“Tenon Medical kicked off 2022 achieving a tremendous milestone with our transition to a public company listing on the Nasdaq Capital Markets subsequent to quarter end,” commented Steve Foster, CEO and President of Tenon Medical. “This milestone comes on the heels of the significant accomplishments the Company has achieved to date; inclusive of finalizing our commercial ready product, the CATAMARAN SIJ Fusion System and the completion of our first successful cases. Additionally, it’s important to note, we have hosted a total of 9 physician workshop events all of which have provided remarkably positive feedback as the clinician community has been looking for the next generation device. Physicians demand an authentic arthrodesis procedure that includes prepping, fixating, and grafting the joint. We believe the CATAMARAN System delivers on these requirements.”
Rich Ferrari, Founder and Chairman of Tenon added, “We formed Tenon in 2012 to develop the CATAMARAN SIJ Fusion System designed to fuse one or both sacroiliac joints to treat SI-Joint dysfunction that very often causes lower back pain. Studies indicate that 15 to 30% of all lower back pain is associated with the SI-Joint. We believe Tenon is uniquely positioned to grow the adoption of the CATAMARAN delivering pain relief to individuals while driving significant value creation for our shareholders.”

First Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue was $71,000 in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of 373%, compared to $15,000 in the comparable year ago period. The increase was primarily due to an 80% increase in the number of surgical procedures in which the CATAMARAN System was used.
Gross loss was $(204,000) compared to a gross profit of $4,000 in the comparable year ago quarter, due to the increase in the operations overhead and spending. Gross margin percentage decreased from 27% to (283)%, driven by higher operations overhead, spending, and partially offset by higher revenue per procedure resulting from an amended and restated national distribution agreement.
Operating losses totaled $2.1 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to a loss of $189,000 in the first quarter 2021. The increase in operating expenses was a result of the creation of an infrastructure to support future growth and the ongoing transition to an operating company.
Net loss was $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared a loss of $201,000 in the same period of 2021 and expect to incur additional losses in the future.
As of March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents totaled $4.7 million. The Company believes that the net proceeds from the initial public offering, together with existing cash and cash equivalents, will enable Tenon Medical to fund hiring additional personnel, product development and sales and marketing activities including clinician training and clinical marketing.
