Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 Financial Results

Revenue: Total revenue was $20.6 million, up 33% from $15.4 million in the third quarter of 2023. U.S. revenue was $13.1 million, up 27% from prior year, driven by the recently launched next-generation iQ3 probe’s higher selling price and increased enterprise software revenue. International revenue increased 36% year-over-year to $5.2 million, with new geographies contributing revenue. Other revenue contributed $2.3 million.

• Product revenue was $13.5 million, an increase of 55% versus the prior year period, driven by the 37% increase in units fulfilled year-over-year and the iQ3’s higher selling price.
• Software and other services revenue was up 5% year-over-year at $7.0 million. Software and other services mix was 34% of revenue and decreased by 9 percentage points versus the prior year due to the higher product revenue achieved this quarter. Enterprise as a percentage of software revenue increased 5 percentage points year-over-year.

Gross profit: Gross profit was $12.2 million versus $9.4 million in the prior year period, and adjusted gross profit was $12.3 million versus $9.4 million in the prior period. Gross margin decreased to 59.5% from 60.8% in the prior year period, and adjusted gross margin decreased to 60.0% from 60.8% in the prior year period. These decreases are primarily due to the higher cost to manufacture iQ3 including efficiencies in starting a new line and warranty expense; product mix, reflecting a higher proportion of product revenues; and higher amortization which reduced margin by approximately 90 basis points, largely offset by higher average selling prices.

Operating expenses: Operating expenses were $29.5 million, down 30% from $41.9 million in the prior year period, due to previously announced reductions in force, as well as non-payroll spending rationalization across all areas.

Total operating expenses excluding stock-based compensation and Other expense were $23.4 million, compared to $25.9 million in the third quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 10%.

Net loss: Net loss was $16.9 million, compared to $27.4 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA loss was $8.4 million, compared to $12.5 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted EPS: Adjusted EPS was ($0.05), compared to ($0.07) in the prior year period.

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash: Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash were $97.8 million as of September 30, 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to providing financial measures based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we provide additional financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (“non-GAAP”). The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS. We present non-GAAP financial measures in order to assist readers of our financial statements in understanding the core operating results that our management uses to evaluate the business and for financial planning purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial performance over multiple periods.

The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are key performance measures that our management uses to assess our operating performance. These non-GAAP measures facilitate internal comparisons of our operating performance on a more consistent basis. We use these performance measures for business planning purposes and forecasting. We believe that these non-GAAP measures enhance an investor’s understanding of our financial performance as they are useful in assessing our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business.

The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate these measures in the same manner. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. When evaluating the Company’s performance, you should consider adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS alongside other financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, including gross profit, gross margin, net loss, and EPS.

The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. In this press release, we have provided reconciliations of adjusted gross profit to gross profit, adjusted gross margin to gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP measures are not available on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the non-cash component of employee compensation expense, changes in our working capital needs, variances in our supply chain, the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be reflective, on a recurring basis, of our ongoing operations, and other such items without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
