NEVE ILAN, Israel, Aug. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NANO-X IMAGING LTD (NASDAQ: NNOX) (“Nanox” or the “Company”), an innovative medical imaging technology company, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021 and provided a business update.

Nanox today announced entry into two agreements intended to create a globally connected, end-to-end radiology solution. The Company announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire a leading medical artificial intelligence (AI) developer Zebra Medical Vision in an all-stock transaction for $100 million upfront and another $100 million tied to achievement of specific milestones. Nanox also announced today that it has entered into a binding letter of intent to acquire USARAD and its related company, Medical Diagnostics Web, or MDW. USARAD together with MDW operates a global network of over 300 radiologists. Total consideration for USARAD and MDW is $30 million, comprised of $21 million of Nanox shares and $9 million in cash

“Expanding access to medical imaging via widespread deployment of the Nanox.ARC solves just one of the obstacles to achieving true population health management,” stated Ran Poliakine, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nanox. “The global shortage of trained radiologists represents a significant bottleneck in the imaging process. The Nanox.ARC, together with the acquisitions of Zebra Medical Vision and USARAD, if consummated, would allow us to support our systems with a large network of radiologists empowered with highly advanced AI algorithms. This end-to-end, globally connected medical imaging solution will allow for the rapid interpretation of medical images into actionable medical interventions and would also represent a significant step toward our vision of true population preventive health care.

“With regards to the ongoing development of the multi-source Nanox.ARC, as you may recall, one of the highlights since our last quarterly update was the FDA 510(k) submission for the first version of the multi-source Nanox.ARC. We are reiterating our goal of deploying 15,000 by the end of 2024.

“As we prepare to scale globally and ramp up our manufacturing capabilities, I have asked Erez Meltzer, who has served as Director at Nanox for the last two years, to step forward and become our CEO. Erez is a seasoned public company executive who has a tremendous amount of experience in scaling organizations to become global corporations. We are fortunate to have a highly experienced executive of Erez’s caliber on our Board, and I have every confidence that he has the ideal skill set and background to achieve long-term success. I look forward to working alongside him and the rest of the team in my role as Executive Chairman, in which I intend to be very involved in the company’s longer-term initiatives and future collaborations.

“I would also like to welcome Ran Daniel as our new Chief Financial Officer, and he will join our company on August 15th. Ran brings to the team over 25 years of financial and business management experience and will be based in the U.S. as we work to bolster our U.S. presence. Finally, I would like to thank Itzhak Maayan for his many contributions to Nanox, most notably the completion of our successful initial public offering last year,” Mr. Poliakine concluded.

Research and development expenses for the second quarter 2021 were $4.3 million, as compared to $1.8 million for the corresponding prior year period in 2020.

Marketing expenses for the second quarter 2021 were $1.8 million, as compared to $0.8 million for the corresponding prior year period in 2020. These expenses increased due to higher investments in brand awareness and product marketing as well as labor cost and share-based compensation.

General and administrative expenses for the second quarter 2021 were $7.4 million, as compared to $3.9 million for corresponding prior year period in 2020. The increase in general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the corresponding prior period was due to increased investments in the expansion of the Company’s management team and the overall organization infrastructure in addition to increased costs related with the Company’s transition to being a public company. Net cash used in operating activities during the second quarter 2021 was $7.4 million.

The Company ended the second quarter 2021 with cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $193.4 million.

The difference between the GAAP and non-GAAP results for each of the metrics above is mainly attributable to share-based compensation and secondary offering expenses.

Completion of the proposed Zebra-Med acquisition is subject to, among others, approval of the transaction by the equity holders of Zebra-Med.
