CLEVELAND, March 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ViewRay, Inc. (OTCQB: VRAY) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2015.

Chris A. Raanes, President and Chief Executive Officer of ViewRay, said, "We have growing momentum in converting order backlog to revenue, with two MRIdian systems installed in the second half of 2015. We executed new sales contracts with a total value of $40.1 million in 2015, expanding our backlog to 15 systems totaling $84.4 million. Perhaps most exciting, we announced meaningful progress with our transformative MRIdian linac technology ahead of our original development timeline expectations."

MRIdian System Linac Technology

In March 2016, ViewRay announced the development of a new linac version of its MRIdian technology, including the sale of a research unit with the new MRIdian linac technology to the Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. ViewRay is designing the MRIdian linac technology to fit in the same footprint as the current MRIdian system and to be available as an upgrade for existing MRIdian systems. Significant components of the MRIdian linac technology include radio frequency "cloaking" technology to preserve the integrity of MR image quality, magnetic shielding technology to enable undistorted delivery of radiation, "pop-apart" magnet design for access to existing radiotherapy vaults and double-focused multi-leaf collimator technology for the delivery of sharp radiation beams. ViewRay expects there will be scientific papers on the new linac technology presented at key medical society meetings in the second half of the year.

Mr. Raanes added, "Our new linac technology is a dramatic breakthrough that will strengthen our business in several ways. When commercially available, we think it has the potential to accelerate our sales cycle and backlog conversion time while also broadening our addressable market and improving our gross margins. We expect to apply for FDA clearance and CE Mark for the new linac technology in the second half of 2016."

NASDAQ Listing

ViewRay has received confirmation that its application to list its common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market has been approved by the NASDAQ Stock Market. ViewRay's common stock is expected to begin trading on the NASDAQ Global Market on or about March 31 under its current trading symbol "VRAY".

Mr. Raanes said, "The listing of VRAY shares on the NASDAQ will expand awareness and visibility for the Company in the investment community and broader marketplace."
