISU™) enabling intra-operative, real-time augmented intelligence capabilities in surgery for the first time
- First robotically-assisted pediatric procedures performed utilizing fully reusable 3mm instruments in Europe
- Established Japanese training center for the Senhance® Surgical System to drive growth in Asia-Pacific region
- Filed FDA 510(k) submission for general surgery indication expansion to broaden addressable market
- Appointed Shameze Rampertab as Chief Financial Officer
- Raised $15.0 million in gross proceeds in an underwritten public offering in July of 2020
- The Company now expects to have cash to support its operations into the second quarter of 2021
“The third quarter was immensely productive for the Company despite the ongoing headwinds associated with COVID and the burden placed on hospitals globally. We achieved several key milestones, including the first surgical procedures using the Intelligent Surgical Unit in the U.S. and the first pediatric surgical cases with the Senhance in Europe,” said Anthony Fernando, President, and CEO of TransEnterix. “Looking to the balance of 2020, we are focused on leveraging the continued momentum in system placement and procedures we have created in recent months to deliver on our strategy and bring Senhance’s transformative technology to surgeons, hospitals, and patients globally.”
Commercial and Clinical Update
During the quarter, three clinical Senhance programs were started and one new agreement was signed. Year to date in 2020, the Company has installed eight Senhance systems globally.
There is one additional system pending installation in Japan.
On August 4, 2020, the Company announced that it had filed its 510(k) submission with the FDA for a general surgery indication expansion. Upon clearance, this is expected to add approximately 800,000 general and bariatric procedures to the Company’s addressable market.
On September 14, 2020, the Company announced that it established the first training center for the Senhance in the Asia-Pacific region in Japan at the Saitama Medical University International Medical Center in the Greater Tokyo Area. The Japanese Training Center is expected to drive increased utilization of our seven system installations in the Asia-Pacific region and encourage further adoption of our technology in additional hospitals.
On September 23, 2020, the Company announced it completed its first surgical procedures using the ISU at Hackensack Meridian Health Pascack Valley Medical Center in New Jersey. The ISU adds augmented intelligence to the Senhance. Currently, the ISU enables machine vision driven control of the camera which allows the System to recognize certain objects and locations in the surgical field, and provides seamless sharing of the surgeon console’s view across all members of the operating room team in real-time, all the while allowing the surgeon to maintain full control. These initial capabilities are foundational to planned future augmented intelligence features such as scene cognition and surgical image analytics that are expected to further enhance the digital laparoscopic experience with Senhance.
On October 13, 2020, the Company announced the first pediatric patient procedures at Maastricht University Medical Center+ in the Netherlands. This is the first pediatric surgical program in the world to utilize the Senhance and integrate digital laparoscopy with instruments as small as 3 mm into their standard of surgical care. The Senhance is the only robotic-assisted surgical system in the world to provide fully reusable 3 mm instruments.
Underwritten Public Offering
On July 6, 2020, the Company announced the closing of an underwritten common stock offering, raising gross proceeds of $15.0 million, which included the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option to purchase additional shares.
Third Quarter Financial Results
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reported revenue of $0.8 million as compared to revenue of $2.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019. Revenue in the third quarter of 2020 included $0.2 million in system leasing, $0.2 million in instruments and accessories, and $0.4 million in services.
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, total operating expenses were $14.6 million, as compared to $96.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019.
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, net loss attributable to common stockholders was $15.1 million, or $0.15 per share, as compared to a net loss of $97.8 million, or $5.55 per share, in the three months ended September 30, 2019.
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders was $11.9 million, or $0.12 per share, as compared to an adjusted net loss of $20.6 million, or $1.17 per share in the three months ended September 30, 2019. Adjusted net loss is GAAP net loss adjusted in the third quarter of 2020 for the following items: goodwill impairment, change in fair value of contingent consideration, intangible asset impairment, amortization of intangible assets, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, loss from sale of SurgiBot assets, acquisition related costs, restructuring and other charges, deemed dividend related to beneficial conversion feature of the preferred stock, and deemed dividend related to the conversion of preferred stock into common stock. Adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders is a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation from GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures can be found at the end of this earnings release.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $21.1 million as of September 30, 2020.
