Records Purchase Orders for 25 Systems
Mazor Robotics Ltd. (TASE:MZOR; NASDAQGM:MZOR), a pioneer and a
leader in the field of surgical guidance systems, today announced
that it received purchase orders for 25 systems during the third
quarter ended September 30, 2016 including pre-launch orders for
the recently unveiled Mazor X, a transformative guidance platform
for spine surgeries. The Mazor X will be commercially launched at
the North American Spine Society (NASS) annual meeting in Boston,
MA October 26-29.
“The market’s response to the Mazor X is exceptional, exceeding
our early expectations,” commented Ori Hadomi, Chief Executive
Officer. “Customers who first experience the Mazor X at our
training centers are quickly realizing the increased benefits of
the system and they have already placed pre-launch orders. Mazor’s
expanded portfolio of products, which now includes both the Mazor X
and Renaissance systems, is responsible for the record number of
purchase orders we received in the third quarter. As we move into
the fourth quarter, we expect to build our momentum in the market
as the Mazor X is launched, maximize our presence at NASS and our
strategic partnership with Medtronic continues to be
implemented.”
The 25 system purchase orders during the quarter included:
- Three Mazor X pre-orders that the
Company expects to deliver to U.S. customers by the end of the 2017
first quarter.
- Four Renaissance systems ordered by
U.S. customers were delivered during Q3 2016.
- Three Renaissance systems ordered by
distribution partners in the International Market.
- 15 Mazor X systems ordered by strategic
partner Medtronic, four of which were delivered in the 2016 third
quarter.
During the third quarter, Mazor delivered a previously ordered
Renaissance system to a distribution partner in the international
market.
As previously reported, the Company recently implemented a
policy enabling new Renaissance system customers to exchange to the
Mazor X following the launch. Therefore, revenue from system sales
with exchange option will be deferred until the Mazor X orders are
supplied or the exchange option expires. The Company expects total
third quarter revenue, including system sales and recurring
revenues, to be approximately $7.5 million.
Mazor Robotics ended the third quarter with an installed base of
131 Renaissance systems globally, including 79 in the U.S., the
Company’s primary growth market. The Company currently intends to
report its complete financial results for the third quarter ended
September 30, 2016 in November and will issue a press release with
the date, time and dial in and webcast details.
