Gross profit in the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $7.5 million, or 86% gross margin, as compared to $5.5 million, or 84% gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Research and development expense in the third quarter of 2025 was $0.7 million, as compared to $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily due to increased development costs associated with our next generation mobile application.
Selling, general and administrative expense was $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $2.1 million as compared to $7.6 million for the previous year period. This increase was primarily due to greater investment in selling and marketing costs, consistent with the Company's increase in sales. For the remainder of 2025, the Company plans on continuing to make targeted investments in sales and marketing to support its commercial efforts.
Total operating expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2025, were approximately $10.4 million as compared to $8.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Total other expense was $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, which consisted primarily of $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs in connection with a change in estimated liability (the“CVR Liability”) payable to pre-closing shareholders of NeuroMetrix, Inc. (“NURO”), pursuant to a contingent value rights agreement, and interest expense on the convertible debt financing with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P. (“Avenue”), as compared to total other income of $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, which consisted mainly of interest income.
Net loss in the third quarter of 2025 was $3.4 million, or a loss of $0.40 per share, as compared to $2.5 million net loss, or a loss of $0.31 per share, in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in net loss is primarily attributable to an increase in other expense (income) related to the CVR Liability, and interest expense on the convertible debt financing with Avenue. Net loss per share includes a loss of $0.05 per share and $0.02 per share attributed to the CVR Liability and interest expense, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA net loss in the third quarter of 2025 was $2.0 million as compared to adjusted EBITDA net loss of $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2024.
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA net loss as GAAP net loss, adjusting to exclude non-operating gains/losses, depreciation and amortization, stock-compensation expense, inventory reserve charges, accounts receivable reserve charges, non-recurring recruiting fees, severance and other related charges, legal fees associated with stockholders' litigation and the intellectual property litigation, benefit from income taxes, and non-recurring transaction charges associated with the acquisition of NURO and other business development activities, or other one-time charges. A reconciliation of GAAP net loss to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA net loss is provided in the financial statement table below.
Total Cash at September 30, 2025, totaled approximately $13.2 million, as compared to approximately $12.2 million as of December 31, 2024.
Full Year 2025 and Select 2026 Outlook
For the full year of 2025, the Company is increasing its revenue guidance to $31.5 - $32.5 million and adjusting its net cash usage estimate for the fourth quarter of 2025 to be between approximately $2.0 and $2.5 million. The Company expects to reach $12.0 million in quarterly revenue and achieve its first quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA in the second half of 2026.

(Unaudited) Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure
The Company is presenting adjusted EBITDA net loss because it believes this measure is a useful indicator of its operating performance. Management uses this non-GAAP measure principally as a measure of the Company's core operating performance and believes that this measure is useful to investors because it is frequently used by the financial community, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the Company's industry. The Company also believes that this measure is useful to its management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period. Additionally, the Company believes its use of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA net loss from operations facilitates management's internal comparisons to historical operating results by factoring out potential differences caused by gains and charges not related to its regular, ongoing business, including, without limitation, non-cash charges and certain large and unpredictable charges such as restructuring expenses.
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA net loss as GAAP net loss, adjusting to exclude non-operating gains/losses, depreciation and amortization, stock-compensation expense, inventory reserve charges, accounts receivable reserve charges, non-recurring recruiting fees, severance and other related charges, legal fees associated with stockholders' litigation and the intellectual litigation, benefit from income taxes, and non-recurring transaction charges associated with the acquisition of NURO and other business development activities, or other one-time charges. A reconciliation of GAAP net loss to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA net loss is provided in the financial statement table below.

The Company's use of a non-GAAP measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of its results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: (i) the non-GAAP measure does not reflect interest or tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available; (ii) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and the non-GAAP measure does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; (iii) the non-GAAP measure does not reflect the potentially dilutive impact of equity-based compensation; and (iv) the non-GAAP measure does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for working capital needs; other companies, including companies in electroCore's industry, may calculate adjusted EBITDA net loss differently, effectively reducing its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these and other limitations, you should consider the non-GAAP measure together with other GAAP-based financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net loss, and other GAAP results. A reconciliation of GAAP net loss to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA net loss has been provided in the preceding financial statements table of this press release.
