Achieves Record Quarter of EVO Unit Sales

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Oct. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EKSO) (the “Company”), an industry leader in exoskeleton technology for medical and industrial use, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Recent Highlights and Accomplishments

  • Reported revenue of $4.6 million in the third quarter of 2023, an increase of 38% year-over-year
  • Sold a total of 41 EksoHealth devices in the third quarter of 2023
  • Record quarter of EVO unit sales
  • Gross profit of $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $1.7 million in the same period last year

“We continued to generate strong sales of our EksoHealth devices reflecting solid multi-unit order flow with large network operators and continued customer adoption of our Indego product line,” said Scott Davis, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. “In addition, we established a foundation to grow our EksoWorks business as evidenced by a record number of EVO unit sales in the quarter. Finally, we recently applied Ekso Indego Personal for code determination under the proposed Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) rule change to include personal exoskeletons in the Medicare benefit category for braces. If the proposed CMS rules are adopted and our application is approved, we believe the addressable market for our home and community devices for spinal cord injury patients could be significantly expanded.”

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Revenue was $4.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of 38%, compared to $3.3 million for the same period in 2022. The Company sold a total of 41 EksoHealth units in the third quarter of 2023.

Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $2.5 million, an increase of 46% from the same period in 2022, representing a gross margin of approximately 53% in the third quarter of 2023, compared to a gross margin of 51% for the same period in 2022. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower device and service costs.

Sales and marketing expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 were $2.1 million, compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount associated with the acquisition of the Human Motion Control (“HMC”) business unit.

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 were $1.2 million, compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount and an increase in research activity associated with the acquisition of HMC.

General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 were $2.2 million, compared to $2.7 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in legal and business development costs.

Net loss applicable to common stockholders for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 narrowed to $3.4 million, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share, from a net loss of $4.3 million, or $0.33 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2022.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Revenue was $13.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of 43%, compared to $9.4 million for the same period in 2022. The Company sold a total of 111 EksoHealth devices in the first nine months of 2023.

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $6.7 million, representing a gross margin of approximately 50%, compared to gross profit of $4.5 million for the same period in 2022, representing a gross margin of 48%. The overall increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower device costs.

Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $6.5 million, compared to $5.2 million the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher compensation costs associated with the acquisition of HMC and severance expense.

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $3.7 million, compared to $2.7 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount and an increase in research activity associated with the acquisition of HMC.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $8.2 million, compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to HMC-related audit, accounting and integration costs, partially offset by the decrease in severance costs.

Net loss applicable to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $12.0 million, or $0.88 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $11.9 million, or $0.92 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2022.

Cash on hand at September 30, 2023 was $9.9 million, compared to $20.5 million at December 31, 2022. Cash used in operating activities in the first nine months of 2023, inclusive of the HMC acquisition, was $10.5 million, compared to $11.0 million in the same period of 2022.
