Biggest changeThere are now over 1,900 peer reviewed publications supporting use of the CyberKnife System in the treatment of various targets, including cancers, benign tumors, or functional diseases. Radiosurgery is a commonly used procedure among neurosurgeons, specializing in radiosurgery, who require the high level of precision found with surgery yet want to offer their brain tumor patients a non-invasive option.
Biggest changeRadiosurgery is a commonly used procedure among neurosurgeons, specializing in radiosurgery, who require the high level of precision found with surgery, yet want to offer their brain tumor patients a non-invasive option. With more than two decades of clinical evidence, the CyberKnife System offers distinct advantages in the treatment of diseases in the head, base of the skull, and spine.
The system includes disease-specific tracking and treatment delivery solutions for brain, spine, lung and prostate tumors, improvements in treatment speed as compared to earlier systems, more options to configure the treatment room, and expanded number of nodes leading to more coverage and minimizing dose to healthy tissue.

Our solutions: Novel artificial intelligence driven radiation therapy systems that automatically adapt treatment delivery for targets that move, synchronizing the radiation beam with the target’s motion in real-time throughout treatment delivery. Powerful treatment planning software and optimizer reduces the time to create high quality treatment plans and the time it takes to deliver patient treatments as compared to the prior planning software, so clinicians can treat more patients each day. One-of-a-kind imaging solution designed to produce exceptional diagnostic-like quality CT images, quickly and cost-effectively. Automated tools help to identify the interfraction changes for which re-planning is clinically beneficial and facilitate adaptation of the radiation dose precisely to the patient’s tumor. Distinctive software accelerates and automates the re-planning process to make re-treatment of a previously irradiated area more efficient for practices and more effective for patients.

Risk Factors — what could go wrong, per management

Biggest changeIf we are unable to anticipate or keep pace with changes in the marketplace and the direction of technological innovation and customer demands, our products may become obsolete or less useful and our operating results will suffer. International sales of our products account for a significant portion of our revenue, which exposes us to risks inherent in international operations. Enhanced international tariffs that affect our products or components within our products, other trade barriers or a global trade war could increase our costs and materially and adversely affect our business operations and financial condition. The ongoing military action between Russia and Ukraine, and the global response to it, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We face risks related to the current global economic environment, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we encounter manufacturing problems, or if our manufacturing facilities do not continue to meet federal, state or foreign manufacturing standards, we may be required to temporarily cease all or part of our manufacturing operations, which would result in delays and lost revenue. If we are unable to develop new products or enhance existing products to meet our customers’ needs and compete favorably in the market, we may be unable to attract or retain customers. If we do not effectively manage our growth, our business may be significantly harmed. We could become subject to product liability claims, product recalls, other field actions and warranty claims that could be expensive, divert management’s attention and harm our business. 29 Table of Contents Our reliance on single‑source suppliers for critical components of our products could harm our ability to meet demand for our products in a timely and cost effective manner. The inflationary environment could materially adversely impact our business and results of operations. We depend on key employees, the loss of whom would adversely affect our business. Disruption of critical information technology systems, infrastructure and data or cyberattacks could harm our business and financial condition. Any actual or perceived failure by us to comply with legal or regulatory requirements related to privacy, cyber security and data protection in one or multiple jurisdictions could result in proceedings, actions or penalties against us. The safety and efficacy of our products for certain uses is not yet supported by long‑term clinical data, and our products may therefore prove to be less safe and effective than initially thought. Third parties may claim we are infringing their intellectual property or that we are operating outside the scope of or violating a license or other agreement relating to their intellectual property, and we could suffer significant audit, litigation or licensing expenses, incur liabilities associated with indemnification obligations to customers, experience disruptions in the supply for components of our product or related services, or be prevented from selling our product or components of our product. It is difficult and costly to protect our intellectual property and our proprietary technologies and we may not be able to ensure their protection. Because the majority of our product revenue is derived from sales of the CyberKnife and TomoTherapy platforms, which have a long and variable sales and installation cycle, our revenues and cash flows may be volatile and difficult to predict.

The military conflict in Ukraine has led to an unprecedented expansion of sanction programs imposed against Russia by the United States, Canada, the EU, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and Japan, among others, that in relevant part, impose sanctions against some of the largest state-owned and private Russian financial institutions (and their subsequent removal from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) payment system) and certain Russian businesses, some of which have significant financial and trade ties to the EU, making it increasingly difficult to transfer money from Russia to other countries.

Furthermore, certain parts required for the manufacture and servicing of our products are scarce and becoming increasingly difficult to source even at increased prices. If such parts become unavailable to us, we would not be able to manufacture or service our products, which would adversely impact revenue, gross margins, and net income (loss).

Further, the imposition of additional tariffs by the U.S. could result in the adoption of additional tariffs by China and other countries, as well as further retaliatory actions by any affected country. Any resulting trade war could negatively impact the global market for medical devices, including radiation therapy devices, and could have a significant adverse effect on our business.
