LAGUNA HILLS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Sonendo, Inc. (“Sonendo” or the “Company”) (OTCQX: SONX), a leading dental technology company and developer of the GentleWave® System, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Recent Highlights
“We are very encouraged by the early results of the strategic reset we embarked earlier this year,” said Bjarne Bergheim, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sonendo. “We are driving commercial discipline through a refined go-to-market strategy and we are exceeding our own timelines for delivering on gross margin expansion, all while dramatically reducing operating expenses and free cash flow burn through a leaner, more efficient organizational structure. Additionally, the increased reliability of the GentleWave® G4 System has improved the customer experience and enabled us to successfully re-engage our legacy customer base through upgrade programs while simultaneously expanding our new-customer base, both of which we expect to drive higher procedure instrument utilization and revenue in the long-term.”
Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Except as otherwise indicated, the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release exclude discontinued operations associated with the Company’s divestiture of its TDO practice management software segment in March 2024.
Total revenue was $8.3 million for the second quarter of 2024, a 5% decrease compared to second quarter of 2023. GentleWave console revenue totaled $2.4 million, a 9% increase compared to the second quarter of 2023, which was comprised of 35 upgrades and a 13 unit increase to the installed base. The Company’s installed base totaled 1,155 as of June 30, 2024. Procedure instrument revenue totaled $4.7 million, a decrease compared to $5.6 million for the prior year quarter. Other product revenue totaled $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2024, a $0.2 million year-over-year increase.
GAAP gross margin for the second quarter of 2024 increased to 37.5%, compared to a negative gross margin of 5.5% for the second quarter of 2023. During the second quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, the Company recorded in cost of sales $0.2 million and $2.9 million in excess and obsolete inventory charges related to recently discontinued products. Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) for the second quarter of 2024 was 40.7% compared to 28.7% for the prior year quarter.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $9.8 million, a $7.1 million reduction compared to the prior year period.
Operating loss totaled $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2024, a $10.7 million reduction compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) loss totaled $5.7 million, a $6.9 million reduction compared to the prior year period.
Net loss from continuing operations totaled $7.4 million for the second quarter of 2024, a $10.7 million reduction compared to the prior year quarter.
Free cash flow burn (non-GAAP), which the Company defines as the sum of net cash used in operating activities and purchases of property and equipment, totaled $(6.7) million for the second quarter of 2024, a $3.0 million improvement compared to the prior year quarter.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $24.2 million, and there were $20.5 million of principal payments outstanding under its term loan facility.
2024 Financial Guidance
For the full year 2024, the Company is increasing its expectations for total revenue from continuing operations to be in the range of $31 to $32 million, compared to previous guidance of $29 to $31 million.

About Sonendo
Sonendo is a commercial-stage medical technology Company focused on saving teeth from tooth decay, the most prevalent chronic disease globally. Sonendo develops and manufactures the GentleWave® System, an innovative technology platform designed to treat tooth decay by cleaning and disinfecting the microscopic spaces within teeth without the need to remove tooth structure. The system utilizes a proprietary mechanism of action, which combines procedure fluid optimization, broad-spectrum acoustic energy and advanced fluid dynamics, to debride and disinfect deep regions of the complex root canal system in a less invasive procedure that preserves tooth structure. The clinical benefits of the GentleWave System when compared to conventional methods of root canal therapy include improved clinical outcomes, such as superior cleaning that is independent of root canal complexity and tooth anatomy, high and rapid rates of healing and minimal to no post-operative pain. In addition, the GentleWave System can improve the workflow and economics of dental practices.
