Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results
Revenues for the third quarter of 2020 were $5.6 million, as compared to revenues of $7.5 million for the third quarter of 2019. Recurring revenues for the third quarter of 2020 were $3.8 million, as compared to recurring revenues of $6.0 million for the third quarter of 2019. Equipment revenues were $1.8 million for the third quarter of 2020, as compared to $1.5 million for the third quarter of 2019.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2020 was $3.2 million, or 57.5% of revenues, as compared to $4.6 million, or 61.8% of revenues, for the third quarter of 2019. Gross profit on recurring revenues for the third quarter of 2020 was $2.5 million, or 64.3% of revenues, as compared to $4.0 million, or 67.2% of revenues, for the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in gross profit is the result of lower sales due to the COVID-19 pandemic, fixed costs in manufacturing and the impact of the change in deferred revenues.
Selling and marketing costs for the third quarter of 2020 were $2.1 million, as compared to $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2019, primarily as a result of lower tradeshow costs, travel costs, compensation costs and direct to consumer advertising costs. General and administrative costs for the third quarter of 2020 were $1.9 million, as compared to $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2019, as a result of lower legal, accounting and consulting costs partially offset by higher insurance and stock compensation costs. Other expense for the third quarter of 2020 was $21,000, compared to $153,000 for the third quarter of 2019, as a result of lower interest expense due to refinancing of the Company’s long-term debt in December 2019.
Net loss for third quarter 2020 was $1.3 million, or a loss of $0.04 per basic and diluted common share, as compared to the net loss for the third quarter of 2019 of $0.9 million, or a net loss of $0.03 per basic and diluted common share.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company provides certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance, including non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and Gross Domestic Recurring Gross Billings.
The Company’s reference to these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared under current accounting standards, but is not a substitute for, nor superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance and to provide further information for comparative purposes.
Specifically, the Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results and business outlook. In addition, the Company believes non-GAAP measures enhance the comparability of results against prior periods. Reconciliation of the GAAP measures of net loss to non-GAAP measures included in this press release is as follows (in thousands):
