Ekso Bionics Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

RICHMOND, Calif., April 28, 2022 -- 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 months ended March 31, 2022.

Recent Highlights and Accomplishments
Reported revenue of $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2022
Strong cash position of $36.2 million at March 31, 2022
Booked a total of 23 EksoNR units in the first quarter of 2022
Secured three multi-unit orders from top network providers, including the Company's largest order ever
“We had strong year-over-year revenue growth in the first quarter, reflecting solid execution of our commercial strategy,” said Steven Sherman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ekso Bionics. “During the quarter, we continued to gain traction with network operators. We are invigorated by multi-unit orders for our EksoNR exoskeleton devices. EksoHealth has significant backlog, in part due to the challenging supply chain environment. EksoWorks order flow is increasing, spurred by growing interest from new and current automotive and aerospace customers given the heightened focus on workplace productivity and safety benefits EVO provides. Looking ahead, we are optimistic about our industry, growth and strategy to drive sustained shareholder value.”

First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenue was $2.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 2021. Revenue in the first quarter of 2022 included approximately $1.9 million in EksoHealth revenue and approximately $0.7 million in EksoWorks sales. The Company booked a total of 23 EksoNR units in the first quarter of 2022.
Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was $1.2 million, a decrease of 2% from the same period in 2021, representing a gross margin of approximately 47% in the first quarter of 2022, compared to a gross margin for the same period in 2021 of 65%. The overall decrease in gross margin is primarily due to an increase in EksoHealth service costs, changes in product mix and increases in inventory costs, partially offset by the recognition of prepaid royalty revenue associated with a license and distribution agreement that expired.
Sales and marketing expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $1.6 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or approximately 9%, compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of reduced general marketing activities compared with the same period in the prior year.
Research and development expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $1.0 million, compared to $0.6 million for the same period in 2021. The $0.4 million increase was primarily due to an increase in product development activity expenses.
General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $2.8 million, compared to $2.0 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $0.8 million. The increase was primarily due to higher cash and noncash compensation expenses and severance expense.
Loss on warrant liabilities for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 associated with the revaluation of warrants issued in 2019, 2020 and 2021 was $0.1 million, compared to a de minimis gain associated with the revaluation of warrants issued in 2019, 2020 and 2021 for the same period in 2021.
