“STRATA made solid progress in the first quarter in executing our strategic plan,” said Dr. Dolev Rafaeli, STRATA President and CEO.  “Along with a modest increase in revenue, we have significantly improved our gross margins, expanding nearly 800 basis points year over year.  We have also maintained disciplined cost control resulting in a decline in operating expenses and improvement in our seasonally low first quarter adjusted EBITDA.

“Our existing direct-to-consumer (DTC) strategy continues to strengthen, driving 32% and 128% more unique Psoriasis and Acne patients respectively, as compared to prior year period demonstrating both growing demand and improved marketing efficiency.

“Internationally, we’re building strong momentum. Revenue from international markets grew 8% in Q1 as compared to prior year, following 41% growth in the previous quarter. This segment now accounts for 36% of our total revenue, and we anticipate, once the global tariff uncertainty clears  it will continue to grow, adding strong growth to our U.S. business stabilization and growth,” concluded Dr. Rafaeli.

Revenue for the first quarter of 2025 was $6.8 million, an increase of 1% versus the first quarter of 2024. Global recurring revenue of $4.7 million and equipment revenue of $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2025 were each up roughly 1% over the prior-year first quarter.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2025 was $3.6 million, or 53.5% of revenue, as compared to $3.1 million, or 45.6% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

STRATA has determined to supplement its consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), presented elsewhere within this report, with certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, which excludes the non-cash expense of amortization of acquired intangible assets classified as cost of revenues, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization.”


These non-GAAP disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for Gross Profit or Net Earnings (Loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. STRATA considers these non-GAAP measures in addition to its results prepared under current accounting standards, but they are not a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance readers’ overall understanding of STRATA’s current financial performance and to provide further information for comparative purposes. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to Gross Profit or Net Earnings (Loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Specifically, STRATA believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains, and losses that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results and business outlook. In addition, STRATA believes non-GAAP measures enhance the comparability of results against prior periods.

Reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release is as follows:

Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands) 2025 2024
Net loss $ (2,432 ) $ (3,368 )
Adjustments:
Depreciation and amortization 1,220 1,249
Amortization of operating lease right-of-use asset 85 95
Loss on disposal of property and equipment 34 13
Interest expense, net 417 479
Non-GAAP EBITDA (676 ) (1,532 )
Stock-based compensation 129 112
Inventory write-off - 141
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA $ (547 ) $ (1,279 )

XTRAC Gross Domestic Recurring Billings

XTRAC gross domestic recurring billings represent the amount invoiced to partner clinics when treatment codes are sold to the physician. It does not include normal GAAP adjustments, which are deferred revenue from prior quarters recorded as revenue in the current quarter, the deferral of revenue from the current quarter recorded as revenue in future quarters, adjustments for co-pay and other discounts. This excludes international recurring revenues.

The following is a reconciliation of non-GAAP XTRAC gross domestic billings to domestic recorded revenue for the first quarter of 2025 and 2024 (in thousands), respectively:


Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands) 2025 2024
Gross domestic recurring billings $ 4,086 $ 4,578
Co-Pay adjustments (74 ) (80 )
