Bull points
- we are feeling confident that we will obtain the FDA approval
- So it gives the patient the comfort and it gives the physician the option to gradually ramp up stimulation, enabling him also to treat patients that might be sensitive previously when treated with stimulation that now all of a sudden become eligible.
- So combining those two upgrades in one software upgrade is really contributing to our mission in having a patient-centered solution.
Bear points
- From an FDA timeline perspective, we've taken steps to defer costs and investments until our FDA approval is achieved and received.
- we had a few orders that we didn't ship out this past quarter because we wanted the customers, and the customers wanted to have the latest upgraded activation chips for their customers.
- We also saw our competitor in the first quarter also posted a bid single digits decline in the international market.
