Joseph DeVivo, Butterfly’s President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman commented, “Butterfly opened the year with another strong quarter, coming in above consensus with 25% revenue growth and continued gross margin improvement. We are executing with discipline while continuing to invest in the vast opportunity ahead.”

DeVivo continued, “Our business is starting to come together around three growth engines. Point-of-care ultrasound is scaling globally. Home & Community Care is extending that capability into the patient environment. And Butterfly Embedded is expanding our technology beyond medical ultrasound into new modalities. These are not separate opportunities. They are all part of the same Butterfly platform, a single system that is beginning to work together and compound over time. We are still early, but the direction is clear, and we are building with focus and discipline to drive long-term growth.”

Recent Operational and Strategic Highlights:

  • Gestational Age AI Tool: Received FDA clearance and initiated rollout of blind-sweep AI tool for rapid fetal age estimation across U.S. and global health markets.
  • Butterfly Garden Ecosystem: Added two new partners, bringing the portfolio total to 30, while continuing to progress toward additional commercial-ready applications.
  • Compass AI™ and Enterprise Momentum: Closed first enterprise deal of the year and drove significant growth in the software pipeline since launching the next generation Compass AI solution.
  • Global Market Expansion: Advancing entry into new markets across the Americas and Asia, including high-growth regions such as Brazil, with iQ3 expansion in multiple countries.
  • Home & Community Care: Progressing toward first commercial agreement in the first half of 2026, with initial statewide deployment expected in the third quarter.
  • Butterfly Embedded™: Signed ninth company to the portfolio as of April 2026 and made meaningful development progress with existing partners.
  • Apollo Platform Development: Continued advancement of next-generation semiconductor architecture designed to significantly increase data processing and compute performance.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 Financial Results

Revenue: Total revenue was $26.5 million, representing growth of 25% from $21.2 million in the first quarter of 2025. U.S. revenue was $21.4 million, up 25% from prior year, primarily driven by revenue from our Butterfly Embedded™ partnerships, including our co-development partnership with Midjourney. International revenue increased 23% year-over-year to $5.2 million, largely resulting from increased probe sales in the current year to our distribution partners. Both our U.S. and international revenue also benefited from favorable shifts in our product sales mix towards our higher-priced iQ3 probes.

Gross margin: Gross profit was $18.3 million versus gross profit of $13.4 million in the prior year period. Gross margin increased to 68.9% compared to 63.0% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to the relatively higher margin return on our Butterfly Embedded™ licensing revenue, as compared to our core business offerings, as well as a reduction in software amortization costs for our historic software development investments.

Operating expenses: Operating expenses were $32.2 million, up 1% from $31.8 million in the prior year period. Total operating expenses excluding stock-based compensation and other expenses were $26.2 million, compared to $24.9 million in the first quarter of 2025, largely reflecting increased headcount in the current year from investments we’ve made in our internal capabilities throughout the past 12 months to support revenue growth as well as higher professional services costs.

Net loss: Net loss was $12.7 million, compared to $14.0 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA loss was $6.1 million, compared to $9.1 million in the prior year period.

EPS: EPS was $(0.05), compared to $(0.06) in the prior year period.

Adjusted EPS: Adjusted EPS was $(0.03), compared to $(0.04) in the prior year period.

Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents were $138.0 million as of March 31, 2026.

  • Revenue of $117 million to $121 million, or approximately 20% to 24% growth

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to providing financial measures based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we provide additional financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (“non-GAAP”). The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted net loss, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS. We present non-GAAP financial measures in order to assist readers of our financial statements in understanding the core operating results that our management uses to evaluate the business and for financial planning purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial performance over multiple periods.

The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are key performance measures that our management uses to assess our operating performance. These non-GAAP measures facilitate internal comparisons of our operating performance on a more consistent basis. We use these performance measures for business planning purposes and forecasting. We believe that these non-GAAP measures enhance an investor’s understanding of our financial performance as they are useful in assessing our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business.

The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate these measures in the same manner. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. When evaluating the Company’s performance, you should consider adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted net loss, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS alongside other financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, including gross profit, gross margin, net loss, and EPS.

The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. In this press release, we have provided reconciliations of gross profit and gross margin to adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin and of net loss and EPS to adjusted net loss, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP measures are not available on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the non-cash component of employee compensation expense, changes in our working capital needs, variances in our supply chain, the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be reflective, on a recurring basis, of our ongoing operations, and other such items without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our actual results may differ from our expectations, estimates, and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, our expectations with respect to financial results, revenue growth, future performance of our ultrasound business and Embedded opportunities (inclusive of co-development, revenue share/commercialization revenue, chip purchases, and/or chip licensing opportunities through the Embedded program), commercialization and plans to deploy our products and services, including expectations regarding the launches of our Compass AI software, Gestational Age AI Tool, our P5 and Apollo chips and fourth-generation technology, finalizing our first commercial Butterfly Home and Community Care agreement, development of products and services, and the size and potential growth of current or future markets for our products and services. Forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to us. These forward-looking statements involve significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside our control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: our ability to grow and manage growth effectively; the success, cost, and timing of our product and service development activities; the potential attributes and benefits of our products and services; the degree to which our products and services are accepted by healthcare practitioners and patients for their approved uses; our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval for our products, as applicable, and any related restrictions and limitations on the use of any authorized product; our ability to identify, in-license, or acquire additional technology; our ability to maintain our existing license, manufacturing, supply, and distribution agreements; the success, cost, and timing of our efforts to out-license our intellectual property to third parties; our ability to compete with other companies currently marketing or engaged in the development of ultrasound imaging devices, many of which have greater financial and marketing resources than us; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the size and growth potential of the markets for our products and services, and our ability to serve those markets, either alone or in partnership with others; the pricing of our products and services, and reimbursement for medical procedures conducted using our products and services; our estimates regarding expenses, revenue, capital requirements, and needs for additional financing; our financial performance; our ability to attract and retain customers; our ability to manage our growth effectively; our ability to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights; our ability to maintain the listing of our Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange; and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or in subsequent filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. We caution you not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. We do not undertake or accept any obligation or undertake to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
