  • Replacement implant revenue is expected to be approximately $1.4 million, representing a decline of 44% compared to $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

“We finished the year with continued business momentum driven by increasing initial RNS System implants and our first quarter distributing DIXI Medical stereo EEG products,” said Mike Favet, Chief Executive Officer of NeuroPace. “We believe that we are entering 2023 well-positioned to further penetrate and expand the drug-resistant epilepsy treatment market through execution of initiatives designed to increase awareness of the differentiated benefits of the RNS System and to engage with patients earlier in the treatment continuum.”

NeuroPace plans to release its fourth quarter and full year 2022 financial results in early-March of 2023. The quarterly and annual preliminary revenue estimates for 2022 included in this press release are being provided prior to the completion of review and audit procedures by NeuroPace’s independent registered public accounting firm and are therefore subject to adjustment.

Additionally, NeuroPace announced the appointment of Dr. Uri Geiger to its Board of Directors, effective January 5, 2023.

“We are pleased to welcome another valued shareholder to the Board of Directors,” said Mike Favet. “Dr. Geiger brings financial expertise, operating experience and a healthcare investing background to the Board and underscores our focus on constructive engagement with our shareholders and our goal to have a wide range of perspectives guiding NeuroPace as we continue to focus on driving value for all of our stakeholders.”

“As a major investor in NeuroPace, I am looking forward to continue supporting NeuroPace in advancing their goal of bringing life-changing technology to people living with epilepsy,” said Dr. Geiger. “NeuroPace has a proven technology and I am excited to have the opportunity to apply my experience to help advance the Company’s vital mission.”

Dr. Geiger is the founder and Managing Partner of Accelmed Partners, a private equity firm focused on medical device companies. Prior to founding Accelmed, Dr. Geiger was the founder and CEO of Exalenz Bioscience Ltd., the developer of an innovative breath-based technology for diagnosing liver and gastrointestinal disorders, which Dr. Geiger took public in 2007 and later sold to Meridian. Prior to Exalenz, Dr. Geiger co-founded and was the CEO of GalayOr Networks, a developer of optical components, sold in 2003 to MEMSCAP. Dr. Geiger was also the founding partner of Dragon Variation Fund in 2000, one of Israel's first hedge funds, which was sold to Migdal in 2007. Dr. Geiger worked on Wall Street during the 1990s, where he gained a broad understanding of and significant experience in capital markets. Dr. Geiger was formerly an adjunct professor at Tel Aviv University's Recanati School of Business where he lectured on private equity and venture capital and authored the books "Startup Companies and Venture Capital" and "From Concept to Wall Street." He earned his doctorate from New York’s Columbia University Center for Law & Economics, where he majored in global equity markets. Dr. Geiger served as Chairman and Board member of over 30 medical device companies including a number of NASDAQ listed companies.

About Epilepsy
One in 26 Americans will develop epilepsy in their lifetime, with approximately 150,000 new cases of epilepsy diagnosed annually. An estimated 3.4 million Americans currently live with epilepsy. Epilepsy is a chronic disorder, the hallmark of which is recurrent, unprovoked seizures. More people live with epilepsy than autism spectrum disorders, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy combined1.

About the RNS® System
The RNS System is the world’s first and only closed-loop brain-responsive neuromodulation system, designed to prevent seizures at their source. The RNS System is composed of a neurostimulator, leads that are placed at the seizure foci, a remote monitor used by patients to upload their data, and a RNS Tablet and Patient Data Management System (PDMS) used by physicians. Physicians can view their patient’s electrographic data on a secure website and program the device to personalize therapy for each individual. Unlike anti-epileptic drugs or resective surgery, brain-responsive neuromodulation outcomes typically improve with time and do not cause the cognitive side effects that can be associated with those alternatives. The RNS System is now available at nearly all comprehensive epilepsy centers in the United States and is widely covered by private and government insurance.

The RNS® System is an adjunctive therapy for adults with refractory, focal onset seizures with no more than 2 epileptogenic foci. See important safety information at www.neuropace.com/safety/

About NeuroPace, Inc.
Based in Mountain View, Calif., NeuroPace is a commercial-stage medical device company focused on transforming the lives of people living with epilepsy by reducing or eliminating the occurrence of debilitating seizures. Its novel and differentiated RNS System is the first and only commercially available, brain-responsive platform that delivers personalized, real-time treatment at the seizure source. This platform can drive a better standard of care for patients living with drug-resistant epilepsy and has the potential to offer a more personalized solution and improved outcomes to the large population of patients suffering from other brain disorders.
