In addition, the company provided an update on the previously announced Chief Financial Officer transition.

Preliminary Unaudited Fourth Quarter and Full-year 2025 Results

• Preliminary unaudited fourth quarter 2025 revenue is expected to be approximately $32.6 million, driven by:
  • The sale of 28,611 Light Adjustable Lenses (LAL™/LAL+®); representing a 10% increase in procedure volume compared to the third quarter of 2025; and
  • The sale of 25 Light Delivery Devices (LDD™s), expanding the installed base to 1,134 LDDs as of December 31, 2025.
• Preliminary unaudited 2025 fiscal year revenue is expected to be approximately $134.5 million, versus November guidance of $125 to $130 million, reflecting:
  • The sale of 109,615 LALs, representing a 12% increase in procedure volume compared to 2024; and
  • The sale of 163 LDDs.
• Preliminary unaudited cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2025, are expected to be $228.1 million.
• Audited full-year 2025 financial results and full-year 2026 guidance will be announced in conjunction with the company's fourth quarter earnings release in February.

“Procedure trends during the quarter reflected a continued, measured pace of stabilization and recovery, and we remain encouraged by strong engagement across the field as our unified commercial team deepens customer relationships,” said Ron Kurtz, Chief Executive Officer and President of RxSight. “Despite headwinds in 2025, our team made meaningful progress, enabling us to treat more patients than ever before. With more than 1,100 LDDs installed, approximately 10% share of the premium IOL market, and adoption by over 25% of U.S. cataract surgeons, we exited the year in a strengthened position for sustained, long-term growth.”

New Chief Financial Officer

The company is also pleased to announce that Mark Wilterding has been appointed Chief Financial Officer, effective January 11, 2026. Mark will report to Ron Kurtz and will be responsible for overseeing the company's finance organization.

His leadership and expertise will be particularly valuable as we continue to position RxSight for the future.”

In this role, he oversaw investor relations, financial planning and analysis, treasury, financial operations and strategy, and regional finance teams.

He received a B.A. in economics from St. Olaf College and an M.B.A. from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University.
