Olivier Taelman
Thank you, Jeremy. Good afternoon. And good evening, everyone. And thank you for joining us for our third quarter of 2022 earnings call.
As an overview of the third quarter, I’m happy to report that we are on the verge of closing implants in our US pivotal study, DREAM. And we remain on track to have 12-month clinical data in fall 2023.
We have also commenced our US ACCESS trial for complete concentric collapse or CCC patients, with first implants expected before year-end.
Commercially, demand for Genio in Germany remains robust, and we keep showing growth in opening new sites. This reconfirms of confidence exiting 2022 as market leaders in Germany.
Let’s first begin with a fact-based summary of our Q3 achievements. To date, we have implanted 110 patients in our DREAM trial, with the remainder to be completed in the coming weeks. This will start the clock to generating 12-month efficacy data next fall.
From a regulatory perspective, we plan to submit the first three modules of our modular PMA prior to having clinical data next fall. We reiterate our timeline of regulatory approval in the second quarter of 2024.
We have begun activating sites in our US ACCESS pivotal study focused on complete concentric collapse patients and continue to expect initial implants before the year-end. As a reminder, CCC patients represent approximately 30% of hypoglossal nerve stimulation eligible to treat OSA patients who are contraindicated to commercially available HGNS therapy in the US and who currently have no suitable treatment option other than major palate surgery.
Commercially, in Germany, demand for Genio remains high. We activated six new commercial sites in Germany during the third quarter, bringing our total to 32 active sites. We expect a very strong fourth quarter with up to 40 active sites by year-end.
That said, we were supply constrained due to a temporary issue at one of our component providers, which I will detail shortly. That resulted in us postponing availability of inventory in Germany. The US DREAM trial was never impacted by this inventory constraint.
As a result, we reported sales of €182,000, well below underlying demand. This is not reflective of the progress our commercial team has made as we received additional purchase orders of roughly €700,000 that remained open at quarter-end.
Importantly, the supply issue has been remediated, and the vast majority of the orders that were open have since been filled. Notably, despite the supply constraint, with combined third quarter open orders and reported sales, we estimate that our share remains consistent with the second quarter. What makes me even happier is to see the demand in Q4 remains high. This strengthens our confidence to be the market leader exiting 2022 in Germany.
Now, let me start with a review of our first priority and update of our two pivotal ID studies in the US, DREAM and ACCESS. In the DREAM study, to date, we have completed 110 of the 115 implants, with the remaining five implants scheduled for the next few weeks. We remain on track having 12-month clinical data from the study in the fall of 2023, with regulatory approval expected in the second quarter of 2024.
As discussed previously, we are pursuing a modular PMA process. We are preparing the first module and anticipate submitting it in early 2023. In the meantime, we have already begun investing in our US market ACCESS organization to ensure reimbursement upon approval.
As for our ACCESS study for complete concentric collapse patients, we are now activating clinical sites. As a reminder, we plan to implant up to 106 patients across up to 40 clinical sites in the US. These CCC patients, who represent 30% of the eligible to treat hypoglossal nerve stimulation OSA population, are currently contraindicated for hypoglossal nerve stimulation in the US, and therefore, their only treatment option after failing CPAP is currently major palate surgery.
With a CCC label, not only will these CCC patients be eligible for hypoglossal nerve stimulation therapy, but all Genio patients will no longer have to undergo a drug induced sleep endoscopy, or DISE, since determining CCC will no longer be a prerequisite to getting an implant.
In Europe, where we already obtained a CCC indication, physicians and patients are already benefiting from no need for the DISE procedure. This is a true demonstration of our patient’s first approach to OSA therapy. Not only are we providing a much less invasive treatment option for CCC patients, but we’re also streamlining the path to hypoglossal nerve stimulation therapy for all Genio patients by eliminating the need for the DISE or any procedure to diagnose CCC.
