MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Iridex Corporation (Nasdaq:IRIX), a worldwide leader providing innovative and versatile laser-based medical systems, delivery devices, and procedure probes for the treatment of glaucoma and retinal diseases, today announced preliminary unaudited operational and financial results for the first quarter ended March 29, 2025.
First Quarter 2025 Results
- Total revenue is expected to be between $11.8 million and $12.0 million, compared to $11.8 million in the comparable quarter of 2024
- Sold approximately 13,900 Cyclo G6 probes, compared to 13,300 in the prior year quarter
- Sold approximately 24 Cyclo G6 Laser Systems, compared to 22 in the prior year quarter
- Cash and cash equivalents as of March 29, 2025 were $7.2 million
President and CEO Patrick Mercer commented, “As announced last month, we are pre-announcing our first quarter results in order to highlight (i) the stabilization of our business and (ii) the Company’s improved financial condition following the strategic investment by Novel Inspiration International Co., Ltd. (“Novel”). We have delivered top line revenue increases versus the prior year in each of the last two quarters, even while significantly reducing operating expenses. We are exposed to external factors like changes in tariff policies, but we remain capable of achieving breakeven or better performance at historical revenue levels. On April 16, 2025, we will hold an investor call to introduce Iridex and Novel’s strategic vision for the Company.”
These preliminary results are based on management’s initial analysis of operations for the quarter ended March 29, 2025, and are subject to further internal review, potential adjustments and review by the Company’s external auditors.