As a result of the restructuring completed in the first quarter of 2020, cost optimization efforts, and recent equity financing, together with anticipated cash received from operating activities, including cash from system sales and leases, instruments and accessories, and services, we believe that cash on hand will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs into the second quarter of 2021.
COVID-19 Impact and Business Outlook
Given the continued uncertainty that exists within the global healthcare market, we cannot currently predict the specific extent or duration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial and operating results. We are not providing forward looking guidance at this time.

Non-GAAP Measures
The adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share presented in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures. The adjustments relate to backing out goodwill impairment, change in fair value of contingent consideration, intangible asset impairment, amortization of intangible assets, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, loss from sale of SurgiBot assets, acquisition related costs, restructuring and other charges, deemed dividend related to beneficial conversion feature of the preferred stock, and deemed dividend related to the conversion of preferred stock into common stock. These financial measures are presented on a basis other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“Non-GAAP Measures”). In the tables that follow under “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures,” we present adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share, reconciled to their comparable GAAP measures. These items are adjusted because they are not operational or because these charges are non-cash or non-recurring and management believes these adjustments are meaningful to understanding the Company’s performance during the periods presented. These Non-GAAP Measures should be considered a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 provide management with additional insight into the Company’s results of operations from period to period without non-recurring and non-cash charges, and are calculated using the following adjustments:
a) Loss from sale of SurgiBot assets relates to additional outside service costs to transfer the assets in connection with the sale of SurgiBot assets to Great Belief International Limited.
b) Intangible assets that are amortized consist of developed technology and purchased patent rights recorded at cost and amortized over 5 to 10 years.
c) Contingent consideration in connection with the acquisition of the Senhance System in 2015 is recorded as a liability and is the estimate of the fair value of potential milestone payments related to business acquisitions. Contingent consideration is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving each of the potential milestones and an estimated discount rate associated with the risks of the expected cash flows attributable to the various milestones. Significant increases or decreases in any of the probabilities of success or changes in expected timelines for achievement of any of these milestones would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value of these milestones, respectively, and commensurate changes to the associated liability. The contingent consideration is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
d) Acquisition related costs were incurred in connection with the MST purchase agreement and consist of legal, accounting, and other costs.
e) The Company’s Series B Warrants are measured at fair value using a simulation model which takes into account, as of the valuation date, factors including the current exercise price, the expected life of the warrant, the current price of the underlying stock, its expected volatility, holding cost and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the warrant. The warrant liability is revalued at each reporting period or upon exercise and changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
f) During the fourth quarter of 2019, we announced the implementation of a restructuring plan to reduce operating expenses as we continue the global market development of the Senhance platform. During March 2020, the Company continued the restructuring efforts with additional headcount reductions which resulted in $0.9 million related to severance costs in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
g) As of September 30, 2019, goodwill was deemed to be fully impaired, and the Company recorded an impairment charge of $79.0 million. As of September 30, 2019, IPR&D was deemed to be significantly impaired, and the Company recorded an impairment charge of $7.9 million. No impairment charges were recorded during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2020.
h) During the first quarter of 2020, the Company closed an underwritten public offering under which it issued, as part of units and the exercise of an over-allotment option, 25,367,646 Series C Warrants, each to acquire one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.68 per share, and 25,367,646 Series D Warrants, each to acquire one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.68 per share. The Company concluded that the Series C Warrants and Series D Warrants are considered equity instruments. The fair value of the Series C and Series D Warrants on the issuance date was determined using a Black-Scholes Merton model. The unit proceeds were then allocated to the Series A preferred stock, Series C Warrants, and Series D Warrants, respectively, based on their relative fair values. As a result, the Company determined that a beneficial conversion feature was created by the difference between the effective conversion price of the preferred stock of $0.37 and the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date of $0.42. The Company therefore recorded a beneficial conversion charge of $0.4 million as an immediate charge to earnings available to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Upon conversion of the preferred stock to common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2020, an additional deemed dividend of $0.3 million was recorded as an immediate charge to earnings available to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
