Preliminary and unaudited revenue for the third quarter of 2018 is expected to be approximately $64.6 million, reflecting growth of approximately 47 percent over the third quarter of 2017 and approximately 17 percent growth on a non-GAAP basis. Non-GAAP revenues include JOTEC revenues for the same nine-month period in 2017 prior to the closing of the acquisition of JOTEC on December 1, 2017.

"Our third quarter revenue results were driven by continuing strength in JOTEC, which increased 32 percent on a non-GAAP basis, On-X, which increased 36 percent year-over-year, and tissue processing, which grew 15 percent," said Pat Mackin, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of CryoLife.