We still anticipate initial implants before year-end, and we expect to complete all 106 implants in ACCESS within a year for the following reasons. First, we already have a database of patients who screened out of DREAM because DISE showed they have CCC. Second, we will have more opportunities to enroll patients since we will activate up to 40 sites versus 20 sites for DREAM. Third, there are no hypoglossal nerve stimulation alternatives for CCC patients, so there will be no competition for these cases. Four, home sleep tests will be used to qualify patients, and we have learned a great deal from DREAM in how to more efficiently move patients to the funnel from enrollment all the way to implant. We continue to expect regulatory approval in the first half of 2025. So, roughly one year after the non-CCC approval that we expect coming from DREAM.
Importantly, we are generating growing interest and enthusiasm within the clinical community as we move closer to US commercialization. This was evidenced by more than 90 EMT surgeons and sleep physicians who attended our symposium at the AAO HNS Congress in Philadelphia in September.
Nyxoah’s patient-centric approach, which includes full body MRI compatibility, or lidless system, bilateral stimulation, followed by a non-implantable pulse generator, a scalable platform is resonating very well with the US clinical community. I would like to thank the entire Nyxoah team for their great work and focus on execution as we continue to advance the Nyxoah story.
Moving on to the second priority, our European commercial launch, focused primarily in Germany. Germany is the largest and most competitive hypoglossal nerve stimulation market outside of the United States. Nyxoah has a dedicated German sales and marketing team of 15 people and, similar to DRG, and reimbursement level at the same price point as other hypoglossal knowledge stimulation technologies. We have defined our commercial success by becoming market leaders by the end of 2022.
As I mentioned earlier, during the third quarter, we experienced a temporary supply disruption in Europe, as one of our components suppliers had a malfunctioning machine. This has been solved. To further optimize our supply chain this quarter, we are bolstering our Israeli manufacturing capacity with a second site in Belgium and have sufficient capacity to meet demand. Additionally, we are in the process of adding a third production line in the US, with a well-known contract manufacturer.
That said, during the third quarter, we postponed availability of commercial inventory in Germany, and therefore, report sales of €182,000. Underlying demand, however, remains very strong, with about €700,000 of confirmed purchase orders being deferred to the fourth quarter.
While I do not plan on providing any fourth quarter guidance, since we never provided any guidance, I think it is important to show that the third quarter supply issue has not dampened demand for Genio. We continue to hear from physicians that because of our label expansion to include patients with complete concentric collapse, they are increasingly opting for Genio as they do not have to perform a drug induced sleep endoscopy, or DISE, procedure. This drastically shortens the time between diagnosis and implant and removes the burden for both patients and physicians, thus positively impacting access to Genio for patients who are in desperate need of a suitable solution for their OSA.
We also launched the program called Care4 in Germany. Care4 will use the AcuPebble home sleep test to accelerate the pathway to a Genio solution. AcuPebble will be used to confirm a prior PSG for existing CPAP patients, thus enabling them to receive an HGNS implant without waiting up to six months for a confirmatory PSG.
To this end, we are hosting an event around the German National Sleep Society Annual Conference in Wiesbaden tomorrow, and titled Obstructive Sleep Apnea from Diagnosis to Treatment. This event will be webcast and information on how to access it is present on our website.
Looking at markets outside of Germany this quarter, we commercially implant patients in Switzerland where we have a full reimbursement, including DRG in place.
We continue to establish our position as an innovation leader in the OSA space, always putting patients and clinicians first in our R&D strategy. As we have discussed previously, we received regulatory approvals for Genio 2.1 next generation system, which improves patient comfort and compliance without the need for surgical procedures to replace the implantable component. Genio remains the only scalable hypoglossal nerve stimulation implant which allows patients to always have the most advanced features with their existing implant and, therefore, not have to undergo another surgery.
We are also developing future generation of both the implantable stimulators and the activation chip to improve the patient experience. For the implantable stimulator, we are working on an implant for life. As for the activation chip, its design will become more ergonomic and integrate patients’ and physicians’ feedback We will provide further updates on these developments as they progress.
