“2024 was a year of execution for STRATA. Our fourth quarter results highlight the success we are having in implementing our strategy to shift our existing installed base from underperforming centers to more productive ones while utilizing our DTC and service model to help our customers succeed,” commented STRATA’s President and CEO Dr. Dolev Rafaeli. “We have reduced XTRAC^® devices in our domestic installed base to 864, from 923 at the prior year end, resulting in average revenue per device increasing to $5,906 in the fourth quarter of 2024, up from $5,555 in the prior-year period, representing an increase of 6%. At the same time, our operating margins, adjusted for non-cash impairment charges in both periods, improved by 950 bps compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. On a full-year basis, our non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, including the adjustment for the $1.8 million accrual we discussed last quarter, improved to $2.2 million versus $1.0 million in the prior year.

“With regard to our international markets, we have seen significant traction, with particular strength in the Equipment segment. During the fourth quarter, international sales increased to $4.1 million, which represents a sequential increase of 27% over the prior quarter and 41% over the prior year period, with the international portion of the Equipment segment up 45% over the fourth quarter of 2023,” concluded Dr, Rafaeli.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

STRATA has determined to supplement its consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), presented elsewhere within this report, with certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, which excludes the non-cash expense of amortization of acquired intangible assets classified as cost of revenues, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization.”

These non-GAAP disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for Gross Profit or Net Earnings (Loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. STRATA considers these non-GAAP measures in addition to its results prepared under current accounting standards, but they are not a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance readers’ overall understanding of STRATA’s current financial performance and to provide further information for comparative purposes. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to Gross Profit or Net Earnings (Loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Specifically, STRATA believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains, and losses that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results and business outlook. In addition, STRATA believes non-GAAP measures enhance the comparability of results against prior periods.

Reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release is as follows:

XTRAC Gross Domestic Recurring Billings

XTRAC gross domestic recurring billings represent the amount invoiced to partner clinics when treatment codes are sold to the physician. It does not include normal GAAP adjustments, which are deferred revenue from prior quarters recorded as revenue in the current quarter, the deferral of revenue from the current quarter recorded as revenue in future quarters, adjustments for co-pay and other discounts. This excludes international recurring revenues.

The following is a reconciliation of non-GAAP XTRAC gross domestic billings to domestic recorded revenue for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 and 2023 (in thousands), respectively:
