Gross margin was approximately 51% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a gross margin of 59% for the same period in 2021.

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 were $0.9 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 51%, compared to the same period of 2021. The increase was primarily due to sustaining engineering activity for the EksoNR and the development of next generation products.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $7.6 million, an increase of $1.2 million, or 18%, compared to the same period of 2021.
