PLEASANTON, Calif., Nov. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Movano Health (Nasdaq: MOVE), a purpose-driven healthcare solutions company at the intersection of medtech and consumer devices and makers of the Evie Ring, reported financial results for the three months ending September 30, 2023 and provided a business update.
Key highlights from the third quarter and recent weeks include:
The Company will begin selling its first product, the Evie Ring, on November 20, ahead of Black Friday. Customers will be able to place an order for the Evie Ring exclusively through https://eviering.com/ for $269 and no additional subscription fees or monthly costs. Customers can elect to receive a complimentary sizing kit to find the right fit. The Company expects to begin shipping rings to customers before the end of the year. In order to drive sales of the Evie Ring, Movano Health has been executing a comprehensive marketing campaign. The Company launched a new commercial website for the Evie Ring on November 6, which offers a detailed and interactive look at the female first features and benefits of the Evie solution. Since then, the site has seen more than 200,000 visits. Movano Health’s marketing campaign is focused on converting its engaged lead list of over 120,000 consumers and driving new conversion traffic to the site throughout the Q4 2023 holiday shopping period and beyond by leveraging press reviews, influencer content and new creative.
In a recent 44-person blood pressure clinical study, Movano Health’s proprietary 4 x 6.7 mm System-on-a-Chip (SoC) and prototype solution demonstrated a level of accuracy within the standards recognized by the FDA for blood pressure monitoring devices. Since implementing the Company’s proprietary SoC into clinical studies, which Movano Health spent over five years developing and miniaturizing, the Company has seen a material improvement in the accuracy of its blood pressure measurements. Movano Health is planning additional multi-week clinical trials both in house and with third party investigators to determine whether periodic calibration is required and refine its AI models on an individual patient basis. Subsequently, Movano Health intends to conduct a pivotal trial for its 510(k) submission to the FDA to commercialize a cuffless blood pressure wearable device.
Following the submission of its 510(k) application to the FDA for the Evie Ring’s pulse oximeter in July 2023, Movano Health has since received a letter from the FDA requesting additional information, which was in line with the Company’s expectations. The Company has been in communication with the agency and plans to submit its formal reply letter to the FDA in Q1 2024. If clearance is received, it has the potential to unlock a significant enterprise opportunity with partners across healthcare.
Movano Health has priced a $3.6 million underwritten public offering of 4,235,304 shares of its common stock. The public offering price, before the underwriters’ discount and commissions, for each share of common stock is $0.85. All of the securities in the underwritten public offering are being sold by the Company. The Company has granted the underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 15% of shares of common stock sold in the offering at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount. The offering is expected to close on November 17, 2023.
“We believe we’ve set the stage for the successful introduction of Evie into the market on November 20 and are excited to embark on this new phase of our journey as we shift from pre-revenue to a revenue-generating company,” said John Mastrototaro, CEO of Movano Health. “The timing for such a product couldn’t be better with increased interest in medical grade technologies for home use and a strong focus on women’s health and empowerment. With its thoughtful design, accurate data and meaningful insights, we believe the Evie Ring holds immense potential for our company, our stakeholders and the health and wellness of our future customers.”
“In addition to focusing on the launch of the Evie Ring, we are also building a high-value healthcare solutions roadmap to commercialize cuffless blood pressure and noninvasive glucose monitoring solutions that leverage our SoC,” said Michael Leabman, founder and CTO of Movano Health. “During a Q3 2023 blood pressure clinical study, our proprietary SoC and prototype solution demonstrated a level of accuracy within the standards recognized by the FDA for blood pressure monitoring devices. This was a significant breakthrough for us, and while there’s more work to do before we can file for FDA clearance, we’ve taken a major step forward on the path to commercialization of a cuffless blood pressure monitoring device.”
