Accuray Reports Continued Growth in Second Quarter of Fiscal 2008
Fourth Consecutive Quarter of Record Revenue and Backlog
SUNNYVALE, Calif., January 30, 2008– Accuray Incorporated (Nasdaq: ARAY), a global leader in the field of radiosurgery, today announced financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2008, ended December 29, 2007.
For the second quarter of fiscal 2008, Accuray reported total revenue of $52.0 million, a 98 percent increase over second quarter fiscal 2007 total revenue of $26.3 million.
Net income for the quarter ended December 29, 2007 was $2.3 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $7.3 million, or a loss of $0.45 per share, during the same period last year. Shares used in computing fully diluted earnings per share were 61.3 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2008.
Non-cash, stock-based compensation charges for the second fiscal quarter of 2008 were $4.3 million or $0.07 per diluted share.
For the period ended December 29, 2007, backlog increased to approximately $660 million, with approximately $365 million associated with CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System contracts and approximately $295 million associated with services and other recurring revenue. Accuray’s backlog is composed of firm, signed contracts that the company believes have a substantially high probability of being recognized as revenue.
Accuray’s cash balance at the end of the quarter was $187.5 million.
For the six months ended December 29, 2007, total revenue was $100.7 million, a 70 percent improvement over the $59.1 million in total revenue during the same period last year. Net income for the first half of fiscal 2008 was $4.6 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $5.3 million, or a loss of $0.33 per share, for the first half of fiscal 2007.
“Accuray continues to experience record-setting growth, with our fourth consecutive quarter of increasing revenue and backlog. This sustained growth is a testament to the impact that the CyberKnife System is having on meeting the demands for extracranial radiosurgery, particularly prostate and lung cancer,” said Euan S.

Thomson, Ph.D., president and CEO of Accuray. “While this was a positive quarter with respect to revenue and backlog growth, we believe that broader credit market issues are having a short-term impact on some of our U.S. customers’ purchase and installation timelines, as obtaining financing has become more difficult. We remain confident in the clinical demand for the CyberKnife and our ability to further build the market for extracranial radiosurgery.”
Outlook
The following statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Based upon current economic conditions, specifically the tightening of credit markets in the United States, Accuray is adjusting revenue guidance for fiscal 2008 to be in the range of $210 million to $230 million, which would represent revenue growth of 50 percent to 64 percent over fiscal 2007.
