CEO Review
Dear Shareholders,
During the second quarter, Optomed continued its transition toward a more recurring and AI-enabled business model. While revenue remained below the comparison period, the underlying quality of our business improved significantly. We delivered a record gross margin, substantially improved profitability, strengthened operating cash flow and continued to increase our recurring AI-related revenue. These achievements demonstrate that our strategic transition towards a more scalable and predictable business model is progressing well.
Our Devices business continued its transformation from traditional camera sales towards recurring AI-enabled screening solutions. Aurora AEYE deployments expanded further in the United States, while recurring revenue from Optomed Lumo and our AI-enabled services continued to grow. Although traditional camera sales remained below the comparison period, the increasing share of recurring revenue improved the quality of our revenue mix and supported a significant expansion in gross margin.
The financial impact of this transformation is becoming increasingly visible. Group gross margin improved to a record 71.3%, while EBITDA loss was reduced by approximately 50% despite lower revenue. Our Devices segment moved close to EBITDA breakeven during the quarter, demonstrating the operating leverage created by the growing contribution from recurring and AI-enabled revenue, an improving revenue mix and disciplined cost management. At the same time, our Software segment once again delivered strong profitability with an EBITDA margin of approximately 20%, providing a stable earnings base for the Group. Together with the continued growth in recurring revenue and the approximately USD 2.1 million U.S. order expected to be delivered in Q3, this provides a stronger profitability foundation for the second half of the year.
Another encouraging achievement during the quarter was the significant improvement in operating cash flow. Lower operating losses together with favorable working capital development substantially reduced cash consumption compared to the previous year. This demonstrates that our actions to improve operational efficiency are delivering tangible results while preserving our ability to invest in future growth.
The first half of the year was influenced by temporary uncertainty in the U.S. diabetic retinopathy screening market following reimbursement discussions. Nevertheless, customer engagement remained strong, Aurora AEYE deployments continued to increase and the long-term market opportunity remains highly attractive. Importantly, during the quarter we received an order worth approximately USD 2.1 million from a U.S. screening service provider and distributor. The order is expected to be delivered during the third quarter and provides a strong start for our Devices business in the second half of the year.
We maintain our full-year guidance. The approximately USD 2.1 million order supports the Devices business in the second half of the year, and we remain focused on commercial execution, recurring revenue growth and disciplined cost management.
The positive transformation of Optomed continues to gain momentum. We are building a company with a stronger recurring revenue base, structurally higher margins and improving profitability while addressing one of the world's fastest-growing healthcare needs through AI-enabled eye screening. While quarterly revenue may fluctuate during this transition, we believe the long-term earnings potential and value creation opportunity of our business continue to strengthen.
I would like to sincerely thank our customers, partners, shareholders and, above all, our employees for their continued trust, commitment and dedication. Together, we are building a stronger Optomed with an increasingly scalable business model and an exciting future ahead.
Sincerely,
Juho Himberg
CEO
Outlook 2026
