First Quarter Financial Highlights
•Net sales were $64.9 million for the first quarter of 2026, a decrease of (6.7)%, compared to the prior year period ("Q1 2025"), due to lower delivery systems and consumables net sales. The Company placed 746 delivery systems during Q1 2026, compared to 862 during Q1 2025.
•Gross margin was 68.5% in Q1 2026, compared to 69.8% in Q1 2025. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to higher amortization expense. Adjusted gross margin was relatively flat at 72.2% in Q1 2026 compared to 71.9% in Q1 2025.
•Operating expenses were $46.2 million in Q1 2026, compared to $60.6 million in Q1 2025. Adjusted operating expenses were $38.4 million in Q1 2026, compared to $42.8 million in Q1 2025. The improvement in operating expenses and adjusted operating expenses was primarily due to lower personnel-related expenses and lower marketing-related spend.
•Net loss was $(6.6) million in Q1 2026, compared to $(10.1) million in Q1 2025. The change compared to the prior year was primarily due to lower operational spend, partially offset by lower net sales.
•Adjusted EBITDA was $8.5 million in Q1 2026, compared to $7.3 million in Q1 2025. The improvement in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower operational spend, partially offset by lower net sales.

Conference Call
SkinHealth Systems will host a conference call on Thursday, May 7, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. ET to review its first quarter 2026 financial results. The call may be accessed via live webcast through the Events & Presentations page on our Investor Relations website at www.skinhealthsystems.com. A recording of the call will become available on the site approximately three hours after its conclusion.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), management utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin for purposes of evaluating ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.
Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed collectively with the Company’s GAAP financial information, provide useful supplemental information to investors in assessing the Company's operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP financial information or as an indication of operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP, and may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in its industry, as these other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, particularly related to unusual items.
Adjusted gross profit is gross profit excluding the effects of depreciation expense, amortization expense, and share-based compensation expense and other long-term incentive compensation. Adjusted gross margin represents adjusted gross profit as a percentage of net sales.
Adjusted operating expenses is calculated as total operating expenses excluding the effects of depreciation expense; amortization expense; share-based compensation expense and other long-term incentive compensation; litigation related costs; Go-to-Market restructuring; and severance, restructuring, and other.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net loss excluding the effects of (benefit) expense for income taxes; depreciation expense; amortization expense; share-based compensation expense and other long-term incentive compensation; interest expense; interest income; other income, net; change in fair value of warrant liabilities; foreign currency loss (gain), net; litigation related costs; Go-to-Market restructuring; and severance, restructuring and other. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation of its fiscal 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance to net loss, the most directly comparable forward looking GAAP financial measures, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, which cannot be done without unreasonable efforts, including adjustments that could be made for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities, integration and acquisition-related expenses, amortization expenses, non-cash share-based compensation, gains/losses on foreign currency, and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company's fiscal 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance is merely an outlook and is not a guarantee of future performance. Stockholders should not rely or place an undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information.
