What management says matters

Persistent and emerging business drivers

Capital investment and capacitymixed · 5 filings
System sales tend to be higher in the fourth quarter and lower in the first quarter, we believe due to the availability of residual funding for capital expenditures prior to the end of many end users’ fiscal years.

Results of Operations The following table presents our results of operations for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended March 31, (in thousands, except percentages) 2026 2025 Change Revenue $ 74,250 $ 74,277 $ (27 ) Gross profit $ 36,459 $ 36,681 $ (222 ) Gross margin 49.1 % 49.4 % (0.3 )% Loss from operations $ (15,168 ) $ (9,569 ) $ (5,599 ) Three months ended March 31, 2026 compared with three months ended March 31, 2025 Revenue and gross profit decreased, due primarily to decreased systems revenue partially offset by higher endpoint IC revenue.

Three months ended March 31, 2026 compared with three months ended March 31, 2025 Endpoint IC revenue increased $2.0 million, due to a $7.9 million increase in shipment volumes offset by a $5.9 million decrease from lower ASP due to product mix and new customer pricing that went into effect at the beginning of the year.

Three months ended March 31, 2026 compared with three months ended March 31, 2025 Gross profit and gross margin decreased, due primarily to higher indirect costs in the current year compared to the prior-year period and revenue mix, partially offset by higher endpoint IC gross margin due to product mix.
