Management Commentary

Jennifer Ernst, CEO of Tivic, commented, “Building on work over the last three quarters, the company completed a strategic reset that involved reductions in operating overhead, internal reorganization, and a honing of our focus to critical strategic areas. As a result, we significantly reduced net operating loss and improved gross profits.

“This quarter, we began to see continuous improvements pay off as we build a stronger base for the company to grow from moving forward. With increasing margins, quarter-over-quarter revenue growth, and the launch of our first concerted healthcare professional (HCP) focused marketing initiative, we look forward to the final quarter of 2023.”

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Review

Revenue for the third quarter 2023 was $282 thousand, a decrease of $195 thousand (or 40.9%) compared to $477 thousand in the same period 2022, primarily due to the price increase implemented in the second quarter resulting in an 58% decrease in unit sales, offset by a 54% increase in the per unit average sales price.

Cost of sales for the third quarter 2023 was $174 thousand, a decrease of $240 thousand (or 58%) compared to $414 thousand in the same period 2022. The period over period decrease was primarily due to decreased sales volume.

Gross profit for the third quarter 2023 was $108 thousand, an increase of $45 thousand (or 71%) compared to $63 thousand in the same period 2022. The increase was primarily due to price increases, optimization of the supply-chain and product design, and the sales volume over which fixed and semi-fixed costs were allocated.

Total operating expenses were $1.9 million for the third quarter 2023, compared to $2.6 million in the same period 2022. The decrease of $779 thousand, or 30%, is attributable to lower consulting and professional fee expenses as well as other reduced general administrative expenses.

As of September 30, 2023, the company had $5.2 million of cash and cash equivalents.

The company’s MD&A and consolidated financial statements for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023 will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2023 with the company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
