Management to Host Webcast and Conference Call Today At 4:30 p.m. ET

HeartBeam, Inc. (NASDAQ: BEAT), a cardiac technology company that has developed the first and only 3D-vector electrocardiogram (VECG) platform for heart attack detection anytime, anywhere, has reported its financial and operational results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Third Quarter and Subsequent 2022 Operational Highlights

  • Announced the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) application submission of HeartBeam AIMI platform, seeking approval for the Company’s proprietary VECG technology to aid in diagnosis of heart attack in $500 million total addressable market
  • Broadened product portfolio pipeline with smartwatch connectivity supporting a daily multi-hour heart monitoring solution, leveraging the HeartBeam AIMIGo platform to address the multibillion-dollar global market for detection of atrial arrhythmias
  • Granted patent for signal transformation from VECG to 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG), allowing the HeartBeam AIMIGo credit card-sized device to enable a 12-lead ECG anytime, anywhere
  • Granted patent for 12-lead ECG patch monitor intended for detection of heart attacks and complex cardiac arrhythmias, opening a pathway to a disruptive ischemia and arrhythmia detection via 12-lead ECG patch product
  • Expanded the addressable patient population for the Company’s HeartBeam AIMI software platform to provide access to a broader patient population in the emergency care setting
  • Appointed Peter J. Fitzgerald, MD, PhD, as Chief Medical Officer, a renowned Stanford cardiologist who brings deep clinical, research, and industry expertise to the executive team

Management Commentary

“Throughout the third quarter we progressed on our commercialization pathway toward a series of important milestones, including the FDA 510(k) application submission of our HeartBeam AIMI product,” said Branislav Vajdic, PhD, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of HeartBeam. “We continue to have strong conviction in our HeartBeam AIMI software platform technology and AIMIGo, our end-to-end telemedicine solution, and their potential to offer more accurate heart attack detection and to expedite treatment. As we look toward FDA clearance for HeartBeam AIMI, we are also making significant progress with our core product, the AIMIGo as we prepare for FDA submission in late fourth quarter of this year.

“The issuance of two patents during the quarter provided further intellectual property protection for the HeartBeam 3D VECG platform: A patent for a 12-lead ECG patch monitor intended for detection of heart attacks and complex cardiac arrhythmias opens a pathway to offering ischemia and arrhythmia detection via an ECG patch. The innovation builds on our growing intellectual property portfolio enabling 12-lead ECG diagnostics outside of a medical setting. The technology offers the potential to bring a level of diagnostic accuracy consistent with the current 12-lead ECG standard of care and its ischemia detection capability could have a disruptive effect on the ECG patch market.

“A second patent that enables generation of a synthesized 12-lead ECG by the HeartBeam AIMIGo credit card-sized device opens a pathway for a patient to record a set of signals using HeartBeam AIMIGo outside of a medical setting with a diagnostic synthesized 12-lead ECG immediately transmitted to a clinician for review and diagnosis. Unlike single-lead ECG products currently in the marketplace such as other credit card sized devices or smartwatches, the HeartBeam technology is intended to quickly and accurately help clinicians identify a heart attack. This could reduce the critical time to intervention for heart attack patients, saving lives and reducing healthcare costs by ruling out a heart attack and reducing the number of emergency room visits.

“Operationally, during the quarter we welcomed Peter J. Fitzgerald, MD, PhD, as Chief Medical Officer, and Ken Persen to the role of Chief Technology Officer. Peter is one of the world’s preeminent opinion leaders in cardiology and digital health and we expect that he will play a major role in defining best paths to adoption, clinical strategies, and partnerships to advance our products in the market. Ken has extensive technology, executive and start-up experience in healthcare and cardiac device industries. He will lead the overall technology strategy and development of the HeartBeam AIMI and AIMIGo platforms.

“Looking ahead, our commercialization path is on track with our AIMIGo 3D vector ECG first-generation product expected to be ready for FDA submission in the fourth quarter of this year, along with FDA clearance for HeartBeam AIMI. Our commercial team has continued to engage in positive discussions with strategic institutions, including academic centers, regional healthcare systems, and regional community hospital systems. We look forward to providing updates on our progress in the months ahead,” concluded Dr. Vajdic.
