Oramed deal reshapes Lifeward (NASDAQ: LFWD) with new tech and funding
Lifeward Ltd. reported fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results while advancing a major strategic shift toward diversified biomedical innovation. Full-year 2025 revenue was $22.0 million, down from $25.7 million in 2024, but GAAP net loss narrowed to $19.9 million from $28.9 million as operating expenses fell 25%.
Fourth-quarter 2025 revenue was $5.1 million versus $7.5 million a year earlier, with lower AlterG and MyoCycle sales partly offset by stronger ReWalk exoskeleton revenue. Lifeward secured shareholder approval for a transformative Oramed transaction, under which Oramed may own up to 49.99% of Lifeward and provide up to $47 million in funding while contributing its POD™ oral protein delivery platform. The company also agreed to acquire a powered upper-body exoskeleton, targeting commercial launch in roughly 18–24 months. Cash and cash equivalents were $2.2 million as of December 31, 2025.
Positive
- Losses narrowed despite lower revenue: 2025 GAAP net loss improved to $19.9 million from $28.9 million, as total operating expenses fell 25% to $28.1 million and non-GAAP operating loss narrowed to $15.1 million from $16.6 million.
- Transformative Oramed transaction with funding: Lifeward received shareholder approval for a deal in which Oramed may own up to 49.99% of the company and provide up to $47 million, while contributing its POD™ oral protein delivery technology platform.
- Strategic product expansion: Lifeward agreed to acquire a powered upper-body exoskeleton with integrated AI, targeting commercial launch in approximately 18 to 24 months and expecting attractive gross margins and favorable unit economics over time.
Negative
- Revenue contraction in 2025: Full-year revenue declined to $22.0 million from $25.7 million (about 14% lower), with fourth-quarter revenue down to $5.1 million from $7.5 million, including a 43% drop in AlterG sales and services versus the prior-year quarter.
- Ongoing cash burn and low cash balance: Net cash used in operating activities was $16.8 million in 2025, and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents were $2.2 million as of December 31, 2025, leaving the company reliant on closing planned financing linked to the Oramed transaction.
Insights
Lifeward trades near-term revenue pressure for strategic diversification and funded growth.
Lifeward is in transition. 2025 revenue declined to $22.0M from $25.7M, with Q4 down about 33%, mainly from softer AlterG and MyoCycle sales. Yet GAAP operating expenses fell 25%, cutting GAAP net loss to $19.9M from $28.9M.
The approved Oramed deal is central. Oramed can own up to 49.99% of Lifeward and provide up to $47M plus its POD™ oral biologics platform, while funding associated clinical development. This adds a drug-delivery pipeline without overburdening Lifeward’s balance sheet.
Execution risk remains: year-end unrestricted cash was only $2.2M, and non-GAAP operating loss was $15.1M. Management plans to close a secured convertible note with Oramed and another investor after the transaction. Future filings around closing, integration of POD™ and progress on the powered upper-body exoskeleton over the next 18–24 months will clarify how quickly the strategy translates into sustainable cash flow.
