Butterfly Network Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Joseph DeVivo, Butterfly's President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman commented, 'Quarter 2 marked one year since we launched Butterfly iQ3, and I'm pleased to say we achieved a new high – our strongest revenue quarter in Company history at $23.4 million. We also reached record gross margins of 64% and had our lowest cash use yet at $7.1 million. It's a real testament to the discipline of our team and the strength of our multi-pronged strategy – especially as we continue pushing toward breakeven in a challenging macro environment.'
DeVivo continued, 'As we look ahead, we remain focused on scaling our core business, while unlocking new revenue streams by leveraging our existing technology. Handheld ultrasound is becoming a foundational part of care delivery, and with our Compass AI software coming soon, as well as our P5 chip and fourth-generation technology on the horizon, we're poised to continue leading that shift. We will continue innovating across hardware and software to expand adoption and maximize the value of the platform we've built.'
Recent Operational and Strategic Highlights:
Butterfly Garden Growth: Two new partners were added to the portfolio in Q2, while three existing partners received FDA clearance for their AI-powered clinical applications: iCardio, HeartFocus by DESKi, and Deep Echo. HeartFocus expects to launch to Butterfly users in Q3, with the other applications launching shortly thereafter.
New Educational Resources: Butterfly released a new Aorta Exam Protocol on its ScanLab™ educational software, helping users learn to scan for conditions like abdominal aortic aneurysms. Additionally, through Butterfly Garden, the University of Rochester Medical Center launched MSK VUE, an AI-powered musculoskeletal ultrasound training app for Butterfly devices, designed to help clinicians identify key peripheral structures.
Clinical Research: New research from Tufts University published in European Heart Journal - Imaging Methods and Practice demonstrated that a machine learning model specifically trained to work on Butterfly iQ+ devices can accurately detect aortic stenosis. Additionally, the full findings from the Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital study previewed earlier this year have now been accepted into a prominent medical journal for publication in Q3.
Announcing Compass AI: Next-generation, cloud-based enterprise software platform is expected to launch in Q3, and aims to further optimize documentation processes through new, advanced AI tools and other enhancements like automated voice control to capture caregivers' notes and auto-populate fields in seconds.
Butterfly HomeCare Progress: Concluded pilot program, which demonstrated meaningful reductions in readmissions for congestive heart failure patients being managed at risk. The Company and partner are now working toward completion of their first commercial agreement, aiming to deploy the Butterfly HomeCare solution in the partner's first state before the end of the year.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Financial Results
Revenue: Total revenue was $23.4 million, up 9% from $21.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. U.S. revenue was $17.2 million, essentially flat to prior year, driven by the delivery of semiconductor chips to one of our Octiv partners and higher average selling prices, but partially offset by lower probe sales volume. International revenue increased 19% year-over-year to $6.2 million, driven by both price and volume due to the international launch of iQ3 during the third quarter of 2024.
Gross profit: Gross profit was $14.9 million versus $12.6 million in the prior year period. Gross margin increased to 63.7% from 58.6% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to the higher average selling prices and higher software and other services margins due to a reduction in software amortization and lower hosting costs.
Operating expenses: Operating expenses were $31.0 million, up 4% from $29.8 million in the prior year period. Total operating expenses excluding stock-based compensation and other expenses were $23.1 million, compared to $23.4 million in the prior year period, essentially flat to prior year.
Net loss: Net loss was $13.8 million, compared to $15.7 million in the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA loss was $6.2 million, compared to $8.1 million in the prior year period.
Adjusted EPS: Adjusted EPS was $(0.03), compared to $(0.05) in the prior year period.
Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents were $148.1 million as of June 30, 2025.
Guidance
Revised Revenue guidance and improved Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the Fiscal Year 2025:
Revenue of $92 million to $96 million or approximately 15% growth
Adjusted EBITDA loss of $32 million - $37 million
Chief Financial and Operations Officer Transition
Effective today, August 1, 2025, Heather Getz, Chief Financial and Operations Officer, has resigned to pursue other interests. Ms. Getz will assist the Company to ensure a successful transition of her responsibilities prior to her departure. Her resignation is not the result of any disagreement regarding the Company's operations, accounting, or other policies or practices.

Ms. Carlson has held various accounting and finance leadership positions at public companies in the SaaS and medical device industries and began her career in public accounting.

Butterfly has begun the process of engaging a search firm to assist in identifying Ms. Getz's replacement.
'On behalf of our employees and Board of Directors, I want to thank Heather for her more than three years of dedicated service. We value the discipline she instilled across the organization, and under her leadership Butterfly strengthened its balance sheet and delivered on its financial commitments to shareholders. We wish her every success in her future endeavors,' said Butterfly CEO Joseph DeVivo.

Megan's experience and deep understanding of our financial operations will be instrumental as we enter a new chapter for the company.'

