Xtant Medical reported 3Q18 revenue of $17.3MM, -12.7% vs. 3Q17. While leadership was encouraged by profitability improvements from facility consolidations, sales results remain below expectations. Revenue has fallen mostly due to a company-initiated termination of distributor agreements, as well as challenges in sales channel management.
To address performance issues, Xtant named three new members to its executive team in the third quarter. Michael Mainelli was named interim CEO, replacing Carl O’Connell, and the company hired Kevin Brandt in July as Chief Commercial Officer and Kathie Lenzen in August as Chief Financial Officer. Mainelli said the company is working on plans that are expected to improve sales through new product development, marketing programs, and more effective channel management but did not give specifics on any of those initiatives.
While the spine segment has declined significantly, leadership reaffirmed their commitment to spinal fixation products as important to the future of the company. ORTHOWORLD projects 2018 Xtant revenue of $70.7MM, -14.3% vs. 2017.
