Business Wire Revenue increased 14% compared to prior year, growth in both Mass Spec and FTIR Acquired NIRLAB AG, expanding narcotics identification capabilities 908 Devices Inc. (Nasdaq: MASS), a core small-cap growth company focused on purpose-built handheld chemical analysis tools for vital health, safety and defense tech applications, today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. “We delivered a strong start to 2026, achieving 14% revenue growth and meaningful margin expansion,” said Kevin J. Knopp, CEO and Co-founder. “We are also excited to announce the acquisition of NIRLAB AG, a strategic transaction that broadens our reach into the lower-cost, widely-deployable segment of the narcotics detection market while increasing our recurring revenue opportunity through software subscriptions. This transaction reflects our focus on disciplined growth investments as we continue to execute our transformation strategy.” Recent Highlights Revenue of $13.4 million for the first quarter of 2026, increasing 14% year over year Recurring revenue was $4.0 million, representing 30% of total revenues for the quarter Gross margin was 51% and Adjusted gross margin was 57% for the first quarter of 2026, a 290-basis point improvement in Adjusted gross margin compared to the first quarter of 2025 Ended the quarter with a strong balance sheet, with a cash position of $111.7 million, consuming less than $1.5 million in the first quarter Subsequent to quarter end, acquired NIRLAB AG, bringing complementary drug detection capabilities, more international mix, and a high-retention recurring subscription model First Quarter 2026 Financial Results Revenue was $13.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a 14% increase over the prior year period, driven by an increase in product revenue for mass spec, from an increase in placements, and from a shift in FTIR product mix. OEM and funded partnership revenue was $0.6 million for the current and prior year period. The installed base grew 23% year-over-year to 3,903 devices, with 167 devices placed during the first quarter. Recurring revenue represented 30% of total revenues in the quarter. Gross profit was $6.9 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $5.5 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. GAAP gross margin was 51% as compared to 47% for the corresponding prior year period. Adjusted gross profit was $7.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $6.4 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. Adjusted gross margin was 57%, as compared to 54% for the corresponding prior year period. The increase in adjusted gross margin percentage was primarily driven by higher product revenues, including a shift in channel mix, along with the favorable impact of consolidated facilities, offset in part by lower service gross margins. Operating expenses were $19.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $16.6 million for the corresponding prior year period. The increase of $3.2 million includes a noncash increase of $3.9 million related to a change in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability, and a $0.7 million reduction of operating expenses related to research and development and selling, general, and administrative costs. Net loss from continuing operations was $12.0 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $9.8 million for the corresponding prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to a loss of $4.6 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $12.0 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to net income of $43.6 million for the corresponding prior year period. The income was related to the divestiture of our bioprocessing product portfolio which resulted in a gain of $56.6 million, net of transaction costs, and was also offset by a loss from discontinued operations for the first two months of the first quarter of 2025. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $111.7 million as of March 31, 2026, with no debt outstanding. 2026 Guidance 908 Devices now expects full year 2026 revenues to be in the range of $67.0 million to $70.0 million, representing 19% to 25% growth compared to 2025 revenue.

About 908 Devices 908 Devices is revolutionizing chemical analysis with its simple handheld devices, addressing life-altering applications. The Company’s devices are used at the point-of-need to interrogate unknown and invisible materials and provide quick, actionable answers in vital health, safety and defense tech applications, addressing the fentanyl and illicit drug crisis, toxic carcinogen exposure, and global security threats.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance To supplement the Company’s financial statements, which are presented on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance are included in this release and presented with detailed reconciliations to comparable GAAP financial results in the tables below: Adjusted gross profit is defined as gross profit excluding intangible amortization, acquisition and integration costs, restructuring charges (including the costs of severance), and non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation. Adjusted gross margin is defined as adjusted gross profit expressed as a percentage of total revenue. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations excluding other income, benefit for income taxes, depreciation, intangible amortization, acquisition and integration costs, restructuring charges (including the costs of severance), non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation, and costs associated with contingent consideration related to the Company’s acquisitions and for which the conditions for payment have not yet been achieved. The Company’s non-GAAP financial results presented in this earnings release exclude certain costs that management believes do not have a direct correlation to future business operations, nor do the resulting charges recorded accurately reflect the performance of ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are recorded, nor do the resulting charges recorded accurately reflect the anticipated cash flows of ongoing operations, and as such, excluding these costs allows management to understand and evaluate core operating performance and trends. However, as there are no standardized methods of calculating these non-GAAP financial measures, the Company’s methods may differ from those used by other companies in its industry, and accordingly, the use of these measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by others, thus limiting their usefulness for purposes of comparison. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures have certain limitations since they do not include the impact of certain expenses and cash flows that are reflected in the Company’s GAAP financial results. Accordingly, when analyzing the Company’s operating performance and guidance, investors should not consider non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed in addition to and not in lieu of reported GAAP financial results, provide investors with additional meaningful information to assess financial performance and trends, enable comparison of financial results between periods, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics utilized internally in analyzing and operating the Company’s business.
