Highlights
EDAP TMS SA (Nasdaq:EDAP), the global leader in therapeutic ultrasound, announced today financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012.
Philippe Chauveau, EDAP's Chairman of the Board of Directors, said, "The Board has unanimously decided upon a major shift in EDAP's strategy and recommended, with immediate effect, that EDAP focus its efforts on the U.S. market where opportunities and priorities have been identified. This focus will involve immediate relocation to the U.S. of EDAP's CEO Marc Oczachowski."
Marc Oczachowski, EDAP's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "I fully endorse the Board of Directors' vision to focus our efforts on U.S. opportunities and priorities. I am fully committed to making this happen in the U.S., while relying on the existing solid management team in the rest of the world."
Marc Oczachowski, further remarked, "With respect to our earnings this quarter, and in line with typical historical seasonality, our first quarter sales activity was fairly flat year-over-year, with five lithotripsy devices and one Ablatherm-HIFU device sold. As you know, EDAP had a very robust fourth quarter with the sale of sixteen lithotripsy devices and one Ablatherm-HIFU device. We are continuing to replenish our pipeline of leads and projects. At this time, we have a sales backlog of eleven lithotripsy devices."
Mr. Oczachowski stated, "Selling three Sonolith i-move devices in the United States in the last five months is a significant accomplishment. The quality and the size of the three groups of urologists that have elected the innovative Sonolith i-move as their newest device is clear recognition and proof that our state-of-the-art lithotriptor is positioned to take significant market share in the U.S. We are continuing to conduct demonstrations at prestigious urology groups across the country, and are gaining traction with increased interest in and demand for the technological advantages afforded by our next generation lithotripter. We look forward to showcasing our Sonolith i-move at the AUA Annual Meeting starting this weekend."
Recent Developments
In March 2012, EDAP sold its third Sonolith i-move lithotripter in the U.S. to Allied Metro, a New York tri-state area partnership with more than 300 urologists. The installation followed a demonstration trial last year, during which Allied Metro's staff was impressed with the Sonolith i-move's performance. Following installation, the Sonolith i-move continues to receive excellent reviews from the physicians and technologists at this established urology practice.
Also in first quarter 2012, EDAP installed its Ablatherm-HIFU device at the HIFU Clinic in Warsaw, Poland. Since installation, nine Ablatherm-HIFU treatments have been performed in Poland. The installation in Warsaw broadens EDAP's footprint in Europe and continues the Ablatherm-HIFU expansion across major international markets.
In January 2012, EDAP conducted an exchange offering to restructure its convertible debt. Under the terms of the exchange, EDAP repaid $0.5 million of the $10.5 million convertible debentures and exchanged the remaining $10.0 million convertible debentures and related warrants for new warrants and new non-convertible notes with extended maturity to June 2014.
Then in March 2012, EDAP continued the strengthening of its financial profile by closing a registered direct placement of $5.625 million ordinary shares and warrants. Approximately 60% of the proceeds will be used to finance the Company's marketing efforts, including the repositioning of its Ablatherm-HIFU for focal and salvage therapy and strengthening of its marketing and sales program in the U.S. for the Sonolith i-move lithotripter device. The remaining 40% of the net proceeds from the offering were utilized to reduce debt by $2.0 million.

About EDAP TMS SA
EDAP TMS SA develops and markets Ablatherm(R), the most advanced and clinically proven choice for high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment of localized prostate cancer. HIFU treatment is shown to be a minimally invasive and effective treatment option with a low occurrence of side effects. Ablatherm-HIFU is generally recommended for patients with localized prostate cancer (stages T1-T2) who are not candidates for surgery or who prefer an alternative option, or for patients who failed radiotherapy treatment. Approved in Europe as a treatment for prostate cancer, Ablatherm-HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is currently undergoing evaluation in a multi-center U.S. Phase II/III clinical trial under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) granted by the FDA, the ENLIGHT U.S. clinical study. The Company also is developing this technology for the potential treatment of certain other types of tumors. EDAP TMS SA also produces and commercializes medical equipment (the Sonolith(R) range) for treatment of urinary tract stones using extra-corporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL).
