Guidance does not include revenue from Motiva Implants® in the United States, which is expected in 2024.\n\n\n\nGross profit for the first quarter was $24.4 million, or 65.6% of revenue, compared to $30.1 million, or 64.7% of revenue, in the year-ago period.\n\n\n\nFirst quarter loss from operations was $8.8 million compared to a loss of $22.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and $8.2 million in the year-ago period.\n\n\n\nAdjusted EBITDA loss of $3.7 million compared to a loss of $17.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and a loss of $4.0 million in the year-ago period.\n\n\n\nCash balance of $73.0 million as of March 31, 2024.\n\n\n\nPresented 4-year results from Motiva® U.S. IDE study at The Aesthetic Meeting on May 2.\n\n\n\nContinued progress with FDA on approval of Motiva Implants.\n\n\n\n“We are off to a strong start in 2024.
