Management to Host Conference Call Today at 5:00 pm ET

LITTLETON, Colo., August 14, 2024 - Vivos Therapeutics, Inc. ("Vivos" or the "Company'') (NASDAQ: VVOS), a leading medical device and technology company specializing in the development and commercialization of highly effective proprietary treatments for sleep related breathing disorders (including all severities of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults), today reported financial results and operating highlights for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial and Operating Summary

	●	Revenue was $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2024 and $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $3.4 million and $7.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, mainly due increased product revenue from higher sales and lower discounts of Vivos appliances coupled with higher service revenue reflecting an increase in Vivos Integrated Provider (VIP) enrollment revenue, partially offset by lower Myofunctional therapy revenues.
	●	Gross profit was $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2024 and $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $2.1 million and $4.4 million for the comparable periods in 2023, primarily attributable to the increase in revenue and partially offset by an increase in cost of sales;
	●	Gross margin increased to 65% for the second quarter of 2024, compared to 62% for the second quarter of 2023 due primarily to the revenue increase. Gross margin remained constant at 61% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023;
	●	Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 decreased by a significant amount ($2.0 million, or 31%) versus the second quarter of 2023, reflecting the success of Vivos' cost-cutting initiatives including personnel and related expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 operating expenses decreased by $3.7 million or 26%, compared to the same period in 2023;
	●	Vivos' cost-cutting initiatives also led to a significant year-over-year reduction in operating loss ($2.6 million or 57%), versus the second quarter of 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 operating loss decreased by $3.8 million or 40%, compared to the same period in 2023. Vivos anticipates attaining positive cash flow in early 2025;
	●	At June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents were $6.9 million while stockholders' equity was $6.3 million, more than sufficient to demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq's minimum equity requirement;
	●	As of June 30, 2024, patients treated with Vivos' patented oral appliances totaled over 45,000 worldwide, compared to approximately 40,000 as of the second quarter of 2023. Vivos has also trained more than 2,000 dentists in the use of The Vivos Method and Vivos' related value-added services, compared to over 1,800 as of the second quarter 2023;

	●	In April 2024, Vivos received all required regulatory approvals to enable Medicare reimbursement for its CARE oral devices. This milestone achievement allows millions of Medicare beneficiaries coverage and reimbursement for allowable charges billable to Medicare. The Vivos Method is estimated to be indicated and potentially effective (within the scope of the FDA cleared uses) in approximately 80% of cases of OSA where patients are compliant with clinical treatments;
	●	In June 2024, the Company announced a strategic marketing and distribution alliance with an operator of multiple sleep testing and treatment centers in Colorado. This alliance, which Vivos hopes will be the first of a series of similar alliances across the country, marks an important pivot in Vivos' marketing and distribution model for its cutting edge OSA appliances;
	●	Also in June, the Company announced the related closing of a $7.5 million equity growth investment from an affiliate of New Seneca Partners, Inc., a leading North American private equity sponsor based in Southfield, Michigan. This investment materially bolsters Vivos' cash on hand and stockholders' equity and will facilitate the launch of the new strategic alliance and potentially other similar alliances, which is expected to positively impact Vivos' revenue growth.; and
	●	Later in June, Vivos announced positive results from a 7-month, multi-site marketing pilot testing the core assumptions behind Vivos' new affiliation and medical sleep specialist marketing and distribution model. The results revealed that 79% (60 out of 76) newly diagnosed adult OSA patients chose Vivos' oral appliance therapy over either continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines or choosing to do nothing, while 5% (4 out of 76) of patients declined all treatment options, and 16% (12 out of 76) patients chose to investigate CPAP as an option before making a final decision. No patients in the pilot program opted for surgical or neurostimulation implant options.

Kirk Huntsman, Vivos' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Today, we reported solid second quarter results as we continued to leverage our broad portfolio of innovative products, and our proprietary core technology and treatment protocols that offer highly effective treatment alternatives for OSA patients. Vivos' second quarter results included a 19% increase in revenue, both from the first quarter and on a year over year basis. In addition to sequential sales growth, this marked our eighth consecutive quarter where we have reported lower operating expenses on a year over year basis, reflecting the sustained success of our cost-cutting initiatives."

"Importantly, during the second quarter we announced a new marketing and distribution model based on contractual alliances with medical sleep specialists. This model is designed to better align our interests with referring medical professionals, dentists and sleep treatment providers. We expect this model will substantially expand the number of OSA patients who have access to our full scope of evidence-based products and methods, make our revenue less reliant on VIP enrollments, and build on the other revenue initiatives we've been implementing over the past several quarters. As we continue to move more directly and vertically into affiliations and collaborations with medical specialists, functional medicine doctors, and other sleep-related healthcare practitioners, we expect this to positively impact our new case starts, revenue growth and gross profit, while reducing our customer acquisition and related overhead costs."

Mr. Huntsman continued, "As part of this new model, during the quarter we entered into a strategic marketing and distribution alliance with an operator of multiple sleep testing and treatment centers in Colorado. We began to see patients from this operator in late July and the fourth quarter will be our first full quarter of operations from this new relationship. This is an important milestone for Vivos, and we believe it represents the first in a similar series of alliances that we intend to launch nationwide. Related to this, in the second quarter we also completed a $7.5 million private equity-led investment from New Seneca Partners, who helped us develop our new alliance model over nine months of due diligence and who will also work with us going forward as an advisor to help bolster our growth prospects. We are thrilled to be working with Seneca and appreciate their belief and support for our vision."

"In summary, our entire team is committed to ensuring this new business model is successful and to maximizing our relationships with our new collaborators. We believe this comprehensive model will expand our boundaries beyond the world of dentistry and offer us greater exposure to a larger base of sleep medicine practitioners, providing us access to a larger pool of patients. Further, we believe this model will complement our other revenue initiatives. Combined, we anticipate that all of these actions we have taken will drive greater revenue, make Vivos cash flow positive and in the long-term help Vivos to reach profitability. In the end, what drives our success is this: Vivos offers adult patients who suffer from OSA an effective, safe, and non-surgical solution for all severities of this debilitating condition. Our solutions work, and when patients are presented with all the facts, data from our studies have shown time and time again that these patients will most often choose Vivos," Mr. Huntsman concluded.

Vivos encourages investors and other interested parties to join its conference call today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time (details below), where management will discuss further details on topics including: (i) Vivos' new collaboration initiatives described herein, expanded product line and revenue potential, (ii) an update on Vivos' durable medical equipment and other sales and marketing efforts; (ii) additional programs for dentists to enroll with Vivos, and (iv) Vivos' current cash position and actions taken to reduce expenses and remain compliant with Nasdaq listing standards.
