Mazor Robotics Ltd., a developer of innovative guidance systems and complementary products, today announced that it received a purchase order for two Renaissance systems from its distribution partner in China, Cicel (Beijing) Science & Technology CO. Ltd., reflecting the first systems sold into the Chinese market following the receipt of the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) approval to market the Renaissance system in China, in September 2014.
The Company also received a purchase order for one Renaissance system from its distribution partner in Taiwan, Pinnaclemed CO. Ltd. Subject to certain closing conditions, the system is expected to be installed at a newly opened spine hospital in Taiwan. This is the third system purchase by Pinnaclemed Co. Ltd. and will be the third Renaissance system in Taiwan.
“Entering the Chinese market is a significant achievement for Mazor and expands our growing presence in the fastest growth region for Renaissance outside of the U.S. market. We look forward to working closely with our distribution partner to raise the awareness of Renaissance throughout the country highlighting the benefits of the system to leading healthcare facilities. An order for a third system in Taiwan is encouraging as the two systems currently in use have some of the highest utilization rates demonstrating the degree of surgeon comfort, system performance and patient outcome,” commented Ori Hadomi, Mazor's Chief Executive Officer.
Today’s announcement was made in accordance with Mazor Robotics’ disclosure policy of announcing system sales that have a strategic impact on the business, such as new markets, academic institutions and national accounts.
