CEO Review
Dear Shareholders,
The first quarter of 2026 was soft in terms of revenue development, with Group revenue decreasing by 0.6 million to EUR 3.4 million. The decline was primarily driven by timing effects in both Segments.
In the Devices segment, revenue declined year-on-year, primarily due to timing effects and uncertainty related to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) proposal to remove the diabetic eye exam from the HEDIS Star Rating measures and move to an outcome-based measure for diabetic eye exam screening adherence. This uncertainty which Optomed first learned about in January, related to screening reimbursement frameworks and payer practices, led some of our largest customers to postpone capital equipment purchases. During the quarter, Optomed actively engaged in dialogue together with industry stakeholders and relevant authorities. As a result, CMS maintained the diabetic eye exam's position among the HEDIS Star Rating measures, with confirmation received in early April. While this uncertainty impacted demand timing in Q1, we expect improved visibility following this decision.
Despite this, Optomed USA continued to grow during the quarter, driven by Aurora AEYE. This supports our view that underlying demand, particularly for AI-enabled screening solutions, remains intact. Outside the US, revenue declined both in Rest of the World and in OEM deliveries. We view this primarily as short-term fluctuation following a particularly strong fourth quarter, rather than a structural change in demand. At the same time, gross margins in the Devices segment improved from 58.8% of the comparison period to 62.7 % supported by high margin AI revenue, demonstrating resilience despite volume volatility.
The Software segment declined modestly during the quarter. This was primarily due timing effects of various software deliveries. The EBITDA margin stabilized to 20.9% following Q4-2025 which was affected by one-off costs.
In Aurora AEYE, progress during the quarter was related to both structural readiness and volume development. Following the completion of ISO 27001 certification and key EHR integrations, key barriers to broader US deployment have been addressed. Sales cycles remain long, particularly in the US primary care market, but the removal of these prerequisites is expected to support improved conversion dynamics over time. This was our strongest quarter ever for Aurora AEYE new subscription sales.
From a profitability perspective, EBITDA improved slightly year-on-year despite lower revenue, supported by improved margins driven by AI revenue and on the other hand, reflecting continued cost discipline. At the same time, operating profit remained negative and broadly stable, indicating that further improvement in profitability is dependent on revenue growth.
From a cost perspective, we continued to focus on operational discipline. Operating expenses decreased year-on-year, reflecting efficiency measures implemented during 2025, while we continue to prioritize investments in devices and AI-enabled screening.
The Group's financial position remains solid. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 7.8 million at the end of the period, providing sufficient flexibility to execute the current strategy without near-term financing needs.
The China joint venture continues to progress according to plan, although the opportunity remains binary and no substantial material revenue contribution is expected in the near term. In addition, discussions regarding potential collaboration with a global pharmaceutical partner are ongoing, and Optomed is building the ESG reporting capabilities required by the partner.
Visibility remains limited in the near term. Uncertainty related to currency movements, tariffs, political turbulence, and customer decision timelines particularly in the US primary care market continues to impact demand timing. Against this backdrop, the Company maintains a prudent approach to its full-year guidance and continues to expect revenue to grow in 2026 compared to 2025.
While short-term development remains uneven, we believe Optomed's positioning in handheld devices and AI-enabled screening is fundamentally unchanged. Our focus remains on disciplined execution, transparency, and building a more predictable growth trajectory over time.
Sincerely,
Juho Himberg
CEO
Outlook 2026
Optomed expects its full year 2026 revenue to grow compared to 2025.
