    InspireMD released their financial numbers of the first quarter of the year and an update on its business so far in 2017.

    InspireMD (NYSEMKT:NSPR) released their financial numbers of the first quarter of the year and an update on its business so far in 2017.
    As quoted in the press release:

    James Barry, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of InspireMD, commented, “Earlier this year, we announced our transition away from a single distributor covering 18 European countries to a direct distribution model. In just a few short months, we have announced numerous distribution agreements covering markets across Europe, Asia and South America, fulfilling our commitment to relaunch both more broadly and more focused in Europe, as well as expanding our global footprint. We are extremely encouraged by the favorable response from our new partners and potential near-term future partners around the world. Not only have these distribution agreements expanded our geographic coverage, but in markets previously served by our former European distributor we are gaining deeper access into all four key clinical specialties that implant carotid stents.”
    Financial Results
    Revenue for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $569,000, compared to $563,000 during the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to an increase in sales of CGuard™ EPS as we entered new regional markets, despite the negative impact of the transition from our prior exclusive distribution partner for most of Europe. The transition to local distributors reflects an effort to broaden our sales efforts from only interventional neuroradiologists to include vascular surgeons, interventional cardiologists and interventional radiologists, as well. The increase in sales of CGuard™ EPS was partially offset by a decrease in MGuard™ Prime EPS associated with the trend of doctors increasingly using drug eluting stents (DES), rather than bare metal stents in STEMI patients. In the meantime, based on positive feedback from physicians, the Company is evaluating potential partners to combine MGuard™ Prime EPS with DES technology. Total operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 were $2,478,000, an increase of 18.2% compared to $2,096,000 for the same period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in sales and marketing expenses (primarily to support the commercialization of CGuard™ EPS), as well as an increase in corporate related expenses. Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 totaled $2,559,000, or $0.81 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $2,252,000, or $7.00 per basic and diluted share, in the same period in 2016.
    As of March 31, 2017, cash and cash equivalents were $8,572,000, compared to $7,516,000 as of December 31, 2016.
