SAN JOSE, Calif., May 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Outset Medical, Inc. (Nasdaq: OM), a medical technology company pioneering a first-of-its-kind technology to reduce the cost and complexity of dialysis, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
First Quarter and Recent Highlights
Net revenue of $29.8 million grew 6% from the prior-year period.
Tablo console revenue grew 23% from the fourth quarter.
Recurring revenue consisting of Tablo consumables and services grew 20% over the prior-year period to $22.7 million. Outset shipped its 3 millionth Tablo treatment during the quarter, adding 1 million treatments over a period of approximately 12 months.
Gross margin was 37.2%. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin reached 37.6%, an increase of more than 6 percentage points over the prior-year period. Stranded manufacturing overhead costs were approximately a 230-basis point headwind to non-GAAP gross margin in the quarter. Excluding these costs, non-GAAP gross margin would have been approximately 40%.
Demonstrated continued progress toward profitability with net cash used in operating activities declining 44% from the first quarter of 2024.
Reiterated that proposed and recently enacted tariffs are expected to have no impact on the company due to a special exemption Outset received in January for products that serve the chronically disabled in addition to its exemption under the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
“Outset’s results in the first quarter reflect the strong progress we have made with our commercial transformation, the durable competitive differentiation of Tablo for acute and home hemodialysis, and the meaningful impact our operational execution is having on our path to profitability,” said Leslie Trigg, Chair and Chief Executive Officer. “Console placements grew, utilization-driven recurring revenue remained strong, and we demonstrated ongoing operating leverage during the quarter. Importantly, we continued to grow our installed base with providers and patients in the acute and home settings who are seeing firsthand the significant benefits Tablo can deliver.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company may report non-GAAP results for gross profit/loss, gross margin, operating expenses, operating margins, net income/loss, basic and diluted net income/loss per share, other income/loss, and cash flows. These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. As listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release, the Company’s GAAP financial measures include stock-based compensation expense, as well as severance and related charges net of the reversal of compensation accruals for impacted employees. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense, and severance and related charges arise outside the ordinary course of continuing operations and are not reflective of the Company's current operating performance. As such, management has excluded the effects of these items in non-GAAP measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance and period-to-period comparisons. There are limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may exclude significant expenses required by GAAP to be recognized in the Company’s financial statements, and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are presented in the Appendix A of this press release.
