1.b. Last Insights on RAY

RaySearch Laboratories AB faces challenges despite a 13% increase in net sales and 70% surge in order intake, as cash flow and currency headwinds impact its financials. The company's recent earnings call highlighted these concerns. Additionally, the European market's pullback, driven by overvaluation concerns in AI-related stocks, may affect investor sentiment. RaySearch's growth potential is notable, but it must navigate these challenges to sustain momentum, particularly with the release of new products like RayIntelligence v2025.

Publication Date: Nov -30

📋 Highlights
  • Record Net Sales:: Achieved SEK 332 million in Q3 2025, a 13% increase driven by 6 major particle center deliveries in Asia.
  • Operating Profit Growth:: Operating profit surged 44% to SEK 89 million with a 27% EBIT margin (31% adjusted), exceeding the 2026 target of 25%.
  • Recurring Revenue Dominance:: Recurring support revenue grew 8% to SEK 130 million, accounting for 39% of total revenues.
  • Order Intake Surge:: 70% increase in orders, with a 14% rolling 12-month growth and a strong book-to-bill ratio of 0.9.
  • Cash Position & Margin:: Cash balance of SEK 323 million (no loans) and a 96% gross margin, skewed by low hardware sales.

Business Highlights

The company saw a 70% increase in order intake, with many existing customers expanding their installations. RaySearch has a strong pipeline, with a book-to-bill ratio of 0.9 and a rolling 12-month growth rate of 14%. The company launched RayIntelligence, a cloud-based oncology analytics platform, and is working towards providing comprehensive cancer care solutions. The license sales were evenly split between the installed base and new customers, with a notable campaign allowing customers to use RayStation's functionality for a limited period being well-received.

Product and Customer Dynamics

About half of the new license sales to new customers came from converting Pinnacle clinics to RayStation, with the remainder coming from converting other systems, mainly Monaco and Eclipse. The company believes it has more than 50% of the accounts that are converting from Pinnacle. The revenue model for RayCare is similar to RayStation, with a license fee plus support revenue, but at a slightly higher price point based on patient volume or throughput.

Valuation and Outlook

With a P/E Ratio of 36.37 and an EV/EBITDA of 29.43, the market appears to have priced in significant growth expectations. Analysts estimate revenue growth of 12.4% for the next year. Given the company's strong performance, increasing EBIT margin, and potential for future revisions to its targets, the current valuation may be justified. RaySearch is well-positioned to benefit from the discontinuation of Philips' radiation therapy systems, and its ongoing integration efforts with other vendors' hardware, such as Varian's Halcyon, are expected to drive future growth.

Financial Position

The company's cash balance stood at SEK 323 million, with no loans, providing a solid foundation for future investments and growth initiatives. The gross margin was 96%, unusually high due to lower hardware sales. With a strong order pipeline and a confident outlook, RaySearch is poised to continue its growth trajectory, potentially revising its EBIT margin targets upward in the future.
