MicroPort Orthopedics reported orthopedic revenue of USD $86.6 million, -23.6% vs. 1H19. With only about 11% of its revenue coming from the domestic Chinese market, the company had significant exposure to COVID-related procedure deferrals in the first half. These deferrals offset better than expected momentum at the beginning of the year. May brought signs of recovery for MicroPort’s global sales, and North America returned to growth by June.
As company sales slowed during the pandemic, MicroPort focused on strengthening its product portfolio by designing, developing and submitting several new products for approval. The GLADIATOR™ cementless femoral stem obtained FDA clearance in the United States. At the same time, the PROCOTYL™ P acetabular cup system and Evolution™ NitrX™ Medial-Pivot Knee received approval under the CE Mark. ICE instruments for supporting the EVOLUTION™ total knee replacement system also launched globally.
In China, the domestically manufactured Goral™ Total Hip system obtained regulatory clearance. Meanwhile, MicroPort’s spine and trauma sales in China benefitted from the launches of the Piscis™II Interbody Fusion system and the Tankin™II Canulated Spine MIS system.
MicroPort’s orthopedic business raised RMB 580 million (USD $82 million) from investors in the first half, which will provide the necessary funding to support the company’s new product development and market expansion efforts.
