Financial results for three months ended September 30, 2024

For the three months ended September 30, 2024 (the "reported period"), the Company reported a net loss of $13.6 million, compared to a net loss of $21.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 (which is referred as the "comparable period"), representing a decrease of $7.8 million. The decrease was largely due to a decrease of $7.4 million in expenses related to the impairment of Goodwill which were recorded in the comparable period.

The Company reported revenue of $3.0 million in the reported period, compared to $2.5 million in the comparable period. During the reported period, the Company generated revenue through teleradiology services, the sales of its Imaging devices and services and the sale of its AI solutions. 

The Company's gross loss during the reported period totaled $2.8 million (gross loss margin of 93%) on a GAAP basis, as compared to $1.7 million (gross loss margin of 67%) in the comparable period. Non-GAAP gross loss for the reported period was $0.2 million (gross loss margin of approximately 6%), as compared to Non-GAAP gross profit of $0.9 million (gross profit margin of approximately 37%) in the comparable period.

The Company's revenue from teleradiology services for the reported period was $2.6 million, compared to revenue of $2.2 million in the comparable period. The increase in the Company's revenue from teleradiology services was mainly attributable to customer retention and increased volume of the Company's reading services during the weekdays shifts.

The Company's GAAP gross profit from teleradiology services for the reported period was $0.3 million (gross profit margin of approximately 13%), compared to $0.2 million (gross profit margin of approximately 11%) in the comparable period. Non-GAAP gross profit of the Company's teleradiology services for the reported period was $0.9 million (gross profit margin of approximately 35%) compared to gross profit of $0.8 million (gross profit margin of approximately 36%) in the comparable period.

During the reported period the Company generated revenue through the sales and deployment of its imaging systems which amounted to $29 thousand for the reported period, with a gross loss of $1.5 million on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis compared to revenue of $99 thousand with a gross profit of $36 thousand (gross profit margin of approximately 37%) on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis in the comparable period. The revenue stems from the sale and deployment of our 2D systems in Africa and our Nanox.ARC systems in the U.S.

The Company's revenue from its AI solutions for the reported period was $0.4 million with a gross loss of $1.6 million on a GAAP basis, compared to revenue of $141 thousand with a gross loss of $1.9 million in the comparable period. Non-GAAP gross profit of the Company's AI solutions for the reported period was $0.4 million, compared to $0.1 million in the comparable period.

Research and development expenses, net, for the reported period were $4.7 million, compared to $6.0 million in the comparable period, reflecting a decrease of $1.3 million. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease of $0.3 million in salaries and wages and a decrease of $0.4 million in share-based compensation and $0.6 million in expenses related to our research and development activities.

Sales and marketing expenses for the reported period were $0.9 million compared to $1.1 in the comparable period.

General and administrative expenses for the reported period were $5.7 million, compared to $5.0 million in the comparable period. The increase of $0.7 million was mainly due to an increase of $0.5 million in share-based compensation, increase in our legal expenses in the amount of $0.5 million which was offset by a decrease in the cost of the directors' and officers' liability insurance premium in the amount of $0.3 million.

Non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shares for the reported period was $8.7 million, compared to $9.4 million in the comparable period. The decrease of $0.7 million was mainly due to a decrease in non-GAAP operating expenses of $1.8 which was offset by a decrease of $1.1 million in our non-GAAP gross profit.

Non-GAAP gross loss for the reported period was $0.2 million, compared to a Non-GAAP gross profit of $0.9 million in the comparable period. Non-GAAP research and development expenses, net for the reported period, were $4.0 million, compared to $4.9 million in the comparable period. Non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses for the reported period were $0.6 million, compared to $0.9 million in the comparable period. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses for the reported and comparable periods were $4.5 million.

The difference between the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures above is mainly attributable to amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, change in contingent earnout liability, impairment of Goodwill, expenses related to an offering and legal fees in connection with the class-action litigation and the SEC investigation. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures for the three- and nine-months periods ended September 30, 2024, and 2023 is provided in the financial results that are part of this press release.
