LYON, France, Nov. 21, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EDAP TMS SA (Nasdaq:EDAP), the global leader in therapeutic ultrasound, announced today financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Marc Oczachowski, EDAP's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our revenues for the first nine months of 2012 reflected the robust sales growth of our renewed lithotripsy device platform. We continue to pursue sales and marketing initiatives around the globe and recently strengthened our U.S. sales team with the appointment of a Senior Sales Manager experienced in lithotripsy. The Company showed 13% revenue growth at the end of the third quarter of 2012, as compared to last year, and we foresee additional positive momentum for the remainder of this year. As we approach the last week of November, our replenished device backlog is comprised of 19 lithotripsy devices and three Ablatherm-HIFU devices."
Recent Developments
In October 2012, EDAP appointed Bill Brown as U.S. based Senior Sales Manager. With more than two decades in the medical field and over ten years in lithotripsy device sales, Mr. Brown joins EDAP's U.S. team to enhance and strengthen the EDAP U.S. expansion program.
Also in October, urologists with long-term Ablatherm-HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) experience participated in a panel discussions at Third International Symposium on Focused Ultrasound, in Washington, D.C. On two separate panels, they outlined their experience using ultrasound guided Ablatherm-HIFU to treat prostate cancer and highlighted Ablatherm-HIFU's substantial clinical track record, with more than 32,000 prostate cancer treatments successfully performed. Video from Professor Christian Chaussy's presentation regarding his 15 years of experience using ultrasound guided Ablatherm-HIFU to treat prostate cancer will be available shortly on the Symposium's website at http://www.fusfoundation.org/Symposium-2012/focused-ultrasound-2012.
In early November, EDAP held a productive pre-PMA meeting with the U.S. FDA to discuss the PMA submission for the Company's Ablatherm-HIFU Phase II/III clinical trial for the indication of low risk, localized prostate cancer. Based on the guidance received in this FDA interaction, EDAP is finalizing its PMA file for submission in January 2013.

About EDAP TMS SA
EDAP TMS SA develops and markets Ablatherm(R), the most advanced and clinically proven choice for high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment of localized prostate cancer. HIFU treatment is shown to be a minimally invasive and effective treatment option with a low occurrence of side effects. Ablatherm-HIFU is generally recommended for patients with localized prostate cancer (stages T1-T2) who are not candidates for surgery or who prefer an alternative option, or for patients who failed radiotherapy treatment. Approved in Europe as a treatment for prostate cancer, Ablatherm-HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is currently undergoing evaluation in a multi-center U.S. Phase II/III clinical trial under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) granted by the FDA, the ENLIGHT U.S. clinical
study. The Company also is developing this technology for the potential treatment of certain other types of tumors. EDAP TMS SA also produces and commercializes medical equipment (the Sonolith(R) range) for treatment of urinary tract stones using extra-corporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL). For more information on the Company, please visit http://www.edap-tms.com, and http://www.hifu-planet.com.
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this press release may contain forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including matters not yet known to us or not currently considered material by us, and there can be no assurance that anticipated events will occur or that the objectives set out will actually be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated in the forward-looking statements include, among others the uncertainties of the U.S. FDA approval process, the clinical status and market acceptance of our HIFU devices and the continued market potential for our lithotripsy device. Factors that may cause such a difference also may include, but are not limited to, those described in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and in particular, in the sections "Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F. Ablatherm-HIFU treatment is in clinical trials, but not FDA-approved or marketed in the United States.
