Femasys Inc. Announces Financial Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2023

-Received regulatory approval for both FemaSeed® and FemCerv® products from Health Canada-

ATLANTA, May 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Femasys Inc. (NASDAQ: FEMY), a biomedical company aiming to meet women's needs worldwide by developing a suite of product candidates that include minimally invasive, in-office technologies for reproductive health, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 and provided a corporate update.

“We continue to expand our commercial portfolio with Health Canada’s recent approval of both FemaSeed® and FemCerv® to improve the continuum of healthcare options for women,” said Kathy Lee-Sepsick, founder, president and chief executive officer of Femasys. “These two product approvals broaden our commercial offerings for women, with FemaSeed complementing FemVue®, our device that enables an in-office ultrasound assessment of the fallopian tubes as part of an infertility diagnosis prior to FemaSeed. Our goal is to further grow this synergistic product portfolio by exploring commercialization opportunities. These product offerings, along with our lead product candidate, FemBloc® permanent birth control, have the potential to address substantial, multi-billion-dollar global market segments by bringing safe, accessible options to women.”

First Quarter 2023 and Recent Corporate Highlights:

  • Recently, in April and May, Femasys received two product approvals, for both FemaSeed and FemCerv, from Health Canada, the Public Health Agency of Canada.

    • FemaSeed is the first-ever infertility solution designed to deliver sperm directly to where conception occurs. FemaSeed is a localized artificial insemination option designed to be less invasive and more affordable than assisted reproduction.

    • FemCerv is the first endocervical tissue sampler designed to collect and contain a tissue sample in a relatively pain-free manner to detect the presence of cancerous cells in a woman’s cervix. FemCerv is now commercially available the U.S. and Canada.

  • In April, Femasys raised $3.9 million in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. The offering closed on April 20, 2023. The proceeds from this offering will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and is expected to extend Femasys’ cash runway into the second quarter of 2024.

  • In March, Femasys founder, president and chief executive officer, Kathy Lee-Sepsick, joined other thought leaders in Women’s Health for a panel discussion at SXSW 2023 discussing family planning and infertility options, during a panel, titled, “The Future of Fertility: The Post-Roe Fertility Journey”.

First Quarter 2023 Financial Results

  • Research and development expenses increased by $116,376 to $1,537,439 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $1,421,063 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The net increase largely consists of a $135,496 increase in compensation and related personnel costs primarily due to increasing costs associated with hiring and retaining personnel to support our clinical trial.
  • General and administrative expenses decreased by $132,218 to $1,315,137 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $1,447,355 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was largely due to a decrease in salaries and related personnel costs, a decrease in facility and other overhead costs mainly for directors & officers (D&O) insurance, and a decrease in legal and certain professional costs.
  • Sales decreased by $27,421 to $293,984 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $321,405 for the same period last year. U.S. sales, however, increased by $30,624, or 11.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023; however, there were no international sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $58,045 reported for the same period last year, resulting in a decrease in sales. The decrease in sales resulted from the timing of international placed orders. Units sold in the U.S. increased by 7.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period last year.

  • Sales and marketing expenses increased by $176,033 to $244,896 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $68,863 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The net increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation and related personnel costs due to an increase in headcount and marketing costs to promote our commercial efforts.
  • Cost of sales decreased by $17,555 to $105,120 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $122,675 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in cost of sales is mainly attributable to increased efficiency achieved through the purchase of new equipment and tooling which will enable us to reduce labor and material costs in certain manufacturing processes. Gross margin percentage was 64.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to 61.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Gross margins improved due to higher U.S. sales which have lower cost of sales than international sales.

  • Net loss was $2,946,257 or $0.25 per basic and diluted share attributable to common stockholders, primarily reflecting the factors noted above, for the period ended March 31, 2023, compared to $2,883,030, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share attributable to common stockholders, for the same period ended March 31, 2022.

  • Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023 was $10,161,338. Based on our current operating plan, our existing cash and cash equivalents, along with the net proceeds from our recent financing are expected to be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations into the second quarter of 2024.

About FemaSeed®

FemaSeed is a first-of-its-kind infertility solution in development for directional intrauterine insemination that delivers sperm to the fallopian tube where conception occurs. It is intended to augment natural fertilization and provide a first-line treatment option for infertility. FemaSeed is designed to be less invasive and more affordable than assisted reproduction, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

About FemBloc®

FemBloc is a first-of-its-kind, nonsurgical, non-implant, in-office solution in development for permanent birth control. It is intended to be a safer option for women by eliminating the need for anesthesia, incisions, and permanent implants. FemBloc has the potential to offer women a convenient and reliable option for permanent birth control.
In July 2022, Femasys hosted a Key Opinion Leader (KOL) Event with Paul D. Blumenthal, MD, MPH, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at The Stanford University Medical Center to discuss FemBloc. To listen to a replay of this event, please click here.

About FemVue®

FemVue is the first FDA-cleared product that creates natural saline and air contrast and enables safe, reliable, and real time evaluation of the fallopian tubes with ultrasound. When performed with a uterine cavity assessment, a more comprehensive exam can be achieved from the comfort of the GYN’s office.

About FemCath®

FemCath is the first FDA-cleared product that allows for selective evaluation of the fallopian tubes by using in conjunction with the FemVue device. The ultrasound-based diagnostic test is part of an infertility evaluation, which is essential prior to any infertility treatment, including with our other biomedical solution in development, FemaSeed.

About FemCerv® 

FemCerv is the first FDA-cleared product that allows for the capture and protection of a comprehensive 360-degree endocervical tissue sample in a relatively pain-free office visit. FemCerv features an expandable collection chamber that is exposed during sampling and closed during removal for containment of cervical cells and tissue. 

About Femasys 

Femasys Inc. is a biomedical company aiming to meet women's needs worldwide by developing a suite of products and product candidates that include minimally invasive, in-office technologies for reproductive health. Its two lead product candidates are FemBloc® permanent birth control and FemaSeed® localized directional insemination for infertility. The Company’s products currently marketed in the United States include FemVue® for fallopian tube assessment by ultrasound, which can be used in conjunction with FemCath®, an intrauterine catheter for selective evaluation of the fallopian tubes, and FemCerv®, an endocervical tissue sampler that is the first product of the technology platform for tissue sampling. To learn more, visit www.femasys.com or follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn
