Thank you. Good morning and thank you all for participating in the call today. I am happy to report another very good quarter of revenue and earnings growth as well as an exciting and outstanding year. As we reported in this morning's press release, Q4 revenue was $11.9million, a 39% increase over the fourth quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP earnings were $0.33 or 373% over that fourth quarter 2020. On a sequential basis we continued our path of growth trend with Q4 revenue coming in at 9% over Q3 2021 and adjusted earnings in over 43%. From the sales perspective, customer demand for our products started off and remains strong all year and continually outpaced our expectations. We saw strength of demand demonstrated in our record bookings which were 39% higher in the full-year '21 over 2020. Our string of extremely strong bookings growth continued directly into the fourth quarter when bookings increased nearly 48% over the fourth quarter of 2020 on a sequential basis, over 25% from the third quarter 2021. The level of demand for our products has also allowed us to grow backlog, which at the end of the year stood at $10.9 million compared to $4.4 million at the end of 2020. We feel that the strong demand for our products and growing backlog level adds to our confidence and further validates the value that we bring to our customers. Regarding engineering and new product development, much of our attention has turned to supporting the regulatory team towards clearance of our next generation IV pump. We've continued to work with FDA on the additional testing and documentation they've been requiring. We expect that this will continue for much of the first half of the year and still anticipate potential clearance coming in the second half of 2022.…

Thank you. And good morning everyone. I'll review our financial results. And as always, I'll be discussing the results on a GAAP basis as well as on a non-GAAP basis. You can find a description of our non-GAAP operating measures in this morning's earnings release. You can also find a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the nearest GAAP measure, on the last page of today's release. Also, please keep in mind that when comparing year-to-date results during 2020 we recognized $3.2 million of general administrative expenses related to our former CEO. As we reported earlier this morning, fourth quarter 2021 revenue was $11.9 billion, an increase of 38.9% compared to the fourth quarter last year. And on a sequential basis, revenue grew by 9.1% over Q3 2021. Revenue from domestic sales increased 33.3% to $9.5 million during the fourth quarter and revenue from international sales increased 66.8% to $2.4 million. Overall, domestic revenue accounted for 79.8% of total revenue for the 2021 quarter compared to 83.1% for the 2020 quarter. Device revenue increased 49.7% to $8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. This was driven by 50.9% increase in monitor revenue and a 48.5% increase in IV pump revenue. The average selling price of our MRI compatible IV infusion pump system during the fourth quarter 2021 was approximately $33,800, compared to approximately $37,600 for the fourth quarter 2020. This decrease relates to higher international unit sales, and an unfavorable product sales mix during the current quarter. The average selling price of our MRI compatible patient vital signs monitoring system, during the fourth quarter '21, it was approximately $41,000 compared to approximately $37,500 in the same period of 2020. This increase relates to price increases we have been in the process of instituting across our monitor lineup partially offset…

Thank you. [Operator Instructions] And our first question comes from the line of Scott Henry with ROTH Capital. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Thank you. Good morning and congratulations on the strong results and guidance for next year. I did have a couple of questions. First, with regards to the backlog, is that tilted in one category versus the other or is it largely split between monitors and pumps?

I would say Scott that we wouldn't normally get into the composition of backlog, but I would say that we've got a healthy levels of backlog across pumps, monitors, and smaller -- to a smaller extent, disposables.

Okay. And at some point does production catch up such that you feel the backlog or how should we think about what happens to that backlog over time? I mean, do you expect to work through it in 2022 or is it just kind of a steady-state backlog that we should think about?

I think there's a steady-state. And I think we're having those discussions internally of what -- how much backlog should we carry as a percentage of future revenue, and -- but at the same time, manage lead times so that we're not asking our customers to wait too long for our products.

Okay. Great. And then, you've really strong guidance for 2022 and I know Chris, you're typically conservative guy so it makes it even more impressive. Question is, is the guidance reliant on the next-generation pump coming out or does that factor into your outlook for 2022?

We haven't included any revenue contribution from the next-gen pump. Our feeling -- we still feel and I think Roger said this in his comments that the back half of the year is still our base case. But even if it comes in the back half of the year it's still going to have to work through the sales cycle. So we may in fact have a few placements towards the end of the year but the real contribution is coming -- from the next-gen pump is going to be in 2023.

Yeah. Scott, it is Roger to pipe in, we didn't -- we included 0 revenue of the new pump in this guidance.

Okay. Great. Thank you for that color [Indiscernible], I guess just the final question. Again on the theme of why 2022 looks strong as it does, it sounds like you said that the monitor would be a key driver, at least that's what I took away. If there's something -- I mean, are you just reaching that inflection point where it's gaining traction or why the optimism for the monitors in 2022?

Maybe I can take that one Chris if you don't mind.

Yeah. Sure.

I use that word inflection. That's -- I'm gonna use it probably a lot. We're really seeing that the stars are aligning up with the monitor in a few of these aspects. Number 1, our sales team has really learned how to position it, go in and help physicians use it hands on work, compete with the big, big, big competitor, Philips. And so its -- that's a big contributor that the sales teams come up to speed on it. A second big contributor is that as Chris mentioned, we have been fairly successful increasing the price of it while we're selling more. And the third aspect that it's probably helping this out a bit is, it's no secret that the big competitor Philips has their hands full with some other issues. And that's probably helping us a good bit as well. And overall, probably the biggest point that's causing this inflection is, we've got enough of the product out there now. There's certainly -- there's still six or 800 of these units out there now that it's no longer looked at as maybe a bit of a dare or very new products that you might fear a little risk being the first one to buy. That is probably the largest contributor in the mind of the customer. And I think all of these factors together are what give us great cause for looking very excitedly at the potential of the monitor into the next couple of few years.

Okay. Great. Thank you, Roger, that was really helpful. That should do it for me. Thanks again, guys, and congratulations.

Thanks.

Thanks, Scott.

Thank you. [Operator Instructions] And our next question comes from the line of Lisa Springer with Singular Research. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Thank you and congratulations on a really strong quarter and a really good year. My first question is I want to -- I wonder if you can comment on how you see sales unfolding in the U.S. market versus the European market in 2022. Are you saying one market's stronger than the other?

Yeah, domestic market is definitely opening up much quicker since with the COVID issue, that's primarily what I'm referring to when I say opening. I'd say the COVID problems in Europe continue to be a bit of a drag on sales growth there. But all-in-all the monitors, acceptability, and how the buyer is looking at it is, very positive in both, in all areas of the world, also Asia and even -- we even had a large order in Mexico coming a few weeks ago. So that monitor is just really starting to impress, I think.

Okay. Excellent. And can you comment on what assumptions you're making about supply chain issues in 2022, are you're looking for them to ease in the second half of the year?

Like Chris said, there are -- it's no fun. I think that's what Chris was trying to say. We deal with it quite a bit on a near daily basis. But, I suppose having been in that fight now for the last several months, we feel two things, we feel that we've gotten our hands around the critical stock that we need. And as you alluded to, we do see that this is capacity from chip suppliers and so forth is starting to show a little glimmer of hope that it's not going to continue -- it's not getting worse. And that, it's not going to continue for an exorbitantly long period of time.

Okay. And could you comment for me on the cadence of revenues, quarterly revenues you see in '22, are you expecting the majority of revenues in the second half of the year?

No, I think we had a nice even roll out throughout the year. I think the one item that might impact second half revenue or cause it to accelerate a little bit more than the first half is just how the FMD ramps up. And again, it's not a lot of money that's coming in for the FMD, but we do anticipate the second half of the year to be higher than the first half when it comes to that product. We expect nice even growth to come through.

And then just one more question. You're building up quite a bit of cash on the balance sheet. I'm just wondering what are your priorities for allocating capital if you comment on the cash position.

You wanna take that, Chris?

Yeah. I think the board continues to have these discussions around with capital. It's something that we are very aware of, and we don't have any more comments other than that at this point, but these are discussions that continue to consume a lot of time at the board level.

Okay. Thank you very much, gentlemen.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you. And I'm showing no further questions at this time, and I would like to turn the conference back over to Roger Susi for any further remarks.

Well, thank you and please forgive me again for being a bit repetitious, but I'd like to drive home just how very pleased we are with our results and how proud of the entire team's performance this year we all are. I had said earlier and believe that we are at an inflection point. We use that word a few times as customers realize more and more of the value of our -- that our products bring to them, which in turn gives us faith in our guidance. And it's confirmation that we have the right products at the right time. And so we'll continue to make significant strides in building demand and we look forward to expanding our momentum continually through 2022. As always, we remain steadfast in our optimism and look forward to speaking with you again soon. Thank you all.

This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
