ALISO VIEJO, Calif., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NASDAQ: RXST) – RxSight, Inc., an ophthalmic medical device company dedicated to providing high-quality customized vision to patients following cataract surgery, today announced select preliminary financial results for the second quarter 2025 and revised full-year 2025 guidance. The Company will host a conference call on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Preliminary Second Quarter 2025 Results

  • Preliminary second quarter 2025 revenue is expected to be approximately $33.6 million, representing a decrease of 4% compared to the prior year period, and a decrease of 11% compared to the first quarter of 2025, driven by:
    • The sale of 27,380 Light Adjustable Lenses (LAL®/LAL+®), representing a 1% decrease in procedure volume compared to the first quarter of 2025 and a 13% increase in procedure volume compared to the second quarter of 2024; and
    • The sale of 40 Light Delivery Devices (LDD™s), representing a 45% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2025 and a 49% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2024.
    • As of June 30, 2025, the company’s installed base stood at 1,084 LDDs, which represents a 34% expansion compared to the installed base of 810 LDDs at the end of the second quarter of 2024.

“Guided by insights from our second quarter underperformance and building on our long-term vision, we are evolving our commercial approach to re-direct more of our focus toward supporting customer success within new and existing practices,” said Dr. Ron Kurtz, Chief Executive Officer and President of RxSight. “By deepening our engagement with our clinical partners, we believe we will be better positioned to ensure they can fully realize the benefits of adjustability and achieve the superior outcomes for their patients that ultimately drive further LAL adoption.”

Revised 2025 Guidance

The company decreased its 2025 full-year revenue, increased its gross margin percentage and reduced its operating expense guidance as follows:

  • Revenue in the range of $120.0 million to $130.0 million, revised downward from the previous guidance range of $160.0 million to $175.0 million, representing an implied decrease of 14% to 7% compared to 2024;
  • Gross margin in the range of 72% to 74%, an increase from the previous guidance range of 71% to 73%, and representing an implied increase of 130 basis points to 330 basis points compared to 2024;

  • Operating expenses include non-cash stock-based compensation expense in the range of $27.0 million to $30.0 million.

June 30, 2025 preliminary cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are $227.5 million, a decrease of approximately $1.8 million as compared to $229.3 million as of March 31, 2025.
