Key Takeaways

  • QT Imaging generated Q2 2026 revenue of $7.4 million, up 103% from $3.7 million a year earlier, driven primarily by shipments of 15 Breast Acoustic CT scanners versus 8 in Q2 2025.
  • Gross margin declined to 41% from 50%. Management said the Q2 2026 margin was consistent with its projections for U.S. sales, while the prior-year period benefited from lower weighted-average inventory costs.

  • Management reaffirmed approximately $39 million in 2026 revenue guidance, based on distributor minimum order quantities and expected direct-sales contributions.
  • QT Imaging plans to ship 15 scanners in the U.S. during Q3 and 17 during Q4. Management expects placements to increase across the second half.
  • Cash and restricted cash totaled approximately $14.2 million as of August 7, 2026, following collection of the $7.4 million in accounts receivable reported at June 30.
