NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Specialty cancer diagnostics company Precipio, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRPO), announces financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
Below are some of the key financial performance metrics for the Company. Please see the Company’s Form 10-Q which was filed today for additional details.
- Revenue – $6.71M (vs. $6.69M in Q4-2025; $4.93M in Q1-2025). This was comprised of $6.05M in pathology revenue (up from $5.9M in Q4) and $0.66M in product revenue (down from $0.74M in Q4). The product revenue decline is temporary, and was largely driven by delayed shipment to one of the Company’s largest product customers, shifting revenue recognized to Q2.
- Adjusted EBITDA – $(0.16) million (vs. $0.96 million in Q4 2025). The change was driven by several factors highlighted below, and which will be addressed in more detail on the Company shareholder call on Monday, May 18th.
- Pathology gross profit decreased due to CMS cuts ($125K)
- Product gross profit decreased ($280K), largely due to a customer request to delay shipment to Q2
- Increased cost due to hiring of product business development team ($250K impact)
- Q4-2025 had a one-time benefit due to year-end reversal of management annual bonus accruals (~$360K)
- Cash flow – Cash Flow from operations was positive $60,000; total cash burn was $47,000. This was largely driven by two factors:
- Annual bonus payments and beginning-of-year expenses for various service agreements
- Slower collections due to patient deductible resets at the start of the year
“I think this quarter is a good example of how to properly assess non-commercial fluctuations in our business,” said Ilan Danieli, CEO of Precipio. “While revenue is flat, that is largely a function of timing. The underlying business fundamentals continue to grow, in particular the product pipeline that has been generated by our newly hired commercial team.”
Additional information and a more in-depth discussion on the Company’s Q1-2026 performance will be provided in the shareholder call on May 18th, 2026, at 5 PM ET. The call will include remarks on the Company’s core business as well as a moderated Q&A session at the end of the Company’s remarks.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation and Explanation
EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely used to evaluate operational performance and pre-tax profitability of emerging growth companies like ours. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with a useful perspective on the Company’s financial health, particularly where non-cash amortization has an important impact on profitability.
Adjusted EBITDA as we define it modifies EBITDA by excluding the non-cash costs of employee stock options and unusual non-operating income and expense. Below is a reconciliation of Net Income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2026 and 2025:
