“Our preliminary financial results for the third quarter of 2017 reflect continued progress in driving revenue performance while simultaneously improving our operational results and liquidity profile. Despite $500,000 to $600,000 of estimated revenue impact from hurricane disruptions in the third quarter, we are confident in our ability to achieve our updated revenue guidance of $130 to $132 million of revenue in 2017,” said Keith Valentine, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to launch differentiated products and strengthen our distribution network which, coupled with our improving balance sheet, provide confidence that we will successfully execute on the innovation and commercialization strategy critical to fulfilling our mission to deliver cost effective, clinical value to the surgeon, hospital and patient.”
As of September 30, 2017, cash and cash equivalents are expected to be approximately $16.7 million. SeaSpine realized $11.0 million in net proceeds in the third quarter of 2017 through the sale of approximately 1,023,000 shares of its common stock under its “at the market” equity offering program and used a portion of those proceeds to fully pay down all outstanding borrowings under its $30 million credit facility.
2017 Outlook
SeaSpine is updating its full-year 2017 revenue guidance to be in the range of $130 million to $132 million, compared to its previous guidance of $130 million to $133 million. This updated revenue guidance reflects growth of 1% to 2.5% over full-year 2016 revenue.
