What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- Record quarterly revenue of $6.9M with 43% YoY and 19% QoQ growth, driven by growing clinical adoption in the U.S. and Europe and expanded field sales .
- Gross margin remained strong at 54% despite overhead absorption from the new manufacturing facility; management expects leverage to improve margins as volumes rise .
- Clinical and product momentum: updated FLOSAT data presented; SOS severe OSA readout timeline reaffirmed for 1H 2024; next-gen RPMO2 device with embedded remote monitoring expected to see first commercial use in Q4 2023. CEO: “ProSomnus delivered record revenues… I am proud of our revenue growth which significantly exceeded expectations.”
What Went Wrong
- Operating expenses rose to $9.5M (+$5.5M YoY, +$2.3M QoQ), reflecting higher Sales & Marketing headcount, R&D for RPMO2, and elevated public-company G&A (audit, legal, compliance, staffing, facility) .
- Cash declined to $6.2M at quarter-end, tightening the cushion amid interest expense and sizable fair value-marked debt liabilities (senior and subordinated convertible notes) .
- Profitability remains dependent on non-operating fair value gains; core operations posted a $(5.74)M loss from operations despite revenue growth .

Earnings Call Themes & Trends
Management Commentary
- CEO Len Liptak: “ProSomnus delivered record revenues, significant revenue growth and strong organizational execution in the second quarter of 2023… I am proud of our revenue growth which significantly exceeded expectations…” .
- On clinical data and adoption: “Data presented by KOLs… associated ProSomnus devices with effective, safe, and patient-preferred treatment.”
- On margin durability: “With the increased facility costs the Company has maintained strong margins and expects to leverage this, and other expenses, as volumes increase thereby increasing gross margin.”
- On operating expense trajectory: “The Company’s G&A in the first half of 2023 was atypically high… expects its G&A expense to decrease in the second half of 2023 but… remain higher than 2022 levels.”
Q&A Highlights
- Q2 2023 earnings call transcript was not accessible due to a repository inconsistency; therefore, specific Q&A exchanges and guidance clarifications could not be retrieved [7:—]. Management indicated on the press release it would “provide updated financial guidance for the remainder of 2023” during the call .
Estimates Context
- Wall Street consensus estimates (S&P Global) were unavailable for OSA due to a missing Capital IQ mapping in our SPGI system; as a result, we cannot present an actual-vs-consensus comparison for revenue or EPS this quarter [SpgiEstimatesError for OSA].
- Management stated revenue “significantly exceeded expectations,” but no external consensus numbers were provided in filings; sell-side models may need to reflect higher volumes and sustained gross margin resilience .
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Revenue acceleration and stable gross margin signal durable demand and effective commercial execution; adoption in U.S./Europe is a core growth driver .
- Operating loss widened on deliberate growth investments and public-company costs; watch H2 for G&A normalization and margin leverage from scale .
- Profitability upside in Q2 was non-operating (fair value gains); core profitability hinges on scaling volumes and opex discipline .
- Liquidity tightened to $6.2M cash; monitor funding pathways, debt covenants, and interest expense as growth investments continue .
- Near-term catalysts: RPMO2 first commercial use in Q4 2023 and SOS initial readout in 1H 2024; favorable clinical data may support physician adoption and payer narratives .
- EVO product momentum from 2022 provides a base; continued evidence generation (FLOSAT/SOS) should help expand the addressable patient mix and support label strategy .
- Absence of consensus estimates reduces beat/miss signaling; investors should focus on sequential trajectory, margin resilience, opex normalization, and liquidity management in H2 .
