(Nasdaq: ATRC), a leading innovator in treatments for atrial fibrillation (Afib) and left atrial appendage (LAA) management, announced preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2020.\n\n“We are pleased with our fourth quarter and full-year results which reflect the resiliency and strength of our team, as well as the overarching unmet need in our core markets.

Additionally, we are in a unique position of igniting multiple catalysts in 2021, including the hybrid Convergent procedure, EnCompass® Clamp, Cryo Nerve Block therapy expansion, and aMAZE™ clinical trial data, leading to significant market expansion and accelerated and durable growth rates over the long-term.”\n\nPreliminary and Unaudited 2020 Financial Results\nPreliminary, unaudited revenue for fourth quarter 2020 is expected to be approximately $57.7 million, reflecting a decrease of approximately 6% over the fourth quarter of 2019 (-7% on a constant currency basis).
