Reports 2022 First Quarter Financial Results
LOUIS, May 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Stereotaxis (NYSE: STXS), a pioneer and global leader in surgical robotics for
minimally invasive endovascular intervention, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.
demonstrated continued progress on capital adoption despite a challenging macro environment," said David Fischel, Chairman and
CEO. "We are focused on improving our internal commercial capabilities while navigating the external challenges and aggressively
advancing the innovations that structurally transform our commercial opportunity."
the first quarter, we successfully launched new robotic practices with physicians entirely new to our technology in each of the United
States, Europe, and China. We are delighted to see utilization at these practices, and across the installed base of Genesis systems,
far above global averages. Since our last call we received an additional order for a Genesis system. We continue to expect multiple near-term
orders and remain confident in our guidance of annual revenue growth driven by adoption of Genesis."
are methodically advancing a robust innovation pipeline including a novel accessible robot, proprietary ablation catheters, vascular
navigation devices, and operating room connectivity solution. Progress remains consistent with previously provided timelines and we look
forward to the impact these innovations will have in 2023 and beyond. Collectively, these technologies serve as the foundational product
ecosystem for a preeminent medical robotics company which can broadly transform endovascular interventions."
First Quarter Financial Results
for the first quarter of 2022 totaled $7.0 million compared to $8.6 million in the prior year first quarter. This decrease was primarily
due to lower system revenue in the current year. System revenue for the first quarter was $1.6 million and recurring revenue was $5.4
million, compared to $2.6 million and $5.8 million in the prior year first quarter.
margin for the first quarter of 2022 was approximately 70%. Recurring revenue gross margin of 85% remains consistent with previous quarters
and system gross margin of 21% continues to reflect significant allocation of overhead expenses over low manufacturing volumes. Operating
expenses in the first quarter of $9.0 million include $2.5 million in non-cash stock compensation expense. Excluding non-cash stock compensation
expense, adjusted operating expenses in the current quarter were $6.5 million, similar to adjusted operating expenses of $6.2 million
in the prior year first quarter.
loss and net loss for the first quarter of 2022 were both approximately ($4.1) million, compared to ($1.5) million for both in the previous
year. Adjusted operating loss and adjusted net loss for the quarter, excluding non-cash stock compensation expense, were ($1.6) million,
compared to ($0.1) million for both in the previous year. Negative free cash flow for the first quarter was ($3.3) million.
Balance and Liquidity
March 31, 2022, Stereotaxis had cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, of $36.9 million and no debt.
Looking Expectations
reiterates its expectation of revenue growth for the year driven by continued commercial adoption of the Genesis RMN system and stable
recurring revenue. System revenue for the year will be primarily recognized in the second half of the year. Stereotaxis expects to modestly
grow operating expenses with continued investment in key growth drivers, while maintaining a robust balance sheet that allows it to reach
profitability without the need for additional financings. Stereotaxis is methodically establishing the product ecosystems that allow
for significant future growth in electrophysiology and the broader field of endovascular surgery.
