Ekso Bionics Reports Annual Revenue of $18.3 Million

 

Sold Record Number of Annual EksoHealth Units in 2023

 

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., March 4, 2024 -- Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EKSO) (the “Company”), an industry leader in exoskeleton technology for medical and industrial use, today reported financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

 

Recent Highlights and Accomplishments

 

 

Achieved record revenue of $18.3 million for the 2023 full year, an increase of 42% year-over-year

 

Sold a total of  151 EksoHealth units for the 2023 full year

 

Launched GaitCoach software for EksoNR

 

Announced net proceeds of $3.9 million from a registered direct offering in January 2024

 

“We are excited to have closed 2023 with record revenues driven by strong demand for our EksoHealth devices and expanded offerings across the continuum of care from hospital to home,” said Scott Davis, Chief Executive Officer of Ekso Bionics. “In support of our mission, we remain focused on expanding the reach of our exoskeleton devices to patients who can benefit the most. We believe the combination of our robust exoskeleton portfolio and the positive traction of our scalable commercial strategy position us well to drive long-term growth.”

 

Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenue was $4.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, an increase of 36% compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2022. The Company sold a total of 38 EksoHealth units in the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

Gross profit for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was $2.4 million, an increase of 41% from the same period in 2022, representing a gross margin of approximately 49% in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to a gross margin for the same period in 2022 of 47%. The increase in gross profit and gross margin was primarily due to lower device and service costs.

 

Sales and marketing expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 were $2.0 million, compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount associated with the acquisition of the Human Motion Control (“HMC”) business unit from Parker Hannifin Corporation.

 

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 were $1.3 million, compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount and an increase in research activity associated with the acquisition of HMC.

 

General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 were $2.5 million, compared to $3.2 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the absence of acquisition costs associated with HMC.

 

Net loss applicable to common stockholders for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was $3.2 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $3.2 million, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2022. Operating cash burn was $1.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

Full Year 2023 Financial Results 
Revenue for the full year ended December 31, 2023 was $18.3 million, an increase of 42% compared to $12.9 million for the same period in 2022. The Company sold a total of 151 EksoHealth units in 2023.

 

Gross profit for the full year ended December 31, 2023 was $9.1 million, representing a gross margin of approximately 50%, compared to gross profit of $6.2 million for the same period in 2022, representing a gross margin of 48%. The increase in gross profit was a result of lower device costs.

 

Sales and marketing expenses for the full year ended December 31, 2023 were $8.5 million, compared to $7.2 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount associated with the acquisition of HMC.

 

Research and development expenses for the full year ended December 31, 2023 were $5.0 million, compared to $3.6 million in the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount and an increase in research activity associated with the acquisition of HMC.

 

General and administrative expenses for the full year ended December 31, 2023 were $10.7 million, compared to $11.0 million in the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the absence of expenses incurred in 2022 associated with the acquisition of HMC, partially offset by an increase in audit services incurred in 2023 in connection with HMC.

 

Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the full year ended December 31, 2023 was $15.2 million, or $1.10 per basic and diluted share, compared to $15.1 million, or $1.16 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2022.

 

Cash on hand at December 31, 2023 was $8.6 million, compared to $20.5 million at December 31, 2022. In January 2024, the Company closed a registered direct offering, resulting in total net proceeds of approximately $3.9 million. 

 

For the full year ended December 31, 2023, the Company used $12.1 million of cash in operations, compared to $14.7 million for the same period in 2022. 

 

Update on Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) Payment Determination for Ekso Indego Personal
On February 29, 2024, CMS announced that it has deferred payment determination for personal exoskeletons, including the Ekso Indego Personal. CMS requested additional examples of non-Medicare payer data that would support a payment determination for products that qualify under Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (“HCPCS”) code K1007. Ekso intends to provide pricing documentation to CMS as soon as possible and looks forward to its continued work with CMS. Until a reimbursement rate has been established, individual claims will be processed on a case-by-case basis.
