Stock-based compensation expense was significant at **$7.7 million** for the quarter, largely due to the modification of replacement awards. The company operates in two segments: Vascular, which saw revenue growth to **$0.5 million** but incurred a gross loss, and Dermatology, with revenue of **$1.3 million** and a gross profit of **$0.5 million** - The company adopted ASC Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers) on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method. The adoption did not have a material effect on the results of operations for the three-month period[28](index=28&type=chunk) - The company adopted ASC Topic 842 (Leases) on January 1, 2019, recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of **$3.2 million**.

The significant increase in net loss to **$14.7 million** in Q1 2019 from **$2.7 million** in Q1 2018 was driven by a **$10.6 million** rise in SG&A expenses and a **$1.2 million** increase in R&D, primarily due to higher stock-based compensation and costs associated with being a public company. While total net revenue grew **80%** to **$1.7 million**, gross profit turned into a loss of **$0.2 million**. The company believes its cash of **$55.1 million** is sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months [Overview](index=17&type=section&id=Overview) - Ra Medical is a commercial-stage medical device company with two main products: DABRA for vascular diseases (PAD) and Pharos for dermatological conditions[81](index=81&type=chunk) - The company is pursuing an expanded FDA indication for DABRA to include atherectomy, with a clinical trial expected to start in Q3 2019 and have final results in Q1 2020[81](index=81&type=chunk)[82](index=82&type=chunk) - Recent challenges included production limitations in catheter manufacturing (remediated in March 2019) and the need for a more robust training program for new sales personnel, which impacted Q4 2018 and Q1 2019 revenue[89](index=89&type=chunk) [Results of Operations](index=20&type=section&id=Results%20of%20Operations) Comparison of Results for Three Months Ended March 31 (in thousands) | Item | 2019 | 2018 | Change $ | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Total net revenue | $1,748 | $969 | $779 | | Gross (loss) profit | $(194) | $233 | $(427) | | Selling, general and administrative | $13,229 | $2,639 | $10,590 | | Research and development | $1,531 | $286 | $1,245 | | Net loss | $(14,674) | $(2,693) | $(11,981) | - Vascular segment revenue increased by **$0.4 million** year-over-year due to higher catheter sales following the commercial launch[103](index=103&type=chunk) - SG&A expenses increased by **$10.6 million**, primarily due to a **$5.9 million** increase in stock-based compensation, **$2.5 million** in personnel costs for sales and public company functions, and **$0.8 million** in outside services[111](index=111&type=chunk) - R&D expenses increased by **$1.2 million**, mainly from a **$0.8 million** rise in stock-based compensation and a **$0.4 million** increase in supplies[112](index=112&type=chunk) [Liquidity and Capital Resources](index=23&type=section&id=Liquidity%20and%20Capital%20Resources) - As of March 31, 2019, the company had cash and cash equivalents of **$55.1 million** and an accumulated deficit of **$74.9 million**[120](index=120&type=chunk) - Management believes that existing cash will be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months[121](index=121&type=chunk) - Net cash used in operating activities was **$8.9 million** for the three months ended March 31, 2019, a significant increase from **$2.4 million** in the prior-year period, driven by a higher net loss[123](index=123&type=chunk)[124](index=124&type=chunk) [Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk](index=25&type=section&id=Item%203.%20Quantitative%20and%20Qualitative%20Disclosures%20about%20Market%20Risk) The company's primary market risks are related to interest rate sensitivity, foreign currency exchange, and inflation. Management believes that exposure to these risks is not material. Cash and cash equivalents of **$55.1 million** are held in short-term instruments, minimizing interest rate risk. As international operations expand, foreign currency risk may increase, but its current effect is not material.
