ST. LOUIS, March 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stereotaxis (NYSE: STXS), a pioneer and global leader in surgical robotics for minimally invasive endovascular intervention, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.

“The past year saw tremendous progress with significant regulatory approvals globally, advancement of a broad pipeline of innovations, and revenue growth of over 20%. I’m proud of what our team has accomplished and excited for the year ahead,” said David Fischel, Chairman and CEO.

“The highlight of the past year was achieving regulatory approvals in the United States and Europe for the GenesisX robot, MAGiC ablation catheter, and MAGiC Sweep high density mapping catheter. This core product portfolio serves as a foundation for significant commercial growth as the only robotic technology in the attractive electrophysiology market.”

“The commercial contribution from these new products was modest in 2025 as we worked through challenges in ramping manufacturing of MAGiC and GenesisX. Our primary goals this year are to demonstrate the commercial success of these products, ramp manufacturing substantially, and progress a robust pipeline of additional innovations. These are being advanced in a methodical and financially prudent fashion.”

Stereotaxis is focused on four key milestones this year:

1. GenesisX Robot – Establish at least five active GenesisX programs with global Electrophysiology key opinion leaders and demonstrate the accessibility of GenesisX with rapid installations in existing labs.
2. MAGiC & MAGiC Sweep Catheters – Ramp manufacturing of MAGiC to five hundred catheters a month by year end, transition Stereotaxis’ electrophysiology customers to MAGiC and MAGiC Sweep, and launch MAGiC with Pulsed Field Ablation in Europe.
3. Endovascular Robotics – Demonstrate a comprehensive strategy for technological leadership in robotics across interventional cardiology and neurointerventions.
4. Synchrony Digital Surgery Suite – Receive FDA approval for our digital solution for the endovascular surgical suite, deliver over $3 million in revenue, and complete development of the first AI features.

“This will be a busy and important year during which we establish manufacturing and commercial capabilities that support substantial revenue growth over a sustained multi-year period. In parallel, we continue to advance a robust pipeline of innovations in electrophysiology, endovascular robotics, and digital solutions that will increasingly reach development, regulatory and commercial milestones.”

2025 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Results
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $8.6 million, a 36% increase compared to $6.3 million in the prior year fourth quarter. System revenue for the quarter was $3.3 million and recurring revenue was $5.3 million, compared to $1.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively, in the prior year fourth quarter. System revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 primarily reflects partial revenue recognition on two Genesis robots. Recurring revenue reflects contributions from MAGiC Sweep in the US and MAGiC in Europe. Revenue for the full year 2025 totaled $32.4 million, a 20% increase compared to $26.9 million in 2024. For the full year 2025, system revenue grew 18% to $10.2 million and recurring revenue grew 21% to $22.2 million. System backlog at the start of 2026 is $9.1 million.

Gross margin for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 were approximately 50% and 53% of revenue, respectively. Full year 2025 gross margins were 67% for recurring revenue and 21% for system revenue. Recurring gross margins were impacted by acquisition-related accounting that temporarily reduced disposable margin and by lower initial margins on newly launched devices. System gross margins remain impacted by fixed overhead allocated over low production levels. Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of $10.0 million include $3.0 million of 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 in the quarter were $7.0 million. Adjusted operating expenses for the full year 2025 were $26.3 million, compared to $27.0 million in the prior year.

Operating loss and net loss in the fourth quarter of 2025 were ($5.6) million and ($5.5) million, respectively, compared to ($7.6) million and ($7.5) million in the previous year. Adjusted operating loss and adjusted net loss for the quarter, excluding non-cash charges, were ($2.6) million and ($2.5) million, respectively, compared to ($3.8) million and ($3.6) million in the previous year. For the full year 2025, adjusted operating loss of ($9.3) million and adjusted net loss of ($8.8) million compared to an adjusted operating loss of ($12.4) million and an adjusted net loss of ($11.7) million in the prior year.

Cash Balance and Liquidity
At December 31, 2025, Stereotaxis had cash and cash equivalents of $13.4 million and no debt. During the fourth quarter, Stereotaxis raised $3.1 million through its at-the-market offering at an average stock price of $3.17.

Forward Looking Expectations
Stereotaxis anticipates double digit revenue growth for the full year 2026. Both system and recurring revenue are expected to increase over the course of the year in line with manufacturing ramps for GenesisX and MAGiC. Annual revenue is expected to surpass $40 million. Accomplishment of the four milestones for the year will support accelerated growth in future years.

Growing recurring revenue and stable operating expenses support an expectation for reduced cash use in 2026 compared to 2025. Stereotaxis expects positive cash flow from working capital following an investment of $5.6 million in working capital in 2025. The Company expects its balance sheet to allow it to advance its transformative product ecosystem to market, fund its commercialization, and achieve profitability.
