Stereotaxis Reports 2026 First Quarter Financial Results & Business Updates

 

Proprietary robotically-navigated MAGiC catheter received U.S. FDA approval in January and is now being utilized at multiple sites across the United States as well as Europe
Synchrony digital operating room system received U.S. FDA clearance in April and initial orders and shipments are ongoing
Definitive agreement to acquire Robocath creates a leading robotic platform, combining complementary technologies to deliver next-generation fully-integrated robotic solutions for the full spectrum of endovascular procedures

 

St. Louis, MO, May 12, 2026 (Globe Newswire) – Stereotaxis (NYSE: STXS), a pioneer and global leader in surgical robotics for minimally invasive endovascular intervention, today reported business updates and financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

 

“Stereotaxis is in one of the most exciting periods of its history. We are achieving significant regulatory approvals, executing strategic acquisitions, and witnessing the initial green shoots of commercial success with our new product ecosystem,” said David Fischel, Stereotaxis Chairman and CEO. “The operational and commercial friction to ramp up manufacturing and implement new products makes progress gradual, but we are efficiently driving broad-based progress on many fronts in parallel towards an attractive business built on solid foundations.”

 

“The streak of regulatory success that began last year continued in the first part of this year with two essential FDA approvals for the MAGiC cardiac ablation catheter and Synchrony digital surgery system. These regulatory approvals brought to market an entirely new foundational product ecosystem that structurally changes our commercial opportunity. We essentially developed a fresh start-up company on the shoulders of our legacy technology and funded by our legacy business.”

 

“The transformational agreement to acquire Robocath gives Stereotaxis a fully complementary and separate robotic mechanism of action for endovascular device navigation. The combination of our technologies offers a clear vision for how our robotic solution, including the full ecosystem of digital innovations, will enable remote, automated and fully robotic treatment for electrophysiology, interventional cardiology and neurointerventions.”

 

“The still minor revenue contribution from our new catheters is being countered by the headwind of winding down our relationship with Johnson & Johnson. Demand for MAGiC far exceeds supply, and we are rolling out the catheter in both Europe and the US in line with the manufacturing ramp, which continues to progress towards an expected 500 catheters a month by year end. Initial green shoots of adoption demonstrate the strength of our strategy to build a synergistic portfolio of catheters, with disposable revenue per procedure several fold higher than previously. This structural transformation to our disposable business model is taking place as we simultaneously structurally transform our capital business and prepare for multiple GenesisX placements.”

 

2026 First Quarter Financial Results

 

Revenue for the first quarter of 2026 totaled $6.3 million compared to $7.5 million in the prior year first quarter. System revenue of $1.3 million and recurring revenue of $5.0 million compared to $2.0 million and $5.5 million respectively, in the prior year first quarter. System revenue in the quarter reflects partial revenue recognition on the installation of one Genesis system and other ancillary systems. Recurring revenue is pressured by the transition away from the dependency on legacy J&J catheters with still modest contributions from Stereotaxis’ new proprietary catheters.

 

 

 

 

Gross margin for the first quarter of 2026 was 60% of revenue. Recurring revenue gross margin was 66%, and system gross margin was 39%. Operating expenses in the quarter of $9.8 million included $3.1 million in non-cash charges for stock compensation expense, mark-to-market adjustment for acquisition related contingent earnout consideration, and amortization of acquired intangible assets. Excluding these non-cash charges, adjusted operating expenses were $6.7 million, compared to the prior year adjusted operating expenses of $6.8 million.

 

Operating loss and net loss in the first quarter of 2026 were ($6.0) million and ($5.9) million, respectively, compared with ($5.9) million and ($5.8) million in the previous year. Adjusted operating loss and adjusted net loss for the quarter, excluding non-cash charges, were ($2.9) million and ($2.8) million, respectively, compared with ($2.7) million and ($2.6) million in the previous year quarter. Negative free cash flow for the first quarter was ($3.5) million, compared to ($1.8) million in the previous year.

 

Cash Balance and Liquidity

 

At March 31, 2026, Stereotaxis had cash and cash equivalents of $14.6 million and no debt.

 

Forward Looking Expectations

 

Stereotaxis anticipates double digit revenue growth for the full year 2026, with annual revenue expected to surpass $40 million. Revenue will grow sequentially over the course of the year in line with manufacturing increases for GenesisX and MAGiC, with revenue in both the third and fourth quarters expected to exceed $10 million.

 

Stereotaxis believes it can advance its strategy, integrate Robocath, and grow significantly without having to subject investors to substantial dilution. The Company expects its balance sheet to allow it to advance its transformative product ecosystem to market, fund its commercialization, and achieve profitability.
