Management Commentary

“Our second-quarter results reflect strong execution and growing momentum, with positive trends including sequential growth in both surgical glaucoma ordering accounts and procedural utilization that mark meaningful progress as we strengthen our position as the market leader in implant-free MIGS,” said Paul Badawi, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Sight Sciences. “Our focus has been on equipping interventional eyecare providers with innovative technologies that enhance patient outcomes. As we enter the second half of 2025, these developments reinforce our confidence in our ability to deliver long-term value and elevate the standard of care for glaucoma and dry eye disease management.”

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $19.6 million, a decrease of 8% compared to the same period in the prior year. Surgical Glaucoma revenue was $19.2 million, a decrease of 5% compared to the same period in the prior year. This expected decline was due to a decrease in account utilization, which decreased by 11%, primarily due to coverage restrictions on the performance of multiple MIGS procedures in combination with cataract surgery for Medicare patients in most states, partially offset by higher ordering accounts and higher average selling prices. Dry Eye revenue was $0.3 million, a decrease from $1.1 million in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to fewer SmartLids® sales, which was a result of the Company’s focus on achieving reimbursed market access for TearCare procedures.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $16.6 million, compared to $18.3 million in the same period in the prior year. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2025 was 85%, down slightly compared to 86% in the same period in the prior year. Surgical Glaucoma gross margin in the second quarter of 2025 was 86%, compared to 88% in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher overhead costs per unit, tariff costs and product sales mix, partially offset by higher average selling prices. The Company incurred $0.1 million in Surgical Glaucoma cost of goods sold associated with tariffs in the second quarter of 2025. Dry Eye gross margin in the second quarter of 2025 was 38%, compared to 47% in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to product sales mix and higher overhead costs per unit.

Total operating expenses were $28.3 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing a 9% decrease compared to $31.0 million in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower legal expenses. Research and development expenses were $4.4 million, compared to $4.3 million in the same period in the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $23.9 million, compared to $26.7 million in the same period in the prior year, representing an 11% decrease. Adjusted operating expenses1,2 were $24.4 million, down from $26.6 million in the same period in the prior year, representing an 8% decrease.

Net loss was $11.9 million, or a loss of $0.23 per share, compared to a net loss of $12.3 million, or a loss of $0.25 per share, in the same period in the prior year.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $101.5 million and total long-term debt was $40.0 million (before unamortized discount and debt issuance costs) as of June 30, 2025, compared to $108.8 million and $40.0 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2025. Cash used in the second quarter of 2025 totaled $7.3 million, compared to $9.1 million in the same period in the prior year.

2025 Financial Guidance

Sight Sciences raises revenue guidance expectations for full year 2025 to $72.0 million to $76.0 million, representing a 5% to 10% decline compared to full year 2024 revenue, versus prior revenue guidance of $70.0 million to $75.0 million.

The Company reiterates adjusted operating expenses1,3 guidance for full year 2025 of $101.0 million to $105.0 million, representing an increase of 0% to 4% compared to adjusted operating expenses for full year 2024.

The Company has exposure to the tariffs imposed by the U.S. on China because most of its products are produced and assembled in China. Based on the current China tariff rate of 30%, revenue expectations by product, and inventory levels, the Company expects its Surgical Glaucoma segment’s unmitigated tariff exposure would increase the segment’s cost of goods sold by between $1.0 million to $1.5 million for full year 2025, down from the prior estimate of $3.5 million to $4.5 million.

The Company's full year 2025 financial guidance is forward-looking in nature, reflecting management’s expectations as of the date of this press release, and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties that limit its ability to accurately forecast results. This outlook assumes no meaningful changes to the Company's business or prospects, or to the risks and uncertainties identified by management that could impact future results, which include, but are not limited to: incremental or unanticipated changes in tariff policies or rates impacting our products or the medical device industry; changes to reimbursement coverage, payment decisions or reimbursement rates for our products; changes to product pricing or market share resulting from the evolving competitive landscape; unforeseen changes in regulatory requirements; and disruptions to or increased costs associated with our supply chain, including as a result of having a limited number of suppliers.

1 “Adjusted operating expenses” is a financial measure not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), and therefore such a measure, is a “non-GAAP financial measure”, and is calculated as operating expenses less stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, restructuring costs, and other one-time or non-recurring costs. Please see the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for additional information.

2 A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures has been provided in the table titled "Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation" attached to this press release.

3 Consistent with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations, the Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in reliance on the “unreasonable efforts” exception set forth in the applicable regulations, because there is substantial uncertainty associated with predicting any future adjustments that may be made to the Company’s GAAP financial measures in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating expenses, are presented in this press release to provide information that may assist investors in understanding the Company's financial and operating results. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are important performance indicators because they exclude items that are unrelated to, and may not be indicative of, the Company's core financial and operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures, as calculated, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be appropriate measures for comparing the performance of other companies relative to the Company. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. To the extent the Company utilizes such non-GAAP financial measures in the future, it expects to calculate them using a consistent method from period to period.
