Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Total revenue increased 18% year-over-year for the quarter and 7% for the six-month period, driven primarily by increased procedure volume.
• Profitability Shift: The company reported a net income of $3.5 million for the quarter and $39.9 million for the six months, compared to net losses of $1.8 million and $29.1 million in the prior year periods.
• Non-Operating Drivers: The significant improvement in net income was primarily due to a $25.2 million gain from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities and a $10.0 million acquisition-related income from the retention of a merger deposit following the termination of the Merger Agreement with Alcon.
• Expense Reduction: Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by 47% for the quarter and 62% for the six months, largely due to the absence of acquisition-related costs incurred in the prior year related to the terminated merger.
• Tariff Impact: The company recorded a $1.15 million reduction in cost of goods sold due to IEEPA tariff refunds, partially offsetting inflationary cost increases from tariffs on imported components.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Liquidity: Management believes current cash, cash equivalents, and a new $10.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (entered into August 2026) are sufficient to fund operations for at least 12 months.
• Merger Termination: The Merger Agreement with Alcon was terminated in March 2026. The company retained the $10 million deposit but faces risks related to shareholder litigation and potential disruption to business operations and distributor relationships.
• Regulatory & Commercialization: Growth depends on the commercial success of the ALLY System, which has received FDA clearance and EU certification. The company is pursuing additional regulatory approvals in China and other jurisdictions.
• Supply Chain & Tariffs: The company faces risks from global supply chain disruptions, inflation, and tariffs on component parts. While some tariff refunds have been received, future cost increases may impact gross margins if not passed to customers.
• Capital Needs: The company expects to continue incurring operating losses and cash outflows in the near term and may need to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Verify the sustainability of the net income, noting it is heavily influenced by non-cash warrant liability adjustments and one-time merger deposit income rather than core operating cash flow.
• Confirm the status of the $10.0 million revolving credit facility entered in August 2026 and any covenants (e.g., minimum cash balance, EBITDA requirements) that could restrict operations.
• Monitor the progress of the ALLY System commercialization and the resumption of sales activity by international distributors following the merger termination.
• Assess the impact of ongoing tariff policies and supply chain constraints on gross margins and inventory levels.
• Review potential shareholder litigation risks arising from the terminated Merger Agreement with Alcon.
