Accuray Reports Fiscal 2026 Second Quarter Financial Results | ARAY Stock News

, /PRNewswire/ -- Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ: ARAY) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended December 31, 2025.Key Highlights On December 15, 2025 the Company announced the first phase of comprehensive, strategic, operational, and organizational transformational plan, which is expected to improve annualized operating profitability by approximately $25 million and set the stage for revenue growth:Plan includes organizational realignment, rightsizing of cost structure, outsourcing, and sales enablement in order to enhance competitiveness and support long-term strategy.Workforce optimization actions will affect approximately 15% of the company's employees globally.Of the expected $25 million in annualized operating profit improvement, approximately $12 million is expected to be realized in fiscal year 2026.During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, in connection with the transformational plan, the Company initiated a restructuring plan aimed at reducing costs, aligning resources with strategic priorities, and streamlining operations. The Company recorded $6.1 million in restructuring charges, which included $4.1 million in severance related costs, $0.7 million in implementation and other costs, and $1.2 million in impairments that were directly related to the restructuring plan. We expect total restructuring charges to be approximately $13 million for fiscal year 2026."Over the past 90 days, I've met extensively with Accuray teams and customers across all major regions. Their insights have directly informed the decisive actions we've already taken — from reorganizing our commercial structure to refining our near‑term product and service investment priorities. We moved quickly and with discipline across the four pillars we outlined publicly: commercial simplification, global functional alignment, elevation of service and product development, and cost‑structure and footprint optimization," said CEO Steve La Neve."While this transformation is in its early stages, the pace of execution, the alignment across the organization, and the level of accountability give me confidence that we are on the right trajectory. Our objectives remain clear: accelerate top‑line growth, enhance our competitive position, expand profitability, and deliver sustainable long‑term value for all of our stakeholders, building a stronger Accuray, and the momentum we are seeing reinforces the impact of the steps taken to date," added La Neve.Fiscal Second Quarter ResultsTotal net revenue was $102.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, or a decrease of 12 percent, as compared to $116.2 million in the prior fiscal year second quarter.

To supplement its financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Accuray uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA.Accuray has supplemented its GAAP net income (loss) with a non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and (gain) loss from change in fair value of warrant liability ("adjusted EBITDA"). The calculation of adjusted EBITDA also excludes certain non-recurring, irregular and one-time items. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding the performance of the company and facilitates a meaningful comparison of results for current periods with previous operating results. A reconciliation of GAAP net loss (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is provided in the schedules below.There are limitations in using these non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Investors and potential investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures only in conjunction with the company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.About AccurayAccuray Incorporated (Nasdaq: ARAY) is committed to expanding the powerful potential of radiation therapy to improve as many lives as possible.
