Fourth Quarter2021 Financial Results
Revenue was $15.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, a 177% increase over the prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by our handheld revenue that increased $8.2 million or 262% mainly related to shipments to the US Army under our multi-year purchase order. Desktop revenue grew 53% year over year because of both increased device sales and increased recurring revenue.
The install base grew to 1,935 placements with 221 devices placed in Q4 2021. The increase in devices was driven primarily by continued adoption of our handheld devices.
Gross profit was $9.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $2.6 million for the corresponding prior year period. Product and service gross margin was 58%, as compared to 49% for the corresponding prior year period. The increase in product and service gross margin was primarily driven by the increase in device sales and the volume leverage across our fixed infrastructure.
Operating expenses were $12.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $6.5 million for the corresponding prior year period. This increase was driven by headcount expansion across our business and an increase in marketing activities, consulting and travel expenses, as well as an increase in stock based compensation.
