FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., March 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Motus GI Holdings, Inc., (NASDAQ: MOTS) (“Motus GI” or the “Company”), a medical technology company focused on improving endoscopic outcomes and experiences, today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, and provided a corporate update.

“During the past year, we achieved several key milestones that we believe strengthen our position operationally and subsequently initiated a limited U.S. commercial launch of the Pure-Vu® EVS Gastro and Gen 4 Colon system. The new indication for the Upper GI space, along with several technological advancements in both devices are expected to strengthen our ability to penetrate the endoscopy market,” commented Mark Pomeranz, Chief Executive Officer. “We believe the EVS Gastro system opens up significant new market opportunities for our technology, especially in the emergent setting of upper GI bleeding. We have already seen positive results in this high acuity population. Following its initial launch, we received positive feedback on these latest devices in terms of easy of setup and better handling with our Flex Channel technology that has no oversleeve in both the upper and lower GI tract. We are in the process of moving existing accounts over to these new devices, which is expected to be completed by end of the first quarter of 2024 and will move on to targeting new accounts in the second quarter.”

“Over the last six months, we have been able to improve our balance sheet by reducing our debt, eliminating a historical royalty commitment and receiving an infusion of capital. We believe our ability to achieve all these milestones over the past year has created significant value in our business and put us in a strong position to seek strategic partnerships,” concluded Mr. Pomeranz.
