The Company has outlined its financial expectations for the full year 2025, projecting a gross margin of about 64.5%. However, if current global tariff rates persist, the gross margin could face a headwind estimated at approximately $5.0 million. This would effectively decrease the margin by about 150 basis points from the anticipated 64.5% baseline. The majority of this impact is expected to occur in the latter half of 2025.
Despite potential challenges, the Company remains firm on its earlier guidance regarding operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA. For 2025, total operating expenses are predicted to reach around $300 million, while the adjusted EBITDA is forecasted to result in a loss of $35 million. These projections remain consistent with previous guidance provided by the Company.