Now updating you on the Vanderbilt Nyxoah ansa cervicalis collaboration project. We are processing towards a prototype device and expect to commence a feasibility study in 2023. These efforts embody our mission to build a product pipeline that will enable us to expand the market by offering solutions to current non-responding hypoglossal nerve stimulation patients and non-eligible moderate to severe OSA patients. We look forward to providing periodic updates.
With that, I’m pleased to turn the call over to our CFO, Loïc Moreau, who will provide a financial update.
Loïc Moreau
Thank you, Olivier. Good day and good evening to everyone. And thank you for joining us today. Revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 was €182,000. As Olivier already mentioned, third quarter revenue was impacted by a temporary supply disruption that limited our ability to meet demand in the quarter. The issue has been remediated, and we have filled the vast majority of the open orders with no cancellation.
Total cost of goods sold for the third quarter of 2022 was €63,000, implying a gross margin of 65.3%. As a reminder, we continue to expect gross margin to expand over time, in line with other neurostimulation companies as we achieved greater commercial scale.
Total third quarter operating expenses were in line with our plan as we continue to focus on research and development programs. R&D increased €4.2 million in the third quarter of 2022 from €3.5 million in the third quarter 2021, mostly due to the development of future generations of Genio.
Selling, general and administrative expenses rose to €4.8 million for the third quarter of 2022 from €4.5 million in the year-ago quarter, due primarily to increased commercial efforts in Germany and other European markets.
We also added headcount to our corporate infrastructure, and expect to continue investing in human capital as we further scale up our organization, particularly our US commercial team.
Total operating loss for the third quarter of 2022 was $8.8 million versus $8.1 million in the third quarter of 2021, driven by the delay in the third quarter revenue, the acceleration in our R&D spending, and our commercial and clinical activities.
As of September 30, 2022, cash and financial assets totaled €115.4 million compared to €135.5 million on December 31, 2021.
Monthly total cash burn was around €3 million during the third quarter, which benefited from foreign exchange tailwinds. We continue to expect monthly cash burn to increase slightly going forward as we commence the ACCESS trial in the US and invest in our direct to patient marketing efforts in Germany.
With that, I will turn the call back to Olivier.
Olivier Taelman
Thank you, Loïc. I’m extremely proud of how the team responded to the challenges we faced during the third quarter and how strongly we are executing coming out of it. As a result, we are not changing any of our expectations on our key strategic objectives, being having DREAM 12-month clinical data available in the fall of 2023, resulting in regulatory approval before 2020 summer; implanting our ACCESS patients this quarter and achieving German leadership by the end of the year.
This concludes the formal part of our presentation. Operator, I will turn the call over to you to begin our Q&A session.
Question-and-Answer Session
Operator
[Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from Adam Maeder with Piper Sandler.
Simran Kaur
This is Simran on for Adam. I want to start off on the supply chain disruption that occurred during the quarter. So, when exactly does that occur? And it does sound like you guys have taken the steps to kind of mitigate or prevent that from occurring. What should we be expecting in terms of the second source supplier that you found? And it sounds like additional manufacturing capacity. So, I guess what should we be expecting from a capacity perspective going forward.
To follow on there, even if we back in the unfulfilled orders, that still puts Q3 revenue shy of the Street by about €500,000 or so. So can you elaborate on the commercial trends in the quarter, maybe just talk about some of the headwinds that you’re seeing in the field or in the commercial organization and then progression month to month, that’d be great as well.
Olivier Taelman
Let me start by answering. Of course, it’s very inconvenient when you’re facing something that we went through. To answer your question, we saw this – it was picked up end of August that there was an issue with one of our sub suppliers. I think with a fast growing company, those kinds of bumps in the road can happen. And I think more important is also how the team shows their resilience in solving this. So, therefore, I can confirm the moment we saw this, I think the positive thing is that our quality system immediately picked it up. Next, we solved the issue. And then we started rebuilding and making sure that we were able to have a significant supply. That is one thing.
On top of this, and this is not new, but I would like to reemphasize on this. Next to our Israeli manufacturing plant, we also now have the Belgium manufacturing site that passed successfully their audit. So that will definitely increase and make sure that we have sufficient manufacturing capacity to meet all clinical and commercial demands, and to build stock going forward. And I hope that this answering the first part of the question.
