EDAP Reports Strong Financial Results with Record First Quarter HIFU Revenue
Seventh Consecutive Quarter of Year-Over-Year HIFU Revenue Growth
- 78% Growth in First Quarter HIFU Revenue Year-Over-Year
- 53% Growth in First Quarter U.S. HIFU Procedures Year-Over-Year
- 83% Growth in First Quarter Focal One Shipments Year-Over-Year Demonstrating Strong Momentum
- Landmark HIFI-2 Study Results Further Strengthen Focal One Robotic HIFU Market Position
AUSTIN, Texas, May 7, 2026 - EDAP TMS SA (Nasdaq: EDAP), the global leader in robotic energy-based therapies, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2026.
“We delivered our strongest HIFU quarter to date, with revenue of $11.6 million, representing 78% year over year growth. U.S. Focal One procedure volumes reached a record high for the company with 53% year over year growth. We are executing well against our 2026 priorities and our results reflect a growing HIFU business. This includes expanded capital sales in key markets along with notable increased utilization across our global installed base,” said Ryan Rhodes, Chief Executive Officer. “Internationally, we secured capital sales in the United Kingdom, France, and Hungary where, for the first time, hospitals are investing in Focal One Robotic HIFU to treat both prostate cancer and deep infiltrating endometriosis."
As previously announced, the landmark HIFI-2 study, published in European Urology Oncology, represents the largest prospective study to date evaluating salvage HIFU treatment following recurrence after failed radiation therapy. The positive study results show promise for use of Focal One HIFU as a breakthrough treatment for this important population of men who have previously been left with limited options that result in long-lasting, debilitating side effects. The publication of the HIFI-2 study further reinforces Focal One’s unique position as a non-invasive, organ-sparing, and function-preserving treatment option for a patient population that has historically faced limited therapeutic alternatives beyond palliative care.
First Quarter 2026 Results
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Business
Total revenue in the HIFU business for the first quarter of 2026 was $11.6 million, compared to $6.5 million for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of 78% year over year. The Company sold eleven Focal One systems during the quarter, versus six system sales in the same period in 2025, representing a year-over-year growth of 83%. Worldwide disposables revenue grew 54% year over year, driven primarily by 53% growth in Focal One procedures in the U.S.
Non-Core Businesses (ESWL and Distribution)
Total revenue from the Company’s non-core businesses for the first quarter of 2026 was $6.2 million, compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2025. The year over year decline reflects the Company’s strategic decision to focus on the high-growth, high margin opportunity in focal therapy through its Focal One Robotic HIFU platform.
Company
Total worldwide revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $17.8 million, compared to $14.3 million for the same period in 2025. Gross profit margin on net sales was 45.7%, up from 42.0% for the same period in 2025. The margin improvement was primarily due to a favorable product-mix shift and better absorption of fixed costs, largely attributable to the growth of HIFU revenue.
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were $15.5 million, compared to $12.3 million for the same period in 2025.
Operating loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $7.4 million, compared to $6.3 million for the same period in 2025.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $9.1 million, or ($0.24) per share, compared to $7.4 million, or ($0.20) per share, for the same period in 2025.
2026 Financial Guidance
The Company is reiterating its previously issued revenue guidance. The Company's core HIFU business revenue is expected to be in the range of $50.0 million to $54.0 million, representing 34% to 45% year-over-year growth. Revenue for the Company’s combined non-core ESWL and Distribution business is expected to be in the range of $22.0 million to $26.0 million.
