100% procedural success rate in a 30 patient study using the new CGuard^TM Embolic Prevention System with no procedural related complications and zero strokes at 6-month follow up

Companion Editorial Highlights Need for More Effective Management of Carotid Artery Stenosis for Stroke Prevention

BOSTON, MA – October 17, 2016 – InspireMD, Inc. (NYSE MKT: NSPR, NSPR.WS) (“InspireMD” or the “Company”), a leader in embolic prevention systems (EPS), neurovascular devices and thrombus management technologies, today announced the online publication of positive clinical data in a new independent study performed by Prof. Christian Wissgott, M.D., entitled “Clinical Results and Mechanical Properties of the Carotid CGUARD^TM Double-Layered Embolic Prevention Stent,” which evaluated the Company’s CGuard™ EPS in patients with symptomatic or high-grade  asymptomatic internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis. The study, published in the Journal of Endovascular Therapy online-ahead-of-print, is available digitally on the journal’s OnlineFirst website section. The OnlineFirst section also includes an accompanying editorial written by Prof. Piotr Musialek, M.D., entitled “Carotid Artery Revascularization for Stroke Prevention: A New Era,” which underscores the use of CGuard^TM EPS as a novel approach to potentially reducing the risk of stroke by avoiding the risks associated with conventional carotid stenting.

Prof. Christian Wissgott, M.D., Assistant Director at Westkustenklinikum, Heide, Germany, independently evaluated CGuard™ properties against other carotid stents and conducted a study in 30 consecutive patients with Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis (ICA) disease. The average stenosis of the treated arteries was 84% with a mean lesion length of 17 mm.  The majority of the patients (83%) had symptomatic disease. Patients were followed for six months post-procedure and were assessed using a number of variables, including stroke, change in modified Rankin Scale (mRS), CGuard^TM EPS patency, and new ipsilateral lesions as measured by DW-MRI. Key findings from the six month study included:

• 100% success in implanting the CGuard^TM EPS;
• No peri- or post-procedural complications;
• No deaths, major adverse events, minor or major strokes, or new neurologic symptoms during the six months following the procedure;
• Modified Rankin Scale improved for the symptomatic patients from 1.56 prior to the procedure to 0 afterwards;
• All vessels treated with the CGuard^TM system remained patent (open) at six months; and
• DW-MRI performed in 19 of 30 patients found no new ipsilateral lesions after 30 days and after six months compared with the baseline DW-MRI studies.

Additionally, based on engineering evaluations, the study concluded that the CGuard^TM EPS provides a high radial force and strong support in stenotic lesions, and its structure, in contrast to some other stents, adapted well to changes in vessel diameter and direction. The MicroNet™ mesh of the CGuard^TM did not cause any changes to specific mechanical parameters of the underlying stent.

“The novel construction of the CGuard^TM EPS prevented post-procedural embolic events in this series of patients undergoing routine carotid artery stenting,” said Prof. Wissgott. “The CGuard^TM EPS is easy and safe to implant because it more readily adapts to the shape and diameter of the vessel wall versus other carotid artery stents. Importantly, none of the patients in this series experienced any complications or strokes as a result of the procedure or in the following six months. Consequently, I believe that the CGuard^TM EPS is an important new treatment option for both symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis patients.”

 
Key points highlighted in the companion editorial from Piotr Musialek, M.D., DPhil, FESC, Prof. in the Jagiellonian University Department of Cardiac & Vascular Diseases include:

• 85% of strokes occur without warning signs, raising questions about the validity of “watchful waiting” in patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis;
• Novel stent technology ensures viability of endovascular approaches to carotid revascularization in both primary and secondary stroke prevention;
• Consistent clinical evidence is accumulating that demonstrates that mesh covered stents, with InspireMD’s CGuard^TM EPS in particular, prevent post-procedural embolic events; and
• Data in Wissgott et al is consistent with the positive outcomes reported in all other clinical trials of CGuard™.

“Given the risks associated with prior carotid stent options to date, many physicians prefer to treat their asymptomatic patients with medication-only rather than medication plus interventional plaque pacification,” said Prof. Musialek. He continued, “The growing body of data for the CGuard^TM EPS demonstrates that this novel system may have a much lower risk of peri- or post-procedural complications and embolic events. Prof. Wissgott’s study and the results of the CARENET and PARADIGM 101 studies demonstrate that CGuard^TM EPS may help to reduce the risk of stroke for asymptomatic patients and provide them with improved long-term cerebrovascular outcomes. There is little to no doubt today that a new carotid revascularization era has arrived.”

About CGuard™ EPS

The CGuard™ EPS is designed to prevent peri-procedural and late embolization by trapping potential emboli against the arterial wall while maintaining excellent perfusion to the external carotid artery and branch vessels.

MicroNet™ is a bio-stable mesh woven from a single strand of 20 micron Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET).

CGuard™ EPS is CE Marked and not approved for sale in the U.S. by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration at this time.

Carotid stenosis is a narrowing of the carotid arteries, the major arteries that supply blood and oxygen to the brain. This narrowing results from a buildup of plaque inside the blood vessel and reduces blood flow to the brain. The presence of plaque in the blood vessel can also cause the development of blood clots, which may also reduce blood flow to the brain. In some cases, plaque may rupture or dislodge from the vessel wall and block smaller downstream arteries. Patients with carotid stenosis have an increased risk of stroke as a result of cerebral embolism and decreased blood flow to the brain.

Patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis are typically treated by placement of a stent inside the blood vessel in order to re-open the carotid artery and improve blood flow to the brain. InspireMD’s CGuard^TM EPS uses the company’s patented MicroNet™ technology to provide the revascularization benefits of a stent with a mesh “safety net” that secures the plaque against the blood vessel’s arterial wall and thereby prevents plaque and other debris from flowing through the stent’s scaffold.

