ENDRA Life Sciences Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

Conference call begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time today

ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ: NDRA), a pioneer of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS®), today reports financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and provides a business update. Highlights from the third quarter of 2023 and recent weeks include:

  • Shared positive TAEUS clinical data at the Steatotic Liver Disease Summit 2023 hosted by the European Association for the Study of the Liver. The company shared positive study findings in its second peer-reviewed clinical abstract, titled "Thermoacoustic assessment of fatty liver disease - a clinical feasibility study.” The results included 45 patient scans comparing TAEUS liver fat fraction estimates to MRI-PDFF (Magnetic Resonance Imaging Proton Density Fat Fraction), which is the current gold standard for clinical measurement of liver fat fraction. The study data yielded sensitivity of 95%, specificity of 77% and negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.95. TAEUS estimates of liver fat fraction were strongly correlated to MRI-PDFF scores with a Pearson correlation coefficient of r=0.87.



  • Showcased the TAEUS system at major hepatology, endocrinology and radiology clinical conferences in the U.S. and Europe. The ENDRA team met with prospective customers, industry leaders and key partners at five major clinical conferences, including most recently The Liver Meeting by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases. During The Liver Meeting, ENDRA also hosted an offsite panel discussion with multidisciplinary key opinion leaders in the fields of hepatology, endocrinology and radiology to share their unique perspectives on managing Metabolic-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD). The commercial team continued to generate awareness for the TAEUS system by participating in eight industry conferences year-to-date.



  • Achieved an intellectual property milestone with 70 issued patents globally. During the third quarter of 2023 and recent weeks, ENDRA was issued six additional patents, including two in the U.S., two in Europe and two in China. The company is actively exploring licensing opportunities in non-core indications to augment the value of its growing intellectual property portfolio.



  • ENDRA's De Novo request advanced to the next stage of review at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). On August 14, 2023, ENDRA submitted a De Novo request for its TAEUS liver system to the FDA and two weeks later the FDA informed ENDRA that its submission was entering the substantive review period. The De Novo pathway provides a means to classify novel medical devices for which there is no legally marketed predicate device and if granted, will strengthen TAEUS’ competitive position with its distinctive, patent-protected capabilities as a non-invasive point-of-care tool to aid in the characterization of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD).

“We are confident in the progress of our TAEUS system's De Novo submission, now in substantive review with the FDA. We look forward to ongoing collaboration with the Agency with the goal of achieving a favorable regulatory decision. In Europe, our growing body of clinical data is boosting commercial efforts, and we are on track to secure the first commercial orders for our technology in the near-term,” said Francois Michelon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ENDRA. “As treatments for steatotic liver disease advance toward potential FDA approval in early 2024, the need for and importance of ENDRA’s non-invasive TAEUS system to assess liver fat becomes increasingly clear.”

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2023 were $3.1 million, compared with $3.4 million in the third quarter in 2022. The decrease was mainly due to lower research and development and sales and marketing expenses.

Net loss in the third quarter of 2023 was $3.1 million, or $0.40 per share, compared with a net loss of $3.4 million, or $1.09 per share, in the third quarter of 2022.

Cash and cash equivalents were $3.3 million as of September 30, 2023. In the third quarter, the company raised $1.2 million in gross proceeds from the sale of common stock through its at-the-market (ATM) equity facility.

Conference Call and Webcast

Management will host a conference call and webcast today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time to discuss these results, provide an update on recent corporate developments and answer questions.

About ENDRA Life Sciences Inc.

ENDRA Life Sciences is the pioneer of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS®), a ground-breaking technology which characterizes tissue similar to an MRI, but at 1/50th the cost and at the point of patient care. TAEUS® is designed to work in concert with the more than 700,000 ultrasound systems in use globally today. TAEUS® is initially focused on the measurement of fat in the liver as a means to assess and monitor steatotic liver disease (SLD) (formerly known as NAFLD-NASH), a chronic liver disease spectrum that affects over two billion people globally, and for which there are no practical diagnostic tools. Beyond the liver, ENDRA is exploring several other clinical applications of TAEUS®, including visualization of tissue temperature during energy-based surgical procedures.