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measures based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ('GAAP'), we provide additional financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP ('non-GAAP'). The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS. We present non-GAAP financial measures in order to assist readers of our financial statements in understanding the core operating results that our management uses to evaluate the business and for financial planning purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial performance over multiple periods.
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are key performance measures that our management uses to assess our operating performance. These non-GAAP measures facilitate internal comparisons of our operating performance on a more consistent basis. We use these performance measures for business planning purposes and forecasting. We believe that these non-GAAP measures enhance an investor's understanding of our financial performance as they are useful in assessing our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business.
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate these measures in the same manner. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. When evaluating the Company's performance, you should consider adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS alongside other financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, including gross profit, gross margin, net loss, and EPS.
The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. In this press release, we have provided reconciliations of adjusted gross profit to gross profit, adjusted gross margin to gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP measures are not available on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the non-cash component of employee compensation expense, changes in our working capital needs, variances in our supply chain, the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be reflective, on a recurring basis, of our ongoing operations, and other such items without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

The Biggest Takeaway From Coca-Cola's July 22 Earnings Report
Key Points Coca-Cola's revenue and earnings both beat analyst estimates in the fiscal 2025 second quarter. Thanks to a key competitive advantage, the company is able to consistently flex its pricing power. Dividend investors will likely find the stock a compelling portfolio addition. 10 stocks we like better than Coca-Cola › Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO) reported financial results for its second quarter (ended June 27) recently. The business exceeded Wall Street estimates, with revenue of $12.6 billion and adjusted earnings per share of $0.87 both coming in ahead of analyst expectations. Shareholders certainly like to see this kind of performance. However, finding the biggest takeaway from this beverage stock's July 22 earnings report requires investors to look past the headline figures. Instead, focus on something that matters over the long term. Here's what you should know about one of Coca-Cola's most attractive business qualities. Being able to ask customers to pay more Coca-Cola's organic revenue, which is a non-GAAP metric that excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and currency fluctuations, increased by 5% in the latest fiscal quarter. This figure was negatively impacted by concentrate sales, which declined 1%. But it was boosted by a 6% jump in price/mix. "Our price mix growth of 6% was primarily driven by approximately five points of pricing actions and one point of favorable mix," said CFO John Murphy on the Q2 2025 earnings call. This highlights what I believe is a key contributor to Coca-Cola's success: proven pricing power. This benefit arising from its ability to raise prices yet retain business comes up in virtually all of its earnings reports. During the first quarter of this fiscal year, price/mix growth was 5%. Famed investor Warren Buffett believes pricing power is one of the clearest signals that a company is high quality. This probably explains why Berkshire Hathaway is a massive shareholder in Coca-Cola. In Coca-Cola's case, the ability to consistently ask customers to pay more demonstrates just how powerful the brand is. This intangible asset is precisely what makes up the company's economic moat. And that supports Coca-Cola's staying power: The business has been around for well over a century. It has 200 different brands sold in more than 200 countries and territories. A whopping 2.2 billion servings are consumed every day. Coca-Cola has the leading market share in the industry. And consumers have come to expect a consistent product. Add in Coca-Cola's top-notch marketing campaigns, and the company has figured out a way to drive deep emotional connections with customers. This market positioning means that Coca-Cola will likely be able to continue increasing prices indefinitely. Of course, the price hikes must be within reason. But the point is that because consumers have developed an affinity to the brand, there is loyalty that Coca-Cola can keep leveraging over time. Don't expect huge returns from Coca-Cola Coca-Cola is a fantastic business thanks primarily to its pricing power and brand positioning. This has helped it generate robust profits, to the tune of $3.8 billion in net income in Q2. That translates to a net profit margin of 30%. The stock might be a wise investment choice for those who like to generate income from their holdings. Coca-Cola's strong profitability has allowed the leadership team to raise the dividend in a jaw-dropping 63 straight years, with the latest bump being approved earlier in 2025. Its dividend yield of 2.97% is well ahead of the 1.25% that the average company in the S&P 500 index pays. However, investors looking to score huge returns will want to think twice. The stock won't provide enough capital appreciation to outperform the market. Coca-Cola simply doesn't register huge growth. This is an extremely mature company. Its drinks are already sold in every corner of the world, with minimal opportunities to drive meaningful expansion. Shares have significantly underperformed the S&P 500 in the past decade. In the rare event that Coca-Cola's P/E multiple dips well below 20, investors shouldn't buy the stock. But those searching for dividend income will have a different view. Should you invest $1,000 in Coca-Cola right now? Before you buy stock in Coca-Cola, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Coca-Cola wasn't one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years. Consider when Netflix made this list on December 17, 2004... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $624,823!* Or when Nvidia made this list on April 15, 2005... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $1,064,820!* Now, it's worth noting Stock Advisor's total average return is 1,019% — a market-crushing outperformance compared to 178% for the S&P 500. Don't miss out on the latest top 10 list, available when you join Stock Advisor.

AI Adoption May Reprice Adobe, Amazon, Johnson Controls
Adobe (NASDAQ:ADBE), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Johnson Controls (NYSE:JCI) stand out in Morgan Stanley's latest thematic AI note as adoption shifts from experimentation to broad deployment. Even as AAPL slid, the firm's survey shows 60% of chief information officers expect generative AI workloads in production by the end of 2025, underscoring that digital and physical intelligence projects are moving into budgets and strategy. The note says adoption is rippling across major industries, accelerating operational efficiencies. The report says companies are using generative AI, automation and machine learning to trim supply chain friction, speed customer service, sharpen financial forecasting and accelerate research. Analysts led by equity strategist Michelle Weaver note that advances are blurring the lines between computation and execution, creating measurable gains in speed, accuracy and safety. The shift from pilots to scaled AI deployment could widen margins and reprice growth expectations for these names. Firms that show measurable execution may see risk premiums compress as investors reward clarity on efficiency gains. Investors will watch updates to CIO adoption surveys and any follow up from Morgan Stanley's thematic alpha series, especially changes in AI budget pacing. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
