consistent, repeatable execution across all channels, driven by
great products and a dedicated team. We’ve caught our stride and
continue to gain momentum; with this, we are pleased to be giving

DeVivo continued, "What’s more, while delivering strong results

sharing details of our operational and strategic highlights during
today’s conference call, including announcing new developments in
our Butterfly HomeCare services business, and an exciting
opportunity to fully capitalize on our Powered by Butterfly™ chip
licensing program.”
Recent Operational and Strategic Highlights:
- Butterfly’s Return-on-Investment Validation: Published a
case study demonstrating that University of Rochester Medical
Center’s system-wide deployment of Butterfly is enhancing patient
care and financial performance. Additional research by Dr. Stephen
Erickson at Jefferson Healthcare shows Butterfly devices pay for
themselves quickly for individual practitioners, as well.
- Medical Education Progress: Announced Kansas City
University as the first U.S. medical school to leverage Butterfly
ScanLab™ as the foundation of its POCUS curriculum.
- International Market Expansion: Launched Butterfly iQ3
in Europe, and opened new markets in Indonesia, the Netherlands,
and Belgium.
- Butterfly Veterinary Advancements: Announced data from
Kansas State University with Beef Cattle Institute on chute-side
management of bovine respiratory disease, confirming the value of
Butterfly in creating a new decision-making process for cattle
operations globally.
- Butterfly Garden Growth: Signed two new Butterfly Garden
partners, bringing the portfolio to 17 companies. On October 28,
2024, HeartFocus by Deski announced the commercial launch of its
AI-powered cardiac training app.
- Butterfly HomeCare Pilot Announcement: In the fourth
quarter 2024, Butterfly HomeCare is set to begin a pilot for
virtual chronic care management with a leading Medicare Advantage
provider to improve heart failure outcomes through AI-powered
imaging.
- Octiv™ Subsidiary Formation Announcement: as a next step
to monetize the full value of Powered by Butterfly™, the Company
plans to form Octiv – a wholly-owned subsidiary dedicated to
bringing Butterfly’s proprietary chip to new sectors. With the
creation of Octiv, the Company’s goal is to increase access to
capital from new investors, while unlocking value for current
Butterfly shareholders.
- European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
Update: Butterfly leadership met with the officials responsible
for the RoHS exemptions revision on September 11, 2024 in Brussels.
During the discussion, Butterfly’s revocation was welcomed with
significant support from the European Commission representatives.
Subsequently, on October 23, 2024, Butterfly re-submitted its
revocation request, providing additional information and details
suggested by the European Commission.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 Financial
Results
Revenue: Total revenue was $20.6 million, up 33% from
$15.4 million in the third quarter of 2023. U.S. revenue was $13.1
million, up 27% from prior year, driven by the recently launched
next-generation iQ3 probe’s higher selling price and increased
enterprise software revenue. International revenue increased 36%
year-over-year to $5.2 million, with new geographies contributing
revenue. Other revenue contributed $2.3 million.
- Product revenue was $13.5 million, an increase of 55% versus
the prior year period, driven by the 37% increase in units
fulfilled year-over-year and the iQ3’s higher selling price.
- Software and other services revenue was up 5% year-over-year at
$7.0 million. Software and other services mix was 34% of revenue
and decreased by 9 percentage points versus the prior year due to
the higher product revenue achieved this quarter. Enterprise as a
percentage of software revenue increased 5 percentage points
year-over-year.
Gross profit: Gross profit was $12.2 million versus $9.4
million in the prior year period, and adjusted gross profit was
$12.3 million versus $9.4 million in the prior period. Gross margin
decreased to 59.5% from 60.8% in the prior year period, and
adjusted gross margin decreased to 60.0% from 60.8% in the prior
year period. These decreases are primarily due to the higher cost
to manufacture iQ3 including efficiencies in starting a new line
and warranty expense; product mix, reflecting a higher proportion
of product revenues; and higher amortization which reduced margin
by approximately 90 basis points, largely offset by higher average
selling prices.
Operating expenses: Operating expenses were $29.5
million, down 30% from $41.9 million in the prior year period, due
to previously announced reductions in force, as well as non-payroll
spending rationalization across all areas.
Total operating expenses excluding stock-based compensation and
Other expense were $23.4 million, compared to $25.9 million in the
third quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 10%.
Net loss: Net loss was $16.9 million, compared to $27.4
million in the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA loss was $8.4 million,
compared to $12.5 million in the prior year period.
Adjusted EPS: Adjusted EPS was ($0.05), compared to
($0.07) in the prior year period.
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash: Cash, cash
equivalents, and restricted cash were $97.8 million as of September
30, 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measures based on generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
(“GAAP”), we provide additional financial measures that are not
prepared in accordance with GAAP (“non-GAAP”). The non-GAAP
financial measures included in this press release are adjusted
gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted
EPS. We present non-GAAP financial measures in order to assist
readers of our financial statements in understanding the core
operating results that our management uses to evaluate the business
and for financial planning purposes. Our non-GAAP financial
measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in
comparing our financial performance over multiple periods.
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release
are key performance measures that our management uses to assess our
operating performance. These non-GAAP measures facilitate internal
comparisons of our operating performance on a more consistent
basis. We use these performance measures for business planning
purposes and forecasting. We believe that these non-GAAP measures
enhance an investor’s understanding of our financial performance as
they are useful in assessing our operating performance from
period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not
representative of our core business.
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release
may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies because they may not calculate these measures in the same
manner. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in
accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of,
or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
When evaluating the Company’s performance, you should consider
adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and
adjusted EPS alongside other financial performance measures
prepared in accordance with GAAP, including gross profit, gross
margin, net loss, and EPS.
The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation
of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a
supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results
presented in accordance with GAAP. In this press release, we have
provided reconciliations of adjusted gross profit to gross profit,
adjusted gross margin to gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA and
adjusted EPS to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial
measures to corresponding GAAP measures are not available on a
forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict with
reasonable certainty the non-cash component of employee
compensation expense, changes in our working capital needs,
variances in our supply chain, the impact of earnings or charges
resulting from matters we consider not to be reflective, on a
recurring basis, of our ongoing operations, and other such items
without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on
various factors, and could be material to our results computed in
accordance with GAAP. Management strongly encourages investors to
review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their
entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
Forward Looking Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our actual
results may differ from our expectations, estimates, and
projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these
forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words
such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,”
“anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,”

forward-looking statements include, without limitation, our
expectations with respect to financial results, future performance,
commercialization and plans to deploy our products and services,

growth of current or future markets for our products and services.
Forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs and
assumptions and on information currently available to us. These
forward-looking statements involve significant known and unknown
risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause the
actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the
forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside our
control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such
differences include, but are not limited to: our ability to grow
and manage growth effectively; the success, cost, and timing of our
product and service development activities; the potential
attributes and benefits of our products and services; the degree to
which our products and services are accepted by healthcare
practitioners and patients for their approved uses; our ability to

with others; the pricing of our products and services, and
reimbursement for medical procedures conducted using our products
and services; our estimates regarding expenses, revenue, capital
requirements, and needs for additional financing; our financial
performance; our ability to raise financing in the future; and
other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in our
most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or in subsequent filings
that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We
caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. We
caution you not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release.
We do not undertake or accept any obligation or undertake to
release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking
statements to reflect any change in our expectations or any change
in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement
is based.
