NasdaqGM:NNOX Earnings & Revenue History as at Jun 2026
NasdaqGM:NNOX Earnings & Revenue History as at Jun 2026

Losses Stay Large At Around US$14 Million Per Quarter

  • Net income excluding extra items was a loss of US$14.3 million in Q1 2026, sitting in a similar range to Q2 and Q1 2025, which were losses of US$14.7 million and US$13.2 million respectively, and compares with a much larger US$33.4 million loss in Q4 2025.
  • Bears argue that persistent losses and high costs could hold Nano-X Imaging back, and the numbers keep that concern in play:
    • Over the last twelve months, net income excluding extra items totaled a loss of US$76.0 million, which lines up with the bearish focus on ongoing high cash burn and delayed profitability.
    • Analysts in the cautious camp also point to slow commercial traction in imaging systems and AI solutions, and the reliance on teleradiology in past periods fits with the current picture of losses not yet being offset by higher margin product revenue.
For readers worried about how long this loss-making phase can continue, skeptics highlight these earnings as a real world stress test of their thesis. The bear case walks through that in detail in the 🐻 Nano-X Imaging Bear Case.

Forecast 43% Revenue Growth Versus Under 1 Year Cash Runway

  • Revenue is forecast to grow about 43.2% per year based on the trailing data, yet the company is reported to have under one year of cash runway. This sets the growth story against a tight funding backdrop.
  • Supporters of the bullish narrative see the strong revenue outlook as a sign that Nano-X Imaging can build toward a more profitable model, but the risk section of that same narrative shows the tension:
    • On the reward side, the 43.2% revenue growth forecast and a five year trend of modestly narrowing losses at roughly 2% per year are used to argue that scale can eventually improve margins.
    • On the risk side, the need for capital to cover losses and less than one year of cash runway are consistent with the idea that further funding, and potential dilution, could be required if that growth does not translate into better earnings quickly enough.

High 4.2x P/S Multiple Versus 0.9x Peers

  • Nano-X Imaging trades on a P/S of 4.2x, compared with 0.9x for peers and 1.3x for the broader US Healthcare industry, even though the company remains unprofitable on a trailing twelve month loss of US$76.0 million and a basic EPS loss of US$1.15 over the same period.
  • The analysts' consensus narrative flags that expectations embedded in the stock are high, and the current numbers illustrate why that matters:
    • Consensus price targets center around US$7.20 per share, which is far above the current price of US$0.88, yet the company is still expected to remain loss making for at least the next three years.
    • That gap between the 4.2x sales multiple and peer levels means a lot of weight is being put on future revenue and margin improvement, so each quarter of results like these becomes an important check on whether that optimism is still supported by the actual income statement.
