(Nasdaq: SWAV), a pioneer in the development and commercialization of Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) to treat complex calcified cardiovascular disease, today reported financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Recent Highlights
- Recognized revenue of $65.2 million for the third quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 233% from the same period in 2020
- DISRUPT PAD III observational study results of peripheral IVL featured as a late breaking presentation at the VIVA21 conference

- Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) increased payment for above the knee peripheral IVL procedures as part of the calendar year 2022 Medicare Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) final rule
“I have been encouraged to see the consistent clinical acceptance and penetration of IVL, as shown by our solid results in the third quarter, which were once again led by the broadening adoption of coronary IVL in the U.S.,” said Doug Godshall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Shockwave Medical. “In addition, the ongoing generation of clinical data to support the use of IVL across indications, lesion types and demographics speaks volumes about the incredible consistency and reliability of IVL in treating these most complex calcified patients.”
Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $65.2 million, a 233% increase from $19.6 million in the same period of 2020. The growth was primarily driven by the launch of the coronary product, Shockwave C2, in the U.S. in February, continued recovery from the pandemic impact and increased adoption of Shockwave products.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2021 was $54.2 million compared to $14.3 million for the third quarter of 2020. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2021 was 83%, as compared to 73% in the third quarter of 2020. Increase in gross margin was driven by product mix along with continued improvement in manufacturing productivity and process efficiencies.
Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2021 were $51.4 million, a 90% increase from $27.1 million in the third quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily driven by salesforce expansion in the U.S. and higher headcount to support the growth of the business.
Net income for the third quarter of 2021 was $1.9 million, compared to a net loss of $12.9 million in the same period of 2020. Basic net income per share for the period was $0.06. Diluted net income per share for the period was $0.05.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $183 million as of September 30, 2021.
