Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Revenue for the second quarter of 2016 was $1.6 million compared to $2.1 million for the same period in the prior year.

Medical device revenue was $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2016. This amount includes $1.1 million for all device sales and $0.4 million of other device related revenue. Medical device revenue was $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2015. This second quarter 2015 amount included $0.9 million of previously deferred revenue that was recognized during the period and $0.1 million of other device related revenue.

Engineering service revenue was $0.1 million for the second quarter 2016 compared to $1.1 million for the same period in the prior year. This result reflects the strategic decision earlier in the year to shift almost all of our engineering talent away from engineering services and to Ekso internal development efforts both for our next generation home/wellness device and for able-bodied industrial offerings.

Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 of $0.2 million was primarily derived from the sale of medical devices. This amount includes a gross profit of $0.5 million based on medical device sales and rentals and a loss of $0.3 million on device service and pilot programs.

Operating expenses were $7.6 million for the second quarter of 2016 compared to $6.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in operating expenses included a $0.6 million increase in employee compensation expenses, $0.4 million of labor expenses diverted to product innovation from cost of engineering service revenue, and $0.1 million of amortization expenses that resulted from acquiring assets from Equipois in December 2015.

Net loss applicable to common shareholders in the second quarter of 2016 was $10.0 million, or $0.61 per basic and diluted share. Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the quarter included a non-cash preferred share deemed dividend of $4.2 million, offset by a non-cash gain of $1.7 million on the revaluation of a warrant liability.  Both non-cash items were associated with the Company’s equity financing in December 2015.

Six months ended June 30, 2016:

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $10.0 million compared to $3.8 million for the same period in the prior year. Revenue for the 2016 period includes $6.5 million of revenue resulting from a one-time non-cash recognition of previously deferred medical device revenue for devices sold prior to 2016.

Medical device revenue was $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Contributing to this revenue was $6.5 million of previously deferred revenue that was recognized as a result of a change of an accounting estimate related to revenue recognition. Revenue for the period also includes $2.3 million of revenue derived from device sales, as well as $0.7 million of other device related revenues.

In conjunction with the aforementioned shift in focus of engineering efforts, engineering services revenue decreased by $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $1.7 million, of which $1.6 million was attributable to device sales. Device sales gross profit primarily includes $2.4 million from our change in accounting estimate for shipments made prior to January 1, 2016 and $0.9 million for unit sales or rentals, offset primarily by $0.9 million of maintenance and $0.2 million of warranty expenses, both of which relate to devices sold prior to 2016.

Operating expenses were $15.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $10.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in operating expenses included a $2.8 million increase in compensation expense, $1.3 million of which was stock-based compensation expense and $0.4 million was related to severance. Stock-based compensation expense included a one-time $0.8 million non-cash charge related to the modification of stock options previously granted to our former Chief Executive Officer.

Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $16.7 million, or $1.06 per basic and diluted share. Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the period included a non-cash preferred share deemed dividend of $7.3 million, offset by a non-cash gain of $4.7 million on the revaluation of a warrant liability.  Both non-cash items were associated with the Company’s equity financing in December 2015.

Cash on hand at June 30, 2016 was $4.7 million, compared to $19.6 million at December 31, 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company used $14.1 million of cash in operations, compared to $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in cash used was driven by general increases in operating expenses such as selling, marketing and research and development, as the Company continues to build its team and capabilities and commercialize its medical and industrial device businesses. The increase also includes a one-time increase in inventory, as well as some investment in certain inventory which is expected to reverse over the next few quarters.
