Accuray Reports Financial Results for First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2014

Gross Orders Increase 17% Year over Year

SUNNYVALE, Calif., November 7, 2013 — Accuray Incorporated (Nasdaq: ARAY) announced today financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013.    Results are presented on a GAAP basis, unless otherwise indicated, as the magnitude of purchase accounting amortization was minimal for fiscal year 2013 and is projected to be minimal for fiscal year 2014 and beyond, making GAAP results comparable on a year over year basis and a good measure of the company’s performance.

First Quarter and Recent Highlights

·                  Continued strong order momentum with gross orders of $63.4 million, an increase of 17% from the first fiscal quarter of 2013.

·                  Gross profit margins improve 590 basis points, operating expenses decline 13% and adjusted EBITDA improves $8.1 million, all compared to the prior year first fiscal quarter.

·                  Over 100 oral and poster presentations at the 55th annual American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) meeting reinforcing clinical and quality of life benefits for the CyberKnife® and TomoTherapy® Systems.

“We had a strong start to the fiscal year with most elements of our performance being above our expectations, reflecting strong commercial and operational execution.  Orders into backlog are being driven by the actions we have taken to improve our commercial focus and enable growth through improved business processes.  We expect that product revenues will begin to strengthen over the next several quarters as well,” said Joshua H. Levine, president and chief executive officer of Accuray.  “Improving gross profit margins along with continued expense control in narrowing our adjusted EBITDA losses puts the business on a strong trajectory to achieve profitability, along with higher revenues.”

“We are enthusiastic about fiscal 2014 and the continued execution improvements which were started in the last fiscal year. Our reaffirmed guidance reflects an anticipation that we will return to year over year growth in revenues while the introduction of an adjusted EBITDA measure places our focus on driving the company to positive cash flow,” said Levine.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has supplemented its GAAP net loss with a non-GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA. 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 more meaningful comparison of results for current periods with previous operating results.  Additionally, it will assist management in analyzing future trends, making strategic and business decisions and establishing internal budgets and forecasts. A reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net loss (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) is provided in the schedule below.

There are limitations in using this non-GAAP financial measure because it is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.  This non-GAAP financial measure 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 the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measure provided in the schedule below.
