SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Accuray Inc. (NASDAQ: ARAY) today reported its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 ended September 30, 2019.
Recent Company Highlights
"Our first quarter performance represented a solid start to our fiscal year with double digit gross order growth," said Joshua H. Levine, president and chief executive officer. "We are also very excited about Accuray systems named in 50 out of 58 Class A licenses recently awarded by the China National Health Commission which were announced on October 9, 2019. We need to remember that the process identified by the Ministry of Health requires a tender process following the license awards for all participating end user hospitals prior to being able to take receipt of a Type A device. This tender process has been put in place to define the transactional terms and conditions related to each hospital's equipment order and is not a competitive bidding situation that would result in changes in the specific device that the hospital has received the Type A license for. We expect that based on the timelines required for this tendering process, we would not begin to see revenue impact related to the China Type A awards until sometime in our fiscal 4th quarter, and we remain excited about the China market opportunity as a significant growth catalyst for our business."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Accuray has supplemented its GAAP net loss with a non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation ("adjusted EBITDA"). 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 schedule 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.
