Financial Analyst

DIH's Q1 FY2025 results show promising growth and improved operational efficiency. Revenue increased by 24% year-over-year to $16.2 million, driven by strong performance in EMEA and the Americas (both up 54%). The 12 percentage point improvement in gross margin to 53.5% is particularly impressive, indicating better cost management and potentially higher-margin product mix.

The reduction in net loss from $2.9 million to $0.6 million demonstrates significant progress towards profitability. However, investors should note the 48.2% increase in SG&A expenses, which could pressure margins if not managed carefully as the company scales. The reiterated full-year revenue guidance of $74-77 million suggests management's confidence in maintaining growth momentum.

Medical Technology Expert

DIH's focus on advanced robotic devices for physical rehabilitation is paying off, as evidenced by the strong growth in device and service revenues. The 49% increase in service revenue is particularly noteworthy, indicating growing adoption and utilization of DIH's technologies in clinical settings. This recurring revenue stream could provide stability and predictability to future earnings.

The company's success in EMEA and the Americas suggests effective market penetration strategies and growing acceptance of robotic rehabilitation solutions in these regions. However, the decrease in Asian sales warrants attention and may require region-specific strategies. The continued investment in R&D (14.3% increase) is important for maintaining technological leadership in this rapidly evolving field, potentially leading to new product offerings and market opportunities.

Financial Results for the First Fiscal Quarter Ended June 30, 2024

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $3.1 million, or 24.1%, to $16.2 million from $13.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The overall increase was primarily due to an increase in devices sold of $1.8 million, or 17.6% year over year. The increase in devices revenue was primarily driven by higher sales volume in EMEA. Services revenue represented an increase of $1.2 million, up 49.1% compared to the prior period. Other revenues were consistent compared to the prior period. Total revenue in EMEA and the Americas increased by $3.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively, to $10.2 million and $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $6.6 million and $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in sales in Asia.

The impact due to foreign currency translation resulted in a decrease of approximately $0.1 million in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Gross profit for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, was $8.7 million, an increase of 60.6% compared to the prior year period. The increase was driven by an increase of $3.1 million in sales primarily in the EMEA region. Cost of sales was improved as compared to June 30, 2023, and was driven in part by a provision adjustment in the prior year that was not recurring in the current period.

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $2.8 million, or 48.2%, to $8.7 million from $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven by a $0.7 million increase in professional service costs related to audit, legal and other professional services along with an investment in finance capacity to support public company reporting obligations. Additionally, the increase included a $0.7 million increase in performance-based compensation and a $0.9 million increase in overhead expenses supporting the current growth. In addition, the Company implemented new guidance for the provision of credit losses during the three months ended June 30, 2023 The adjustment during the prior period reduced reserves on receivables in the prior year and, generated a benefit to the Company in the prior year that is not recurring as of the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Research and development costs for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $0.2 million, or 14.3%, to $1.6 million from $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to a $0.2 million increase in personnel expenses related to increased employee compensation.

Cash and cash equivalents on June 30, 2024 totaled $2.7 million.

Fiscal Year 2025 Outlook

The Company continues to expect gross revenue for fiscal year 2025 to range between $74 million and $77 million, representing approximately 15%-20% growth over fiscal year 2024.
