The earnings call summary shows improved revenue and gross loss, but the company still operates at a loss with cost management challenges and reliance on service revenue. The Q&A reveals macro uncertainties and vague management responses about profitability timelines. The lack of a share buyback program and the absence of strong guidance further dampen sentiment. Overall, despite some positive revenue growth, concerns about financial health and competitive pressures lead to a negative outlook.
Total Revenue $2.9 million, a 29% increase from $2.3 million in Q1 2024, driven by growth in service revenue and product revenue.

Product Revenue $809,000, a 44% increase from $563,000 in Q1 2024, primarily due to new distribution partnerships.
Gross Loss $700,000, an improvement from a loss of $1.4 million in Q1 2024, driven by savings in total cost of revenue.
Cost of Revenue $3.6 million, slightly lower than $3.7 million in Q1 2024, primarily due to savings from one-time scrap fees.
