STAAR Surgical Reports Third Quarter 2025 Results

STAAR Surgical Reports Third Quarter 2025 Results LAKE FOREST, CA, November 5, 2025 --- STAAR Surgical Company (NASDAQ: STAA), the global leader in phakic IOLs with the EVO family of Implantable Collamer® Lenses (EVO ICL™) for vision correction, today reported results for the third quarter ended September 26, 2025. Third Quarter 2025 Financial Overview • Net sales of $94.7 million up 6.9% Y/Y • Net sales included $25.9 million related to the previously disclosed December 2024 ICL shipment that was subject to extended payment terms, and which was paid in full during the third quarter 2025 pursuant to such payment terms (the “December China Shipment”) • Net sales excluding China of $38.9 million up 7.7% Y/Y • Gross margin at 82.2% vs. 77.3% year ago due to the timing of the recognition of the cost of sales associated with the December China Shipment and decreased period costs resulting from cost reductions implemented in the first quarter of 2025 • Net income of $8.9 million or $0.18 per share, down from net income of $10.0 million or $0.20 per share year ago • Adjusted EBITDA1 of $34.6 million or $0.68 per share, up from Adjusted EBITDA of $16.2 million or $0.33 per share year ago Third Quarter 2025 Results Net sales were $94.7 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $88.6 million in the prior year quarter and $44.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. Net sales for the three months ended September 26, 2025, included $25.9 million related to the previously disclosed December China Shipment, which was paid in full during the third quarter of 2025. The year over year increase in net sales was primarily driven by the December China Shipment combined with 7.7% growth in net sales outside China, partially offset by lower new orders from distributors in China during the third quarter of 2025, due in part to leaner inventory management during the quarter. Excluding China, net sales were $38.9 million, an increase of 7.7% as compared to $36.1 million in the prior year quarter. As previously disclosed, the Company shipped $27.5 million of ICLs in December 2024 to one of its distributors in China for which the distributor requested extended payment terms through September 2025. Given the extended payment terms, net sales for the shipment were not recognized by the Company until payments were received. The Company recognized $1.6 million related to this shipment in the second quarter of 2025 and the remaining $25.9 million in the third quarter of 2025, in each case upon receipt of corresponding payment. While the remaining $25.9 million related to the shipment was recognized in full during the third quarter of 2025, the associated ICL procedures took place throughout 2025. Sales for the nine months ended September 26,2025 were lower than the prior year period as distributors in China reduced their inventory by approximately $80 million to $85 million (inclusive of the $27.5 million December China Shipment) instead of purchasing new product from the Company. 1 Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2025 was 82.2% of total net sales compared to the prior year quarter of 77.3% of total net sales and 74.0% of total net sales in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in gross profit margin versus the prior year quarter was due primarily to timing of the recognition of the cost of sales associated with the December China Shipment. The cost of sales for the December China Shipment was recognized in December 2024 when product was shipped, and net sales of $25.9 million was recognized upon payment in September 2025 at 100% gross margin. The increase in gross margin was also due in part to decreased period costs, as a result of cost reductions implemented in the first quarter of 2025. Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $59.4 million, compared to $62.8 million in the prior year quarter. Operating expenses for the quarter included costs related to the Company’s merger with Alcon of $5.9 million. The year over year decrease in operating expenses was driven by cost optimization efforts that primarily took place in the first half of 2025. General and administrative expenses were $20.8 million compared to $21.7 million in the prior year quarter and $21.0 million in the second quarter of 2025. The year over year decrease was primarily due to decreased outside services and facilities costs, partially offset by increased compensation related expenses. Selling and marketing expenses were $23.5 million compared to $28.9 million in the prior-year quarter, and $26.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. The year over year decrease was due to lower advertising and promotional spending during the third quarter of 2025 and as a result of costs and charges in the prior year period associated with the opening of the Company’s new experience center, partially offset by increased compensation related expenses. Research and development expenses were $9.2 million compared to $12.2 million in the prior year quarter and $10.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. The year over year decrease is the result of purchases of in-process research and development in the prior year period related to external AI tools for measurement and lens size selection. Operating income for the third quarter of 2025 was $18.5 million compared to $5.7 million in the prior year quarter. Income taxes for the third quarter of 2025 were $9.9 million, compared to $3.2 million in the prior year quarter. The year over year increase in income taxes is due to the reversal of income tax benefits recorded in the first six months of 2025 as a result of the recognition in the third quarter of 2025 of the $25.9 million of net sales for the December China Shipment. Net income for the third quarter of 2025 was $8.9 million or $0.18 per diluted share, down from net income of $10.0 million or $0.20 per diluted share for the prior year quarter. The year over year decrease in net income was primarily attributable to lower other income, net and higher income taxes, offset by higher net sales, gross profit and reduced operating expenses. Cash, cash equivalents and investments available for sale at September 26, 2025, totaled $192.7 million, compared to $189.9 million at the end of the second quarter of 2025. The Company had no outstanding debt. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 115,000 shares of its common stock for a total cost of $2.0 million under its $30 million share repurchase program announced in May 2025, with an average purchase price of $17.20. For the nine months ended September 26, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 376,000 shares of its common stock for a total cost of approximately $6.5 million. The average purchase price per share was $17.20. As of September 26, 2025, approximately $23.5 million remained available under the current authorization. 2 Due to the pending acquisition of the Company by Alcon Inc., the Company will not host a conference call to review its third quarter 2025 results. 