SAN RAFAEL, Calif., April 27, 2023 -- Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EKSO) (the “Company” or “Ekso Bionics”), an industry leader in exoskeleton technology for medical and industrial use, today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Recent Highlights and Accomplishments
•Achieved record revenues of $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2023, up 61% from the first quarter of 2022
•Delivered products across continuum of care following the addition of the Indego® product line
•Booked a total of 23 EksoHealth devices in the first quarter of 2023
•Cash position of $16.3 million at March 31, 2023
“Driven by the continued execution of our commercial strategy, we are proud to have achieved our strongest revenue quarter to-date,” said Scott Davis, Chief Executive Officer of Ekso Bionics. “Record first quarter revenues reflect our team’s success in securing multi-unit orders with large network operators, as well as contributions from our recently acquired Indego product line. Now that we have an expanded product offering across the continuum of care, we look to build upon our positive momentum to drive long-term growth.”
First Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenue was $4.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, an increase of 61% compared to $2.6 million for the same period in 2022. The Company booked a total of 23 EksoHealth devices in the first quarter of 2023.
Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 was $2.0 million, an increase of 65% from the same period in 2022, representing a gross margin of approximately 49% in the first quarter of 2023, compared to a gross margin of 47% for the same period in 2022. The overall increase in gross margin was primarily due to an increase in EksoHealth device sales and lower device costs.
Sales and marketing expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $2.1 million, compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher compensation costs associated with the acquisition of the Human Motion Control (“HMC”) business unit and an increase in marketing activities.
Research and development expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $1.2 million, compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher costs associated with the acquisition of HMC.
General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $3.2 million, compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to HMC related audit and integration costs partially offset by lower severance costs.
Net loss applicable to common stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 was $4.4 million, or $0.33 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $4.6 million, or $0.36 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2022.
Cash on hand at March 31, 2023 was $16.3 million, compared to $20.5 million at December 31, 2022.
