ST. LOUIS, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stereotaxis (NYSE: STXS), a pioneer and global leader in surgical robotics for minimally invasive endovascular intervention, today reported business updates and financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
“Stereotaxis is in one of the most exciting periods of its history. We are achieving significant regulatory approvals, executing strategic acquisitions, and witnessing the initial green shoots of commercial success with our new product ecosystem,” said David Fischel, Stereotaxis Chairman and CEO. “The operational and commercial friction to ramp up manufacturing and implement new products makes progress gradual, but we are efficiently driving broad-based progress on many fronts in parallel towards an attractive business built on solid foundations.”
“The streak of regulatory success that began last year continued in the first part of this year with two essential FDA approvals for the MAGiC cardiac ablation catheter and Synchrony digital surgery system. These regulatory approvals brought to market an entirely new foundational product ecosystem that structurally changes our commercial opportunity. We essentially developed a fresh start-up company on the shoulders of our legacy technology and funded by our legacy business.”
“The transformational agreement to acquire Robocath gives Stereotaxis a fully complementary and separate robotic mechanism of action for endovascular device navigation. The combination of our technologies offers a clear vision for how our robotic solution, including the full ecosystem of digital innovations, will enable remote, automated and fully robotic treatment for electrophysiology, interventional cardiology and neurointerventions.”
“The still minor revenue contribution from our new catheters is being countered by the headwind of winding down our relationship with Johnson & Johnson. Demand for MAGiC far exceeds supply, and we are rolling out the catheter in both Europe and the US in line with the manufacturing ramp, which continues to progress towards an expected 500 catheters a month by year end. Initial green shoots of adoption demonstrate the strength of our strategy to build a synergistic portfolio of catheters, with disposable revenue per procedure several fold higher than previously. This structural transformation to our disposable business model is taking place as we simultaneously structurally transform our capital business and prepare for multiple GenesisX placements.”
