ELECTROCORE INC (NASDAQ:ECOR) reported its second-quarter 2025 financial results, revealing mixed performance relative to analyst expectations. While revenue slightly surpassed estimates, the company’s earnings per share (EPS) fell short, contributing to a sharp negative reaction in after-hours trading.
Key Financial Highlights
- Revenue: The company posted net sales of $7.38 million, a 20% year-over-year increase from Q2 2024. This figure narrowly exceeded analyst expectations of $7.36 million. Year-to-date sales reached $14.1 million, up 22% compared to the first half of 2024.
- Earnings Per Share (EPS): Reported EPS came in at -$0.35, worse than the estimated -$0.31, reflecting ongoing operational costs and investments in commercialization efforts.
- Cash Position: As of June 30, 2025, electroCore held $7.4 million in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities.
Market Reaction
The stock tumbled ~20.6% in after-hours trading following the earnings release, signaling investor disappointment despite the revenue beat. The market’s reaction appears primarily driven by the wider-than-expected loss per share, as well as broader concerns over profitability and cash burn. Over the past month, shares have declined ~13.2%, reflecting lingering skepticism about the company’s path to sustained profitability.
Forward-Looking Estimates
Analysts project Q3 2025 revenue at $7.98 million, with an estimated EPS of -$0.26. For the full year, sales are expected to reach $31.03 million, though EPS estimates remain in negative territory at -$1.26. The company did not provide explicit guidance in its press release, leaving investors to rely on external forecasts.
