“This past year has been truly transformative for iRhythm as we have made exceptional strides towards advancing our vision to bring innovative, trusted solutions to millions of patients,” said Quentin Blackford, iRhythm’s President and CEO. “In 2023, we accelerated momentum in both existing customer channels and new ones, initiated the largest product launch in the company’s history, released a refreshed patient mobile application to drive digital engagement, implemented enhancements like Afib burden into our Zio AT reports for our physician customers, published the CAMELOT data that showed monitoring with the Zio service is more likely to prevent retesting and get to a diagnosis, and opened our global business services center in the Philippines to continue driving operational efficiency on a global scale. I am so excited that we are rapidly approaching nearly 8 million reports posted since the company’s inception, and these important milestones are exemplary of the progress that we are driving at iRhythm to bring our platform technology to more patients worldwide.”
“Moving into 2024, we are poised to build upon this momentum while making strategic investments for future growth opportunities. In addition to strength that we continue to see from our cardiology customer segment, we continue to be excited by the tremendous opportunity that exists to reach more patients by opening the primary care channel, and we have been encouraged that approximately 21% of U.S. Zio XT and monitor volumes in 2023 came through this prescriber group. We have line of sight to milestones within multiple international markets, intend to aggressively advance our product roadmap, and will continue to drive operational efficiency and financial sustainability through an intense focus on organizational discipline. With additional capital to invest in growth and our unique offering well positioned to deliver value to patients, physicians, healthcare systems, and shareholders, we have never been more excited for the future at iRhythm," concluded Mr. Blackford.
Closing of Flexible, Non-Dilutive Senior Secured Term Loan Facility
Today the Company also announced the closing of a five-year debt facility providing up to $150 million in capital from Braidwell LP, a healthcare-focused investment firm. An initial $75 million has been funded with the option to draw an additional $75 million over the next year. The proceeds of the transaction will be used to repay the Company’s outstanding debt and for other general corporate purposes.
“As we continue to bring our Zio services to millions of patients globally and prepare for significant growth in the years to come, we are very pleased to strengthen iRhythm’s balance sheet with flexible, non-dilutive capital through our partnership with Braidwell, an existing iRhythm investor and a collaborative partner to the healthcare industry,” said Brice Bobzien, iRhythm’s Chief Financial Officer. “Since inception, iRhythm has been a pioneer in patch-based ambulatory cardiac monitoring by bringing artificial intelligence, relentless focus on the patient experience, and new models of care delivery to the digital healthcare space. This additional capital will allow us to continue pursuing this mission as we invest in technology initiatives and strategic pillars for growth.”