Now the next part that I’m hearing is where you are saying, what about your German revenue expectations for the third quarter? So, yes, in total, we see that we have 9 on the scale of demand. And that is showing that our market share was consistent with the market share we reported in the second quarter, despite the procedure deferrals to the fourth quarter. So that’s one thing.
When it comes to the Street expectation, so we never gave any guidance and we are still not doing this. What I can say is that, we still feel very confident that we will have a strong Q4 quarter, that on top of this we were able also to have the back orders filled that we saw during quarter three, and therefore, that we can exit 2022 more or less in line with the expectations of the analyst consensus. Without giving too guidance, I think I’m answering quite a lot. So we expect 2022 to be in line with the analyst consensus. A strong Q4. We fixed our issue. We also backfilling the shortage that we had and the POs that we have that were standing open in quarter three.
Simran Kaur
Just to maybe put a finer point on your comments there. I think I’m seeing consensus revenue about €2 million in Q4 prior to this call. So, it sounds like that should still hold and does also take into account this one time kind of bolus of unfulfilled orders that we should be expecting to see in Q4. Is that the right way to think about it?
Olivier Taelman
Yes. So we want to keep our Q4 being very strong. We want to pick up the loss that we have in quarter three. Since you’re talking specific numbers, the Street consensus for 2022 is $5 million. And there, we are still feeling very confident that this is within reach.
Simran Kaur
I guess another question that I had was we understand there was a change to the guidelines in Germany regarding the role of oral appliances and where that fits into the care continuum, and specifically between CPAP and hypoglossal nerve stimulation. Is that correct? And can you level set us there with more details? Like, have you seen an impact to your business? And how could you navigate this dynamic going forward?
Olivier Taelman
In all honesty, we have not seen any impact of this to our business. So, that is I want I can comment. I know it’s a very short comment, but we did not see any impact at all to our business from this.
Simran Kaur
I guess if I could squeeze one last one in here just on DREAM. As I think about the timelines, if you expect to finish implanting all the patients, and I think you said the coming weeks, a 12-month follow up would put you in the late November, kind of December timeframe. So that does sound more like a late 2024 event in terms of when you would finish all of the clinical data work. So Q2 2024 regulatory approval, that does seem a bit tight. So maybe just walk us through that timing and your confidence to reaffirm the timelines here.
Olivier Taelman
First of all, we expect indeed 12-month data in fall 2023, so end of November. As you know, this is an open label study. So we are able to track, to monitor and to analyze data in real time. So, therefore, we will have the full data set very soon after the final patient implanted reaches 12 months. That’s one thing.
Now on top of this, we talked about a modular PMA, where the first three modules already be submitted and should be also opposed, so that by the time we reach November or end of November, we only need to add the efficacy module to this. And then we think that it’s really realistic to have six to seven months after that, getting a regulatory approval by the FDA. And that brings us to the timeline where I was saying, by the animals quarter two in 2024, we are expecting regulatory approval.
Operator
Our next question comes from Jon Block with Stifel.
Jonathan Block
Maybe just on the first one, Olivier. If the inventory issues did not impact DREAM, which I think you were pretty clear it did not, can you just talk a little bit about what’s slowed the enrollment pace? Or maybe I should say the implantation pace in 3Q. I think on the prior 2Q call in August, you thought you might be a couple months away? I think it was maybe four to six or even eight weeks. It looks like it might fall closer to four months, give or take. So is there anything to call out in terms of what slowed down at the centers? Again, it doesn’t seem to be a supply issue, but market or competitor wise, that has caused really just a slight push, if you would, out by a couple of months to the right.
Olivier Taelman
First of all, let me start by confirming that there was never any inventory issue in the US for DREAM study. So, that, you picked up very well.
So, answering your question, over the last few months, we implemented solution to existing bottlenecks. I’m sure you recall, during our last earnings calls, that we identified two major bottlenecks. One was scheduling PSG slots, and the other one was finding OR time or dealing with OR capacity.
