During the second quarter, the Company sold seven Renaissance systems and one system upgrade.

“Our record performance in the second quarter reflects the growing recognition by surgeons and hospital administrations of the value our products deliver to their patients,” commented Ori Hadomi, Chief Executive Officer. “I believe that the record sale of six systems in the U.S. in the quarter, which includes new metropolitan markets in the U.S., validates the growing momentum we’ve been feeling in the market. While the U.S. remains our primary growth market, we continue to make significant progress in expanding our presence internationally, as evidenced by our first system sale in Spain. To ensure we continue to address the needs of surgeons and the hospital administrators and maintain our leadership position in the robotic spine surgery market, we recently enhanced our sales, marketing, research and product management teams.”