 Company to Host Conference Call Today at 4:30pm ET

BOSTON, MA – August 9, 2016 – InspireMD, Inc. (NYSE MKT: NSPR, NSPR.WS) (“InspireMD” or the “Company”), a leader in embolic prevention systems (EPS), neurovascular devices and thrombus management technologies, today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016, and provided a business update.

“We continue to see steady traction in sales of our CGUARD™ Embolic Prevention System, and are encouraged by the solid growth in second quarter sales for this product versus the same quarter last year. Notably, sales in Italy, one of the first countries in which we launched CGuard, grew more than 190% this quarter compared to the same quarter last year, and 20% compared to the first quarter of 2016,” said James Barry, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of InspireMD. “In addition, our MicroNet™ technology continues to gain recognition among industry experts, as evidenced by the selection of the investigator-initiated PARADIGM study for presentation in the late-breaking clinical trial session at the EuroPCR 2016 Conference, highlighting the clinical efficacy of routine use of the CGuard™ system, including use in high risk patients.”

“The closing of our $14.6 million financing and recent debt restructuring provide us with the financial flexibility to advance the commercialization of CGuard™ EPS and MGuard Prime™ EPS in key markets,” Dr. Barry continued. “We also continue to advance our robust product pipeline with the goal of utilizing our proprietary MicroNet™ technology for other indications, including the development of our NGuard™ Flow Diverter for an anticipated 2017 CE Mark submission.”

Recent Highlights:

COMMERCIAL

• Sales growth of CGuard^TM increased by 112% in the second quarter of 2016 versus same quarter last year.
• Continued strong sales growth of CGuard^TM in Italy, which grew 194% compared to the second quarter of 2015, and 20% compared to the first quarter of 2016.

   

REGULATORY / CLINICAL / PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

• CGuard^TM’s evaluation in the investigator-initiated PARADIGM-101 highlighted in the late-breaking clinical trial session at EuroPCR 2016 in Paris, France. This study found that CGuard may be a safe and effective treatment option for endovascular management in more than 90% of all-comer patients with carotid artery stenosis who require treatment.
   

 FINANCIAL

• Closing of a $14.6 million public offering of approximately 442,424 shares of Series B Convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase up to 44,242,400 shares of common stock.
• Restructuring of an outstanding loan with Hercules Capital, including four principal payment deferrals which began May 1st, 2016.

EXECUTIVE APPOINTMENT

• In June, James Barry, Ph.D. was appointed President and CEO of InspireMD. Prior to this appointment, Dr. Barry served as InspireMD’s Chief Operating Officer for two years. For more than 18 years, Dr. Barry held senior roles at Boston Scientific Corporation, which included overseeing the development of Boston Scientific’s Taxus™ stent which became the number one selling drug eluting stent worldwide.

Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $0.5 million compared to $0.7 million during the same period in 2015. The decrease was primarily the result of an expected decline in sales of MGuard™ Prime EPS associated with the trend of doctors increasingly using drug eluting stents rather than bare metal stents in STEMI patients. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in sales of $0.2 million of CGuard™ EPS, the Company’s carotid product.

The Company’s gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $62,000 compared to a gross loss of $0.2 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in gross profit was largely attributable to a decrease of write-offs of MGuard™ Prime EPS inventory and a decrease in labor and material costs attributable to lower revenues, offset by a decrease in product revenues.

Total operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 were $1.9 million, a decrease of 44.6% compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction of compensation related expenses and other savings associated with our ongoing cost reduction plan.

The loss from operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $1.8 million, a decrease of 49.6% compared to a loss of $3.6 million for the same period in 2015.

 Financial expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 were $0.2 million, a decrease of 44.1% compared to the same period in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in interest expense of our outstanding loan.

The net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 totaled $2.0 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.9 million, or $0.51 per basic and diluted share, in the same period in 2015.

Non-GAAP net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $1.7 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, a decrease of 41.6% compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $2.9 million, or $0.38 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2015.  The non-GAAP net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 primarily excludes $0.3 million of share-based compensation.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Financial Results

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $1.1 million compared to $1.2 million during the same period in 2015. The decrease was predominantly driven by an expected decline in sales of MGuard™ Prime EPS associated with the trend of doctors increasingly using drug eluting stents rather than bare metal stents in STEMI patients.

The Company’s gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $0.1 million compared to a gross loss of $0.3 million for the same period in 2015. This increase in gross profit was largely attributable to a decrease of write-offs of MGuard™ Prime EPS inventory, offset by expenses related to the underutilization of our manufacturing resources.

Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $4.3 million, a decrease of 47.5% compared to $8.2 million for the same period in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction of compensation related expenses, restructuring and impairment costs and other savings associated with our ongoing cost reduction plan.

The loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $4.2 million, a decrease of 50.5% compared to a loss of $8.5 million for the same period in 2015.

Financial expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $0.4 million, a decrease of 36.1% compared to the same period in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in interest expense of our outstanding loan.

The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $4.6 million, or $0.49 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $9.1 million, or $1.44 per basic and diluted share, in the same period in 2015.

Non-GAAP net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $3.5 million, or $0.38 per basic and diluted share, a decrease of 47.3% compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $6.7 million, or $1.07 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2015.  The non-GAAP net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016 primarily excludes $1.0 million of share-based compensation. The non-GAAP net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2015 primarily excludes $2.0 million of share-based compensation and $0.3 million of expense related to an impairment of a royalties buyout asset.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of June 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents were $0.9 million, compared to $3.3 million as of December 31, 2015.
