During the year, we placed Focal One devices at many highly regarded healthcare institutions, including Mayo Clinic, Houston Methodist Hospital, University of California at Irvine Medical Center and University of Chicago Medicine, among others. We ended the year with a strong sales pipeline and good momentum both in the U.S. and worldwide.“As far as financial results, we grew our company sales by 14.5% year-over-year, which was driven by HIFU sales growth of 28%. We expanded our gross margins to a record 46.8%, which represents an increase of 362 basis points in 2019 as higher margin HIFU sales led to higher profitability. The Company has now been profitable for five consecutive quarters, and we have a strong balance sheet with EUR 20.9 million in cash. We are looking forward to the commencement of U.S. reimbursement for Focal One in 2021, which has the potential to be a significant catalyst for further adoption.“The COVID-19 virus represents a major new challenge for all of us, and we are proactively taking measures across all areas of our business. Our number one priority is the health and safety of our employees and to ensure uninterrupted service to our existing customers. Due to this ongoing pandemic, we anticipate the likelihood of an impact to our near-term revenue as procedures are delayed and the sales cycle for new installations becomes elongated. However, we are pleased with the momentum with which we entered 2020, and we believe we have the resources to successfully navigate this crisis.”“Finally, we are announcing today that Philippe Chauveau is stepping down from his role as Chairman of the Board but will continue to serve as a Director until June of this year, as part of a long-established transition plan. Philippe’s insights have been invaluable since joining our Board in 1997,” Mr. Oczachowski concluded.EDAP’s Chief Executive Officer, Marc Oczachowski, has been selected by the Board to replace Mr. Chauveau as Chairman.