Now for the PSGs and finding the PSG slots, we addressed the bottleneck by working with private sleep centers, and that seems to work out very well. Now, when it comes to finding OR plan, yes, I have to admit, there is a competition, there is a competition between us and Inspire. Because as you just heard, they also had a very positive quarter in quarter three. We have a lot of overlap with our clinical sites, and we were impacted from an overcapacity perspective.
Now, that also putting this in the right perspective, we reached 110 implants out of the 115. The other five or the five missing patients, they are identified. We know where they are and we also know what the OR dates will be and will look like. So I think we did very well already, 110 out of the 115, five identified. And in the coming weeks, they will also be implanted, and then the clock can start ticking for 12-month data.
Jonathan Block
Maybe just to pivot for the second question, when we think about the eventual US commercialization efforts, is there any change in strategy for you guys if you’re number two to market or [Technical Difficulty] here in the US? What changes, if anything? And maybe, Olivier, what can you do along the way to strengthen your hand, publication of papers, better sleep, et cetera, so that when you’re there and if you’re close to another player, you’re sort of all set to go from a commercialization, from a papers effort to really hit the ground running.
Olivier Taelman
First of all, based on the [Technical Difficulty] we’re feeling pretty confident that we will be the number two after Inspire on the market. Let me point this one out. Next, how are we preparing? Already we are preparing for future US strategy. As I mentioned, we already hired a market access director. She is already very intensely working together with payers. She’s reaching out to Medicare. So she’s really preparing and laying out already also the discussions on what kind of CPT codes we’ll be using. So all this work is going on. And part of this has already been done at the point to where we are today.
Next, over the coming months, we will talk further investing in hiring commercial leadership, so that we can start by having those people on board already start looking and building and further preparing our commercial structure will look like and even start reaching out in which sales people we would like to hire, what would be the type of profile that you would like to hire, and also where would we identify and where can we find this talent. So, that’s the second thing that you can expect in 2023.
And for the rest, the only thing that I can comment is that it’s sometimes nice to be second because somebody already paved the way in how to enter the market and how to introduce hypoglossal nerve stimulation with payers, and we definitely think we can benefit from this as well. So, today, our focus is on getting the last five implants done, having the clock starts ticking, getting regulatory approval somewhere in quarter two 2024, and then before, making sure that we do all the proactive activity needed to build a team already started by market access people and also by investing in hiring of sales leadership.
Operator
Our next question comes from Ross Osborn with Cantor Fitzgerald.
Ross Osborn
Congrats on the progress. So maybe looking at Switzerland, given it accounted for a significant amount of revenue during the quarter, are you able to disclose how many active sites you have there now?
Olivier Taelman
Sorry, active sites in Germany, you mean?
Ross Osborn
In Switzerland? Just curious, your level of presence there.
Olivier Taelman
In Germany, we have 32 active sites. And in Switzerland, we had – in quarter three, we had one active site that did implants. And we are expecting going forward to add three more. So 32 in Germany, 1 in Switzerland. For Q4, we are going up from one to four in Switzerland. And from 32 up to 40 in Germany.
Ross Osborn
Outside of Switzerland, how are conversations going in Belgium, Italy, Spain?
Olivier Taelman
Outside of Switzerland, we have Spain where we have reimbursement. And we also have Finland where we have reimbursement. When it comes to French, for example, because you know that we did some activity, I can only say that, I can only applaud Inspire for the progress on introducing hypoglossal nerve stim in such a difficult market like France. But I also know that this definitely will help us in building our case in France as well. So that’s where we stand for the moment. In Belgium, we also have submitted a reimbursement file, but we do not expect in the coming 18 to 24 months that we will be present there. And in the Netherlands, also there, we have seen reimbursement activities ongoing, but also there, from a planning perspective, we don’t expect anything in the coming 18 months.
Operator
Out our next question comes from Suraj Kalia with Oppenheimer.
