Executive summary

Stereotaxis Q2 FY26 — Commercial Inflection Point with New Product Ecosystem

Stereotaxis reached a commercial inflection point in Q2 FY26, driven by accelerating adoption of its expanded product offering, including the new MAGIC catheter and Synchrony digital surgery system. While supply constraints and the need to prove Genesis X compatibility with various X-rays remain challenges, the company is seeing strong early feedback and is focused on ramping manufacturing and aggressive commercialization. Management anticipates continued revenue momentum and aims for cash flow profitability by H1 2027.

Highlights

5
  • Recurring revenue reached a multi-year high of $6.2 million in Q2 FY26, up 450% year-over-year.

  • Robotic catheter revenue surpassed $1 million in Q2 FY26, with nearly 300% sequential growth.

  • FDA clearance for Synchrony system received in Q2 FY26, with initial orders and shipments contributing to system revenue.

  • First Genesis X purchase in the U.S. from an academic medical center announced, expected to be installed this fall.

  • Company is internally modeling to reach cash flow profitability in H1 2027.

Concerns

5
  • Revenue declined year-over-year due to lack of robotic system delivery in Q2 FY26.

  • Sales remain supply constrained for robotic catheters, with a backlog of orders.

  • Gross margins for both recurring revenue (66%) and systems (29%) are impacted by low manufacturing volumes.

  • Operating loss increased to $4.6 million in Q2 FY26 from $4.0 million in the prior year.

  • Negative free cash flow of $3.7 million in Q2 FY26, consistent with the previous year.

Deals & partnerships

RoboCath Acquisition of a fully complementary and separate robotic system for endovascular device navigation.

Acquisition closed in July. Energetically advancing their system with a vision of offering a full ecosystem for remote, automated, and fully robotic treatment of stroke and cardiovascular disease.

Risks & headwinds

Robotic catheter supply constraints Next few quarters

Backlog of catheter orders from customers

Mitigation:Ramping manufacturing, establishing supply redundancy, methodical progress in increasing supply.

Transition away from Johnson & Johnson catheters Ongoing, next year

General pressure on procedures

Mitigation:Methodically working through hospital approvals and initial launches of proprietary robotic catheters; expect vast majority to shift within the next year.

Low manufacturing volumes impacting gross margins Next few quarters

Recurring revenue gross margin 66%, System gross margin 29%

Mitigation:Expect margins to remain at approximate levels, with significant opportunity for expansion in 2027 and 2028 as manufacturing volumes increase.

Proving Genesis X real-world reliability and X-ray compatibility Next few months

Customers' minds have 'more of a question mark' until proven

Mitigation:Initial U.S. and European installations with non-modified X-rays to demonstrate compatibility and reliability; formal compatibility statements with main X-ray manufacturers.

Overall market share in electrophysiology and other fields Long-term

Just a fraction of a percent market share in EP, no presence yet in interventional cardiology and neurointerventional fields

Mitigation:Scaling robotic adoption with Genesis X, expanding product ecosystem, robust innovation pipeline for multi-specialty applications.

What to watch in Q3 FY26

Robotic Catheter Revenue Growth

Q3 FY26
Current over $1 million in Q2 FY26, nearly 300% sequential growth
Target approximate $1 million incremental step up

Why it matters

This metric is a key driver of recurring revenue growth and reflects the success of the new MAGIC catheter launch and manufacturing ramp-up.

We're guiding for an approximate $1 million incremental step up in catheter revenue in each of the next couple quarters, with significantly more opportunities beyond that in 2027.

Q&A highlights

The analyst noted the full-year revenue guidance implies about $35 million and asked about visibility, confidence, and assumptions regarding catheter manufacturing improvements and capital adoption/installation timing.

David Fischel confirmed the guidance was a helpful way to share expectations. He stated that recurring revenue growth is primarily driven by MAGIC catheter adoption and is currently supply-constrained. System revenue guidance is a mix of Synchrony ($1M+ per quarter) and robotic systems, with one GenesisX revenue recognition expected in Q3 and Q4 each, plus additional Genesis orders.

“We thought that would be kind of a helpful way to share our expectations. The growth in recurring revenue is essentially all driven by adoption of our proprietary catheters, of kind of our robotically steered catheters.”

Detailed narrative

Commercial Inflection and Product Adoption

Stereotaxis has reached a commercial inflection point in Q2 FY26, driven by accelerating adoption of its expanded product offering. The launch of MAGIC in the U.S. following FDA approval has led to a multi-year high in recurring revenue and significant growth in robotic catheter revenue.

Early feedback from physicians on MAGIC is highly encouraging, noting improved targeting, ablation effectiveness, and efficiency. The company is methodically working through hospital approvals and initial launches of robotic catheters across its U.S. and European installed base.

Supply Chain and Manufacturing Ramp-up

Robotic catheter sales remain supply constrained, with a backlog of orders exceeding current supply from contract manufacturer Asipka. The company is putting significant effort into ramping manufacturing and establishing supply redundancy. This progress supports expectations of sustained growth in catheter revenue, with an anticipated $1 million incremental step up in catheter revenue in each of the next two quarters, and further opportunities in 2027.

Synchrony System Launch and Market Opportunity

The Synchrony system received FDA clearance in Q2 FY26, with initial orders and shipments contributing to system revenue. Synchrony modernizes the interventional surgical suite with enhanced workflow, remote connectivity, and AI capabilities. While current contribution is modest, the market opportunity is large, extending to non-robotic operating rooms.

The company expects over $1 million in Synchrony system revenue each quarter for the next few quarters and plans to increase sales efforts as the pipeline builds and manufacturing matures.

Genesis X Commercialization and X-ray Compatibility

Genesis X is critical for scaling robotic adoption by removing the historical requirement for specific modified X-rays. The company announced its first U.S. Genesis X purchase from an academic medical center, expected to be installed this fall with a non-modified X-ray.

This installation will enable formal compatibility declaration with a major X-ray manufacturer. The European Genesis X installation is also back on track for year-end. Proving Genesis X's reliability and compatibility with various X-rays is key to a more aggressive commercial launch.

Robust Innovation Pipeline

Stereotaxis continues to advance a robust innovation pipeline across several categories. This includes a future generation of fully wireless, battery-operated, and mobile Genesis X robots, and an expanded portfolio of EP catheter innovations, with first human procedures for MAGIC and pulse field ablation expected by year-end.

The company is also developing robotic systems and interventional devices for broader cardiology and neurointerventional fields, including the Imagine family of magnetic guide catheters and guide wires, and the recently acquired RoboCath system for endovascular device navigation.

Financial Outlook and Profitability Path

The company maintains a lean operating budget while managing multiple product launches and R&D efforts. Management is confident in advancing its strategy without significant investor dilution. They are internally modeling to reach cash flow profitability in the first half of 2027, driven by the ramp-up in recurring revenue, where the majority of incremental revenue flows to operating profit.

Profits will be reinvested into the commercial organization to support accelerated growth.
