MIAMI, Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InspireMD, Inc. (Nasdaq: NSPR), developer of the CGuard® Prime carotid stent system for the prevention of stroke, today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025.
Recent Business Highlights:

- Commenced commercial launch of the CGuard Prime carotid stent system in the U.S. Market
- Raised $58 million in gross proceeds from an equity private placement and the exercise of existing warrants to advance growth initiatives

- Added Raymond W. Cohen to Board of Directors
Marvin Slosman, CEO of InspireMD, commented: "Over the last few months, our team has executed the most significant set of milestones in InspireMD's history, as we obtained approval for our proprietary CGuard Prime carotid stent system in the U.S. and began its commercial rollout. These transformational milestones were years in the making and validate our vision and execution. Backed by a fully trained, world-class commercial team, we are now focused on scaling with discipline and precision to unlock the full potential of our platform."
"Our forward momentum is further supported by the recent addition of $58 million in gross proceeds to our balance sheet, evidencing clear confidence from investors who share our conviction in InspireMD's future. We are entering a new era of growth, and we are laser-focused on establishing our breakthrough technology as the standard of care in the treatment of carotid artery disease and the prevention of stroke. We look forward to bringing meaningful impact to physicians and patients across the U.S."
Financial Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2025
For the second quarter of 2025, total revenue increased by $39,000, or 2.3%, to $1,778,000, from $1,739,000 during the second quarter of 2024. This increase was driven by continued adoption of the Company's CGuard technology in existing markets and the positive impact of exchange rates offset by decreased revenue from Russia, and distributors managing CGuard inventory levels in anticipation of CGuard Prime approval in Europe.
Gross profit (revenue less cost of revenues) for the second quarter of 2025 decreased by $18,000, or 5.4%, to $313,000, from $331,000, during the second quarter of 2024.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2025 were $13,332,000, an increase of $4,741,000, or 55.2% compared to $8,591,000 for the second quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily due to higher salaries and share-based compensation tied to U.S. sales force expansion ahead of FDA approval. Additional increases stemmed from CGuard Prime launch preparation, U.S. facility rent, and CFO severance fees.
Financial expense, net for the second quarter of 2025 was $132,000, a decrease of $483,000 compared to financial income of $351,000 for the second quarter of 2024. This decrease was primarily due to the impact of foreign exchange and less interest income from investments in marketable securities and money market funds.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2025 totaled $13,151,000 or $0.26 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $7,909,000, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2024.
As of June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities were $19,374,000 compared to $34,637,000 as of December 31, 2024.
Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenue increased by $57,000, or 1.8%, to $3,307,000, from $3,250,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was driven by continued adoption of our CGuard technology in existing markets, offset by decreased revenue from Russia, the impact of exchange rates, and distributors managing CGuard inventory levels in anticipation of CGuard Prime approval in Europe.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, gross profit (revenue less cost of revenues) decreased by 2.8%, or $18,000, to $605,000, compared to $623,000 for the same period in 2024.
Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, were $25,084,000, an increase of $8,787,000, or 53.9% compared to $16,297,000 for six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was primarily due to higher salaries and share-based compensation tied to U.S. sales force expansion ahead of FDA approval. Additional increases stemmed from development and regulatory activities for SwitchGuard NPS, CGuard Prime launch preparation, U.S. facility rent, promotional activities and CFO severance fees.
Financial income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $162,000, a decrease of $571,000 compared to financial income of $733,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in income from investments in marketable securities and money market funds, as well as an increase in financial expenses resulting from exchange rate fluctuations.
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025, totaled $24,317,000 or $0.48 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $14,941,000, or $0.43 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2024.
