  • Avinger, Inc. (AVGR) Soars on Strategic Partnership Announcement

    Avinger, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGR) experienced a significant surge in premarket trading today, jumping by an impressive 46% following a rather lackluster performance the previous day, where it saw a modest climb of only 0.14%. This sudden bullish interest comes hot on the heels of a groundbreaking announcement from the commercial-stage medical device company.

    Strategic Partnership Unveiled

    The excitement surrounding Avinger intensified as news broke of its strategic partnership with Zylox-Tonbridge Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (2190.HK). Zylox-Tonbridge, a prominent player in the neuro- and peripheral-vascular interventional market in China, brings a wealth of experience and resources to the table.

    A Match Made in Medical Innovation

    Based in Hangzhou, China, Zylox-Tonbridge boasts an impressive track record, having introduced 36 products into the Greater China interventional markets since its inception in 2012. With a robust sales and marketing team of over 130 individuals and a sprawling distribution network, Zylox-Tonbridge reported sales equivalent to approximately $58 million in the most recent 12-month period, marking a remarkable growth rate exceeding 50% compared to the previous year.

    Synergies with Zylox-Tonbridge

    The partnership between Avinger and Zylox-Tonbridge is multi-faceted, encompassing equity funding, licensing agreements, and technology transfers. Zylox-Tonbridge has committed up to $15 million in equity funding spread across two tranches. Additionally, Avinger gains access to the Greater China market through a licensing agreement while benefitting from technology transfer to bolster global manufacturing capacity.

    Furthermore, the collaboration opens avenues for Avinger to tap into Zylox-Tonbridge’s peripheral vascular products for distribution in key markets such as the United States and Germany. This strategic alliance not only strengthens Avinger’s foothold in the burgeoning medical device landscape but also underscores its commitment to revolutionizing the treatment of vascular diseases on a global scale.

    Conclusion

    As Avinger, Inc. embarks on this transformative journey with Zylox-Tonbridge, investors are buoyed by the promise of innovation and market expansion. With its cutting-edge Lumivascular platform and a strategic partner by its side, Avinger is poised to redefine standards in vascular disease treatment, ultimately improving patient outcomes worldwide.

    • First, to meet the company’s obligations under the January 2022 issuance of its new Series D Preferred Stock and warrants.