1 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per share are non-GAAP financial measures. For further information on non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release. Please also refer to the tables at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the Company’s financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables include certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its evaluation of Company operating performance and believes investors will find them useful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance, including cash flow generation, and in analyzing period-to-period financial performance of core business operations and underlying business trends. Non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by adding interest income and expense, net; provision for income taxes; and depreciation and amortization to net income. In calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share, the Company further adjusts for stock-based compensation expense, restructuring, impairment and related charges, and commencing with the third quarter ended September 26, 2025, merger transaction and related costs. As stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense can assist investors in comparisons of Company operating results with other peer companies because (i) the amount of such expense in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations and (ii) such expense can vary significantly between periods as a result of the timing of grants of new stock-based awards, including inducement grants in connection with hiring. Additionally, the Company believes that excluding stock-based compensation from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share assists management and investors in making meaningful comparisons between the Company’s operating performance and the operating performance of other companies that may use different forms of employee compensation or different valuation methodologies for their stock-based compensation. Investors should note that stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to employees whose efforts contributed to the operating results in the periods presented and are expected to contribute to operating results in future periods. Investors should also note that such expenses will recur in the future. The Company believes that restructuring, impairment and related charges are not indicative of the underlying operating expense profile for the Company. These charges, which include costs related to severance, reduction in force and consulting expenses, impairment expenses on leasehold improvements and machinery and equipment, impairment on real property right-of use assets, and impairment of internally developed software, are anticipated to be completed within a finite period of time and can vary significantly in any specific period. The Company believes that excluding restructuring, impairment and related charges from Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to more consistently analyze period-to-period financial performance of its core business operations and better assess the Company’s current and future continuing operations. Similarly, the Company believes that merger transaction and related costs are not indicative of the underlying operating expense profile for the Company and that excluding such costs from Adjusted 3 EBITDA allows investors to more consistently analyze period-to-period financial performance of its core business. The Company also presents certain financial information on a constant currency basis, which is intended to exclude the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. The Company conducts a significant part of its activities outside the U.S. It receives sales revenue and pays expenses principally in U.S. dollars, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and euros. The exchange rates between dollars and non-U.S. currencies can fluctuate greatly and can have a significant effect on the Company’s results when reported in U.S. dollars. In order to compare the Company's performance from period to period without the effect of currency, the Company will apply the same average exchange rate applicable in the prior period, or the “constant currency” rate to sales or expenses in the current period as well. In the tables provided below, the Company has included a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per diluted share to net income (loss) and net income (loss) per diluted share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as supplemental financial information with net sales expressed in constant currency.

(5) As previously disclosed, in December 2024 the Company shipped $27.5 million of ICLs to one of its distributors in China (the “December China Shipment”). The December China Shipment was subject to extended payment terms and was paid in full during Q3 FY25 pursuant to such payment terms. Cost of sales for the December China Shipment of $3.9 million was recognized upon shipment in Q4 FY24. Net sales for the December China Shipment were recognized as payments were received, with $1.6 million and $25.9 million of net sales recognized in Q2 FY25 and Q3 FY25, respectively, at 100% gross margin. If the cost of sales was recognized during the same period as the corresponding net sales, cost of sales related to the December China Shipment would have been $0.2 million and $3.7 million in Q2 FY25 and Q3 FY25, respectively. 9 Sales by Geography (in 000's) Unaudited Fiscal Year Three Months Ended Sales by Region(1) 2022 2023 2024 September 27, 2024 December 27, 2024 March 28, 2025 June 27, 2025 September 26, 2025 Americas(2) $ 19,798 $ 22,315 $ 25,229 $ 6,029 $ 6,387 $ 6,739 $ 7,307 $ 7,211 EMEA(3) 40,832 40,063 43,511 9,614 12,286 13,110 11,436 10,364 APAC(4) 223,761 260,037 245,161 72,947 30,277 22,740 25,577 77,157 Global Sales $ 284,391 $ 322,415 $ 313,901 $ 88,590 $ 48,950 $ 42,589 $ 44,320 $ 94,732 Global Sales Growth 23 % 13 % (3 )% 10 % (36 )% (45 )% (55 )% 7 % Americas Sales Growth 33 % 13 % 13 % 10 % 20 % 9 % 10 % 20 % EMEA Sales Growth (2 )% (2 )% 9 % 12 % 7 % 16 % 11 % 8 % APAC Sales Growth 28 % 16 % (6 )% 10 % (49 )% (62 )% (69 )% 6 % Global ICL Unit Growth 33 % 19 % (6 )% 6 % (39 )% (48 )% (63 )% 9 % Fiscal Year Three Months Ended Sales by Country(5) 2022 2023 2024 September 27, 2024 December 27, 2024 March 28, 2025 June 27, 2025 September 26, 2025 China $ 148,199 $ 184,569 $ 162,287 $ 52,468 $ 7,823 $ (877 ) $ 5,299 $ 55,833 Growth 38 % 25 % (12 )% 10 % (81 )% (102 )% (92 )% 6 % Japan $ 43,096 $ 38,468 $ 41,841 $ 10,534 $ 10,963 $ 11,395 $ 10,915 $ 11,226 Growth 5 % (11 )% 9 % 15 % 10 % 9 % 10 % 7 % South Korea $ 17,936 $ 19,880 $ 21,636 $ 5,096 $ 5,880 $ 7,522 $ 4,293 $ 5,491 Growth 18 % 11 % 9 % 5 % 17 % 12 % 9 % 8 % United States $ 14,679 $ 17,221 $ 19,896 $ 4,681 $ 4,881 $ 5,459 $ 5,635 $ 5,632 Growth 46 % 17 % 16 % 12 % 17 % 11 % 4 % 20 % Global Sales Ex China $ 136,192 $ 137,846 $ 151,614 $ 36,122 $ 41,127 $ 43,466 $ 39,021 $ 38,899 Growth 10 % 1 % 10 % 11 % 14 % 12 % 10 % 8 % Notes: (1) Certain adjustments have been reclassed from EMEA to APAC.
