SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ: ARAY) today reported its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 ended March 31, 2020.
Recent Company Highlights
-- Gross orders increased 27% year-over-year to $106.0 million, including
11 orders from China
-- Net orders of $76.7 million, an increase of 28% year-over-year
-- Total backlog increased 15% year-over-year to $569.9 million
-- Net revenue of $99.5 million, net income of $2.6 million, Adjusted
EBITDA of $11.3 million
"Despite the economic upheaval around the world, Accuray, from an operational standpoint, had a solid third fiscal quarter," commented Joshua H. Levine, president and chief executive officer of Accuray. "Gross orders increased 27% year-over-year to $106 million compared to $84 million in the comparable quarter last year. Order momentum was evident in all but one of our regions. The Americas delivered its third consecutive quarter of double-digit or higher, year-over-year revenue growth. Gross orders in Europe, the Middle East and Asia increased 15% on a year-over-year basis. Our sales team did a great job in generating new orders during the third quarter."
"Revenue in the third quarter totaled $99.5 million, despite seeing our revenue conversion timing impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the month of March, when travel restrictions and lockdowns in certain markets went into effect. As a result, we view the impact to revenue conversion of certain orders during the quarter as 'timing related'."
Mr. Levine continued, "In China, we booked 11 new orders across both Type A and B products, 7 of which were through our China joint venture. We are pleased with the progress that the joint venture has made both commercially and operationally."
"We ended the quarter with cash, cash equivalents, and short-term restricted cash totaling $92 million. We remain very focused on cash flow management in this current environment and have taken actions to reduce cash operating expenses without impacting the future commercial trajectory of the business or our ability to service our customers."

Withdrawal of 2020 Financial Guidance
Given the continued evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty surrounding its impact on the global economy and the healthcare industry, Accuray believes it is prudent to withdraw its previous full fiscal year 2020 financial guidance regarding revenue and adjusted EBITDA. The company is carefully monitoring the pandemic and the impact on its business; however, given the uncertainty regarding the pandemic's spread, duration, and impact, the company is currently unable to predict the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact its future operations and financial results.

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"). The calculation of adjusted EBITDA also excludes certain non-recurring, irregular and one-time items, including the non-cash, special gain related to Accuray's capital contribution to the China joint venture, a one-time accounts receivable impairment charge and costs associated with a one-time cost savings initiative and a non-cash reversal of deferred rent related to a lease termination. 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 income/(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 Accuray's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