Michael Wiederhorn
This is Mike on for Suraj. Curious picking up on the centers theme, what gave you the confidence to up your German year-end centers guide from over 35 to over 40 was more de novo or existing centers driving the growth, any company dynamics at play there or just a preference for Genio and bilateral stim?
Olivier Taelman
We saw a lot of momentum in Germany over the last 6 to 12 months. So, while being an increasing of commercial presence, increasing of presence at conferences, we saw that a lot of sites starting approaching us, even sites that we, honestly, in the beginning were not really aware that they had such a high interest in starting with hypoglossal nerve stimulation, and more specific starting with Nyxoah, with our Genio technology. So that is the explanation why we are increasing our number of sites. As you know, the total German market, also there in the overall penetration, is still low. So, the more sites you have that are enthusiastic that can deliver on high volume, I think the more beneficial this also will be in treating more patients and continue showing a strong market growth.
Michael Wiederhorn
I know you mentioned the German share was flat sequentially with the 28%, I believe, in 2Q. Do you have any targets for where it might be at the end of 2022 here?
Olivier Taelman
I really like this question because this is really a question where I’m extremely proud on my German team. We defined our commercial success from the get-go by saying we want to exit in 2022 as market leader in Germany. Today, we are roughly at 30% of market share, to your point. And to answer your question for Q4, and this is the challenge my German team and myself we are taking, we are still saying that we will exit Q4 as market leaders in Germany, and this has not changed. And I hope that, during our next earnings call, I can confirm this and you can be very certain that when we did this, there will be a very strong German celebration taking place. Because if we could do this, it would be an extremely strong performance. We see everything lined up to really accomplish this.
Michael Wiederhorn
Just thinking about what could possibly go wrong, any staffing shortages in the field today that are impacting PSG labs? And if so, is that impacting procedure volume? Or how is it?
Olivier Taelman
From a staffing perspective, also there, you see a lot of momentum. So we have today 15 German dedicated Nyxoah people, both in sales and marketing. Like we have centers that are reaching out to us, we’re also seeing that people started reaching out to us and saying, okay, guys, are you investing, are you hiring at this moment? So, there also we find this really excitement?
Next to this, I mentioned the Care4 program that we are rolling out. In a nutshell, what is this? I think with this Care4 program, we have a home sleep test that we are using and offering to sleep physicians in order to validate, in fact, existing PSGs and that will, of course, give also patients a shorter pathway directly to the Genio solution than when they have to wait and to undergo another PSG. So, we are really investing.
We also invest in the helpline that we have now in place. We are seeing that next to our ENT surgeons that we’re also working with them together also in strengthening their referral network. So, all these investments we are making, and that has really given us confidence that Germany will continue growing and that Nyxoah will also continue growing very strong and, of course, resulting in the market leader position.
Michael Wiederhorn
If I could just squeeze in one last numbers question for Loïc. I realize you don’t give guidance in general, but do you see 4Q gross margin kind of similar to the 65.3% we saw here at 3Q or might there be any component cost or other pressures from the 3Q supply disruption we saw?
Loïc Moreau
As you pointed out, in terms of gross margin, we have 65% in Q3. We expect this gross margin to remain fairly stable in the last quarter with additional volumes we are building at the moment. So, we don’t expect adverse gross margin impact from the supply disruption we had in Q3. We have resumed quite quickly. And we are now catching up in terms of production and batches.
Operator
At this time, I am showing no further questions. I would now like to turn the conference back to Olivier Taelman for closing remarks.
Olivier Taelman
Thank you. So once again, thank you all for joining and listening in and thank you all for your questions. The conclusion that I would like to make is that we see great traction in the DREAM study. We feel confident in showing our clinical data by fall 2023 And also not changing any of our timelines in getting regulatory approval in the US.
It was very inconvenient, the manufacturing issue we went through, but we solved it, we fixed it. We saw no impact, we saw no decrease in demand at all. We expect also a very strong Q4 in our commercial launch in Germany. So, also there.
So, once again, I can only thank the team. We will continue executing strong and we are looking forward to report on our Q4 quarter during the next earning call. Thank you all.
Operator
This concludes today’s conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
