Q&A highlights

How much of the second half revenue ramp is expected from repeat orders at existing IDNs versus first placements at new IDNs, given the budgetary cycles?

Management stated that the second half ramp is driven by several factors, including subsequent placements in existing IDNs due to new budgetary cycles, continued rollout of the office business, new software releases, and pilots in neurosurgery and mobile applications. It's a combination of these layers, not solely dependent on hospital or IDN business.

“So I would say there are all of those layers that just keep adding to what we have built in the first half. The first half was a significant step up, but we're expecting more of that in the second half.”

Detailed narrative

Model 2 System Traction and Diversified Commercial Profile

Hyperfine's next-generation Model 2 SWOOP system, launched mid-last year, has demonstrated significant traction across multiple verticals. The company reported its second-highest quarterly revenue ever at $3.9 million, driven by 12 system sales in Q2, a 50% year-over-year increase. This success is attributed to improved image quality, expanding clinical utility, and a broader commercial strategy targeting hospitals, neurology offices, and international markets, supported by accumulating real-world evidence.

Hospital Market Expansion and IDN Engagement

The hospital market remains Hyperfine's largest vertical, with the SWOOP system moving beyond niche critical care to broader utility in emergency departments and hospital-based clinics. Recent data presented at SAEM 2026 showed portable MRI reduced median order-to-scan start time in the ED from 7.76 hours to 1.28 hours.

The company is making progress with large health systems, securing initial placements within national IDNs and expanding beyond first sites, with a pipeline increasingly supported by clinical and economic validation.

Neurology Office Opportunity and Future Catalysts

Neurology offices are developing into a distinct growth vertical, bringing imaging closer to patients. Hyperfine has placed the SWOOP system in over a dozen offices, noting high utilization and ease of use without an MR technologist. Neuro-PMR data shows 92% blinded concordance with conventional MRI (98% with clinical history), and patients are four times more likely to choose portable MRI.

Planned expansion to include contrast labeling, with an FDA submission targeted by year-end 2026, is expected to broaden clinical utility and support established CPT codes.

International Market Foundation and Regulatory Milestones

Hyperfine is building a stronger international presence, with Model 2 now commercially available in Europe and the UK following CE and UKCA mark approvals. The first two Model 2 systems were sold internationally in Q2. Inclusion in France's Uni-Acha procurement listing creates an efficient purchasing pathway, and the first India deployment at AIM-CU Delhi serves as a high-profile clinical reference site, laying a foundation for broader global execution.

Product and Software Innovation Pipeline

The company continues to invest in product and software capabilities to expand the SWOOP system's clinical utility. A new software release is expected later this year, enhancing image quality, clinical utility, and workflow. Enrollment for contrast PMR is approximately 75% complete, targeting an FDA submission by year-end 2026.

Early interest in neurosurgical workflows and mobile deployment models further reinforces the platform's potential beyond traditional fixed-site imaging.

Strengthened Financial Position and Operating Discipline

Hyperfine's financial position has improved significantly, marked by sustained gross margins above 50% (50.7% in Q2) and reduced net cash burn. Cash and cash equivalents stood at $43.5 million as of June 30, 2026, bolstered by $10.6 million in net proceeds from an ATM program.

The company remains focused on disciplined spending and improved operating leverage to convert commercial progress into sustained financial performance, with a cash runway extending into 2028.
