Orchestra BioMed reports Q1 EPS (49c), consensus (48c)

Reports Q1 revenue $868k, consensus $522.33k. David Hochman, Chairman and CEO of Orchestra BioMed (OBIO), stated: “We continued to make meaningful progress during the first quarter with significant inflection points for both our AVIM therapy and Virtue SAB programs. We believe the FDA’s Breakthrough Device Designation for AVIM therapy signals meaningful recognition of its potential to meet the clinical needs of millions living with hypertensive heart disease, a population in which chronic high blood pressure can lead to various heart problems like left ventricular hypertrophy, diastolic dysfunction, heart failure, and coronary artery disease. We believe that AVIM therapy has the potential to provide a potent additional therapeutic option for these patients. We are focused on execution of the BACKBEAT global pivotal study alongside our strategic partner Medtronic as the critical pathway toward making AVIM therapy available to patients globally.”
