MADISON, Wis., May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ: ARAY) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended March 31, 2026.
Key Highlights
"During the quarter, we made meaningful progress executing against the transformation plan we launched in December," said Steve LaNeve, President and Chief Executive Officer of Accuray. "We are already seeing tangible benefits from these initiatives, including approximately $10 million in realized margin improvements through the fiscal third quarter, positioning us ahead of our original expectations. We have also strengthened our leadership team with experienced talent in key strategic areas and continue to enhance our technology platform through highly strategic partnerships focused on advancing real-time adaptation to patient and tumor motion during treatment, a core differentiator of Accuray's technology. Taken together, we believe these actions will improve execution, strengthen profitability, and create meaningful long-term value for our shareholders."
Mr. LaNeve continued, "Overall, we are encouraged by the progress we are making and remain confident in our strategy and our ability to execute on the areas within our control. However, the current geopolitical environment has created significant unpredictability around the timing of installations in several key Middle Eastern markets. Given these uncertainties, we believe it is prudent to withdraw financial guidance at this time, specifically as it relates to total net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, and revisit our outlook when we report fiscal fourth quarter results."
Fiscal Third Quarter Results
Total net revenue was $104.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, or a decrease of 7 percent, as compared to $113.2 million in the prior fiscal year third quarter. Product revenue was $49.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, or a decrease of 13 percent, as compared to $57.3 million in the prior fiscal year third quarter. Service revenue was $55.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, or a decrease of 1 percent, as compared to $55.9 million in the prior fiscal year third quarter.
Total gross profit was $25.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, or 24.1 percent of total net revenue, as compared to a total gross profit of $31.6 million, or 27.9 percent of total net revenue, in the prior fiscal year third quarter. The decrease in gross margin rate was primarily due to higher net parts consumption of $3.2 million, as well as higher than average logistics and duties costs.
Operating expenses were $34.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, or an increase of 12 percent, as compared to $30.6 million in the prior fiscal year third quarter. Operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 include $6.5 million in restructuring charges. Excluding restructuring charges, operating expenses would have decreased by $2.8 million, or 9 percent, as compared to the prior fiscal year third quarter. Additionally, the prior year third quarter benefited from a $3.2 million reversal of accrued compensation from the first half of fiscal year 2025. Adjusting for these two discrete items, third quarter 2026 operating expenses decreased $6.0 million, or 18%, versus prior year.
Net loss was $11.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, or a diluted net loss of $0.09 per share, as compared to a net loss of $1.3 million, or a diluted net loss of $0.01 per share, in the prior fiscal year third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $3.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to an adjusted EBITDA of $6.0 million in the prior fiscal year third quarter.
Gross product orders were $48.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to $71.2 million in the prior fiscal year third quarter. The book to bill ratio was 1.0 in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to 1.2 the prior fiscal year third quarter. Order backlog as of March 31, 2026 was $356.2 million, which is approximately 21% percent lower than at the end of the prior fiscal year third quarter.
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of quarter end amounted to $44.4 million compared to $47.9 million at the end of last fiscal quarter and compared to $62.1 million at June 30, 2025.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Accuray reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and the rules of the SEC. 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.
