Iridex Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., August 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Iridex Corporation (Nasdaq: IRIX), a worldwide leader providing innovative and versatile laser-based medical systems, delivery devices, and accessories for the treatment of glaucoma and retinal diseases, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 4, 2026.
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
“Our second quarter results were highlighted by the continued momentum in our glaucoma business and operating positive cash flows,” said Patrick Mercer, President and CEO of Iridex. “Cyclo G6 probe volume increased by approximately 35%, with this lifting G6 product family revenue by 19% compared to the prior year. This strong performance on the glaucoma side of the business, together with our continued success in controlling costs resulted in positive cash flow in the quarter. Our strong performance in glaucoma was offset by a weaker quarter in retina, due primarily to disruptions impacting the Middle East and reduced sell through in China. As we advance international regulatory approvals, we expect to improve overall retina performance driven by our flagship Pascal platform.”
“We are continuing to make significant progress transforming our business, including the transfer of production to lower cost contract manufacturers and relocation of our headquarters to a lower cost facility. We expect this restructuring of the business will help us to achieve sustained long-term profitability” Mr. Mercer continued.
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Total revenue for the three months ended July 4, 2026 was $12.6 million, representing a decline of 7% compared to the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in revenue was primarily driven by lower retina product sales, partially offset by continued growth in glaucoma probe sales. Total retina product revenue was $6.5 million compared to $8.0 million in the prior year period. The decline was isolated to our retina portfolio and driven entirely by temporary, external headwinds—including international commercial transitions and regulatory approval related factors. Total product revenue from the Cyclo G6 product family was $3.9 million, representing growth of 19% compared to $3.3 million in the prior year period, driven by strong Cyclo G6 probe demand. Other revenue was $2.2 million, essentially flat compared to $2.2 million in the prior year period.
Gross margin in the second quarter of 2026 was 34.2%, relatively flat compared to a gross margin of 34.5% in the prior year period.
Operating expenses were $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 5%, compared to $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower general and administrative expenses, as a result of the administrative function transfer initiative announced in prior periods.
Net loss was $1.3 million, or $0.07 per share, for the second quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.06 per share, in the same period of the prior year.
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss for the second quarter of 2026 was $0.4 million, compared to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $21 thousand for the second quarter of 2025.
Cash and cash equivalents as of July 4, 2026 were $4.7 million, an increase of $0.1 million compared to April 4, 2026.
2026 Financial Outlook
The Company is reaffirming its annual revenue guidance for the full year 2026 of between $51 million and $53 million. Updating on cash flows for the full year, the Company plans to use more of its working capital to procure additional inventory in anticipation of transitioning to its new headquarters and production facility. The additional inventory will better secure international product supply chains and protect distributor revenue streams against the potential of interruptions related to obtaining required international regulatory approvals following the Company’s relocating its headquarters later this year.
The Company continues to expect fiscal year 2026 adjusted operating expenses, which exclude depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation, to be in the range of $19 million to $19.5 million.

Safe Harbor Statement
This announcement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, including those statements concerning commercial trends, market adoption and expansion, expectations regarding profitability, demand for and utilization of the Company's products, financial results and forecasts and expected sales volumes. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results may differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. Please see a detailed description of these and other risks further described in the “Risk Factors” section of Iridex’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as in Iridex’s other reports filed with or furnished to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), available at www.sec.gov. Forward-looking statements contained in this announcement are made as of this date and will not be updated.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various performance measures. In addition to Iridex’s GAAP results, we consider Adjusted EBITDA. This
non-GAAP result should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net cash provided by operating activities, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. We present this non-GAAP result because management considers it to be an important supplemental measure of Iridex’s performance and refers to such measures when analyzing Iridex’s strategy and operations.
In calculating the above non-GAAP result: Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and share-based compensation, as well as excluding certain other non-GAAP adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA exclude from their GAAP equivalents items listed below:
Management adjusts for the above items because management believes that, in general, these items possess one or more of the following characteristics: their magnitude and timing is unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course; they are unusual and we do not expect them to occur in the ordinary course of business; or they are non-operational or non-cash expenses involving stock compensation plans or other items.
A detailed reconciliation between Iridex’s non-GAAP and GAAP financial results is set forth in the financial tables at the end of this press release. Investors are advised to carefully review and consider this information strictly as a supplement to the GAAP results that are contained in this press release as well as in Iridex’s other reports filed with or furnished to the SEC.
